-kernel version 2.6.29-00479-g3c7df37 [email protected] #19

You can use any donut roms and the eclair roms too.But you will have to upgrade your SPL if you plan on using hero roms on your phone.
thanks and mobile will stay unlocked? What I can't do if I don't want to remove unlock?

The unlock will stay forever. In the same way the phone can not be unlocked by flashing a rom, it can not be relocked by flashing a rom

but after alot of experimenting i have found a solution. i thought i'd post this to help anyone else out with the same problem!
I bought an M600 on orange PAYG however on inserting my orange contract sim i can use the phone but cannot send SMS messages or adjust phone settings, if i attempt to all i get is the message above.
having spoken to orange about this several times it turns out to be a sim compatibility issue. orange however do not support sim swapping all they can do is send out sims compatible with the handset they sent you! i.e the N73 i got on upgrade.
So my solution, i paid imei-check to CID unlock the phone, i actually already unlocked the phone using lockiwiz but that will only remove the simlock on a G4 and AFAIK imei-check are the only people to unlock the CID.
once unlocked i backed up the shipped rom to SD as described in the prophet WIKI (just in case i needed to restore it to orange settings) and then upgraded the rom.
i tried several shipped roms and eventually found this rom the
RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_?QtekWWE_Ship.exe
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to not only work but also be in english. its a great rom, very basic without all the junk orange supply as standard
I don't really know why this has solved my problem i think its something to do with the radio rom but whatever it is it works perfectly!
below is my phones new info, if someone with the orange Rom could post the same I'd be interested to compare the versions.
ROM version: 2.20.7.34 WWE
ROM date: 7/10/06
Radio version: 02.47.21
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.24
ExtROM version: 2.20.7.114
I hope this helps someone out there!
for discussion purposes
That sounds weird why it works like that since my understanding of unlocking CID was merely so that one could install different ROMs. Someone pls correct me if I'm wrong here.

it is!!!! i needed to update the rom to get it to work! as above i stated that i changed from the orange rom to the qtek one, hence CID needs to be unlocked
So my solution, i paid imei-check to CID unlock the phone, i actually already unlocked the phone using lockiwiz but that will only remove the simlock on a G4 and AFAIK imei-check are the only people to unlock the CID.

Afaik, if you remove IPL/SPL from the ROM (There should be tutorials somewhere around here on how to do it) you don't have to CID unlock your phone.
I would really like to try this! I am always getting the same error so often whenever I send a new sms. I have an i-mate JAMin, prophet touch X ipl&spl 2.20, gsm 2.69. I can't find the ROM you're talking about in the xda-developer's ftp. Can you please upload it? Thank you so much!
its on the wiki page
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_ROMs
Okay If I installed this, do I have to reinstall wm6 and then my current ROM again(Prophet Touch X)?
yes i expect so, i'm no expert, thats just the way i solved the problem on mine!
i think it has to do with the radio rom version
You can update the radio ROM without having to change the normal ROM.

I am currently using v2.69. Does it mean I have to downgrade or test other versions? How about you? What version are you using guys?
hey as i stated, i'm not entirely sure what eaxctly it was that the replacement rom fixed but it did fix it!
Are you guys using orange M600s? whats your rom info?
mine was:
ROM version: 2.20.7.34 WWE
ROM date: 7/10/06
Radio version: 02.47.21
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.24
ExtROM version: 2.20.7.114
unfortunately i had my phone stolen so i can't help much more than that.
Okay I have fixed mine. I tried all versions but only version 2.30.21 of Radio ROM only fixed my problem. Thanks guys for all the help.

