that is correct. cyanogen is built to run with the standard magic radio and spls, this is hero stuff so it won't work

correct, the old nandroids are for your old radio/spl so they won't work with the hero radio/spl. they are worthless now until you revert back to your old radio/spl

that's weird. are you wiping via recovery or fastboot?

which engineering SPL should i use? thanks :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
I had the same config as you and used 1.33.2005 without problems!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iroquois:
thanks for the quick and efficient reply, cheers :)

first time trying to root my magic and it is really a long process :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iroquois:
another question,

how to get fastboot to work?

whenever i insert my phone into vista, it just says found new hardware but even if i link it to my android SDK folder it doesn't seem to have the driver :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iroquois:
i think i found the problem :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crisvillani:
Does any one no where i can download the engineer spl and how to flash it ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Survivor.Sole:
Thanks for your answers. I did format & wipe with recovery after some reboots But it´s strange anyway. I thing it´s something related with recovery rom,(the hero one. Maybe it´s a bug.

Im running a compatible ROM right now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Teletran:
Hello everyone,

I am trying to follow these instructions but I need a little help at the prerequisite step. This step states that you need:

- HTC Magic / Sapphire 32A

- Engineering SPL

----- 1.33.2005

----- 1.33.2009

----- 1.33.2010

----- If you boot into fastboot and have issues with "fastboot:remote not allow", then your SPL won't work. Upgrade to Engineering SPL before continuing.

- Working ADB/Fastboot Drivers

- Basic knowledge or modding your phone

Currently my phone has HBOOT 1.33.0009 SPL.

What process must I follow to meet the minimum Engineering SPL requirement posted in the prerequisites?

I downloaded the file: update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2010-signed.zip

Do I rename this file to update.zip, copy to the root of the SD card and apply update.zip (by booting the phone by pressing Home+Power).

Thanks for the help!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
You should flash a custom recovery first and then flash SPL the same way you described it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Teletran:
Thanks eyegor.

I already have the older Amon RA recovery-RAv1.2.1H. Is that sufficient?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Oh, its fine then. I thought you didnt have a custom recovery because you said select "flash update.zip" whereas my recovery allows flashing of any zip from SD card, i didnt think about older versions :/ sorry...

Yes it should be fine. I cant guarantee anything though, if i were you id flash a new recovery first.

I had the same SPL as you and i flashed 1.33.2005 without issues, i didn't want to gamble with another since i found two-three posts stating they had success with 1.33.2005.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Teletran:
Great!

Thank you very much for the help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
You're welcome! Good luck!

What´s improvements this radio 6.35.10.18? I´m using 6.35.08.29 now.

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bedeadu:
How would HERO Roms using same SPL and Radio be ported?

I was just curious what would be prevented me from installing this ROM:

(me, Rogers Magic, latest 6.35 Radio & 1.76.200 SPL)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=619262

- Its a custom Eclair2.1 ROM for GSM Hero, same SPL, almost same radio (last version) - Radio 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26

I get stuck at the my Rogers boot screen. Am I correct it's something to do with needing a custom kernel?

Anyone here have any insight?

Edit: I should point out that I am using latest Cursordroid ROM with no issues (i realized that is obviously because it was built with a Rogers Magic)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
That ROM uses the HTC 2.6.29 kernel, which doesn't boot on 32A Magic like the HTC 2.6.27 does. We need the 2.6.29 kernel sources before we can get those to boot on 32A.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bedeadu:
Thank you, I see, so basically it's a waiting game (again), for HTC to release this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
is there another way to flash these images besides fastboot? I cannot connect my phone to USB =/

sometimes down the road my phone and pc stopped recognizing eachother. Yes I do have the latest SDK and drivers. The phone doesnt even has the alert saying that it is connected to usb or to mass storage or to debugging. plugging in the usb cable, doesnt do anyhting on the phone or pc. it's like there isnt any electrical connection there or something. but the phone charges fine. I have root and everything and can flash updates through reocvery fine. Just cant do anything with USB cable.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Teletran:
Just thought that I would report back and mention that everything went swimmingly!

However I'd like to try the 6.35.08.29 version of radio.

Can I simply flash radio using "fastboot flash radio" or do I need to repeat the whole procedure? (radio, then spl, then rom)

You just need to flash the new radio and reboot. You dont' need the whole procedure.

Thanks again eyegor!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
No probs Cursor ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Atlas24:
hmm ok i figured it out i had a type when i was flashing the recovery- so now i have everything done- radio, spl and recovery. but now when i load into the recovery holding home and power- i get stuck at the first boot screen
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
Load into fastboot, reflash the Hero recovery, then try booting into recovery.

