Android Market Blocks Cupcake Users?

Story posted on: April 15, 2009. Filed in: htc.

Some of you might have already installed the Cupcake update for your G1, and as far as feedback goes, the update is certainly worth the trouble of getting it ported and installed on your device. It does seem that there is a little bit of bad news though. Folks with certain Cupcake builds are finding themselves locked out of the Android Market, which is certainly a deal breaker for many. There isn’t any official word on this just yet, but hopefully Google will relent and allow users who are running Cupcake back on the Android Market. The good news is that this ban only seems to be affecting one of two haykuro cupcake builds, as it is stated:

I want to clarify that this is currently only affecting one of the two haykuro cupcake builds. The “G” aka “google-sourced” line. There is a second “H” aka “HTC-sourced” line that is currently unaffected by this Market change. So if you get the “H” build, you’ll still have market access. For Now.
