Where'd the Link Go to Upgrade G1 Dev Phone to 1.6

Question

So, this HTC site is supposed to have links to update the g1 dev phones (and I've used it before).

http://www.htc.com/www/support/android/adp.html

Now, it seems like the update links are no longer there - Anyone know what's going on, or where I can get 1.6?

Thanks! Jeff

Answer 1

Apparently there were some licensing or legal issues with posting the images on HTC's site which, after over a month, haven't resulted in either a solution or an explanation being posted.

See this android-developers thread for info:

Answer 2

Just as a clearer community answer, because I know I've run into this before:

HTC only lets you download from their site if the referrer is developer.htc.com. So you need to use a script which fakes the referrer:

#!/bin/sh 
IDIOTS1="http://developer.htc.com" 
IDIOTS2="http://member.america.htc.com/download/RomCode/ADP" 
wget "--referer=$IDIOTS1" "$IDIOTS2/ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip" 
wget "--referer=$IDIOTS1" "$IDIOTS2/signed-dream_devphone_userdebug- 
img-14721.zip" 
wget "--referer=$IDIOTS1" "$IDIOTS2/signed-dream_devphone_userdebug- 
ota-14721.zip"

You can replace the links as necessary (all the names still line up, so you can get 1.5, 1.1, etc.)