Before reflashing type this in:

fastboot erase recovery
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Atlas24:
ahah wow thanks guys- i guess im an idiot- for somereason i was loading the wrong version, i dont now. anyways now i have the recovery- i try to update the but i get E: No zip files found. The cursor zip file is on there- i just checked like 10 times
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Rofl after every step you hit another brick wall - your head must hurt.

The zip has to be on the root of the SD card, and the hero recovery takes from 30 sec to 1 min to mount the SD card so you will have to be a little patient.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Atlas24:
ohh man - im sweating bullets - ive had to go to the bathroom for the last hour- but i haven't moved attempting to fix this
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Atlas24:
OMG I thank you and cursor for your help, suddenly doves flew by my window, and fireworks exploded in the distance- the rom has been loaded now im waiting for it to boot.

BEAM me up scotty-----------

ive gone through most of the boot screens, i passed the waiving android- now BOOM IT WORKS- JOY TO THE WORLD - brb bathroom break lol

Hi all,

I'm going to apply this upgrade, but I fear to brick my phone :P.

Before proceding, I'd like to ask if first I need to install the 1.33.2010 SPL, even if I have a 1.33.0008 SPL which allows me to fastboot.

Thanks :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hone2009:
i made an update to 6.35.10 today noon, but it seems to be a real battery killer! is it possible to go back to 6.35.08 by applying the update.zip?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Yes, you do. It does allow you to fastboot but it will fail on a signature check when you try to apply a new radio...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Naatan:
I'm running the following SPL:

HBOOT-1.33.0009

So I tried to apply the engineering SPL first, but this happens:

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot flash radio files\hboot-1.33.2010.img

sending 'radio' (512 KB)... OKAY

writing 'radio'... INFOsignature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

What do I do ?

You should flash an engineering spl through the recovery.

I am trying to downgrade 32A 3.22 Radio and SPL

I got the 1.33.2010 Engineering SPL HBOOT image and the 3.22.20.17 Radio image. However, whenever I try to flash the radio it would say:

writing 'radio'... INFOsignature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

I've been trying to ask around with no answer and it's quite depressing as right now my CursorSense 1.2.0 can't see the microsd card when i put it in (I am quite sure it's formated correctly as I somehow ended up pushing the rom using fastboot -c board_sapphire.disable_sdcard=0 boot recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.2.img

arg i am so confused why everyone has it working except for me :confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Its performing as if you have a standard SPL.

What you could try to do is put your radio.img into a .zip file, sign it and apply it through the recovery, like any other ROM.

Thats how cursor said you could apply a 6.35 radio so i cant see why 3.22 wouldnt work
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] billybookcase:
i was wondering if it had anything to do with

Sapphire PVT 32A ENG S-ON H

HBOOT-1.76.2007 (SAPP50000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-6.35.10.18

also sorry to bother but to clarify, i would the downgraded radio_HTC_PVT_32A_3.22.20.17.img into the update.zip file, rezip it into a new .zip file and apply it as if i was applying it as a "Flash zip from sdcard" in fastboot. thanks a lot for the help
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Wait wait...

do it like this:

1. make a .zip archive named, lets say radio.zip

2. put your radio.img into your radio.zip archive

3. sign the archive (if you dont know how : http://androidforums.com/developer-101/8665-how-signing-roms.html)

4. put in on your sd card

5. boot into recovery and flash it

Dude.... WHAT?? I'm guessing you heard that on XDA is a method to put 2.0 on the G1, and instead of, I dunno, reading anything, you just created an account, skipped reading ANY of the forum rules, and posted a question asking people to hold your hand and give you information that you were two clicks away from finding yourself? This is the development section. You ONLY create a thread here if you are contributing to DEVELOPMENT. If you have a QUESTION, you post in Q&A. How hard is that????

Of course, this is bypassing the ridiculous question... why would you be running "firmwark" 1.1? If that's really what you have, then I don't think you want to root or flash 2.0. You want the latest OTA update. Here are the steps:

Step 1: Wait a day or two, and your phone will tell you there's an update available

Step 2: Click yes

Step 3: Wait while your phone updates itself

Step 4: Voila! You have the latest official firmware

Step 5: Never visit these forums again

I have a question for all of you who are using shields for our device, from your experience which one is the best?

I mean the most scratch resistant but whitout affecting the sensibility of the touch screen.

