hboot-1.76.0008 (sapp10000)
cpld-12
radio-3.22.20.17
when trying the different goldcard which probable didnt work, for some reason the radio was not installing when i tried to sappimage the rom file, so the new radio and hboot isnt installed. the sappimage did start the update but the screen had started changing colours and then it went to grey for 30 minutes. in other words its not completely installed. specially the radio update just gets stuck (why?)
although my phone hast the system,userdata etc (files of the first rom (in 3.05 ruu there are 2 roms, rom and rom1)) but the phone has the radio and spl of a different rom.
since i have a 3.22 radio, i was trying the etisalat rom but when i used it in this new goldcard, it gave the reply ''main version is older"
What should i do now?
when is someone going to reply!!?

okay!
heres the problem.
u see in htc europe rom, there are 2 rom files, labelled as rom and rom1. rom has the hboot and radio while rom1 has recovery,system, userdata, boot and splash.
i flashed the rom1 first through hboot because cwrecovery was giving some kind of error. the rom1 got flashed because i had eingineering spl.
i then went to flash the rom file by hboot(the file containing radio 6.35 and hboot). the file got detected and gave the update option.
however at the radio update the screen starts changing the colour, and very slowly reaches grey after, like 5 minutes and stays on gery for 20 minutes! then it goes black for like 20 minutes! not sure what happenes after that because i usually take out the battery!
also since i flashed the rom1 file, i have a different recovery, which does not open and also the phone is stuck in boot-loop.
what can i do?
the phones info is in the above post through!
thanx!
It stucks because you have Spl/radio mismatch!Im not sure but i think this is your problem!And you have security on...Try flashing a RUU higher than your main version with 3.22 radio!It will stuck again at radio update but after restart you will have a good combination and then flash the original RUU.
need 3.05.401.1 HTC Europe test-signed with 3.22 radio

Man, go to repair-shop and ask master for JTAG. Told him that he need restore 1.33.2010 hboot cause your radio is 3.22.20.17
p.s. I don't think that ROM with this anomalous combo hboot/radio exists in the wild life... Even if someone will modify it comply with requirements, he may ask > 50$ cause it is truly black magic))
You still got problems?

I search the net, some posts said, If G1 has flashed with SPL, it cannot update radio again. Otherwise it will turn your G1 into a brick.
I don't know, if I could update radio directly or have to do some other operations.
My G1's voice (My friends always tell me my voice from the phone is not clear, seems in a very noisy environment) is not so good. Radio version seems out of date.
Any suggestions? Thanks very much!

But I still don't know, if I should
A) Remove old SPL-->Flash radio-->Flash SPL new
or
B) Flash radio --> Flash SPL (new)
or
C) Back to RC7(Downgrade) -->Root-->Flash Recovery -->Flash Radio-->Flash SPL -->Flash ROM
which choice is right ?

http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/spl-signed.zip
Do NOT install the "2005" spl.
There is only ONE valid SPL that is better than the one you already have... 0.95.3000 (engineering SPL for ADP1).
The "2005" spl is NOT COMPATIBLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED.
You can update SPL and RADIO in ANY ORDER YOU LIKE, as LONG as you do NOT use the "2005" SPL, which you should under NO CIRCUMSTANCES EVER use.
If you use the "2005" SPL, you might kill your phone!
It is NOT WORTH IT.
There is also NO REASON FOR IT.
Despite some people claiming that it is better, it is NOT, the only notable difference is that it remaps the partitions.
There is NO REASON to remap the partitions.
If you find your /data or /system partitions too small, MOVE SOME DATA TO /cache and symlink to it!
Also note: you may, with the current SPL, write the newest RADIO IMAGE. Unless you *must* change the SPL, you can leave it alone with no ill effects. The SPL will NOT affect voice under any circumstances.
I also suggest upgrading from 1.5 to 1.6.
Finally, the radio image you have installed corresponds to android 1.0. 1.22.14.11 corresponds to android 1.1, 2.22.19.26 corresponds to android 1.5/1.6. In other words, your ROM doesn't match your RADIO.
Dear lbcoder
Thanks very much for the details.
I am new to G1. The ROM installed now is a Chinese version from [hipack dot com]
I will check if the system could work properly after I flashed the Radio.
If not, I will update the ROM as well.
Thanks again for your reply.
Also thanks to evilkorn.

