HI,
my magic is 32B
i followed the theunlockr.com/2009/08/14/how-to-root-your-mytouch-3g method together with the GOLDCARD method
my GOLDCARD is ok ... now i trying to fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.0H.img to my magic but got a message saying cannot load recovery-RAv1.2.0H.img
i have tried "fastboot devices" i m sure it is connected
right now on my magic's fastboot screen with these info:
32B
S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP10000)
radio 3.22.20.17
please help thanks
man...you need the recovery that ends in "g" not "h". obviously you didnt read the manual
download rav.blahblah.G<- NOT H and just flash the recovery and you will be fine
thanks ... i keep going on the "H" file becos in that unlockr video, i clearly see that it was a 32B
ok i'll go find a G file now
thanks.
ummmm ... i actually fixed the problem ...
if some new users come across this in the future, hope this helps
1) of all, my SDK folder is not in C:, for some reason even i had a path pointing to the folder when i load the recovery it not running the file
2) after i run the GOLDCARD, my magic became "H" as i pointed out in my OP, so running the recovery-RAv1.2.0H.img file is correct

I got a real Problem
On a normal Boot the Magic stucks an the red Vodafone splashscreen
Powering up with Home+Power results in the Vodafone screen
Back+Power i got to the fastboot menu.
Now i can transfer an recovery mod (recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img)
if i use "fastboot boot recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img" the phone shows up a progressbar, reboots and stuck at the red Vodafone screen.
if i use "fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img" the img transfered an wrote to the phone. Turning it off and on again (with Home+Power) it ends in the splash screen. ==> I'm not able to enter the recovery menu
If i try to flash my backuped system.img with "fastboot flash system system.img" the progressbar stucks at about 90%.
The Fastboot menu shows (if this could help):

There are new posts like this daily.
Reading carefully is the key! I had this problem on my 32A, you're flashing a recovery which is for google branded phones ie. Sapphire PVT 32B ENG S-OFF G, download recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H.img
On a 32b i need an h-recovery image?
Did i understand right?

Yes, you need an H recovery if that's what you seen on the phone when you're in fastboot.
What did you do to end up in such a situation?
Moving to General because this has nothing to do with ROM development.

It's my dad's phone, and he says "Nothing".
About one mont ago i flashed a 2.1 Rom to the phone, and everything works great. Three days ago he called me because the phone didn't boot anymore.
I realy don't know whats wrong with this f****** phone. It's just a kind of Magic
10 minutes ago i tried the "recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H.img" ==> same result.
I hope Vodafone will change ist. I realy out off ideas. :-S
So I have bought a HTC Magic in Singapore about a year ago.

Soon after, I started searching for new ROM elsewhere and managed to update my SPL to 1.33.2007 and that's where problem starts to occur..
My phone get stucked on HTC Magic screen display forever.
I was eager to get this problem solved and have not done enough research before I got myself in a worse situation with the phone hbooted like this:

Now I can only enter hboot and fastboot.
Can somebody help me to at least get back to my original ROM? I don't wanna root my phone ever again..
Help please~
If you can get into fastboot you're fine. Just flash 32A radio/spl again and then the desired ROM. Old radio/spl - 1.33.X/3.22.X New radio/spl 1.76.X/6.35.
yeah when turning on the phone hold home and power, if you get the recovery menu then you got nothing to worry about, just flash the proper rom and all will be fine, there is even a stock htc rom with root around here.
right here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622038
but you dont have to go back to stock, you just need to put on a rom that fits your phone. i personally suggest this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654284
so good luck post back when you get it figured out
Thank you Reziukas and sike89 for the reply..
I will try the ROM recommended in the links. =)
I cannot get into recovery (-Home- & -Power-) now due to the perfected SPL (1.33.0006).
And whenever I use the goldcard method that flooded over the internet, I always get this "Main version is older!" failure message.
I think I have made the goldcard correctly cause it worked while I was trying to flash my 1.76.0007 SPL to 1.76.2007.
Any idea?
when you hold home and power what does it do?
did you root your phone with the recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img?
I did but after I flashed RADIO-2.22.19.26I with SPL 1.33.0006 I can't get into this recovery mode anymore.
When I press Home and Power, it starts booting but stucked on HTC Magic screen forever..
Easily said it, I can only enter hboot (vol down and power) and fastboot (back and power) now..
Procedure
1.Turn your phone off. Turn it on by holding Back and Power, or Vol. down and Power. Either way, boot into the bootloader.
You should see the three Androids on skateboards, and the menu title should say "Fastboot".
2.Connect your device to the computer. The display on your phone should now say "Fastboot USB".
3.Open up the shell/terminal on your computer, and type
fastboot devices [enter]Your device should be listed with it's serial number, and should say "fastboot".
4.Change directory to where you have saved your recovery image. I.e. type "cd /path/to/recovery.img in windows prompt, press enter.
5.You may issue a "dir" command (Windows) or "ls" (Unix/Linux) to make sure you are at the right directory, or just skip this step.
6.Type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Check your phone's display, as recovery is being sent and flashed to your device.
Check your command prompt/shell to make sure the process is over.
i got all that from Binary100100 who got it from here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/RE-recovery-img
give that a shot
also maybe this might help

