Hi, I installed the Radio_HTC_PVT_32A_6.35.10.18.img and hboot-1.76.2007.img and all went well, but when I came to go back into the recovery mode it will shut the phone down and restart everytime and I can't navigate in the recovery menu. I get to move the trackball up and down for about 3 seconds then it will restart, even if i don't enter recovery mode it will restart????? I Have a HTC Magic 32A

I quote this man!

I appreciate this new "more clear calling" radio.

But I don't find a way to make wired theter working..

I tried a few roms and noone has it working..

No problems with the Wifi tether app, but it burns my Magic after some minutes of use :(

Thanks for any replies!

If I make a nandroid backup of a 3.22 radio and rom, can I restore it after flashing the new 6.35 radio and rom?

Or do I first have to downgrade radio before doing nandroid restore?

Why should I flash a new radio rom or SPL? What do I get instead?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] asero:
You should flash the new radio/spl if the ROM you want requires it (best example: cursorsense). The official Sense UI stock ROM update requires it too. Several users have noticed improved signal reception upon upgrading. As for me, I didn't notice it.

As a side note, I've been switching between old and new radio many times when testing different ROMS and I just noticed that when I'm on the new radio, my phone internal storage is very low compared to the old radio. I have 100+ apps installed right now (old radio) and I still have 160MB free. I'm not using Apps2SD here. I guess it's because of the new radio memory requirement. I've read it somewhere but I can't find it. I think it's the same reason the new radio can't be flash on 32B.

problem after follow process on page 1

I had a Rooted Magic 32A with Eng SPL (don't know which version), but I recall I had the danger SPL and had to go through a weird process to get it to root properly. Anyway, i had hero rom on my magic and tried to upgrade the radio and 1.76.2007SPL

using the fastboot method since I already had a older version of recovery ROM 1.3.2H.

and after rebooting, I keep getting a black screen with HTC and then it flashes and reboots to the same black screen with HTC over and over again.

I did a nandoird backup before i began.

The phone goes to fastboot mode fine and currently reads:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H

I have a Rogers 32A and had problems accessing the sdcard after flashing the new spl and radio. I struggled for a week trying everything in this thread (and everything else I could find) but nothing worked... until yesterday!

I have:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-ON H

HBOOT-1.76.2007

RADIO-6.35.10.18

My sdcard is formatted FAT32. Reformatting and repartitioning had no effect.

I received the "signature failed" error trying to downgrade the radio and with no access to the sdcard I was unable to flash a rom compatible with the upgraded radio. My eventual fix? With the phone in fastboot mode (back+power) I typed:

fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

The command prompt came back with "OKAY." I then booted into the Hero recovery:

fastboot boot recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.3.1.img

(I have never been able to flash a new recovery onto my phone so I get to recovery this way. I suspect the normal method of getting to recovery will work just as well.) As pointed out elsewhere in this thread make sure your recovery is compatible with the new hboot/radio -- I am having success with the HERO recovery.

Once I was at the recovery screen I had to wait for 30 seconds for the sdcard to mount. But once I did everything worked as it had in all previous rom flashes!

I don't know if it is related but after trying to mount the sdcard when it wasn't working I would end up with a bunch of qxdm_xxx.dm files in the root of my sdcard. Now that it is running, I don't have any more of those files on the sdcard. The similarity in qxdms leads me to believe the fastboot command is related -- but I am only guessing.

Hopefully this will help someone else. Now that I am up on CursorSense I am glad I got it working. Thanks to Cursordroid for all the great work and patience helping us out!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] strongergodzilla:
Been happily flashing roms past few days, trying out new things, and was curious about the radio stuff.

I read that the 6.35.08.29 radio is the EU one

and the 6.35.10.18 is the Canadian one?

Im on ATT, in America and was wondering if I should be using the 08.29, or 10.18, or does it not matter at all? I flashed to 6.35.10.18 when I flashed CursorSense onto my magic, and have had no problems with it as far as reception, but thought i'd ask regardless.

