General Questions...Coming over from G1 - myTouch 3G, Magic General

I've seen a lot of different recovery images and not sure if you need to upgrade recovery image to flash a new rom. Is there a universal spl and radio you need like the g1 had ? Here's my stats from hboot menu

Do I have the correct spl to run hero ??? I know the radio is correct I compared to the hboot on my g1 but the spl is different ? Also I'm assuming I'm rooted since I can use adb commands on the phone not sure can anyone help confirm ? All this "one click" stuff seems easy but seems more difficult to me lol at least on my g1 I had to do work and knew when something wasn't working right or not lol but any help and input i recieve is greatly appreciated thanx

what is your spl?
should be eng. spl that ends in .2005 or .2003. If you have that spl then u flash any rom u want. If you have a perfect spl that ends with .2006 (i think) u need to create a gold card and downgrade your spl to an engerneering one. As for recovery i recomend this one

O and to check if you have engneering spl, you can access fastboot by turning on your phone while holding down VOLUME DOWN and see if it lets u get access. If it does, press Back, connect to your computer through USB and flash the recovery through fastboot.
Good luck!

That's what happened to mine too. Good luck gettin any answers though. It's hella saddity in the sap forum. I don't think it really makes any difference. Still functions same as before. Only thing I've noticed is that I get lag now after changing my SPL.

[REQ] Root 1.33.0007 SPL 32B $$$

So it seems that for the MT3G this SPL cannot be rooted. I was hoping to shake this up abit since no info has come up yet new for this and I know a couple of people who have this same SPL. I am willing to donate $20 to anyone who can find a way to root this. I know its not alot but its something.
Yes its on 1.6, tried various .nbh files and .zip files as listed in the forum with a gold card. Please dont flame, I just want to enjoy a rooted MT3G.
sorry, i'm not entirely familiar with this problem: what doesn't work - can you flash something like Engineering SPL1.33.2010 onto it? what happens when you try flashing a recovery via flashrec?
I started with "Hboot-1.33.0007(SAPP10000)" and now i have EngineeringSPL + Cyanogen, an other Splash than the vodafone one ... So why shouldn´t this be possible?

I have tried the following methods...
sappimg.zip + goldcard
Model ID incorrect!
Update Fail!
SAPPIMG.nbh
Main Version is older!
I cannot use flashrec.apk for obvious reasons, I always get an error since I'm on 1.6. Anyone got any better suggestions?
@skhell: Reboot for you "Engineering SPL 1.33.2005"
If you are on Android 1.6 - flash sappimg.nbh with Android 1.5 first. The one you need can be found in this forum. Search for the post with this title:
"sappimg.nbh for Vodafone PVT 32B Devices"
(sorry, I am not allowed to post any links apparently )
It's a Vodafone image with spl 1.33.0007 - so it's same as yours, and it will flash with no errors - no gold card needed.
Then use one click method as decribed in theunlockr.com or elsewhere.
Then you can flash "Engineering SPL 1.33.2005"
It worked very well with my HTC Magic from Vodafone Germany

Same Issue
I have the exact same hboot info on a replacement MT3G running factory 1.6 build DRC92.
From what I have read it is unrootable at this time. Others have said that we have to wait for a later build with a non-perfect SPL.
1.33.0007 is a perfect SPL, which normally isnt a problem, but combining that with the DRC92 build makes it troublesome.

Downgraded with right nbh (sappimg.nbh), then installed flashrec.apk ... With that app i get a modified recovery-image installed and then i could flash rom/spl with modified recovery
Really easy
Kind of off topic, but I'm picking up a MT3G this weekend, and I didn't know there's such a thing as unrootable. Is this true? I thought they've all been figured out by now.
Supposedly there isnt such a thing as an unrootable MT3G but I sure am stuck.
I root'd my original MT3G but ended up with a replacement that I just cant get root on.
I think I am going to start a new thread. Apparently I overlooked that the thread was corrected to read 2007, not 0007.
In any case I get same errors, incorrect model id, main version older, etc.
People say they used sappimg.nbh to root the 1.33.0007 (SAPP30000) DRC92 but no one ever posts a link to the sappimg.nbh that they used. There are more than one out there, just in case people didnt notice that.
I have tried roughly 10 different .nbh's, made sure the md5 matched when applicable, tried each with and without the Goldcard, and even found the default recovery mode where I tried them again as .zip's (hold home + power until the exclamation then hit the home + power again).
I even did a hard reset and tried again. Nothing...
I do have the sdk, adb and fastboot working. Able to connect via usb, issue some commands, and list the devices. Try to push an install and get remote not allowed.
I am getting used to no-root but I dont like it. I want my old rootable phone back...
Im in the same boat as you are..
Cant seem to root my 1.33.0007/DCR92. I have tried about everything in this forum..
Hopefully something will hit soon.

