Help: Flashed a bad radio and bricked my phone - myTouch 3G, Magic General

SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP50000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-2.22.23.02
I flashed the 2.22.23.02 through fastboot by mistake and now I can't get into recovery mode, or flash any other radios onto the phone. The fastboot menu is the only thing I can get to on the phone.
I tried reflashing the 2.22.23.02 again but it won't go through...
Anyone have any ideas on what I can do to unbrick it?
Edit: Tried sappimg.nbh via volume down and power button but i get a Model ID error. Now i can't fastboot anything over to my phone.
Edit: Flashed the sappimg.nbh, sappimg 2.16.707.3, sappimg 2.53.707.2, via gold card but I now get the error: Main Version is older!

I have answered similar questions before...
Use the search function.
But to get you started here is a quick solution.
1) flash eng spl that starts with 1.33.20XX where XX can be 05,09 or 10.
Restart into fastboot.
2) flash the right spl/radio/recovery combo.
This is confirmed to work....
Next time post ALL fastboot info... there are some info mission in your post!

all the fastboot info...

I have just tried flashing hboot-1.33.2010 via fastboot.
However, I get the error message:
sending 'hboot' (512 KB)... FAILED (remote: not allow)

do this:
----- If you boot into fastboot and have issues with "fastboot:remote not allow", then your SPL won't work. Upgrade to Engineering SPL before continuing.
----- If you do not have an Engineering SPL, download 1.33.2010 and flash through recovery before starting this procedure. Flash the SPL update.zip like any other update.zip file.
in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605239

Unfortunately... I can't boot into recovery either, nor can i push a recovery image to the phone. I get the same error: "fastboot:remote not allow".

ok... you are very limited...
Do this:
Find a suitable sappimg.nbh... Not sappimg.zip...
Use this which i just uploaded for you:
http://rapidshare.com/files/421772202/SAPPIMG.nbh
Using your goldcard flash the sappimg.nbh in fastboot.
The sappimg.nbh does not need any unzipping... it's a complete img of the nand and overwrites everything.

I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere....
is there a way to create a goldcard at this point for me?
I can't get into debug mode on the phone (for obvious reasons) and therefore can't do adb....

Find ANY android device and make a goldcard...
Then use the goldcard on your device...

wouldn't suppose anyone have the goldcard.img from their email that they could send me...

1)Download the -G magic RA recovery
2) rename it to recoveryG.img
3) run 'fastboot boot recoveryG.img' (with the phone in fastboot mode)
4) allow recovery to boot then run the following adb commands
Code:
adb push recoveryG.img /tmp/recoveryG.img
adb flash_image recovery /tmp/recoveryG.img
5) Now power down the phone
6) boot into recovery by holding home+power
10) flash 1.33.2009 or 1.33.2010
Now you will have fastboot again
Most likely you will want to find and flash via fastboot radio 3.22.20.17 if you are not a Rogers/Fido customer or have signed the e911 wavier, otherwise you want 3.22.26.17..
After flashing the 3.x radio flash RA -h recovery via fastboot (and while in fastboot run 'fastboot erase system -w'); this will let you flash the ebi1 rom of choice

I just downloaded the recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
renamed it so recoveryG.img.
When i try to run the command: fastboot boot recoveryG.img
I get the error message:
downloading 'boot.img'...FAILED (remote: not allow)

Then its best to just install the official e911 ruu from rogers and re-root

I have tried that, but it doesn't work...

What's your fastboot info?

Yes, I'm also not sure why people are ignoring that fact that you can't use fastboot either :-S

My bad, using my phone and completely missed the first page.
EDIT: I think mum was on the right track. Your going to need a goldcard. No one will be able to send you their .img because its SD card specific. You don't know anyone with a Android based phone?

Looks like i'm getting progress....?
I have a gold card now thanks to my friend, however...
when I try to flash the SAPPIMG.nbh I get a Main Version is older!
I also tried the 2.53.707.2 SAPPIMG.zip and I still get this error.
I also just tried 2.16.707.3 SAPPIMG.zip and I still get this error.

YOU ARE STILL MAKING THE GOLDCARD THE WRONG WAY...
You should not get that error msg...
Try to remake the goldcard.

Did it on two different SD cards, the same way I did it before to get my phone off perfected SPL... not sure what I could've done to do it wrong this time around.....
a mmc CID can't change right?

As you can see above I have the engineering SPL but I am unable to flash via fastboot gives me the not verified error. I previously was stuck in a reboot loop which I finally got out by creating a goldcard and using 2.53.707.2_-_sappimg.zip. I am able to use the phone but thats about it. There is no access to sd card I have tried numerous cards and they don't work.

