Vodafone UK HTC Magic Original ROM - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Has anyone acctually got one of these? i have been searching for hours! basicaly ive flashed my phone with a Hero ROM but im not happy with the performance so i just want to revert back (i was too stupid i only got my phone for little over 35 hours and i didnt make a nandroid ) im just looking for a original, stock, out of the factory (or however you wanna name it) ROM. Please if anyone has it help out id be very grateful , i just want the firmware dont need the data

This is not a development related question. Moved.
And, why wouldn't you try another non-hero based ROM? It would run faster than even the stock ROM.

Youre absolutely right. I also just replaced the original rom with Qteck but it really crashes alot. And the speed darn it, its soooo slow.
Does somebody have a the orginal rom so we could fix this problem.

Well i take back what i said, Cyanogenmod is the ANSWER to Android phones. Its Fast, stable, with his update manager easly updated.
So IFlip92 i would advise you to try Cyanogenmod all other mods are just junk.

This doesnt help if you have to return the phone though, ?When i get mine back after paying for a repair becaus i had cyanogen rom on it i will upload the original rom as soon as it is turned on

Thinking of putting Hero Rom on my Magic from voda, would you suggest one please also does the on you have work perfectly as tho it was a Hero which you are using with the multi touch on internet browsing
Cheers James

Yeah, I too have updated my original magic rom to the hero. It looks great but runs like a dog, the lag is unbearable! Is there any way of getting the phone back to the way it was when i took it of the box?
I would love to get my magic back!!!

Your Magic with Hero rom shouls be running perfectly. I had the same feelings as you. What I did do wrong was not formatting and partitioning sdcard correctly.Once that sorted ,reflashed with Modaco's full version, everything is fine.
Other suggestion is to have a go at Enothers rom (t-mob) which is 100% perfect.

Can someone help me with this please..

Hey everyone.. If someone can help me with this i wld really appreciate it.. I have a MT3G 32B n i have the Manups 2.1 ROM installed on MT3G.. It runs smooth sometimes.. In other words i get a few FOrse Closes sometimes which kinda sucks that and my keyboard always gets a force close as well n sometimes the Keyboard just wont work n i wold have to turn off the phone n turn it back on.. But the main problem i have with it is sometimes ill be using a program and all of the sudden my phone freezes then it will shut off n restart itself which kinda sucks n gets annoying sometimes.. Ok Ok it gets annoying alot lol.. i really like the Manups ROM but that makes me frustrated when it freezes then restarts itself.. Is there a way to fix this so i dont get so many force closes n my phone to restart it self on its own.. Please help..
MT3G 32B
Radio: 2.22.19.26I
SPL: 1.33.2005
Recovery: RA-v1.6.2 (File name was: recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.6.2G.img)
ROM: ManUps 2.1 ROM
Just incase you needed the info on the phone..
I would try starting from scratch; wipe, and reflash the ROM. Yeah, it's a pain in the a** to reinstall all of your apps, but it sounds like it's frustrating to use.

I'd just try another rom, I think manups is old now so give a new one a try!
Yep, I took a look at the thread. It's abanadoned and you you can't really expect a stable 2.1 rom yet
I would try Cannons if anything
I'd just stick to a 1.6 though, completely stable lol

Just a heads up, since you have root access, you can download for free, "Backup for Root Users" from the market, its great, can select all sorts of things to backup but the best is "Apk's" which is your apps, so this way when your like me and prolly 99% of everyone else you can just open your File manager and open the "Backup" folder and install from there, instead of searching one by one from market, and waiting for it to download and then install...

[Q] Just rooted and which ROM to try?

