I've heard several places that the sapphire 32A and hero has the same hardware, so it's basically the same phone on the inside. I was therefore wondering, are we (32A users) able in some way to flash roms for hero?
?!
this is what we have been doing sooooo long!!
and the hero and magic does not have exactly same hardware, but just close

it is for advanced users as you will need to flash a new SPL and radio to get it working! greetings

Wow. Thanks for your quick reply, that sounds awesome!
So after flashing the spl, radio and recovery I'll be able to flash any ROM made for hero on my 32A without porting?
no you can't just flash any hero rom cause you will need special kernel with support for the hardware of your sapphire. but with that in mind it should be possible if you just flash a custom kernel onto it

What is best hero rom (bt an led works, no lag) for 32a??
In my opinion it's the 'eVilHero' with 'TigerTaels' kernel and his audiofix.
can you give me a link, please?
I thought that evil's was only 32b. If not, please enlighten us.
That would be good... I tryed to figured out how to install that rom using tigertaels kernel patch but with no succes =(... I get a little bit confused...
I'm at the phone so you guys have to find 'TT's' thread yourselves.
Just download the 'EvilHero' rom to your sd card the same with 'TT's' Hero kernel and his audiofix. Boot up your recovery and wipe, then flash the rom and then directly after without a reboot flash the kernel and then the audiofix, but that is not necessary for the rom to function.
I will make a better 'tut' when I get home with proper links.
Thanks mate =D...
Waiting for the little guide =P... Even that I know now a lot more than when I started into the magic, sometimes I get confused =(...
Here you haver a nice explanation of how to combine some Hero 32B ROM with 32A Kernel:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4615515&postcount=1
I'm actually using the latest Evil Hero v3.0 with Case_ "eViL ROM 2.9.9 2.6.29 BFS-303 32A v1.1" kernel
So far so good...

Believe it does. At least the videos I've seen on Youtube got multitouch with a HTC Hero ROM.

This is by far the fastest, most stablr Hero ROM. I tried Evils and it has some bugs that need to be ironed out.
So I was looking at the cyanogen wiki and noticed that the 32A magic had to use the exact same port files for their roms as I do on my Rogers Dream for Cyanogen. I really want to try Eclair. Can I just use a Magic 32A rom on my Dream?
32A has more RAM & ROM so no you cant install the actual rom that was given as a OTA to Magic users.You can go to Rogers and ask to buy a Magic if you want.Or get a hero rom from here and stick with it.
there are hero ROMs for EBI1?

Oops, nope you have to stick with cyan or enom. No one has made one for EB11 yet.
Hey there.
I've just had my phone rooted the other day and have a Custom ROM that my friend gave to me for download and I'm just looking for another GOOD ROM
for my to try out.
If you have one, or know of a good one that would work on my myTouch 3G,
please comment with a link! :]
Thanks,

I guess ill say this before someone else does which magic do you have???
do you he 32a or 32b version???
also the forums here are filled with ROMS depending on what you want to do with your phone no rom is perfect do you want an everyday ROM or do you want a new rom that you will have to constantly upgrade?
Also what radio and or spl do you have
I have a 32B =o
I'm running superd, since your pottery noob, you'll want to stick with either superd or cyanogens roms, their easy to upgrade with the cm updater.

Will G1 ROM's work with the MT3G 1.2? I was reading somewhere that it did but want to see if its true? if it does what requirements are needed as to SPL and Radio?

It REALLY depends on the ROM. If possible, ask the developer before you try to flash it. Which ROM do you want to use that's meant for the G1?
Well right now i'm trying to just find a really good ROM based for a MT3G really. I dont like froyo as it always seems to drop service ideally i'd like to use a eclair or sense based ROM really.
Hi
My brother just gave me his HTC magic but it lags extremely badly and he told me he accidentally put on the 32b drivers when his phone was a 32a magic.
Is there any way I can put the 32a drivers on?
Thanks

You forgot to tell us anything about your phone (besides 32a).
Sorry.
What kind of info do you need?
It's running the 2.2 cyanogen mod.

Unless you're running 1.33.0013 spl then you need an eb1 kernel.
That's all you need.
If you happen to have 1.33.0013 then you stick with 32B roms. Nothing more to be done.
so since my phone isn't running that spl, nothing can be done?

I think that maybe either you or your brother misunderstood what needed to be done.
Typically, the drivers don't need to be replaced to increase performance. If it is done, it's done by the developers of the particular rom that you have installed. Optionally, you can experiment with different kernels, however it has little to do with drivers. It's mostly floating points, extra ram boosts, etc.
so he must've meant he installed a rom specifically meant for the 32b magic. In which case, which kernels can be installed to give the phone a performance boost?

That depends on the rom being used.
