Smile Upgrade Android 1.6 to 2.3


Hello guys! I’m looking for some help here:

I got a T-Mobile G1 – the first Android device ever – which still runs Android 1.6. I’d like to upgrade it to Gingerbread. Has anyone had experience with upgrading to Android 2.3?

And what possible problems might I run into?

There is no upgrade for the G1 to Gingerbread, the closest you could get would be to run a custom ROM like Cyanogen, but that is still only Froyo.

just to piggy back also the G1 can't handle anything higher than froyo minus the flash player that they usually all come with due to hardware issues. my touch(3g) won't be able to go past 2.3 for the similar reasons.
