Hello all,
I have a htc Magic which I bought from India with the following description.
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0010 (SAP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.20.17

Now I was able to root the phone using the One Click Root Method and I was able to Install Amon Ra's ROM and it works perfectly. however I was wondering if I could possibly give the Cyanogen ROM a try too. However I'm a bit confused with the instructions especially since I'm quite new to this.
This guide will tell you how to upgrade from an older (< 4.1.99) version of CyanogenMod to the latest and greatest versions!
Note: it is recommended that if you are on an older version of cm-recovery (< 1.4) you upgrade to cm-recovery-1.4.img (32a users make sure you upgrade to amonra's latest H recovery)
Installation instructions for an HTC Dream/ADP1/G1 and HTC Magic/ION/MT3G:
1. Download either:
* Dream/G1 users download this: Android 1.6 Recovery Image. (This isn’t like a typical "recovery" image we know -- it’s simply HTCs version of an update.zip.) Download Mirrors
* Magic32A and Magic32B users: Download this DRC83_base_defanged.zip
2. Download Cyanogen's ROM latest version
3. Magic32A and Rogers Dream users: Download the 32A/EBI1 kernel latest version
4. Mount your phone and place BOTH the image from step 1 and Cyanogen's ROM (as well as the EBI1/32A port file, if applicable) in the root directory of your SD Card.
5. Turn your phone off.
6. Hold the Home and Power buttons to get to Recovery Mode.
7. Perform a Nandroid backup if you'd like to (optional, but highly recommended).
8. If you want, perform a full Wipe -- this will sometimes allow Google apps to function correctly, if problems arise (optional).
9. If you don't perform a full wipe, it is recommended to clear the dalvik-cache directory (from console or adb shell in recovery):

Here are the instructions I found for "Upgrading From Older CyanogenMod or other rooted ROMs" . Would it be correct to assume that I have to follow the above guide? Also I have Amon Ra's recovery image installed on my phone. I believe the version is 1.5.2H . Can I perform the above install using this recovery image?
Finally the files I have to download and install are
DRC83_base_defanged.zip
Download Cyanogen's ROM latest version
32A/EBI1 kernel latest version
Would that be correct? Thanks in advance and sorry if the questions are quite silly.
I installed this ROM too (Perfect SPL as yours) and even earlier recovery (RA 1.2.3) and there were no problems.
1. Recovery mode, if you haven't done nandroid backup yet (your original ROM), then do this.
2. Choose "wipe data".
3. Apply .zip files which you listed above in this order: base, cyan mod, and port 32a.
4. Reboot and enjoy
Thank you much! Im on Cyanogen Mod as of now. Thanks to all you folk who dedicated their time to allow us to use our devices the way we want.
Cheers .
hi everybody!
some days ago i flashed my magic (TIM Italy, so 32A) whit the Magic_Rogers3.54.631.3 rom, that was a ruu exe file.
It flashed my spl and radio, that now are hboot-1.76.0010 (SAPP10000) and 6.35.16.19.
Now i wanted to change rom because of the language (i'm not able to put an italian dictionary when i write), but i don't succeed.. i tried to reflash the recovery, but i can't because fastboot says that is not possible to send data to the phone, so i can't also boot some recovery image.. same problem via adb or via terminal on the phone.
i rooted the phone with the last universal androot, but it's the same..
i succeeded to change recovery only with rom manager, but the phone doesn't go in recovery mode (it's still on the "rogers" splash screen), or if it goes, it reboot alone after a few seconds.
oh, at last, i'm not able to flash other rom, like the RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_3.05.401.1_test_signed_NoDriver or my original TIM rom.
I'll be really grateful to who will help me!!
thanks for reading!
download this application FlashRec
install it to your device
then download any of Amon_RA recovery imgs (HERE) (Choose the correct one for your device)
then push it to your sdcard
then open the FlashRec and press backup,
then write in the blank box "sdcard/xxxxx.img"
where xxxxx is the name of the img you pushed to your SD
then press flash .. if it is successful, connect your phone to adb
and write "adb shell reboot recovery"
I tried this on 32A 1.33.0010 and Radio 3.22,
I'm NOT 100% sure it will work with you,
try it at your own risk.
it says "phone type is EBI1/32A"
i press backup with or without the name in the box,and the result is
"backup failed: could not run command."

