Ok, so I have spent hours trying to get this fixed and am just not having any luck. I'm sure the information is right in front of me, but nothing I am trying is working.
I updated my friends HTC Mytouch 3G to Stock 2.2.1 using a thread from here(i forget which one) and rooted using one click.
He now wants to install a different ROM such as cyanogenmod, however, now I cannot seem to get a recovery installed.

Just use ROM manager to reinstall the recovery. If your previously installed a custom ROM though, you should already have a custom recovery installed.

I thought we had already tried the Rom Manager, I'll give it another go.
Just to clarify though, the only thing I did before was upgrade to the stock 2.2.1, and rooted the phone. We didn't install any custom roms.

Hi,
I have rooted my HTC Android Donut 1.6 with Goldcard method yesterday, because simpler method wasn't working for me (It was a lot of work and lots of info to consume for first timer, wheew...). So I was back to Cupcake 1.5. Today I updated my recovery ROM to recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G, because old recovery ROM wasn't loading (Home+Power got stuck at Vodafone screen).
After that I downloaded TMUS-32B-Froyo-CM6Remix from the forum and tried to flash it through recovery mode, everything went fine, but after rebooting device wouldn't go past Vodafone screen. I tried wiping out and reflashing, tried few other ROMs, but nothing helps, same problem. I spent 4 hours trying to figure out WTF and frustration is kicking in... Please, could somebody help me out?

What were your first specs?
I really don't know. I never bothered to write them down, because I didn't expect to get to this point following tutorials, that everyone uses.
Make sure your flashing a 32b rom and did you wipe everything first
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I only tried to install 32B ROMs and always wiped out data before flashing. I even tried wiping out through fastboot and cmd.exe with command "fastboot wipe system -w".
So many views in this thread and no helpful answers. So, no one knows how to fix this? I would really be satisfied if I could at least revert it back to original OS and wouldn't touch it anymore. It's driving me crazy...
It took me whole efing day, but I finally solved the problem... I was searching google for this "SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32B ENG S-OFF H" and found some german forum. Some guy had similar problem, and had a solution for it. Now I'm back on Cupcake 1.5. Most important thing is that, I'm able to boot device.
So, could anyone suggest what steps should I take to not get in same position? What rooting path (tutorial) should I take and what precautions?
Now I'm on:

Make sure you flash the recovery for Magic and not MyTouch.
Place your custom rom on the root of your sdcard.
The reboot to recovery, make a nandroid backup just in case and then install your custom rom.
Simple as that.
OK i know then but i can't install recovery please give me a guide how to do it cause when i press "ClockworkMod Recovery" at the top of ROM Manager nothing happens..

When you select Flash ClockworkMod Recovery a window should pop up that says
Confirm Phone Model.
You should now have three options:
HTC Dream (GSM) <--- Use this for G1
Ion/Mytouch (GSM) <--- Use this for 32b devices
HTC Magic (GSM) <---- Use this for 32a devices

Since these are your specs:

You need to select "HTC Magic (GSM)"
Afterwards select Reboot to recovery.
If it still doesn't work then to a hard reset (aka battery pull) and try again. Sometimes you have to try it a couple times to get it to work.
Does the clockworkmod recovery detect what radio/spl the phone's running? There should be two versions for the 32A Magic, if you ask me: old radio (3.22) and new radio (6.35), as they use different partitioning schemes and need different recoveries.
I just soft reset and still the same, when i press "Flash clockworkmod recovery" it comes like a little black "progressbar" and a little load circle over "Flash Clockworkmod Recovery" for like 2 seconds and then it dissapears and nothing more.. I've got v2.5.0.4 and i got it from 4shared.com cause i don't find it in the market.. And i tried many other versions from 4shared and it's the same with all of them..
Please? ..
Use my guide (check my signature).
You will find all the needed files and steps.
Just skip the root part since you already got root.
After doing custom recovery, flash any good rom for the 32A device with new radio, e.g. RCmagic v.6
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778083
Yes saw that guide before but i think it's too complicated and i can't understand 50% if the guide.. please anyone?

please help
These are the steps
1. root with androot (seems you have done that)
2. install ROM manager
2.1 flash clockworkmod 2.5 (option at the top in the ROM manager app)
3. install ROM
3.1 require downloading ROM provided in ROM manager, or manually copying .zip file to root of sd card and choose "install zip from sd card" in ROM manager
make sure the ROM is for 6.35 radio (it's told in the title)
Ya but the problem is ROM Manager i cant download ClockworkMod Recovery when i press Install Clockwork..... nothing happens just a little progressbar at the top that dissapears after like 2 sec.. i tried many versions from www.4shared.com
OK... we try again.
You have a working system, and my suggestion is to LEAVE IT the way it is - you clearly way over your head.
If you don't want to stop now, then you have to do the following step:
----flash custom recovery----
To do that you have many options which some already have been suggested for you...
In my guide you will also see a VERY easy solution.
I don't know why you have to make it hard for yourself.
Just do only step 5 and 7 from my guide.
That's the solution, but if you find that to be hard, then you WILL MESS UP YOUR DEVICE!
Take my suggestion and leave your device as it is... you do not have the required capabilities!
So I was "flashing" a new ROM via ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.07 earlier on my phone, and the battery was near dead, so I decide to plug it in. I didn't bother to think/realize it was plugged into the USB port on my computer, and as I did so, the installation stopped and the phone turned off. I turned it back on, to find the "MyTouch 3G" green splash screen either stuck and the phone eventually turns off, or it loops, and the phone keeps rebooting. I've tried flashing flashing the ROM again and some different ROMS I believe, with no luck. Yes I can get to the recovery screen and I can get to hboot/fastboot. Any direct troubleshooting would be very much appreciated. I don't really care what ROM I have on my phone at the moment, I just need something that works. My old blackberry is missing several keys and the rest barely work, so it would be nice having this one back up and running I've searched other threads and other forums with no luck so far. PS I don't have a Nandroid backup...thought I did, guess not though.

