Thank you

That was helpful thanks!!!:):)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] cyberdroxxx:
I don't think you can upgrade the stock ROM if your serial number does not tally with HTC database. You even can't install using someone else serial number. The RUU just will not write to your TD2. I had tried to install EU ROM upgrade using my Asia serial number but failed.

Another option is to check your SPL version and flashed back with it's shipped SPL.

If all else fail, your only solution is to HSPL your device and flash with cooked ROMs available at TD2 section. There are many available. Some are better than HTC stock upgrades.

Good luck.

Hi Friends,

I have been reading this forum for 4 hours and I can't figure out - how to root my HTC magic,still.

There was a link(Magic Rooting) mentioned in a thread and it is not working anymore.

Please help me...I am new to android phones.

Thanks for your time..!!!

Specs:

PVT32A

HBOOT:1.33.0009

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

If you just want to root it you can try this :

android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Rooting

If you got confused, you can start by from here:

wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Sapphire_Hacking

hope it helps

http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/29/how-to-root-the-htc-magic-in-one-click/

This is the method I used ages ago like last year for my Singapore HTC Magic.

I can't say if this is the best way to do it but it certainly did the trick for me. Good luck and just make sure you read every step well.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sharon09:
Hello Dinosaur ,

I could flash the recovery mentioned in the website. But I see the 10 th point is...

10. To get Root access you MUST go to the next video mentioned above and load a custom ROM.

So that's why I got confused...

Probably you could tell me the ROM you flashed. I bought my mobile from singtel...

And thanks for your reply...:D

-Sharon:rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sharon09:
Hi Nimue,

The file links of Magic Rooting website are not working anymore.. :(

I tried those things before writing this post... :o

-Sharon
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ayush20m:
the 10th step is a little misleading. you do have root access by now and you just need to go to the other video to see how to install a rom on your phone.

i checked all the links, they work fine for me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Kid_Dream:
Yeah once u root your phone successfully, boot up your phone by holding "Home+Power" button and it will go into recovery mode. Then do a nandroid backup and keep this file safely. From there, you are ready to flash to a new rom. Remember to wipe first before flashing. Personally i recommend SuperD. And check that the rom is for old radio and it's 32A :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sharon09:
No. the website is ok.

But I could not download Haykuro's files...

I get error while unzipping the downloaded files.

its incomplete...:o

Or could anyone send me the files if they have ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sharon09:
Hi,

Can I flash the ROM wihtout rooting my HTC..?

Is there anything called rooted-ROM..?

Forgive my ignorance..I am just learning from you...:(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ayush20m:
Where are you trying to install that file from. Please send me the link.

No. You can not flash anything without rooting your phone. No, the ROMs are not rooted, the phone are.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Kid_Dream:
Yeah u have to root your phone first. Just follow the steps on theunlockr.com and you'll be fine. I was like you initially...clueless about rooting and flashing new rom. But once you've tried it, it's actually quite simple. And since HTC Sg wont be updating 2.1 for HTC Magic, all the more we must root our phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sharon09:
Hi, Thanks for the reply.

http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Rooting

In the above website , there are two links to download ROM and Recovery..

Download Haykuro's Magic "rootme" rom (Mirror) and the Magic modified recovery

The files are incomplete.i.e You could download but cannot unzip it.

Thanks,

my digitizer just gave out, i was thinking if i can get dual touch with more sensitive touch like hd2 on my hd? is it even possible or the phone might not support that feature, cuz i thought changing the digitizer and screen altogether would make a difference...or the firmware does not exist..... any idea?
[Touch HD General] stuntdouble:
Multitouch isn't supported and no you can't replace with a capacitive screen to give it this function. You need to replace like for like.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Yeah we need more info.

What kind of SPL and radio does he have?

The new MyTouch with the headset jack is a hybrid of sorts of the 32A and 32B. It's basically a 32B with the memory of a 32A if I'm not mistaken.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tats_06:

make a backup, wipe, reboot.

If yes = hardware (go to 1)

If no = software (go to 2)

1. Hardware:

Return to T-Mobile and get it replaced

2. Software:

What rom were you using?

What extra characteristics does it have? (sdcard partition: ext#, swap size and amount)

Any recent apps installed and running constantly?

Try going from a fresh start (wipe) and then see how stable it is.

If you're still having the same issue then try a different rom.

If you're still having the same issue then it's hardware. (See 1)

Hello, when I tried to update my Magic to a new radio something went wrong. Start-up screen freezes. Only fastboot and recovery are available.

Now, when I trie to restore my nandroid backup in recovery I get the message:

E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0

p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)

(No such file or directory)

E: Can't mount SDCARD:/nandroid/

And it's not the SDcard that's malfunctioning...

When I trie it with fastboot I get:

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot flash system system.img

sending 'system' (80002 KB)... OKAY

writing 'system'... INFOsignature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot flash boot boot.img

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot flash userdata data.img

sending 'userdata' (132301 KB)... OKAY

writing 'userdata'... INFOsignature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

I've searched everywhere for a solution for this problem, and tried everything but nothing helped. So I hope someone can help me here...

These are the specifications of my phone:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-ON H

HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAP10000)

RADIO-6.35.10.18

The original radio was 3.22.20.17

I had recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.6.2H, but after my failed radio update, it rebootet after 2 seconds...so now I use recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2 to enter my recovery. This one works, doesn't reboot, but I don't have acces to my SDcard.

Thanks for you're help!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tbrummell:
How long are you waiting after booting to Recovery before trying the restore? I think there's an issue with the amount of time it takes to mount the SDCard. Try waiting for a bit. It does work for me, but not if I immediately try to backup/restore after entering Recovery. I usually wait a couple of minutes.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] janximan:
well...I've waited 10 minutes...but still the same response...