Yes, if you have an engineering SPL, which you do not. You'll need to flash a stock ROM.
do not flash an eng spl. Our phones do not run on anything other then stock radio and spl. Also, even though it is a 32a board, only g1 /32b roms and recoveries work.
What happened to you makes no sense unless your leaving something out or tried to flash an ota Rom.
Take battery out, put it back in /hold home and power, should go into recovery. If not, I would say follow my guide in Sig to start over but you'll probably screw up on flashing the radio and spl.
you flashed a wrong radio, man

lol Oops Didnt catch that. HEs right, you have the G1 radio going. Ours should be .12 at the end... I think lol. I havent had to mess with it for a while since Universal Androot works now. But again, you may want to start over if you know what your doing. Otherwise, time to go get a replacement because flashing the radio and spl, your probably going to brick it anyway.

Umm..what?
Your radio/SPL are fine. As for your situation, did you root using the goldcard method? If you did, try doing it over and see if it'll let you into fastboot after loading the engineering sappimg.

Some roms take 10-15 min to boot up so you just gota have patience .
Also, any roms built with a Cyan kernel after 5.0.8 will work on our phones also.
IS the location working on that rom for you?
When it first cam eout I used it for months with no problems.. but then I tried to go back a few days ago and the weather/clock will not find me.
yeah with wifi it picks up my location for the weather just fine

You wont belive it but this f***in ohone has just gone and done the same problem again.....
I was charging it then powered off the device then turned it on after 30mins and its now stuck on the HBOOT screen AGAIN - grrrrrr i cant belive this thing
So now im completey stuck again - if this happens everything i charge this thing then thats not gonna be cool.
Im trying this method here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734617 , posted by DonJuan692006
but because the phone cant boot up into the OS adb doesnt see it as list of devices so i cant do the goldcard and start again.....
hmmmm i might throw this thing outta the window
Without a goldcard your not going to be able to go that route. If you've still got your Hero, you can use it to make the goldcard, or any Android powered device for that matter. Maybe just wait it out and see if it just starts working as before?
i have a successful goldcard.img from my Hero will take be ok to use for the Fender you thinks ?
damm-it just tried that and SAPPIMG gives an Incorrect Model ID - because im using the Hero goldcard
damm i dont know what else to try
does anyone have a Fender Goldcard img they would like to share with me - proberly wont work but you never know i might get lucky
cheers

First combo, we could have helped you out...
But the second combo... ooohhh... bad one...

Try to flash the sappimg.zip that gave you the first spl version (1.33.2010).
If you get that back, then we can work out the rest pretty easy!

Are you trying to intentionally brick your friends phone?
[RANT]
I'm guessing that you didn't do much reading before actually messing with his phone did you?
MyTouch 1.2 (aka Fender, aka LE) w/3.5mm headphone jack
Ultimate Guide: How to root myTouch 1.2/LE Fender (3.5mm jack)
Look, I'm not trying to give anyone a hard time but this is exactly what I was talking about a few days ago.
There is so much confusion over this device! It's not hard! Anyone that thinks that is is should have been around when the device first came out! DAMN THAT WAS ROUGH! But it was a learning experience. And through that learning experience we made apps (Androot) and guides and stickies JUST FOR THIS! Yet... how does this keep happening??? Someone explain it to me... please. I'm desperate to know.
[/RANT]
With that said... you are going to have to use a goldcard now that you have S-ON, still not rooted, no custom recovery, etc. You won't be able to boot the phone up because you are DEFINITLY using the wrong radio. You'll be lucky if you didn't completely brick it already.
Use the links above to create a goldcard. I'll warn you that this can be a pain in the butt ( not to mention that some sdcards are notorious for not working at all for this method!) because it requires getting ANOTHER android phone, putting the sdcard in to get the serial number of the sdcard (unless someone knows another way to get it), entering the code into a website to get the goldcard image e-mailed to you then using a hex editor to copy the bootsectors of that goldcard image enter the code into the hardware of the sdcard via card reader so you can use the freshly made goldcard, then all that's left is dowloading the right sappimg.zip file, placing it on the root of the sdcard and booting into the bootloader. You would flash the goldcard image At that point you will be have the Engineering (S-OFF) SPL again and the CORRECT radio. Once that is done you only need to fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (G type, not H)
Then flash the stock SPL back.
Then you will be free to flash a 32B type rom through recovery.
After you have done ALL OF THAT! Your friend might spare your life.
Here... try something like this. Maybe you can find someone to help.

You need a few things.
1. goldcard
2. A sappimg.zip with a higher version than what you have with an Eng spl. (Preferably for 32b)
3. Time, patience
4. Luck
All of these are easy to find or get besides time, patience, and luck
Im currently looking for sappimg.zip that contains the required criteria. I will post after flash attempt...

I forgot to mention a common occurance since I lost custom recovery and custom rooted rom, ect.
the "goldcard-sappimg-flash" process freezes or hangs at [4] SYSTEM during the unzipping portion
As you have MT3G v1.2 / Fender - it is too hard to restore your phone after your faulty actions. You bricked your phone, when flashed inappropriate hboot and radio

That post seems to be talking about mismatched radio and spl. His match, but are the wrong ones. He should be able to flash a sappimg.zip to get an Eng spl and fix from there
Ironically, the thread you have suggested is the first thread I followed to configure my device for the "carz" latest custom rom.
Is there a way around the "unzipping hang" that happens during system partition portion of RUU_Sapphire_Rogers_WWE_3.05.631.7_R_release_signed_NoDriver flash? I have also tried the goldcard method with extracted rom.zip of the mentioned RUU rom with same result.

