Voda Magic won't Flash - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hi All!
For some reason my phone doesn't let me flash! For example, everytime I run the flashrec installer and open it, i type:
'/ sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2G.img'
into the blank textbox and then I press 'Backup Recovery Image'. I then get a message saying BACKUP FAILED. Can anyone help?
I've got the Vodafone version of the HTC Magic with a 32B motherboard.
Thanks!

[Q] Help me to unbrick my HTC legend

Hi Everybody,
I am a newbie, i was trying to install aliba's gingerbeard rom via rom manager, but i dont know what happenend and just my device stopped working, and hanging on cyanogenmod symbol,
Pls guide me to unbrick, i have read some threads in our XDA itself, i am not so clear from where to start to unbrick,
and i placed some roms in sdcard/update.zip via card reader and used the recovery screen (i knew that recovery is not clockwork mod) but the error is
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
and finally after retry 10 it is showing
E: Can't find /sdcard/update.zip
Installation aborted.
Pls help me to sort out this,
Thanks in advance
This should be in general (I wish I was a moderator, I'd do it myself)

I see the same errors when I go into recovery, but I can still launch the fake flash version of recovery. Make sure the update.zip is the correct version.
Recovery is failing to mount your SD card. I'm not sure what the issue is
Did you try USB Unbrick?
year!
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RTEY0Q97
get that adb.zip
then you should get some recovery files. Hmmm, how to upload??
pull recovery files to the "files" folder.
just run:
adb push files /
adb shell busybox --install /sbin
adb shell nohup /sbin/recovery &
you could get into recovery and flash rom again.
try searching on youtube
Put the Clockwork Mod update.zip and your backup or another ROM (as zip file) on your SD Card. Then press Volume down + Power Button. Afterwards select Recovery and wait until you see the red triangle. When you see the red triangle press Volume up + Power and wait until the Recovery screen appears. There you select Apply update.zip and your phone should boot into Clockwork Mod Recovery. From there you can flash a new ROM or restore your NANDROID Backup.
heres another way... go download this http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XBAOCSWZ
and find testimage.zip in it. Put it on your phone's sdcard renaming it to LEGEIMG.zip
off the phone and go to boot loader and start back from unrooted eclair...
the link above is form got it form this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894465
but anyway... since you like e2 recovery so much... you did not do a factory reset... go do that and the loop should go away....
@spiritusrector
THANKS SOO MUCH lol...you just saved me 35 bucks
answer
go on youtube and search for androidreviews123....he has a guide on how to unbrick

Whats wrong with my Legend (Solved)

Hi guys, especially devs,
My phone has been boot-looping, unable to access recovery (stuck at the red <!>)
Here's what i did before it happen
1) i installed cyanogen-mod 7 build 13 and gapps (thru r4-legend-rooted recovery windows batch.file)
2) do the regular settings on the phone, change the theme using the default theme chooser
3) restart my legend, and its been boot looping.
now i am unable to go into recovery to flash another rom
extra notes:
LEGEND UNKNOWN SHIP S-ON
HBoot 0.43.0001
Radio: 7.08.35.21
when i try to use fakeflash and install update.zip, it shows this:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcbblk0)
(no such file for directory)
Someone please help me!

I think the only thing you can do is flash the pc10img.zip for the leaked 2.3.3 G2 update. Then you will not be able to root.

[Q] a problem withe recovery "ERROR: ERROR: Cannot read ramdisk image"

Hello,
I am running android 2.3.7 [typhone v3.6.9- magldr]. I wanted to upgrade my rom, so I got into magldr and then to recovery, but when I choose "ad recovery" I get an error massage in red "ERROR: ERROR: Cannot read ramdisk image "
plese help ...
How can I solve this problem ?
thank's
Reflash recovery and then see it it's reproduces or not.
If you have do a task29,you have to reflash MAGLDR and the recovery who is needed for this ROM.Task29 delete MAGLDR and Recovery.
Maybe you need reflash your device recovery.
You really don't have to task29 your device.
Just download HD2 Toolbox, connect your HD2 to your PC and hit update in the left corner.
Thats it

I cannot reinstall the ROM because the damn INVALID VENDOR, I canno use SSPL_RUU.exe as suggested in this forum because it must be run from WM and not from the coloured strips screen..

you should try your original WM ROM, or for android these aren't any problem.. it's because bad installation,
