T-Mobile aims to appease angry Motorola CLIQ XT owners

As we reported yesterday, Motorola has announced that for the CLIQ XT, it is the end of the line as far as upgrades go. In fact, the handset never did get upgraded past the Android 1.5 build that was installed on the phone at the time it was launched.

T-Mobile is supposedly now working with the carrier's "Customer Loyalty" team to see what can be done to prevent torch bearing T-Mobile customers from marching on the stores. Some possible solutions include an early upgrade or a free upgrade.

Well, Motorola CLIQ XT owners, would an early or free upgrade be enough to keep you from bolting? Let us know by adding your comment in the box below.

T-mobile should stop spending on fancy commercials and more on their network and phone issues.

I have T-Mobile and I agree. No silly advertisement would not make me want an amazing iPhone, EVO, DroidX, or Atrix, but an ugly G2 or cheap looking MyTouch instead. T-Mobile, sign carrier agreements for more HIGH END phones like the LG Optimus 2X/Optimus 3D or the HTC Pyramid *ASAP*!!!

the hype for those phones you mentioned will help get them the latest version of the OS thanks in part to their "silly advertisements".

Looking forward, is this just going to become a constant nightmare for customers? As more and more Android phones come out on the carriers, is carrier and manufacturer support for some phones just not going to exist?
