Help me decide wich mytouch to buy - myTouch 3G, Magic General

So i have a g1 rooted. But i want to upgrade and have 375 dollars to put towards a phone. can you root the new mytouch 1.2 and are the roms for it worth it? with the extra ram id like to run a sense or espresso rom, but if they are not 100% i do like cyanogen roms. Is it worth the upgrade ? and should i get the 32A phone since it has more ram? will all of the mytouch / ion /magic /saphire phones work on tmobile 3G???
And thanks allot for any help guys

well all mt3g 1.2's are 32a but not in the tradtional sense your used to.
Yes you can root it and run most roms that you were running on your g1 they have been ported. I am running a 2.1 no problem as for sense ui no idea i hate those roms but i believe they work just fine.

what is wrong with myhero?
I think it's one of the snappiest roms for the 32A, hero or non-hero.
Cyanogen is my recommendation too for a non-hero rom. Try the experimental donut one.

Cyanogen is the best non Hero ROm i think , just tried it out for the last Days but anyway for me the MyHero Roms are faster in scrolling , if haven't too much programs in the background loaded i would still prefer the MyHero

Magic ROMS on my EBI1 HTC Dream (rogers)?

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?

[REQ] Legend to Slide Froyo AND sense?

Since the HTC legend recently got Android 2.2 Froyo w/ sense, is there going to be someone to port the rom to the Slide?
I love the functionality of sense but I don't want to have to downgrade to eclair to get it.
So if anybody knows about work being done on that or if someone wants to volunteer, please inform me and anyone else who passes by this thread
Its gonna have the same problems as the 3rd sense rom because we don't have the official 2.2 kernel for mytouch slide! Which means I don't think anyone is going to port it! Check out 3rd sense though its stable enough and is the same sense ui

I am currently running cyanogen mod 6.1 stable for my slide with clockwork recovery. Do I need to flash/install anything else before flashing this rom?

Nope, all you need to do is a wipe before installing it so you dont get any weird errors

Oh man it works amazingly, I had to disable javascript for the browser to run alright though. Otherwise it is an amazing rom. I ran into some less than polite stuff when I posted in the thread, but I suppose I am a noob. Thanks for the suggestion.

Sapphire - MT3G Fender & 1.2 ROMS
The only Sense ROM I'm aware of is based on the MT3G Slide and can be found here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673503
Ginger Yoshi has gotten decent reviews by Fender owners. It can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673503
There are also stock Froyo mods with custom kernels and streamlined app loads in the works from what I've heard.
You can flash ROM's from the G1 forum. There are a few with Sense there.

im aware of that. but, wat if it specifies the radio? or i just flash and it will work.
any kernals i have to flash if i want one?
If it specifies a radio, no. You don't have to install any kernels. Make sure you do a nandroid backup before flashing so that if the ROM doesn't work you can restore your backup.
thanks for quick replies. ummm any sense roms tht work for mytouch 1.2/fender without a2sd? and is fast and stable?

[Q] HTC Magic 32B recommended ROM's

Hi there, HTC Magic user here.
I've gone back to stock ROMs for a bit but lately I've been wanting to go back to a rooted phone.
My previous experience with Cyanogenmod 5 and 6 has been terrible, the phone ran slow and even completely stock there would be either launcher restarts after running even the messaging app or app force closes if the launcher was kept in memory. The only ROM's that worked well were 1.6 based ones but of the three that most people use, they all have problems which make them difficult to use in the long run.
tl;dr What ROM's are you using with your 32B Magic and what optimisations do you do to stop lag and memory overflows happening?
Ezgingerbread (link in my sig) is what I usually use. Its pretty light and fast.
If you want as many cm features as possible while still having some speed try cos-ds.
If you really like cm features, there's greenromproject cm7 or anotger cm7 rom who's name I can't remember. I haven't used those yet so I can't say anything about speed there.
And these are all gingerbread roms. Idk what to suggest for other versions.. I got into android right before cm6.1

Does Gingerbread need a new radio firmware on the Magic?

Nope. There are gingerbread roms for every radio. If you are talking about the 2708+ radio then I would recommended it for the extra ram
I'm currently running Ginger Yoshi 1.2 and love it. I've used CM 5.0.8, CM6, Ginger Yoshi 1.1 and now 1.2. All have worked great on my phone. The one thing for me is that I wipe everything...everytime. To include my SD card manually. I save my files on my computer and put them back after I load up the ROM.

Search is your friend
If your phone is rooted you could always get Rom Manager Free from the Market and get the rom of your choice. I use CyanogenMod-6.0.0-DS and the phone runs great. It's actually the only ROM my phone has been able to handle fully with no issues. OS 2.2 is the highest I would put on the MT3G. I've tried Yoshi's, EzTerry, Greenrom, etc.. and all either had issues or just wouldn't work.
Search in this forum, RC Magic V7, SFM 1.2 sense 2.1 (Its great recomended), or clean magic (Fast). All whit htc sense! I tested all and work greats!

Have used both SFM 1.2 and Clean Magic 5.01. Would highly recommend either of them. The new lock screen in SFM 1.2 is very cool though

Sorry, just realised they are both 32A only ROMs. Maybe take a look at Ginger Yoshi 1.2

I've tried biffmod, gingeryoshi and few others before them, unfortunately each left me wanting to try another rom. Now I'm on froyobylaszlo I simply don't have that yearning for another rom anymore, and I suppose that says it all. I think I made a couple of tweaks but nothing major(can't remember though!) and it runs great, very smooth and fast.
Only issue I have is running speedtest, where it reboots occasionally.

Thanks for that, but they're both 32A ROMs.
My phone is the 32B and only has 192mb of RAM so I don't think they'd run

The ones I recommended above actually are for the 32b though.......

Recommend the rom's froyobylaszlo.