I would like to thank anyone in advance for their help. I have searched and been searching the forums for 2 days non-stop usually its stated that you need an Engineering SPL (which I guess I am already using) can't downgrade because I have no access to sdcard either. Please help........
Try going here and grabbing the sappimg from there, load it onto your goldcard, and flash it from hboot the same way you did the first time. There's another guy I was working with on here that tried to use the same engineering SPL and it didn't work, but I don't know if he ever tried that one. The sappimg I'm referring you too is the same one I used when I rooted my phone. Give it a shot and let us know back here.

Im a noob but I just recovered myself from a semi-brick.. What i did was to load the hero recovery back onto the phone via fast boot. flash hboot 1.76.2007 via recovery. Boot back into fastboot.
fastboot flash radio Radio_HTC_PVT_32A_3.22.20.17.img
fastboot flash hboot hboot-1.33.2005.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader
check that you are running hboot 1.33.2005 radio 3.22.20.17
then flash your rom..
worked for me, maybe it will work for you. good luck

another reason it might not be working is becuz your doing 'fastboot flash flash"
which if correct it should be 'fastboot flash hboot'

Sorry wasn't around. Thank you for responding.
Your right I was not using HBOOT but it didn't make a difference I still get the verification error using fastboot.
As you suggested I should try updating using recovery but like I said the SDcard is not detected. I used the "fastboot -c board_sapphire.disable_sdcard=0 boot recovery...*" and it detected the sd card when I try to update the using the zip file it gets stuck at Opening update package....
Any other options?

[help needed]HTC magic PVT 32A: wrong radio (3.22.XX) and SPL (1.76.0008)

The whole story is a little bit long.
I still can access to fastboot. On the RUU screen, I can read the following information:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.76.0008(SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.20.17
Nov 3 2009, 15:56:29
Here is how it happened. I flashed the radio to 3.22 and run a wrong RUU file (RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_3.05.401.1_test_signed_NoDriver.exe). The problem comes: after unsuccessfully flash the RUU file (as the radio in the RUU is 6.35), the security is turned ON (S-ON). Those RUU files with radio 3.22.XX have different version of SPL from 1.76.XXX. I cannot find a RUU file with SPL 1.76.008 and radio 3.22.XX. Therefore, I cannot use any RUU file to change the situation (I got a goldcard).
The security is turned on and I cannot change the radio, SPL or recovery in fastboot (cannot pass the infoSignature checking).
Now I still can access to fastboot (such as fastboot devices).
I don't know why I cannot use fastboot to boot a recovery (fastboot boot recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H.img). I was able to send the recovery img to the device. But the booting of recovery takes for ever.
I can only enter fastboot mode now using any combination of buttons.
Please give your comment and help to solve this.
Thank you very much!

Many of this was answered, search the forum.
Here is the thing you have wrong spl radio combination,you have perfected spl. You can do a fastboot boot xxxxxx.img and enter recovery. Then you must flash eng spl 1.33.2010.And you will be unbricked
Thank you for the reply.
I tried fastboot recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H.img. But after the sending of the image is over, it will stay in booting for ever. I don't understand why I cannot boot the recovery.

Hmm did you try the sappimg.nbh to restore your magic???
Updated: I tried to use sappimg.nbh in fastboot mode. However, it responses that the main version is older. This is because I have run the RUU (RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_3.05.401.1_test_signed_No Driver.exe), whose main version is 3.05 while the sappimg.nbh is older than this number.
Now I can access fastboot and the hboot, but not the recovery. Of course, I cannot boot the android OS either. Is there a method to root just in the fastboot mode? I have the security turned on (S-ON)?
Anyone got suggestion? Thanks!
Can anyone help on this? really get frustrated

You need to create a goldcard www.theunlockr.com at How to's and then use sappimg.nbh

What a bad news =( I had sent this phone to repair, but all of their experts cannot fix as well.
That's lame.... did you try the unroot process?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
You could try unbricking by flashing the Rogers or Brazilian Android 2.1 RUU. The main version is newer and a goldcard should make it work.
Please make sure your battery is full and that you have a PROPER GOLDCARD!!! Otherwise this will most likely fail.
I've uploaded the sappimg to http://www.multiupload.com/WO0S35S53S
Rename it to sappimg.zip, copy it to the root of your SD card and boot into fastboot (vol-down and power). That SHOULD fix your phone. Then again, it could also brick it even worse, but what do you have left to lose?
After loaded sappimg, it checking sappimg, then went back to HBOOT. Nothing happened. I've tried to recreate my gold card, no luck with it =(

HTC Magic 32B, unable to boot or flash from fastboot

I tried to upgrade my Radio with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9055790&postcount=1
Now (after 6 hours) I'm frustrated and I dont know what to do.

