That's how I made the backup, but I think the backup may be bad.After I restore the backup, when I try to boot the phone, it shows the Rogers logo, then freezes at a black screen. So I guess I have to go back to an older backup >.<
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MWeimar:
thats what i wonder to....??

can someone at least get bluetooth headsets to work like in the original ROM?

:confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
do you mean adb when booted, running adb when the phone is on? I haven't tryed that, I

Have only tryed adb when in recovery. As soon as I go into recovery, my phone vibrates, thenvodafone logo comes up, then goes into recovery menu. Once in their, a message pops

On my pc, saying "unrecognized connection" to me, the reason I can't get adb shell to work is coz it keeps disconnecting because the connection becomes unreadable. Does anyone have the same message come up? If so does the adb shell still work?

(Sorry if hard to understand, I'm typing all this on my phone).

Oh can some1 post a link the the 2.7.4 rom. Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] priyaradha:
So I just updated to 2.7.4r2 i did have 2.7.3 before.It just restores the settings right ? Meaning 2.7.3 data does not replace the newer 2.7.4 data does it ?

The youtube app is the exact same app from fatal1y's hero... unless if that rom doesn't have HD support either...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
i did not try the fatal1y's hero.

so i have no idea.

only tried the stock rom and JF rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=538645) so far.

both have the support for viewing youtube vid in high quality.

so far, this version is really fast. my only issue now is youtube viewing.

btw, you guys dun view youtube much on the magic?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mack:
hey,

is anyone running this on 32A without partitioning their sd card? I am quite lazy to partition it so I was wondering whats the performance like without it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
No needs to parition cuz we have enough space so no need for apps2sd... and as far as the swap parition i have explained it so many times so the short answer is just stick with what you got right now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
ok, i manage to create a ext3 extension on my sd card.

but how do I port my apps over and also ensure that all apps are installed on the card in future?

thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mack:
Thanks k4r1m. I just got a little confused since everyone was talking about it. I guess they all have 32B and are discussing it in a 32A thread.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] funfobia:
Yup i know it not fully working but at least on fatal1ty i can use it for A2DP (only A2DP) for my morning jock. I've been trying all HERO rom available for my 32A and it seem to be the only one available. So i was wondering whether other rom cooker can compare the different. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxqc:
Hey all.

Want to install it but I'm a little concerned about speed... All Hero ROMs I tried were slow fatal1ty, JACHeroski 2.7.3,etc..) .. When you say this one is Fast, is it fast when compared to other Hero roms or it's fasr overall ?

Currently using Amon_RAs Hybrid Rom and this is fast IMHO... Will I get about the same speed withi this ROM ?

TY
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
fatal1y'S rom doesn't have youtube HQ option but the first JAChero rom did have the HQ option on my magic And the camera worked properly, it was till I flashed the boot1.img for it, after that I can't get it back, nomatter what hero rom I flash to.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] t-jet:
hi

I installed 2.7.4 yesterday, but I experienced some annoyances with it, for example the screen won't turn or the cam only works in black/white since I woke up this morning (...too late because my magic crashed while sleeping...), restarted the phone with no success. can't remember the other issues. does anyone else have such weird problems? camera also takes 10 secs to start up and is very slow. right now I have the HoFo ROM installed, but I'd like to use a hero ROM again.

is there a big difference between 2.7.4 and 2.7.4r2? what other ROMs can you recommend? with fatality 1.4 my 3g sometimes doesn't work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MCoimbra:
2.7.3 Damage SD card everyday...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] anzorb:
2.7.4r2 is a huge step up from 2.7.4, its 20 times faster, camera works, autorotate screen works, i am not sure if it is using my swap partition but i did not have to install swapper, its fast as is.

The only issue is that i only get E(edge?) not 3G for some reason. Any Ideas?

ohh and the Keyboard does not show up when holding Menu.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hakeem9:
The speed of this ROM is quite nice, especially with a swap running.

One question, is anyone able to get MMS working on this? Using the same APN settings that work on other ROM's I am not able to send or receive MMS messages, they sit in a pending state forever.

Any ideas?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MCoimbra:
I had this problem. Just delete the APN and create a new one with the same settings. It will work ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hakeem9:
Wow that actually worked. I had to delete the mms.it or whatever APN comes pre-installed with the ROM, delete the APN i added myself, re-add my APN and then it worked.

Thanks alot!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] trungvn1790us:
Hi bro,

tks for the great ROM code, but just one thing that i've tested many times and feel unhappy with this ROM is bluetooth issue. The device can only connect to Media profile (playing music with A2DP) and CAN NOT CONNECT TO PHONE profile to use Call functions

Pls give your advices and some update if available

Appreciate and will invite u a big glass of beer! :)

Tks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
Sorry man but there is nothing i can do about that, it's the rom itself and no has been able to get bluetooth working on so it's not just me.

