Rogers LG Eve To Receive Android 1.6 This Spring

Just a brief note this morning for Rogers LG Eve owners.

LG Canada has posted on their Twitter page that they plan to push out Android 1.6 to all Rogers LG Eve owners this Spring 2010.

“LG will release an upgrade to Android 1.6 OS for the LG Eve this Spring, for Rogers customers.(Available for download on Rogers/LG websites)”

The update will be available on both the LG support site and Rogers Wireless support site. No exact date was mentioned beyond the “Spring” time frame, so stay tuned.

    That's good news, because Rogers previously said that they would never update the LG Eve. Too bad I already turned down an Eve that was offered to me because it would never have 1.6.

    Yes! I hope the updating doesnt get rid of my data, i like my data. If it does are there anyways to painlessly backup fast?

    heyy im thinking about buying a new phone and lg eve looks like the phone i want to buy. should i buy it? rogers is saying that it is going to update to 1.6 so i guess thats great news!…so should i purchase it on a 3yr plan?

    I personally think that all phones should be unlokced and now have to deal with this updating crap. I know its buisness and these companies want to make $$. But you would think that they also want customers right?

    I got my LG Eve from Rogers about a week ago.. I do suggest getting one except for the fact that it does freeze up sometimes.. :S Not a major deal though. Where I went to get my phone they told me that i can only get the LG Eve on a 3 year contract not sure why though, probably because the phone is so expensive hope I could help.

    I just got off the phone with Rogers, and there’s apparently no update for the LG Eve at rogers. Not in hand, not in the works. According to their tech support, it’s dead at 1.5.

    Rogers is clueless. LG Customer Service says that Rogers is currently testing OS 1.6 and will be available soon for download from the LG Website (not sure why Rogers won’t be making it available…wonder if that means it won’t be supported)? Not sure I trust LG – since they’ve been promising 1.6 since spring. Their customer service has been promising 1.6 this October 2010, but since the month is almost over, I am at least hoping that I can get my hands on it before the end of the year…

    Load up Openetna 2.2. I rocks. The phone has way more power than 1.5 indicates. I’ve got games that wouldn’t run before and the UI is world’s ahead
