HELP NEEDED Rogers Htc Magic bricked? - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hi guys, I did something stupid. Trying to get cyanogen mod on a phone with 6.xx radio. I downgraded the radio to a version 3 radio and failed too boot or load amon recovery (due to an spl radio mismatch). After trying to flash a 6.xx radio through fast boot (which crashed everytime). I tried flashing the rogers RUU update again (stupid!). While flashing the radio portion of the ruu update, the device crashed again. This time however, I can't use fastboot commands, because the stupid rogers ruu installed perfected spl again. All I can do now is flash signed RUUs, which crash while flashing the radio. Is there anything I can do to fix this device? Thanks very much in advance.
Nick.

Hello
Thread moved to specific device section
I think you'll benefit more from the members over there

I'm in the same boat. Phone is stuck at the RUU screen. When I run any of the RUU updates they all fail during the radio flash.

Damn, I hate members like you.
a) You don't even tell us what you did wrong
b) What does this have ANYTHING TO DO TO BELONG IN THE MAGIC DEVELOPMENT?
I am sorry that I did not mention the whole story.
Where should I post this message to? myTouch 3G, Magic General?
I am using "Super-Hero (Build By AhmgskMod)" before came into this situation, I found that the phone can boot, and looping in the htc Magic screen.
Show I tried to wipe and flash the rom again. I flashed the rom for 5-6 times, but it still won't boot..
At the last one I tried to flash another rom from XDA, I found the sdcard can't mount in recovery mode. And I go to fastboot mode, S-ON is observed.
I flash my phone with sappimg.zip in hboot mode (Sdcard file can be loaded). Now I am with the rom in (RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_304401), but the sdcard is not mounted after I boot up my phone.
I believe that this issue is due to the S-ON hboot, I am finding some way to flash the hboot again (I tried -- fastboot NOT OK, recovery can't mount sd)
Seek for help. Thank you very much.

u still hav hero recovery??? ( custom recovery)
Yes, I have the hero recovery (custom), I flash in by boot the hero recovery in fastboot, and flash using:
adb push recovery.img /
adb shell flash_image recovery /recovery.img
The problem is I cannot access to sdcard in recovery mode, also can't use the sdcard when I boot up the phone.
Updated: I copy the rom.zip and rom1.zip from RUU update. The rom.zip container radio and hboot. Should I flash the rom.zip in hboot, to recovery the radio and hboot?
s-on + no sd card.
This problem seems to be experienced by many people in the process of upgrading to the new radio. I have experienced it myself and i never managed to solve it. Luckily i manafed to get a replacement phone. I am still afraid of upgrading the radio on my new device in fact. I think that this seems to be a common problem which deserves to be given more attention by the devs. I. Believe there were a couple of people on the forum who managed to fix it but they are few and far between.
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
There's been quite a few SD card problem forum threads. Try harder next time.
xaueious, Thank you very much! Now I can access the sdcard! I will try harder to search in forum before asking question next time.
And thank you for the support of everyone in this post too.
This command was not recognized by the phone in my case. It's not always that simple to solve. It would be better to know what causes it in the first place so that people can avoid it.

Now I can use the rom in (RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_304401), I use hboot mode and flash the rom1.zip from the captioned rom (renamed to sappimg.zip)
But I can't start any custom rom for new radio from XDA here (installed in recovery mode, update from zip). It just stuck at the htc Magic screen, can't boot into phone.
My SPL/Hboot is still 1.76.2007 S-ON. I have tried flash the "update-hboot-1762007-signed.zip" in recovery mode, but the Hboot is still S-ON.
I believe the problem is due to the S-ON Hboot, so I can't start any custom rom. Any way I can turn the Hboot to S-OFF?
Thank you!
Update to Amon_RA's newest hero recovery. You should be able to mount your SD card in that.
Thank you sindrefyrn. I updated to the latest RA hero recovery.
I can mount sdcard with hero recovery 1.5.3.1 too.
But problem is I can't boot my phone with custom rom, only stock rom will work.
My ENG SPL 1.76.2007 is S-ON instead of S-OFF.
I will tried to flash the RUU update to replace my existing radio and SPL tomorrow, my home PC using win7 and can't verify my phone while RUU update, I will tried it tomorrow in office with winXP.
Hope it works, will report here.

