I have a MyTouch 3G Fender that I can't seem to get working with ADB. Apparently because I have a corrupted or incomplete OS on it, I can't get it to work.
When I boot it up in Fastboot, it connects to the USB. I can use Fastboot commands in order to get SDK to read the device, but ADB does not work. It will not read the device, so I can not make a GoldCard for my MT3G 1.2
Can anyone help me with this issue? I have updated the USB drivers through SDK, and the only thing stopping me from here on out is getting the code for my phone to make a GoldCard.

hello everyone,
im having some trouble with my 32b vodafone magic. im hoping someone might be able to help me with.
i tried to update the rom to the jachero, but i didnt update the SPL first. now when i turn on the phone it just goes to the hero/htc splashscreen and keeps looping that. the phone wont load up fully.
i did some searches and found out that i could use the adb program in the android sdk, however when i load it nothing is showing in the devices list. i think this is because usb debugging is not enabled?
i can get into fastboot OK and cyans 1.4 recovery as well.
would it be possible for me to go into the console and type a command in there that would enable usb debugging? if so what do i need to type and how do i get the keyboard to appear in cyans recovery console in the first place? - (i have the usb drivers already installed on windows from the sdk)
other then that i was thinking i could just buy a micro sd card reader and copy the spl onto it that way and then update? and then update the ROM.
ive tried restore/wipe but that doesn't work for me either, i still keep getting stuck on the splash screen.
any help would be very much appreciated.
thanks a mill,
luke
hi again,
i thought id give some more info that might be of use, hopefully.
my current spl is 1.33.0004 and the radio is 2.22.19.26I
i tried using fastboot but everytime i try to flash a file onto the device i get remote: signature verify fail
thanks,
luke
hiyas, just a quick update, i went and got an sd card reader and updated the spl and then put the rom on it and its flying now.
I have a friend who got a MyTouch 3G off of craigslist. It works great, but he saw what I did with my G1 and wanted to root it and all of that business. Well as simple as everyone seems to make it, I still had issues getting it rooted, but I think I got it done. I noticed it already had the Engineering SPL already loaded on it when he got it. I managed to get Amon_RA's 1.2.3 Recovery on it and flash CM4.2.7.1.
Here is the problem, His phone isn't recognized by ADB. I can boot into fastboot and it will recognize the phone, but I tried to update it to Amon_RA's 1.5 recovery through fastboot and it said "NOT ALLOWED". I know I have ADB and Fastboot setup properly because it works fine for my G1. What could be the issue keeping his phone from working.
Thanks in advance.

what spl does it exactly have?
Does adb work on your phone from that same pc?
Do you have all your drivers correctly installed?
He has:
The Engineering SPL 1.33.0006
PVT32B board
Radio 2.22.19.26I
When I plug in the phone it doesn't ask for new drivers and I even tried to update them manually with the newest SDK.
My phone works fine from the same computer. Fastboot recognizes both of our phones, ADB only recognizes my phone. When I try to flash a new recovery on his phone via fastboot, it says not allowed.
My phone is:
Engineering SPL 1.33.2005
PVT 32B
CPLD-4
Radio 2.2219.26I

