I'm not mad me and magical shadow are friends. We know each other in real life. He stays right down the street from me and we play games on our phone together like word feud.

So No Update I guess!

We all have been hearing that an update is coming. Is there an actual date set?

My zio has been acting up and from the reading I've done its due to needing the update to 2.0-2.1 that fixes these issues. Its making life a bit harder to deal with and I'm starting to think that the Assend would of been a better choice of a phone over this POS!:mad:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LordAnarchy:
Stop *****ing?????

The title of the thread is.... "Sanyo Zio for Cricket 2.1 Update".. that invites *****ing and moaning until the update comes out!!! I will exercise my right to moan and groan until then.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jcaf77:
update mid to late feb confirmed to be 2.2 this not from Kyocera but from Cricket. hold on tight per the information i received the phone will work a lot better!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] umadandjelly:
Was just reading Cricket's Facebook page, then I was redirected to Zclusive facebook page, where halfway down the main page is a picture of a legit looking picture of a work order of somesort giving a run down on the update, and approx. time of arrival

I don't know how legit this is, but it looks the part. Says Late February - Early March. Enjoy.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rosco77:
It says cricket will be selling zio with froyo already on it in late Feb or early March. It says the update will be available "very soon". So maybe it will be available before then.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rosco77:
On the cricket facebook page there is a post with a link to an article about an email that a customer received supposedly stating the update will be available on Feb first. But the article also said that we will be getting 2.1 and not froyo which we all know is not true so in my mind it does lack credibility.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Cinas:
As Of 1-30-11

I spoke with a regional representative from Cricket today and was given the date of Feb 15, 2011 for the update to 2.2. The representative said that Cricket customers will receive an email and txt regarding upgrade procedures sometime in the next 2 weeks. I called a second store later in the afternoon and was given a similar scenario after being transfered to tech support. As of now the Houston store I contacted does not have the 2.2 handsets in stock and hopes to receive them by the end of February. Hope this helps some of you. If I don't have the update on the 15th I will have to give up my beloved Zio unless I can find a compatible ROM. Please don't make me use my iPhone Cricket. :(

Hurry up and wait

I'm will to take odds on the actual release date for Android 2.X. After reading all of the posts in this thread I've hear it all. It's always a month out, two months out and now it's two weeks. Regardless of when the next update is released, I will probably wait an additional week or two before applying any updates on my Zio and here's why.

1. Cricket is relatively new to the Android universe.

2. Crickets technical support is... Well we all know about that one.

Even though 1.6 is way way old, my phone basically does what it's supposed to do and I can live with that. I've learned from past experiences that patients is a true virtue when it comes to software upgrades and I'm not about to trade up basic functionality for bling bling.

For those of you who are already hoppin' MAD at Cricket for delaying an update, just wait till something goes awry with the update. Rants will abound. My advice, to all who care to listen, is to relax and stay posted to xda. I'm willing to bet Cricket tech support will have their hands full. :)

gave up on update

I have pretty much given up on seeing a update on the zio. With how the update is always to be released by blah blah blah and nobody is ever on the same page. I guess I wasted my money on this phone the reason I bought the sanyo was because my last phone i had was the best phone i have ever owned but the phone is dated and so old... but given the zio expereince i will probley never buy another cricket branded phone again. Ill just stay with getting used verizon phones and flash them over. Right now with all the lies i dont really want to pay cricket 15 dollars to switch my esn over to another device since i feel I spent all this money on this phone and should have been treated like a valued customer but all im worth is the push off.

ill keep the pos phone as a reminder that cricket is a crapshoot
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kennyminot:
You guys need to settle down. First, you're an idiot for buying the Zio without a reasonable version of Android. If you were smart, you would have waited until Cricket followed through on its promise; instead, you bought a phone with a crappy, outdated OS. Now you are complaining about it. Secondly, all the evidence seems to backup the February 15 release date. If you head over to the Cricket website, they are currently listing the Zio as "out of stock." Given the huge amount of money they spent promoting this specific device, my guess is that they have sold out of the 1.6 phone, and they are currently waiting for a shipment of phones with the 2.2 OS.

