AFAIK 32A requires a different kernel to 32B, therefor I'm guessing it just wouldn't boot, but it wouldn't brick your phone or anything.
So yeah, just don't go there, find ROMs in the G1 section.
I have a mytouch-(The original one) and i have a problem. I hacked it a few months ago and everytime i install a rom from the mytouch section it doesnt work but my phone only works with G1 roms.
Please help me fix this.
the roms for the mytouch are generally made for 32a HTC phones different boards and hardware so they wont work as long as the rom as 32B you are good to go

"Hacked it" how?
What kind of original MyTouch do you have?
In other words, what spl, radio, recovery, etc.
well i don't really know how to check spl and radio. etc.
but what i do know is when i start up my phone with Home+Power
Build is RA-Dream-V1.6.2
Do (power+back) to get into fastboot and post that info.

You say you hacked your phone, but you don't know how to check the SPL and radio?

That's Amon's recovery manager, which allows you to do lots of cool things with your phone (flash ROMs, themes, wipe your phone/SD card, and more).
If you want to flash a ROM on your phone, I would suggest looking over in the G1 Android Development section for some ROMs that almost always work with the 32B MyTouch3G phones. Just make sure it's 32B and not 32A.
@Dust but i want to use a Mytouch rom now... i'm tired of using roms over at the G1 develp section when im not even using one.
and for my info here it is..
Sapphire Pvt 32B Ship S-on G
HBOOT-1.33.0006 (Sapp30000)
CPLD-10
Radio-2.22.19.261

Then it says fastboot, hboot mode, reset device, restart to hboot, and lastly power down.

You have the MT3G thats not the Fender/1.2 MT3G (No 3.5 mm headphone jack on the top, I have the same phone.)
As far as roms go, you have to go through the G1 roms or find 32B roms. The MyTouch threads are usually 32A roms which are for the Fender/1.2 versions. Some roms will have [32A] or [32A/32B] in the posting. Look for the ones that work on both versions or just 32B.
Try the Rom Bible in the G1 Development Thread. Also, not trying to be an ass, but make sure you know what you are doing before you try to flash a rom onto your phone. The last thing you want to do is brick your phone and have no idea what the specs on your phone are.
also I should add that you can have a Mytouch and have a Hero rom flashed on it. Thats the beauty of rooting and flashing so don't think that you need a Mytouch rom for your Mytouch. The roms are created for the specific model of phone...
oh ok thanks. and yeah when i flash rom i just pick anything and flash... lol
last thing.. since you are using the same phone as me what rom are you using atm?

Just note that if you run a Hero rom then you will have to reboot every so often (about every day or so) and you will not have bluetooth.
Depending on the Hero rom you will also not have camcorder, wifi, livewallpaper, etc.
So... if all that sounds good then go for it.
Personally, I avoid Sense UI roms like the plague.
ok thanks. i am wondering about live wallpapers though because all i have is the maps.. how do i get other live wallpapers?
You look in the market for lwp. I am using the same phone as you too. Running chromatic 4.3 atm. It runs good. Cm 5.0.8 runs really well (2.1). Or enomther has a really good 1.6 just look around and try different ones. That's the fun.

If you want a decent Nexus LWP I recently came across one on Market by stealthcopter.com called Nexus Revamped. They have a paid version as well that has more options. I was so impressed with it that I got the paid version.
thanks guys really helped clear things up.
Using the chromatic and the Nexus LWP now thanks for your suggestions.
Just like the title states, I would like to get a 32a mt3g MyTouch 1.2 device back to stock to receive an ota. I tried searching, but I can't find anything. The phone has a cyanogen rom on it.

Welcome to the club. While I found several threads here and a website or two, none of them are clear enough for me to understand and consequently try the steps described.
You sure it's a 32A?

ARE YOU FREAKING SERIOUS???
This is really upsetting me. You are actually 100% WRONG!!! You do NOT have a 32A device!!!
Does it say 32A? Obviously. But it is NOT a pure 32A device!
Tell me. What (besides the text on your device) makes your phone a 32A?
Does it take a 32A radio? No.
Does it take a 32A kernel? No.
Is it EB1 compatible? No.
Does it take a 32A rom? No.
So... if your device doesn't take a 32A radio, kernel or rom... then why is it a 32A? IT'S NOT!
Don't believe me that it's not a 32A? Try flashing a 32A radio and 32A spl and have fun with your bricked device. Maybe try flashing a rom and I'll wait for your post asking "Why won't my phone work?"
The only thing that makes your phone anything close to a 32A is the memory. That's it. Nothing else.
What you have is a MyTouch 1.2 (aka Fender, LE)
It's a 32B with 32A memory thus making it a hybrid of the two. How much does ram have to do with unrooting and getting the ota update? It doesn't. So I suggest you do a search for "How to unroot" to get the answer for your 32B device.
Look, bottom line. There is NO MyTouch 32A phones sold by T-Mobile in the United States. That is why you were asked

because anyone that has an American flag or American location on their profile either means that they actually have a 32B device or they had to order it from another country.
By the way, just a warning. If you get the OTA, the Androot method may not work anymore so you would have to use another method other than Androot (or similiar app) to root again (such as goldcard method). Might I suggest a 32B Rooted OTA rom? Try the G1/Dream section.
To add to that even more. What update? As far as I know the update released by T-Mobile was only for the older 32B model of the myTouch 3G, not the Fender/1.2.
I believe it is perma-rooted but on my Hboot it is listed as S-ON how can I turn it to S-off? Many thanks

In my Hboot I have Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G if the information is needed, I just want to downgrade the Hboot to 1.33.2010 any help is much appreciated!
If it's a mytouch with a headphone jack then I don't think you can

Yes it is -_-... That's sucks looks like my friend is gonna have to update!
Why are you trying to get S-OFF?? There's not really any reason to have it unless your trying to change the radio, but that's not necessary, or to change the splash screen. It's easy to do if your rooted, but you can't leave it that way.
I want to install [Rom/Kernel][CM7/AOSP][2.3.7]CronMod-sapphire (updated 07/22)
But I am not too experienced and I want to know what is the difference between 32a-NR, 32a-OR.
I want to know which version is recommended for myTouch 3G 1.2, with 3.5mm headphone.

Thanks for your answer, but I still want to know what's the difference between 32a-NR, 32a-OR, I mean the "NR" and "OR" part.
It means New Radio and Old Radio
