Hey guys
Recently I have bought an HTC Magic from eBay , it has a "T Mobile " logo at the top of it , so I presume it's the myTouch 3G version (That also what that appears at the opening screen) .
I'm locally staying in the middle east , the phone was sent to me from NY , it's an unlocked phone (according to the seller )
I have turn on the phone , insert my SIM card , but couldn't pass through the gmail account screen , I can't access google's servers , and therefore can't continue using the phone (can't keep going through that screen)
I was trying to change then network setting and changed it to my carrier , (I can't turn on the wifi too - if there is any way to do so ?)
I have download few Roms and recoveries and placed them at the SD card , while booting -( HBOOT) the device couldn't locate the Roms , and therefore couldn't make an installation of new ROMS
I have called HTC costumer care in the UK , but they couldn't help my that much.
Basically , what I was thinking to do is to try to wipe out the current operation system and install a new one , doing that using only the HBOOT menu , (I presume the phone is consider to be NOT rooted )
I'm quite newbie in this field , and I'd like to receive some advices cause I'm pretty stuck in with this ,
what shall I do next ?
Cheers
Shahar
Ok , I set it up
I have used a sim card with internet access, and set the APNs setting as well ...

i have new leo with ROM 1.43 today after trying to upgrade to ROM 1.66 I did everything as asked, the installer began , with all the colours on the leo display then it started the percent completion counter , and after 2% it wrote me error something , and the leo restarted but stuck in the white start up menu with the green HTC icon and below the R G D information but the device doesnt proceed further and stuck here !!!
please help !!!!
it write me as i recall
it wrote me if i recall right :
INVALID MODEL ID
did you install HSPL before trying to install the ROM?
no i didnt try to install anything !
no i didnt try to install anything ! , just started the intallation file ROM arabic-english , and did what i asked to do !
if i didnt install hspl what can i do ?
can i take the device to the shop i bought it from and use the warranty ?
well, no...did you get the file from HTC direct or off here? your phone could be vendor locked to your provider so if you can get the original ROM that was on your phone you can flash that back on...
you should really read into things before jumping in at the deep end...
well i have an inlocked device ...
o bought the device in europe , but i am from israel , htc sent me notification about new arabic ROM with link , i tried with my serial to download but couldnt , it wrote me "this upload not compatible with ur device" , i downloaded it from here XDA developers , but it went wrong !! , the problem that the phone stuck in the loader menu , before uploading the sense interface , and i have no connection between the pc and the phone "no active sync" so how can i reinstall the older version or make the phone load again ?!!?!! plz help !
you need the original ROM and a connection to your PC. run activesync as even not working it should connect up...
no there is no connection the device centre says not connected
the phone is not responding and the pc doesnot establish connection with it , i am stuck with loading menu with the R 2.04.50.22~2
G 15.26.50.070
D 1.43.7024
from there nothing moving , if i do soft reset it , it stucks again in the same menu !!!
i didnt install HSPL , and i guess i tried to install not the correct region ROM upgrade , the phone was purshased in lithuania , but htc offerd me middle eastern ROM because i want the arabic - hebrew support !
plz help
You could try installing the Shipped ROM via microsd card method. Just make sure your battery is above 50%. then follow these steps:
1. Using 7Zip, Open your Shipped ROM.exe (You need your exact shipped ROM for this, anything else will give you the error you got)
2. Look for the "RUU_signed.nbh" (without the quotes)
3. Copy RUU_signed.nbh to your microsd card AFTER formatting the microsd as FAT32 (quick format works well enough, using Win 7)
4. Rename 'RUU_signed.nbh" to "LEOIMG.nbh" (again, without the quotes)
5. Take out the HD2 Battery and insert microsd card in slot.
6. Put Battery Back on and hold the "Vol Down" key while pressing the Power key
7. Follow the instructions on the screen... (remember you need at least 50% battery power just to make sure everything goes as planned)
8. Soft Reset after your done and you have a "Fresh" Shipped ROM on your HD2!
Optional:
9. Install HSPL (use the guide that's been stickied in the ROM Dev Section)
10.Flash the ROM of your choice via MicroSD method or activesync (again, please read the Stickied guides in the ROM Dev Section)
Good Luck!
total storage 328 instead of 180 !!!
well i didnt need anything to do, i pressed and hold the up vol. and down volume and pressed the power key , it did a hardreset and my old ROM back to me , though i noticed strange thing !!!
after the hardreset back to my old ROM i checked the SD card & phone storage and i found that i have now total storage 328 instead of 180 !!!
but then i upgraded my ROM this time with legal one from HTC support site , and the total storage got back to 180 again !!!
anybody knows what happened here ?!
p.s thank u guys for the help

