EBI1 port tool - myTouch 3G, Magic General

hey guys, back when I was on the EBI1 radio for my phone I would use magic port to make my kernals (to boot 32b roms)

This seems to be outdated, is there something new everyone uses or am I missing something?

Is this where I want to be with an EBI1 G1?

hey guys, over in the dream/g1 dev forum thw roms are all made for non ebi1 phones and i must apply the brian crook kernals to them.
Am i correct in saying that i can install the roms made for magic 32A phones on my dream as the magic 32a is just like the 32b dream with the ebi1 3.something radio?
From what I understand. Yes.
If your Dream is EBI1 aka 3.22.XX.XX, you want to apply the rom then apply the kernel patch for EBI1 radios.
its great that i know this but there are lots of g1 ebi1 users now who probably dont know that this section of the forum is where they should be

yeah, if this thing is 32a, I would say follow the how too root a magic guide...although we need a few fearless people to confirm for us.
no they dont.. the radio is different to a regualr 32a... and since the newmytouch 3g has the 3.5mm jack, the drivers are different.... so if we can get some devs cooking some roms it would be great!!!...

[32b] - Switch to [32a]

Hi guys,
I have a Magic32B running an engineering spl and cyanogenmod 5.0.8 - Now I would love to try some of the other 32A roms as there seems to be far more development for those phones - whats the best way to change the radio and recovery so that I can then install some of these custom roms...

Far more developement? Ever been in the G1 section?

32B means less RAM (192MB) and less internal memory for your phone so trying to run a 32A ROM which utilizes all the RAM and memory on a 32B phone would be impossible unless there is a port from 32A > 32B.
Okay I'll forget that idea and take a look in the G1 section cheers
Aaaaaannnnnnd closed!
Thank you, come again.

[Q] Froyo + Sense on 3.22 Magic 32A?

Is there some port of Froyo and Sense on our Old-radio Magic?
I can see only versions for new radio...when can we see that for us old-radio-ed?When??
Just flash the new radio and get it over with
I'm also eagerly waiting for that. Simply switching to the new radio is not possible for everyone, e.g. I have constant dropouts with the NR which is really very anyoing... (and yes, I have tried all different radio versions, checked MD5, reflashed etc.)
I'm not sure, but maybe it could work if u flash 32b/dream sense rom + ported kernel like in CM based roms. I didn't try this so it's just a guess.

I donĀ“t think it's a good idea... Probably the phone won't even boot. Usually sense rom's requires kernels related to the original HTC kernel.
i can hardly wait for a 2.2 rom with sense. i love the sense ui interface ! i don't want to use any kind of launchers. when will it come out ?

there is not be , because the rom senusUI required the system-partition is larger than 140m, but with the old version of the radio(3.22.xxxx) system-partition is limited 90m to supporting the old spl(1.33.xxxx) , so if you need use the old radio with sense, you must through the way the like MTD to make the size of system-partition is bigger for the job but pay attention to expand the system-partition is to reduce date-partition.
I'm sorry but where can I find a Froyo + Sense ROM?

Recovery Mode / ROM Flash help...

Searched & not found a solution...Sorry if this is in wrong thread.
I have a MT3G 1.2 (32A) --> Stock ROM, just rooted it.
Trying to install CyanogenMod ROM --> I boot into recovery mode and get the big Triangle with the yellow exclamation point above the image of a phone.
I am new to android development/hacking, and have read a lot, but can't seem to figure out what this issue is.
I can pull the battery & reboot no problem, and can boot into fastboot no problem. This ROM apparently has to be done via recovery mode, which I'm still trying to figure out, hence my issue.
I've found some awesome step-by-step instructions on how to root & do other things, but I seem to get a bit confused when trying to follow the step-by-steps of installing a custom ROM....even following: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.ph...anogenMod_5+ The issue for me is when am I entering data on the phone & when am I doing it on my PC TO the phone via shell, etc.
Any help ... a link to a tutorial I've missed or explanation as to why I'm getting the jacked icon on my phone would be greatly appreciated.
HBOOT: 1.33.0013

Radio 2.22.23.02
Currently stock 1.6 ROM
DYING to get updated stuff....missing the Exchange sync of my HD2 (btw, anyone want to buy a perfectly good HD2 with cracked screen? touch still works, etc.)

First... wrong section. Your post belongs in General because it's not Development related.
Second... you just need to flash a custom recovery. Use Amon_Ra's 1.7.0G or ClockworkMod recovery for Google devices.
By the way... I want to make this clear. You do NOT have a 32A phone! You have a 32B. Even though it says 32A, the only thing that it 32A is the amount of memory. You need 32B kernels, radios, roms, etc.
Thanks Bin...sorry for wrong section...
Question: So how on earth would I know I don't have the 32A & need to use 32B ROMs, etc.
This is the Tmobile MT3G with 3.5 mm jack (not fender edition)...When I power up with the vol down, it EVEN SAYS "Sapphire PVT 32A Ship S-On G
By that theory, I should be able to just use the Tmobile update that came out for the 32B, right? Everything I've read says that's NOT the case. Please help me understand this before I go bricking my phone by flashing wrong combo of stuff...
Thanks!

Nope... probably not. Because the normal 32B device have a different memory map and different drivers (touch screen and headphone jack) the OTA for 32B devices may not work either. Also our devices have twice as much RAM that is only available in kernels that are built specifically for 32A devices that use 32B radios. The only device like that is the one you're using. Otherwise if you use a 32B rom that isn't built specifically for your type of device you only get half of the ram. Hey, you have the same device as I do.... and I bought it (via upgrade) when it came out. Now I have to wait another 12+ months before I can do another upgrade. Obviously, I regret doing it. You have two options, flash a custom rom from the G1 section, or unroot and wait for the official OTA. Unfortunately I have lost interest in this device and am waiting to either purchase the MyTouch 4G or the Nexus S at full price when the prices drop a little. Until then, like you, I'm stuck.
Thanks again Bin! Yeah, I got this phone off ebay for $100 last month after dropping my HD2 - I don't qualify for an upgrade until end of February -- I'm hoping something really fun is announced at CES in a couple weeks. I love the nexus S, but am not getting a phone that doesn't support HSPA+ !!! Same reason I wouldn't get the HD7 -- maybe the rumors will be true & we'll get the dual-core LG Optimus 2X !!!! THat's a sweet lil piece of hardware.
Anyway, back to this phone...alright so you're telling me that none of the 32A ROMS will work on this phone either? THat might explain why I've been having trouble installing custom ROMs - I am rooted & have ClockWorkMod's recovery.
I tried flashing the newest cyanogenmod ROM (update-cm-6.1.0=DS-signened.zip and the kernel but it didn't work & I tried the 2.2.1_Frg83D-32a.zip ROM too...both locked up & I had to recover...
Not asking you what ROM I should install, but which ones have worked & you like? Are you saying the G1 ROMs will work on this phone/battery, etc.?
Or should I switch the SPL/Radio combo that my phone says it has to install other 32A ROMs? I'm really confused now.
Thanks for your help!!!
WOW, I didn't WIPE before I installed the ROM...that solved my problem...now time to play with my new phone toys....thanks again for your help!!!

No problem. Just stick with 32B roms and don't bother changing your radio or spl. Too much work for little (if any) accomplishment.
If you want to flash CM6.1, be careful of what you do to the radios / spl... you need a specific version of these to be compatible with CM (unless you start looking at specialized kernels...)
I think the CM wiki mentions which versions are compatible....
