this is damn cool... i did it step by step and it worked like a charm.

I can confirm that it worked using the 2GB sd-card that came with the device.

At point 9 - copy the files to sd card and rename them to sappimg.zip

I have to mention that all data will be erased! So I didn't actually get the backup part at point 9 that backs up the files from the sappimg in my opinion.

I've flashed only the 2.53.707.2 ROM... don't know what the other one does.

I have copied the update.zip files directly on the gold SD card. No format or anything after the sappimg update. I now have several update_xxx.zip files on the card and checking them out.

Mine was a HTC Magic bought from US. Initial config:

Sapphire PVT 32A Ship S-on H

HBOOT 1.33.0010 (SAPP10000)

CPLD 12

RADIO 3.22.20.17

Build 2.53.707.2

After update it is showing:

Sapphire PVT 32A ENG S-off H

HBOOT 1.33.2010

Still no Google apps on the device but will try to put the Hero on it :D. Or another Magic Rom.

Thanks to all of you who made it possible. There is no purpose in having an open source system on a locked device!

1. Step 9 Flashes 2.53.707.2 which is Engineerings SPL v1.33.2010

2. Step 9 then flashes 2.16.707.3 which is NON-Perfected stock SPL v1.33.0009

3. Step 10 does a Nandroid backup.

4. Step 11 again reverts back to 2.53.707.2 which is Engineerings SPL v1.33.2010

Is flashing to 2.16.707.3 required for taking a Nandroid backup??

If flashing to 2.16.707.3 is not required can someone update the original steps to avoid confusion?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] spatali:
Asish i have told you, im on 2.53.707.2, and im rooted you dont need 2.16.707.3(imperfect spl), its better to have a Engg spl 2.53.707.2, stick with it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] acidburn89:
Please try to follow the guide to the point....

If you just want the Engineering SPL, you can stop at that particular point, and stay with the official ROM.

I can tell you that if you have a Nandroid backup, there is no chance of bricking your phone. In fact, if you want to you can backup your current ROM with Nandroid.

The first ROM is a test ROM, which gets the security OFF. The second is a shipping ROM with a non-perfect SPL.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] acidburn89:
The 2.16.707.3 ROM is not required for taking the backup. You can actually take a Nandroid backup of any ROM. But why I took the backup after flashing those two ROMs was because both of them are official ROMs. And you haven't yet begun messing with the SPL. So, it's a safe middle ground. That's why the backup....

How can I change my mss size. I have set it to 300kb but it resizes all images I send to around 22kb. I want the images to have a size of 200kb.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_milkman:
What network are you on??

I get the same problem and I'm with 02. I can send mms fine (300kb) to other networks but I only receive tiny icon sized mms.

I have heard that it might have something to do with the device not being property supported on the network so 02 send the smallest picture to the device with incomming mms...

I'm not sure that its the reason.... I but it could be!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ovek:
It is the reason :) if you use a unsupported phone on o2 the network defaults to the smallest mms size they can.

The only way around this is by spoofing your mobile id of a supported mobile however you can't do this on android (I think...).
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syklitengutt:
Hmm. Im in norway and the network is tele2.

Hmmmm.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sveintore:
I doubt that the network has anything to say..

the_milkman: If you make a new message and add one picture.. How big is it then?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syklitengutt:
I can take any image, send it, the phone automatic reesize it to around 20kb.

I want this to be 200 kb.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sveintore:
Same here.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gerard69:
my provider told me, that the limit depends the network. Either 200 or 300 KB. Bigger MMS are not delivered....
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sveintore:
We know that..

What we want to know is how to get the phone to use the 200-300kB, not only 20-30kB when sending one image..
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fllex:
i don't know if it's posted before, i searched but din't find anything

yesterday i took some pictures, and suddenly i noticed that the led of the flash was blinking. compare it to the amount of light the led from a pc produces when accessing disc.

when i turn of my phone, it keeps blinking.. when i take out the battery it stops. but from the moment i put the battery back in it starts blinking again.

im "scared" the led will burn + my battery life will be much lesser. any suggestions?

I can't find anyone on the high street who do anything above a class 4, and looking online I find loads of people who have items listed, but down as "out of stock".

I've already been bitten with ebay, so please don't suggest that. (Bought a "class 6" Micro SD from a retailer with almost perfect feedback, card arrives, completely unreliable, crashes my Magic, files go corrupt, etc, i.e. the card was a POS).

Where are other UKers getting their class 6'es from?

