Help with rooting my Magic, doubts...

I have a 32A Magic (Only HTC not vodafone), and I want to root it. My problem is that after reading a lot of topics I have a doubt.
First of all I don't know if the procedure of the 32B (Vodafone Magic) is the same for the 32A, I mean, I can do the same procedure with the same files.
Second, even I found a lot of rooting guides, I wasn't able to find any guide explained step by step or more clearly that the ones I've found already...
I know that this kind of question might have been asked before, but I've already searched in the forums with no real succes.
Please, can anybody give me a hand. Thanks a lot in advance for the pattience...

enjoy your rooted magic

The onlye problem is that my magic is not a rogers magic, it's and HTC Magic with no brand at all (Only HTC)...
Does that work for me?...

RADIO-3.22.20.17

I managed to follow the steps posted in this guide to root it and fix the perfected SPL problem. I installed a custom cooked ROM with Arabic support but had a problem with WiFi not working.
Now here comes the stupid mistake I made (I am a noob I know ). I installed this RUU file. It's Etisalat Official ROM. It has arabic support too but doesn't have google market. Gmail is also not working (WiFi and data services work, but gmail won't sign in).
The problem with that ROM is that the version is that I am back to a perfected SPL again. Only this time my ROM has version 2.56.494.7 which is a higher version than the Sappimg.zip (or Sappimg.nbh) files I used to root the Rogers ROM, so it fails to install. This is why I feel like a big noob installing the Etisalat ROM.
So what I need is a version of sappimg.nbh or sappimg.zip with higher version than 2.56.494.7 that doesn't have a perfected SPL or any help or tips to solve this problem in another way.

yeah, im searching for 1.76.2007 - sappimg.zip

[HTC Magic 32B] Can I root?

Hey.
I have been searching all over the web and cannot seem to root my Magic. I have installed Windows XP now so some software and processes will work.
I have:
SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32B SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0007 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.19.26I
Is there ANY way i can root? I am gutted that I have been looking all yesterday for a root and a keep on failing.
Thanks in advance everyone.

I have exactly the same phone/spec which I managed to root/flash CyanogenMod successfully.
I followed the following procedure to flush the "recovery" image and then you can put any ROM you like...
Google: "how to: root the magic in one click" from the Unlockr
You don't need to flash the SPL but if you do then the 1.33.2004 worked fine for me.
Hope this helps.

didnt work for me.
Anyway, I am going to send the 32B Vodafone HTC Magic back for a refund (YEAAAAH!!!) to buy a factory unlocked 32A HTC Magic!

but you need 1.5 and i am on 1.6 and have a perfect SPL

[Request] Old official ROM from HTC

Hi,
Since I bought my HTC Magic (from Vodafone in Portugal) I updated it to a new official software version which is this:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.76.0009 (SAPPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO 6.35.08.29
However, this is a perfect SPL. Now, I want to root and flash my mobile and I can't. I followed the steps in Rooting the SPL 1.76.0009 thread and got an error.
So, what I was asking is if any of you has any old official update of HTC (the ones which you update just by pressing next a few times on your PC and it does it all for you) that will downgrade my mobile to any previous version so that I could flash it from there.
Thanks in advance.
