Does the RC29 update work with the UK version?
I think it will, but you shouldnt try it. There is a different version for you (I think its TC5-RC7 if i remember correctly). We need someone to try to "intercept" that one for us now.
Currently running TC5-RC7 112931.
any one else in the UK let me know what they're running?
That is the equiv to the RC29 for US.
I'm on TC5-RC7 112931 as well.
Does the "TC5" part of the version name refer to the SDK used to compile the software?

Hi,
I'm a uk user and my G1 is running on TC5-RC7.
I'm glad i found this thread, i was gonna put RC29 update on my droid via micro SD card.
So does this mean i'm up 2 date with RC7??
T-Mobile & Google are a bit slack really......they should keep us posted in the UK as to what we should be running on our new phones.
Whats the difference between RC7 & RC29 then?
Cheers

What scares me is the RC designation (which in my experience means a release CANDIDATE) and not a full version.
How long till we see a "gold"

Probably not till 2009
It would be very nice to see if we can flash US updates to our UK G1s. Years of experience of living in the UK makes me suspect it won't be long before we stop getting any updates due to general apathy in this country to provide long-term customer service.
re: US updates on UK G1
i have uk g1 running rc30 with root access and its fine. there is mazon mp3 store but unless u have US address u cant buy,(you can preview tracks).
i am hoping that because ive still got root access i could revert back 2 UK updates later.
p.s the rc29 update has code to check the build but if you install rc30 (with hack/root) you dont need to worry as this doesnt. there is a guide on here that helped me ill post link if u need it.( I read lots ov ways but couldnt work it out,this 1 does it from sd card,its v.simple)
hope this helps

Ok just ordered my G1 today and need to know somethings. Where can i get the latest firmware? Because some people are saying that it doesn't work over the air for AT&T users. And what is the current firmware that is out right now?
Thanks

If you want to renounce the benefits of the modded firmware (you can always switch back) all you will have to do is wait. The next firmwareupdate will be pushed to you automatically, whether you are on t-mobile ore not, it even works via wifi. As soon as you connect to the internet - and the update is due for you - you will recieve a message on your phone.
rc30 is the most up to date official firmware in usa
It is well-known that the 1.5 ota push has begun and many people have downloaded the latest edition of android.
However, folks such as myself, who don't have a data plan, would like to download the latest update. Just as RC33 was available for manual download, is 1.5 is also available?
Yes, it is downloadable, and if you would have read, you would know where to download it.
Lock Please.
They released OTA 1.5 cupcake for Android Dev Phones but there's no official OTA update from T-mobile so we have to wait for awhile and keep updated on this forum.

its available all over the first page where it shows all of the threads for android development
ADP1.5 ota is available but
T-mobile version is not out yet. They ARE NOT THE SAME.
ADP1.5 is out but not TMO 1.5
If you read around the internet there is no clear cut confirmation of T-Mobile rolling out the 1.5 update for US T-Mobile G1's. It has been confirmed in the UK, but all of the other "confirmations" in the US have turned out to be people with the Android Dev Phone or a rooted TMO G1 getting the 1.5 OTA updates. Be patient, toy with the other builds by JF, Haykuro, and The Dude. I'm sure when it comes out these versions will still be superior in every way.
P.S. I am diligently waiting for the TMO OTA 1.5 as well because my wife won't let me hack her phone, but damn is she jealous about those cute android emoticons!
not all uk phones have the OTA yet...they're STILL sending it out...taking they're time about it tbh lol

No the T mobile - rc version is not available. Maybe you should have read, read again then asked yourself if you wanted to leave an ignorant reply???

