I decided to flash my SPL but somewhere it all went wrong.
Now when i start it up i only see "HTC MAGIC" and nothing more happens.
I've tried BACK+POWER and HOME+POWER.
What can I do to fix this? Is it bricked?
i need help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that happened with me too...phone is still bricked...
i keep reading around the forum a lot of people have bricked their phone by trying to flash spl

I just rooted my Mytouch a couple days ago and everything worked perfect and i did it without bricking my phone. I was trying to get the supercsdiv4 rom, but i needed to flash the lateset radio and heres where the problem started. the radio tried to flash was 2.22.23.02. I used the recovery image to flash it and then when i rebooted the phone it stayed stuck at the splash screen and i cant get into fastboot or recovery anymore. it just boot to the splash screen and stays there. I know i cant get my phone back but i want to know what i did wrong so that i dont ever do it again. maybe it was because the radio i had was a 32a radio and this radio i tried to flash might have been 32b but im not sure why that wouldn't work if my phone is 32b
here was my system
pvt 32b
Hboot 1.33.2005
radio 3.22.20.17
have you tried taking the battery out for a bit.. relax a while, then put it back in and try to get into recovery mode (home and power)
this actually happened yesterday and my phone was off the whole time so it has had plenty of time to rest. My phone is truly bricked
well im sorry to hear that, but i have no idea what you did wrong, unless you did flash a 32a over a 32b or the other way around, im sure that could really mess up the phone.
may be a useless idea but have you tried a hard reset
1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the HOME and BACK buttons.
2. Briefly press the END CALL/POWER button while continuing to press the HOME and BACK buttons.
3. When you see the screen with the 3 Android
images, release the HOME and BACK buttons, and then press the TRACKBALL.
i have no idea if it will do anything but might as well explore EVERYTHING.
Similar Problem (Partial Brick?)
Not to take anything away from clint1225 but
I have a similar problem and didn't want to start another thread.
I tried unrooting my devices using the method
described at theUnlockr.com. Everything was fine up until I tried using
their sappimg file (said it worked for all old magics).
At the hboot stage, it found the sappimg but the update failed.
However, the magic now says:
SPL-1.33.0006 (SAP50000)
Radio- 2.22.19.261
Ship S-On G.
It's a 32A version.
I had an engineering spl and 6.35xx radio before I attempted to unroot.
Oh I'm not able to access recovery but I can access
fastboot (computer can't find it though under "fastboot devices")
Other than that, it's stuck at the first splash screen.
Any advice/tips?
Sorry for the long post and thank you.
Good luck to you too, clint1225!
UPDATE *Similar Problem (Partial Brick?)*
In the adb, the serial number
of the htc magic is coming
up under "fastboot devices".
However, if I try to
flash a recovery for example, the adb
returns "remote access not allowed".
I've read about the gold card method
but my phone won't boot up properly
(stuck at splash screen) and I can't
access recovery. Only fastboot seems to be
working.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Take it for what it's worth coming from a newb. But from my understanding if you can reach your phone with Fastboot your a NOT bricked. But this is what I have heard here on XDA, I haven't proven this myself.
Check around and hopefully with fastboot you can get your phone back. Good luck.
I did the exact same thing a few weeks back. I flashed a 3.22 radio over my 2.22 radio, thinking it's an upgrade but after it reboots, it wont get past the logo screen. I spent the whole day trying to find ways to recover it but cannot find any. Thank god I have warrenty on it so I went to the Tmobile store, told them I updated it and when it restart, it got stuck on the logo screen. They gave me a new phone and told me dont f-up this one. Now I'm afraid of updating my phone to the 6.something radio.
Update *Similar Problem (Partial Brick?)*...again.
MasterColdSoul and koolpre,
Thanks for the tips and luck!
I figured it wasn't a total brick so I searched
the whole day on google and xda.
What I can tell you is that I now have a functional phone.
I used the rogers "mandatory" update (2 sappimgs) to
get my phone (rogers 32a) working again (boots fully).
However, I now have the SPL 1.76.0010 which means
I've lost root functionality and it's harder to get root.
But I could use the phone to make a gold card and get root again.
Boy I'm glad this worked! I should have learned my lesson
but I will probably try to root, hehe!
Thanks to google search and xda community!

