As many are aware the unofficial cake which was speculated
to have been released January 15th is still not available. I
personally obtained this information from a T-Mobile employee, who went to the
extent of naming some of the updates as follows:
Stereo Bluetooth (A2DP)
On screen Full QWERTY keyboard
Video recording
Saving MMS attachments to SD card
POP3 email enhancements
According to APCMAG
“Browsing gets a boost
with faster performance plus find and copy/paste features in the browser, which
is now based on the latest (November 2008) WebKit core. There’s also the
ability to record video and save MMS attachments – sure to be welcomed by the
five people who actually use MMS.
Many of the issues associated with the mobile email client are swatted down
including streamlining email account setup and new mail notifications for POP3
accounts, displaying cc: recipients in the message, more elegant recovery from
POP3 connection failures and observing user preferences in displaying the date
and time.
A sizable slew of the improvements in Cupcake were developed by the open source
community and submitted into the public code repositories, and along with
Google’s own body of work have now been incorporated into the final update. And
while Cupcake began as a separate development branch of Android, it’s now been
rolled into the OS
codebase and thus will be available on all new Android devices.”
Please Google, T-Mobile,
