You can get it directly from Google at https://android.clients.google.com/updates/partner/signed-kila-ota-148830.de6a94ca.zip

*** Currently it has a 503 server error which should be resolved shortly ***

Then rename the file to update.zip

Connect your G1 via USB to your computer

Select MOUNT on your G1

Once you see the G1 drive on your computer put the update.zip on the main root directory

Shut Off the phone

Reboot holding the HOME button

Once you get the Triangle ! screen hold ALT and press L then S

Then Reboot when prompted

I have read on a G1 site that Cupcake is due out in early June of 2009.

Software support is required, but multitouch is not just software based. Keep in mind, it depends on the hardware powering the touchscreen, and whether that hardware can relay multiple simultaneous touch events to the system. Older, more primitive touch displays averaged all the touches on the screen and relayed the one point. I’m not saying the G1 can’t do multi-touch, but until it is actually implimented, I remain skeptical.

soo i called tmobile a couple of weeks ago due to a saving picture problem, and i asked the the technician/reptesentative whom i was speaking with about this soo “long waited cupcake update”. she told me that it’s not gonna happen at any time soon. whatever they were working on didn’t quite come out the way they expected and that she’s not even sure if its gonna happen at all…

It should be out before april for sure. Because thats when the new g2 is out on vodafone uk – see the website for that. So its more than likely that they will send out the updates before release rather than sending it out to all the g1 AND g2′s.
