[Q] Help. I have problem with 32b. Stuck on image. - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hello.
I have a Htc Vodafone Magic, de version.
A few days ago i rooted and install cyanogen 5.0.7 and the i've upgraded to 5.0.8.
I used titanium backup, made a backup, and then i need it to restore. After that i couldn't use the phone.
Then i inserted the goldcard made it earlyer, where i had the rom, and update it.
It was a rom 5.0.7 with no app and no android market, and no root.
Now started in fast boot (vol down + power) and i have :
sapphire pvt 32b eng s-off H
Hboot-1.33.2010 (SAPP10000)
cpld-10
radio3.22.20.17
jun 2 2009, 17:27:03.
When i try to instal a rom it said that he cannot find any rom.
I used the link [How-To] Root and un-root the T-Mobile myTouch 3G
to revert to 32b since i so that i have 32b eng s-off H and i thought that is the problem.
i used this commands
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
It did not work.
No the phone starts and locks on the image with HTC MAGIC.
Thank you for your help.
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RAv1.2.0G.img

No the phone starts and locks on the image with HTC MAGIC.
when the phone stats with usb in it appears fastboot on a red background.
And i cannot use adb commands.
It is bricked?
the fastboot option works. i send recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G thru fastboot and the message was okay.

I think you can download radio 2.22.23.02 as zip file, put it on root of memory card, boot to recovery mode, apply this zip. Everything will be OK.
I flashed it 2 days ago for udating for my Magic radio version from 2.22.19.26I.
You can find the file on this room or I will attach it later.

thank.
i used Revert to 32B Radio and ROM procedure and made it.

can no longer boot into recovery

I have a rooted unlocked Magic 32b and have flashed many roms on it but it has suudenly stopped booting into recovery.
If i hold power and home it now just hangs on vodafone splash screen.
any ideas?
if you have an engineering SPL installed on the phone, you can use fastboot from the SDK to flash a new recovery image (assuming you can still get into fastboot mode on the phone)
Or you can go to Android Market and download ROM Manager & flash recovery through that application (both ClockWorkMod & Amon_RA supported). If the first flash fails don't worry just reflash the same recovery (2nd flash works every time)
Thanks for the help, I reflashed AMon-Ra recovery via fastboot and all is well.
I'm having exactly the same problem.
Think I flashed the 32a instead of 32b onto the magic uk vodafone device:

Could you link to the recovery you managed to flash your phone using please? I've tried loads of versions via adb/flashboot and none work sadly.
Hoping I don't have to buy another phone
I have similar issue to original poster, I've flashed many roms over the last year and all have been fine until now
VOLDN+POWER, HOME+POWER, BACK+POWER are all no go.. all stuck on bootloader splash. Can someone confirm I've finally bricked my 32B?
Last SPL i put on was 1.76.2007 i think (cant confirm no fastboot..) radio was 2.22.19.26I

[Q] Cannot turn security off (S-OFF) on rooted Rogers 32A Magic

I've rooted my Magic, got Cyanogenmod running nicely, etc. I was then trying to flash a new splash screen, and noticed that my security in fastboot shows as begin on (S-ON). Sure enough it wouldn't let me flash the splash screen, it said the signature was not valid.
So, I tried flashing every single engineering SPL possible, and it never changes to off.
Here is my info from the fastboot/hboot screen.

Find zipped hboot, put it in your sd card and flash it trough recovery...

That's what I've done. I've flashed every single engineering hboot file I can find and each one still shows S-ON during fastboot/hboot, and I"m unable to flash through fastboot.
Follow these steps (you should find it in this Mytouch Room)
1. Create your goldcard.
2. Comeback to 1.5 version by flashing rom 1.5 from goldcard.
3. Install Recovery Flasher (RF).
4. Run RF, chose Flash Cyanogen 1.4 img
5. Copy new E-SPL to root of Sdcard, Boot to Recovery mode, flash this file SPL
6. You can flash new recovery img (like 1.7.0G) by fastboot mode through your PC.
Check your new SPL now and S-ON becomes S-OFF.
I've successed on Magic 32B with perfect SPL 1.33.0006 and S-ON.

If this currently a 1.33.20** spl with s=off and a custom recovery can you please do the following
Run 'adb shell dump_image misc /tmp/misc_dat.img'
Then
'adb pull /tmp/misc_dat.img misc_dat.img'
Then send me the resulting image somehow (pm me a rapid share link or ask for my email.. there ought not be any identifiably info in misc but just in case)
This may or may not clear up why there is an issue.. and let a better process to fix it be created.. untill then try unrooting (or installing a stock spl) and re-rooting as was mentioned, just onto forget radio versions may change in the process requiring caution not to skip ahead of yourself and brick.
UPDATE:
So I got the file, misc was nearly all blank without the usual data (boot mode, CID and some other data) this is easily fixed by re-flashing misc from recovery.. I think this can even be made into an update.zip.. (since all magic/dream misc partitions are essentially the same besides the CID, and the CID is still being passed to the recoveries command line when stuck in this state.

Not bricked but not working

My friend handed me their MyTouch 2.1 to fix and I don't know what to do with this one.
When I gave them the phone it had SPL 1.33.2010 and the old 3.22 radio. They were on Cyanogen 6.
He wanted to put Gingerbread on the phone so he upgraded the radio to 6.35.10.18 however recovery went missing. He could flash different recoveries from fastboot but it wouldn't boot in to recovery. It just hung at the green MyTouch screen.
He tried downgrading the radio thinking that would fix the issue with recovery not working. It didn't. As a last resort he flashed the Saphire.nbh. That restored his radio and hboot to a lower version however there still is no recovery installed on the phone and now there is no access to flash via fastboot.

