Hello everyone,
I have an old 32A Sapphire that I bought in Canada on rogers network when it first came out. I had rooted it and put custom recovery and roms on it but when rogers put out the manditory update I got them to send me a replacement and just put my rooted magic to the side. It's been quite a while since I've tried to mess around with it and see that a few things have changed. I really want to try and get it back on rogers network with root still. I have never done anything more than one-click root flash recovery and put on some basic roms. I am thinking that my radio and spl will have to be updated. Current info is as follow:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP50000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.20.17
Running a couple different roms that can be switched using RAv1.2.1H:
Hero3G UNI
Hofo 221
RA-IONv1.6.2H
I am really just wondering what guides and steps I should follow to get it updated (hopefully to the new rogers 2.1). Any info/links is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Sorry for being a Noob, I have read the Wiki on Ultimate Guide to Hacking your Sapphire Handset and attempted to try to fastboot using RA-sapphire-v1.6.2 but did not manage to get to the screen as shown you thread.
These are the details of my phone and it is bought in Singapore and I recently upgraded to Sense UI. I have seen a couple of threads with others suggesting to create a gold card and others dont need to hence I am a bit confused here.
Is there a thread out there to teach me step by step how to root and upgrade my Rom.
Can you teach me as I have been looking at this forum for a couple of weeks and couldn't find a step by step but and many users seems to experience different problems when hacking it. Seeing my colleague hack his Nexus One I really envy and will like to hack mine as well.
Please help
Thank you in advance

Are you running 1.5 (cupcake) or 1.6 (donut)? You can't push a custom recovery until you downgrade to 1.5. From there you can install flashrec.apk and flash a new recovery. Once you have your new recovery, flash your rom of choice through the recovery.
If you're currently running 1.6, in order to downgrade, you need to find the appropriate SAPPimg.nbh/zip with a non perfected SPL. I believe the SPL you currently have is a perfected SPL which will prevent you from rooting with the one click method. More than likely, you will have to root via the goldcard method, which will require an additional sd card. Preferably a 2 gb kingston micro sd with an adapter to connect to your computer. You can find detailed instructions at the link below. Just read carefully, its really not very complicated if you just follow the instructions step by step and do a little research.

since he don't know how ROOT his phone and he said that upgraded to Sense then it is only logic that he did offical RUU 1.5 SenseUI 1.76 PerfectSPL = no love.
Hi Sombionix and dk75,
I am using 1.5 (cupcake), I did some hunting on myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development forum and there were some threads posted but none of them mention anything about successfully rooting phones with HBOOT -1.76 0007 and successfully installing a new rom.
Is this true that it is not possible? Has anyone done it successfully ?
Please help
Thank you

Can anyone help?
Last year i installed a Hero ROM on my Vodafone HTC Magic with help from this guy: http://www.karrderized.com/romguide/
Everything worked great, except for the fact that it runs really slowly sometimes and takes an age to do anything. I want to return back to the original Magic ROM (or as near as i can get to it) so that it runs faster and responds as it did originally. I have read through loads of forums and the majority say i need to root my Magic first. Because i have already put the Hero ROM on, does that mean the phone is now rooted? I am starting to get lost in all the different reports and would like some clarification on what i need to do, and where i can get a working ROM from. Hopefully the following info will help.

Hello.
I have searched MANY many threads (Google, Cyanogen... here) and I am resorting to anyone who can help. Here is my dilemma:
* I have an original MT3G 32B USB device (not the Fender)
* In prepping for OTA 2.2 update, I unrooted and flashed back to what I thought was MT3G 1.6. Instead, it would appear the SPL is Voda based on the following stats:

I literally have tried everything (flashing different SPLs to update fail errors, used adb to load files to card/rooted/tried to use ClockworkMod/Amon_Ra recovery...in short, just about everything).
The Voda surprisingly works, but it is now an HTC Magic with a 1.5 with no ability to do OTA updates. I am just trying to get back to the T-Mobile stuff so I can do the 2.2 update per instructions in this forum.
Can anybody help guide me as to what I am doing wrong or what to do right? I will even contribute a decent amount via PayPal for a solution that works... if it is against forum rules, mods, I apologize. I don't have anything against Voda... it's just that I goofed and am trying to get some much-needed help from anyone.
In advance, thanks and until a reply...
The journey takes a screeching halt while this weary traveler holds up a "HELP ME" sign.
UPDATE: I think I have officially bricked my device. I downgraded my HBOOT to 1.33.0004 or 5 and downgraded my radio to 2.22.23.02. I allowed it to flash and it restarted to the Voda logo and stood there... unable to go to SPL/fastboot/ClockwordMod. Is this an official brick?
This doesn't really have anything to do with Development.
Moving to General.
Hello all.
A friend of mine has a HTC Magic (the google one) 32b and he wants to root and flash recovery/rom, but he is afraid of bricking the phone because of spl and radio updates.
Can some one point me to some guide, how to root and flash and give some advices?
He also wants to install gingerbread. Is it available?
Thanks in advance
Some additional info:

Hello all
I'm the friend SKL_opt
Can you help me.
I was thinking about doing this process
1) Downgrading to 1.5
(http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=HTC_Magic_(32B):_Rooting)
2) Install this recovery
(forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530492)
3) Install this Rom
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932118)
They think this process is the best for my Magic?
I appreciate the help

This is a request for information not general tutorial.
Hello everyone.
Yesterday I made the case that he had previously said, downgrading to Android 1.5, I installed a new recovery (Amon_Re 1.7.0) and got me here.
Ginger wanted to install the rom Yoshi 1.1, but I noticed that for this rom, I need this 1.33.0013d SPL and RADIO 2.22.28.25 or 27.08.
After making the downgrading, the fastboot got the following data
SAPPHIRE PVT SHIP S-32B ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.19.261
Then and now, is the question I ask? What will be the next step?
Thank you for your help
Just one more question.
Android 1.5 as at this moment, the system says I have two updates to the Android 1.6 and 2.2.1 of Froyo later. If I make any of these facilities, I lose everything I did before, that the recovery entertaining installed (Amon_Re 1.7.0)? Or the recovery keeps unchanged?
Thank you all for the precious help he has given me. They have been great to me.
Not one response from you. Thanks
Hello everyone,
Yoshi already installed. Can lock the topic
Thanks
I recently bought a phone that was modified (rooted and ROM'd)from a friend who is currently vacationing abroad for the summer. Therefore it is very hard to contact him about issues about flashing the phone, etc. SORRY to start a new thread, but I'm a noob and I have been searching and trying many different methods on this and other forums to no positive result, and I need my phone to be functional AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
WHAT I WANT DIRECTIONS TO DO:
- To flash my mytouch 3g back to stock / default OS and settings.
OR
- To flash CM6.1 onto this device

Goto Theunlockr .com and look under the How To's Android section.. you'll find a guide for rooting the MT3G which has a stock sapphire.nbh file that will put you back @ stock 1.6 OS and the phone will eventually get the system updates from your service provider.
Flash CM6.1 Its good rom or flash SMF 1.2 its work great and have android 2.3.3 whit sense 2.1
