i used the rom provided on the page and no i where stupid/cocky enough to not make a backup
after it didn't work i tried several ather rom's (thinkin it might have been a baad rom to start with)
but i where thinkin (after reading this thread that maybee i could fin the .img files hee mentions too re-flash somewhere on the web, but no luck so far

Go into fastboot mode and tell me which board you have by rebooting and holding down the Back button and pressing the Power/End Call button
PVT32B use this recovery image here
and any of these SPL's found here and any ROM labeled 32B
PVT 32A use this method and recovery image here and any ROM labeled 32A
Connect to pc via USB
fastboot boot (enter recovery here).img
Unplug from USB
Apply update.zip from the menu list

i have the 32a model, but first of what is this spl thing and is it not nessesary for the 32a model?
and second of if it is could you post a link to that aswel and maybe a guide on how to flash spl's (like can i put both the spl and the rom on the flash drive at the same time and save the whole proces of takin the sd out of the phone to transfere files to it?)
thanks already NoaT

If you need root then you NEED the SPL. All links are provided in my last post. Follow the instructions for the 32A device
Yes you can put both the SPL and ROM on the same card at the same time, make sure you label them differently like update1 for your SPL first and update2 for the ROM. Use choose update option in recovery in the menu list in order to see both

[FIXED] HTC Magic partially bricked

Hi everyone,
Yesterday i tried to root my HTC Magic, but it kinda failed.
Now, it gets stuck at the Rogers screen (Rogers is the carrier, its the first screen you see when you boot). I can get in Fastboot mode but i have absolutely no clue what to do in order to unbrick the phone.
I don't care if i have to put a custom ROM or the original one, i just want to have a useable phone.
I'd like to have detailed instructions on how to proceed and where to download the stuff i need.
Thank you very much for your time !!!
EDIT: Problem fixed

Explain exactly what you were doing. It can be undone if you can get into fastboot. You might have to flash a different ROM or SPL (if you flashed the wrong SPL)

I tried this: http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Rooting but the thing is, Method 1 didnt work for me, the line :fastboot boot recovery-new.img didnt work, it did what its doing now (ie booting but freezing at first screen) but by removing the battery and putting back in, it booted normally.
Then i tried method 2, but with the update.zip from method 1, this time it worked, i was able to apply the update, but when it rebooted, it froze, and now it freezes every time i boot, but i can still get in fastboot
i didnt touched the SPL.

the easiest was to fix it is to locate the file on the net called:
SAPPIMG_Sapphire_TMUS_1.88.531.1_COC10_release_signed.nbh
download it to your pc
format your sd to card to fat32
copy and paste the NBH file to memory card
put card in phone and power on while holding down the vol. button and it should automatically pick up the NBH file and just follow the steps

so i format the card, put the NBH file in, boot to fastboot, follow the instructions and thats it ?
that will put my phone back in its origial state ?
since i format the sd card, i loose everything, but i can backup without problems ?
EDIT: No, it did not work. I formated my sd card, put the NBH on the card, boot the phone in HBOOT and it didnt do anything.

Sounds like you got the wrong recovery image. Did you download h or g?

I'm pretty sure it was H
EDIT: Well first of all i tried this one: http://www.droiddeveloper.com/hrbuilds/recovery-new.img.zip
but it did no work properly: when i tried to do: fastboot boot recovery-new.img it booted to the rogers screen and froze instead of booting to the green screen
Then i tried this one: http://rapidshare.com/files/248983573/recovery-RAv1.0H.img
This time i managed to get to the green screen and apply the update.zip, but when it rebooted it froze and now it's stuck there

OK i fixed my problem, and for anyone who's having the same problem, here's what i did:
1- I downloaded Amon_RA's latest H recovery ROM (at the time it was v1.2.1) available right here
2- I downloaded the MyHero ROM v1.1.1 here
3- I renamed the Hero ROM to update.zip and copied it to my sd card
4- I booted my Magic in fastboot and typed this in fast boot: fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.1h.img
5- Once my phone was at the green recovery screen, i applied the update.zip
The following rebooting process of the phone took a long time (ie 10-15 minutes, be patient)
Once it booted completely, the phone was working perfectly with an Hero ROM.
At first i didnt receive any 3G connection, but after setting up the APN it was working fine.
I hope this will help someone out and thanks to everyone who replied to this post.

Hi Retucex,
I have an HTC Magic from Rogers. I haven't done anything to it, it's pretty much out of the box.
Your process explains how to upgrade to a Hero ROM from a recovery. How do I upgrade my phone that is perfectly running?
Thanks!

i wish it could be that simple on my magic too. the only problem is that it says fastboot remote: not allowed. what should i do, then?

You have what they call a perfected SPL, that will not allow fastbooting into a recovery ROM. There is a way to solve this, but it is not as easy as rooting. This thread should help.