All,
Finally decided to root yesterday and have been monitoring the ROM's in the development section. I'm torn between the CyanogenMod and Iced Glacier. From what I'm reading the CyanogenMod is still a RC and not official yet and Iced Glacier is still using the sense interface.
I use this phone for work ie Touchdown and need something super stable that won't crash on me every other day. What ROM would you recommend that I try? Some keys for me is stability, dialer is functional(hated the MT4G dialer), contacts, camera and Touchdown definitely will need to work.
Thanks for any info.
I'm using iced and no issues. Everything works. Jus flash gorrillas latest kernel with it. I believe its 1.02? V.5(the one that came with the iced rom) froze on me alot when I oc past 1.4
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
The best answer is to make a nandroid backup, and try all of the roms. They're all pretty damn stable at this point, its just a matter of personal opinion. CM6 is still an RC, but a lot of people, myself included, are using it ads their daily driver with no issues at all.
I have been using the CM RC2 as of now .. i didnt care much for the other ones due to it was exactly like what i had already .. with the apps removed and so fourth .. seemed like a lot of setup for nothing .. and with cyanogen rom it is not the same stock ROM .. different. This has his settings, which i like. I think this may be the version where people are saying video playback has been an issue and i have had absolutely no issues with the video playback thru stock player or youtube at all .. no forces closes and everything seems to be working fine with this one so far.
But ya the best advice has already been said .. try them all ... thats what people do when they arent sure about something .. they try it .. obviously what i did . or i couldnt tell you about it.
Thanks all! I think I'm going to be trying the CM ROM. Thanks for all the advice.
dont know what im doing
i dont know what i'm doing, but i do believe i rooted my phone, downloaded titanium back, rom manager, visionary super user, setcpu, and super user. but cant seem to get my phone in recovery screen mode. please help

[Q] Restore to factory WM stock after Andriod installed

Too many things are not working. And the phone is super slow.
How do I restore a HD2 with android installed back to Windows Mobile stock version? Can you please point me to Wiki, I am looking but I cannot find it.
Thanks,
Download your stock ROM and flash it via SD card - this way, everything will be back to factory status.
Just check the stickies in the WinMo thread, you´ll quickly find what you need.
If this is done will HTC know it has been using Android NAND? So could a phone be sent for repair if this is done?

Well first of all which Android rom did you use?
Did you try others?
Did you read the roms thread for tweaks/fixes?
Some roms can make your device run faster and better then Windows Mobile, You have obviously not tried variosu roms and just gave up after 5 minutes.
You should take your time and try some of the lighter Android roms like NexusHD2 or maybe a CM7 based rom. What you ahve probably tried is a full on DHD sense rom which (at first) will be laggy until OS has had time to settle down and also a few reboots.
I have been using Android since I had my HD1 and more or less since day1 on my HD2, Ive used many roms (thats teh fun part) and have not had a problem overall of slow or too many things not working, It all depends on the rom you use and if you tweak/fix or not.

Latest/ best current Ginger Mod for A953?

Hi,
I've successfully modded my MS2 yesterday using (walter's?) "ms2ginger-rc2". It's been quite easy - I expected it to be much more difficult.
Unfortunately it's impossible to add accounts (app crashs). Therefore I plan to roll back to the sysbackup Imade before with Clockworkmod and to re-mod it with a newer/ better/ more stable variant.
Can you suggest one that you are happy with? I am fine with Blur - it can be included.
Anything to keep in mind for the rollback? Just revert to the backup via the bootloader?
CU,
Meszi.

i have tried CM7 and was before using it on BackFlip, but on Milestone 2 i am really loving MIUI its great ROM.
The problem is as i saw no one who is maintaining these CM7 or MIUI rom is not Dev, so i kinda think Milestone 2 can perform better with some optimalisation for it. The reason is as far as Stock Froyo was slow, CM7 and MIUI did not show kinda speed progress or increase i guess it is performing same as stock ROM or maybe little but only little better, on BackFlip there was really dramatic speed change on CM7 but the dev around BF was more active then on Milestone and i am happy with what we have already.
As far as I know, the MIUI is the latest one. But that's just because endles7's ( the guy who is porting CM7 to M2) phone is bricked at the moment.
Both, CM7 and MIUI are great ROMs, but, at least for now, if you're looking for the newest one, then MIUI is the one for.
I believe that CM7 will be supported again soon, there is a movement on the forum to buy endles7 a new one if his is really bricked forever.
I'm using MIUI because o like the interface better.
Hope it helped =)
Upgraded to "ms2ginger 1.1" but still problems with accounts management
Hi,
I reverted to Froyo, reloaded the backup I had done with Clockworkmod, made an app backup using Titanium and re-modded the device to "ms2ginger 1.1". But still there is the same issue with accounts ("Konten" in German): When trying to add an account the app crashes.
I am fine with the rest ... it works far faster than with Froyo.
Is there a way to get accounts/"Konten" work again? Probably by finding it in the Titanium backup and taking the old app or by (re)installing some working .apk?
At the moment I am still very new to this topic ... until last week I still believed in the myth having bought an "unmoddable" device.
I'd try CM7, too ... but if it's possible to have it done with "ms2ginger" I'd at first prefer trying it that way.
Any suggestions?
CU,
Mészi.
after trying cm7, i really prefer MIUI Rom on A953 !
but Cyanogen team will soon release a 2.3.7 Rom ... so we'll see !
Switching from MS2Ginger to CM7 Nightly
Sorry, if it appears to be a dumb question. But at the moment I am still very new to this topic and want to avoid bricking the device by forgetting a thing when switching from "MS2Ginger 1.1" to some CM7 ROM...
When reading the installation steps of the nightly build (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239778)...
*START copy&paste*
[How to Install]:
1. Download all in one update.zip
2. Make sure you have CWM3.x/4.x working. Or download from here.
3. select all in one.zip then apply update.
4. double wipe(if you are coming from previous CM7 version,just wipe cache/dalvik)
5. For CWM4.x, reboot and done.
For CWM3.x, download fixed-sbf and flash it. Then done.
*END copy&paste*
...it's not plain to me if I needed to switch back to the official Froyo or if "updating" with the all in one.zip and wiping the data would be sufficient to get rid of the previous "MS2Ginger". :-/
Any recommendations?
CU,
Mészi.
Do you try with "RSD Lite" software to put the stock Rom ?
and then you do the update to the custom rom ... no brick with this method i think ! but i'm not expert sorry !