I'm getting sick of you whiny twits. I'm kind of relieved that Cricket is taking its time with their first OS update instead of listening to the complaints of their impatient customers.

somebody pissed in kennyminot's corn flakes this morning.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MagickalShadow:
Calling someone an idiot when you know next to nothing about them says more about you than it does those you criticize.

You're the idiot (your word, not mine) paying attention to them...unless someone is putting a gun to your head and forcing you to read posts on this forum, it seems like it would be easy to ignore the ones that all the "whining" happens in.

You want to pretend you're smarter than everyone else, then use some brain power and decide which posts to skip when you read though the threads here.

Well Mr. Magical, I actually do have a gun pointed at my head, its why I visit thread:)

Tell the person holding it to be sure and not get brain matter on your screen. It might obstruct their view of one of my posts.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kennyminot:
Those "nobody put a gun to your head" arguments are always dumb. Apparently, I'm supposed to temporarily lose control of my vision when I visit this thread. While I grant you that I maybe could have tempered my response, I was getting sick of people confusing the purpose of this thread with a customer complaint forum. I come here to get useful information and not read someone's whiny rant about Cricket.

And I had oatmeal this morning. So, the correct phrase should have been, "Well, looks like someone pissed in your oatmeal."
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Spz0:
I think all this tension and thread derailment means the update is coming soon. o_O

/me watches the kettle.

Please don't piss in my kettle. ...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rosco77:
Shut up magical shadow. Your so lame and corny. I also have a gun to my head and am being forced to read your stupid comments but this guy wants brain matter on his phone so he won't have to read your gay rainbow posts that are influenced by your colorful shadow. Magical shadow is a very gay name.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] garmaekawa:
I had steel cut oats this morning, and I LIKE my Zio (and I'll like it even better when 2.2 comes oot... I mean, out! )
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pieisgood:
I do find it ironic that you make this statement but then, of course, you too have fallen into this category that you seem to not like to read about. I'm willing to bet that of the multitude of forums on the internet, and news articles about this phone, I'm sure you can find something that meets your criteria for what a forum thread should consist of.

So while your tired of reading "whiny" threads, you yourself have subjected the rest of us to read YOUR "whiny" thread about how this thread is whiny. Sounds kinda stupid right? well..it is. As Magical stated, you could have just simply clicked past until you found the "useful" information you wanted to read and go about your day, relieving us of your apparent lack of control over your "brain-to-keyboard" motor skills which force you to login and troll a forum for the same reasons your trolling.

All that being said, the date of expected arrival was stated, now several times, for the 15th. If after the 15th it doesn't get here, be sure to expect more upset users posting here. So if you happen to make your way back to this thread, be sure to control yourself and try to look for the useful information your needing and then leave. Trolling only fuels others to comment back, like this post, and moves away from the apparent topic. Had you not had "your moment", the topic would have still revolved around the update, yet now it's full of posts about your lack of trolling skills on a topic that you yourself have violated based on your own comments.

Pie is good...go eat some
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MagickalShadow:
No they are not. They do a good job of illustrating that you are not being forced to do something that you complain about having to do. Which makes people such as myself wonder why you choose to do it.

I didn't say anything about losing your vision, I said that since you want to pretend to be smarter than everyone else, you should use some brain power to determine which posts to not read. It has nothing to do with vision and everything to do with problem solving skills.

Even an "idiot" like myself could figure out which forum members posts I want to avoid reading...so when I see their name, I just skip that post and go to the next. That being the case, I am sure someone of your superior intelligence could figure it out.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] garmaekawa:
Taking them off the shelves...

Not to go off "off topic", but an interesting thing happened on Friday. I was in Fort Collins and ran into a friend of mine who had been asking me how I liked my Zio. He told me that last week he went to Cricket to get one, and they were taking it off the shelf, right then and there. Said that the "new upgraded ones" (as my friend put it) were coming out, and that he needed to wait. Not to go anti-conspiracy theory here, but it sounds pretty real to me...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MagickalShadow:
Aww but conspiracy theories are so fun! I was waiting for someone to inform us that the Titanic sank because it was waiting for an Android update from Cricket and they waited so long an iceberg formed and sunk the ship.

