Hello folks,
I have an old HTC Magic, actually a Japanese HTC-03A. A lovely little phone.
Ideally I'd like to flash it with Ubuntu.
Can't find any images for the Magic, can anyone point me in the right direction?
If it can't be done, I'll just have to root it and flash a nice, clean, fast ROM onto it. I'll let my son play with it.
What do you think, folks? What can I do? Did I post this in the right place, apologies if not.
Thanks a lot.
Talk to you all later.
have you found any roms for the htc magic?

Hello all. I am new to this again. I am in the US Army and have been gone a while. I have a Sprint touch diamond and upgraded my rom to the 2.0 version. I am realy interested in an even better rom, possibly with the wm 6.5 that I saw on youtube. Can anyone point me to the correct ROM for my sprint phone? And is there a tutorial for this somewhere? The HTC download was pretty easy, are they all like that? Thanks.
Mainly all of the roms here are for gsm... Here's a similar thread, follow it
thank you...
Hello there,
I am currently running the MoDaCo rom (which is a lot faster than the stock version from HTC).
Is it possible to run a cyanogen rom on the HTC hero? I have read something about 32A and 32B versions and to be honest: I do not want to brick my phone the first two weeks I have it
Anyone?

i would like to second this, if some chef knows som'tin bout this??
It may be possible in the future but at the time of writing those ROMs won't work on our Hero's so I don't suggest trying it.
When the Hero has been out a bit longer we are likely to see a lot more development for it one here.
Best advice, sit tight.
Hi guys,
I was wondering if I could update the software (cupcake 1.5) of my HTC magic to the one on the HTC Hero. My girlfriend has it and she's always pushing me around because her's look more 'fancy'.
I looked it up on the net but couldn't find anything right away. I even checked youtube and I saw some people running the HTC hero rom (most likely another name but I'm new to this Android thing).
Thanks in advance, Skillandstyle!
There is donut roms for magic. Just check the dev section under magic.
i thought the htc magic had the official sense ui update?
MLIGN made a tut. about it on his website or you can root your phone and try out a hero rom.
Hi all
First post here, read alot though.
I have a magic which was running a 2.1 rom and now running cyanogen 2.2 rom.
Both were slow and now its got to the point where i avoid txting cause the keyboard disappears and doing stuff on my phone as its so slow.
Im looking for solutions to this.. they may come in either a form of recommendation from a magic user with a fast older rom.. but preferably i would like to go back to stock and then maybe sell it.
I lost my original nandroid backup when shifting computers.
But i have another identical magic from my workmate that is untouched that i could make a copy of and place on the slow one if its possible and someone could tell me how.
Semi new to android rom'ing but been in IT for years and now work for Vodafone. So will be able to follow any instructions.
NZ Vodafone HTC Magic 32b
Thanks in advance

Anyone able to help me with this?
Thanks

That phone is just slow in general
On my magic I have amen ra's latest recovery and a rooted version of the official tmobile ota froyo update its somewhere in the androind development part for mytouch. Amen ras new recovery alows you to partition the sd card so you can you can put more swap memory I put 92 and 512. And it also helps if you overclock and manage your running programs.
Sometimes if you don't flash the rom right it makes it run slow too

Hi all,
I am reasonably new to the android scene, having had an iPhone since the day one, my iPhone 4 was recently stolen, and I took the brave decision to replace it with a HTC Desire.
I have just rooted my HTC desire using UnrEVOked, and it was successful.. now I am interested in loading a custom ROM, and after looking around briefly, have noticed that the Desire HD ROM has caught my eye (after seeing a video of it running on the Desire).
I like the extra features that Desire HD has that make the phone more usable in my opinion.
I understand how to load ROMs but I am struggling to find where I can locate this ROM, and does it have to be a version of the ROM specifically designed for the HTC desire?
Any help would be appreciated!
(By the way, I have already attempted to use the "Search" feature of the forum, but it seems the search feature is currently down. "Search is not available at the moment")
Thanks!
the best HD rom currently would be RCMixHD

if you have already rooted your phone with unrevoked clockwork mod should be installed
enter recovery mode and flash the zip file or if you refer a GUI approach use ROM manager
Exactly what I was looking for!
Thankyou very much for sharing your knowledge!