I can enter fastboot, but I'm not able to boot into the recovery. Also I'm not able to flash a new recovery, radio, hboot, boot, system or userdata.
If i try to flash something:
"INFOsignatur checking... FAILED (remote: signatur verify fail)"
If i try to boot into recovery:
"downloading 'boot.img' ... OKAY [1.703s]
booting...."
but nothing happens.
If i try to flash SAPPIMG.nbh it stucks on flashing radio.
Im really really frustrated and I hope someone can help me.
I've never seen that radio before. What I can tell you is that your going to have to downgrade using the goldcard method. You'll have to borrow a friends Android phone to make the goldcard. I'm sure by the time you get it made someone will be able to give more in depth directions or I'll be back in front of a computer.

I have created a Goldcard, but with a CID from a German forum, because non of my friends have a Android Phone
I tried to orange-1.58.73.2.nbh and sappimg.nbh from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9055790&postcount=1 but nothing works. Both stuck on "INFOstart image[radio] flushing ..."
You can't use the CID from another user. The CID is unique to the SD card, you need the CID for the SD card your using.

Try putting the sappimg.nbh on your sdcard and then holding down the volume down + the power button and it should ask you to install and just press the scroll ball and it should fix your problem.
No its Bricked ;-)
But i found someone with an JTAG Interface.
Plz close
i am having similar trouble after:
* Format the Micro SD Card to FAT32.
* Copy the SAPPIMG.nbh file to the Micro SD Card.
* With the phone off, hold volume down and press power to boot into the bootloader.
* Once the bootloader is loaded, press power to install.
* Press the trackball to continue and press talk+menu+power to reboot.
I get:

I also have a magic (32B) and with the 1.33.0013d SPL I had a similar problem.
You need to read the first message of the 2708+ thread to the end to read how to flash to an old SPL (but you found that already).
I can only guess why you should try a G1 SPL or an 32A SPL on your phone since it seems like a recipe to brick the device. I reverted back to the SPL available from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529019
Since I had previous experience with the 2005 engineering-version I went for that one.
Did you also try to 2708+ to upgrade to Gingerbread?
All you did was correct but as DonJuan692006 said, you need a goldcard.
If you are running ubuntu you'll find a very simple tutorial (but in french) looking for didier.misson.net and golcard with google.
Good luck.

[Q] Magic - Fastboot: FAILED (remote: not allowed)

Hi there,
I'd like to update to a newer Android Version. So as I read I have to flash a new recovery first. I tried to create a gold card in order to flash this new recovery but I still get an error when I use fastboot.
I read several tutorials and threads in this forum but i couldn't find the right answer. I hope someone can help me.
Is there a problem with a "ScanDisk" gold card...?

You said you have a Goldcard already, right?
Also, only do this if your Magic is a 32B. If it's a 32A, you're bricked for life (and I'm not responsible). It says on the fastboot screen which you are.
If it is a 32B, get the first download from the NBH/ZIP section of this thread <a href=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548218>here</a> (Make sure to read the warnings at the top) and put it on your normal SD card.
Then, boot into HBOOT mode by either
1. Booting into Fastboot mode and pushing volume down.
2. Booting phone with volume down pressed.
It should find the sappimg after a minute. If not, make sure the sappimg is on the SD card not in any folders and also that it's named SAPPIMG.zip.
Choose yes to all the questions. If it has an error, reboot and try again or try it on a Goldcard.
Now fastboot should work and you can do whatever.

1.33.0013 is perfected SPL, remote commands are disabled in this hboot.
If you have custom recovery (AmonRa or Clockworkmod), then you are lucky.
If not, then you must install official ROM: 3.12.531.1 T-Mobile USA FRG83D
http://www.4shared.com/file/j64ygA9t/RUU_Sapphire_T-Mobile_US_31253.html
After that, you can root phone with SuperOneClick, then install custom recovery, and custom rom (via custom recovery)
I already rooted using superone click but my phone wont boot after I tried to flash a rom how do I get it to boot up and work again I'm freaking out oh an I have clockwork recorvery image that's how I tried to flash the rom but i dont have a goldcard can i still use the same method can u give me a walk through or is there a way using clockwork mod

If you have custom recovery - just flash custom rom via it.
P.s. but choose appropriate rom (with tags 32b)

Goldcard will only help if your error is related to the CID. If you have a branded phone (Rogers, for example) and you want to flash a ROM that is only meant for a different carrier (Vodafone, for example), the goldcard overrides the CID check and continues the process.
A checksum error could mean that the file has been altered.
Could you tell us exactly what information you see on your phone's FASTBOOT page? Model, HBOOT version, RADIO, S-ON/S-OFF, etc.
Thanks.

