London G1 Phones Calling & Gets Cupcake - US Will Take Crumpets
G1 Android phones in the UK are now getting the latest CupCake release 1.5 CRB17 as of today.
Earlier this week approximately 1,000 UK G1s received the test roll out before this mass release.
The last release which was RC33 in US took over a month before then being provided to the UK G1 phones.
Hopefully the returning wave of this CupCake update does not return the favor by taking over a month to arrive in the United States.
So far the G1s in the US with CupCake look to be And Dev 1 phones or rooted phones updating via JesusFreke.
*** T-Mobile Speaks up to say the US will get the 1.5 CupCake update by Friday May 15th HERE***
If the OTA has not reached you in the United Kingdom you can manually upload it here from AndBlogs and then:
- Save it to the SD card and name it update.zip
- Reboot your phone in recovery mode - Continue to hold the HOME button when restarting until the warning image
- Then Press Alt-L if you want to view logging
- Finally press Alt-S to apply the update
