ShadowFan2008 has put together a nice how-to in the forums for the AllShadow Community. A couple of notes first:

  • Install at your own risk! Follow the instructions.
  • Make sure the G1 is plugged into AC power FIRST. Don’t pull the battery. Be patient through out the process (It only takes about 15 minutes TOPS)
  • There are bugs in this release. For me I have trouble with Gmail App and the Android Market. If either of those are important to you then don’t install this.
  • About the ‘update.zip’ In the linked to how to it says not to rename the file  ‘update.zip’ but just ‘update’. This is true if you are unable to see known file extensions. For example if you look in a folder and don’t see .zip or .doc after files then you have it turned off. If you can see extensions then go ahead and name it update.zip. If it says it can’t find ‘update.zip’ then you named it the wrong way.

View topic – Install U.S. Cupcake, without root – AllShadow.com Forum.

If you want to learn more about the different builds of Cupcake, check of Mast3rMatt’s thread. There are also links to the older builds (like RC33) in there in case you don’t like this pre-release.

Thanks to Everyone who sent this in and posted in the forums.
