Software

T-Mobile G1 owners, chances are you’ve still got your empty G1 box sitting next to you at your desk. Am I right? Even with the new-ness of it all still upon us, the G1 is set to receive an OTA software update today.

The update will include various enhancements, and make all songs available from Amazon avilable for listening. That’s kinda cool. You might as well install the update, it’s good to stay up-to-date with the latest OS in my opinion.

To check what version of the OS you’re running, hit up Menu > Settings > About Phone > Build Number. The updated OS is RC28, and the old one that shipped out-of-the-box was RC19.

How do you get the update? Expect to be notified via text message that the update is available. You’ll be able to accept the update and proceed, or choose to be reminded again later. This first update is rumored to be small enough to ensure that updates download and install properly… Sort of a test to ensure the system is working A-OK.