Hi,
I have HTC Magic Vodafone UK version (32b) . A month ago I wanted to install a ROM which required a higher version of radio, and I bricked it
I had it repaired in a shop, but it seems that the guys put the wrong radio. This is what I get in fastboot:
Now I have 3.22 radio (which is only for Magic 32a). The problem now is that I cannot install 32b ROMs because of the radio, and 32a ROMs are also not working (or maybe I am doing sth wrong). The only ROM which is working currently for me is VOdafone 2.2.1 32a.
So, my question is: which ROMs should I be installing now - 32a or 32b?? Should I maybe go again with radio change, and go back to the old one (which is a risky process)
Thanks!
Thread moved to General.
Please pay attention where you post your threads next time.
Sorry, will pay attention in the future
The good thing is, that you have eng spl..
So you have total control over the device,,,
You can flash anything you want..
Just flash a different radio and you should be set :0)
Hey mumilover,
Thanks for the reply.
The thing is that I've already bricked it once when tried to change the radio, so now I'm afraid to do it again and thus trying to find some alternative
Download my fastboot commander from my signature.
Download this radio: https://rapidshare.com/files/455782324/2.22.19.26I.img
Flash it.
Download this recovery: http://rapidshare.com/files/387932919/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
Flash it.
Reboot into recovery and flash whatever rom you like :0)
Good luck.
When I was reading about flashing radios, I remembered pretty long and complicated procedure (downgrade android, wipe, etc.) Is it with your fastboot commander that easy???
I got more than 5000+ users....

Hey, I have just given it a try, but it won't flash the radio. I get the Fastboot connection (it says "Fastboot USB" on the phone screen), but in your app it says that "PRINT OF DEVICE INFO FAILURE - PLEASE CHECK YOUR CONNECTION.
No fastboot device connected."
Any idea what the problem might be?
By the way, I have been using regular fastboot for quite some time, and it was always working flawlessly with my phone.
Seems like its the connection to me, even with s-on on my phone it I still get the device info print off
Which OS do you use?
If normal fastboot commands works, then this tool SHOULD work :0)

I adviced owner to flash 2708 radio and SPL 1.33.0013d from recovery.
After flashing of radio phone became a brick...
Hope guy will manage to unbrick it, but the question is what to do further.
Is it safety to flash radio/spl using your soft of it would be better to use fastboot method described here (I mean Revert to 32B Radio)?
And is radio 2.22.19.26I what we really need?
Which SPL should be flashed after to escape bricking?
Keep the spl...
flash the 2.22.19.26I radio and G recovery from my tool or fastboot.
Then you should be all ok...

Ok, I see. Do you think engineering 1.33.0010 should remain untouched?
But how to flash new 1.33.0013d which is required for many roms with appropriate kernels?
P. S. I've tried your tool on another computer, and still can't get a connection to my HTC Magic ((
It finally worked!!!
Well, nobody told me that I needed to install this HTC Sync software...
OK, so I finally installed 2.22.19 radio, but for this ROM I need 2.22.23 and Death SPL. Is it safe to install those using your tool???
Again, thanks for your time!
Hello, I have a 32A with 1.76.2007 SPL, and 6.35.08.29 Radio, and I simply can't flash the radio. I can flash the SPL just fine, I've flashed it to 1.33.2010 and then to 1.76.2007 with no problems, however, when I try to flash the radio it just keeps saying in the command line "Writing". I've followed this tutorial to the letter: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605239
By the way I tried to flash it to two different radios now, an old 3.22, and the newest 6.35
Thanks in advance, and I hope I'm not making a stupid mistake, since I'm new at this.
Still got the problem?
Can you provide more info or why you are trying to flash a diff radio...
Also, download my fastboot commander from my signature and copy-paste all the device info.
Thanks for answering, and I'm sorry I didn't post why I'm trying to flash a different radio. The thing is most ROMs out there are 3.22 and so I can't install them unless I do that. I used your program and here is what it said:
SPL/hboot version: 1.76.2007.
Radio version: 6.35.08.29.
Main software version: 3.05.401.3.
cid: htc__506.
cpld: 12.
product: sapphire.
mid: sapp10000.
security: off.
build-mode: eng.
If you download the magic 32A version, you will get a special tab.
I will flash a compatible set of spl, radio and recovery.
Try it out and if you get an error, post here what you see in the "actual output".
Thanks a lot! It finally worked! But I still don't understand why it didn't work the other way around. I noticed that when I tried to flash it in the command line, as soon as it said it was "Writing" my phone's screen would turn black, and it didn't when I used your awesome program.
Anyways I highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to flash SPL/Radio.
By the way could you check my other thread? It's also about a problem that's been annoying me very much.
I'm glad it worked out for you :0)
About the other problem, i have no idea :0)
Oh, ok, well thanks a lot anyway
Hi all,
I accidentally flash a orange-...nbh for G1 to restore a MT3G t-mobile 32B. (BAD BAD ACCIDENT!!!)
Now I get stuck with fastboot (S-ON), no recovery and when flashing the correct nbh freezes on radio update.
The radio version is the only thing that seems odd to my but it is just my thoughts... I'm a newbie on Android modding.
mumilover do you believe your approach can help on my case...
Thanks a lot...

