listed is my phone details. i have tried every single method found in the forum to root my phone or flash into a new rom but it just all doesnt work.
I have previously update the HTC ROM [HTC Sense] Version: 3.03.707.5 a few months back.
1. I have tried this link by using the rom1.zip copied from the temp when running the Official RUU Sapphire HTC Europe AT test signed. but it failed.. Wrong model CID i think..
*If you have ENG SPL 1.76.2007 you can simply unpack only rom.zip without new HBoot and radio and flash directly*
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625108
2. I have tried using using the rom1.zip copied from the temp when runing the RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Asia_WWE_3.03.707.5_R_SG_release_signed_NoDriver.exe but everything is same and the flashrec or fastboot method all failed..
2.1 I have tried using a flashrec and recover image to root my phone
but i received backup failed and was not able to flash the image too..
theunlockr.com/2009/08/29/how-to-root-the-htc-magic-in-one-click/
2.2 fastboot method when fastboot devices indicate the devices serial no. but when i try to fastboot recovery .. [failed : remote not allow is the error]
2.3 when i tried adb method.. it just failed too
I am lost and i hate the new sense rom i updated few months back.. before that i did flash the hero rom before i changed to the new sense rom..
i read some post saying that the new sense rom will block all ways to root or flash new room.. but some post said that with a gold card created, it will overcome that.
Please i have been reseting my phone for the whole week now.
Please guide me to the light.. Awaiting for some enlightenment~

[Q] Help. I have problem with 32b. Stuck on image.

Hello.
I have a Htc Vodafone Magic, de version.
A few days ago i rooted and install cyanogen 5.0.7 and the i've upgraded to 5.0.8.
I used titanium backup, made a backup, and then i need it to restore. After that i couldn't use the phone.
Then i inserted the goldcard made it earlyer, where i had the rom, and update it.
It was a rom 5.0.7 with no app and no android market, and no root.
Now started in fast boot (vol down + power) and i have :
sapphire pvt 32b eng s-off H
Hboot-1.33.2010 (SAPP10000)
cpld-10
radio3.22.20.17
jun 2 2009, 17:27:03.
When i try to instal a rom it said that he cannot find any rom.
I used the link [How-To] Root and un-root the T-Mobile myTouch 3G
to revert to 32b since i so that i have 32b eng s-off H and i thought that is the problem.
i used this commands
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
It did not work.
No the phone starts and locks on the image with HTC MAGIC.
Thank you for your help.
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RAv1.2.0G.img

No the phone starts and locks on the image with HTC MAGIC.
when the phone stats with usb in it appears fastboot on a red background.
And i cannot use adb commands.
It is bricked?
the fastboot option works. i send recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G thru fastboot and the message was okay.

I think you can download radio 2.22.23.02 as zip file, put it on root of memory card, boot to recovery mode, apply this zip. Everything will be OK.
I flashed it 2 days ago for udating for my Magic radio version from 2.22.19.26I.
You can find the file on this room or I will attach it later.

thank.
i used Revert to 32B Radio and ROM procedure and made it.

flashing ruu htc magic 32a

Hello. I'm trying to flash a RUU for my htc magic 32a because i flashed a custom recovery months ago and it screwed my phone. I can't access to recovery or to android anymore. I flashed Sappimg.zip through hboot but it gave me wrong custom id, update fail. When i rebooted the phone to the bootloader, i found out that my phone has now the stock radio and hboot versions, which was a pain in the ass. Now i can't flash a new recovery nor a custom rom. The only solution is to flash a RUU i guess.
I looked at the Official htc sapphire RUU thread and downloaded "2.20.151.4 Vodafone Greece test-signed" one. But i believe my phone is unbranded. I didn't buy it myself, i got it from a friend. So, i flashed that RUU and got signature fail error. I just want someone to point me out which RUU i need to flash.
Here's the link of that thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=659403

EDIT: I'm flashing the RUU through RUU USB

You have a 32A device but running a 32B radio... Not good!
Run these commands:
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
fastboot getvar cid

How come? It's under HTC Sapphire/Magic 32A.
Here's the output of those commands:
version-main: 2.16.421.5
cid: HTC__016
EDIT: Does this mean i should flash this one "3.05.421.3 HTC South Africa"? If i recall correctly, the guy told me he bought it from Africa.

That is correct. It should fix it

Ok. I'll try downloading it right away.

I tried flashing that same RUU, but i got an error during the system update, it gave me "fail-pu". All the other updates were successful though. At the end, it gave me an update fail error.
EDIT: It seems now my Hboot is 1.76.0009 and my Radio is 6.35.08.29. The thing i noticed when i was going to get the .zip file is that, there were two zip files, one was rom.zip and the other rom1.zip. The rom.zip contained the following files: "boot_special.img", "hboot_7200A_1.76.0009_091208.nb0" and "radio.img". Whereas, the rom1.zip contained: "boot.img", "recovery.img" , "splash1_vodacom.nb0", "system.img", "userdata.img". First i flashed the rom.zip, and i got an error when i updating the boot. Next and flashed the rom1.zip and aas ia said earlier, i got an error at the system update.

