I bought the the unit from LYN here, but if not mistaken you may try your luck at All iT hypermall near Gramin store.
You may ask them on the spot regarding your questions, hope they still have RC29 so that you may install the moded-RC30 to get root access.

Happy searching! ^^;

PS: could you please ask them whether they got stock for the G1 screen protector, thx

You may go to "Settings' --> 'About Phone" --> look for "Build Number" --. something like TC4-RCXX

If RC29, congrats....
If RC30, too bad, like me   

Even though can't get the root access now, but pretty sure they will jailbreak it in the near future!!

To update manually, you may take a look at this Guide.

I prefer gtalk, check you PM!

my one also RC30.. wats the difference? any disadvantages?

digital mall. there is a stall at 1st floor selling g1.. u may look for it.. price above RM2150 u should consider nicely as someone is selling cheaper here

I'm a Maxis user, so the following Android G1 settings are for Maxis MMS, WAP, 3G setting:

Settings --> Wireless Controls --> Mobile Networks --> Access Point Names -->

In your APN:

Name: Anything
APN: unet
Proxy: 202.75.133.49
Port: 80
Username: maxis
Password: wap
Server: <blank>
MMSC: http://172.16.74.100:10021/mmsc
MMS proxy: 202.075.133.049
MMS port: 80
MCC: 502
MNC:12
APN type: default

Hope this Maxis settings works for you all ^^)

Batt running out, now have to charge with external batt, bulky.

yes.. i think we should manually add this config to the settings to get the mms works..

well, the short battery life is a real sick.. maybe firmware update will solve the problem..

i guess it is something like external charger using the power suppy of battery

According to my seller, once it's unlocked, it will permanently unlocked.

Need some sifu to verify this

@lek_e30: did your seller give you the code?

u know wat.. my g1 got sirim sticker behind..

both of u got?

the lasti time i send mms, there is one icon (envelope with red clock) appear only nothing happen...

Nothing much to check if the package is in full box,
just make sure it is officially unlocked.

You might also want to check the firmware either RC28 or RC30,
if the former then you are in luck, you may have to hack it asap to get root access before Google
start forcing you to update to RC30. You may check out this site : modmygphone.com

Good luck in hunting G1 ^^;

Some of the benefits are similar to the latest G1 Dev phone which can installed whatever apps you one (signed or unsigned), can move all the browser caches to SD card, can port the latest Cupcake to phone and start enjoy the latest features before it's been release to public and many more 

hi, i'm planning to get a G1 in jan before new year, just want to ask is it this phone no video recording ?

haha~ long time didnt read this thread but it is surprise that so many ppls interested with the gphone~

hope that someone will create a thread to teach and show all the info that gphone noob needs to know (like iphone thread created by davidgary73)

from soo

Got 2 version: Normal G1 and Developer G1 (ADP1), mainly for developer to test their apps before publish on Android market.

Yes, you may install apps like WM and iPhone, but eventually have to pay for the premium apps like iPhone. There are plenty apps to download, check it out here, it shows the latest apps available for d&i to your G1.

Cupcake is the newly "coming" firmware for G1 Android. Android it the OS for G1, just like Symbian OS for most Nokia ^^

i very scare after buy the G1, problem a lots and nothing to play....

I have full access and can see the categories wor.

Try again ^^ here.

Try different web browser, i use FF to access the page.

By the way, now we can flash our G1 with RC30 back to RC29 and get it rooted. Here.
I'm still struggling to proceed on..he..he... 

you all mean G1 coming soon can video record ?

i think you better wait untill G1 officially sell in Malaysia. and its kinda annoying to ask question like that

anyone using g1 here ? mind to share ?
