I think my ROM problems must be related to the SPL I am using (since I have tried everything else, but cant boot into ANY ROM past the splashscreen even though recovery and fastbot work fine.)
Which SPL should I be using with an HTC magic that I think is 32b
I currently have the one linked to in the SPL thread that looks like this:
Engineering SPL 1.33.2005 - MD5 : 2B1AAA9012DC28F88C482E1B21A46FDD

How long do you let the phone sit at the splash screen before you give up on it? Anytime I've flashed a ROM I've had to wait around 5 minutes for it to fully boot up the first time. Outside of that, you may be flashing the wrong ROMs. Which one's have you tried?

I give it 10-20 minutes every time.
I have tried 4 different ROM's, all from cyanogen (6.0.0 RC3, 5.08, 5.07, 4.2?)

Ok... you just costed me 1.5 hours of research.
You have 32B board which means that you should use 32B roms.
BUT, you have H-tag version and 3.22 radio. All 32B devices is G-tag version.
So i was confused... but i got it finally.
This is what you have to do:
Using your current spl and radio you can only use 32A roms. I know that you have 32B board but the H-tag makes it an EBI1 device and therefore you need 32A roms.
Or you can change you radio to the G version which is 2.22.19.261.
You also have to change recovery to G version or you cannot boot recovery correct.
Using the 2.22 radio you then have to use 32B roms.
CAN ANYBODY CONFIRM MY LOGIC?
ezterry CAN YOU CONFIRM?
So it's up to you...
So the question is, which roms have you tested.. 32A or 32B roms?
And did you do a full wipe + deleted all unnecessary files/folders on the sdcard before you booted the rom?

There is your problem... :0)
You need 32A roms with the current spl/radio combination you have on your device :0)
Test one... like the froyoredux:

And as you have done before...full wipe :0)
PS. Please report back on success or failure.

IT [email protected]! Thank you SO SO MUCH! (For reference, I followed the link given and downloaded 32a black 1.8)
I don't understand how I ended up needing a 32A kernel when I have the 32B phone - I must have messed something up earlier, but it doesn't matter to me all that much - as long as this keeps functioning!
You did not mess anything up.
Your device is a 32B board but has the H-tag (The last H in the first line of the fastboot. H stands for HTC-version.. G stands for Google-version).
If you want to use 32B roms you just need to flash a different radio and recovery (as stated above) and you should be good to go.
But imho there is more 32A roms then 32B roms.. so just stay with current spl/radio combination!
But beware... since you have 32B you cannot flash the 6.35 radio... thats only for the 32A boards...
With other words:
SPL -> 1.33.20xx, where xx can be 05, 09 or 10 (just stay with the one you have now... no reason to change)
if using 3.22 radio -> must have H recovery and use 32A roms
if using 2.22 radio -> must have G recovery and use 32B roms

Is the H-tag the same thing as an H recovery? If not, where does that H-tag come into play? I ask because I was having frequent crashes associated with using the radio, so I thought maybe I should go back to the 32B radio. I did so, and tried to go back to a 32b recovery at the same time. Amon Ra's 1.7 is running for me for the first time, but the "H" is still showing in fastboot:

I am next going to try installing a G rom from sdcard. Am I on the right track?
yes you are on the right track.
The H will never change...
Isn't the 32B version slower than the one with 32A?

I'm not even sure 's-on' and 's-off' means...
If there's any radio, or SPL i need to update.. please let me know.
Thank you.
You have the Engineering SPL already flashed is all.
Here's a thread on the various SPLs.

Thank you.
Then how come I am bound to the rogers phone compatibility?
Rom for rogers HTC Magic phone
Above roms works for me, but
CyanogenMod v4.0.4
doesn't work for me.
Does it have to do with SPL version? or phone itself?
Thanks.
Also, why is mine 'Unkwown' not 'PVT'?

You need to use ROMs for a 32A board, the second ROM your trying to install is for the G1.