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megaoptimus:
Hey folks...I'm been reading and re-reading various guides and pretty much anything I can get my hands on since I'm new here. Going to be getting a US g1 next week and am trying to get a clear roadmap of what I need to do to root, flash, etc. I'm pretty clear on what needs to happen except for the recovery image thing...maybe it'll make more sense when I'll actually start doing stuff. In what part of the process does one install the recovery image (I see a lot of folks with cyanogen's 1.4) to the SD? Lets say I have the phone rooted and have the hardspl applied. Are most of these recovery images included in the newer rom builds? I'm not entirely clear on what the exact function (aside from what the name implies) these images serve during the whole flashing process and beyond during day to day operations.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol4413:
Heres what to do:

Root

Upgrade from rc29 to cupcake

Update radio

Install 1.4 recovery

Install hard spl

After that u can flash just about anything
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megaoptimus:
Excellent, thanks very much dude :-)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
Recovery is generally not included on a ROM update. The recovery image is what you get to when you press Home + Power

Its where you apply all the custom updates, and if your like me, you'll see it practically everyday, so you want it to be good :P
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] CuteCutie:
Hi, I have been looking at getting a TP2 in the UK but they seem to be gold dust at the moment (as evident by a few other posters here complaining that T-Mobile and O2 are currently not stocking the phone due to "similarity with iPhone, N97, etc".). Anyway I am thinking of buying it on eBay and as I might be heading to the states soon, I was thinking of getting the TP2 in the US, unlocked. But I am not sure if the networks are compatible for use on O2 network in the UK. Apologies in advance for the ingorance...! Any advice would be helpful. Cheers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mcspikesky:
Go Vodafone. Far better customer service than o2. Was a loyal o2 customer for about 5 years and was sick of not being able to understand indian accents on customer support. Gave up went to vodafone, got TP2. Profit.

As for the bands I am unsure. Just my input about netwroks. Sorry if it wasnt what you wanted.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
I believe that that T-Mobile US version is compatible and the AT&T Version (which isn't out yet) definitely is. None of the US versions have front cameras, though. You will also need to find someone with AT&T that will request the unlock code for you (unless you find it unlocked on eBay).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] CuteCutie:
Thanks for your quick response!

I tried going via Vodafone but the TP2 is currently only available to business customers. And because I have only moved house last month they rejected my application (didn't pass their credit check, apparently, despite having not missed a single credit payment, ever, in my life...). They did say I can apply again in 3 months, but I don't think I can wait that long, as I've been eye-ing the TP2 for like 3 months, waiting for my O2 contract to end!

I hear that the TP2 in the states are getting a regular 3mm plug for audio, which is a plus, but loses the front camera... hmm, trade offs! But at the risk of them incompatibility... perhaps a UK version is in order...

yep go to MPD get a unlocked unbranded with a voda contract thats what i did £25 for the phone and 750 mins 250 text unlimited internet for £33 a month
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hake101:
Thirding MPD, 25 quid contract 18 months + web and walk.

Paid £50 for the phone. This gets a pristine unlocked oem phone which can be invaluable later on when the roms etc start coming out!

As far as the bands go- Im pretty sure you will be fine- if you have a look at this list:

http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/com...[0]=3478&phones[1]=2879&phones[2]=1590&area=2

It compares the Euro TP2 with the US touch pro and a sidekick (which should give a fair indication of what bands are used)

This site gives the bands and coverage for a load of networks over the pond so you should be able to check if you will get service:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
AT&T's HTC phones with 3G all have 2100MHz, I am sure the Tile 2 (Touch Pro 2 for AT&T) will also. This means it will work with European 3G as well as AT&T 3G.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
I don't know about the AT&T version working in Europe. According to statements here and elsewhere the AT&T band, despite being classified as 2100mhz is slightly different from the rest of the world's 2100mhz bands, making it incompatible with them (I can't testify to this, it's just what I've read).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
Thats the T-Mobile version with the different 2100MHz. It has 1700MHz and 2100MHz, one for download and one for uplink. The European 2100MHz is 2100MHz for both downlink and uplink. The 2100MHz included on AT&T handsets is the European 2100MHz and not the T-Mobile version (which is referred to as 1700MHz to get around confusion).

The T-Mobile version's specifications list 1700MHz/2100MHz. I do not know if they are referring only to their bands where one is downlink and one is uplink or if they mean 1700MHz (1700MHz/2100MHz) AND European 2100MHz. I would bet that it includes European 3G but I am not positive.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
Sorry, my bad. I get those companies mixed up :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] CuteCutie:
Yes I have been worried about the whole slightly different band and therefore it may or may not work in Europe!

I am having trouble with phone contracts at the moment because I have just moved home so my credit rating is completely annhilated and it just takes too long for the credit company to sort it out. In the end I have used eBay and bought a Vodafone branded TP2. I am sticking with O2 simplicity SIM at the moment as a rolling 30 day contract. I've not had too much trouble with O2 customer service, I always seem to get non-Indian, English speaking folks, but retention line was unprepared to make any offer at all which baffled me! :p

Anyway, onto the exciting (and somewhat scary prospect!) of getting to grips with Hard SPL and custom Roms!

PS, sorry At0mAng I got your message too late! I was thinking of California.