I seem like I cannot use the fastboot command in 1.33.0006 SPL??
Whenever I type a fastboot command and press enter, I always get an error message.
>> ... FAILED (remote: not allow)
Do we have any windows application that can help to bypass all checking on the phone stats and proceeds with fastboot flash directly?
Perfected spl, you need to make yourself a goldcard
Goldcard doesn't seem to work..
Whenever I try to flash a new radio, it prompted me an error message "Main version is older!"..
What to do?
when it says main version is older it means you need the goldcard.
do you have a working goldcard? if not use this
http://revskills.de/downloads/psas.zip it will make the gold card.
No need for phone?
Hello there.
I was reading this thread and I'm having a similar problem.
I have a question, sike89.
Is it possible to create the goldcard just with the software you mentioned?
My magic 32a will only go into fastboot (stuck at splash screen) and so
I won't be able to use my phone to create the card.
Thanks!
As mentioned by YamatoDelgato, I cannot boot up my phone and thus far I am unable to re-create a goldcard.
But this "goldcard" I am using right now was a working goldcard and I am surprised that it doesn't work all the times..
By the way, I found an alternative on internet saying that you can use other HTC Magic phone to create a goldcard for your phone; Although I am not sure if its gonna work out, just give it a shot..
Sike89, am I right to say that this application does not require any HTC phone in order to create a goldcard?
I can just format my SD card using PC and input the necessary information into the application to create goldcard, is it true?
Problem Solved...with a Sacrifice.
Well I managed to get my phone booting again.
I have a rogers phone so I used their "mandatory"
update (2 sappimgs) to get my phone working again.
However, this resulted in getting the dreaded
SPL 1.76.0010 meaning I can't root it easily.
However, I know that with a working
phone that I now have, I could use it to obtain
a gold card.
Boy that was scary!
I'm so scared to try rooting again but I probably will hehe !
Thanks to xda community and google search!
I lost my original nandroid backup but did manage to install an original ROM on my 32B (Vodafone). Took some work but it worked Afterwards I wrote a tutorial about it (google How to restore your custom ROMed HTC Magic (Vodafone 32B) – a walk through, I can't post links yet).
It is not boot with "HTC Magic" text on black background and stalled at all. And, I even can not boot it in recover (using HOME+POWER) or in HBOOT (using BACK+POWER) ...
It happened after I flash it with a Google ION radio image following the guide found in http://developer.htc.com/google-io-device.html#s1.
My phone was (before):

SAPPHIRE PVT 32B ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP*****)
CPLD-10
RADIO-3.22.20.17
Jun 2 2009, 17:27:03
----------------------------
What I did exactly is below:
1. 'adb push' the radio image (ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip) into the /sdcard/update.zip
2. In Amon_RA's recovery tool, flashed the /sdcard/update.zip. When got the prompt I reboot the phone using menu.
3. It seems rebooted but stay in another strange screen that I never saw: that is an open box, beside that stands a green adroid robot.
4. I feel the screen stay too long and seemed halt, then I removed the battery and try to boot again.
From now on, in whatevery method, I can only get a dead screen with "HTC Magic" white text on a whole dark screen.
Can I save my phone? I am crying .... What's wrong in my steps?
HELP!
It's dead fo' shizzle.
I assume it was a Rogers Magic (32A)? I know the SPL says it'd 32B, but I've seen people flash all kinds of crap and end up with hboot showing the wrong board, and I'm pretty sure that's a 32A radio you're running. You flashed a radio image for 32B to a 32A phone... you shouldn't have done that.
Actually I also suspect if it is really a 32B as HBOOT said, since in a recovery flashing process I found Amon_RA's 32A version works but 32B does not. I posted the question in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=750307, but no one reply to me! If you saw the thread and see something earlier, my phone can be saved
So, my question is, is there no any solution to recovery my phone any more?
To be honest, i have no idea what i was doing, but i ended up with a 32A radio and SPL, and now my MyTouch 1.2 won't boot.
It WILL boot in fastboot and hboot
It WONT boot in recovery or regularly
I have tried "fastboot erase radio" (and erasing cache), i have tried the stock MyTouch 1.2/Fender "sappimg.zip" but none have gotten past flashing the Radio, it stops when the little red bar is about 97% full.
Tried logcat, but apparently it doesn't work in fastboot mode :-/
Can anyone help?
It is now at:

Fastboot USB
EDIT:
Ok, now when i try booting regularly (or just pop the battery in) the phone shows the bright green "MyTouch3G" screen, but with the words "FASTBOOT USB" in the uppermost left-hand corner, where the word "SAPPHIRE" would be in normal fastboot mode.....really weird. SERIOUSLY hoping someone has an idea....
BUMP: Guys, this is really urgent. I have been searching all over XDA, Google, and the CM forums, but haven't found any procedures that work. This thread has been up for almost 17 hours, and has 69 views (lol) but no replies.
This is REALLY urgent, and I am trying to be as calm as possible, so i can get some help.
PLEASE post any ideas you may have.
Are you seeing anything on the screen besides "fastboot USB"? It really sounds like you messed with it until you REALLY got it hosed. Does your computer still recognize the phone by running "fastboot devices" in ADB?
Yeah, computer recognizes fastboot, i can flash everything EXEPT radio. That's the problem. When i try to flash a radio ".img" file, the second (RED) progress bar gets stuck right before it finishes flashing, and stays like that until i pull the battery, when it says "Flash FAILED (too many links)" or something like that.
Is it possible i damaged the radio partition or something? Can it be repaired?