I Can't access the operating system either. it just sits at the green MyTouch screen. The only thing I have access to is Fastboot and hboot.

If you can access fastboot you should be ok.
Download a copy of clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 or amon-ra recovery
Make sure you have android sdk on your computer and a copy of fastboot installed in the tools directory on your computer. Copy the recovery into your tools folder on your computer and rename it recovery.img
Boot the phone into fastboot and connect it to the computer.
Open a terminal on your computer and run "fastboot devices" and make sure it sees the phone, you should get something back like HXXXXXXXX
Then just flash it over.
If I remember correctly the command is
fastboot flash recovery /android-sdk/tools/recovery.img
(that is assuming your android-sdk is in a directory called android-sdk and the recovery.img file is in tools)
fastboot reboot
That will get recover back on the phone. From there with either clockwork or amon_ra you should be able to reflash a rom

Yeah that's not going to work.
@ the OP, since you have a perfected SPL you'll need to create a goldcard and flash an engineering SPL to the phone with it. Then you can do the steps from above. Secondly, since you have the 6.35 radio you'll have to flash Amon Ra's recovery for the Hero, version 1.6.2.

Thanks DonJuan692006. I went hunting for the goldcard I used to originally root his phone. I was able to get the original sappimg.nbh installed on the phone. Fortunately for me it was still on the card.

Now that the phone is functional I can fix it for him. Thanks for the help everyone.
Looks like the I have no access to the SD Card now in the rom. It says Removed SD Card. I've tried 5 different cards 1GB-16GB and it doesn't see any of them.
Interestingly it says "recovery can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0" when I try and flash an update.zip from recovery. This it turning out to be very frustrating.

[Q] Help needed updating 32B radio&spl

Hey guys,
Firstly...
PVT 32B
HBOOT-1.33.0013
CPLD-10
Radio-2.22.23.02
I'm pretty new to this game but I just installed Rushness' Frosense 0.9 on my Magic and it has been a MASSIVE improvement over CM 6.1 which came pre-installed on my phone that I ebay'd from Hong Kong. 6.1 was so slow it was unuseable.
Anyway, I would like to update my Radio/SPL to the latest version. I've done a lot of searching but have run into a few problems, mostly understanding lingo.
I have Radio: 2.22.27.08 & SPL: 1.33.0013d downloaded (I assume these are the ones I want) and I have backed up my SD card to PC. I figured the process would be the same as flashing the Frosense ROM, enter clockwork mod, hit clockwork recovery, hit "flash alternative recovery", power off, home + power, nand backup, wipe, flash radio, flash SPL, flash Frosense again. However after I "flash alternative recovery" and power off, pressing Home + Power just takes me to the MyTouch screen where it freezes. If I pull battery and power on as usual phone works ok. I decided to try and partition my SD through CWM (wasn't sure if this was necessary) but I'm not sure if the partition worked, phone started to reboot then froze on MyTouch screen again.
I'm assuming I'm doing something incorrectly. Sorry if I seem as "fresh" as I am, but I'm keen to learn and would be appreciative of some easy to understand steps if someone wouldn't mind.
Thanks,
See my guide found in my signature.
Just skip the rooting part if you already rooted.
Flash the recovery and continue with the eng spl.
Once you have the eng spl, you should do the following:
1)Download fastboot commander from my signature and reboot into fastboot
2)Flash the new radio
4)If it goes well, flash the new spl
5)If it goes well, restart into recovery and flash your rom. Remember it must have a compatible kernel.
If any step fails, STOP and post here.

Here is some insight from my recent experience. I am new at this.
Started with:
Sapphire Pvt32 Dev s-on g
Hboot-1.33.3004 (sapp30000)
CPLD-10
Radio-2.22.19.26I
Version 1.5
Stepped to:
Hboot-1.33.3005 Eng
Then installed Amon Ra Recovery
Then BIG Step to:
Sapphire Pvt32 Dev s-on g
Hboot-1.33.3013d
CPLD-10
Radio-2.22.27.08
Version 2.3.5
Keys to success:
1. Get used to searching for what you need then READ as much as you can on Recovery, Radio and SPL(hboot) prior to starting any of the changes.
Especially helpful:

(Magic SPL) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529019
(2708 Radio) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
2. When comfortable with how to set up Android SDK, root, installing custom recovery, fastboot and adb, you are ready to start:
3. Find an Eng S-off SPL(I used 1.33.2005) so you can fastboot flash:
fastboot flash boot [c:/boot.img]
(Magic SPL) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529019
4. Then flash amon ra recovery once then test (press/hold home + power....)
Search in XDA for this thread. fastboot flash recovery [c:/recovery.img]
5. fastboot flash new radio! (I tried using Amon Ra recovery radio.zip to install new radio but it stuck on unbox screen) After 40 min. I freaked out, pulled battery and luckily no damage/brick.
6. adb push your ROM of choice to /sdcard/
I just followed these steps by jeff72k. Note that these instructions are on the G1 forum but G1 is same as HTC Magic/Sapphire 32B. This worked very well especially for step-by-step through the partition setup for Ginger Yoshi which is working GREAT!

thank you so much my friend
i tried to restore my phone with SAPPIMG_Sapphire_TMUS_1.88.531.1_COC10_release_signed
after that i rooted it with flashrec-1.1.3-20091107-2
then i flashed this spl "update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2010-signed"
and flashed Gios_OTA_Froyo-2.0 ROM
it work like charm
but when i started another ROM it stuck again in boot loop
so my friend did you think it will need the spl you told me about "1.33.0013"to get out of boot loop and i think i'll flash the engineering one wright?
i tried to download 1.33.0013 but no luck could you send me the link?
thank you again for your help!
this is the only link i found about 1.33.0013
