[Q] Semi-Brick Need some Help - myTouch 3G, Magic General

I tried to update my SPL to the latest now I cant boot in to my system but I can get in Fastboot and Recovery.
The info I had before was:
MyTouch 3g v1.2
HBOOT-1.33.0013
Radio- 2.22.23.02
Mod- CM6.0
Also HBOOT says Sapphire Unkown 32b ENG S-OFF
I flashed the 2010 SPL from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529019
I think I need a new radio but cant seem to find one.
What should I do now to get back into my phone.

So you flashed the engineering SPL, now you've got to flash the new radio and also flash a new/the stock SPL. Do you still have access to recovery? If so, download this, put it in the Tools folder of AndroidSDK, then fastboot flash it to the phone. Download this, put it on your SD card, boot into recovery, and flash it. That will get you back to the stock SPL with the 2825 radio.

Can you update the fastboot info?
Just to make sure that the flash did succeed!

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.

Go into recovery and flash that rom.
You'll then have a rooted stock rom. Which is how I rooted my fender. DO NOT use a radio from any other thread than the one I specified, otherwise you have a very strong chance of actually bricking your phone.
The reason you go down to a 2010 Engineering SPL in the first place is because the 1.33.0013 is perfected and you can't flash anything, so least this way you go down to 2010, flash the needed radio/hboot/recovery allowing it to be rooted, then you flash the stock (rooted) rom.

If he already made the gold card, that's good, but may still need to flash the engineering SPL (2010) because I think 2007 is also perfected. I would still just flash the engineering SPL since I Know that works, and at this point we're trying to avoid any chance of bricking.
edit : wasn't 100% sure of what I was saying ;-)
Thats every one for helping I really appreciate it.
I tried flashing the Engineering SPL (2010) but i left it as (Sappimg.zip) and when i flash it through Hboot it asks me if i want to start the update after i press the trackball it says System-unzipping and thats where it stays. it doesnt load. and i tried to flash a couple of of other spls before but it stop after it tried to update the Radio. For some reason i cant update the radio it always freezes when the update is about 95% complete.
Any Answerss ???? Please =\

K, Let's try this, at the point you are now:
Using the zip file from : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623141
and the 1.6.2G Recovery from : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530492

If you get a Remote Denied after trying the first command, then your current SPL is perfected. However if it works, continue to flash the hboot and recovery.
PS: I have no clue why it freezes during the SPL flashing, "ROM v2.53.707.2 (Engineerings SPL v1.33.2010)" should have flashed just fine on the MT3G LE.

I had the problem where no matter how many times I tried the root procedure, it would eventually freeze on the "ANDROID" splash screen and then go to a black screen, nothing else.
I have no idea if this is the correct thing to do, but I eventually went in to recovery and did a Wipe data/factory reset. Then I did the root procedure again and it finally allowed it to boot all the way. Maybe someone who understands better can comment if this was right. Anyway, it worked for me when I basically had no other choice (or so I thought).
From the little bit of knowledge I have so far you did it correctly. If it gets stuck on the load screen or if the screen turns black you usually have to reboot into recovery then do everything you did. If you're flashing a THEMED rom and this happens that means you didn't flash the original rom first. Binary does this with his themes since making roms for mt3g 1.2 is apparently retarded difficult. And just to break it down a little more, he made a themed rom from stokes eclair rom. So I had to flash that rom and then flash his rom since its not a full rom, only a theme. Hope that helped

[Q] Cannot turn security off (S-OFF) on rooted Rogers 32A Magic

I've rooted my Magic, got Cyanogenmod running nicely, etc. I was then trying to flash a new splash screen, and noticed that my security in fastboot shows as begin on (S-ON). Sure enough it wouldn't let me flash the splash screen, it said the signature was not valid.
So, I tried flashing every single engineering SPL possible, and it never changes to off.

That's what I've done. I've flashed every single engineering hboot file I can find and each one still shows S-ON during fastboot/hboot, and I"m unable to flash through fastboot.
Follow these steps (you should find it in this Mytouch Room)
1. Create your goldcard.
2. Comeback to 1.5 version by flashing rom 1.5 from goldcard.
3. Install Recovery Flasher (RF).
4. Run RF, chose Flash Cyanogen 1.4 img
5. Copy new E-SPL to root of Sdcard, Boot to Recovery mode, flash this file SPL
6. You can flash new recovery img (like 1.7.0G) by fastboot mode through your PC.
Check your new SPL now and S-ON becomes S-OFF.
I've successed on Magic 32B with perfect SPL 1.33.0006 and S-ON.

If this currently a 1.33.20** spl with s=off and a custom recovery can you please do the following
Run 'adb shell dump_image misc /tmp/misc_dat.img'
Then
'adb pull /tmp/misc_dat.img misc_dat.img'
Then send me the resulting image somehow (pm me a rapid share link or ask for my email.. there ought not be any identifiably info in misc but just in case)
This may or may not clear up why there is an issue.. and let a better process to fix it be created.. untill then try unrooting (or installing a stock spl) and re-rooting as was mentioned, just onto forget radio versions may change in the process requiring caution not to skip ahead of yourself and brick.
UPDATE:
So I got the file, misc was nearly all blank without the usual data (boot mode, CID and some other data) this is easily fixed by re-flashing misc from recovery.. I think this can even be made into an update.zip.. (since all magic/dream misc partitions are essentially the same besides the CID, and the CID is still being passed to the recoveries command line when stuck in this state.