Could you please supply us with a link when its done downloading? (Should be in the download folder on sd card I think) This may be the official 2.2 update! (Also, would appreciate it if you could tell us what the update was for after you update successfully by checking settings>about phone and check the system version) And this may be the new 2.2 firmware by Motorola! Also, from what I have seen, 2.2 comes to motorola milestone UK in Q1 of this year, but only UK I think. I am not sure though.
But please do check if it is actually 2.2 and supply us with a link if it is
Edit: If anyone cares, here is the link for when the updates are scheduled : https://supportforums.motorola.com/community/manager/softwareupgrades
SHOLS_U2_02.36.0_UCASHLSMR2EMEAB1B806D.0R_PDS003_U SASHLS00RTGB_P026_A019_HWp2a_Service1FF.sbf.gz
In italy we have the 2.38 since september, so dont get too excited, is not froyo
I dont think its the 2.2, that release is already mentioned here under UK service packs.
I'll inform what it was after the update is done. I have no idea about the update since I'm already on 2.1-update1 and MSU only said there is an update available.
Edit: Well.. after downloading it informed that there is no new software available for the device. I have no idea why there was a popup in the notification area saying there was an update available.
And thanks for the link, Sileshn. I'll be more careful the next time so I don't get my hopes up for nothing... still waiting.
You should be able to tell by the download size.

for anyone who doesn't believe : )
It can be that you haven't checked for FOTA / Motorola Software Updater(MSU) for a long time ; )
just for FYI, it's the uk 2.1-update1...
with the annoying alarm bug ( :
SHOLS_U2_02.36.0 is not a 2.2.1 update
we have already that update in greece from summer it just fixes the alarm problem.
is it possible to update baseband on this phone?
my phone was shipped with 0.15 and i think thats why i've been having the wifi issues. (rebooting nonstop anytime i connect to wifi)
Is there a newer version than 0.15 ?? I havent seen it..
And at the moment its not possible to flash radios with S-ON it can brick your phone. If you get it via an OTA update you will be ok

all the T-MO demo units we have in my store are on 0.16
i've been tempted to exchange it, btu since it's been rooted i'm holding back because i dont want to pay the out of warranty fee.

There has been at least 1 update but I think it went out before the phone launched. I picked up my phone on launch day with a 0.16 base band. Another user on this forum reported getting an OTA to the latest (current) build of 1.53.531.16 which I assume also updated the base band to 0.16
You could try a manual check in by dialing *#*#2342546#*#* in case your wondering 242546 spells "checkin"

Unfortunately i'm not on the stock ROM anymore so that isn't an option.
After doing a bit of research, it seems like the only way to get the baseband update would be for me to somehow revert to the prerelease TMO ROM, then wait for the OTA that was sent out to the prerelease devices which has the baseband update included.
Which is basically impossible, because no one is going to be running that prerelease ROM right now.
So i'm basically clueless at this point. probably just going to see if i can warranty swap it through HTC and hope they don't care about the bootloader being tampered.
Any input from anyone is definitely appreciated!

thanks man i saw that! but i need something similar for the t-mo US ROM.
i'd have to find a prerelease ROM, then wait for the OTA to the release version.

Once the base band is updated you could flash a stock rom or even restore your own personal back up. The international phones use the same chips as the TMOUS phones. How come you don't want to update it if your having problems?

I definitely want to update, but I doubt i'll receive the OTA to update the baseband since i'm on TMO US..
Looking through the thread looks like no US people have tried. I might give it a shot just for kicks. Hopefully it works.
edit - it looks like it definitely won't work if you're on TMO US, because the update has not been pushed out through TMO's servers. The update comes from the carriers, not HTC directly.
anyway problem solved.
ended up getting a replacement from HTC. should be fine.
edit - LOL the replacement came with 0.15 baseband and the kernel from march 29th. retail release versions came with a april 6th kernel and 0.16 baseband.
now i'm clueless. just wait a couple weeks and maybe process another exchange.
haha well my replacement phone came....
still had the same 0.15 baseband as the original pre-release version.
i assumed the replacement would be updated, apparently i was wrong. I might just hang onto this one for a month or so without rooting or unlocking the baseband just in hopes they push an OTA to update my baseband.
can someone teach me how to upgrade my baseband to .15

So the 32gb LTE tab has yet to get the 5.0 update because it's pending ATT approval. (Which is complete and utter bs imho)
As of now the update has yet to roll out for the 32 GB LTE US model but is rolling out for both the WiFi and 32 GB LTE UK models. BUT people have gotten the UK download link and were able to change "un" with "na" and were able to get a zip download for the us version. This is the download link straight from Nvidia. You can flash using ADB sideload with completely stock tablet. Should that link go down I will mirror it somewhere if no one does so before I get to it.
NOTE: The update might not be the final version/the working one/the one that will be officially coming to the tablets.
I'm not responsible for any damage this may cause to your device.