You need a matching spl/radio before you can flash anything new...
Could you explain to me how can I match the SPL/Radio. Probably with a special nbh file?
When I try to flash sappimg.nbh it freezes on radio update.
Thanks again for your help

There is no reason I know of why the radio won't flash that isn't due to something more serious.. To the best of my knowledge the few other people that flashed the Orange Dream NBH on a sapphire where able to get into the 1.42.2000 S=OFF SPL and use fastboot flash radio to return to 2708+ radios..
Of course since now you have 1.33.0006 I'm not sure the best way to proceed. (particularly since I don't own the device, and it may be confused with the radio version)
If you can't boot the device and all you have is a S=ON SPL (other than 1.33.0013d) all you can do is flash SAPPIMG.nbh and SAPPIMG.zip files.. preferably find one with an S=OFF SPL or that makes the system boot.. A goldcard will help if the image is from another region (ie not T-Mobile US)
The problem is the mismatching between the radio and spl.
If the offsets are not correct, every radio flash will fail due boundary error.
This problem has been seen on many magic devices with old spl together with new radio and the opposite. I always recommend to fix it by flash the matching spl and then change the entire layout. That approach has been successful every time.
So, to start with the radio - it's for the dream device. According to your thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139 the version nr which the OP has posted should have given him an eng spl, namely the 1.42.2000.
My suggestion would be to reflash the nbh image from the link(orange-1.58.73.2.nbh ) and hope for it to flash spl first. Spl typically have the same size so the offsets will be the same allowing it to complete.
Once he has eng spl, he could flash the right spl/radio/recovery combo and should be good to go.
I try to flash the orange-1.58.73.2.nbh and I got a "Model ID Incorrect" error on verifying signature. I guess my way out is using a goldcard but my phone is useless right now. I looking toward to create one using my PC or a friend's phone.
Any suggestions? Thank you so much guys to help me bring back my phone from the graveyard...
Well... the goldcard is a MUST have. Without it you cannot flash the nbh image.
I'm trying to research how to create a goldcard without the phone but I did not get a procedure to do it... Do you know if I can use any other Android phone regardless the model and the carrier? some said CID numbers relies only on the SDcard you are using and the phone and carrier did no matter at all, but if that is true, why you can't use a program to get it from your sdcard reader? it seems like the only medium to get the number is through an Android phone...
Either way I will try using other android phone from a different carrier... for now is the only choice I got... I will keep you posted with my results...

You can .. if your computers sdcard reader exposes the CID to software.
Unfortunately most USB readers do not expose this value. (some older non USB versions have been known to)
Most HTC phones (and other embedded devices) on the other hand use a more direct interface to the sdcard and can get the value on both android and HTC.
FYI: even with the SDCard I think you will get that error on the oragne NBH.. (I don't think we can get around that one on a s=on SPL) it says that the rom is not for the sapphire.. if it works it is your best bet but I don't think it will.
It's kinda must... referring to how did it happen in the first place!
Hi all,
I created 2 goldcards (after the process I could copy the SAPPIMG.nbh to the SDCard from my PC without any problem), but still I get the Model ID Incorrect when I tried to flash it.
My question will be if you believe there is a problem with the goldcards or definitely as ezterry suggest is a problem beyond the goldcard issue...
Thanks again for all your help...
Goldcard issue :0)
Tomorrow I will buy a new microsd... Kingstone 2GB is what everyone recommends for the job... I will keep you posted with the results...
Hi all, sorry for the delay on the response but I have to order my memory online because I was tired to search it on local store without any luck.
Yesterday I got my new Kingston 2GB memory card, I made it a gold card, put the orange-1.58.7.nbh file on it, rename it to SAPPIMG.nbh and when trying to flash it, it said loading with multiple lines as always does but it did not start with the verification of the image but it just shows me the hboot option again, as it was restarting itself.
Any idea?
Heres my issue...
No rom or recovery rom that works
yes bootslpash screen
yes fastboot with security
I need a solution that involves
a funtional rom
ability to flash to funtionality
I have researched and troubleshooted this problem extensively; to no avail! Even though I should have already, I will donate 20$ for attention and 30$ for solution.

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
solved your problem yet? maybe i may help.
no... i have not solved my problem yet your help would be greatly appreciated
