Android 1.6 Update? - myTouch 3G, Magic General

I have an unlocked HTC Vodafone Magic (sapphire) on the English network O2.
When I go to download 1.6 from "About Phone", the 46mb file appears to download, but then nothing happens.
I tried a manual update as per:
http://androidbloke.co.uk/manually-update-to-1-6-donut-on-t-mobile-g1-or-vodafone-magic/
But I got the error:
E:No signature (294 files)
Help!

Do any of you very smart guys know of a fairly quick way to to manually get a 1.6 update?
If anyone can help little old me that would be really nice.

im not on that carrier. but from what you are saying it should work.
maybe give a shout to the carrier at their stores or call them?

Looks like you have the same Problem as i have. Check if your GSM-Module is still doing: You have to get into the Bootloader and check if it says "GSM OK" (then you are a lucky owner) or if it says "GSM Error" (then you´ve got the same problem as I´ve got). If it is the second case: Try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=1182&highlight=solved+gsm+error
Or this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4123&highlight=screen+1
But i need to say that these tips haven´t helped me out of this Prob. I hope it will help you!
So long...
no error any where GSM OK
NO HANGS every thing is fine.
Where can i down load ATT .20 RSU
I downloaded the rsu for ATT from yorch.net and now its getting signals.

Help please - MDA Compact not booting up

Hello everyone! I really, really hope you can help me!
I have a T-Mobile MDA Compact. I was upgrading the ROM version tonight to the latest version (blackberry version) My MDA would appear to have crashed mid-way through the upgrade. The upgrade software told me to reset the device and try the upgrade again. So I reset the device.. all I get on the screen is "USB V1" and when I select the new rom file I get an error which says "Error 120: Country ID Error N-N-38-38-38" The ROM image that you are trying to use is not designed to work on your device. Please check the vender Website and download the correct ROM update.
This is the correct ROM update. I'm using a T-Mobile branded handset the update is definitely a T-Mobile update. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? is there another update or even a completely new ROM version I can use to get my phone working again? It's the only phone I've got and I urgently need it for work
Thanks, Tom :?
OK so now it loads up and gets as far as 'loading config txt' and then it just sits there. Again I try the rom update but I'm told ROM is wrong for my device.
Hi Tom,
Use maupgradenoid.exe or a simular named program from the ftp over here. Maybe you have to run it twice to bypass your error. Use the program instead of the, probably named maupgrade, .exe which you get when you unzip your shipped rom. No need to zip it again, just unzip into an empty folder put the maupgradenoid.exe in the same folder. Put your device in bootloader (camera & power & soft-reset until it reads serial v1) connect it to usb, now it reads usb v1 & run this noid.exe.
Good luck, M
Ps. sometimes you need to add or change a line in config.txt, you can find that in one of the latest posts by parklife in
the thread about the official TMO 1.13 rom

Incase you upgraded to a new T-Mobile ROM, i think you can take it to the T-Mobile store for fixing.
Perfect!! That seems to have worked!! Thank you!!!
THANKS
I had the same problem and I follow your instruction and it'goes perfectly fine.... My phone is now alive again
THANKSSSSSSSSS

Vodafone V1640 ROM error

Not being a pc/phone buff I wondered if any of you guys can help me?
I bought a Vodafone V1640 that had O2 software on it. Firstly is this ok? Should it have had Vodafone software on it? Second, I sold the phone on eBay beause it did not match my needs or critera and now the person that bought it is saying there is a ROM error showing and that I had originally bought a duff phone. This I cannot understand, as when I received the phone, I charged it and made sure that it was in perfect working ordered. This was over a peroid of about 2-3 hours and no error showed on the phone what so ever. It actually came sealed as if it had come straight from Vodafone as an upgrade maybe.
I cannot understand why this error messgae is now showing and upon asking an IT collegue at work he has suggested that this person had maybe tried to load new software on to the phone therefore the ROM error being apparent.
Does anyone have any idea why the phone may only now be showing this error? I can assure you all that I did nothing to the phone as it was only out of the box for a few hours before I decided that it wasn't for me.
Thanks in advance for anyone that can help.
:roll:
what error is showing.
i have a vodafone unit, but have flashed various roms without problems.
i am currently on the latest i-mate.

Hi Steve
Thanks for replying.
I've got no idea what kind of ROM error is showing on the item as it is no longer in my possession. I am trying to contact my eBay buyer to find out exactly what message is showing and when.
What exactly is a ROM error anyway? As I stated previously, the phone was on for btween 2-3 hours and showed no signs of soft/hard ware damage. How do Rom error's occur?
Sorry to sound so vague and amateurish!!
I am no expert and have only been playing with these things for 9 months, but the only time I have ever seen ROM error is when i have been trying to flash a different ROM to my device, e.g the imate version to my vodafone machine.
Ask him what he did, what the error says and what he can see on the screen.Read the guide to installing a ROM and you can see what happens.
ROMs for specific versions such as imate will not flash to others such as vodafone unless you use a specific .exe file (the no id upgrade one).
If you try you will get an error, and sometimes you can get the machine up and running, other times you get a brick which can take time to get back to life.

can't update firmware on my cdma hero

I have been trying now for almost a fully day to update my hero. I was receiving error 67s and then error 1012. I have been on the phone with customer call all this morning and they tried to reset my phone from the network. Then i was locked out of any data on my phone until the manger corrected my AAA password. Now I can still browse the internet and use other data required applications, but my phone still does not see the new firmware update. Has anyone else had similar problems?
I have 2 stock Sprint Hero phones that I have been trying to update that get stuck at 11% when downloading. Went to my local sprint store and they said it was a problem with the network in our area, North Louisiana.
I used the FRESH 0.4 rom on mine and everything is great.
Yep - I've been getting error 1012 all day. It doesn't even see the update. My Hero is stock rom and not rooted yet. I was waiting to see what kind of updates Sprint and HTC would push before rooting.
**edited i'm in oregon fwiw
whats the firmware version currently? I heard rummers it has something to do with having the early productions that ended in 1.22 instead of 1.29. Mine was a 1.22 as I got it before the official launch. I used the ruu with the launch software and the OTA update went thru with no issues
Dunno - I am looking at software version: 1.29.651.1
build is: CL69164
okay that is the launch release software version. do you get error 1012 when getting on the internet? do you have wifi turned on? Try it with the wi-fi radio off. if you cant get on browser then go to update profile. If you still get error 1012 then you could contact sprint or try doing a data restore the code is ##3282# and you need the msl
Same problem.
Running Software version starting with 1.29
My wifi radio is off, everything else works perfectly I just can't get the update.
I am no expert on this by any means but...
I had rooted mine and it would never even receive the update. Then I ran the RUU utitlity which takes it back to "right out of the box" stage.
Then I was able to get the update immediately. Try that
I did a reboot was able to apply the update. YMMV.