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Double-UA:
Will you please share the link where you read this?

I'm in Belgium using 6.35.10.18 radio and I'm not so happy with the reception of that radio.

Hi guys

I tried to downgrade radio and spl but while I was flashing radio (first step) I had an error :

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

Any Ideas about that? Is anybody able to help me ?

Should I continue with the next steps and back after to the first?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
You need to flash an Engineering SPL first, like 1.33.2010.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DjMafio:
Same error... :confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
You definitely won't get that signature fail error with an Eng SPL, unless your download is corrupt. Try downloading agian.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DjMafio:
That's right, my download was corrupted!

I've now flashed my SPL with the 1.33.2010 and it worked. But ths flash of the Radio still dosn't work with the same signature error :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
It really shouldn't give that error anymore. Try powering off your phone and restarting it in FASTBOOT. What does it display on the screen?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DjMafio:
Any idea ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] strongergodzilla:
CursorDroid, can you give us any sage advice here? Is the below true about the 08.29 being eu and the 10.18 being rogers? And if so, what should american users be using for radio?

6.35.08.29 is eu - 6.35.10.18 is rogers.. Radio issues may occur when using wrong radio - I had significant 3g troubles on the rogers because im in eu.. Like loosing signal etc.

UPDATE I just flashed to 6.35.08.29, and was getting 1 bar less than with the 6.35.10.18 in my office. Flashed back to the 10.18 radio, and back to full bars everywhere. So take that as you will, I use ATT which I believe uses similar bands as Rogers in Canada.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
If you aren't able to follow a few steps to upgrade your radio and SPL, then yes, you could brick your phone.

I won't be able to do a video guide, but maybe some else could...

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
There is no reason that I can think of that you would want to flash a perfected SPL onto your phone after getting the Engineering SPL flashed.

But... What you can do is extract the HTC RUU for your phone and flash the hboot from there onto your phone using fastboot.

Hi,

My phone in fastboot has the following information:

SAPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-ON H

HBOOT-1.33.2010

CPLD-12

RADIO-3.22.20.17

The context:

My phone does not recognise my sdcard anymore. I received some feedback where i need to issue a special command in fastboot which is only recognised in SPL 1.76.2007. I don't want to stay in SPL 1.76.2007 and would like to downgrade after having fixed my sdcard issue to version 1.33.2010 and corresponding radio.

My question:

Will it be possible to downgrade my Magic if i have a "S-ON" Flag ?

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] d_ced:
up up,

My ENG SPL still has S-ON and i cannot follow the first page instruction.

- How can i change this flag to S-OFF. I tought that the upgrade from the stock the ENG SPL should have remove this S-ON but this is not the case. Any idea how to do this ?

-As i have S-ON, i cannot fastboot flash as mentioned in the first tutorial. Any other methods to do this ?

THanks

Shut the phone off.

Start it up by holding down Back and pressing Power.

Post the results.

If you don't have HBOOT 1.33.2005, 1.33.2009, 1.33.2010, then you probably shouldn't proceed with these instructions.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
Hi Cursordroid, is it possible to upgrade without fastbooting? some reason my usb connection/port is dead and can no longer connect to pc for adb or fastbooting. the device just doesn't recognize that it's plugged in, pretty strange.

anyways, is fastbooting the only way to upgrade to new radio, spl, and 6.35 recovery? i know you can upgrade recovery in terminal, and you can upgrade radio and spl in recovery, but i dont think you can do all 3 in terminal or all 3 in current recovery. or can you? any tips?

edit:

We know that if you update from carrier, a major update will usually include new radio, spl, and rom. soooo is there a way to make an update.zip that has the 6.35 compatible rom, 6.35 radio, and spl in it that i can flash with the current sapphire recovery? then when it boots up, i can use terminal to flash the new 6.35 recovery?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
There might be a way to update by putting these files into an update.zip, but the safest way is to flash them through fastboot.