I tried that. Re-installing and updating ADB didn't work. Everything that works for my G1 doesn't seem to work for my friends MT3G. I also have a friend who has a stock Hero from sprint and his phone isn't recognized by ADB either.
Fastboot will recognize his device, but it won't allow me to flash his phone.
I am attempting to root a mytouch 3G 2.1 (w/ the headphone jack)
I followed the directions from theunlockr
got my goldcard working (according to the link on that page that tells you how)
After flashing the sappimg file on that page, I still had touch screen. (the site said I wouldn't)
and when I got to step 7 - the step about flashing through fastboot - I got the error "(remote: not allow)"
I flashed the attached file and got the same error.
I searched some more and found a supposed fix I downloaded the first and tried it, got "model ID incorrect! Update Fail!"
At this point, my phone would not show up in adb, but it would in fastboot, and it would boot to the login to google screen (didnt bother logging in earlier)
Tried the second one, same error.
Reset the device, booted fine. Restarted into fast boot, it is recognized, but still getting error "(remote: not allow)". Still not showing in adb.
My phone currently says:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13
RADIO-2.22.23.02
so my phone works, but it is not rooted and I still have the stock recovery. If I could get Amon_ra on it I feel comfortable with doing the updates through recovery.
And if I understand it correctly, this root is like a droid, caused by the ROM and not actually part of the stock ROM, correct?
I've done 4 g-1 and a droid in less than 3 hours each, but I've been at this all day.
Help! What can I try?
I tried to show links, but I'm new to the board and cant.
Ok, So I will document as I go, so either someome can help me at some point or I can help someone else if they have the same problem.
Redownloaded the sapping file (through the cyan wiki)
Reformated my goldcard through phone.
used a sd card adapter and HxD to put goldcard back on sdcard.
transfered new sapping file to sd card
booted in bootloader, got "Model ID Incorrect" Update failed.
I do have the three skating androids though... is that stock?
I will try rebooting my computer, maybe windows is being stupid...
Rebooted, Windows is not seeing the phone. Neither is the HTC sync thing, and neither is adb
Changed USB ports, uninstalled unknown device, changed usb ports again,
ADB recognized it (not in bootloader mode)
ok, found another site with adb commands. forums .tmonews. com /index. php? topic= 10412 .0;wap2
did a google search for "vodaphone sappimg", came up with a forum post on here, downloaded it to my goldcard, still get model ID incorrect.
so I started over from the beginning using cyan instructions. update failed again.
No idea what is going on!
I have an Htc magic already rooted and with clockwork recovery running cm6.0.0 I want to update it to a newer Rom, a fast froyo or fast Gb, all of the root work wasn't done by me, I don't know much about this particular device, anyway when I try to do a backup cwRecoverysays 0 Mb on sd card, Wich is not true, I think it may be a problem of the old version of cwRecovery (2.5) so I don't know what if the best method for changing just the recovery.
By the way this 32a is running spl 1.33.2010 and 3.22 radio
Anyone? anyone?
Anyway... I now understand how to flash the recovery without damaging the rest, I'm trying to use the tool that changes radios and recovery, but the phone wont get recognised in fastboot, when I plug the cable windows recognizes the device fine but when I type fastboot devices I get none listed, maybe it has something to do with the usb drivers I'm using windows 7x64
well, where to start...i bought my MT3G 1.2 brand new because my original decided to have antenna issues (only cell antenna and only inside a building). so fast forward about a year, after rooting my NEW MT3G, I end up letting a friend use it til he can get a replacement for his. I get the phone back (after his dog bit through the screen) and another MT3G that is broke to use as a donor for the screen. swap screens, salvage other parts to fix my original, and boot up the 1.2.
now here is where it gets...interesting...to say the least. unlike before, where it booted to the MyTouch 3g splash screen, it now thinks it is an HTC Magic...i have been looking and unsuccessfully flashing builds TRYING to get it to what it was so i can upgrade the radio and actually know what i have again.
what would cause the phone to think it is a Magic? was it something in clockworkmod? can it be reversed? and why, for the love of god, can i not flash anything but EZGingerbread to it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, cause im about to pull out what little hair i have left >_<
Sounds like fun!
If you haven't done yet: Download Android-SDK and install it (while installing choose Android SDK Tools, Android Platfrom-tools and Google USB Driver).
Connect your phone to usb and start it to bootloader (fastboot usb, back+power). Open a commandline on your computer and go to "...\android-sdk\platform-tools" depending on where you installed it. Then type
Code:
fastboot getvar cid
and
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
and post the output here.
And please leave your hair where it belongs to! :laugh:
well....that wasnt too bad, i just get <waiting for device> and it hangs
even using CID Getter on the phone itself doesnt give me a CID like it does on my Glacier...i think something may be seriously messed up here >_<
Don't know why it may hang. Does the phone work properly? Maybe just the splash-screen was changed.
Have a look at this thread - there are all official roms for magic and so on. Having a look at your radio the stock-rom on your phone for now may be #56 or #57 (hboot 1.33.0013, radio 2.22.23.02). Only the OTA-update has newer versions.
I don't know if it's worth risking to brick the phone just for this update - only if it works properly at the moment.
It works properly as far as calls and texts and data, but I haven't been able to update the radio or hboot at all, it keeps giving a device id mismatch error

What you can do:
- if you don't have a custom-recovery on your phone install one - try this guide without the optional stuff
- when done install the stock-rom for your phone (via custom-recovery) from official-rom-thread - i don't know if #56 or #57
- root and install custom-recovery again as shown above*
- then you may apply the OTA-update via custom-recovery (#58 from the official-rom-thread)
*I don't know if it's possible just to flash everything except recovery, then you wouldn't need to root it and install custom-recovery again.
That would be the newest versions for your phone.
I have ClockworkMod recovery already installed, and with this being my backup phone, I wouldn't be mad without root at all, though root is nice, I want it to be right lol

So you can flash your phone to official stock-rom and then update it to newest official-rom as i explained above. Or what should i tell you right now?
I tried to flash a stock rom, but with no success, when I get home I'll try again and post the error log

SWEET!!! i got the fastboot commands to come through for me
fastboot getvar cid
cid: T-MOB010
fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 2.53.707.2
And what happens when you try to flash "57) 2.10.531.4 T-Mobile USA DRD35" via custom-recovery (your recovery will be flashed too)?
That is a self installing executable file, when i try to run it, it tells me that it can not communicate with the device, and to make sure that the usb cable is connected and the phone is on, which it is both
so the 57) 2.10.531.4 T-Mobile USA DRD35 flash went finally, turns out, my phone didn't like it too much, because now, i am stuck at the HTC magic splash screen and i think it is bricked
I don't get it, that should have been the correct files for your phone. You're sure that it's a Mytouch 3g 1.2 and not the normal Mytouch 3g?
How did you flash the file?
If you search here you can find "tutorials" how to get the rom-files out of the RUU to flash it in hboot-mode.
Can you get into recovery-mode? What about hboot-mode?
It was a .exe file, so it ran from my computer, and I know it's a 1.2 because I couldn't afford the fender edition lol. Now it just hangs on the splash screen and won't let me do anything at all

I think it would have been better to extract the rom-file and flash it with hboot from sd-card... Then you should have been sure about what he flashed.
Maybe now you got some weird radio-system-whatever-mix and that's why it doesn't start.
Normaly you flashed the correct rom-file for your phone.
What you can try:
- remove battery for some time (5 minutes or whatever) and press power - then get the battery back in and try to start it again
- start the phone with Home+Back+Power or Menu+Back+Power (don't remember), in my case there was a menu to erase cache and so on, maybe this would work for you
- is your phone listed in "fastboot devices" when you power on your phone with Vol down+Power, Back+Power, Power, Home+Power or the combination from above? I read that some people are already in fastboot-mode and have text on their display when they see the logo, shown for example here (they had red text on red vodafone-logo):

If not...
Does bluelight-mode work (i think it's trackball+power)? If so you can get it running with JTAG - you just need somebody who has the equipment and so on. Where are you from?