So i've progressed ^^
I think i've to flash my radio with a 32B radio (by the 32A recovery) and after install a 32B Rom with the 32B recovery.
Is this correct?
Where can i found a 32B Radio working well?
Thanks a lot for answers
be careful
Hi
be careful what you do because i bricked my 32B by flashing a 32B Radio 2.xx now i cant go to fastboot and Hboot anymore!
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general
Today I found that my Magics CPLD value is 10 (CPLD-10), and I can not flash other versions of Sense UI with 6.35.*.* of radio. Does anyone know how to change the value from 10 to 12.
My HTC Magic details:

Get you self custom recovery using the radio-switcher-tool in my signature. (If you not already have it!). Just push "flash new" when using the tool.
Then flash this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778083
It's a modified stock 2.1 with sense.
You cannot change the CPLD.
In others words, you are attacking the wrong problem!
CPLD-10 is the MyTouch 3G / Magic 32B. Flashing the new radio and SPL will most likely brick your phone.
CPLD is sort of a hardware ID, you can't change it.

Well i just used the info he provided...
Keinengel, are you 100% sure about your facts?
If so, how come arxlex has different fastboot info?
Pretty sure
From what I've gathered on this forum, CPLD-10 is 32B, CPLD-12 is 32A and CPLD-13 is MyTouch 1.2/Fender. The only other time I saw CPLD-10 and PVT-32A on the same screen was when someone ran a 32A RUU on a 32B with a goldcard in it.
mumilover,
Thanks, but I already have a recovery 1.6.2. And I already maked flash device RCMagic ROM, but after flashing the firmware does not want work sensor, all sensor area decreased by 1/3 of screen.
See screenshots
Have you ever used a goldcard before?
Maybe thats why everything is not working correct.
Using what Keinengel sayed, you might have wrong spl/radio combo which again is effecting your system...
If you have used goldcard before, then maybe you should revert back to 32B combo.
Using spl 1.33.2005 and 2.22 radio. Then flashing 32B rom like the CM 6.

Read carefully!
T-Mobile MyTouch 3G version 1.2 (with 3.5" audiojack) IS NOT Magic 32A
Use only manuals with tag [MT3G 1.2]
ya even though it says 32a we are not, we use the 2.xx radio but lots of roms available since the g1 is a 32b
I'm surprised you haven't bricked your phone.

Oh man you have no idea, I almost did! Flashed 6.35 and new spl and my mytouch wouldn't boot! Luckily i had created a gold card!

Yes, the 1.2 is a hybrid but it's really a 32b board at heart.

Yeah! I thought i had bricked for a second, what i did is i tried downgrade from 6.35 and 1.76 spl with goldcard and what happened is that i wouldnt load the goldcard. So what i did i downgraded to 3.22.XX.XXX and 1.33.2010 SPL using the tut i had explained in the begining of this thread. After i downgraded my 32A Sapphire turned into a Sapphire 32B, then i used the goldcard with 3.22 radio and 1.33 spl which worked and i got out from a brick!

i know it says 32a but when i first flashed a 32a rom it wouldnt do anything. I can flash g1 rom all day long though.
So what would be the latest radio for my device?

Just stick with your 2.22.23.02 radio. Your device is a 32A but more of a 32B. Let me explain... the only thing that's a 32A is your memory. HOWEVER if you have a custom rom built for 32B MyTouch devices then it is not taking advantage of the 288mb of ram so it gets wasted. You need a lot of modification of the kernel to take full advantage of it. So technically... since you are not using all of your ram... you pretty much have a 32B device. It requires 32B radios... 32B kernels... 32B roms. So for the most part anything that works on a 32B device should work on your device. With some exception of some roms that have older kernels. In other words... no Hero roms with 1.5 firmware because your touchscreen and headphone jack may not work.
Just stick with your existing radio because it's a mild inconvenience to change radios anyway because you have a protected SPL and even if you did manage to flash a newer radio... odds are you won't notice any difference anyway.
thanks for the reply and for the explaination on the whole 32a 32b stuff good to know
thanks
