ignore it.. 3.22.26.17 is if you have the 911patched rogers rom from january.. my guess is you had the older rogers rom or another stock 3.x radio htc rom with 3.22.20.17.
If you have 1.33.2005 spl and a 3.x radio just continue with flashing the rom

i have a 32b sapphire (aka Mytouch3g) and i would like to upgrade my radio it doesnt seem to get as good of reception as my G1 did after i did the radio/spl update
so my question is can i change it from the radio that comes on it to the new radio update i used on my g1(they are both 32b boards right?) without bricking my device?

just a thought... if i flashed the danger SPL (haykuro's danger SPL) i should in theory be able to update the radio with the latest OTA radio update because the g1 and mytouch use same radios right?
please some insight would be grand
I also have a mytouch 3g T-mobile USA phone, and my reception is okay, but I think it can be better. Looking to flash to the latest greatest radio, but I don't want to brick my phone
I am also using drizzy's latest hero rom.
my mytouch's radio ends with 26i which was what the latest g1 radio ended with. Maybe mytouch already comes with latest?
Baseband is 62.50s.20.17h_2.22.19.26I
I bought my magic about 2 months ago... And 50 roms ago... lol
Bump
Where can I find the latest radio update?
Thanks!
EDIT: I have a 32a Magic.

It's the Radio that's giving you grief. Cyanogen will not run on 6.35.x radio. I've been down that road already.
What I ended up doing was reapplying the Rogers RUU from last July and then rooting from there. I'm now running CM 5.0.7 Test 3 and I'm using the radio that was installed on the Dream with the mandatory E911 update. So far it's been 7 hours and my data hasn't been cut yet. Fingers crossed.
If you want to keep that SPL and Radio combo, I've seen mentions of cursordroid as a Rom that will run on it. I'm using SPL 1.33.2005 with Radio 3.22.26.17
I did this on an HTC Magic from Rogers that uses an EBI1 radio, if your phone uses the EBI0 radio don't try to use the radio that I did. I did also see somewhere on the forum here that one of the members has a batch file for performing the changes between the SPL/Radio combos. You'll have to look around.
thanks man,
Downgraded back to 3.22 Radio and SPL

worked like charm
Hey guys I've done a lot of searching and have come up with nothing.
I have successfully rooted my girlfriends Magic 32A and it is now running
Radio: 6.35.10.18
SPL: 1.76.2007
I would like to flash Cyanogen RC2 to the phone but when I try it has an error saying (Type 7) or something at the bottom and just before that it says stuff about H-Boot 1.36 or something similar which I realise is a different version to what I am currently running.
Does Cyanogen not work with the specifications I have? and if not then what can I do to get it on my girlfriends Magic?
It's currently running FroyoRiders rom which installed fine but I want her to have a working camera.
Any help would be great, thanks!
*Edit* I have also tried like 5 different recoveries so I'm pretty sure it is not that!
I recently had similar issues on my Rogers Magic with flashing roms, no matter what rom I tried, nothing seemed to want to flash properly until I reverted back to the old radio/spl combo. Once I did that, I've been able to flash whatever rom I want, of course needing a kernel port for some roms to work on the 32a, but it is a whole lot further than no roms at all
The old SPL was perfected and wouldn't allow me to flash roms... Can someone suggest a SPL and Radio combo that work with Cyanogen 32A and perhaps a way to get that SPL/Radio combo?
No, I'm talking older than that. I'm using the old radio with the spl 1.33.2009, I believe that's the one anyway... give me about an hour and I'll point you to the tool I used

Okay thanks, I've got a feeling that you need SPL 1.33.x or something for Cyanogen Rom to install as I have 1.76.x .. However I can't find anything confirming this anywhere. It is safe to downgrade to a 1.33 SPL on a 32A with 6.35.10.18 radio?
Well, for one thing reading the forums would have brought you to the conclusion that new radio and old spl don't play well together. You can only use spl 1.33 with radio 3.22 and spl 1.76 with radio 6.35.
In the sapphire dev forum you'll find a tool to switch radio and spl quickly and safely. Use it to move to the old radio/spl and install whatever rom you want from recovery.

Okay yeah I pretty much gathered that from reading around... What I'm wondering is does Cyanogen actually require the 1.33 spl to install?
Not if you don't need a working camera/camcorder

Ah okay so the other radio is required for the camera drivers. Which would explain why it doesn't work on this FroyoRider rom then I take it?
Thanks for your help. I'll try use this Radio Switcher to go to the other version then flash Cyanogen RC2
*Edit* Just to make sure, does using the "Flash Default SPL, Radio, Recovery" on Radio Switcher get me to the right 1.33 version? Or do I need to find the custom files somewhere?
Open the latest version of the tool (3.5 I think) and click flash old with your phone in fastboot and connected to your pc. All the files you need are included in the archive.
I also had this issue trying to flash RC2 on my Rogers Magic.
Please be aware that if we flash the old radio Rogers will block data.
Is there any way to keep the new radio and get around this flashing issue? I'd love to try CM6 but not without data!
I'm happy to provide any logs or whatever.
Confused about flashing SPLs. Never flashed one before. The radio I have installed is the myTouch-radio-2_22_23_02 and I want to flash the Danger SPL but are they compatible. Moreover, I've see and heard different tutorials about the subject. Some say when flashing a new spl wipe/flash radio first, then wipe/flash radio, then partition sd card, finally flash rom. Some say just wipe/flash the new spl w/out then rom. Which one is it? I already have the radio installed that I want to use, so do I have to flash it again to flash a new spl?
Phone: MT3G (32B)
Radio: 2_22_23_02
SPL: 1.33.0006
ROM: Gingerfly 1.7 D/S ADS
Android: 2.2.1
The new/old radio and SPL talk is for the 32A - the Magic sold in Canada, Brazil and some parts of Europe. You shouldn't worry about that.
You can flash the SPL and you're done.
Thanks I'll give it a shot

Well, I managed to do something which I regret profusely now.
When I heard that the HTC Magic was getting an official update I thought that it would have been a fast, optimised Froyo experience. Boy was I wrong.
Now I'm stuck with a phone that can't open the messaging application without closing the homescreen process and the old methods to root my phone no longer work.
And to top it off, I wanted to use CyanogenMod 4 since 1.6 runs the best on my phone, yet I don't know if I can do that anymore since the update also changed the radio and I think the SPL.
So, long story short, how can I get a 1.6 ROM on this phone now?
Also an unimportant question, would Replicant still work on this phone if it has the new radio?
Is there no one who can help with this?
I was just wondering what ROMs are compatible with the new radio and SPL.
They're 2.22.28.25 and 1.33.0013 respectively, I'm pretty sure they are anyway.

This rom is compatible...

for 32b you need SPL 1.33.0013d and RADIO 2.22.28.25 or 27.08 just flash normal ginger yoshi
Another compatible rom
All you need is get root and flash custom recovery, then rom through recovery...
