Android Cupcake update planned for T-Mobile G1 in Germany


It’s been over four months since we first heard about Google’s Cupcake development branch. A lot of bloggers, developers, and Android fans have been wondering if T-Mobile would ever bring the update to the T-Mobile G1. Well… we have great news for you. T-Mobile will be pushing out the update to the G1 some time in May. Before you get too excited, we only have confirmation that the update will be available for T-Mobile customers in Germany. T-Mobile has put up a page on their German website with information about the update, noting that it will be pushed out to your German T-Mobile G1 handset when it’s available.

If you check out the page you’ll also see a somewhat curious "Important Note" that informs users that there are software updates on various internet forums and they note that it is not recommended to install these updates since they may not "fit" your G1 just right. I’d imagine that T-Mobile is referring to the G and H Haykuro HTC Magic builds I tested out last week. Below are a few of the new cupcake feature that will be pushed out in the new Android 1.5 software update.

  • Video recording and playback
  • Pictures and video include one-click Picasa and YouTube uploads
  • Automatic adjustment of the touchscreen when the G1 is held horizontal or vertical
  • Support for Bluetooth stereo headsets
