I have a question, when the official release of HTC Sense Ui will come in October can I install it on my HTC magic 32A since it is rooted and have eng SPL? What do I need to do unroot or install its original SPL?
this does not belong here. i am sure the good cooks here will have it for us asap...possibly before most unrooted magics get it!
eg. rooted G1s got cupcake before unrooted ones...

I think that there will be better roms with the Official Sense UI release available here.
I wouldn't touch the SPL.

Dear xda developers.¨
Recently I updated my Nordic HTC Magic with an official update on HTC's site.
Before I had the update I had the HBOOT-1.3300.0009 (SAPP10000) SPL. I loved and had tried many Hero ROMs and even cyanogens mod. But then I restored my Nandroid backup and wiped the phone to install the official update...
After I updated the phone I now had the HBOOT-1.33.0010 (SAPP10000) SPL which is also known as perfect SPL....
Is there anyway to revert back to my old SPL? Or do I have to install one of Amon_Ra's Engineering SPL?
If I have to install one of the Engineering SPL's is there anyway to "restore" when HTC sends out an officially 1.6 android or cant I go back when i first go for it?
Oh and can anyone also post a method to get custom ROMs up again on the 32a with perfect SPL... It seems that all the tutorials I found in the search was for the 32b device...
Bump... I really need to know this...
Bump... I REALLY wish to know how to bypass perfect SPL for 32a and how to make it "normal" later on.....
would be nice if someone could share this information with us since i have the same problem!

Why not just try any spl you want by flashing it as an update zip or any zip file..?.
If I have to install one of the Engineering SPL's is there anyway to "restore" when HTC sends out an officially 1.6 android or cant I go back when i first go for it? Why would you want to ??

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?

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.
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

Okay so I installed custom rom with 2.1 Sense UI, best looking theme I ever seen, just needs a bit optimisation. Thanks for all the help
Cheers!
I am sick of flashing/waiting for a port.
I know you can do this with the dream as I have done it I want to know if you can do it with the magic.
I look and I am all confused now.
I have:
Sapphire PVT 32a ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT 1.33.2010
Radio 3.22.20.17
Using Clockwork Recovery 2.5.0.1
I want to continue using Clockwork but don't want to use the ports any more.
Can someone point me in the correct direction.
Thanks

OK you have unlocked SPL and stuff, for magic there are few roms in development section to chose from (sense and sensless). If you want sense ROM it is 2.1 android version and you need Eyegor's radio switcher to switch to 6.xx radio and 1.76 spl and hero recover to install it, but if you want 2.2.1 adnroid version you can flash senseless roms for 32b magic and flash cyanogen kernel to work on your 32a magic. It is your choice which you will install.
Thanks but that isn't exactly what I meant.
I want to use the cyanogen nightlies and others that are in the dream form but I don't want the extra step where you flash the port.
I did this with my dream and I wanted to know if you can do the same for the magic.

Why would you use port????? You have original Rogers sense rom 2.1 android and MyTouch nonsense rom 2.2.1 android. Both are made only for magic no port, MyTouch is for dream too, i noticed that dream adn 32b magic have same specs
Hi people!
I bought couple of days ago HTC magic which is bought from Vodafone. I never have had a android phone and the whole android world is still new to me.
The first owner said there is some custom bootloader installed and this is 32B phone?
Baseband version
62.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I
Mod version is:
CM6-FroyoRedux 2.0
I dont like this rom bicouse i think its not best rom for me. I have had a lot of windows mobile phones and this forum and custom roms for windows are familiar but this android world seems to be little bit diffrent. Is there things what i should know before i do anything? I want new rom which is stable, fast and simple. I dont need many programmes installed allready etc. in my rom now this cant connect to android market and it is kind of stypid so i need new rom but first i need to know how it is possible so tell me some things about this
Is it only possible to me to install 32B roms which i didint see very much in that rom section :/
EDIT: Tell me which roms are possible to me to install?
Somebody can tell me something?
Before you install a custom ROM in your HTC Magic you need to do a few small steps. I did them based in the tutorial from cyanogenmod
How do I root & install CyanogenMod?
HTC Magic see How to determine if you have 32A or 32B
HTC Magic 32A Users: HTC Magic (32A): Rooting
HTC Magic 32B Users: HTC Magic (32B): Rooting
myTouch3G 1.2 / Fender LE (3.5mm jack) Users: TMobile myTouch Fender/1.2: Rooting
It seams your friend told you it was a 32B version but since you're not sure follow the steps in that tutorial. There you can find what you need in order to proceed. Since you said you already have a custom ROM you won't need to root again (since it should be already rooted). Therefore is just needed for you to determine the version, radio and then you can download and apply the ROM you want. If you need to root just follow the instructions in the wiki link i gave at start.
There are ROMs that are for both versions but it is because someone ported them to the other version. What i want to say is that a HTC Magic 32A can only get 32A ROMs and a 32B only get 32B ROMs. You can check at the topic of the ROM you want the version that the ROM is for. 32A version ROMs sometimes are radio-specific.
you can see at the topics:
[ROM][32A] ... -> is for 32A (most likely old radio but enter to check)
[HTC Magic] [32A] [NR] [6.35] ... -> is for 32A NewRadio (6.35)
[ROM][6.35] ... -> for version 32A NR
[ROM][32A][3.22] ... -> for version 32A old radio
[ROM][32b] ... -> for version 32B
[Rom][32a][32b][3.22][6.35] ... -> for both versions and for both radios
you got what you need?
32b myTouch 3g 2.2.1
Cyanogen Nightly 271
Hboot - 1.33.0006
Radio - 2.22.19.26i