Please answer the other question.
Well actually, now it shows the regular MyTouch slashcreen, not "Fastboot USB" at the top anymore. And I'm talking about a regular boot. Like i previously said, fastboot works fine except flashing a radio.
OK, so what are you showing when you boot into fastboot? Do you have a working goldcard?
Yes, i have a working goldcard, and at the moment, the phone shows:

Thanks in advance for all your help, bro.
Alright, think I know what you did wrong. You need to reflash the sappimg that got you here:
SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32A ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP31000)
It may fail trying to update the radio because it's the same version you already have. If you get back to S-OFF, then try flashing the radio.img from fasboot. If it work your good to go, just need to finish flashing everything. Remember, flash in the following order (after getting back to S-OFF):
radio
hboot
recovery
Let me know what happens after you try flashing the sappimg again.
If you need anything you can get them from here:
sappimg.zip for myTouch 1.2 only
radio.img for myTouch 1.2 only
hboot.nb0 for myTouch 1.2 only
Amon Ra 1.7.0-G Recovery
TBH, I flashed the 32A SPL and Radio separately, it wasn't the 2010 that got me the 6.xx radio.
I'll try anyway, thanks.
EDIT: Ok, flashed back to the 2010 Engineering SPL, and tried to flash the "radio.img" first (using RadioSwitcherGUI v4.1), and got:
flashing "radio"- PLEASE WAIT
"radio" flash- FAILED
and with Fastboot:
Sending radio....OKAY
(and gets stuck on..) flashing radio............
At this point the phone is sitting next to me frozen trying to update the radio, but the red status bar froze right before it finished.
I've tried wiping the radio partition, and all other partitions (except the "bootloader" partition, even I'M not that stupid ), and tried it again, but it froze again on the red status bar, in the same spot.
(In case you dont know, there are two steps, a GREEN status bar, showing fastboot uploading the "radio.img" file to the phone, and the RED status bar, showing its progress with the flash).
BUMP: (see update above)
EDIT:
Ok, my mom decided to call T-Mobile and get me a replacement device, and apparently they ran out of MyTouch's, so they are going to send me a free Motorola Cliq (SWEET, physical keyboard!)
I do have a question though, is it safe to send it back with fastboot saying a different SPL and Radio version than it shipped with? or should i erase all partitions?
Actually you can fix it VERY easily.
What you had is a known problem..
To fix it you first have to match the radio and spl versions..
Then you can change your radio...
So... to fix:
flash 1.76.2007 spl to match the radio...
Then you change both radio and spl to a good combo for your phone.. e.g.:
spl= 1.33.2010, radio = 2.22.23.02, recovery= Amon RA G-version...
When this is done... the last thing is to flash the system/android system..
This can be done from fastboot using img files or done from the custom recovery using normal rom.zip!
This has been answered like 5-8 times before my me alone. not to mention the others...
I hope that it works out for you :0)
Some info regarding the above:
The spl has internal info about where the different partitions on the nand are located. When you try to flash the radio and you have a bad combo, the spl tries to flash the radio on bad partition table and it will fail...
But when you flash the spl it will succedes due that the spl is always located on the SAME partition and actually has the same size (512 kb).
Using the good combo... you can then change both spl and radio to match the system..
This is only my thoughts about the issue and not exact facts... it's more complicated than that :0)
Well to be honest i don't WANT to fix it anymore, since I'm getting a new phone, but i need to know if i can send it back with the 2010 SPL and 6.xx radio without any problems from T-Mobile?
Then just erase all partitions..
It will not even turn on...
Code:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase data
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase radio
fastboot erase hboot
This should be epic
Thanks!
EDIT: BWAHAHAHA IT IS DEAD! (Sorry, i get a little nutty sometimes).
what about this
i have
T-mobile my touch 3g 3.5mm
Sapphire PVT 32a ship s-on h
Hboot-1.76.0009(sapp31000)

ruu
wrong flashing RUU..and stuck here,,radio and SPL are match ..
and i can't do anything, fastboot remote not allowed.
trying flashing with RUU again and stuck when unzipping system at 81%..
any advice for me?..
what does it mean fail-iE..when flashing boot.
wow thank you so much. just spent the last 3 hours searching for this and thanks to you i just fixed the mytouch issue. thank you again.