I have these 3 models in mind:

http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/htc-touch-pro-2-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php - Zagg's invisible shield which is the most expensive

http://www.bodyguardz.com/content/accessories/26---2249.htm - Bodyguardz which is the same price as Zagg's but offers 2 sets

http://www.gadgetshieldz.com/att-ti...nvisible-shields-screen-protectors-skins.html - the cheapest one
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] glitzbd:
May help

I am sorry but I personally have no experience with Bodyguardz what-so-ever. I have used an invisible shield on an iPhone, but it was a very short time. However, I have a GadgetShieldz installed on my Tilt 2 and had one on two of my Fuze's. I think for the price the GadgetShieldz has been a great investment, but do be warned with any of these the screen (I imagine the other two are like this) will have a "drag". With the stock screen protect your finger fluidly slides around. With the GadgetShieldz I do tend to apply more pressure because my skin drags with the surface of the shield, but my screen is still very responsive and works just as it did without. I use the Swype keyboard for my input method and once I adjust to the shield it was like normal. Using the stylus is a bit harder because you cannot simply drag it, but if you learn the right amount of pressure needed this is not an issue.

The back is still kind of slick but better than stock, and I feel less worried now setting my phone down not so scared that it will scratch up that shiny back, ya know!

At 6.99 I recommend the product! There was a 15% off code on my thread also.

Edit: Please check this thread there is a 15% and 20% code posted! Enjoy!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] MightyCrys:
I know about the discount, I posted the 20% one :)

But the main problem is that is only made for carriers branded phones and not for the unbranded european T7373 which I have
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] wildfxp:
Zagg had 50% off EVERYTHING about a week ago, but I decided I don't need the shield since it's just FRONT & BACK.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] MightyCrys:
So what more did you wanted if full body coverage is not enough? If you check the photo you'll see that on the back shield it has also side protection, at least that's what I understand http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/htc-touch-pro-2-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php

I saw that promotion on Zagg but from what I read the invisible shield somehow makes the tocuh screen harder to use, it tends to be more rubberish
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] deeken:
I have not tried Bodyguardz either but I've tried Invisiblesheild on many of my phones and currently have the Gadgetshieldz on my Tilt 2. At the moment I have the Invisiblesheild on my Fuze. I was just holding both phones and trying to feel the difference between the two. To be quite honest the only difference I've noticed is the the Invisiblesheild is a little more "grippy" than the Gadgetshieldz. Other than that there is not much of a difference.

The Gadgetsheildz was less than $6 (with shipping) while the Invisiblesheild was almost $30. I would go with a couple of Gadgetshieldz.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] MightyCrys:
By grippy you refer to the back side?

And could you please post some pictures of the GadgetShieldz installed?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] daisaw1219:
what about best skins ever, they only cost like 6 bucks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] deeken:
No, as a whole the Invisiblesheild is more grippy. Front, back, sides, all.

Here are some pics of my Tilt2 with the Gagdetsheildz and my Fuze with Invisiblesheild.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] deeken:
Don't get the Invisiblesheild!

I also purchased the Invisiblesheild for the Tilt2 as well, which came in yesterday. I noticed that the Invisiblesheild DOES NOT provide protection for the front sides. The Gadgetsheildz does. This is pathetic. It costs almost 5 times as much and it doesn't cover some of the most easily damaged areas? Eff that!

Seriously, do yourself a favor and go with the gadgetsheldz, I'm going to complain to Invisiblesheilds.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] i_m_jughead:
Best of both worlds

I have found the option that is working best for me

I am using phantom skinz for full body and reuseable screen protector for the screen.

I was planning to put phantom skinz on the screen as well, but once i applied it on the back cover i didn't want to have the draggy feeling on the screen so i went with stock screen protector. I also got reusable PET screen protectors like the Boxwave ones for smooth screen feel.

The other think that i was worried about phantom skinz(and invisible shields, bodyguradz etc) is removing it from the delicate resistive tp2 screen.

So for me phantom skin for body + PET screen protector for screen works out to be perfect.

Hope this helps
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] MightyCrys:
Thanks deeken for the pictures, it looks really nice with the GadgetShieldz, I'm definetly going to buy 2 of these in case I don't get it wright from the first attempt, but that would still be chaper than anything else, also using the 20% coupon.

The only problem is they release a shield for the standard model which I have

I declare myself satisfied and convinced with GadgetShieldz.

Zagg

Been using zag product from every new device i buy. 3 Reason why

1)life time warranty

2)The case can take a beating and never show that it been threw a lot. had my zagg shield on since i bought my device back in October and people alway say to me

"you should get a case for this phone before it get scratches up did you just get it?"(They cant notice the protective plastic).

3)It's worth the money, buying cheap plastic protective for your phone over and over again going to add up to the price of 1 zagg case.

I see alot of people saying that the zagg do not cover your entire phone. All i have to say is what are you talking about??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] BeEazy10:
It dont make the touch screen harder to use, i have no problem with the stylish nor my fingers. i can use my screen with the slightest touch of a peace of paper,pen, cotten, food you name it i tired it. :) life time warranty why not take the risk of testing anything out lol