There are many threads already about this, so a simple search should do the trick but for a general idea, you need to download the Android SDK. Then, fastboot into a recovery ROM, (google it, Cyanogen or AmonRa). Then, using the recovery ROM, flash a ROM of your choice, there are many on this forum, again, a simple search should do the trick. If you try fastbooting, and it says fastboot not allowed, you have a perfected SPL and should follow the guide above.

htc magic breaked

htc magic stuck in htc magic boot screen, it keeps rebooting after playing the htc welcome sound.
it was not rooted before & i have no backup room. fastboot can't recognize the device
C:\SDK_15\tools>fastboot devices
< waiting for device >
all the drivers are installed
is there any chance to recover it?

by any chance you got your phone from Smart Telecom in Manila? Rockwell? White HTC Magic?

I dont want to open one more thread so I'll share my doubt here.
I've bricked my Magic and I supose that warranty doesnt cover it. What about if I drop my magic, for exemple, and send it to HTC ? Would they fix it ?

If they find out it was due to rooting they will charge you for any repairs. If not, then you are lucky and you get a free repair

white htc magic mate. so is there a chance to recover it?

can you access recovery?
this happens when installing a 32b/g1 rom and forgetting to install the port file.. did that happen?

Alright from what i can understand is a native htc. You havnt rooted right? Do you have warranty from HTC? Because if you do you should use it there should be a maulfunction hardware and we should not do any experiments in order to try fix something wich maybe has a malfunction, and then you loose warranty.
If you dont have the warranty, then please tell me, have you done anything in particuler to make the phone become like this? If yes please tell me exacly what in order to find a suitable solution .

i have no warranty mate. i hv done nothing to the phone. concerning experiment im ready ks i hv nothing to lose.
besides, two weeks ago i gave to a gsm-shop for unlock, is there any chance of..........

ok lets try this first without rooting. try to put in fastboot mode and upgrade a ROM from HTC official site same version you are using now. (Not the update from january but november)
the unlock procedure does not affect the phone performance so do not worry. is a complete seperate region in your phone.

thats normal is not update but sappimg.img . you can do that but before you should be able to update in fastboot mode without problems.
If you have a firewall remove, sometimes it inteferes.
In case doesnt update in fastboot the offficial HTC update read and follow instructions:
http://translate.google.pt/translat...ss.C3.A1rio_para_fazer_o_processo&sl=pt&tl=en
Read everything, Skip the create the gold card method.
and do exacly as is written in english (You dont need to format the card)
Basicly is:
Download http://rapidshare.com/files/267446145/2.53.707.2_-_sappimg.zip
insert on your SD card. run in Hboot (Down volume + back)
The phone is going to update the new rom. Be patient, the first time takes around 5-10 min most of the times.
download the hboot: http://rapidshare.com/files/247838950/update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2005-signed.zip
change the name to update.zip and copy to the SD card. Turn on the phone pressing power+home and it'll enter in safe mode. In safemode apply update.zip .
Then you should have something as: http://www.androidpt.info/images/d/d5/Magic0014_4.jpg
Then you'll flash a recovery so that you can install a rom

[Q] Need help!! i think i semi bricked My HTC MAGIC

Hi everyone
First im super noob to this i have used this forum to update software on my windows mobile device but android is a lot more dificult if you are noob.
Ok to start i strugled to get fastboot working but after aboout 3 days strugle i managed to get it working.
Then I flashed amon ra 1.70 and then after that i installed the engineering spl and then a custom rom. i cant remember the name of the rom but i have double checked that it is for HTC MAGIC and also 32A. after i flashed the rom i cant boot the phone it stays on the vodacom splash screen the first screen when i put my phone on.
I have tried numeres other roms but no luck it just doest want to boot!!! I can still go in to amon ra and still use fastboot if that is a help.
I can send all the details of the phone tonight when i get from work. But any help will be graetly apreciated.

I just upgraded the SPL to 1.33.2010 and still stuck on the boot screen.
I tried to install the rom again using fastboot flash system (rom).zip and it didnt work i dont know what to do must i also update the radio and if so how and where can i get the radio.
Please i am realy clueless now on what to do thanx for the help so far.

Okay, now you should have the right SPL and Radio. Start your phone in Recovery and connect it to your computer. Choose USB-MS Toggle and your phone's SD card will show up in My Computer. Copy the following files to the root of your SD card:
http://mirror.teamdouche.net/get/dream_sapphire/cm_dream_sapphire_full-285.zip
http://briancrook.ca/android/cm-ports/bc-6.1.0-ebi1-signed.zip
http://goo-inside.me/google-apps/gapps-mdpi-tiny-20101020-signed.zip
and safely remove the card using. Press Home on the phone to go out of the MS (Mass Storage) mode and then go to Flash zip from SD card. Flash them in the same order that I gave you above. When it's done, choose Reboot and it should boot up into a fully-working nightly build of CyanogenMOD.

All 1.33.20xx where xx can be 04,05,09 or 10 do work for that radio. So you are not right on the one. The problem is simple, either he/she does not give enough time for the "new" rom to load all the way ( which is 7-15 mins) or he/she did not do a wipe before running the rom.
Do this and it WILL work:
Download my fastboot commander from my signature, magic version.
Boot into fastboot and start the tool.
Go to "Misc" tab. Select all partitions (in the RED box) and click "erase chosen partitions".
Go to "Magic 32A" tab and click on "flash new".
When done, reboot into custom recovery (hold home + power together for 5 sec and let go).
Use the trackball to navigate.
Use the "usb-ms toggle" and copy this file inside the sdcard.
Press home on the phone to return to menu and then select "Flash zip from sdcard".
Now select the file from above.
When done choose to reboot into system, and ENJOY :0)
NB: it will take like 10-15 min before the system starts up.
GOOD LUCK.