I had the same issues, updated my M600 to the above ROM and it now works perfectly
wow - does that mean you guys are using a 3g sim in a orange m600??
if so - what is a radio rom (and what does it replace?)
can you run these radio roms with wm6.1? or does it mean going back to 5?
sorry for all the questions i am despirate to get my phone working!!
I have a similar problem, going to try the rom you recommended but thought I'd post my pre-rom stats.
below is my phones new info, if someone with the orange Rom could post the same I'd be interested to compare the versions.
ROM version: 2.20.7.34 WWE
ROM date: 7/10/06
Radio version: 02.47.21
Protocol Version: 4.1.13.24

ROM date: 2/16/06

Hey guys.
So I am buying this phone (please check link): Here
I asked the guy and he said it is a 32B and he is checking to see if it is 1.5.
It is a US model and does not have the network logos on it.
Will i be able to root?
UPDATE:

so can I root?
Hard to say whether it is 32A or B. but you can get root access with most of the version a bit difficult with 1.6 from what I understand
http://theunlockr.com/tag/magic/
thanks. SO i can unlock a 32A with 1.5? nice
It is very easy you use just a couple minutes but the method on theunloker is slightly out of dated.
Thing is, all the ROMS under HTC Magic are 32A roms?

32A,B donut and cupcake +++
ehh? what do you mean?
If it comes preinstalled with 1.5 and I use a rom that is 1.6 or 2.x, how do i get back to 1.5?

If you successfully flash an engineering SPL on it you'll be able to flash any ROM you want... It won't bother you about system versions.
some roms say you need a specific SPL and radio, would I need to change them for every rom?

The only ROM I know that requires a specific SPL is CursorSense and it's for 32A... for other ROMs I think any 1.33.20xx SPL will work fine (1.33.2005 does on mine).
aww I see, thanks.
Hello,
I have a HTC MAGIC 32A and i can't download The offical HTC Magic Sense UI Rom. When I Use serial code it said it is not suitable for my device. So can any one please download the file for me and upload it on megaupload or rapidshare?
I really like Sense UI a lot more than android home.

Is your provider european ?
What version do you have ?
Is your phone rooted ?
Some basic guides and reading to get up to par with all the terminology and procedures.

Yes it is european, the phone is rooted, and the software version is 1.5
Then go for a custom rom and not the RUU.
Have you flashed your boot and radio to the latest version ?
If you like 1.5 .. get CursorSense with SenseUi
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592856
If you want to try 2.1 get SuperHero (also with SenseUI)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642393
Both require new boot (1.76.2007) radio (6.35.xxx.xxx)
I am a bit afraid to update radio and boot. Besides I never actually thought of updatigng them( Im a Newbie). Is it safe? More or less?
Share your phones info, EVERYTHING in the fastboot menu and we'll help you. It's easy to update the radio and hboot as long as you follow instructions.

If you ever plan to use a custom rom you can kiss it goodbye that RUU upgrade has a perfected spl so you will be stuck on Stock roms only.
If you still want it check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621415

Hey Guys, I've got a HTC Trophy Vodafone NZ and I'm looking at flashing a custom ROM to it but I am a little confused with a few things.
1. Regarding the Goldcard method from this I am confused at this step "You need to download a nodo rom for your device and extract Ruu_signed.nbh via Winrar. Rename it to
-Sparimg.nbh for Spark (Trophy)"
Which ROM can i use for this step? I can't seem to find a NZ ROM in this thread.
2. Will my phone be reset after doing the Goldcard method and downgrading my spl?
3. So the Goldcard method will unbrand my phone and allow me to flash custom roms?
Here is the info on my phone:
OS Version: 7.10.8107.79
Firmware revision number:2250.21.51201.179
Hardware revision number: 0003
Radio software version: 5.69.09.05a_22.50.50.21U
Radio Hardware version: A.102.0.D4
Bootloader version: 5.12.2250.1(135657)
Chip SOC Version: 2.2.5.0
Sorry for all the noob questions guys!
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi all I do is follow this link to put HSPL on the phone and I just select any ROM I want from here.
Currently using Dynamics.
Before putting HSPL, I have to downgrade the bootloader right? since mine is version 5.12.2250.1.
Would I have to get a NZ nodo rom or any from this thread for the goldcard method? which one would you recommend?

As far as I remember I dwngraded to this rom first.
Ended up using RUU_Spark_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.00_Spark_5.54.09_RELEASE.exe.
followed the goldcard method, did the RSPL/HSPL as instructed and flashed the Dynamics ROM. Working great!
Thanks for all your help!
