We Must Ignore the Troll. Laugh contently to ourselves, but not add fuel to his tiny little fire.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cricketkilla:
Yes we must let spazz tell us what to do with ourselves because he has the 24 sided dice.. meh he probably dont have a g-friend ..sigh.. i have a decent job, a big house, a fast car, and a little too much time ..i also have this crappy zio phone that i hope will get better next week...but i doubt it.. now please add another can of gas ..you must feed the troll .. why because he is funnier than fck ....

freenode channel geek irc(zzzz)

Im not a geek but i play one on xda
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
So...you have this decent job, big house, fast car...but for some reason this phone that according to you is crappy. How uncharacteristic of everything else you claim to have (which not surprising at all does not include a girl)

I'll leave the rest up to everyone's own bull **** detector.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cricketkilla:
well shes sittin right here buddy. i dont need to prove anything...why are you so angry anyways i just dont get it....FEED THE TROLLS &the guy that said 2.2 is 10 times faster than 2.1 .. well i dont buy that ..does any1 else?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
Oh, no I am sure she is. I mean after all, no one here would have any reason to think that you would make exaggerations or untrue statements right? No, so like I said, I will leave everyone elses bull **** detector up to them...:)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cricketkilla:
Please no profanity :( sometimes young kids read these threads and im pretty sure it violates xda rules
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
10 times is a bit of an exaggeration. If I recall, some benchmarks place it at about 450% faster.

Sorry, that was 4.5 times faster than 2.1, perhaps 10 times faster than 1.6. Don't really know.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cricketkilla:
well thats faster than i thought even..it will be pretty sweet if this zio gets its 'governor' /'training wheels' taken off..any word if mutli-touch?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] blackops1125:
No multi-touch, And your right about 4.5 times over 2.1, god knows what it is over 1.6.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Benchmarks show 2.2 is 550% faster than 1.6

[Kyocera Zio M6000] Sorry_8D:
Why hasn't this firmware already been hacked and upgraded? Is there just not the interest in the Zio? Or is it just that difficult to hack? I am honestly asking because I don't know. It seems like every other phone has custom firmware available.... Why not the Zio?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] turbo_1327@yahoo.com:
new zio

Im sure when the new update is out there will be modded roms made for it i think everyone was waiting till then to do it!!! :)
[Kyocera Zio M6000] pyraxiate:
Research to get your answers

Not to be an A$$, but had you looked even a little bit, the developers DID start working on a ROM, however, there was no point at all in building something ( 2.1 is what they were working on ) when a newer version was supposed to have been on its way out. No point in continue building 2.1 when 2.2 was supposed to be released by now. They have postponed the rollout so many times. Its as if they were intentionally thwarting an unofficial release by continually promising that one was coming.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cricketkilla:
Ya maybe ..or maybe it was because nobody knows how and secondly, maybe its because no one believes it will come out

:mad:
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cricketkilla:
Or just maybe its because nobody has the smarts to do it on here ..lol,, Wheres watson from jeopardy when we need em.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Since Kyocera refuses to release the source, it makes it much more difficult to build our own.

Doesn't matter now anyway, my phone just updated to 2.2 a couple hours ago, OMG, it's so fast now!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] mattpedigo:
I smell a hint of sarcasm there... That or you're just teasing all the subscribers.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] GamerJake0:
fell for it =.= no update.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
Methinks you checked though. I know I did. :D
[Kyocera Zio M6000] mattpedigo:
Oh, of course I did... I'm beginning to feel like a bit of a beggar. The funny thing is that rationally, I know it's really not that big of a deal. I own 4 computers, one I recently built with a nice little SSD and 6-core processor so if I need to do any sort of "fast" processing, I can sit in my comfortable chair and do it.

I have an Xbox so if I want to be laze around and play games on my couch, I can.

I have a nice trustworthy Sony-Ericson phone for work so if I want reliable, I have it on a much better network than Cricket.

But darn it, I've been pulled into the world of 1.5 vs 1.6 vs 2.0 vs 2.1 vs 2.2. My girlfriend is looking into phones now and I had one recommendation... Windows phone.

This Droid stuff is great and all but let's be honest. It's a cesspool of a market, there are a zillion choices for phones which seems good... But think of it this way: Both Iphone and Windows phones can play Netflix. Droid isn't close to that yet.

So I guess it amounts to this. I like this phone, would like it much better with the update, but perhaps I should take a moment and remember, it's just a phone. I have a good life that allows me to have so many lovely possessions. That should prevent me from constantly checking for updates... Which I admittedly do.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
You must not like your girlfriend very much. Personally, I wouldn't recommend a Windows phone even to my worst enemy.

What makes Linux/Android so worthwhile, is that updates actually improve performance. When was the last Windows release that made older hardware actually work better?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] rosco77:
I agree. I think a person would be better off shooting themselves than subjecting themselves to Microsoft. That's why I have a PS3.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] 68mustangjim:
suppose to be out today but just More misinformation NOT AT STORES YET.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] mattpedigo:
Ummm... Windows 7?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
LOL are ya kidding me?

My ati all in wonder card was not compatible, as well as my remote wonder.

None of my backup video cards work either (older nvidia pci cards).

Also have a wireless g pci card that's incompatible.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] cricketkilla:
Ugh windows phone ...really ...expect a breakup by easter if you get her that phone. Netflix... eh im not gonna wanna watch a whole movie on my phone..unless the phone has a screen stretcher
[Kyocera Zio M6000] oconnorfamilyof4:
We are supposed to vd getting netflix about the time the xoom comes out I thought. And windows phone sucks all versions of it. Before my zio i had a touch pro running android lol as buggy as it was it was still better.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] phazei:
Actually, Win7 does seem to run better on my system than XP. Vista ****ed my system and I only used the pre-release for an hour before banishing it for life. After Win7 was out a year I tried and it haven't looked back. It's possible the increase because of 32bit XP to 64bit Win7, but regardless, it is actually an improvement.

