i have an unlocked, rooted t-mobile g1, running on at&t. i am wondering how i'll get to 1.6 considering google is shutting down the 3rd party distributions.
i wish i understood what the real requirement is to install the developer 1.6 build mentioned below. is it just that the phone is rooted? or is there something special about the developer phone?
