Which ROM for my HTC branded Magic? - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hi guys
I have a non-branded HTC Magic (Switzerland) and I'd like to load it with the latest (Hero-) ROM. Now, which one is the right for my device? I am very confused... there are so many threads with ROMs in it.
my device says following in fast boot mode:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.20.17

any roms made for rogers will work

I bought a used Rogers Magic phone.
My fastboot information says:

Shouldn't it be:
Saphire SPL 32A ENG S-ON H
I'm not even sure 's-on' and 's-off' means...
If there's any radio, or SPL i need to update.. please let me know.
Thank you.
You have the Engineering SPL already flashed is all.
Here's a thread on the various SPLs.

Thank you.
Then how come I am bound to the rogers phone compatibility?
Rom for rogers HTC Magic phone
Above roms works for me, but
CyanogenMod v4.0.4
doesn't work for me.
Does it have to do with SPL version? or phone itself?
Thanks.
Also, why is mine 'Unkwown' not 'PVT'?

You need to use ROMs for a 32A board, the second ROM your trying to install is for the G1.

Buying a new phone + can I root this?

Hey guys.
So I am buying this phone (please check link): Here
I asked the guy and he said it is a 32B and he is checking to see if it is 1.5.
It is a US model and does not have the network logos on it.
Will i be able to root?
UPDATE:
More info on the phone

Android 1.5
so can I root?
Hard to say whether it is 32A or B. but you can get root access with most of the version a bit difficult with 1.6 from what I understand
http://theunlockr.com/tag/magic/
thanks. SO i can unlock a 32A with 1.5? nice
It is very easy you use just a couple minutes but the method on theunloker is slightly out of dated.
Thing is, all the ROMS under HTC Magic are 32A roms?

32A,B donut and cupcake +++
ehh? what do you mean?
If it comes preinstalled with 1.5 and I use a rom that is 1.6 or 2.x, how do i get back to 1.5?

If you successfully flash an engineering SPL on it you'll be able to flash any ROM you want... It won't bother you about system versions.
some roms say you need a specific SPL and radio, would I need to change them for every rom?

The only ROM I know that requires a specific SPL is CursorSense and it's for 32A... for other ROMs I think any 1.33.20xx SPL will work fine (1.33.2005 does on mine).
aww I see, thanks.

Who said there aren't any custom roms for this! Oh there are plenty of roms for this. I suggest you do some research and maybe you'll understand things a bit more, such as you can't FLASH any roms.

Yes they did manage to make custom rom from the Rogers RUU update BUT your mixing things up.
The HBOOT from the Rogers RUU is a perfected spl. If you flashed your phone with that RUU your screwed. This spl is not a "engineering" so it won't allow you to boot in recovery or send fastboot command to manipulate it. This particular spl is not affected by some old bug that could make it rootable. Goldcards also does not work on it. Your now stuck on this spl and will not be able to flash ANY custom rom on it. That's why you need to wait for the next Rogers RUU update for 2.1 and that it will have a engineering spl (or hackable spl) that will allow you to install custom roms. Only engineering spl can allow you to flash a new rom.
so not even with GoldCard???
yups i have tried a lot but Failed
Unless i missed the latest news on this spl no... not even the GoldCard method works on this spl.

Sense UI

Hello,
I have a HTC MAGIC 32A and i can't download The offical HTC Magic Sense UI Rom. When I Use serial code it said it is not suitable for my device. So can any one please download the file for me and upload it on megaupload or rapidshare?
I really like Sense UI a lot more than android home.

Is your provider european ?
What version do you have ?
Is your phone rooted ?
Some basic guides and reading to get up to par with all the terminology and procedures.

Yes it is european, the phone is rooted, and the software version is 1.5
Then go for a custom rom and not the RUU.
Have you flashed your boot and radio to the latest version ?
If you like 1.5 .. get CursorSense with SenseUi
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592856
If you want to try 2.1 get SuperHero (also with SenseUI)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642393
Both require new boot (1.76.2007) radio (6.35.xxx.xxx)
I am a bit afraid to update radio and boot. Besides I never actually thought of updatigng them( Im a Newbie). Is it safe? More or less?
Share your phones info, EVERYTHING in the fastboot menu and we'll help you. It's easy to update the radio and hboot as long as you follow instructions.

If you ever plan to use a custom rom you can kiss it goodbye that RUU upgrade has a perfected spl so you will be stuck on Stock roms only.
If you still want it check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621415

MT3G 1.2 32A (Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G) Questions???

Hi everyone,
I am somewhat new at this so please be patient with me if I am not understanding this correctly. I have been searching and reading and posting questions on different threads for several days now any can't seem to come to any kind of conclusion as to what ROM I should/could be using so I need some help. What I am trying to get is a stable (preferably official) ROM with HTC Sense on my T-Mobile USA MyTouch 3G 1.2 (Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G). Every forum post I have found so far has had slightly different info. Here are some questions I have based on different posts and guides I have read:
1. Is the MT3G 32A == HTC Magic 32A for Rogers/UK? What is the difference? Radio?
2. Can any 32A ROM be used for MT3G 32A? Why/Why Not?
3. Would an official HTC Magic ROM for Rogers or Voda work using rom.zip(from RUU_Sapphire_SMC_Voda_WWE_3.03.990.6_release_signed_NoDriver.exe)->sappimg.nbh then update using goldcard method? Why/Why Not?
4. Does the MT3G 32A have the same hardware as the HTC Hero? If so can I use official or custom Hero ROM? Why or Why not?
Anyone have any suggestions on what to do?
Here is what I have now:
T-Mobile USA MyTouch 3G 1.2/Fender with 3.5 MM Jack
Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)

Thank you,

The thing is any Magic with 3.5 headphones jack on the top requires a different procedure to flash custom roms. So Magic 32A roms dont work on those with 3.5 jack due to the new hardware. There are no custom roms yet, so the only thing you can get is root(like you already have). Oh, if I were you I wouldnt try flashing custom roms of hero and Magic 32A. Just wait for the "offical" custom rom.
