im using Paragon and every time i try to create partitions i get the message can't create partition on sd card all primary slots are occupied. I even tried using parted on the G1 and it wouldnt let me. I cant figure it out why it wont let me create partitions.

You can't create more than 4 primary partitions, are you trying to?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
when you used parted via the recovery console, did you use print and rm x (substitute the partition numbers from print) to remove the partition

yes, and im just want to create the standard 3 partitions.

mkpartfs primary linux-swap 7700-7732 [or 7700-7764 if u want 64mb swap]

print [shows u whatcha got now]

when it says End? type in the last of ur linux-swap either 7732 or 7764 so..

7732 or 7764

print [shows final setup]

quit [exits parted so u can upgrade from ext2 to ext3]

upgrade_fs [this command will handle the ext2 to ext3 upgrade] and then u should be good to go, try it i promise u it will work.

good luck, veritasaequita
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MvP77:
ive done this already, didnt work.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamPI:
From parted in recovery console.

You start parted in interactive mode working on your sd card with

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

then you can put in the commands.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] teddy_ballgame3:
this isnt a major problem, just something that gets rather annoying. 50% of the time when i scroll to my screen with the twitter widget or weather widget (dont know if its the same for other full screen widgets) i need to refresh them. i dont mean that the data is old, its just blank and shows no data. the widget stays blank until i click the refresh button. it would be nice if the widget would show something...even if i had to click refresh to update it...those blank widgets are kind of annoying.

anybody else experience this or know a work around? i am using modaco 1.51 on a mytouch but this problem has shown up on a bunch of other roms as well.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freedonkey:
Hi,

I feel very bad asking but can you please help me with my Magic(32A) - Rogers.

Here is the story,

I bought the phone on ebay and the seller indicated that he rooted the phone before he sold me. So I thought okay as its rooted I can go to fast boot and just apply update.zip. So I did the below

1. switched off the phone

2. pressed home + power on and went to fast boot

3. did clean swipe

4. applied update.zip

It applied the custom rom(CyanogenMod 32a) and after that I am stuck on Roger's boot-up screen. So after this I removed my battery and I tried to going to fastboot and clicking Nandriod v2.1.1 restore and I get this error "E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblkop1". After that I did wipe and tried to apply restore but can "Error running nandriod restore. Restore not performed".

Can you please advise me of any options I have to restore my magic back.

Thanking you

FD
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ClintonH:
If you where not flashing the SPL you "should" still be ok if you can get into fastboot.

If you can just try to apply the ROM again, you might want to download another copy or different ROM (Hero maybe).

do me a fav and power on holding down the vol down. see if you go into fastboot. if you do then you are not bricked. if so, see what your radio and spl is plus check if your (s) is off. if so you are rooted and you flashed the wrong board rom. if its on then your seller lied and you are not rooted. if so fallow the rooting guides that are posted here. if you need ne help just pm me and i will apply my skills the best i can. i want all to be rooted and experience the true right of freedom. lol. fosho. . . .

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freedonkey:
Thank you rocking_mod I was able to restore my phone. Here is what I did

1. downloaded HoFo mod to renamed it to update.zip and copied it to SD card

2. used a recovery img and did a fast boot and loaded the img

3. after the reboot did a clean wipe

4. loaded the HoFo rom from the recovery mode.

And finally now the phone works again. Enough of action for one day.

Thanks again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ronni.rasmussen:
Congrats!

Always great to see when someone bring his mobile back to live :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mr_raider:
I'm guessing the ROM you downloaded was not compatible with your phone. As a side note, do NOT apply the Rogers update ontheir web site. It will upgrade your SPL to the dreaded perfect version.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jhlicc:
I got the same error when I first apply the hofoion108.zip. I happened to press apply again somehow, and it had no errors at the second time. My phone can start with that rom later on.

3. after the reboot did a clean wipe

4. loaded the HoFo rom from the recovery mode.

The HoFo mod and which recovery image should i use and where to get it ?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kanttii:
I also "soft-bricked" my Magic when installing a new ROM. I had wrong radio and didn't wipe before trying to install - all I was left was the HTC boot splash.

I was then, after a few days of reading & thinking, able to restore the device! I had bought it used so I had no warranty.

I used ADB to check out if the device was alive or dead. I wiped everything that was left (kernel, boot, system and userdata) and flashed new radio that would work with CM5/6. After that I flashed Amon_RA 1.71 Recovery, a 1.6 Donut ROM, gapps and new kernel. It worked! After that (for a month) I've been playing with CM6 nightlies and RC's.

If you don't want root capablities, just the original ROM, there should be good info on that. But if you do, I would recommend to follow CyanogenMod instructions from their wiki - they're helpful and easy to follow.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NaDaBrAvItChKa:

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NaDaBrAvItChKa:
Hey again Kantii,

I am sorry i am bit newbie, I figure out my phone is still alive sthoughout ADB as u did, but i don't know for sure how to:

1- I wiped everything that was left (kernel, boot, system and userdata)

- I actuall wiped it after i turned the phone on with Home+off buton, does that inclued kernel and system wipe ?