EDIT: Actually... The SPL can't be flashed through recovery at all.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
but i have done spl through recovery many times. that is how i switched from 1.33.2005 to 1.33.2010 and back. do you mean the newer spl will not flash? cuz i know old ones does fine.

I editted my post one more time, earlier i said to put recovery in the zip too, but i meant radio. so if we put the 6.35 compatible rom, 6.35 radio, and spl into update.zip with proper update-script, i wonder if it will work? cuz you can flash all three pieces alone in seperate update.zips, but all together in one zip, i dont know. haha.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
If I put the package together, would you be willing to test it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
yeah i would, there's a lot of roms now for new radio, might be time for a change. expensive change if it fails tho hahah. any ideas how the factory update-scripts work for them to be able to update your phone with new radio, rom and spl? like the recent firmware release that upgraded people to new radio?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
I'm putting one together right now that should be able to update Radio, SPL and Recovery all at once.

If you're not comfortable testing it, I can do it tomorrow morning when I get to work (in about 11 hours)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
please test for me, i can wait. i thank you so much. if it fails maybe try update with radio, spl and rom, but no recovery, then recovery we can flash in terminal (assuming it boots hehe)

Wait until tomorrow to flash Radio and SPL. I will have a proper update.zip file for this to avoid all of the fastboot commands.

the new procedure will have nearly no risk at all.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fabbio87:
My HTC Magic 32A have the original SPL (1.33.0008) and Radio (3.22.20.17), if I upgrade with the new RADIO/SPL can i run original RUU update (2.15.901.4) to downgrade spl/radio to original ones?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
I don't know... That would be the easiest way I guess, but I wouldn't try it myself.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
So I tried to get the RADIO and HBOOT images into the same update.zip file and it fails because it can't store a radio.img and hboot.img at the same time.

The update-script doesn't flash the image file right away. It saves it aside until the script is done and the phone is rebooted, then it's flashed. It can only save one image at a time, either HBOOT or RADIO.

In the meantime, check out my fileshare, there are .zip updates for both radio and SPL, but I don't know if you'll have any luck with them seperately without fastboot access.

Your best chance is to get fastboot working on your PC.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fabbio87:
Thx cursor! Last question, i see that i can downgrade from 1.76.2007 to ENG SPL 1.33.2010, after that can i return back to my original SPL 1.33.0008 or it is impossible? I ask that because i've afraid that if i need to send my htc to assistence they see that i've changed original SPL with ENG SPL and they can invalidate my warranty...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
thank you for your efforts. too bad theres no way for me to fastboot right now, so sad. my G1/dream is fine, i can connect to pc and fastboot everything works. it's not my PC thats wrong, something with my magic usb port. it doesnt even detect when it connects to pc. when i use mountusb app, it tells me to "connect usb first" when it is already connected haha. maybe usb hardware is dead? sucks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] strongergodzilla:
Check your PM's
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
i was trying different cables and usb ports again on the pc. when i attach to every port on my PC motherboard it doesnt alert me on the phone nor on the pc about any connections. its like nothing is connected at all even though it does charge.

i have a usb hub extension, one of those that have like 4 additional ports, i tried connecting to this hub and i get unknown device error. but the phone doesnt show any signs that its connected even though the pc does show unknonw device. i tried updating drivers a this point but nothing.

my keyboard also has a usb hub on it with like 3 ports to attach usb stuff to. i attached my phone to this and this time it also got the same unknown device error, but then it also shows up notification on my phone that "htc sync" is connected which is something new! it actually recognizes that its connected on the phone, where before it didnt. i installed the htc sync software, but it doesnt detect it either even though on my phone it detects a usb connection and ask to sync. when i tried syncing it just errors out cuz no connection.

it's weird that it somewhat detects it when i connect to a hub but not when i connect straight to computer.

looks like there's still potential my usb port isnt dead on the phone?

