Anyone has this experience ?
What pro/cons ?
I tried to flash this radio when this thread was out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630853&highlight=vodafone+32+sense
It worked nice for me with that Stock Rom.
I flashed only Radio.img and System.img of course, i've the older Haykuro 1.33.2005 (SAPP10000)
So, any people around here are using this Radio with Vodafone 32B Magic ?
What Rom ?
Does Recovery Image works ?
Thanks
Nobody tested new Radio on Vodafone 32B ?
mmm strange...

If you flash a 32A radio onto a 32B device, it will work...
You'd then need to flash Amon_RA H recovery.
Issues... None except a much slower phone. Bluetooth works on Sense ROMs though, which I don't even think is an issue anymore.
Its all over at the G1 section, I flashed it on my MyTouch 3G, tons of us 32bers have flashed the new Radio

You mean the 32B radio 2.22.23.02. But QTeknology means 3.22.20.17. Which is a 32A radio.

It's a 32B Radio too, It was on a Official HTC Vodafone Rom downloadable over the German HTC Web page.

Yes, i know what you mean. But i don't think it is a 32B radio because my normal recovery didn't started. After i tried it with a 32A kernel it booted fine.
Hold on a second! Is this right?
- Using any 32B SPL and 32B radio 2.22.19.26 or 2.22.23.02 you can boot a 32B ROM on a 32B Magic. We all do this.
- Using 32B Engineering SPL 1.33.2005 (possibly other Engs?) and 32A radio 3.22.20.17 you can boot a 32A ROM on a 32B Magic. QTeknology and mjrgens are doing this.
Has QTek just discovered a way to "fool" 32A ROMs into running on a 32B???

Just flashed this Radio that comes from a HTC Rom 2.16.151.3 (from German site)
http://www.4shared.com/file/241359056/7f466efc/radio3222017.html
I think it's for 32B:
ro.build.fingerprint=vodafone_generic/htc_magic/sapphire/sapphire:1.5/2.16.151.3/34732:user/release-keys
A Lot of Vodafone stuff inside the rom
The Android build is for Vodafone, i think. But the radio is 32A. Btw, don't flash the engineering SPL 1.33.2004 G if you have this radio, it will brick your device.
To be honest this whole thread gives me the heeby geebies, flashing radios is usually where bricks happen and I don't see there is any benefit to anybody changing their radio if what they currently have isn't giving them any problems.
Just my 2 cents .... on the subject of radios if it aint broke then don't try and fix it!
Flashing radio does not worry me, as I don't think it's possible to brick as long as you have original SPL? I've upgraded my Magic to 2.22.23.02 and it made a good difference.
Flashing SPL does give me the heeby geebies. It's pretty clear-cut for US T-Mobile G1s like the one I own, but for my Australian 1.33.0004 Magic I still can't get a straight answer as to what Eng SPL I should flash. 2004G seems to be the right one but I'm not 100% sure.
I see no real advantage on the Magic anyway, I can fastboot recoveries and the Vodafone-branded bootscreen does not bother me enough to risk bricking my phone.
At least with stock SPL I can always recover no matter how badly I stuff up the OS.
ok so over all it is possible to flash a 32a radio to a 32b and use 32a sense roms or is there an spl needed as well?
I got a T-mobile mytouch from my father not too long ago and im currently trying to root it but im kind of failing to understand. Can you not flash 32A roms when I have a 32B phone? or is there any radios or something that converts or changes your phone from 32a to a 32b? Cause from what I see they havent released many roms for 32b frequently so im wondering is it worth it? or is there another forum that i can find more 32b roms like in the g1 section or something?
32a phones have a completely different main board than a 32b. 32b is basically the same as a G1 device (it has more ROM), and so most G1 roms are also built for the 32b Magic (AKA Sapphire).
A 32A rom/radio/spl has a VERY high chance to unrecoverably brick your device.
Ohhhhh alright! thank you very much !!!!
Flashing a 32a rom or recovery will not brick radio n spl is another story though lol.

I just recently got this phone and just switched from a G1 whats the best and latest SPL for 32b MT or is it no different from 32a? Either way whats the latest? Is it 1.76? Or do i use G1 SPL's since almost all 32b roms are also G1 roms?

I have never seen a reason to switch the spl on my mt3g. I have always kept it stock

I use the •Engineering SPL 1.33.2005 one because many forums say it plays nice with other roms and mods and the board. Though I have flashed 2010 and it worked as well. I use those on the MT3G 32b. 1.76 is for 32a. As far as I know on that one you want the 1.76.2007. hope that helps
I have the 1.2 MyTouch, with 3.5 mm jack.
AFAIK, it's 32B, but somehow different? Can I flash any the dev SPL on it somehow?
How many models of MyTouch are there, anyway?
Seemed like 32A and 32B, but multiple wikis warn me about not trying stuff meant for 32B on the 1.2 MyTouch.
I am totally confused =(
Its a 32a board with 32b radio.
Alright, so I finally got my MyTouch rooted.
Now I am looking at possibly changing my ROM, however most of the ROMs are made for 32A boards, I have a 32B board.
Is it possible to flash a 32A ROM and do some sort of update/fastboot update to get it working on a 32B phone? Or am I just talking crazy here and need to find a 32B ROM I like?
Thanks!
i havent seen any 32a only roms, which ones have you been looking at?
generally if there arent any instrusctions on how to go from 32a to 32b there probably isnt any support for 32b. 32b has a lot less memory so you are much more likely to find 32b roms that have 32a additional steps than the other way around.
If you have a 32b then flash 32b roms. Most of them are in the g1 section. You are talking crazy. Lol. There are plenty of good 32b roms out there. I am using chromatic 4.2 until I update to 4.3 . If you want 2.2 that one is pretty fast. Happy flashing
