OTA firmware update (UK) - myTouch 3G, Magic General

I've been getting a notification about a security update on my magic. It claims to have already downloaded it (4.6mb), and is asking to install and reboot.
Does anyone know any details about the update? Version numbers, etc? What it changes?

Forgot to mention my current versions:
baseband - 62.50s.20.17u_2.22.19.26I
Kernel - 2.6.27-00392-g8312baf [email protected] #72
Build - crb17

I never received such notification. When I go to System Update, it says that my phone is already up to date. It got exactly the same version as yours.

Me neither - all versions the same. :-o

all Magics with CRB17 software will soon receive an over the air
(OTA) software update approximately 4.5 MB in size
This is a security patch, and nothing to worry about it, everyone with the affected software should get it in the next week.

I'm more worried about it blocking any future hacked firmwares being installed - eg the new rooted firmware 6.0

Upgrade in Vodafone ES network
I have just updated the firmware of my magic. It had CRB17. After the upgrade the new software versions are:
CRB43
62.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I
2.6.27-00393-g6607056
bye

i have received today the same notification in my htc (vodafone spain). But, what about the root??

@IsAhT sorry but I did not have it rooted before the update, so I cannot tell you the effects of this upgrade over a rooted terminal.

got the same thing right now...i just updated it..

i guess .......... if it is just a update to the firmware system should not effect the rooting.

How does the update process work? I'm on a rooted Vodafone UK Magic, but using the Orange mobile network. I've installed Haykuro's SPL, and About phone -> System updates says it's up to date, but the build is CRB17.
Maybe I should give his 6.0r1 ROM a try...

well i am on voda uk and i am not getting any updating because im using the 6.0 sapphire rom were the system update is disable obviously.
that you are on orange and still running CRB17 should be able to get the update. i think they roll the update gradually like TMOBILE done with the G1 to upgrade to cupcake 1.5,they started with 10% then 20% and so on of the G1 population till they hit 100%.

so after the rooting process installing haykuro's SPL, whats the 'best' rom to choose and where can i get it?.
im on CRB17 as well after trying to get root, which i dont think worked. Is there pre-rooted rom floating about?
im on vodafone UK magic as well

Just got notice for Android 1.5 update, currently have 1.5 UK update

Is there anyway for me to tell which update my G1 just downloaded and put in the "System Updates" section?
I manually installed Android 1.5 (UK) version a few days ago (i live in the us, just couldn't wait). Was there a patch for the UK version today or yesterday? If it is not a UK update, how can I tell if it is the US update? Would like to provide the archive for other people to install 1.5 US if that is what it actually is.
(i have not applied the patch yet its just sitting in the System Updates section, waiting.)
You probably got some EU version security update. This was already covered in a post in the dev forum. If you want to check, just open your terminal and look in /cache.

1.0 to 1.6 Without OTA

I have a g1 t-mobile edition, and just unlocked it and put my o2 sim in.
Is there a way to get the latest (1.6 i think) version of android on?
If so will i lose any of the t-mobile branded bits?
Thanks.
Are you rooted?
If not, you can find the Official T-Mobile 1.6 OTA(DRC83) --here-- you will probably need to install CRC1 FIRST which is located on the same page. This was the procedure I followed to update my unrooted G1 from 1.1
If you have root, you can get the rooted 1.6 from --here--
What T-Mobile branded bits are you referring to? I've noticed The Official seems to be missing MyFaves, whereas the rooted has myfaves, don't know what's up with that...
Nope not rooted, the device is straight out of the box.
Sorry for the vagueness but the tmobile bits i was referring to were losing the t-mobile ring tone, and youtube app?
Also i have a UK version, arent these OTA images region specific?
Finally, when you say i should install the CRC1 first do you mean the 883kb file?
Bit confused as 1.6 is 14.3mb (i.e. small). Dont i need to install 1.0 to 1.5 first?
duplicate post.
sry this is where I have to step aside and hope someone else jumps in :/
Ya, the CRC1 is a super small security update but for some reason I couldn't go from CRB43(cupcake) to 1.6(donut) w/o it. (update fails)
Not sure about the UK vs US versions.. (why I'm hoping someone else can jump in)
All t-mobile bits included(I think their actually just left alone), this is actually a small cupcake mod update. yes 14mb is correct.
Under settings->about phone, what does it say under firmware version? Reason I ask is you may need to update to CRB43 before moving onto 1.6. This would probably help the next helper as well..I still have alot to learn
Firmware version is '1.0'
Build number is kila_uk-user 1.0 TC5-RC8
Slightly hesitant about downloading these images as they are us images and i need a uk image (different number format etc).
Also anyone know if i put in a t-mobile pay as you go sim it will update?
Also (sorry!) does this update come through 3g, and if so does it use your data allowance?

LG UK Eclair (2.1) available now 15/12/2010

The official LG UK website says now Eclair 2.1 is there now http://wwwstg.lg.com/uk/android/index.jsp
However if I connect my phone it says no update available. Any one else got any luck?
The website is talking about Android 2.1 update. It is not Froyo. It is Ecalir. Your phone might be alreay running on Ecalir. That is why it is saying no update available.
It's Android Eclair (2.1), not froyo (2.2)..
The update has been removed because it was full of bugs and issues. We don't know when LG will publish a new update.
Sorry corrected the title but my phone is running 1.6 and 2.1 is now available according to the website. I know it was withdrawn but this morning it changed to available again.
website is static and still informing that update is available since end of November. The upgrade application is telling you that no upgrade are available because it has been suspended. The upgrade application is the only one able to decide if upgrade is available or not.
The website said yesterday that it was temporary unavailable and changed to available this morning. If I go into the upgrade software It says that V20b is available for United Kingdom (customer support menu click supporting model) . I have V10B. It is there alright.
It just does not want to install might have something to do with that I am currently not in UK even though all setting are for UK in my phone.
Try again. I just updated my gal's phone yesterday night.

Any update on the updates?

has anyone heard anything new about getting these new SE updates onto out phones that cannot update OTA or with PC Companion?
The update is available for me but i cant get it because im using FTS V05 with unlocked bootloader and rooted.
It just keeps saying my phone is up to date
how do you know if the update is available for you?
If it was available then it would say "update phone"
no it wouldnt because im not using official rom and can not get update OTA or using SE software. i have to flash it myself. When you go on their website and update section for our phone it says there is s new update (xLoud etc) and i rang SE and said i should be able to update using PC Companion (I obviously didnt tell them i have unlocked bootloader etc)
i noticed this on the x10 section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201729
anyone know if this would work on our phone? scred to try it lol

im from Northern Ireland and my phone is:
Model: R800i
Version: 2.3.3
Build: 3.0.1.A.0.145