Okay, there at two issues to deal with first. You have a perfected SPL, 1.33.0014, and you are S-ON. The perfected SPL means that fastboot is crippled and won't let you do most things, and S-ON means it will only let you flash signed images.
***
*** This is one way to fix things, but I'm sure someone knows a better way. If someone knows a better way, please post ***
***
The first step is to unlock the bootloader. This will at least let you flash a custom recovery.
Go to HTC Dev and make an account. Once you've logged in, click on "Unlock Bootloader", then the "Get Started" button. You should be able to skip the RUU installation step, but, if you must do it, the file you want is at this link: SAPP10000 hboot 1.33.0014G. Follow the steps, send your ID token, receive the Unlock_code.bin, and flash it.
Once all of that is done, the bootloader should be unlocked (but still S-ON). You should now be able to flash a custom recovery using this guide: RA sapphire recovery. Scroll down to where it says "via fastboot". It says that is requires an ENG spl, but the unlocked bootloader should be enough. The file you want is: recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
If you get into the custom recovery alright, you can try updating to an engineering SPL using a signed zip file. Go to this thread and download "roottools". Open it up and get "hboot_2010_signed.zip". Put it in the root (not in a folder) of an sdcard, put the sdcard into your phone and boot into recovery. Look for an option to install a zip file from your sdcard.
If that doesn't work, try renaming the hboot_2010_signed.zip to SAPPIMG.zip, put it on the sdcard and boot into HBOOT mode (Volume Down + Power). It will scan the sdcard and try to install SAPPIMG.zip.
If all of that goes well, let us know.
1. i already go to htcdev used the 1.33.0014 spl and unlocked it. It says "*** UNLOCKED***"
2. i don't recovery, only fastboot
3. tried goldcard with sandisk and no sucess!

But did you actually try to flash a recovery image from fastboot?
Download this image: AmonRA 1.7.0G Recovery image
Put your phone into fastboot USB
Open a Command Prompt, cd to the recovery-RA-blahblah.img location, then type this:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
Let us know if that works.
impossible, when i send a command, i receive a error message "remote: not allow"

i receive a error message "remote: not allow"

Hmmm. Are you able to enter HBOOT mode? Turn the phone completely off (or pull the battery), then hold VOLUME DOWN and POWER until it says HBOOT.
Yes, i can enter hboot and fastboot

Alright. We can try downgrading with the RUU for your phone and a goldcard. Download the RUU exe file, run it, but don't use it to install. While it's open, go into C:\ Users \ Whateveryourusernameis \ AppData (may be hidden) \ Local \ Temp \ then look for the 2 newest folders in Temp. One of them will contain "dotnetinstaller.exe" and another folder. Go into the other folder and you'll find "rom.nbh".
Run: fastboot flash nbh rom.nbh
If it still doesn't work, try it in RUU mode: fastboot oem rebootRUU (and then use fastboot flash nbh rom.nbh)
If THAT doesn't work, put the rom.nbh on the root directory of your goldcard, rename it SAPPIMG.nbh, and boot into HBOOT mode. It should be autodetected.

BTW, if it gives you a "main version is older" error, we can fix that.
as soon i tested all the ways, i'll report to you! BIG THANKS to you! cheers!
Let's catch up: i have an sapphire 32B S-ON G, spl 1.33.0014 unlocked, radio 2.22.19.23
1. when i run RUU i get error "bootloader version"
2. all the things i do with fastboot, receive error "remote: not allow"
2.1 when use fastboot oem rebootRUU and then use fastboot flash nbh rom.nbh, received error "Failed (remote: 43 main version check fail)"
3. using sdcard SAPPIMG.nbh (from RUU):
3.1 Non goldcard: transcend 8GB "Main Version is older!"
3.2 Goldcard: kingston 4GB "Main Version is older!"
---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 PM ----------
is there any tool to edit the edit NBH file and "fool" the phone?
I'll need to buy a 2gb kingston sdcard?
can i flash ruu hboot 1.76.0013 and try all the process?
