T-Mobile G1 Updated to RC30, No More Jailbreak, No Weird Bugs

Posted on Tuesday, Nov 11, 2008 by Casey Chan

Google sure does act pretty fast when it's concerning their baby Android huh? Only a few days after we first reported that the T-Mobile G1 has been 'jailbroken' and allowed root access to the phone, Google has come good with an update (build RC30) that prevents this from happening.

Google speaks:

We’ve been notified of this issue (Jailbreaking of Android) and have developed a fix. We’re currently working with our partners to push the fix out and updating the open source code base to reflect these changes.

 

Over at the Android Central Headquarters, we've already received the fix OTA and have been rocking RC30 for over a day now. The RC30 update also fixes that very weird bug that would reboot the phone every time you type r-e-b-o-o-t. Tell us if you got it!
