Hi,

trying to update a bricked VODAFONE Magic from a friend. Until now it drives me nuts.

Here is the situation:

Sapphire PVT 32B ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-10

Radio 3.22.20.17

After trying several roms, none of them seems to work. The device stays in the bootlader forever.

I have only one SAPPIMG.zip file from XDA-devs containing 2.53.707.2_sappimg.zip which has a very basic and limited 1.5 rom in it. The phone boots and is usable, but Market is missing. In About Phone, the phone identifies itself as HTC Magic while it is Vodafone branded. Is this normal ?

And what do I need to do to flash it to a more recent ROM ?

I have recovery 1.3.2H and I can use ADB and fastboot.

Flashing cm-recovery-1.4 doesn't work. No recovery mode. 1.3.2H seems the only one to work.

Thanks for helping me out !

and radio
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
First, it is not bricked. Bricked means NOTHING WORKS !

This phone seems to work fine.

Putting A (1.33.2010 - it's engineering BTW) + B (Radio 3.22.20.17 - it is for 32A !) + C (2.53.707.2_sappimg.zip - again, it's for 32A only) + D (recovery 1.3.2H - you quessed it, it's for 32A) = you have 32B succsessfully turned into 32A.

Now you have 2 options:

- Use 32A ROM's

- Revert back to 32B (both, radio and recovery).

For later search the forum or Google. It's easy.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingwild:
Yes I have flashed Engineering SPL 1.33.2010

Which radio do I need ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingwild:
Okay :D Thanks for the info. How can I revert back to 32B radio and recovery ?

Hiya,

I've recently bought an Orange HTC hero off ebay

Searching around there seem to be several ways to get around the simlock:

i) Buy a RebelSim

ii) Flash to a Non Orange Rom and buy a unlockcode

iii) Unlock CID lock with bespoke serial cable and buy an unlock code

iv) ??

I'm not so keen on chopping my simcard or option 1 would be the way to go?

option 3 seems the least destructive but I've never been great with a soldering iron!!

is there another option (iv?) ive not yet found or your experiences on the above would be helpfull :)

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch General] foxmeister:
(ii) is probably the easiest, but before parting with your cash, check that you can definitely get the code for your device. As far as I'm aware http://www.htccode.com does not have problems with Orange phones anymore as long as you've flashed the ROM to something else.

Regards,

Dave

[HD2 General] nick_manchester:
Ok, in addition to the major SMS Outbox problem (which incidently hasn't happened for several days now), I've noticed two other minor issues related to the messaging:

A few times I've received a message, and then gone to read the message. I tend to use the Phone Keypad for writing messages.

Anyway occasionally (probably one in thirty texts), when I try to write a reply to the message, when typing on the keypad, it writes the numbers instead of the letters. Changing to another keypad and back doesn't resolve it, only when I exit messaging.

Second issue is sometimes I go to rely to a message, and I try to select where is says tap to compose a message, and it takes a good 3-4 seconds before it response to a tap so that I can actually start to write the message.

Anyone else have any similar problems?

I've also had the numbers problem, I thought it was related the SPB or Resco keyboards I'd installed, but after a hard reset and not installing these apps, it's still there...although only very rarely now

Hi Everybody

Thanks to your support and explanation in this forum, i upgraded my Qtek 2020 to WM 6. But now i have problem when i use tomtom 7. During navigation, the screen freezes for a couple of seconds, and then starts to function again. Every few minutes, the screen freezes, and so on. I tried to upgrade radio rom to ver. 1.17, tried different tomtom versions, and also the ATIFIX.cab file, but this doesn't work on Himalaya devices.

I need right suggestions to fix the problem.

Thanks to all.

Regards

Sounds to me like lack of memory or slow sd-card. A 133x works fine!

I finally solved!!!

The problem was the phone section turned off.

When i turn on phone section ok Qtek2020, Tomtom works fine, never freeze and really smooth during navigation.

That's all!!

As my title suggests I am looking for a stable ROM. I currently have yozgatg TouchFLO 3D 2.1.38680.0 VGA. There are simply far too many ROMs in this thread for someone to sift through so I will appreciate any recommendations. I am not looking for something with the latest and greatest modifications but moreso for something that has been tried and tested stability and has good battery life.

