My phone seems to drop a lot of call's and my signal streangth is very low. If I were to update my phones Radio would it help me ?? I have been using the same radio since my first ROM update about a year ago, but the signal issue has only started in the last few months.
If a new Radio will help at all ... please point me in the right direction as to how to update it, and what update I should use on my 32A.
Thank you for any help !
My Device:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)
CPLID-13
RADIO-2.22.23.02
Oct 21 2009,22:33:27
My T-Mobile MyTouch is rooted and running:
Kernel - 2.6.35.7 & CyanogenMod-6.1.0-RC1-DS
Android - 2.2.1
Build - FRG83
I never noticed better reception on the new radio but you can always give it a try. You don't have a true 32A device btw. You need to read the last post in the stickied thread for myTouch 1.2's (headphone Jack). It's actually a hybrid phone. Currently the only radios known to work for it are the one you have, 2.22.28.25, and 2.22.27.08.

Hi everyone,
I am somewhat new at this so please be patient with me if I am not understanding this correctly. I have been searching and reading and posting questions on different threads for several days now any can't seem to come to any kind of conclusion as to what ROM I should/could be using so I need some help. What I am trying to get is a stable (preferably official) ROM with HTC Sense on my T-Mobile USA MyTouch 3G 1.2 (Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G). Every forum post I have found so far has had slightly different info. Here are some questions I have based on different posts and guides I have read:
1. Is the MT3G 32A == HTC Magic 32A for Rogers/UK? What is the difference? Radio?
2. Can any 32A ROM be used for MT3G 32A? Why/Why Not?
3. Would an official HTC Magic ROM for Rogers or Voda work using rom.zip(from RUU_Sapphire_SMC_Voda_WWE_3.03.990.6_release_signed_NoDriver.exe)->sappimg.nbh then update using goldcard method? Why/Why Not?
4. Does the MT3G 32A have the same hardware as the HTC Hero? If so can I use official or custom Hero ROM? Why or Why not?
Anyone have any suggestions on what to do?
Here is what I have now:
T-Mobile USA MyTouch 3G 1.2/Fender with 3.5 MM Jack
Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13

Rooted Fender ROM
Thank you,

The thing is any Magic with 3.5 headphones jack on the top requires a different procedure to flash custom roms. So Magic 32A roms dont work on those with 3.5 jack due to the new hardware. There are no custom roms yet, so the only thing you can get is root(like you already have). Oh, if I were you I wouldnt try flashing custom roms of hero and Magic 32A. Just wait for the "offical" custom rom.
Hi members!
I want to know if i can update my htc magic radio?
Cause I flashed it with CM6, but my radio signal is worse than it was on cm5.0.8.
Some details:
Sapphire PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0004 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
Radio-2.22.19.26I
Apr 9 2009,23:30:40
I tried searching the forums, but couldn't find anything about update radio's.
There is this tool, but it only has 32A radio's so that made me confused and unsure if i should use it.
Thanks!
On Magic 32B there are only two recommended radios:
2.22.19.26l
2.22.23.02

I'm pretty sure I used to be on 26i, but now I show that I'm on 23.02, even though I unrooted. Is it possible that one of the ROMs I flashed along the way updated my radio?
Is the 2.22.23.02 radio the most current version? I'm super confused now.
Flashed this and Bricked phone.double check previous radio/spl compatibility before flash save people heartache
Doh!

hello all
i intend to upgrade my mt3g from 1.6 to cm6 soon. i am following this guide: wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Upgrading_from_CyanogenMod_4.2_to_CyanogenMod_5/6
and i have this phone:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP30000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.23.02
its a t-mobile mytouch3g.
i have followed all the steps in the guide and stopped at the cm6 install.
my question is: it says i dont need to upgrade my radio. i have no idea how old the guide is and i want to verify before i take the final step that this is still valid.
my other question is: if i need to upgrade anything else before i go for the big upgrade.
Thanks

Your radio is up to date. Should be fine.
thank you for your response.
i don't have that radio, and have been trying to find out where to get it. ive got a tmobile mytouch 3g but my baseband version is 62.505.20.17h_2.22.19.26I.
I'm running cm6, was running cm5 and cm4 before. i rooted long ago, but have never found a way to update those aspects.
How do i upgrade my radio? where do i find the current one?
Here's the info from my information page on the phone:
Model: T-Mobile myTouch 3G
Firmware version: 1.6
Baseband version: 62.50sc.20.17U_2.22.23.02
Kernel version: 2.6.29-g023e5c9, [email protected] #3
Build number: 2.10.531.4 CL119339 release-keys
Also, it has the jack on the top of the phone.
I'm having trouble finding a How-To for this phone. Some sites say
don't do this on 1.6, others say don't do this if you have the jack.

What spl and radio do you have?
Power off your phone.
Hold volume down + power button while starting.
You should see a white screen.
Type out everything on that screen here.
Wait for a reply.
One thing I can tell you its probably a 32a phone if it has the 3.5mm jack on top of the phone.
heres a link to help you out. otherwise there is turn of info on ROM and rooting the 32a

Universal Androot is probably your best option, install the app, root/unroot with the click of a button.

Also... just FYI, you have a MyTouch 1.2, which requires 32B radios and roms and your stock spl (s-on). As of today December 29, 2010, you must have this. An Eng SPL (s-off) will not work and other radios are too risky and offer nothing different performance or reception wise. Always treat your phone as a 32B or you might break your phone.
Er... even though the phone says 32A on that screen you sent me to?
EDIT
Also, what ROM do I use? I went here: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/files/category/1-stable-mod/
and I don't see my Mytouch 1.2 in the list.

Trust me. I have the same device. It says 32A but it's a 32A/32B hybrid. The only thing that is 32A is the RAM.
Use roms made for G1/MyTouch 32B devices.
Google G1 isn't in that MOD list, either.

The G1 = HTC Dream.
Like MyTouch 3G = HTC Sapphire.
Hello
im kinda a noob still so i would really appreciate some help.
Currently i am running CM 6.1
Heres my setup:
Mytouch 3g 1.2 32A
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT- 1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13
RADIO-2.22.23.02
OCT 21 2009, 22:33:27
I tried a full wipe and installing GY RC 6.1 and i got an error with the Boot image during installation of the compcache.
I see that most people have a different radio which appears to be a newer radio, could that be the problem?
any help and directions would be greatly appreciated, thank you
You need to upgrade your radio to either 2.22.28.25 or 2.22.27.08, which is stated in the first post of the Yoshi thread.
