This morning I just recived the 1.5 update, I am in the uk and am in the durham county Region , after 20 mins of exploring I think it is great. Has any else recived this update in the uk. Ps I am using the onscreenbord for this.post
I'm in Cambridge UK.
Woke up this morning to find update available. Loaded it while i took a shower.
Love it to bits. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! Think i will now move over to my G1 permanently instead of my Touch HD. Might even sell the HD and pocket some money too...wow, money in pocket, G1 update..could this be heaven?
The on screen keyboard is what needed the most. I like the new browser icon too, never did like the sort of folder paper thingy before.
Only one minor thing i need now, Bluetooth file send and receive. No big deal though.
A lot of people in the UK have got OS 1.5 (Cupcake) now..
I got my update last night!...

Only problem is there's still stuff missing, like Latitude... again! Oh well, guess we'll wait until next century for the UK to catch up, lol.

Search for the latitude kloader in the market. It will install it into ur Map and then u r able to use it
Just out of curiosity where any of your phones rooted when you received the notification of the OTA update? I cant seem to find a straight answer on if you can get the update OTA on a rooted phone or not. Currently my phone is rooted however I do want to download 1.5 when its rolled out in the US.
According to the About Phone section in the settings menu im running "kila-user 1.1 PLAT-RC33 126986
ota-rel-key,release-key"
Thanks
butlerguy, if i were you, i would better get JesusFreke's build. The OTA will not give root options as it is based upon the ADP1.5 basic build.
You may even loose root altogether, then need to downgrade to do the process again....
Well im not really too concerned with losing root at the moment. I havent found many personal uses for root yet other then using the openoverclocker app to set the clock speed of the processor which just makes the phone run smoother. From what I understand 1.5 seems to address the laggy issues. Just really need to know if im gonna have to flash back to a tmobile build to be able to get the update or not.
I like the upgrades. I don't like the interface at all. Too cld and boring for me. I wouldn't use the on-screen keyboard either (but it would be used by other android phones)..
So yes I will receive the update OTA with a rooted phone? Is what I'm getting out of this?

No. You wont be able to install it, believe me, i've tried.
I'm JF, RC9, FIRMWARE 1.1, RADIO,1.22.14.11
So if you are rooted apart from rc7, then you wont be able to.
If i'm right in saying that? Anyone?
Did anyone else get an update pushed that downgraded you from JI6 to JFD (stock)? This morning when I woke up I noticed an update alert from T-Mobile just like I received for the JI6 update. However, when it finishes and I am rebooted, I am back to JFD. What gives? Has anyone else seen this?
Sorry, I didn't see the question a few posts down about this issue. Seems to be what happened to me.
There are couple of other posts on here that report the same thing happening. Not sure what is going on though. Seems like Tmo run amuck.

I too have the update waiting in the notification bar, it's been connecting to the DM servers for the past 20 minutes. I don't want it if it's going to revert me back. Tmobile had no idea what I'm talking about...so what do we do? Keep hitting postpone?! Thank!
Could be....prepared to get flamed....an update configuration the phone needs to update to .....can't say it....ugh, froyo. Ok getting prepared..fire away.

I can confirm the "rumor". I recently contacted support (T-Mobile) regarding an update performed via KIES. After getting them to send out a replacement, I discovered the "update" this morning. One thing to note, the "replacement" arrived with JI6 installed. After installing the "update" I found the following changes to indicate a downgrade.
1. Applications removed/changed. Media Hub (changed), HD Video Camera (removed), & Task Manager(removed). There are probably others but for lack of better phrase, it appears they restored the device to the factory version that the devices came with.
2. About Phone, Baseband and Firmware version changed. Baseband is now T959UVJFD & Firmware is 2.1-update1
So at this point I am one of the more disgruntled T-Mobile customers, since prior to getting my replacement, I was informed there was NO WAY they could downgrade my device, to the factory shipped SW version. I will be making a call to Support and demanding why they have untrained staff, because obviously they would have told their CS staff about this pending 'downgrade'.
Downgrade Confirmed!
I don't know how I'm going to get rid of this update pending in my notification bar. Is my only option to install it?
Was wondering if anyone updated... and then decided they wanted to get old version up and running? Well this thought crossed my mind, but. Have mo validation of this that I know of. Anyone reverted backto pre updated version? You know to her laptop dock and root again?
Yes. Some folks have done this already.

Thankee budster. Now I can try update and see if my games work any better. games are hard to play when touch screen goes crazy.
I had a brand new A500 with a decent working microhpone. As soon as I updated it to 1.139.05 and subsequently HC3.1 (I forget the final version) the microphone barely worked anymore. I downgraded back to 1.016.05 and the microphone still barely worked.
A google search found this thread where another user noticed the exact same thing, the Acer updates kill the microphone
http://www.acertabletforum.com/foru...0-help/996-low-microphone-volume-updates.html
As much as I like the A500, Acer is really screwing things up with their crappy updates. What's even worse is that the HC 3.01 interim update 1.139.05 does not appear available by OTA anymore which means no upgrading to HC 3.1 for a fresh out of the box tablet. I had a backup of 1.139.05 which I put on the unit and then it proceeded to pull the HC 3.1 OTA update after that.
Anyhow, I believe the microhpone issues on these A500 is not hardware, but software related and directly related to the Acer rom updates.

Hi,
I've had the 4.4.2 System Update notification since it was pushed to the Nexus 4 (but haven't "upgraded" since it might brick my phone and the new features are not compelling), and, as many people have mentioned, I would like to get rid of it, but can't. However, that isn't my question - yesterday another System Update notification showed up, but the icon is slightly different and I was not aware of any new updates being pushed. I've searched online for new updates and nothing has come up. Has anyone else gotten this? I haven't clicked on it because I don't know what it is and I certainly don't want to update the OS. I realize I haven't done any troubleshooting, but I was just hoping to see if anyone else has this.
Thanks,