Maybe if i boot into the linux live cd and try that way? im not great with linux though, i remember only using the live cd ones to make partitions long time ago on my g1 sdcard.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dk75:
boot from Ubuntu LiveCD (9.10 right now), and make LiveUSB with that on 2GB pendrive

That way you could install AndroidSDK on pendrive and use it to fastboot

But first check if Ubuntu sees your phone

Secondly it could be a problem with your mobo USB chipset.

Search on the net with your mobo chipset ID if it have any trouble with USB

Hi Cursordroid,

My phone has S-ON with the ENG SPL 1.33.2010

I've tried the fastboot command but as S-ON flag is set, i cannot use these command in fastboot. signature check failed. The only available option for me is to boot (fastboot boot recovery-ra-saphire....) in Recovery mode and use update.zip files in the SDcard.

My question:

Here the process i'm thinking off:

0) Copy radio.zip and hboot.zip into the sdcard

1) Boot your phone in fastboot

2) fastboot boot recovery-RA-saphire-v1.5.2H

3) flash radio.zip from sdcard

4) reboot the phone

5) let the radio package install

6) reboot the phone in fastboot

7) fastboot boot recovery-RA-saphire-v1.5.2H

8) flash hboot.zip from sdcard (i've been able to upgrade in ENG SPL 1.33.2010 so i'm assuming that upgrade from ENG SPL2010 to ENG SPL 1.76.2007)

9) reboot the phone

10) let the hboot package install

My questions:

- After step 10, i should have the radio 6.35.10.18 and the spl 1.76.2007 SPL but the recovery is not yet installed. Is this a problem ?

- Based on your experience, am i able to boot the phone in fastboot mode ?

- Does the command "fastboot boot recovery-RA-saphire-v1.5.2H" will work or do i need to use recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.2.img ?

Thanks for your support.

What can i do if my Magic was 1.76.0007 and 6.35.07.29 radio with S-ON ?

I guess my question are rather noob but i had spend almost 6 hours digging XDA forums and tried a lot of methods or threads and really cant brick my sapp. My sapp was Malaysian HTC-branded Magic 32A. While fastboot-ing RA's recovery ROM from cmd, it says <remote: not allowed>. I realize that perhaps I need an Engineering SPL. But from RA's threads shown that I would need to boot into recovery rom to upgrade or downgrade ( i guess was downgrade for my case ) radio or SPL.

Was there any ROM ( etc Cyanogen or RA ) that doesnt require me to downgrade my radio or SPL ?

Hi cursordroid,

Please check your pm for another potential method for updating without fastboot, looks like it can have a good chance this time, in theory at least haha.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] qakgob:
Setting up the sdk

Hi, I tried to set up the SDK on linux, following the info on the thread for setting it up on ubuntu. I followed the instructions on the first page. However, when I start terminal I get this message at the top

bash: /home/qakgob/.bashrc: line 6: syntax error near unexpected token `('
bash: /home/qakgob/.bashrc: line 6: `export PATH=${PATH}:/home/qakgob/AndroidSDK/tools# ~/.bashrc: executed by bash(1) for non-login shells.'

and then if I try to run and comand (eg fastboot devices) I get the error

bash: fastboot: command not found

Any idea what I did wrong? I tried on the thread, but it's been buried by other threads.

Also, would it be possible to flash the update for hboot and radio cursordroid shared last page using my recovery screen? Or would that just brick the phone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] robocik:
I dont know which instructions you have followed but this is how i have setuped sdk in my ubuntu:

i see you have downloaded and unpacked your SDK, but i think you also gonna have to download FASTBOOT and unpack to your sdk/tools directory. Check if you have bot abd and fastboot in your sdk/tools/ directory.

Here is what i have done then(in terminal on your computer):

cd /whatever/path/to/linuxSDK/tools/

chmod a+x adb

chmod a+x fastboot

If your computer does not found your phone:

gksudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

add this line, save and quit:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"

then in terminal again:

sudo chmod a+rx /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

sudo /etc/init.d/udev reload

Then for adb or fastboot to work you have stand in /sdk/tools/ and write ./adb and ./fastboot

Hope it helps.
