Hi,
Something went wrong while flashing a new recovery image now i am unable to enter the recovery the phone just stays in the splash screen. When i try a normal boot its the same problem just the splash screen..
I can enter fastboot but i dont have an engineering SPL on it, what are my options ?
Details:
PVT 32B S-ON
HBOOT-1.33.0004 (SAPP10000)
RADIO-2.22.19.261
When i try to fastboot a new recovery image it says "permission denied" i think that this is because of the non engineering SPL ?
ps. Phone is rooted a long time ago, never had any problem flashing.
SOLVED
I booted amons recovery true fastboot and overwrite the wrong recovery image, then i flashed a good rom..so the phone is alive again.

Hi all,
I've been trying to install the amon RA recovery rom on mg gf's magic, but I'm stuck in a loop.
I've got a non perfect SPL loaded which boots into cupcake
Sapphire PVT 32B Ship S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-3.22.20.17
However when I try to run fastboot boot recovery.img it restarts and gets stuck on the splash screen.
I've re-made the sd card to be a gold card and I've still got the issue.
I've also tried running fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and I get Infosignature checking... FAILED )remote : signature verify fail).
Can anyone help me sort this?
Many thanks
will
You're using a non-engineering SPL, so all fastboot commands will fail. 1.33.2005 has fastboot enabled and you should be able to flash it from your currect state, however I was on .26i radio when I flashed it so I don't know for certain.
EDIT: Since you're on cupcake you should be able to use flashrec to flash the recovery image, so not engineering SPL required!
Hi Adrian,
thanks so much for replying.
In the meantime I've tried another sappimg and this has taken me to 1.33.2010 which has let me fastboot flash recovery... but when I try to boot into recovery (hold home and restart) all i get is the htc magic spash screen
The other issue is that the rom ive now got is lacking the google tools and therefore market, so i cant get flashrec
Any thoughts?
thx
No problem about missing the market, do "adb install *Drag FlashRec APK here*", that will get it installed.
How long did you hold down home+power to get to recovery? The first time I did it after loading up Amon Ra's 1.7.0 it took me holding them for around 1.5-2 minutes before it finally booted in.
Hiya,
I waited about 5 mins or so
I've now got flashrec installed... looking for what to do next?
Here. Start at step 12 assuming you've already got a recovery image.
Hmm, just tried that and it flashes in an instant (too quick tbh!), so im wondering if this is because its already got the recovery on it from when i did it via fastboot
After restarting and holding home im still getting just the splash screen
Is there a way to view what is on the /recovery/ partition, or is there a reason its not wanting to boot into it?
thx
Which recovery image are you using?

He can't complete any fastboot commands since he doesn't have an engineering SPL.

I did tell him how to get one ;-P
Hopefully it won't come to that. I think he's loading the wrong recovery image.
recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
Try re-downloading the recovery image from here and try flashing again. If it doesn't work I think your going to have to try going Adrian's route.
Better yet, you can get it from step 5 here for a quicker download.
Also, when you were in FlashRec running the "/sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.2.3.img" command did you change recovery-RA-dream-v1.2.3.img to match the filename of your recovery image?
I've just managed to update the recovery, but strangely this is using the 32A recovery.. and not 32B.. but I've got a vodafone Magic
So I can now get into recovery and have followed the steps or dangerSPL, followed by cyanogen mod + gapps, but not i cant get it to fully start up and im stuck on splash screen
V confused now.. just checked in hboot and its still showing sapphire pvt 32b eng s-off H
Hboot 1.76.2007
radio 3.22.20.17
looks like the gf's not having a mobile tomorow.. oh dear im in trouble!
any ideas again much appreciated!
thx
Can you run any fastboot commands?
Yes I can now run fastboot commands and use the recovery tool
thx
Hi all,
hope to get some more help, sorry!!
After looking more into this it seems that one of the previous images i put on the 32b phone was a 32a radio... hence the issue with putting on the recovery image for the 32b not working.
So... i downloaded myTouch-radio-2_22_23_02.zip and using the recovery did an update from zip.. now however the phone boots and all i get is a picture of a box with an arrow pointing to an android robot (see attached!)
At this rate its looking like i need to buy a new phone!
cheers all
Hello.
I have a Htc Vodafone Magic, de version.
A few days ago i rooted and install cyanogen 5.0.7 and the i've upgraded to 5.0.8.
I used titanium backup, made a backup, and then i need it to restore. After that i couldn't use the phone.
Then i inserted the goldcard made it earlyer, where i had the rom, and update it.
It was a rom 5.0.7 with no app and no android market, and no root.
Now started in fast boot (vol down + power) and i have :
sapphire pvt 32b eng s-off H
Hboot-1.33.2010 (SAPP10000)
cpld-10
radio3.22.20.17
jun 2 2009, 17:27:03.
When i try to instal a rom it said that he cannot find any rom.
I used the link [How-To] Root and un-root the T-Mobile myTouch 3G
to revert to 32b since i so that i have 32b eng s-off H and i thought that is the problem.
i used this commands
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
It did not work.
No the phone starts and locks on the image with HTC MAGIC.
Thank you for your help.
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RAv1.2.0G.img
No the phone starts and locks on the image with HTC MAGIC.
when the phone stats with usb in it appears fastboot on a red background.
And i cannot use adb commands.
It is bricked?
the fastboot option works. i send recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G thru fastboot and the message was okay.
I think you can download radio 2.22.23.02 as zip file, put it on root of memory card, boot to recovery mode, apply this zip. Everything will be OK.
I flashed it 2 days ago for udating for my Magic radio version from 2.22.19.26I.
You can find the file on this room or I will attach it later.
thank.
i used Revert to 32B Radio and ROM procedure and made it.
Hello I have a problem and I need advice on Sapphire PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.76.2007 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
Radio-6.35.16.19, I do not know why but I can upload to your phone no recovery, system, boot userdata and recovery are delete.Consequently get only Hboot FastBoot-and perhaps some axle thank you in advance for your help
According your SPL-info, you have normal phone with normal combination hboot/radio. As you have S-OFF, you can use fastboot.exe utility to flash manually custom recovery
Search for AmonRa 1.6.2 patched by cursordroid recovery or get AmonRa HTC Hero recovery
Flash it by command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(where recovery.img - your file recovery)
Then turn phone off and turn on by pressing Home + Power - your phone should load into recovery
Via recovery you can flash custom ROM with tags [32a][6.35] or [32a][NewRadio]
Download fastboot commander from my signature - magic version.
Use the "Magic 32A" tab.
Flash the "new" combo...
Good luck
Thank you and I will try to know if it helped
Hello helped so now the phone back in its original condition as I bought it, and now I can start from the beginning and re-root your phone right thank you.
got Boot loops, no matter what ROM I used. my phone got stuck on the green "MyTouch" image and restarts in circles,
i could access recovery and fastboot

Flash the 1.33.0013 or 1.33.0013d spl. Most roms want that now
thank you so much my friend
i tried to restore my phone with SAPPIMG_Sapphire_TMUS_1.88.531.1_COC10_release_signed
after that i rooted it with flashrec-1.1.3-20091107-2
then i flashed this spl "update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2010-signed"
and flashed Gios_OTA_Froyo-2.0 ROM
it work like charm
but when i started another ROM it stuck again in boot loop
so my friend did you think it will need the spl you told me about "1.33.0013"to get out of boot loop and i think i'll flash the engineering one wright?
i tried to download 1.33.0013 but no luck could you send me the link?
thank you again for your help!
this is the only link i found about 1.33.0013
