Well you can get to fastboot, right? It's not fully bricked then :)

But to be sure is is it MyTouch 3G 1.2 (with 3,5mm audio jack)/Fender or "original" HTC Magic 32A (with only the HTC mini USB connector). What I mean is that your device sounds to be a MT3G1.2/Fender and it is extremely dangerous to flash unsupported radio/hboot firmware on it!

If you are sure it's a Magic 32A (with only the htc connector at the bottom, 288MB RAM) use this radio instead of the one listed in the OP: http://goo.gl/Pp2JF for me it works much better with newer Gingerbread ROMs.

I don't know about the MT3G1.2/Fender, sorry :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dcnarad:
Partially fixed still issues

Thank you so much for the quick response.

My phone is a MyTouch 3G 1.2 but I'm pretty sure it has 32A board (and has always run 32a ROMs).

Since I had fastboot access I flashed back to old Radio (3.22.20.17.)

and SPL (1.33.2010.) using fastboot-commander (magic) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=824435.

The phone booted to amon-RA recovery and I installed Yoshi 1.5 and auto-boot-2.6.35.14-farmatito-pershoot-ds+-20110802 kernel.

The phone boots and does everything fine except that b-cos its running on 32B ENG S-off H it shows as permanently being on headphones and internal speakers don't work.

I tried to flash the Radio and SPL back to its native 2.22.28.25_S and 32A 1.33.0013 S-ON G and the whole thing freezes without ability to boot to recovery. I had to get back to using my goldcard to re-root and re-flash the radios.

Where am I going wrong. I know the Phone was running fine for at least 6 months on 2.22.28.25 radio and 32A 1.33.0013 S-ON G till I started to upgrade to the new radio.

Please help, Thanks

Resolved

Thanks to ezterry's post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=918438. I Finally resolved the crisis.

Here is what I did.

1. Used Goldcard and flashed sappimg.zip giving me 32B eng. S-OFF mode

2. Flashed Radio 2.22.28.25, Amon-RA-recovery (clockwork used to work, now it won't boot, for some odd reason)

3. Boot into recovery and install Yoshi 1.5 (for 32B) and auto-boot-2.6.35.14-farmatito-pershoot-ds+-20110802.zip (this installed ebi0 based kernel).

4. rebooted back into recovery

5. from recovery installed update.SPL_Original_1.33.0013-signed.zip

6. reboot into recovery (that should finish installing the SPL)

7. from recovery installed update-1_33_0013-to-1_33_0013d_S.zip

8. reboot into recovery, just to finish the SPL install and still be sure that recovery survived the process.

9. reboot into fastboot to check the radio and SPL.

10. reboot the device.

Works great now.

fastboot now reads

SPL/hboot version: 1.33.0013d.

Radio version: 2.22.28.25.

Main software version: 2.53.707.2.

cid: t-mob010.

cpld: 13.

product: sapphire.

mid: sapp31000.

security: on.

build-mode: ship.

Lessons learned:

1. Be eternally grateful to developers who put in so much effort into making all the stuff at XDA and other places available.

I'm confused right now,

I wanted to install Cyanogen Mod and I got error there.

My Magic have radio 6.35.07.29 and 1.73.2007 SPL with S-off .

Do I need to change my radio to 3.22 and my SPL so I can use the mod ?

Is it possible to change from 6.35 to 3.22?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] timothyjohnmora:
Should just be a matter of flashing the radio and spl . Do you have a custom recovery installed?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
you'd need to start your phone in recovery mode.

If it reboots in recovery mode, make sure that you're using the Amon_RA Hero recovery.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daandman:
Check & check.

I just tried it again, I start with the 1.33.2010 engineering SPL, follow the instructions using the Amon_RA Hero 1.5.2 recovery, and it won't work for me. I can start the phone in recovery, but then it won't let me do anything in there. I can move my cursor around, but can't actually press anything.

Radio flash error

Hi folks.

I'm attempting to flash the new radio after upgrading to the 1.76.2007 SPL and after a long time I get an error in the command prompt which reads:

"writing 'radio'... FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))".

Does anyone know what this means and/or if there is a way to correct it?

Cheers.

You need to make sure that the path to your AndroidSDK tools is in your computer's environment path.

# Click Start and choose Control Panel

# Click System, on the right you’ll see “View basic information about your computer”

# On the left is a list of tasks, the last of which is “Advanced system settings.” Click that.

# The Advanced tab of the System Properties dialog box is shown. Click the Environment Variables button on the bottom right.

# In the lower box titled “System Variables” scroll down to Path and click the Edit button.

# Add the path to your Android SDK tools folder at the end after a semicolon ";"

Then try again in a new Command Prompt window.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
Try shutting off your phone, re-seating the SD card, then turning it back on again in recovery mode.

then open try "adb shell mount /sdcard" every 15 seconds or so until it mounts.

It looks like you need to use a goldcard and the 2.53.707 sappimg to downgrade your phone.

You can try again to install this radio and spl after it's downgraded.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] note32:
Actually i just waited like around 10 minutes and then it was mounted, the error just disappeared, and in other threads people say you have to wait a bit, or enter the shell via adb and mount - adb shell mount /sdcard
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] direshark:
After a day struggling with the phone I finally reverted it back to previous state. In summary, my problem was:

1. My radio & SPL was updated but in FASTBOOT screen, the first line still showed "S-ON". This disallows me to flash using fastboot.

2. sdcard was somehow disabled, always threw can't mount error. This prevents me from doing any ROM update or even creating a gold card.

I had to use another HTC Magic phone to read CID and create the gold card, updated 2.53.707 sappimg but my SPL is still "S-ON" and sdcard can't be mounted.

Then I tried to push each image from my nandroid backup into "/" and flash_image:

adb push boot.img /

adb shell flash_image boot boot.img

etc

After reboot I ended up in infinite bootloop but when I started the phone in FASTBOOT, I couldn't believe in my eyes: the SPL changed to "S-OFF" and surprisingly, recovery could mount sdcard!

Now everything is back to previous state. I will take a break to recover my guts before trying to flash this ROM again haha.

Thanks for your prompt replies and advices.

You need to 'root' your phone first so that you can install the Amon_RA sapphire H recovery, then an Engineering SPL. after all of that, then start with my directions.

Hundreds of people have upgraded to this radio and SPL, so I think your situation is the exception to the rule.

When you power on, try holding down the Back or Volume Down key, does anything happen?