Oops. Could have sworn .2005 only works properly with the 32B radio. My bad. Oh, well, he has 2010, which should be fine for all old-radio ROMs.
@Reaper21 To get you a bit more confused: 32A Magics (like the one you have) can run two different radio/spl combinations. One is the one you have (SPL 1.33.xxxx + Radio 3.22.xx.xx) - called "old radio" - and the second (SPL 1.76.xxxx + Radio 6.35.xx.xx) is the one you need to run most SenseUI ROMs (but others too - you'll spot them because the developers mention they are for the "new radio" or "6.35").
If you want a clean Android experience, closer to the default user interface, you can run CyanogenMOD and ROMs based on AOSP (Android Open Source Project) - most of them need the old radio. These have the advantage of always using the latest version of Android available.
If you want the fancier - but sometimes slower - SenseUI you can use the RCMagic (the one mumilover recommended), CleanMagic and others. The user interface is a lot friendlier, but you have to make do with Android 2.1 (instead of the latest official version - 2.2.1, with 2.3 coming up). This won't normally be a problem. I, for one, prefer SenseUI and I'm guessing mumi does too
Use mumilover's commander to switch between new and old. It should be safe, as long as your phone's battery is charged and you don't unplug the cable or anything
Let us know how it works out!

Ok guys internet was off for a while im having a look and downloading the files now. I realy hope it works. will keep you posted, and thanx for the replies so far

Dude thank you you are the best its working again booting into the mod and working fine accept the reason i Wanted to do the software is that for some reason my Sim cant cant register on to the network. I Have tried all 4 networks in my country and none work it just said that unable to connect to the network at this time try again later.
Can this be a hardeware fault?
But thanx at least the device boots and i can use GPS again

Is the phone locked to the original carrier?

[Q] HTC Magic with Hero rom keeps looping on boot :(

Hi xda,
I'm sorry if this is a "common" error, but I couldn't find a thread via google or the search function - If I'm just an idiot, SORRY.
The problem is, that my little brothers HTC Magic is failing on boot. The screen keeps on showing the logo for HTC Hero. - Then he tells me that his friend told him that the Hero rom were a better choise, so the friend TRIED to flash the hero rom over at the magic, but now it loops the logo.
My questions is :
1) Is the hero rom a better rom for the Magic?
2) How do I get it to work again?

Is it rooted?
Can you get into recovery?
Can you get into fastboot?
What radio, hboot and recovery are on the phone?
If you or your brother don't know what those things are then you've got some reading to do. Google those words or search in this forum. Once you understand what those things do or if you already know, then report back.

U need to clear about the Hero ROM you flashed. Original Hero ROM can not run in Magic, only Cooked Hero ROM can.
Also, If u flash cooked Hero ROM for Magic, u may need the recovery for this ROM (usually suggested by the dev)

It wasn't me who did the flash , but my brother classmate and he's suddenly in doubt.. He told he flashed the phone, then made a hard reset and then it started looping. If he can't tell me which Rom he used is there any way to find it?

Recovery is home+power. Try it, if still run, u can download the Magic Rom with 3.22 radio.
If not, Download recovery Magic of RA or Seo,... use fastboot to flash the recovery image.
Or u can download official ROM and flash it.
Good luck

The problem is : how do I flash it, when there isn't a propper USB connection? When Im at the recovery screen and Im trying to push the image it says no device to be found.. :/
Sent from my Xperia x10 using Tapatalk

I think u should download the original ROM like sapphire.img, put it into sd card, start the phone in Hboot and it will automatically find the img file to flash.

The USB connection with his computer isn't working so he won't be able to just run the RUU. He'll need to extract the sappimg file from the RUU, put it on his SD card via an adapter, and flash it from hboot on the phone.
With that being said, @the OP, still grab your CID and let us know which country the phone originates from. Then I'll pull the file you'll need and post it back here for you to download with instructions on how to use it.

Thanks! - It's bought in Denmark, so I think it's the Nordic rom

Wait, just realized that link require that you be able to boot into the ROM. So, we're going to take the plunge. If your wrong, the file just won't flash, so no worries about bricking.
Go here and download that file. Rename it to "sappimg.zip" and put it on your SD card. With the SD card in the phone and the phone turned off, boot into hboot holding (volume down+power). The phone will pick up the image and ask you to hit "ACTION" to continue (ACTION is pressing the trackball in). Press "ACTION" to flash the file, after its done (will take about 5 minutes) it'll ask you to hit "ACTION" again to reboot. Do that and you'll be back stock.

So you can't get into hboot by holding (volume down+power) to boot? If not, can you get into recovery by holding (home+power) to boot?

Nope
I tried :
Down Volume + Power : Frozen on boot logo
Back + Power : same result
Home + Back + Power : same result
TrackBall + Power : black screen with blue led