If I see your specifications, I see that your phone is OFF and mine ON, in another tread someone said that the "ON"-sign was the reason for not having acces to the Sdcard... :s But I'm not sure this is true...

Even...everything I trie to flash with fastboot (so I don't need acces to my SDcard I guess...) doesn't work...due to that signature verify failure... Maybe there is a solution for that problem...?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] drbobb:
Hey it seems you really have a problem.

The hboot version is not right for your radio version. You obviously did not follow the very clear howto by cursordroid, easily found in the android development section. I'm not sure how to solve this, but you must first look for some way to upgrade the SPL to the version that works correct with new radio.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] janximan:
Hi...yes... I updated the radio on a wrong way...

I already thought that this new radio and 'old' SPL were the reason why this doesn't function anymore...

I already tried to update the SPL on different ways... With recovery I don't have acces to my SD card and with fastboot I get the same response as above... I don't think there is another way... :s

I really screwed up this time...I hope someone can help me out... This is the first time this happens to me but it will be the last :o
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] KAwAtA:
Woww you're so lucky you didn't brick. Love it when people fail to follow simple instructions! And how would a nandroid restore help? Since when does that restore radio/spl. Also how did you manage to get the hero recovery on there? Did you flash the recovery then radio?

Since you're using the hero recovery, it takes some time to mount the sd card. SO wait a bit when you try this

Try this,

1) fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

2) If that doesn't work, you're sort of screwed. I'm not sure if it will work since youre s-on

3) If it works, flash the old radio in recovery.

4) I'd try goldcard if none of the above works
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] janximan:
Hi...thanks for the help!

Well, I read somewhere that I could use that hero recovery... So I use fastboot to boot the recovery on my Magic, that's the only way to enter the recovery.

I first flashed recovery sapphire 1.6.2H, made a back-up and then I flashed the radio...

I tried what you asked and I got this:

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

... INFO[ERR] Command error !!!

OKAY

So...I guess I'm screwed...? :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] drbobb:
Re: Huge problem to restore nandroid backup - "can't mount SDCARD:/nandroid/"

If your phone really fails to mount the sdcard in recovery, even after waiting a while, you might still be able to flash a correct engineering spl if your recovery allows you to connect by adb. The idea would be to push the img to /cache and flash it from there, using the adb command line. I have never tried that though so no guarantees.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] janximan:
Hi, yes, I waited 30minutes...still no result... should I wait longer?

I found the correct engineering spl and I can connect by adb...

Could you tell me which commands I have to type in cmd to push the engineering spl (.zip) with adb?

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] drbobb:
PM me if you haven't solved the problem yet.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] janximan:
I haven't solved the problem yet.. Could you tell me which commands I have to type for adb in command prompt? This is the name of the .zip file "update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2009-signed"
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] drbobb:
this should be

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb push hboot-1.76.2007.img /cache

when the hboot file is in your tools folder. You got a usage message from the command, that means the command was malformed. So the rest couldn't work either. And no I did not miss any space in the flash_image command.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] drbobb:
Damn, sorry to disappoint but I did some more research and I think my idea won't work after all
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jgcaap:
the Sign is on, and you have to turn it off. Use the goldcard method and use:

http://rapidshare.com/files/267446145/2.53.707.2_-_sappimg.zip

to turn it off, and start the flasshing process again for safe keeping.

Instructions:

http://translate.google.pt/translat...ss.C3.A1rio_para_fazer_o_processo&sl=pt&tl=en

If you want try flash using HTC Magic oficial update and start the process all over again for safe keeping.

Hope it helps
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jgcaap:
i was reading things better. Have you tried to download a oficially signed from HTC Hboot and in fastboot flashing it ? If you sucessed you could reverse the process :)

PS: does anyone know to explain me why did this exacly happened?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] janximan:
Jup...still no difference...

Thanks drbobb for all the effort and time! If there really is no other way to make it work than the goldcard method... I should try this one...but read it first a few times...

Jgcaap... Thanks for the help.. I explained on the first page how I get this far... Updated my radio on a wrong way :s
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jgcaap:
how did you update the radio ? Sorry to ask again but in the first page isnt expressed if you done by flashing procedure (USB) or by other method (Recovery).
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] janximan:
Well...i don't know for sure but I think I just flashed a new radio (.zip) file in recovery... Without using fastboot...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jgcaap:
Well according to the studies the most safe is in fastboot, in recovery you can also flash but there is always a risk since the recovery might not be 100% safe to flash. But you still havent done anything else? Please try remember because there must be a way of exploiting to make the phone work again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] janximan:
No... I just downloaded the radio image from this page (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=605239) and flashed it in recovery...

The only thing I did with my phone was rooting, and updated my ROM http://planetmax.co.in/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=148

Then I would change my radio because I wanted to flash another Rom.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] oileoi:
I was having the exact same problem and I freaked out. It's fixed now and this is what I did.

1) Reboot into recovery

2) Copy all your files from the SD card to your computer (Specially the nandroid folder as this contains your backup history)

3) Reflash a new ROM (I flashed CM 6.0)

4) Partion your SD card

5) Do a nandroid backup

6) Copy all your files from your computer to the SD card

7) That's it! You are done you should be able to use your phone as normal now.

Im not sure why the problem, but I've read a couple of post where people has this problem because they changed the name of the nandroid backups and the phone didn't recognise them. They solved the problem by replacing any spaces in their nandroid backup files for underscores "_". Others commented that using the original name solved the problem as well.

Good luck just my 2 cents.