2- flashed new radio that would work with CM5/6

- CM = Cyanogen Mod ??? which of these files u recomend to me ? (Both radio and CM5/6 ?)

3- I flashed Amon_RA 1.71 Recovery, a 1.6 Donut ROM, gapps and new kernel

- Is Amon_RA 1.71 Recovery compatible with any HTC MAgic ???

I am really newbie about all this so I would appreciate all details! :|

thanks a lot for everything so far anyway :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kanttii:
Sorry for long time no reply! I had not checked my mailbox!

You should wipe them in fastboot:

1. Turn your phone on by pressing back + power until you are in fastboot & see the skating droids. Another method to do this is turning the phone on by pressing volume down + power and then the back key.

2. Connect the device to your pc (make sure you see FASTBOOT USB on the phone display) and run CMD

3. type "fastboot devices" and check if your phone is plugged in correctly and you see the device ID.

4. Now you can wipe them correctly with fastboot:

4.1 type "fastboot erase [system/cache/userdata/boot/kernel/recovery all separately]" (without brackets etc, they are here to make reading easier)

4.2 Download:

radio http://www.theandroidkitchen.com/fi...es/?download=Radio_HTC_PVT_32A_3.22.20.17.img

SPL http://briancrook.ca/android/3.22/hboot-1.33.2005.img

recovery http://rapidshare.com/files/387932922/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H-cyan.img
​

4.3. Move the downloaded files to C:\ (and if you want, rename to Radio.img and Hboot.img and Recovery.img) so it is easier to use them. After that type "cd.." in cmd repeatedly until you are in C:\

5. Now you should be able to flash the radio, SPL and recovery images:

5.1 Type "fastboot flash radio Radio.img"

5.2 Type "fastboot flash hboot Hboot.img"

5.3 Type "fastboot flash recovery Recovery.img"

5.4 In each step wait until fastboot says it has finished - if you won't, you have to start everything again or may brick your device.

6. Now in your phone press menu to power down it. Then boot again to fastboot to confirm you flashed correctly:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2005

RADIO-3.22.20.17
​

7. Now power down the device again and boot to recovery by pressing home + power.

7.1 In recovery, check that it works correctly (no lag, no crashes, functions work properly)

8. Now you can install CyanogenMod 6 and enjoy fast FroYo on your Magic :)

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Upgrading_from_CyanogenMod_4.2_to_CyanogenMod_5/6

Good luck and hopefully you can restore your device!

Not to thread hijack, but these instructions look well suited to my situation. At step 4.1 I get the error "FAILED (remote: not allow)". How to solve?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kanttii:
Sorry, but 32b is out of my area :(

Try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=755903

After that, test if you can get to fastboot or hboot (fastboot: back + power, hboot vol down + power). Then report back and search the forum for further help on restoring your device with new SPL & radio & recovery & ROM :)

Otherwise, if these won't work you could try JTAG.

Hope this helps,

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exion:
Dear all,

When looking at the recent HTC Hero update firmware released from HTC i was curious to why they had included adb.exe and fastboot.exe in the upgrade program, so I started looking into this. Basicly I made replacement tools for adb.exe and fastboot.exe that simulated the behavior of a phone to be on the safe side.

From this session I learned two things. First of all we can upgrade the rom.zip via both OSX, Linux and Windoze. Secondly there is a special boot mode called oem-78 which enabled RUU bootloader mode.

Some other notes also is that my bootloader was delivered with factory hboot version 1.76.0007, but even with this bootloader while in RUU mode the bootloader does not seem to check signature when trying to boot cm-hero-recovery.img. It crashes on boot tought, but this seems to be another way in for booting unsigned images...

Another interesting note is that my device was factory programmed with firmware 2.73.751.4, while the upgrade released yesterday is 2.73.405.5.

This is the resulting log from what the ARUWizard is actually doing.

I did not investigate futher after fastboot flash zip rom.zip, so there might be more needed to do after this, so proceed with caution if you want to try this.

# Get list of attached devices
$ adb devices

# Check battery power for detected device.
$ adb -s <SN> shell cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity

# Get current firmware version.
$ adb -s <SN> shell getprop ro.build.description

# Reboot into bootloader with RUU mode enabled.
$ adb -s <SN> shell reboot oem-78

# Check if device is is disconnected from usermode
$ adb devices

# If not present any more, check via fastboot
$ fastboot devices

# If detected, check if in RUU mode
$ fastboot -s <SN> getvar boot-mode

# If mode returns RUU, start the upgrade by erasing cache
$ fastboot -s <SN> erase cache

# Upload rom.zip file and flash
$ fastboot -s <SN> flash zip rom.zip
