Guest webwoke Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 It's only a guide and the Software will be released soon :lol: "GT540 OS upgrade guide (Software release soon)"
Guest he6rt6gr6m Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 (edited) The guide is out, so we're getting there! :lol: I have the following update tool (and message.) Edited September 17, 2010 by he6rt6gr6m
Guest PaulZero Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Woohoo! It's been saying that for some time, and I don't think it refers to an actual phone update, rather an update to the PC software. Perhaps someone else can confirm this.

Perhaps someone else can confirm this. I've had it saying that for the last 2 weeks.....I don't think it's a software upgrade for the PC, I think it is in readiness for 2.1 At least, that is what I hope!!!!
Guest he6rt6gr6m Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 (edited) Gonna try myself in a moment, once all synchronisation and back-up is complete. EDIT: It's not coming up with any updates. Edited September 17, 2010 by he6rt6gr6m
Guest acolazarov Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Gonna try myself in a moment, once all synchronisation and back-up is complete. From twitter: @he6rt6gr6m 1.6 Donut to 2.1 Eclair #Android update guide available for LG GT540 TODAY! Software must be incoming soon. Happy. :lol:
Guest sargie Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Gonna try myself in a moment, once all synchronisation and back-up is complete. The guide actualy says software not released yet :lol:
Guest he6rt6gr6m Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 (edited) The guide actualy says software not released yet :lol: Yeah. I'm seeing if I get the message 'update available' and I'm getting nothing from either LG Update packs. I've just noticed that my PC Suite is an old version. Updating now to check again.

Guest AerospaceMango Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 The guide actualy says software not released yet :lol: I think the important quote from the guide is............. "Software release SOON)"

Guest new123 Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 The "Update Available" on that website has nothing to do with a software update. The "update available" checker as far as I am aware is to find out if a certain phone model is compataible with the LG Support Tool Update service. So basically its just telling you that the phone is capable of being updated via the support tool and that it is compatible with it.. Best page to check out is this one. http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/popup/e...=&curPage=1 All software updates appear on there when they are released. Ive noticed it gets updated quite frequently throughout the day, and even at night.
Guest he6rt6gr6m Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 I've only just got around to installing the Suite so being able to check for the updates and all that, is good for the day I'd have to update the thing legitimately. :lol:

You only need the Lg support tool. In fact I dont actualyl think the pc suite is fully compatible with the gt540 and most of its features at the moment.

So, has anyone got a ROM that HAS the 2.1 update via the support tool?
Guest new123 Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 (edited) Yes, but that doesn't allow back-up. So, has anyone got a ROM that HAS the 2.1 update via the support tool? Easiest way of backing up is just to connect to usb in "mass-storage" mode, and copy direct to and frmo the SD card. And no, no-one will have gotten a 2.1 ROM via the support tool, cos it hasnt been released yet. Edited September 17, 2010 by new123

What, contacts? Didn't know they were on the SD Card. Either way, the PC Suite did it for me, and I'm happy with it.

Guest he6rt6gr6m Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Contacts will be automatically sync'd via your google account so long as you saved the contact type as google They aren't saved as a Google Contacts. I don't faff about with the Google Sync thing. I can't be bothered with it. I'm with Virgin Media, who use Google Mail now after upgrading their offering, however the VM Mail doesn't work as a GMail account on Android devices at the moment, so I don't bother with it.
Guest RottenFoxBreath Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Can always back up your contacts to the old favourite, the sim card, then just copy them back, or sync with google. For the update to 2.1, remember to use a file manager to back up your apps, as everything on the phone, everything, will be gone. There's going to be a lot of people reboot with zero content on their phones..photos gone, etc, if they don't back it up.

And the Photos and Videos are already over on mine as per the SD Mount option when it's plugged in. :lol:
