Zio update!

[panini :Dxoxoxox]

The Zio has a faster processor than the Ascend.

It's taking so long for the update. It's crazy. Sprint has the phone with 2.1, why is it taking so long for cricket to get it?

[LTN-GNX]

yes im downloading it also

[jadziakl]

Quick question, when we finally do update to 2.2 will this erase all are apps & contacts that are already on the phone? Thanks

But is bottlenecked by the old OS and a fubared touch screen? All signs point to ascend so far.

I am not a cell phone guru, flasher etc....just a guy who had troubles with a phone and received help through PM's from a cool guy on this forum. (you know who you are, Hello by the way ! )

I check in now and then as I ended up buying a Zio and am watching for update help and figure you guy's will know first :clapping:

I wrote a flaming letter to Kyocera reguarding this subject, I am not going to include my letter but I will copy and paste their response.

Take it for what it is, a company trying to get me to shut up and make me happy, will it happen, I think so and the more of you who write in the better. :2thurabs:

Here is the reponse, I found it funny they got my name wrong when it is all over my e-mail !!

I think it's Cricket holding off on it since they want to charge for tethering. And obviously one of the features of 2.2 is the mobile HotSpot.
