yeah i already tried that. I even tried different versions of Amon Ra... 1.7.0G and 1.6.2G ...

bump... i even tried using the clockwork recovery

I'm having this problem.
I cannot boot into recovery mode, hboot/fastboot only
Nothing has successfully installed the recovery. I am only trying to switch ROMs to try one that's supposed to be fast.
I have HTC myTouch Magic it previosly had RA , and I dunno what caused recovery to disappear.
IT SAYS this at the top
Sapphire pvt 32b ship s-on g
hboot 1.33.0006 (sapp30000)
clpd-10
radio-2.22.23.02
I'm going to try to do things over again,
//theunlockr.com/2009/08/22/how-to-unroot-your-mytouch-3g/
BTW it is a HT Magic G2 (HTC MyTouch with Google)
----
Ok downgrade worked, now if it can get it back and running unlocked again!

I cant even downgrade to 1.5 to get the root required i used androot but i cant get amon ra recovery. How were u able to downgrade to 1.5? I tried flashing sappimg but it keeps pushing me to 1.6

Trouble Rooting Mytouch 1.2

Hello,
I'm not an expert at modding and hacking but I can definately follow directions. I used a G1 for about a year and flashed it plenty of times with different roms, radios, and spls. I ended up getting a MyTouch 1.2 and proceeded to try to root it so that I can enjoy CM's great roms.
Followed the directions on the unlockr
Made the gold card and went to flash the sappimg.img from the site. The flash went through fine but the phone just got stuck at the HTC Magic screen. Now I know what my mistake was there. I didn't think it was a big deal and continued with the steps. Mainly because I didn't see any infomation on what to do if it doesn't go through. Flashed the radio, then went to the hboot. Received image update failed error message. Long story short, I experienced what having a brick feels like.
The reason I am explaining all of this is for people to learn from my mistakes and to get some clarification on what I am writing next.
I got the phone exchanged (only had it for a day) and began researching more to find out what I did wrong. I found this crypysmoker's thread.
And then I found the message:
READ READ READ. DO NOT download the SAPPimg.zip file it says on that page.
Get the top fixed SPL file 2010 from here
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In my research, I discovered that the mytouch 1.2 has several spl's that have been hacked and not. I figured out that the file on theunlockr wasn't the fixed spl and that is mainly the reason for my brick and the frozen HTC Magic screen.
I want to enjoy the gifts that CM has to offer. Being stuck on normal 1.6 is well saddening to say the least. But I am worried about flashing the wrong spl and have the situation repeat again as I would figure I would be screwed this time around and wouldn't be able to get it replaced.
Can anyone provide more information about this? Can I flash the Engineerings SPL v1.33.2010 and not run into the same problem? I understand that there isn't a 100% certainty of working. Most of my searches show that more people have bricked this phone than any other.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the length.

Well, I did it all again. Redownloaded all the files. Setup a new goldcard. This time I let it sit for over 45 mins. Never got past the HTC Magic Screen. Adb doesn't see it nor does the light come on to say that it is charging. Which would show me that it has indeed locked up.
Anyways it shut off on its own since it wasn't getting usb power and I guess the battery died. I'm still able to reboot back to hboot. I attempted to reflash the sappimg.zip file. Right now its going on 10 mins sitting on the
[1] SYSTEM - Unzipping
What I will add tho is that my info changed.

I tried reformatting the SD and recreated the Gold Card as I noticed some of the Hex changed but still getting the same issue.
the phone won't run anything other than spl 1.33.0013 and radio 2.22.23....w/e x)
Get the sappimg you had before and flash it in hboot mode which should give you spl 1.33.0013. In fastboot mode, flash your spl to 1.33.2010again, then flash radio 2.22.23 or w/e, then flash amon ra recovery, then flash stock spl (1.33.0013).
All the files you need are here: http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/11/how-to-root-the-mytouch-1-2-and-fender-mytouch/
The reason it wont boot up is because you have engineering spl and the wrong radio on. Again, it will only boot up with the stock radio and spl~!!!