Most roms require the new radio and spl that came with the froyo update. You have the radio, but you need the 1.33.0013 or 1.33.0013d spl.

You need a few things.
1. goldcard
2. A sappimg.zip with a higher version than what you have with an Eng spl. (Preferably for 32b)
3. Time, patience
4. Luck
All of these are easy to find or get besides time, patience, and luck
Im currently looking for sappimg.zip that contains the required criteria. I will post after flash attempt...
thank you
forgot to mention
I forgot to mention a common occurance since I lost custom recovery and custom rooted rom, ect.
the "goldcard-sappimg-flash" process freezes or hangs at [4] SYSTEM during the unzipping portion
As you have MT3G v1.2 / Fender - it is too hard to restore your phone after your faulty actions. You bricked your phone, when flashed inappropriate hboot and radio

That post seems to be talking about mismatched radio and spl. His match, but are the wrong ones. He should be able to flash a sappimg.zip to get an Eng spl and fix from there
Ironically, the thread you have suggested is the first thread I followed to configure my device for the "carz" latest custom rom.
Is there a way around the "unzipping hang" that happens during system partition portion of RUU_Sapphire_Rogers_WWE_3.05.631.7_R_release_signed_NoDriver flash? I have also tried the goldcard method with extracted rom.zip of the mentioned RUU rom with same result.

Yeah, but solution is same. Sure, he can start from step 2, cause he has combo without mismatch between hboot and radio already.
And yes, should flash 2.53.707.2 to get special combo with eng spl and then return to stock.

I was having problems rooting my Rogers HTC Magic+. I used this method and it worked like a charm to get root, Eng SPL. After that I was able to flash custom recovery and ROMS.
The ROM in my Signature works really well.
Flash the original "RRU", then root with androot.apk from market, install rommanager from market and flash recovery, reboot recovery and flash the ENG spl

1. Relocked the bootloader in fastboot using: fastboot oem lock.
2. Download misc-edited.img
http://www.4shared.com/file/M7NfPvFO/misc-edited.html
3. Copy misc-edited.img to sdcard
4. With Rom Manager installed type this in a terminal emulator.
# /data/data/com.koushikdutta.rommanager/files/flash_image misc /sdcard/misc-edited.img
5. After that use the stock-sappimg.zip. Rename it to sappimg.zip and copy it to the sdcard.
http://www.4shared.com/zip/CgyRRX4O/stock-sappimg.html
(stock android 1.6 sappimg for the mytouch 3g 3.55mm)
6. Turn off the phone and then press volume down + power button until bootloader shows. It should pick up the sappimg.zip and flash it.
7. Root with UniversalAndroot_1.5.3.apk (disable antivirus before download it)
http://www.4shared.com/android/ay4Js6MY/UniversalAndroot_153.html
8. Install ROM Manager 4.4.0.6 and flash a recovery.
http://www.4shared.com/android/87Z5gzSF/comkoushikduttarommanager.html
9. Reboot the phone.
10. Download radio 2.22.28.25 and flash it through recovery like any zip file.

Thanks, this is a tricky device and I don't have a clear idea in how to accomplish that in a safe environment. Do you think it's worth the chance? What are the practical benefits in doing so? For now I only know one bonus using ENG SPL in this device and that is erasing everything from fastboot (for that I use superwipe) but flashing still not possible, all other good commands are still excluded.
Please, make me wrong and make me a gift with your guidance.

Heh, I was just joking. What you really get with S-OFF and an ENG SPL are more ways to fix things and more ways to break things.
With S-OFF, the phone won't check the signatures of things you flash using HBOOT or fastboot, so you can get the phone to flash something that's been modified... but you can already do that if you have a custom recovery.
With ENG SPL, you can change just about every setting in the phone and access all of the fastboot commands without getting "remote not allow"... But, again, most of the things that you'd want to do (flashing a custom ROM) can be done with the custom recovery.
And, if I remember correctly, if you use an ENG SPL on a myTouch 1.2, you lose half of your available RAM, at least until you go back to a magic SPL.
I suggest making your life easy and not doing any of these things

That's what I thought too, better leave it unTouch. Thanks for your help.
Yes, using anything but 1.33.0013(d) spl and a newer radio will decrease available ram (by 18mb on 32b, and half on 1.2), and will break headphone Jack and other stuff on the 1.2 until you flash back.
Is that my misc-edited btw? just checked md5sums, seems to be. glad to see someone actually made use of it. you now have all the benefits of a goldcard, without going through the complicated process of making one.
Also, roms can probably be easily updated to support 1.33.0014 ), most likely a 1 line edit to the updater-script
Pmerced, could you dump your current misc partition for me? I have never had the opportunity to look at what happened to my edits after an update.

You can't flash from fastboot on this device unless you have an eng spl.
The normal process of getting a custom rom on the dream/sapphire is first rooting your stock rom, then flashing a recovery from there. Then you update radio/spl as needed and flash a rom.
I have never messed with the 1.33.0014 spl, but from what I've heard, it gives no benefit, just headache.
