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

Isn't JFv1.41 a modded firmware? I was talking about the official one

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

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"

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
Hey all,
I just got my HTC dream, unlocked, running on the AT&T network. My question is this: If I stick with the official RC30 rom will I still get OTA updates when T-mo releases them?

HA HA WHERES MY CUPCAKE!!
Now, to be serious, if you stick with the original RC30, you will recieve the official OTA updates no matter what network you are on.
You will need a data connection, either wifi or having a data plan on AT&T.

As long as you have a stock build (not a rooted version), you will get the update, regardless of carrier.

Does somebody know, if the ADP1 is also included in the RC33 OTA update?
Or how do developers update their ADP generally and officially?
Thx
Oliver
no OTA for ADP
(would be kind of lame if google updated your dev platform without asking you...)
OK, I understand . But what is the official way to update to RC33, using the JF RC33 ADP1 ?
Thx
Oliver
There is already a 1.1 firmware out for the ADP1. Not sure if the other stuff would come with a brand new ADP1 phone.

they are two different Systems. ADP is the developer phone and RC33 is the consumer phone. there is no ADP1RC33, there is ADP1.1 and RC33. What are you wanting to do?
i think he wants to update his phone with the latest and greatest features ... but he has a dev phone so doesnt know where to get the offical updates.. also is 1.1 an offical update?
Where can i download the 3.0 or newer firmware for my G1. Thanks

As far as OFFICIAL FIRMWARE, you won't find it, because it doesn't exist. The official firmware stopped at 1.6 AFAIK.
HOWEVER!!!! You are at the right place to get that baby rooted and hooked up with 2.2 FroYo!! Go back 1 page and scroll down a bit. You shall be happy.
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