I don't know where I would find the original stock sappimg. The one that is on the website is the sappimg that needs to go on when you are stock at the beginning.
Also my HBoot doesn't seem to be unzipping cause that is where it gets stuck. Is there a way to do it all from fastboot? Since I am currently stuck in the 2010 spl, can I flash the stock spl through fastboot without the radio?
I just don't get why I am having this problem. I followed that website to the letter. And I know that at this point if I attempt to flash the radio back to stock, I will completely brick it.
Since you dont want to flash the radio, flash the amon ra recovery FIRST. Then flash the stock spl. If it doesn't boot up, then you'll need to get the engineering spl back on again and flash stock radio (the one in the link).

I couldn't flash the recovery in fastboot.
Tried Fastboot boot recovery recovery.img
Got an error message Recovery not found.
Wasn't sure if I wanted to try flashing the recovery before finding out if it can brick it. Like the original post says, my first MT1.2 I flash the spl from unlockr screen locked up but could get into fastboot so flashed the radio and then tried the spl like the directions say and I completely bricked it.
I don't want to make the same mistake twice.
Unfortunately, there's a chance of bricking every time you flash anything.
Anyways, this might be redundant but is the recovery imaged named recovery.img? Like you actually renamed it? If not, you'll have to type out the exact name.

No it wasn't named recovery.img, was just using it to save time. I did spell out the recovery's full name.
When you enter the command "fastboot devices" it shows a serial number right? And the recovery image is in your tools folder of your androidsdk folder?
Sorry for the redundant questions, we're just going back to the basics really quick right now.

yup and yup
I see the problem. Your mobo is recognized as 32a S off H. You're recovery image is probably the G version. What you could do is download the H version and flash it although i doubt your phone will still boot up at that point.
You could try flashing the H version of amon ra's recovery image and afterwards, see if it boots up. Then, if it doesnt boot up, flash stock spl (1.33.0013) and see if it boots up.
I'm pretty sure your phone will end up not booting up and you'll eventually have to flash stock radio as well and then flash the G version recovery back on.
The reason your mobo is recognized as the H version and not the G version is because of the radio.
EDIT: I just realized I made a mistake. I meant to say the mobo is recognized as the H version because of the SPL, not the radio.

Heres your problem. If recovery is not found then you didnt put it in your Androidsdk\tools folder did you? or did you rename it? Oooorr, you put it in there while adb was running and didnt restart it to see the file itself

I can tell that the radio is still the old one. It seems the spl worked and put it back to stock but still no recovery and I guess I can't fastboot anything either.
So I assume I need to flash back eng spl and see if it will boot, right?
Even as the recovery and spl are compatible, you see that it still won't boot up. What you gotta do now is flash the engineering spl and do the same as before except flash the radio as well.
In the end, your mytouch should read:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13
RADIO-2.22.23.02
The same as stock before EXCEPT this time, you'll have amon ra's recovery. That's when you know you're done. Just follow the guide from before and you'll be fine.

Solved
I would like to start out by saying, Thank you so much hacker01 for your help! You don't know how much I appreciate everything.
I was able to get it back working and fully running CM5.0.7
After I reloaded the eng spl, like I said, I was running into the same problems. Wouldn't boot, goes into fastboot, etc.
I grabbed the stock radio and spl NOT from the unlockr page this time but from the link on crypysmoker's thread.

Just like it said and sure enough got into recovery! Flashed a rom and it booted up.
I know this technically isn't solved cause I really don't know what went wrong in the first place. I can ensure you that I can follow directions and did. The only thing that makes any sense is the files on theunlockr's website is bad. Guess we can just chalk it up to bad luck.
But if anyone wants to root their mytouch 1.2, crypysmoker's thread is definitely the way to go.
Thank you again hacker01! I hope I can pay it forward.
You did it right, it's just that any radio that is not 2.22.23 won't work with the mt3g 1.2/Fender LE right now. And no problem! Glad you got it up and running. Enjoy your mytouch
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general
Please, help!
I have the exact same problem: I was following the Unlockr's instructions, made the goldcard, flashed the sappimg without getting any errors, and now the phone is stuck on the htc magic boot screen. I am not experienced and now I am scared sh**less, because the phone belongs to my girlfriend Please, give me step-by-step instructions how to fix it, because I really dont want to improvise. The phone is MyTouch 1.2...
Thank you in advance!!!

