Gingerbread?

[LCW]

Anyone know if the G2 will get Gingerbread - whether official or unofficial? Will the hardware even support it?

It's a brand new phone, of course the hardware will support it.

According to the hardware requirement specs (atleast as of right now); NO the G2 does not meet minimum hardware requirements.

According to several articles, Gingerbread will require a 1ghz proc. or higher. The G2 has an 800mhz. SO unless something changes, or someone build a custom ROM to port over...

The HTC G2 will more than likely see 3.0. that minimum spec sheet from that website is pure speculation.

Ahh, good call, your right I havent looked into it much but it looks like the ighz rumor was busted. Good new to g2 owners, and maybe myself if I get one.

I'm very positive that the G2 will given it's Google's baby. It runs 800+ out of the box but you can overclock it to 1.4ghz and stable too. Mine's running at ~1.4ghz at the moment. Some have it running higher without a hitch.

Did he mention that his is running at 1.4? Or am I just imagining that it is stated in every thread?

Don't forget, it's stable too!

Sorry about the oversight on my part - my bad !

Just wanted to point out that the author at unwired went back and updated his post saying he was incorrect about it be a minimum and that it is actually only the recommended specs.

I still have MS Vista, my point being that 7 offered little to entice me. If Gingerbread is going to be pushed to the phone, I guess I will use it. If it offers something I want enough, I will download it. But
getting it "to be one of the first" will not be a priority for me.