You can flash a RUU with higher manversion then your previous ROM.
I often find that when I go into recovery my sdcard is not mounted. The solution (for me) is to:
adb shell
mount /sdcard
exit
And that's it.
No idea why the sdcard is mounted sometimes but not other times though

Is that mean I can't downgrade my SPL and radio?
I can't use fastboot to flash my SPL and radio, because S-ON SPL not allow me to do so.
Could I copy the rom.zip from RUU which contain SPL and radio, then renamed it to sappimg.zip and flash in Hboot mode?
The only thing I want to do is change my SPL back to S-OFF. What can I do?
Thank you for your help.
update: Is there any SPL.zip I can use to flash my SPL in recovery mode?
update 2: I tried flash the ENG SPL 2007.zip in recovery mode, but it can't change my SPL back to S-OFF. Is it because the SPL are in same version, so, I am not upgrading my SPL by this action?

No reason you can't downgrade your SPL and radio that way, as long as the mainver of the RUU you're flashing is newer than your current.

Yes, that's possible. However, the mainver still needs to be higher than your current.

That only works with the 1.76.xxxx SPL, which he has.
From personal experience, I can tell you that I screwed my phone up by flashing hboot and radio in the wrong order.. Ultimately, it prevented me from flashing the Hero recovery... So basically, I was stuck with new SPL/Radio with Sapphire recovery for a while. But here is where things got worst: I attempted to flash BACK to the OLD SPL/Radio, which worked. However, somewhere along the way enableqxdm(1.76.x only) was turned ON, and stayed on. The only thing I was able to do was go back to the stock Rogers RUU (old radio), but left with no SD card which really sucks. When Sense was released for Rogers, I flashed the new ROM and Radio (via USB) and turned enableqxdm off. All fixed at the cost of being rooted
littlestrong; which ROMs are you trying to flash? There could be a really simple explanation as to why they don't work.
1. Did you WIPE data/dalvik/ext before flashing? <- this is pretty important
2. Flash a ROM specific to the new radio?
And if you're trying to reflash your radio and SPL, what errors do you get?
sindrefyrn:
I have tried update your SPL 1.76.2007 from recovery. It remain S-ON afterward.
So, I downgrade my SPL to 1.76.0007 and raido 6.35.07.xx from HK stock sense rom (Hboot mode -> sappimg.zip). The SPL and radio are successful downgraded. Then, I flash the SPL the 1.76.2007 in recovery. No luck.. SPL has been upgraded to 1.76.2007, but it is still S-ON..
pyee0124:
I flash all roms below with full wipe (all 5 wipes in recovery), they all are for new radio:
--[ROM][32A][6.35] SenseUI 2.1 based on DROID Eris dump. Both v01 and v02.
--Super-Hero (Build By AhmgskMod) [Based On Eris Dump].
--Eclair AME [Android 2.1] MADE BY ME [Only For New Radio] [28th Feb]
I also restore a nandroid backup which it was backup with Eclair AME rom, when my phone in good condition.
All the above roms can't boot up, all stop at htc Magic screen..
I search this forum and found 2 topics about making ENG SPL to S-OFF from S-ON.
1. Flash the nandroid backup boot.img file to the phone, might be one of them will make the SPL to be S-OFF.
2. Remove the battery for a couple of day, and leave the phone as it is .The phone might change to S-OFF itself.
Another problem, I can't flash my magic in RUU. ERROR 170 was found both in XP and win7. I tested it in computer with and without htc sync. I have install proper driver.
I have one more question, I can flash custom rom for new radio here in recovery mode. But all 3 roms I had tried won't boot up and stuck in htc Magic screen. Can anyone flash custom rom with S-ON SPL and found no problem in boot??
You should still be able to flash custom ROMS regardless of S-ON. One of the other things you should try is formatting your SD card again.. Try a full FAT32, then try partitioning afterwards. I found that I could only boot Ahmgsk with FAT32/Swap/Ext2.
pyee0124: I have flashed the [ROM][32A] CursorSense32A-1.2.6.1, it can boot up with my S-ON SPL.
I will test flashing others rom and see if I can use Android 2.1.

please help!! mytouch 1.2 flashed wrong spl and radio- stuck at splash image

i accidently flashed a spl and radio for a hero on my mytouch1.2 and now it wont let me do anything, i still can acces the booloader wit the android with skateboards but cant recover using goldcard, it says wrong id model update failed. I also tried recovering it with cmd but its says failed remote not allow, im i totally briked??
Please help, i been hours on the computer trying to figure out this problem
you should be about to flash radio and hboot by using fastboot if you can goto bootloader
what you need is the correct version of hboot and radio together with the right cooked ROM to get your magic work