That's the question.
If it's not necessary I'd directly load the CM7 ROM using CWM.
But, anyway: As long as I can access the boot loader (PowerOn + Cam + VolDown) I could still revert to the official Froyo if updating to CM7 directly would not work.
I think I just give it a try...
CU,
Mészi.
exactly ... i was afraid last friday while updating my stock rom for MIUI ... my battery goes out !
all day i was thinking that my lovely Milestone was bricked ... but with "rsd lite" i re-install my original froyo ... and then i could re-root it and put the miui version !
last version is perfect ! just the problem of keyboard layout but there is a script who put it back to azerty ...
have a good luck for your update !
++
So you would recommend downgrading to the official Froyo at first? *somewhat confused* :-/
Sent from my MB953 using XDA App
... i don't really know ... just said that for me that was the only way to rescue my bootlooping m2 !
normaly you can update from any rom, just don't forget to clear cache, "dalvik cache" too (don't remeber the name) ...
the best is to do a factory reset before rebooting too ... but it's not always necessary ... from miui 1.09.23 to miui 1.10.8 i don't have to do it ...
they don't talk about it in the related post of your rom ?
Ok, thx. I am gonna just try it wiping the cache and overwriting the ROM. ROM switching is not relly described in the MS2Ginger HowTos. *g*
Will post my results here...

Worked w/o any problems
Hi there,
I just "updated" my MS2 from "ms2ginger 1.1" to "EndlessCM7_20111001_Nightly_BPSW_v1_0" without any problems.

Problems with CM/ Nightly
Hi there,
I am half-way about to throw it away again.
I installed EndlessCM7_20111001_Nightly_BPSW_v1_0.zip and then EndlessCM7_update_from_111001_to_111004_v1_5.zip and it appeared to work fine.
But I had to recognize an instable Market app, WiFi cannot connect to my access point and the camera app crashes reliably after starting it.
I will post this in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239778 too hoping that these are known issues with known solutions on it.
If anyone of you knows I'd be glad if you threw some suggestions at me.

O well....
For me, MIUI is workind perfectlly, without any problems.
And, my battery life increased alot with the latest build of it
So i would recommend it.

[Q] reverting back to htc standard stock

Hiya all.
Due to devilment, I had to go through the process of s-offing my phone and rooting my phone and installing another rom.
After a few hours of cobbling about and slight hair loss !~ I managed to get s off etc and installed the latest cyanogen software. Such fun !~
Now whilst I think this is a fab piece of software and I enjoy trying things out, I find this quite unstable to use. I havent changed any settings or overclocked it etc but I want rid of it ~! The sounds keeps going, icons dissappear , it lags , it freezes and all manner of things. I need to at least use the phone.
So, my question is can someone point me in the direction of a proper and correct version of the htc wildfire uk rom so I can reinstall it again. If I use what you recommend, will it become s-on again and unrooted?
I dont actually think I made a back up of my original software, at least I cant find one unless it was automated.
Thanks so much

Mine is very stable, but if you do want it a lot go here, select Android > Buzz > and select which one you need. I recommend getting the latest radio which should be 13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10.
So do we know if I do that will it will still be rooted and s-off after all my hard work getting it there !lol
