Re: Update your T-Mobile G1 from a MicroSD card
The URL got cut off for some reason. It's:
https://android.clients.google.com/u...-RC19+RC28.zip Even though it says "RC28" it is apparently RC29. I haven't tried it myself, but there's a thread about it here with more discussion: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=439733 (and here) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441282 Credit to user "damien667" over there who found the URL while monitoring his phone during the upgrade w/adb. W PS-- someone in the thread also posted a link to this: https://android.clients.google.com/u...q.TC4-RC29.zip No clue if it's the same thing or different. Also, fwiw-- "kila" refers to the HTC Dream aka the G1.

Re: Update your T-Mobile G1 from a MicroSD card
To update from my earlier post--
https://android.clients.google.com/u...q.TC4-RC29.zip appears to be a newer version. It's got the same 115247 number, and the other one reports RC29 in the phone, but I did a side-by-side diff and they have different files inside. Both were built Oct 24th, but it looks like RC19+28 was built at 4:08 PM and RC29 was built at 4:58 PM. They have different hashes and binaries. Example difference: RC28's /system/build.prop: ro.build.description=kila-user 1.0 TC4-RC29 115247 ota-rel-keys,release-keys RC29's /system/build.prop: ro.build.description=kila-user 1.0 TC4-RC29 115247 ota-rel-keys,for-testing,release-keys The "for-testing" appears a few places. Is the RC29 a beta release? W

Re: Update your T-Mobile G1 from a MicroSD card
I'm dyin' to try it, but sounds too hairball for me. With my luck, Murphy would give me a big 'ole b*tch slap and leave me with a brick.

Re: Update your T-Mobile G1 from a MicroSD card
As I suggested, the RC29 is in fact a test version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441385
Careful about using that one. W