[Request] Old Radio to flash on recovery zip

Hello everyone. I'm in need of a radio zip for a phone where i cannot use fastboot procedure but i can use a recovery. I cannot find on google a signed ready for recovery flash system a zip wich contains 3.22.23.18 radio. Can anyone provide? Thank you very much
just curious - why can't you use fastboot? It's a lot safer to flash radio in fastboot, so why don't you just flash an engineering SPL first?
it was done the update to the new radio, and it has nand locked (writte protected) as many of you already know about it , So even after installing a SPL ENG, it continues to be SIG ON. It is needed a radio so that i can flash it on the recovery Thats why i cant use fastboot on that phone.
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general
I've heard the command to unlock (S-OFF) the SPL 1.76.2007 is
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
never had to use it myself though.
I think downgrading to old radio and spl in this situation may prove to be a very bad idea - it probably can't be done safely from recovery, and even if you manage to do it without bricking, you may still have S-ON in fastboot (and the old-radio compatible SPL doesn't support the oem command above IIRC).
that comand worked only to reactivate SD card. not of turning SIG OFF. I tried but didnt work.
Damn, then that makes it yet another issue which nobody has solved though many claim it is solved, and some even claim it doesn't exist at all. Like the issue of GPS not working on old-radio custom roms.
hehehe but it exists. IT is on 4 people wich i've identified in portuguese handcets.

Ok... kinda stuck in vodafone limbo [myTouch 3g w/ headphone jack]

Alright, newb here.
Now that that is out of the way, let me get to the issue.
History: I was following a howto on theunlockr.com (or however it's spelled) for rooting my myTouch 3g w/ 3.5mm headphone jack. Created goldcard, put sappimg on it, booted phone into bootloader, nothing, didn't recognize the image file. Thinking that the file was bad, I downloaded another sappimg.zip file (which I realize now was a bad mistake). After realizing that the card needed to be empty (no files other than sappimg.zip), put JUST sappimg.zip on goldcard and it worked. It uploaded the zip to memory and flashed. Then it rebooted and was stuck at a Vodafone logo. No bootup, just hangs at logo (I've left it at that for a good 10 minutes, still nothing). I can't flash from fastboot, as the SPL does signature checking. I've tried fastbooting into a recovery image, but the four I've tried so far, won't get past the three droids skating logo (and that's if I use fastboot to erase system, boot, userdata, and cache, otherwise, they'll hang at the Vodafone logo too). I've also wiped every partition on the flash other than the bootloader.
Yesterday, I've even tried to run a couple of RUU's for the thing. I had a friend try all three T-Mobile RUU's for the myTouch (from the "[ROM] Official HTC Sapphire/Magic/MT3G RUU ROM Links" thread), all failed with some version (Different failures for each though).
Oh, also, I can't do the goldcard trick anymore, because when it tries to flash the rom, the SPL hangs on the system partition.
So, gentlemen, I do believe I'm screwed.
Any help towards getting it unscrewed (even back to stock) would be greatly appreciated.

I also have a MT3G 1.2 with the symptoms you describe - hangs on unzipping the system image in sappimg.zip (2.10.531.3) and (2.10.531.4). Don't even think about trying to flash sappimg.nbh (1.94.531.1) - that got me a brick semi-recoverable via JTAG.
I have also seen the Fail-PU message appear when it tries to flash the system partition (when radio 2.22.23.02 was installed).
I found that you can successfully flash sappimg.zip (2.53.707.2 including eng spl 1.33.2010), but fastboot is useless since you get the (remote: signature verify fail) message. Needless to say, this rom doesn't boot successfully.
In addition to the symptoms you describe, the USB is also broken on my MT3G 1.2, so I would need a solution that doesn't use fastboot.
Has anybody else experienced this problem or something similar with their MT3G 1.2? I would like to collect as much information as I can about this problem. I have so far been unsuccessful in finding a solution
I have working JTAG on my MT3G 1.2, so I can easily softboot any SPL. See wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=JTAG_for_Dream/Magic for more details.
I had an idea to edit the SPL so that it skips the signature check on any sappimg.zip file you give it, and easily flash a custom sappimg.zip. Another idea I had was to get it to skip checking the main version on any sappimg.zip file you give it.
Does anybody have any ARMv6 (ARM11) disassembly experience? I could only ever get arm-none-eabi-objdump to disassemble the SPL as a ARMv5 binary...
Does anybody have any idea what I'm talking about? Am I crazy?

It may be an old post, but I'm still having the problem I described above
My phone is sitting right here collecting dust, JTAG still hooked up and everything.
jonk26.2, I got your PM. I'm interested.
I just need to get a working openocd installation up and running again - shouldn't take too long.
EDIT: I mean I'm interested in trying your ideas. No need to send me a phone.
Let me tell you where I am and what I am thinking.
I bought a 3.5mm phone on ebay that had this issue...stuck on fastboot screen. I could get into USB fastboot just fine...and could try the goldcard root process just fine...but had the same freeze on unzipping files that everybody else had. I had the brilliant idea that I could use fastboot to erase the bad files so it could unzip files...and in my haste I erased EVERYTHING...no fastboot no nothing...dead. Then I started looking around the site for JTAG and found your post and then I thought...maybe this is the way to start...absolutely wipe the slate clean and start over.
Anyway...my mobo is dead on this phone and I would like to try to fix it if you are game.

