Neat! Saw my phone asking me if I want to update the bootloader (update 1 of 2) with the next update to happen 15 minutes after the 1st! Went with it! Then a few minutes after the first update, phone prompted me for the second update! Yey! Suprisingly though, I have the impression that this version takes more space, coz suddenly I saw my application space (which was about 20mb) down to 8mb... Even stranger, today it's up to 15mb...

I just updated and the new voice search feature is really amazing and works perfectly. I am alone in my room and notice that it is very sensitive so I wonder how well it will work outside with traffic noise etc. the home screen icons look like they have a fade out aesthetic now and also the market has a notification now that tells you that there are updates to the applications you've downloaded. pretty nice.

My build number is: kila_uk-user 1.0 TC5-RC8 116470 ota-rel-keys,release-keys Does anyone know if there is there any way I can force the phone to upgrade itself?

Pat, the difference is it fixes up some bugs, you have voice search, you can save attachments from text messages, and you will be notified when you can download updates or when there is something new on the market. That's what I have found from searching on google xD I tried out the voice search, works nicely. But I agree with you guys, love the phone as it is. I'm very pleased with my phone, its so much better than my old crappy Razr. The g1 is my dream come true. Haha, just thought id comment and tell you guys!

That is all I ask and all i want cause i want to jog with out wires all around me and me tripping into a ditch off a bridge cause the long stupid wires that i have to use for the G1. If I could and knew how i would make an app that would do that for me but i cannot cause I'm not as smart as I'd like to be.

Does it make sense that they're jumping from RC30 to RC33? Or have there been other updates that I've not received? BTW, when the hell will the Market go pay and therefore have the better apps available?!?! Forget about Cupcake, I want a lively Market with more/better apps.

The fact that there are *ANY* new features means that Google/HTC/TMO are all committed to the G1 fulfilling the android potential. If I am reading the tealeaves, I would be inclined to believe that this update indicates that the codebase cupcake is built into is starting to work its way into the update schedule. Maybe this means the the bluetooth profiles will be added as they pass QA in the form of incremental upgrades. Come to think of it, as a software engineer myself I would have to be crazy to try and radically upgrade a software package in one giant update.

The G1 in itself seemed to have fallen off the map of cell phone aficionados. Yes it was the flagship of android, but as you all know sometimes the flag ship is abandoned for bigger and better things! The iPhone is only held on so long because Apple has nothing else to work on cell phone wise. The iPhone, in true Apple fashion, is locked to a single provider meaning they have a larger influence on the phone software itself. I can bet you that AT&T has no say in anything other than the data plans for the iPhone while T-mobile/HTC has all the power while Google has pretty much none.

BTW, check your phones settings and make sure its really RC33... I'll be jealous if it really is... I seem to always be the last to get the darn update! @pat

"Unfortunately, they have also officially said that this update is NOT cupcake and that it will merely include “bug fixes and <b>***feature enhancements***</b>” I don't know about you, but that is definitely worth looking forward to. Get over cupcake. You bought it without those features. Enjoy your G1. Enjoy it even more if we get the "cupcake". Simple as that. Im not sure if people are missing that one little piece.
