Hi All,
I was looking at rooting my Rogers Dream. The guide I was planning to follow is the Full Update Guide - Rogers Dream EBI1 to CyanogenMod.
The only problem that I have with it is that the guide continuously mentions everything as for a 32A device. I believe that my device is a 32B. Here is what I get when I hold the camera button during boot.

Is is safe to follow the guide anyway? or is there another guide that I should be following to root my phone.
yeah follow that guide.
I did it a week ago and works without an issue.
Someone else asked yesterday and told him to follow that guide and he's all good.

"downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY
booting... OKAY"
after that the device's screen change from bootloader screen to "hami" screen (with something orange apple icon) and stuck there. T_T (wanna cryy..)
any one have solution for this? thank you very much in advance
Same here
Exactly the save versions as yours.
I got one from Vodacom in South Africa yesterday, and none of the rooting guides seem to work. I'm really only interested in "tethering" with my phone, as I'm often on the road with my laptop and haven't had a need to buy a second modem just yet. Was hoping I could use the Magic in the same way I used my Nokia.
Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried PDANet yet?
I had same problem , how i solve is to download the recovery.img and the update.zip from the following , you cannot use standard version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523913
you must ensure that you use update.zip from here else after the update you won't be able to start up.
first do download both
daldroid-htcmagic1-signed.zip and daldroid-recovery.img
and copy both to the sdcard follow same step
rename daldroid-htcmagic1-signed.zip to update.zip
restart in fast boot mode , and run command.
fastboot boot daldroid-recovery.img
hope this help.
Your HTC Magic is different than the HTC Magic from Vodafone.
HTC Magic from Rogers US, TIM Italy, 3 Scandinavia, Vodacom South Africa and more are the original HTC Magics from HTC - they have different SPL, Kernel.
So you can only root through the metod as stated above - Daldroid made it possible.
For the time beeing you can´t flash other roms than Daldroid´s with root, without trouble.
Incidentally, it seems that the Rogers Magic is quite a bit similar to this one...
The Rogers HTC Magic reports the following on the fastboot screen:

A rogers user reported success flashing his ROM.
go to the latest (as of current time) posts on the thread.
One user reported he successfully flashed a rom, but he had to change the SPL. As Rogers stock SPL and radio are newer than the flashed one, furthermore no spl image is available to restore the original, I suggest to follow the thread and verify the progress with a second user I asked to make some test.
I don't have Rogers myself, cannot test it for you.
Can anybody help ive followed all the magic rooting tutorials but when i enter fastboot boot recovery-new.img into terminal i get the following message "cannot load boot-new.img" i have all the drivers installed and have followed the wiki exact plus ive read every page of the rooting thread in the development page and searched the rest of this forum i have a uk vodaphone magic, cheers inadvanced

Alright, so here's what I've done so far.
-Grabbed Daldroid's "daldroid-recovery.img" and the signed rom, which was renamed to "update.zip".
-Copied both onto my SD card.
-Fastbooted my Rogers Magic using "fastboot boot daldroid-recovery.img"
-Performed a Nandroid backup
-Wiped the data
-Applied the "update.zip"
-Rebooted
I got the Rogers screen, then the HTC Magic screen, then the HTC chiming screen where it made me wait for a bit. Buttons flashed and voila, I am booted into a different rom (no Rogers crap).
I confirmed that after flashing, my device info still says HBOOT-1.33.0009. At no point did I attempt to flash Haykuro's SPL or change the radio, as it's still 3.22.20.17.
I think I'm doing things right, so hopefully this info helps
Edit: Tried flashing QTeknology's Optimized Hero Rom, and it hung on the Rogers screen for a long time (waited at least 5 min), but was able to revert to the Daldroid rom.
Edit2: It's the same situation for other roms, like nk02's ported Rogers rom. It looks like .0009 is a no-go.

I confirm that your rom version is working great on rogers htc magic. I have yet to test the wifi but rest is working great.

WIFI is also working. The phone works perfectly with this daldroid ROM.
damn...
i can't believe i'm this unlucky.
My phone is a brick at the moment and i need those images to try but megaupload is DOWN ! ! !
Does anyone of you have backup and can upload it to rapidshare? please?
I want to root the phone but am not sure the version I have and don't want to get it wrong, have searched here and with Google to no avail.
Details of phone are as follows:
Model # : HTC Dream
Firmware Ver : 1.5
Baseband Ver : 62.525.20.18U_3.22.20.17
Kernel Ver : [email protected] )
Build # : 1.86.421.1 146733 CL#47295 release-keys
Any ideas?
Judging by the radio version, I'd say rogers.
mmn, doesn't say Rogers anywhere, it's from Leaf in South Africa, the distributors of HTC phones here.
How would I know which RCxx file to use?