Yeah, but solution is same. Sure, he can start from step 2, cause he has combo without mismatch between hboot and radio already.
And yes, should flash 2.53.707.2 to get special combo with eng spl and then return to stock.

I was having problems rooting my Rogers HTC Magic+. I used this method and it worked like a charm to get root, Eng SPL. After that I was able to flash custom recovery and ROMS.
The ROM in my Signature works really well.
Flash the original "RRU", then root with androot.apk from market, install rommanager from market and flash recovery, reboot recovery and flash the ENG spl
solved your problem yet? maybe i may help.
no... i have not solved my problem yet your help would be greatly appreciated

[Q] Is it possible to downgrade 1.33.0014 to 1.33.0013?

Can I downgrade from HBOOT-1.33.0014 to HBOOT-1.33.0013.
After updating hboot through HTC Unlock Bootloader hoping for benefits, now I can't flash some ROMs because not being at least 1.33.0013 or 1.33.0013d.
How can I revert to original spl?
This is my actual information:
myTouch 3G with 3.5mm jack (1.2) - White

Would appreciate any suggestion, thanks.
Solved!
1. Relocked the bootloader in fastboot using: fastboot oem lock.
2. Download misc-edited.img
http://www.4shared.com/file/M7NfPvFO/misc-edited.html
3. Copy misc-edited.img to sdcard
4. With Rom Manager installed type this in a terminal emulator.
# /data/data/com.koushikdutta.rommanager/files/flash_image misc /sdcard/misc-edited.img
5. After that use the stock-sappimg.zip. Rename it to sappimg.zip and copy it to the sdcard.

(stock android 1.6 sappimg for the mytouch 3g 3.55mm)
6. Turn off the phone and then press volume down + power button until bootloader shows. It should pick up the sappimg.zip and flash it.
7. Root with UniversalAndroot_1.5.3.apk (disable antivirus before download it)
http://www.4shared.com/android/ay4Js6MY/UniversalAndroot_153.html
8. Install ROM Manager 4.4.0.6 and flash a recovery.
http://www.4shared.com/android/87Z5gzSF/comkoushikduttarommanager.html
9. Reboot the phone.
10. Download radio 2.22.28.25 and flash it through recovery like any zip file.

11. Reboot the phone.

Good work! Now let's see you get S-OFF and an ENG SPL

Thanks, this is a tricky device and I don't have a clear idea in how to accomplish that in a safe environment. Do you think it's worth the chance? What are the practical benefits in doing so? For now I only know one bonus using ENG SPL in this device and that is erasing everything from fastboot (for that I use superwipe) but flashing still not possible, all other good commands are still excluded.
Please, make me wrong and make me a gift with your guidance.

Heh, I was just joking. What you really get with S-OFF and an ENG SPL are more ways to fix things and more ways to break things.
With S-OFF, the phone won't check the signatures of things you flash using HBOOT or fastboot, so you can get the phone to flash something that's been modified... but you can already do that if you have a custom recovery.
With ENG SPL, you can change just about every setting in the phone and access all of the fastboot commands without getting "remote not allow"... But, again, most of the things that you'd want to do (flashing a custom ROM) can be done with the custom recovery.
And, if I remember correctly, if you use an ENG SPL on a myTouch 1.2, you lose half of your available RAM, at least until you go back to a magic SPL.
I suggest making your life easy and not doing any of these things

That's what I thought too, better leave it unTouch. Thanks for your help.
Yes, using anything but 1.33.0013(d) spl and a newer radio will decrease available ram (by 18mb on 32b, and half on 1.2), and will break headphone Jack and other stuff on the 1.2 until you flash back.
Is that my misc-edited btw? just checked md5sums, seems to be. glad to see someone actually made use of it. you now have all the benefits of a goldcard, without going through the complicated process of making one.
Also, roms can probably be easily updated to support 1.33.0014 ), most likely a 1 line edit to the updater-script
Pmerced, could you dump your current misc partition for me? I have never had the opportunity to look at what happened to my edits after an update.

Here it is.
thank you.
it did exactly what i thought it would. it has the goldcard cid (you can flash any sappimg.zip or ruu), and it updated the main version like normal.

so . idon't know what i donig to install recovery she is tell me in fastboot (remot not allwo) i tired pleeeeeeeeeeez help me
i am using ubuntu 13.4 thanx for help and im so sorry
iam sorry for bad englsh
You can't flash from fastboot on this device unless you have an eng spl.
The normal process of getting a custom rom on the dream/sapphire is first rooting your stock rom, then flashing a recovery from there. Then you update radio/spl as needed and flash a rom.
I have never messed with the 1.33.0014 spl, but from what I've heard, it gives no benefit, just headache.