If you erased the radio, then I'm afraid that even the current JTAG procedure won't help you much... Try seeing if blue LED light mode works - if it does, then you might still have hope. This is discussed in the JTAG thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591048 and also at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=JTAG_for_Dream/Magic
I know the JTAG thread can be a bear to sift through, but it has a lot of good information, including what kind of equipment they use (I'm using a Stellaris EKC-LM3S6965 eval kit which doubles as a USB-serial adapter if you program it right).
Remember that the MT3G 1.2 3.5mm jack / Fender LE won't boot anything without the stock SPL and a known compatible radio (2.22.23.02 is one).
Yes...Blue LED...nothing else.

Then in theory un-bricking is possible via jtag and serial cable.
I'm not sure about this, but if your phone is in a condition like mine, then JTAG may only be able to bring it back to the limbo state we've been seeing. Symptoms of this are: 1. seeing something like fastboot remote signature verify fail when fastboot worked (even with an engineering SPL) and 2. stuck at unzipping the system image or getting Fail-PU when installing a sappimg.zip. And as far as I know this only applies to the MT3G 1.2 3.5mm jack.
Wow...
Haven't been on in a while and I come back and see that the thread did blossom into a full discussion. Nice. Sorry to leave y'all out in the dark for so long, but I've been busy (and distracted).
So, my solution was to get it replaced. Cheap, I know, but something had to be done. So, I got another MyTouch 3G and when I was feeling brave again, I tried a different route and went with Universal Androot to root the stock ROM in place and use ClockworkMod to flash CM6 onto the device. Awesome, it worked. So we (me and the girlfriend) enjoyed our MyTouch's until we got fed up with T-Mobile's service (crappy signal, where I live). Switched to AT&T and got a HTC Aria, which I suppose is the MyTouch's cousin.
I feel hopeless
I am also suffering the same problem.
I can access fastboot but I can do nothing [Perfect SPL].
I have created a working gold card but all I'm seeing is the frozen system extraction.
tried almost any possible howto's I can find on the net but to no avail.
due to my experiment on flashing sappimg.zip, I seem have a mutated radio/spl combo!

I have tried every combination of firmwares known to man. I have got several to begin flashing, but all stick on the unzipping system. I messed it up by originally following another post for rooting the phone and didnt realize that this my touch 1.2 is special. Apparently the firmware I flashed it with is a 32A firmware and the spl and radio are no good for this phone. So now nothing will flash. Probably have to Jtag it...

http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/11/how-to-root-the-mytouch-1-2-and-fender-mytouch/
and installed the sappimg.zip with (eng spl 2010). Then eng spl 2010 flashed sappimg.zip (T-Mobile_US_2.10.531.4) and stuck at unzipping the system image. [However, it was worked at the very beginning when the MT3G 1.2 with froyo,~~~ Wrong! I didn't use the SAPPIMG with eng spl 2010 at that time, and I only used the universal androot to root the phone~~~ and before I bricked the phone when I used RUU to downgraded it back to Donut.~~This is true. ]
This can explain why I can flash sappimg.zip (T-Mobile_US_2.10.531.4) on SD card through hboot (stock 1.33.0013G) successfully at first place. So the sappimg.zip with (eng spl 2010) is halmful, because it updates the main version.
When I rebooted the system and used the stock spl 1.33.0013G to reflash (T-Mobile_US_2.10.531.4), I have the "main version is older" error.
It looks like each time it becomes worse, there are some kind of watchdog programs in the system?
Because of the hybrid nature of the MT3G 1.2 (32A hardware/32B ROM), the partitions probably messed up, because I saw "partition update failed".
I just cannot repeat the process, when I jtag the phone,
I also saw
[ERR] partition_read::Failed to read page 19072 or it is empty, when soft boot the system as

ok bro, I wish you luck on unbricking your phone, let us know if you succeeded!
Can any one help me check the main version of the original MT3G 1.2 before using the SAPPIMG.ZIP with eng spl 2010 (main version 2.53.707.2)?
fastboot getvar version-main
Even after I flashed back to T-Mobile_US_2.10.531.4 (stopped at system), the main version is still 2.53.707.2. I think the main version of T-Mobile_US_2.10.531.4
is 2.10.531.4. So the SAPPIMG.ZIP with eng spl 2010 (main version 2.53.707.2) is potentially harmful at least for some MT3G 1.2.
