Hi guys,
I'm really desperate because since weeks I'm searching for a Step-By-Step tutorial with links to the needed files to flash a current cyanogen rom (6.x) to a friends HTC Magic 32b (german vodafone rom)
I think this is the information you need:
Sapphire PVT 32b SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT - 1.33.0007 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
Radio-2.22.19.261
Jul 31 2009, 15:49:25
The current os-version is 1.6
Could anyone PLEASE help me and tell me what to do? In any tutorial I found before, there's something I don't understand or doesn't work with my configuration or a broken link.
Regards
A planless man
Maybe a link to the rom u are trying to install? What u have done thus far? Are u rooted? Ect.

Thank you for your fast answer.
It's not rooted, and I don't look for a special rom - but it should be a cyanogen 6.x
My problem is, that there's something in each tutorial I find, that I don't understand or is missing.
I so I don't start with it because I don't want to brick the Magic.
Maybe you know a "complete" tutorial and give me the link - I'll check it and we could discuss the point that are not clear.
Look at my guide..check my signature...
It should be all you need to root and get custom recovery.
The rest is rather simple and there are like 1000 guides on it..
Check out his guide and post your questions/concerns and ill try to help. At least by tomorrow night I'll be home with my PC

OK - so far so good.
What I understand is, that I have to do Step 1,2,3,4,5 and 7.
Now I want to flash this image: http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/dream/update-cm-6.1.0-DS-signed.zip
After that I want to flash the tiny google tools:
http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-mdpi-tiny-20101020-signed.zip
What I would do now is:
1. Copy both files to sdcard
2. Start magic with power + volume down
3. Perform Full sweep
4. Apply update-cm-6.1.0-DS-signed.zip
5. Apply gapps-mdpi-tiny-20101020-signed.zip
Is that correct or am I wrong again?
Did u do the steps to gain root? Meaning u are rooted and have a custom recovery? What recovery do u have? What radio/hboot do u have now? What do u mean by full sweep? Volume down and power is fastboot mode not recovery mode right? Do u have sdk set up on your PC?
Sent from my HTC Magic using XDA Premium App
I didn't do anything - at the moment I try to understand.
I followed the Link Magic: 4 easy steps ROOT guide in mumilover's signature.
OK fastboot was wrong, I meant recovery mode
A SDK is not needed as far as I understood mumilover
Ok. U are correct. I read it. Couldn't see his sign from xda app on my phone. I would flash the engineering spl too. Just me. But yes. Do all that and u will be good to go. Before u go flashing cm and gapps make a nandroid backup from recovery first. Then wipe everything from recovery and flash away
Sent from my HTC Magic using XDA Premium App
OK, I'll try all that this weekend and hope it works.
Thank you mumilover, Thank you johnson8cyl.
I'll post the result in this thread
Great !!!!!!
I tried yesterday evening and it worked.
I didn't flash cyanogen 6.1 because the zip-file was corrupt - but I switched to SuperFroyo and it runs and runs and runs ....
Again: Thank you for your great support!

First your S-ON so u have to do it using Adb
Second the file you downloading probably didn't finish downloading or is corrupt try downloading again.
Third: Your phone is ok the camera and wifi are known not to work for that ROM you flashed.

thanks for the reply but how do you flash a rom through adb ?
and there is no way to get my s-off ?
No, because you're unlocked through HTCDev tool.
You need to relock and downgrade to have S-OFF.
And your problem is - since you're unlocked by HTCDev, you need to flash kernels manually, using fastboot. Google it.
And your other problem is posting questions in General section instead of Q&A, and giving your thread a crappy title to add to it.
You said unlocked bootloader? Is that via HTC?

