Just wondering, would the update lock my G1 again?
right now its already unlocked and activated.

also is there a faster way to update the firmware?
and lastly how do i check the version im using :)

1/ No, it wouldnt.
2/ OTA is the fasttest / If u're using a rooted phone, find JFUpdater on the market, it's like OTA for root users.
3/Setting/About Phone

Thanks for the info.
Im not using a rooted phone yet. Im not sure how to root my phone, and isn't it dangerous?

no, it isnt. It just gives u more benefits.

cool.

Are there instructions for updating / rooting the G1?
im sorry for asking too much questions, i just got my G1 yesterday and i have no idea on how to do things yet on Android.

Im using Windows Xp and Vista premium by the way.

I cant seem to find OTA update as well.

lots of information for you here, mate.

just be aware that rooting the phone isnt a newbie friendly process.

thanks for the link. I can see that they have a step by step there. Didnt know that all you need is a microSD card to root the device. :P

thanks for the help. I'll try it tomorrow, its 1am now I might end up killing my device if I do it now.

Also image should I use?

ADP 1.1
RC33
RC8

basically I want to have auto rotate as well. :)

thx

if u wanna make it easier, then just choose the one that u r using. Check it in the about section and u should know which one u using, ADP1 RC33 hay RC8

thanks for the help.
I was able to root and flash my phone.
Now it has auto rotate!
cheers mate!

u can even move all apps to SD card to save heaps of space, not just the auto rotate thing.

ahh I see. I'll try to play with it.
Im still looking for cool games and apps to install :)