it is not possible to flash or backup with flashrec. the new roms are bugfixed.

me too... but the htc magic 32a with the actual stock rom, android 1.5 with sense form january, is already bugfixed.
Moving to General
sorry for the mistake, i thought it was the right section..
anyway i followed the guide in the post linked by renedlog and.. it worked!!! i didn't know where to put the flash_image file.. but it was written there.. so i did all, and now my rom is the RCMagic 5.0!
do you think it's good to try something different?
i use RCMagic 4.2
the version 5 is still a little buggy with the wake up from standby.
i will upgrade to an android 2.2 rom, if there is an update today for the 32B and hopefully it will be patched to my 32A.
yeah, i saw that bug.. it's really a pity, the rom was a little faster than the 4.2..
i suppose it would not be a big bug, so i hope somebody that is able will fix it!!
are there so big changes beetwen the 2.1 and 2.2?
Hello Everyone,
BasebandVersion: GAUSB1A111100-EU
ClockworkmodRecovery: 1.8.4
Froyo: Streak_315_12332_00.pkg
I want to install the official 2.2 Update for my Device, but i does not work, because i have the ClockworkmodRecovery, and this does not make use of the "Streak_315_12332_00.pkg"-File. Can someone please point me to the direction/howto how i get the update working.
Cheers in advance, Philip
I dont think you need to use clockwork recovery for getting official 2.2....
u cud probably try to update using the instructions here...which uses the 309.pkg thing....
http://www.streaksmart.com/2010/11/how-to-get-official-android-22-update-on-dell-streak.html
clockworkmod
cheers for your answer, but i want to first install the official 2.2 ... and i can't figure out a way howto do this with the ClockworkmodRecovery installed, because the ClockworkModRecovery tries to access an .zip and not an .pkg file
You need a stock dell recovery there are several threads on how to do this
ya you have to install the stock recovery which would be somewhere in this forum...
but in the event you use the method in the above link I posted you dont need to go to the clockwork recovery....u just flash the files on your computer and reboot normally...and u get 2.2...
then since u have clockwork recovery installed you could apply the performance fixes for 2.2...or else go to steve's 1.4.6...
hope this helps

flash this file using fastboot. its the 309 recovery thats been modded to allow the 12332 rom (which requires 315 recovery). then once your done, you can flash clockwork back on the same way.
the the streaksmart guide with the separated boot, amss, and system is the 11548 rom.
Solved
Hello everybody,
thanks for all the answers.
I solved it the following way:
- downloaded the original recovery.img for build 6267 for GAUSB1A111100-EU (attached below)
- flashed it with "fastboot flash recovery recovery6267.img"
- booted to recovery, reset to factory default
- booted, and then just followed the official update process
I guess a lot of you guys are now like "argh... torturing of a innocent device" ;-) but i didn't lose much, and it worked.
my specs before update:
dell streak unlocked bought at "media markt"
Basebandversion: GAUSB1A111100-EU
OEMversion: GAUSB1A111100
BuildNumber: 6267
my specs after update:
still dell streak unlocked bought at "media markt"
Basebandversion: GAUSB1A131500-EU
OEMversion: GAUSB1A131500
BuildNumber: 12332
Any "newbies" like me, having the same specs, feel free to pm me
alright so i also have a streak with baseband GAUSB1A111100-EU build 6267.
and i'm trying to flash it the same way, but the stock recovery build 6267 won't flash.
when i flash it with fastboot it says on my streak: flash write fail and in cmd( after i pull the usb out) it say: writing 'recovery'... FAILED <status read failed <too many links>>
i have tried various recoveries which i found on this forum, and with other recovery's it works instantly. But i can't get past the black screen in recovery mode, or the dell logo if i'm trying to update it the normal way.
so can anybody help me out? or point me at the right direction
Solved: all i had to do was flash boot.img and then it worked perfectly with the 309 recovery.

I'm slightly worried with Lenovo...last time I tried to upgrade rom from rooted stock Kitkat to stock lollypop, my phone got bricked.
I've never faced such silly issues with my earlier phones i.e. Samsung Galaxy 3 , Galaxy Nexus, Xolo etc.
I need a step by step process so that I can successfully go back to to stock and then take the phone to service center as there is some issue with Vibration

Then flash a stock recovery of kk or LP.

I think you need to get the stock recovery image and flash it from the ROM image in the "convert cn to ww" thread.