Back on topic however...if the rumors are true, then time is running short. I would say we should see something in less than 2 weeks if what we have been hearing has any validity.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dreamstryder:
It always in two weeks ;) lol

This time it may actualy be true though i agree...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sirholiday:
Hello everyone. I also have the oh so talked about Zio.

I have to admit I've been been looking at this thread off and on for the last month. You people here seem to be the only ones who understand my pain. I've also formed a bad habit of connecting to WiFi and checking for an update every night before bed... Oh the disappointment! I decided to make a post, because well we are about to get the update, right? :D So it will be like a party here?! God I have so much doubt. But it's a date, and with a date there will be hope!

Kyocera Zio 2.2 Update Coming Soon

Hi everyone,

My name is Ryan and I work on behalf of Cricket Wireless. We appreciate all your patience as we have worked with Kyocera to develop a 2.2 update to be shared with the Cricket Nation over the past several months. We are happy to report that the update is in the final stages and is coming soon! Stay tuned to our Facebook page and for any additional direct SMS alerts in the near future regarding the release of the update and instructions on how to update the OS on your phone.

Best,

Ryan on behalf of Cricket

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] garmaekawa:
Hahahahaha!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MagickalShadow:
Want to know how I knew this was not true?

Because judging from some of the posts in the Cricket threads I have seen, I think Cricket understands that a great many of their customers are going to require a Dr Seuss style instruction manual on how to do the update and they have not sent one out yet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dakeshon:
your right, they haven't even mention the Kyocera Updater Tool. I am ready to get a flash phone. Maybe Samsung Transform???
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kennyminot:
Update

The Zio has mysteriously disappeared from Cricket's phone page. <gasp!>
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Spz0:
It's at the bottom of the page
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Elitedog87:
Went to my local cricket store here in NC and the rep told me that there may not be an upgrade that they might just relese te phones w 2.1 on them and the rest are screwed... could there b truth to this statement? That would b messed up if so.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MagickalShadow:
Simple common sense would lead one to believe this is just B.S.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dakeshon:
I was at a corp store today, the manager told me sometime next week. The store will also get shipments of the ZIO.

Just found a tool called "quick settings"

You can find it here

Please try "Volume Control" (see from http : // code. google. com/p/quick-settings/)

It seems to be adjustable and can be saved.

[XPERIA X10 General] ishin0918:
it's no use to enlarge the volume.
[XPERIA X10 General] tookieboy:
yeah i've been using quick settings for a long time. it is limited by the software (i.e. can't override to go higher than what you already could)
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
This doesn't really increase the volume any more than you could without the app

Unless you want an interface where everything is all in one place, don't download this app
[XPERIA X10 General] Zenghelis:
Mods should correct this misleading title, or even delete this thread, instead of delete or close threads about 2.1 update, I think.

PS: I'm using this app, and it's great, but it is not to increase volume. Nice interface.
[XPERIA X10 General] Nimche:
Real nice.

It should go to App section with a correct title.

Wow thats amazing... and your the first to make such a claim and have proof to back it up! @ days and change... wow! (hope its not photo shopped)... also running live wallpapers etc... very impressive! Still with 30 percent batt left?! What batery meter are u using btw... damn I think i might try that combo on my epic now...lol!

nice share!

but looks like very mild usage... what kind of batt do u get with moderate and heavy usage?
[Epic 4G General] J3ff:
this week I'm learning how to flash roms, my phone got SIX hours with NO USE today. I'm fed up with it.
[Epic 4G General] stud_muffler:
Sorry, I cannot do screenshot 'cos my phone is not rooted and complete stock everything, but as I posted in some other battery related thread my phone hold to 2 days 12 hours and 30 min with 3% left over Columbus day weekend.

