T-mobile has finally gotten around to getting the Fender LE edition and the 1.2 versions of the MyTouch 3G’s updated to Froyo 2.2. The worst part about the update is the fact that many phones are being bricked, which for the average consumer means your phone won’t boot or work. This is a serious problem that seems to keep recurring with carrier/manufacturer updates.
The good news though: if you happen to find yourself in that situation on your Fender LE edition, T-Mobile is currently exchanging the device out for customers. Guess what the exchange is? A Samsung Vibrant! Not bad if I do say so myself. If you happen to be bricked on the black MyTouch 3G 1.2, your exchange is being reported as an LG Optimus, which still isn’t horrible.
So if you are stuck and your phone is frozen, be sure to give T-Mobile a call and get yourself a new device.
Thank you tipster!!
