Or is it a completly different mainboard ?
No such thing in Hero terms - that's a Magic thing.

i got the MAGIC,think ab up rom to HERO rom,can u guys tell me,when i up to HERO rom,i can do 100% wat the ORIGINAL HTC HERO have?or it will miss something?thanks alot,waiting for ur reply.
yes, it has all the features, they just may not be working... you'll just have to be patient on that front...
the hero actually is not even compatible with 3g in the US, so technically once the ROMs are perfect, you'll have more features, but if you have a 32b version magic, then it'll be slower than the hero...
the magic 32a version and hero are basically the same minus the camera, so performance should be good if it is a 32a
How do i know if it is 32A or B?i have mytouch from US TMOBILE

You have a 32b.

Hello all,
I've question to you about RAM of this device. Does its have 288mb or 192? I've read that magic from UK Vodafone has only 192, could you help me? I've bought it and waiting for delivery... In the auction was written that it has 288mb but truely Im not sure it's true. Thanks guys.
I have one from Vodafone Germany and it only has 192 megs.
We do have the 192MB, also known as the 32B hardware, which kinda sucks. On the bright side however, most of the HTC Magic's are like this, and most ROMs are built for these phones.
hm. thx
Do you know how to check it? Is it 32A or B?
Ok I know everything. So tell me one thing, using hero roms will be slower than in 32A? And official HTC sense will be realesed for this type or only for A which has more ram?
A Hero Rom on 32B will be slower - I have yet to find one that is at least acceptable for everyday use. Currently I stick to the Dwang-Android-1.6-Rom (with Hero theme).
And one more thing: Afaik there are still issues in every available HERO-Rom for the 32A/B regarding Bluetooth.
The official HTC sense will be released for the 32A - it is possible that we may receive an official update from Vodafone someday though. But I hope that we see an unofficial Version for the 32B in this forum soon after the official release.
hm.. so its a little problem with sense...
Ok, I've bought this phone (it arrived today). On auction guy wrote that it has 288mb... So I think I can send it back to him and buy 32A... But in Poland I didnt saw white Magic which was not from Vodafone.
What do you guys think? What to do I really like hero software but I dont like it design(look of phone) - its main reason that I didnt bought Hero.

Don't let the Hero blues get you down. I have an HTC Magic 192mb (32B) here in Germany and I am running a fast Hero ROM... MDHERO.. you can download it from this very site! So when people tell you Hero will run slow.. please ignore them.. they haven't tried EVERY ROM in order to find that out. Download the MDHERO ROM and be happy.. like me. You can peek at my Youtube vid and see for yourself:

Does Bluetooth work? And I mean really work - not just connecting with no sound...
And how often do you reboot? Of course I didn't try EVERY HERO image - but the ones I tried got slower with each hour...
I would be more than happy to give it a try - but no BT simply means no Hero for me
Thx for your answer blackvyper. So I will stay with this one.
so I have been looking around at mt3g roms and noticed that there is a 32b and 32a version. From what I have been told all mt3g's were 32a.
so my question is what is the difference between mt3g 32b and dream 32b?
no, all MT3G's are 32B. it is because their PVT board is different. Magics are 32A and have more ram, while MT3G's are 32B and have a little less ram
oshizzle's correct. And to further elaborate on your question "the differences between mt3g 32b and dream 32b", the mytouch has 512 megs of ROM while the dream has 256 megs of ROM (storage space, not to be confused with RAM).
Erm ... that's not correct ... for example HTC Magics in the UK use 32B boards ... but they are called HTC Magic on Vodafone, not MT3G.
AFAIK The correct way to tell is from the branding on the battery cover, the Google branded phones "with Google" are all 32B. HTC Branded phones are 32A.

not trying to be rude, but didn't you just contradict yourself when you said this?

I don't think you explained yourself very well. It might confuse some people.
either way, i think we have either totally confused the OP, or fried his brain by how knowledgeable we all are haha

I see your point, I'll explain in a more concise way:
MyTouch3G does not exist in the UK. You can buy an HTC Magic here on Vodafone but it is a 32B board.
I hope the OP is not too confused!
all MyTouch 3G's are 32B. Some HTC Magics are also 32B in europe, depending on which one you get. The 32B version has 192mb RAM instead of 288MB RAM, and a slightly different processor.
I dont think there is a 32A or 32B dream.
When looking at the specifications of the HTC Hero and the HTC Magic (32A), they seem virtually identical? The only difference is the jack and camera?
So, I was wondering, does a HTC Hero update work on a HTC Magic (32A)? Or will it brick the phone or something?
To me it seems likely it should work fine, except the camera, but just wondering if anyone has tried this or know what the result would be.
It won't work. Just wait a few more days, the official 2.1 update for the Magic should be just around the corner.

Jeez. Why does this question keep coming up?
It's a 32b with 32a memory. That's it.
EVERYTHING you need would be for 32b devices. If you use anything made 32a you may brick your device in the process.