just because the radio starts with bigger numbers doesn't make it an update. 3.22 was the old radio and 2.33.23.02 is the latest radio so you were actually downgrading your radio and thats why your phone brick. Just letting you know because you seem to be under the wrong impression. Dont make that mistake again. just do a little research to find the latest radio.
Hi everyone!
I'm terribly sorry if I write something that's been solved. But i searched throughout this forum as well as the internet, and I'm desperatedly turning to you guys,
because I'm completely lost
So I have two HTC Magic, the one writes in fastboot:
32A SHIP S-ON H
H-BOOT-1.76.0009
CPLD-12
the other:
(As I know) is a 32B (but that's all I know so far) because when I turn it on, it only shows the vodafone logo and hangs forever...
Yes I tried to boot up with "volume-down" button, tried with "home" button, with "back" button, and also with "home"+"back" buttons; I tried to take out the battery for 10-20 minutes, but it always shows the vodafone splash screen...
UPDATE Now I remember what happened to 32B Magic: I tried to flash the recovery via fastboot
bit it sad "FAILED (remote not allow)" I found out, that maybe I have perfected SPL. Than I followed this "[How-To] Fix perfected SPL (fastboot remote: not allow)" tutorial here in xda-devs,
and after I flashed the ROM "v2.16.151.1", happened this splash screen mis(t)ery... Could it be, it's bricked?:S Was it the wrong ROM? How should I have known which is good??
And just in case I have an other problem with the 32A one as well. I followed the "TheUnlockr.com one click root" tutorial, ok, at least i tried, but when I try to flash the recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H.img in recovery flasher in the phone it says:
"Backup FAILED: Could not run command."
PLEASE! SOMEONE! HELP! I have these two great phones for... almost nothing. I'm totally desperate...
Is saying a "go to hell" or a "you are totally dumb" so hard?
it's already 88 views... I don't think noone has a helpful or useless advice.
You and i are in the same boat. I just ran into the same issue today. Lemme know if you figured it out i'm dying to find out also. Hopefully someone here has the correct answer.
For the one that won't boot into fastboot (back+power), hboot (volume down+power), recovery (home+power), or the regular OS, you've bricked your phone.
I have no experience with the one-click root method so I'm not going to comment on the other.
I can tell you, I spent some weeks with searching, and there is no exact answer... not until some competent and experienced volunteers start to move their asses and look after these tiny losers, us. I say sorry to those "volunteers" for the previous expression...

Thanks for your reply DonJuan692006, that was the answer I was afraid of...
Ok, I consider that the one which hangs is bricked (oh hell).
But what is with my other problem?
Again: On the 32A the Recovery Flasher says "Backup FAILED: Could not run command." I tried to flash the recovery via fastboot USB but it sad "FAILED (remote not allow)"
So the question is: Is it something with the SPL? Do I need to flash a sappimg.nbh with goldcard? If yes which one should I flash exactly?
Again: PLEASE!!! I know there are a bunch of guys out there who know these issues and their potential solutions.
UPDATE:
I solved the issue with the 32A by following a guide from wiki.cyanogenmod.
Well, if surely noone has a word about my (other) bricked HTC, I consider this case as closed...
so im trying to root my sisters mytouch 3g and it was originally 2.2.1 with a "perfect" spl, i used rom manager to flash clockwork mod, that failed and left me with no recovery, so i followed the guide to make a goldcard and was able to get it to the 2005 spl which showed s-off H (its a google branded phone) I was then able to flash clockworkmod recovery I then tried to flash cm6 to the phone and it just sat at the splash screen. I tried 2 other roms as well with the same results. Then i was reading more and it said the 2004 spl was s-off G so i went to flash that, it said flashing complete restart phone through menu to complete i did that and the update screen came up for a second then the screen went black.. Now i cant boot into hboot, recovery, or fastboot. Im thinking the phone is now bricked! Are there any other tricks to try and bring this thing back..I read somewhere about jtagging but could really find much about it. I need to get this thing working asap and dont even understand how this happened.. Ive hacked alot of things and this little phone as been the most confusing and time consuming thing to date. also if it helps it was radio version 3 something. When i try to boot using power and back the splash comes up and if i keep holding after about 4 seconds it reboots again, if i let go a second after the splash screen it just sits at the splash until i pull the battery after a few minutes.

Its a brick. I'll tell you now that you can find a step by step process on using JTAG in the Wiki, but its not an easy process. Your going to have to have some moderate electronic knowledge plus moderate knowledge of how the phone boots to get it working. Your better bet would be to have it replaced under the warranty or insurance if you have either. If not, your second best bet would be to find someone who already has a working JTAG setup and see if you can get them to help you out.

dang another mt3g down noobs need to ask for help
here is a link to a jtag tutorial
best of luck
Where to start... I had SPL-2.08.HSPL and Magldr v1.13 with MIUI rom installed on a T-Mobile HD2 and everything was peachy. Then all of the sudden for some reason I was getting 1EFATAL HIT 1 on boot up. I googled it and found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=908915. #7 looked promising and seemed logical. Task29 completed without a hitch and I was back at the bootloader with SPL-2.08.HSPL, looking good. I downloaded Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787 and that's when things went wrong.
The install seemed to be going fine until 100% when a little caution triangle (I think) was at the end of the progress bar. The window on my computer said something like "This cannot be flashed ... Error" or something along those lines and the phone goes black. I'm like that's weird so I pull the battery out and put it back in and try and boot the phone... Nothing. Do it again... Nothing. Tried multiple times with and without SIM/SD card to no avail. Phone isn't turning on at all... Bricked.
TL;DR: Had HSPL/Magldr and everything was working got 1EFATAL HIT 1 error, tried to fix it end up with a phone not turning on at all.
Any ideas?
You are correct your HD2 is hard bricked. I don't know what went wrong with the radio flash , but that is what bricked your HD2. Having a radio stop flashing for any reason will always result in a bricked device.
The only way to fix your HD2 now is by JTAG. If you like I casn send you a PM with contact info on someone that can JTAG your HD2.
That really sucks, and PM Sent.
i have here a bricked hd2. i dont come in the hardspl. what can i make? the phone is from my onkle. it have installed windows phone 7 and i stuck on htc boot logo