HELP
i am a newbie in this

Who can help me here ?
You don't need to rename it to update.zip, just select install zip from sd card.
Download the right rom from shipped rom for your phone and run it from your PC
I don't think you can use the file you mentioned above as your phone is not rooted ( I might be wrong)

Hello folks, I have purchased a US T-Mobile G1 from the market on this forum and it was unlocked and rooted with latest version of cyanogen mod. Yesterday night while playing with the phone ( I am totally noob with the G1 ) I accidentally wiped everything back to the stock fw, so I lost dangerSPL, HDBoot and also the recovery partition has been corrupted.
Now with the stock firmware I am stuck with the google account sync even though if I press the menu button the APN editing option comes up and it lets me add the APN of my Italian sim card, but no matter what I do it just don't work, it keep say there's a problem with my SIM card network, and to try again.
Also when I turn on the phone I can see a screen that says Aperture Laboratories, with a draw of a cake which says "don't worry u still got root"
What is that??? a sort of perm root??
I been googling for a whole day now about how to bypass this process and I don't seems to have found any working informations.
Can anyone help me please ??? I am desperate ...
The only guide apparently working regarding bypassing the google account sync I have found is this one http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f606/bypass-t-mobile-g1-google-activation-phonecarecenter-781472/ , the problem is I can't just get to install the correct driver on Windows XP SP2/SP3 neither on Windows 7 32bit, I have tried the impossible, but it just doesnt work, and with the default windows 7 driver it can't be seen through adb devices... Is there a way to do it on Linux or Mac ??? Any working usb driver for Linux or osx ???
Does anyone have any idea??? I think the only way to activate this G1 is with a T-Mobile US sim card which I don't have and I don't have chance to get as I am in Italy, any help please ??? If I don't get that god damn home screen I wont be able to do anything ....
Umm - me too,in the same place .
Can't make my Windows (and i tried to use XP an Vista) to recognize HTC G1 as phone, not 'usb mass storage device'
I have successfully activated my G1 through wifi. Regarding the driver installation, I have went through this guide and I have followed it to letter, and it worked, hopefully it will work out for u..
Hello XDA Members,
I've used my HD2 for a few years until my USB port failed to work (no data, no power) took it to a phone shop but they couldn't fix it either
so i decided to buy another phone and forgot about the HD2.
Then last Christmas my grandpa past away and I remembered I still had some photo's of him on my HD2 so I started looking for it and found it after 2 days of searching
Borrowed a battery turned it on and then it asked for a password i cant remember -.-'
I spend a while looking for a solution to retrieve my photos (they aren't on the SD) on the interwebz without any luck,
- Tried removing the password
- Somehow this build doesn't come up with an alternative after too many tries.
- ADB not an option (no working USB)
- Tried installing app trough playstore (doesn't work since mine still has the "Market" app)
- Tried the calling the phone clicking home trick (asked for password)- Tried creating a nandroid (Does this also backup pictures?)
But i cant boot Recovery, clicking reboot>recovery result in a normal reboot (any other way ?)
Is it possible to do a dual boot (Native SD) and get my pictures through the "not locked" android ?
Current state of my HD2:
SPL-2.08.HSPL
magldr 1.11 (cant update to 1.13)(even possible without USB ?)( won't an update result in a full data wipe ?)
CM7 MDJ's (don't know which version)
Locked with a password
I can't seem to remember the HD2 saving pictures in-phone (NAND) w/o any SD card coz camera won't run w/o it.

I remember that the pictures were still available on the phone whenever i removed the as card, thats the reason i think they still are..
I agree with mengfei, the (at least) the HD2 doesn't save pictures on the phone, but rather on the sdcard.
Have you tried checking the sdcard on your computer? Look for DCIM folder, if you can't find it or it's empty just search the sdcard for image files.
Checked SD
I've checked the SD card but there aren't any pictures/videos there.
Does this means there isn't any way to get in my phone just to be sure ?