BTW, TWS was over 50%

:cool:
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
battery meter is in blue minimalist theme and not photo shopped i have posted other screen shots with 45 hours and so on. stud muffler if you cant go download shoot me to provide screen shots i dont believe you are getting that battery life especially because the sprint apps use the most juice and the galaxy rom is way more conservative scaling on the cpu. also no one else on stock is making the same claim as you are with that usage dont make claims you are not able to back up with proof this is android not apple. everything can be verified very easily. you do not need root for shoot me. if im not at my house where i have wifi my battery gets drained really fast on 3g with no data usage kinda sucks.
[Epic 4G General] zetterwing:
I see that the Display is at 11%. What kind of usage is this? The math says that is about 4.5 hours of being "on". I can see with the right setup those sorts of numbers being attainable. The difference being actually using the device a lot would kill more battery. What exactly is your usage pattern?

Edit: Whoops I didn't read all the way. Wifi is a big plus for battery life. I'm tempted to try out the Galaxy rom now.
[Epic 4G General] robl45:
so whats the point of this thread? I can do this too at my house, just hook up to wifi and the battery lasts forever, its the 3g that drains it as you said.
[Epic 4G General] ExploreMN:
That's pretty amazing...I'm wondering what the 1 battery is? Car battery perhaps? LOL

I think the most I ever got with light/almost no use was around 19 hours with about 10-13% remaining battery. That's just a guess though...I wasn't trying to test the battery...just didn't talk to anyone for a day or use the phone for anything in general.
[Epic 4G General] rjmjr69:
Somethings not right. Since when does the screen eat up less than any other process? Thats the top drain on all other epics
[Epic 4G General] boomerbubba:
If you seldom use the phone for anything, the proportion of power used by the screen goes down, and so does total battery drain. Then you can brag that you got 60 + hours.
[Epic 4G General] Sh0wNuF:
He still had about 4.5 hours of screen on time which is pretty damn good if you ask me. In my daily use I get around 13 hours of battery with a screen on time of about 2 hours, if I'm reading a book using kindle I get 9 or 10 hours with about 3 hours of screen on time.....so he has a higher screen on time than me and still gets like 2x more battery than me (I've seen his other screenshots) on average
[Epic 4G General] lokhor:
I dont see where you got 4.5 hours of the screen being on
[Epic 4G General] houkah:
i also don't know where people are getting 4.5 hours of screen on time from the screenshot. It's not 11% of the total battery time on. It's 11% of the batteries overall use. It doesn't really have anything to do with the total time unplugged. Some fuzzy math going on heh.
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
I was at 42% battery when I just plugged in my phone tonight so it's charged up for work tomorrow.

It's not that hard to get these kind of numbers with light use.
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
@styckx:

How come yours saya "Unplugged for" instead of "Since unplugged"? Not saying its fake or anything, just never seen that before lol
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
Because in the SS it's charging and changes to "unplugged for". It saves the amount of time it was last unplugged for. If I unplugged it then it will say "Since unplugged" and reset the timer.

Yeah, not shopped, I'm not looking to score e-cred over cell phone screenshots. :)
[Epic 4G General] dumpringz:
I use my device so much my display & voice calls generally wear down battery in 6 hrs tops. used to be 10-12 but since di18 it sucks .. might be both updates idk. I'm anticipating some good reads to learn up on flashing & such so maybe ill be able 2 get better life. my browser speeds suck
[Epic 4G General] mapcom1:
Looks like a Day or Two of Airplane mode,

Im rooted and tweaked and get about 20 good hours of use-able time
[Epic 4G General] dumpringz:
I never understand y ppl brag about standby battery life. not saying op is showing stats based on that but to me its a pointless test when ppl do it that way.
[Epic 4G General] herzzreh:
Not impressed.
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
I only toggle airplane to get the best tower fix at two locations. my screen brightness is turned all the way down. i check my email 2-3 times a day and as you can see my phone calls on bt trump all my usage. also if i were to just let my phone sit in standby it would prolly be more like 90 - 100 hours on one battery. i bought the external charger that came with another battery. and the meaning of this was to see if any one on an oc kernel was getting comparable battery life.