Thank you. Basically, i downloaded the RUU again and flashed the rom1.zip and everything went perfect. Now i have a working phone again. I just need to root it again.
Thanks again.

How should i s-off my device in order to flash a custom recovery?

Follow my guide found in my signature

Nevermind, i did it by myself. I have ENG S-OFF atm. Thanks again for your help though.

[Q] HTC MAGIC (Vodafone) 32B Hung on splash

Android system recovery <2>
Build: CyanogenMod v1.4 + JF
Tried to flash Cyanogen 6 Stable image (update-cm-6.1.0-DS-signed.zip ) using apply sdcard:update.zip Said was successful but hangs on vodafone splash screen at start-up. I was watching a how to video on theunlockr.com at the time which said to wipe data/factory reset prior to flashing the rom but it neglected to tell me to backup first. does this look like a problem with the 6.1 rom I've flashed or something else?

Just wipe everything from recovery and flash the rom once again. You should be ok.
You will also lose all your info and apps.

Why are you flashing through sdcard:update.zip use apply zip from sdcard

I did a wipe/factory reset after that and re-flashed the same ROM but it still hung on start-up. I'll try and use the apply any zip from sdcard and see if that works as suggested by danthepan124. If that doesn't work could I change the recovery image to AMON-RA as recommended by cyanogenmod wiki? Would that make a difference? Is there a way I can start a fresh with HBOOT and Recovery images that are known to work?

ok, have just wiped and re-flashed cyanogen 6.1.0 and no changes, still hangs on Vodafone Splash screen and have to remove battery to turn off. I've wiped again and rebooted then flashed the other Cyanogen 4 (update-cm-4.2.15.1-signed.zip) and 5 (update-cm-5.0.8-DS-signed.zip) ROM for the HTC magic and the v5 ROM hangs at splash also whereas the v4 goes through to a black screen that looks staticy then eventually fades to black. Do i need to flash with a new recovery image like AMON-RA?, will that make a difference? How do i change the recovery image when i dont have access to Terminal, only hboot and current cyanogenmod v1.4 recovery image?

Wow, I knew i liked reading manuals and diagrams but these instructions are really difficult to follow as they jump around so much. Anyway I have followed all successfully but still have a phone hanging on the splash screen.
I googled ezterry's sapphire 32b instructions
As i didn't have the 2.22.27.08 Radio or HBOOT 1.33.0013 or 1.33.0013d I followed ezterry's 32B post here which in turn referred me to this post as I still had my stock 1.33.0007 SPL.
So i copied update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2009-signed.zip to my card and flashed that, the phone rebooted afterwards so i put it in fastboot usb then followed ezterry's instructions for fastboot flash the recovery, radio and spl as recommended
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0-cyan.img
fastboot flash radio radio-2.22.27.08.img
fastboot flash hboot hboot-1.33.0013d.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
this all went well and showed the updated radio and SPL on the hboot screen so I then wiped the system
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
and then going back to ezterry's original post followed Step 6 to Flash update-cm-6.1.0-RC1-DS-2708port_S.zip, the Step 7 to Flash GAPPS tiny, the Step 8 Reboot and enjoy my ROM but NO JOY! still hanging on vodafone splash.
Then as per ezterry's Help it won't boot section, ive
fastboot erase system then reflashed update-cm-6.1.0-RC1-DS-2708port_S.zip - still hung
fastboot erase system -w then reflashed update-cm-6.1.0-RC1-DS-2708port_S.zip - still hung
fastboot erase system -w then flashed cyanogenmod's 6.1 stable ROm update-cm-6.1.0-DS-signed.zip - still hung
At least now i have the 1.70 AMON-RA recovery as recommended in the cyanogenmod 32b instructions so i am feeling more comfortable about it all but haven't progressed very much.
One thing to note that I can remember for the beginning is the original instructions to root mentioned to downgrade to 1.5. I remembered trying that and it said some like incompatible image which I assumed was because i was already running 1.5 as stock, but as I've got this far I'm guessing it didn't matter as it appears i do in fact have root.

just ran fastboot commander v1.51 again and enclose the output showing updated SPL and radio

My friend updated this phone with errors. Now I can run it only in RUU mode. PC found a phone and I can connect by fastboot and turn-off phone (by fastboot oem powerdown), but I can't load any recovery..
I tried official RUU installer, but there say that I must download other version.
I tried boot few recovery, but nothing happend when booting .
I tried also downgrade radio or SPL, but I need working device.
There is any solution to bring to life a phone or this is brick?

When you are running RUU, it will create log in c:\ruu_log
Post it to review errors

Ok. According your log info...
- Your phone has label 3.54.631.3 ROM (but probably does not have system image with this rom)
- You tried to install ROM that has lower version than 3.54.631.3 (remote: 43 main version check fail)
- It is main problem if you have not canadian rogers phone
1. You need create goldcard (search on xda for manual)
2. With goldcard you can successfully install 3.54.631.3 RUU and your phone will work.
3. After that if you want custom you can get root (use SuperOneClick), flash custom recovery (AmonRa 1.6.2 patched by cursordroid or HTC Hero recovery), then flash hboot 1.76.2007 and custom ROM via recovery...
p.s. if you have additional questions, you can always write me in PM...