I have been out of the loop for too long as I was really into my flashing before, so in the last 6 months I havnt been able to keep up with the trends. If there is anyone that can help me out I will greatly appreciate your help.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Drag-On:
have you made sure your phone is on discoverable mode?

I've paired 2 different nokia bluetooth headphones to my Topaz without problem (as well as 2 Sony Ericsson ones)

"Make this device visible to other devices" is the option you must have checked (at least the first time)

Incase you don't have the manual:

"Clear settings or reset

To delete the pairings from the

headset, switch off the headset, and

press and hold the multifunction key

for over 8 seconds until the headset

beeps twice and the indicator light

flashes quickly."

then, once you're done that, switch your bluetooth on on your phone, make sure it's discoverable, then turn on your headset.

Hey all,

Had my HD2 for about 3 weeks now, while walking yesterday I tripped and fell, this caused the digitizer to break. I have contacted HTC on a quote for repair. Seeing as they quoted 200 euros, I can't afford to have it fixed. I do have the skills myself to fix the device, all I need is a replacement digitizer. After many hours searching I have yet to find one on sale.

The LCD panel underneath is fine it's just the digitizer that has been shattered. Stunningly it does still responds to input, but having small shards of glass in my fingers isn't ideal.

Can anybody here help?

Thanks in advance,

[HD2 General] ihadabadname:
I have been able to find digitizers for other models from HTC on ebay.

But currently there isn't anybody offering a spare HD2 digitizer, Does anybody know how I may be able to get my hands on one?

Thanks for reading,

When I was doing a bit of theming a while ago, I noticed that lots of the drawable folders had references to a landscape Rosie, even though that wasn't being used. Now the 2.1 screenshots have leaked, we can see that there is now indeed a landscape Rosie..

Whilst theming a ROM for the CDMA Hero however, I came across folders in Rosie.apk such as 'drawable-land-800x480'. So could we be seeing a new Rosie device with 800x480 resolution?

edit - maybe it's not a large display device and actually a HD version of the Hero??
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mancsoulja:
There is no such thing as HD on android or win mob devices nor will it exists in the near future, 800x480 dosent even come close to HD, im sure that the said folders are more of a default thing made with future wvga devices in mind :rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pookie1:
I'm not quite sure what you mean by that as the HTC HD2 has the same resolution, 800x480. I'm not talking about 1080p or something if that's what you're trying to get at..

Did you take back the HTC HD from your sig complaining it wasn't really HD?!

They didn't used to be in the roms, they have appeared in later roms. A bit like how there were references to the landscape mode, but they are only getting implemented in 2.1..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mancsoulja:
Exactly the HD isnt HD thats just a brand name, what i mean is the folder Structure is a generic one and with the release of android 2.0 that supports diffrent screen res's HTC are just getting ready for there new range of snapdragon powered wvga android devices :D

[Hero, G2 Touch General] pauliusba:
HD means high definition. And 480x800 on a phone looks damn HD to me.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mancsoulja:
480x800 is no where near a high definition resoulution but more to the point even if someone made a device with a high enough resolution 1200x900 for example it still wudnt be HD unless the screen was interlaced or progressivly scanned which there not anyway lol
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pauliusba:
You don't get what I'm saying. I am not talking about HD As a standard. Because your 1920x1080 may not be as high definition for a tv when the technology evolves. My point was all about pixel density, that wvga resolution is very high definition indeed for a screen this size. So the HD makes sense in device's name.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mancsoulja:
Yeah i understand what your saying and the image quality of wvga devices is of great quality (especially the TD/TP 2 they have the same res of the HD but the slightly smaller screen size really makes for a sharper image) :D lol but it duz my head in that we keep adding the HD prefix to things (Especially gameloft lol) when its just not true Mabe we should call it HSD :confused: lol
[Hero, G2 Touch General] p13:
Wrong, it is progressive. Interlacing would be a monumentally stupid thing to do on a portable device. The only reason it is still here (aside from historic reasons) is to carry higher res on less analog bandwidth.

ALL images displayed on an lcd are progressive in the end. Lcd panels are progressive scan only AFAIK except maybe in rare cases. But that would require two matrices.

Sorry for eventual typos. I typed this on my hero ...soft keyboards suck.

Yes, they ceased trading in September. Most of their products were rebadged HTC machines. When HTC decided to sell machines under their own brand, the middlemen were left high and dry.
