i was trying to root my phone and i thought i had. when i tried to reboot it all it did was stay on the vodafone boot up screen. i can get into fast boot and recovery mode and apparently it's fixable, i just don't know how. i still haven't rooted it yet. Can somebody savemy phone?

Hey everyone,
i was trying to root my HTC Magic, following this guide:
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Rooting
i installed RAv1.2.0 : Modded ION recovery! (the H version)
used fastboot
fastboot boot recovery-new.img
then i told it to update from the update.zip that i put on the microSD card.
it said it finished loading the firmware, i did a reset, and now the phone wont load
its just stuck in the "HTC Magic" message that it does when loading, and dosnt get out of it.
I tried doing a battery pull, dosnt solve it.
i can still get into fastboot mode.
Can anyone tell me what i did wrong and how to recover my phone?
thanks.
BTW, my phone is rev 32A
OK, i fixed my issue,
connected my microSD to another phone, put the version
[Updated 7/22] [ROM] RAv1.1.0 (HTC branded Magics)
Can anyone tell me whats the most recommended version?
maybe something with multitouch?
I liked the original one as well
but i needed root to install the hebrew fonts
this might be in the wrong section not sure.....
Ok i dont think my phone is bricked because i can a use it... i just cant boot into recovery. when i try to it just hangs on the mytouch 3g splash screen... (The one that you get when you first boot your phone)
It all started when i installed ROM manager and installed the recovery image they want you to use... but when it wouldnt let me boot into recovery i used rom manger to flash back recovery-1.6.2 and i still cant boot back... Please help...
Thanks in Advance

never mind i got it to work
here's the story,
i installed rom manager from the market. flashed the clockwork recovery using it, then tried to flash a new rom using rom manager. i am sure that the rom is compatible with my settings. now my phone is in the boot loop and i can't get into recovery nor the bootloader. any help?
32a s-off
radio 6.35
2007 spl
i can only remember the basics of my device since i can't get into the bootloader...
THANKSSS
Did you pull the battery and then try booting into recovery/bootloader? If you get thrown into the bootloop when you put the battery back in, try holding back/home while putting the battery in.
Thanks for helping me! I actually did try that method but I was back to boot loop again. I really hate that "Rogers" screen.
Does that mean I'm bricked for good?
as it turns out, HTC makes magical device as it cured itself from the brick!!
i basically gave up and just left it running till the battery goes out, the next day, it is booted into the rom.
truly magical!!!!
True happened to me once when I tried to load my first rom. Just let it sit there while I'm searching the forums trying to look for some answers then voila it booted up properly
too bad i semi bricked it AGAIN!!! i really am bad at this...
flashed rogers official rom over cm. should have done some research first. still trying to fix it. but its not bad, learn a lot everything time i do something wrong.
Did you wipe prior to flashing a new rom?

I've done the same mistake and my device hanged at rogers rom with radion 3.22 and SPL 1.76 S-ON. I've briked mine very bad that time, but yours might yet be recoverable. If you have s-off, the i think you're saved. Post your hboot info here...