OK thanks for the help,thought this is were you post for help .....sorry about that
and as far as my title well that's what i need so that's what i asked for sorry if it was to crappy
so if a Moderator could please move this to the Q&A section that would be great and sorry about the post in wrong place like i said im still new to this .
and i did downgrade to 2.2.1 from 2.3.4 unless i did something wrong there ?
Maybe go back to stock and re-root? Lots of info here
Yes, you did wrong. If you have HBOOT 0.89.0007 - means you have the most updated HBOOT, and if you'd downgrade properly - you'd have HBOOT 0.86.0000.
You can still attempt to run gfree, but I doubt it'll do you any good.
You have 2 choices:
1) Stick with current setup and flash kernels from fastboot each time, like I said.
2) Modify misc_version again, relock bootloader, run "dowgrade" again, temp-root with Visionary and perm-root with gfree, following one of the many guides.
Your ROM won't flash, because it assumes something being written in the special file that describes the device as Glacier, but this assumption fails (most likely because the build you flashed previously messes something up in this file).
The other ROMs don't work, because you're not flashing the kernel.
Do some reading, please.
I can tell you this from experience, but I don't suggest you do anything until you calm down, gather your thoughts, and read some posts on this until it makes sense to you.
I had unlocked my bootloader via HTC. Then I realized it wasn't the best way, so I started doing this & that and having all sorts of issues. Only when you are ready, you need to relock your bootloader and then follow the very detailed guides on here to root and install the engineering hboot. I couldn't get s-off or downgrade to 2.2.1 until I relocked my bootloader. I don't know if that is the case for everyone, I only know I failed at every attempt to downgrade, until I relocked it. But please, be patient and try to read and understand a little before you attempt anything further.

How did you try to root? Using ace hack kit? If so, there is an IRC for this where you can probably request for help .you can check out at the hack kit thread.

That happened to me too, but it booted fine after a few restarts.
What part of the root did it get stuck in? You're s-on still which sux. Can you put a img file on the sd card root

Thank you just let me know when you upload!
What ROM are you running? Or did you simply try to acquire root capabilities so far (stock)? I really recommend you do some more searching around the forum because your problem seems like just some bad luck. Also did you back up before you started the AAHK?
Well... when you used AAHK what was the rom you have?
If the phone was with official update GB 2.3.5 sense 3, the hack kit automatically DOWNGRADE the rom before attempt to root and get it S-OFF (with the last official update there's no way to success S-OFF, only root)...
Than the kit (run it twice) will perform S-OFF and root.
If the phone was with a rootable rom the hack kit SKIP the downgrade step and attempt directly to S-OFF and root the device.
So.... what exactly the situation?!
EDIT: Read this, i think could help...
Only i recommend (if you want to s-off and root your device) to use a build with a sense 2.1

I have not meet this situation。
I suppose it need temporary root permission or goldencard ?? and then DHD can find PD98IMG.zip in sdcard and automatically install it。
Try wiping your phone a few times in row also the cachs. You may have had a corrupted download so try downloading it again. Also cyanogenmod 7 is very stable but I prefer the new virtuous infinity alpha 3 ROM and don't forget to flash the inspire patch after the main ROM it fixes the camera issues as well some other buggs. I am still considered a noob but i've been around the block a few times as well flashed a few different roms with success everytime. If this still does not work reply and ill give you detailed instructs on what to do. Make it as detailed as possible. What you did start to finish. Do your homework too.

THis is an alternative way for the AAHK since it has been removed.
I'm guessing you might have done something wrong while downgrading.
Follow the guide, step by step, never skip anything, no matter how unimportant you believe it to be.
I'm sure you'll be good to go.
Good luck

Hey guys, I just lost my phone and got an htc magic phone from a friend and i would like to download certain apps, but some of them require android 2.1 OS or higher..
is there any way to upgrade the OS from 1.5 to ≥ 2.1? If anyone knows, please post a step by step procedure for the upgrade..
the specs of my htc magic are:

Step one, root.
Step two, custom recovery
Step three, install a rom you like
On android 1.5, universal androot is an easy app to gain root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747598
An old version of rom manager could be used for a custom recovery. If it refuses to work (android 1.5 is very old..) you could install it manually, or use another app like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=acr.recovery.installation.utility
For a custom rom, my biased recommendation for a 32a device like yours is my cm7 rom. Find it it my signature

You are good if you follow the above instructions from tvall.
You can download an old version of Rom Manager from here:
http://www.4shared.com/android/87Z5gzSF/comkoushikduttarommanager.html
tvall, after i flashed the cm7 rom and kernel, then reboot, my htc magic is just stuck at the cm7 animation loop..
any ideas why and/or how to fix this ?
Edit: nevermind, i just skipped the wipe cache, wipe/factory reset and wipe dalvik cache steps before flashing.. now its up and running! thanks heaps tvall!
By the way, that old rom manager doesn't work on my poor old htc magic. I followed some youtube video on how to do flash recovery using RA's recovery instead and that seems to work lol.
though now im stuck without internet access? (no data from network provider)
Check apn settings
Sent from my Evo V 4G using Tapatalk 2
the apn settings seem fine.
I just found out my internet only works if i tick both "data enabled" and "international/national data roaming". im not overseas or anything
is this normal? will i get charged more for using data?