So i had to fix the SPL on the mytouch because i kept getting the Fastboot Remote Not allow, So i did the SPL Fix and rebooted and i had a black HTC Magic screen, Got some progress then it said to throw a rom on there but i couldnt get to recovery, i try to flash a recovery and i get remote signature verify fail. So i tried flashing the SAPPIMG again and it is stuck on unzipping, Rebooted again and tried to flashboot boot recovery.img it transfers the recovery and reboots and stuck ad the black htc magic screen again.
Well i made some progress i can flash recovery and stuff now but it wont boot to recovery, i got the recovery to flash successfull but for some reason when i hold home and power it sits at the magic screen
As of right now i have
SApphire PVT 32a eng s-off h
hboot-1.76.2007
cpld-13
radio-6.35.10.18
Well i think ive done everything to this phone............ would be nice to figure somthing out. Been working on it since about 10AM this morning and i got nothing, does anyone have a fix?!
Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks Guys!!

I can flash a new radio on it and a new SPL on it, it takes that when i flash it
To root the phone you need to use the ENG spl 2010 flash your custom recovery, then stock radio and spl. After that, flash ROMs thru recovery. You can not use any other radio/spl at this time.

I think i bricked it now..... it stuck on a 0009 SPL and i cannot do a sappimg it wont unzip and i cannot flash a different spl it does the signature verify fail
Does your phone have the 3.5mm jack? Are you sure you've got a 1.2?
Well, If your phone still turns on and your have a working goldcard, try the ENG 2010 SPL from the Magic SPL thread. once you are back down to 1.33.2010 SPL and 3.22.x radio, fastboot your custom recovery, flash stock mytouch 1.2 radio then spl.
At that point, you won't have any OS tho. so, go into recovery, wipe all (but NOT your SD goldcard). Then flash custom ROM+gapps (if needed)
What is your fastboot info RIGHT NOW....
Remember that if you have a MyTouch 1.2 (with 3.5mm headphone jack) you MUST have the following AFTER you flash your custom recovery.
Radio: 2.22.23.02
SPL: 1.33.0013
So use the engineering SPL (2010) and 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' with a Amon_Ra 1.7.0G or Clockwork Recovery for MyTouch devices (NOT MAGIC).
Afterwards reboot to your recovery by holding HOME while booting. If you can boot into recovery then flash your stock spl (1.33.0013) back. Then flash your rom.

I had the same issue the other day while experimenting on my mt3g 1.2. What worked for me was using adb to push the stock mt3g hboot and radio and then rerooting my phone. You can download the files you need from the unlockr.com web page and skim his how-to for android in the unrooting section. Hope this helps.
does it still boot into fastboot, hboot, or recovery?

if it boots into fastboot, hboot, or recovery you are not sunk yet. you will need the "official" sappimg.zip or .nbh on your gold card, but it should go through the steps and re-image it.. this will get your phone back to stock.
are you using a Tmobile MyTouch 1.2? or are you using a Rogers Magic?
the files will be different as the hardware requires differnent drivers.
there are many links on this site, or theunlockr.com that will get you the correct files you will need. make sure you check the md5 sums on anything you download to make sure its not corrupted before trying to flash it.
hope this helps.

Flashed 32B radio on 32A, Now showing as 32B in Fastboot, No Recovery

I have a T-Mobile branded MT3G 1.2 that I flashed today's CM nightly onto and the screen got the green tint issue. I looked into it and read I need to flash pershoot's kernal to fix it, but i needed the new radio (I had the 2.22 and all the 32A kernels said they were for 3.22).
I tried to fastboot the 32A radio, but got an error because it was a perfected SPL (I think thats why, at least), so I tried to flash an ENG SPL for 32A, using the files for reverting back from 6.35.07 radio to 3.22 for the 32A from gadget-space.com I flashed the HBOOT.zip using RomManager, and when I rebooted, the phone did not get past the splash screen. Couldn't boot into recovery but fastboot works.
now it's showing this in the fastboot info:
SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32B ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13
RADIO-3.22.20.17
Jun 2 2009,17:27:03
No matter what HBOOT I flash, i can't get it to change back to showing 32A. Also I've tried reflashing Amon Ra's Recovery and still can't get back into there.
Any ideas on how to get this phone working again?
I did the same thing as you trying to install the official T-mobile Froyo OTA ported for the 32A. After flashing the radio and spl I could no longer get the phone to boot or go into recovery. The only thing I could do was fastboot. After trying half a dozen SAPPIMG.zip files I managed to find the correct one. All I had to do was put the SAPPIMG.zip onto the sd card, put it in my phone, fastboot to hboot and it should unzip the SAPPIMG and install on your phone. Not sure if this will work for you but it's worth a shot.
found the unrooted imgboot.zip, flashed it and re-rooted with androoter, now all is well.
Now that I have this back to a working phone, should i update the radio?
I have no idea but now that I'm back to stock 1.6 I think I'm just gonna wait for the T-Mobile official OTA Froyo for the 32A. It should be out fairly soon and it'll be better than any 2.2 rom you'll find online since it was designed specifically for the 32A and not ported over or anything.
Where did you find the unrooted img.zip i been looking all over the net?