I previously was stuck in a reboot loop which I finally got out by creating a goldcard and using 2.53.707.2_-_sappimg.zip. I am able to use the phone but thats about it. There is no access to sd card I have tried numerous cards and they don't work.

I would like to thank anyone in advance for their help. I have searched and been searching the forums for 2 days non-stop usually its stated that you need an Engineering SPL (which I guess I am already using) can't downgrade because I have no access to sdcard either. Please help........
Try going here and grabbing the sappimg from there, load it onto your goldcard, and flash it from hboot the same way you did the first time. There's another guy I was working with on here that tried to use the same engineering SPL and it didn't work, but I don't know if he ever tried that one. The sappimg I'm referring you too is the same one I used when I rooted my phone. Give it a shot and let us know back here.

Your right I was not using HBOOT but it didn't make a difference I still get the verification error using fastboot.
As you suggested I should try updating using recovery but like I said the SDcard is not detected. I used the "fastboot -c board_sapphire.disable_sdcard=0 boot recovery...*" and it detected the sd card when I try to update the using the zip file it gets stuck at Opening update package....
Any other options?

Knackered my gf's magic - need some help!

Hi all,
I've been trying to install the amon RA recovery rom on mg gf's magic, but I'm stuck in a loop.
I've got a non perfect SPL loaded which boots into cupcake
Sapphire PVT 32B Ship S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-3.22.20.17
However when I try to run fastboot boot recovery.img it restarts and gets stuck on the splash screen.
I've re-made the sd card to be a gold card and I've still got the issue.
I've also tried running fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and I get Infosignature checking... FAILED )remote : signature verify fail).
Can anyone help me sort this?
Many thanks
will
You're using a non-engineering SPL, so all fastboot commands will fail. 1.33.2005 has fastboot enabled and you should be able to flash it from your currect state, however I was on .26i radio when I flashed it so I don't know for certain.
EDIT: Since you're on cupcake you should be able to use flashrec to flash the recovery image, so not engineering SPL required!
Hi Adrian,
thanks so much for replying.
In the meantime I've tried another sappimg and this has taken me to 1.33.2010 which has let me fastboot flash recovery... but when I try to boot into recovery (hold home and restart) all i get is the htc magic spash screen
The other issue is that the rom ive now got is lacking the google tools and therefore market, so i cant get flashrec
Any thoughts?
thx
No problem about missing the market, do "adb install *Drag FlashRec APK here*", that will get it installed.
How long did you hold down home+power to get to recovery? The first time I did it after loading up Amon Ra's 1.7.0 it took me holding them for around 1.5-2 minutes before it finally booted in.
Hiya,
I waited about 5 mins or so
I've now got flashrec installed... looking for what to do next?
Here. Start at step 12 assuming you've already got a recovery image.
Hmm, just tried that and it flashes in an instant (too quick tbh!), so im wondering if this is because its already got the recovery on it from when i did it via fastboot
After restarting and holding home im still getting just the splash screen
Is there a way to view what is on the /recovery/ partition, or is there a reason its not wanting to boot into it?
thx
Which recovery image are you using?

Hopefully it won't come to that. I think he's loading the wrong recovery image.
recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
Try re-downloading the recovery image from here and try flashing again. If it doesn't work I think your going to have to try going Adrian's route.
Better yet, you can get it from step 5 here for a quicker download.
Also, when you were in FlashRec running the "/sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.2.3.img" command did you change recovery-RA-dream-v1.2.3.img to match the filename of your recovery image?
I've just managed to update the recovery, but strangely this is using the 32A recovery.. and not 32B.. but I've got a vodafone Magic
So I can now get into recovery and have followed the steps or dangerSPL, followed by cyanogen mod + gapps, but not i cant get it to fully start up and im stuck on splash screen
V confused now.. just checked in hboot and its still showing sapphire pvt 32b eng s-off H
Hboot 1.76.2007
radio 3.22.20.17
looks like the gf's not having a mobile tomorow.. oh dear im in trouble!
any ideas again much appreciated!
thx
Can you run any fastboot commands?
Yes I can now run fastboot commands and use the recovery tool
thx
Hi all,
hope to get some more help, sorry!!
After looking more into this it seems that one of the previous images i put on the 32b phone was a 32a radio... hence the issue with putting on the recovery image for the 32b not working.
So... i downloaded myTouch-radio-2_22_23_02.zip and using the recovery did an update from zip.. now however the phone boots and all i get is a picture of a box with an arrow pointing to an android robot (see attached!)
At this rate its looking like i need to buy a new phone!
cheers all