The 2.2 update I got a couple hours ago also showed a pretty big improvement.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] LiuAnshan:
Pics or it didn't happen.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
Please note, everyone: I did use the disclaimer, "on older hardware". One of the big moneymakers for M$, is getting ppl to upgrade their h/w. They have all kinds of contracts with various h/w vendors. It also helps them to control what h/w is designed for, and what it comes preloaded with.

Open source software upgrades typically allow one to do more with what one has, rather than compel one to get more to use it.

Doesn't account for every instance, just a prevailing trend based on my own observations.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] PhayzR:
So.... back to the original topic......

Has anyone seen/heard of any update news yet?

Last I heard/read through this forum is sometime this week?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] kf4omc:
Sprint rolled out there update to 2.2 today. Cricket is still "Coming soon"
[Kyocera Zio M6000] jcaf77:
Cricket's upgrade is ready! call your corp store to check availability
[Kyocera Zio M6000] mattpedigo:
I'm a little jealous you have the update.

And thanks for understanding that Windows 7 is technically faster. If you're running a 128 MB VOODOO card, then obviously, it may be a little worse than XP. I am Microsoft and A+ certified so I am confident I know that it's a good OS without resorting to insults and outlandish assumptions.

As for the Windows phone, any muppet can go look at reviews and see it's not a poor phone. Just because some barrel minded individuals have a "PREFERENCE" does not equate to any sort of actual data. The data has shown that it's a well regarded phone and though it may not hold a light to the diversity of the Droid products, it does have a small corner of the market and will likely usher away Blackberry as the little man in the competition.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] s23bog:
This was exactly my point.

Thanks for making it.

An opinion based on my 20 years of I/T experience hardly makes for an outlandish assumption, and not once did I make any kind of insult in my post.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] oconnorfamilyof4:
I just read this on the Cricket Facebook page

Jonez Boeko

Derp derp muve derp. ...

I don't understand (nor believe) why there has been no official release date aside from "soon". Kyocera has undoubtedly set a date I'm sure, so why not share instead of asking irrelevant questions and shamelessly plugging a piece of software?

Come on cricket, play fair here. ...

Cricket Wireless Morning Jonez - The update is set for release very soon in the coming week. When we make the announcement, it will include instructions on how to updated the Zio.

Zclusive posted the on facebook that the cricket update has arrived, check it out. Email him and he will send you the link to upgrade
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Fate43:
Here is the email you will recieve from zclusive

The upgrade to Android 2.2 “Froyo” for the Zio is now here. Below you will find a link to download the software and drivers, and conduct a tethered upgrade on the Zio. The attachments give some detail information on the process. I was able to do the download of the software and upgrade my Zio without issues… it was a very simple process. Keep in mind that it will take the Zio longer to power up the first time after the upgrade (3 to 5 Minutes) so the customer need to be patient with it.

Any issues that are experienced with installing this software should be addressed via a trouble ticket by the IAM handling you locations, please do not call the NDCC with software upgrade issues they will not be able to assist .

Some pointers:

· The installer works with Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Windows 7. It does NOT work with Mac computers.

· The device drivers must be resident on your computer before beginning the download.

o If the drivers have not be previously installed, they are available on the Zio in-box CD.

o The drivers will also be posted on the Android 2.2 site on the link below.

· DO NOT unplug the device from the computer while the update is in progress (device screen will go black once upgrade is in progress). This will break the device.

· The tethered upgrade process will take about 10 minutes (progress will be show via status bar in-tool). Thereafter it will power-cycle and wake-up. This may take several minutes as the new system boots on the handset, please be patient.

o You can confirm the SW version as follows: Menu > Settings > About Phone, scroll down to confirm Android Version = 2.2.1 and Build Number = V1.900CR.9C.

· Ensure date & time automatic network provided values are reset; otherwise date & time will not auto-update.

o Go to Menu > Settings > Date & time.

o Touch Automatic twice to reset.

o Ensure Automatic is checked.

· Ensure screen timeout is turned back on; otherwise the display will consume the battery quickly.

o Go to Menu > Settings > Sound and Display > Screen Timeout

o Set to 15 seconds or 30 seconds

Make sure you are following all directions properly, this is a tethered update so you must be connected to a windows PC and have the Zio drivers installed on said PC

A shot in the dark but try running the drivers exe in compatibility mode for win vista? Post install of the driver exe, go into "C:\Program Files\KYOCERA\KYOCERA USB Modem M6000", and into each of the subfolders and change the executable to compatibility mode for win vista, Then plug the zio into the pc.

Shot in the dark man. Hope that will work. =\

Remember to NOT connect your zio to your PC until after you have installed the M6000 driver pack they give you in the link.

Anyone getting the Stuck on 98% deal on win7 64bit,

I tried setting the compatibility setting of the update tool to "skip version check" (actually it chose it for me). Took way longer than 10 minutes, but eventually SUCCESS! No guarantee it'll work for you though, might have been a fluke in the way i executed things. good luck.

Mine is doing the same thing, sticks on 98% for probably 10 mins or so then fails. Where is this compatibility setting?

Right click on the Update tool, and it should be in the upper portion of the drop down menu called "troubleshoot compatibility". Again this is what worked for me, but its not guaranteed to work for anyone else. my machine's been through a lot so there might be some hidden factors involved.