If you need bluetooth really bad i would suggest using a different rom, for example i myself don't even use this rom yet i do test it all the time.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gundamboy:
works like a charm, I love this ROM so far!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MWeimar:
This rises two questions:

1. On Market you can buy Bluex to send and receive files via bluetooth, so it can work? (but not for me with 2.7.4 ROM)

2. Which ROM are you using, and is it one with a working bluetooth??

But any way Nice work..:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
Bluex as an app does work fine, but it will depend on the rom you are using if the bluetooth on it works or not and it needs to be rooted ofcourse and most roms are.

the rom that im using is this but i have modded it to work with 32A(rogers magic) and changed a few things in there suit my own needs and as far the bluetooth i honestly dont know since i dont really use it on that rom so i havn't tested it, try the hofo community rom or Amon_RA's Rav rom pretty sure they got bluetooth working.

And i would just like to say to everyone that i will most likely not be updating this for a little since most of the issues that rom has are caused by the lack of a custom kernel so don't except anything till HTC releases the 32A kernel because then development for the 32A magic will be so much easier, we will be able to have way faster roms with the use of compcache, squashfs, cgroup and what not. the kernel should be released at the end of the month so lets just hope so <.>

thanks,
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] EMF:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
hi k4r1m, you mind sharing your rom for 32A?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
just remember to test your new boot.img before you permanently flash it...just like recovery

fastboot boot boot.img

and if it works

fastboot flash boot boot.img

I dont know if these instructions can be done in Windows...also, check back in the thread for the signing and extract tools.

Has anyone able to tether with this Hero ROM using the "mobile network sharing" option found in Settings, Wireless Controls ??

I can turn it on but it looks like I have an unknown USB device on the computer... I searched Forums and Google for drivers / fix but can't find anything.

TY
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Meleeeee:
is 2.7.4r2 netfilter enabled?

im running 2.7.3 now and wireless tether isnt working because netfilter isnt enabled...it keeps dropping "update your kernel"..

and another question..is 2.7.4r2 faster than 2.7.3? its a bit laggy with me, so im hoping for further improvements ;-)

rogers-core-appl1.apn

Still only E, maybe i need to wipe and install again, or wait for the next revision.. :D

Any other suggestions welcome.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
i havn't seen that in a while, i remember having it on fatal1y's hero rom but when i reflashed the rom it was fine or it could be just some sort of a glitch that occours during certain conditions because its a not bug since everyone doesnt have it...

@anzorb: no clue what do man but yeah try reflashing
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ClintonH:
Thought i'd try this out but want to make sure before I lock my phone up. Does this ROM work on the Rogers Magic? Does it have the proper mods done to just flash? I only ask because it's not listed in Skittleguys Rogers Rom Repository. :)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
Yeah it is for rogers, what do you mean by proper mods?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
When you get a chance to upload it that would be amazing! I have the version from the Rogers ROM repo but I cant get busybox to work...the path does not stay set after closing the adb shell. Also, the incall volume is very low. If you have had better luck than me, which Im sure you did cause i know nothing, I would love to use it.

Thanks again for everything.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ClintonH:
First sentence in Skittleguys tread.

This thread was made to house all the ported roms that work with the Rogers Magic (PVT32A) so that people won't need to go routing though the original threads so much. These roms all have modified boot.img, wlan.ko, apnconfig.xml, and possibly some other tweaks to sweeten the pot.

I'm going to say those mods.:) If it works great I'll try it out, thanks.;)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
I did the same and it worked fine. This one just isn't keeping the path set. I figured I could just pull the init.rc and push it back but it won't let me write to the / folder and I dont have the understanding required to install it in the image without it being on the phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:

I'm also having caller id problem. I'm trying to avoid reflash because I don't want to setup everything again. But I heard there is a way to restore the user's data (userdata.img) using nandroid? Can anyone tell me if there is a fix for this caller id issue or I really have to reflash? If reflash is the only way, what is the procedure to restore user's settings... thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
I havent tried it. I guess I could...I would need to format the card and stuff. I dont see why we need it though.

My caller ID was being odd too when I was running this ROM. If you want to restore your userdata after flash, heres how:

-Make sure your SPL is one of the engineering ones (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=529019)

--Be careful flashing the SPL and do it properly, read the thread and DO IT PROPERLY

-Before you reflash the ROM do a nandroid backup and put the backed up data.img somewhere where you can easily access

-Turn off your phone and boot into fastboot

-from the command line (on the PC)

fastboot flash userdata data.img

Reboot the device and all your old settings and apps should be there. I dont think you should mix data.img between roms, especially between Heros and cupcake builds...too much incompatibility.

Hope this helps

Here it is:

http://briancrook.ca/magic/CyanogenMOD_v3.6.8r2_32A_rogers_bcrook.zip

Busybox is working, wlan is working, and call sound volume is normal. I haven't done anything else, basically just repackaged it with a different boot.img and added /data/busybox to the init.rc file (not sure if this did anything but busybox on the 32A version of Cyan's ROM from the Rogers ROM Repo didnt work for me). This is entirely Cyanogen's work with instructions from Amon_RA...and whoever migrated it to 32B.

If you find anything of note while using it let me know, not sure if I can do anything, but I can try. Also, please let me know if apps2sd works...I havent tested it and I know K4r1m was trying.

Uploading this from my phone used up like 5% of my battery! lol.

Alright thanks, just looked at the difference between this and fatal1y's bluetooth and all i got right now is that the bluetooth services that are ran at very start of the boot are ban ran with root access that is in this rom, but not in fatal1y's... i will change that and try to find something else different since i have no way to testing bluetooth i'm going to have to upload it for you guys to test...
