    Default RC29 to RC30 update download link


    Well my phone just took the RC30 update OTA It asked me if wanted to install and i did because i don't care much about gaining root access to my phone so here for your enjoyment is the download URL for the file

    from reading the file name it looks like you must have RC29 to use this update
    not sure if those on RC19 will get a different file download or will just have to wait till their phones are on RC29 to get the RC30 i was in the same boat as you guys some days ago but i downloaded 29 and did an SDcard update cuz i couldn't wait (don't ask why lol )

    no idea, mine came via OTA and that was the file name perhaps they changed something so we cant manually update anymore in light of us being able to with RC29 would be my guess, considering how fast i got this update , less than 2 days from it hit, compared to RC28/29 i was over a week out from when that hit before i just did it myself instead of waiting i would say you will get yours soon enough

    BTW: The file *IS* named update.zip It's just that Windows hides the file extensions, so naming it update just changes it from update.zip.zip to update.zip!

    In other words go into Explorer settings and remove the checkmark for hiding extensions of known file types

    i was just offered an OTA update 5 min ago,.. i accepted and it went through it's paces.. but its still v29...(i had installed that manually a few days ago..)

    does the OTA updater really not check what version is already installed to your phone before offering the upgrade?