RCxx is for TMOBILE ONLY.
Funny that it would have the same radio version as a rogers phone. Check the frequencies used by that carrier for 3G -- if they're something like 850/1900 (I think that's the frequencies used by Rogers) rather than 1700/2100, then most likely the phone is physically identical to a rogers phone and rooting it would likely be a very similar procedure -- this has a lot to do with the SPL version, and since the radio version number is the same as for rogers, I suspect (note: I don't guarantee anything) that the same SPL's would be compatible.
thank you, lbcoder.
3G here appears to be 2100 MHz (http://www.worldtimezone.com/gsm.html) but 2G is 900/1800
If I use the Rogers method, I'm confused (after much reading and searching) as to which rooting method to use then, hyeProfile's method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4280573&postcount=130 or haykuro's method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4271500&postcount=1 or Charrion's method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4503296&postcount=1
or should I not use the Rogers method but something else?
I'd like to use a CyanogenMod Rom.
Any sound advice would be appreciated?

I think following a Rogers rooting process would be your best bet. However, I'm no hardware guru so I MAY be wrong. If someone thinks otherwise, please say so.
Some good info on rooting the Rogers model can be found here. I rooted my Rogers phone a while back. All I'll say is to follow the walkthroughs VERY carefully. I'll also say that if you follow that post, you'll want to read the CM wiki as well.
I have a Rogers Dream lying around, so I'll try to install CM latest on it and let you know how it goes.
[UPDATE] CM 4.2.7.1 is running fine on my Dream. Just make sure you read everything before you start.

First of all if you follow all the instructions you shouldn't have any difficulty.
Secondly, you posted in the wrong section. I'll move to General but next time I'll close your thread.
Third, I took the honors of removing post #2 and used the EDIT button to modify your original post. You should also consider editing your original post before posting one to correct it for future reference.
my fault thanks for answering my question. The reason I couldn't edit my post is cause I'm doing this off my phone.

Lol some mods just cant drop it. And for your info i followed the instructions to a t and still no root. I was simply asking for help not to get griped at. If you read my post completely you would have noticed i clearly said I had tried numerous times. And opera mini in mobile mode didn't let me edit my post.

Who knows. You have a perfected spl so it's hard to say.
What works fine for some MyTouch phones may not work for others.
Since we don't know what instructions you have used and what methods you have used it's impossible for us to tell you what you're doing wrong.
It's not that we don't want to help, because we do, it's just very difficult to do so when we know nothing about what you have done so far to do it yourself.
So far the only thing that you said was you followed 'THE' instructions (which ones... we don't know) and failed with a MyTouch device with these specifications:

So, which did you use?
I was able to temp root before with z4root, but that doesn't work anymore...so, looking now for easy perm root but I haven't found a guide that is for our phone...can anyone help guide me? Thanks!
make a gold card, follow the guides. It's not hard really. Just remember that it can take 15-20 minutes to boot. So dont consider the phone locked and try to pull the battery or anything unless you've waited 30 minutes.
Hey guys,
I know this question may have been answered a million times but most of the tutorials deal with htc magic that is in either Canada or US and I was reading that if done incorrectly, I pose the risk of bricking my device which is something I do not really wish to do. I am also new to rooting since I have not done anything of the sort so I don't know if rooting steps differ from the telecom company of htc magic you got it from so please bare with me.
I got my HTC Magic from Saudi Arabia under Saudi Telecom (STC) and I have checked the type that I have and it is:

What is PVT 321? :O
I've heard only of 32A/B until now..but otherwise it seems to be 32A (according to CyanogenMod Wiki), at least the other details are what I had - and Saudi Telecom Magics should all be 32A.
I followed this guide: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Magic_(32A):_Rooting_(3.22.x_radio)
There are some others, of course, but this for sure works!
Thanks for the quick reply kanttii and yes PVT is 32A not 321, I mistyped it. Anyways I was reading it and it seems fairly simple but after I do the steps there, can I then choose what ROM I want to flash my phone with? Or does cyanogenmod already has its own ROM? I know I may be asking such a dumb question but I am really clueless when it comes to this. Thank you so much for the help!
hmm go to this post of mine.