I can flash a new radio on it and a new SPL on it, it takes that when i flash it
To root the phone you need to use the ENG spl 2010 flash your custom recovery, then stock radio and spl. After that, flash ROMs thru recovery. You can not use any other radio/spl at this time.

Does your phone have the 3.5mm jack? Are you sure you've got a 1.2?
Well, If your phone still turns on and your have a working goldcard, try the ENG 2010 SPL from the Magic SPL thread. once you are back down to 1.33.2010 SPL and 3.22.x radio, fastboot your custom recovery, flash stock mytouch 1.2 radio then spl.
At that point, you won't have any OS tho. so, go into recovery, wipe all (but NOT your SD goldcard). Then flash custom ROM+gapps (if needed)
What is your fastboot info RIGHT NOW....
Remember that if you have a MyTouch 1.2 (with 3.5mm headphone jack) you MUST have the following AFTER you flash your custom recovery.
Radio: 2.22.23.02
SPL: 1.33.0013
So use the engineering SPL (2010) and 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' with a Amon_Ra 1.7.0G or Clockwork Recovery for MyTouch devices (NOT MAGIC).
Afterwards reboot to your recovery by holding HOME while booting. If you can boot into recovery then flash your stock spl (1.33.0013) back. Then flash your rom.

So i had to fix the SPL on the mytouch because i kept getting the Fastboot Remote Not allow, So i did the SPL Fix and rebooted and i had a black HTC Magic screen, Got some progress then it said to throw a rom on there but i couldnt get to recovery, i try to flash a recovery and i get remote signature verify fail. So i tried flashing the SAPPIMG again and it is stuck on unzipping, Rebooted again and tried to flashboot boot recovery.img it transfers the recovery and reboots and stuck ad the black htc magic screen again.
Well i made some progress i can flash recovery and stuff now but it wont boot to recovery, i got the recovery to flash successfull but for some reason when i hold home and power it sits at the magic screen

I had the same issue the other day while experimenting on my mt3g 1.2. What worked for me was using adb to push the stock mt3g hboot and radio and then rerooting my phone. You can download the files you need from the unlockr.com web page and skim his how-to for android in the unrooting section. Hope this helps.
does it still boot into fastboot, hboot, or recovery?

if it boots into fastboot, hboot, or recovery you are not sunk yet. you will need the "official" sappimg.zip or .nbh on your gold card, but it should go through the steps and re-image it.. this will get your phone back to stock.
are you using a Tmobile MyTouch 1.2? or are you using a Rogers Magic?
the files will be different as the hardware requires differnent drivers.
there are many links on this site, or theunlockr.com that will get you the correct files you will need. make sure you check the md5 sums on anything you download to make sure its not corrupted before trying to flash it.
hope this helps.

[Q] MT3G 1.2 no adb/recovery/rom

I've been looking non stop for a week for a solution and none seem to work for me. It's a 1.2 with a 3.5mm jack on the top.
Ok, well first, i rooted it and it was working fine: recovery, adb, rom. But then i decided to run cyanogen 7. I flashed 6.35 radio wrong and in the wrong order. I panicked and went into fastboot and erased radio, recovery, and hboot. Then i tried to flash using fastboot and it says now failed<remote: not allow>
i do have a fastboot device.
Displayed on phone:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.76.0010 (SAPP31000)

Use the "Old school" root method from my signature.
