Hi I have the HTC Magic 32B and i want to root it but every how-to I've tried failes. This is the last I tried:

wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Full_Update_Guide_-_MT3G/Magic_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod

The first way failes because i get the message :

"Main version is older"

I have create a Goldcard with the GoldCardTool by klutsh and i don't know how to continue after this.

The second way failes because when i open the command prompt and type in :

"fastboot boot C:\recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img"

came this message :

"downloading 'boot.img' ... FAILED (remote: not allow)
finished. total time: 0.000s"

When I fastboot my HTC Magic comes this:

Can someone help me out?
[General Questions and Answers] billybag:
I am curious to know if anyone has tried Dodiom and what their experience was like. Dodiom allows you to stream your music library from your computer to your phone. I found others, but they require you to login on your mobile browser to stream the music. Dodium uses an app. I have only begun to use it. Im waiting for my library to finish scanning. They offer a free version which i am using and a .99$ a month version (10 for whole year). You get more stuff with a paid membership, but i want to try it out first. I have been looking for a way to do this for a while and so i am hoping it works well.

Perhaps someone knows of better software/method of doing this?

EDIT: Okay. So it works rather well so far. I mentioned i had the free version. With this, you can only stream a max of 5 songs. Paid account gets you unlimited! The 5 songs that the program seemingly just chooses at random stream fine. I am actually liking this and may just get a membership after all. You can browse your music by genre, artist, album, or song which is nice too

I have searched and searched, and nothing. I had a great DoubleTwist app on my Android phone, and it did EVERYTHING very well, but I can't find one for WM. I, of course, have the client on my laptop, an I use that to sync music, movies and podcasts to the HD2, but I am hoping there is an actualt DT app to use for playing said music and movies on the phone...

Thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FadeFx:

[Click Android Development] HCDR.Jacob:
It has been done for the Desire (although it's not yet fully functional). I don't think it can be done for our phone though because of the QVGA resolution of our phone. If Samsung release a QVGA TouchWiz device it may be possible.

Hi,

Simple question, Does "root" the phone Sim-Unlock too (as far as I leave rooted ROM installed) ?

Thank you :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mercianary:
No. You need to buy an unlock code.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Root gives you system write access to your phone, to install custom roms, radios and make further modifications.

Sim-unlock only unlocks your phone to use different sim cards.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orphee:
thank you, i know what sim unlock does :)

I just wanted to know if root + goldcard was a way to bypass unlock code.

thank you :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
If you have a branded phone, you will need to use a Gold Card to unlock your phone's CID check and then you will be able to root.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DomSim:
Hi, wondering if someone has found something besides the official grooveshark app? I had nanogroove on my touch pro2 and loved it. I do not mind paying for the app, but I only want to pay ONCE not monthly. I do not see a need to pay for something monthly that I will probably not use ever month, just when the occasion arises. Does not have to be grooveshark specifically either, just an app that i can type in an artists name of song title and it search and stream it. Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Riptide9:
I came from the TP2 and loved nanogroove... Took me a while to find a replacement. Search the market for "Song Storm Lite" .... You won't feel like you are missing nanogroove anymore. Plus it puts the file automatically in your library instead of having to do the groovy.mp3 rename trick ;)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ShadowDrake:
No go for song storm? No results for me in the market. I use Music Junk, but you will have to Google to get that, the apk isn't in the market.

Ya just so you guys know the app isn't available on the Market anymore. Grooveshark asked me to remove it last friday so as of this Monday it is no longer available (it was only a matter of time). I'll maybe host the .apk file on the ****ty website i have up for the app or just release the source code this weekend. Let me know what you guys think. I want to keep it working in the future b/c most of the other apps have a smaller libraries and I can't find the music that I want.
[EVO 4G General] acrh2:
One big problem with navigation:

If you turn the volume of the speaker up playing music, gps loses satellites. The speaker in the back interferes with the gps radio.

HTC's reply? A complete and utter lie - it's overheating, and we turn off gps for you so the phone doesn't overheat. I tested this just now. It's the speaker or having something to do with the volume of the speaker. Heat in irrelevant in this specific case.

So, first they lie about the fps cap, then they lie about overheating. I'm beginning to get ticked off at these people.

P.S.

Another very small bug - when navigation is active, and you attempt to make a bt call from the bt car kit, screen turns off and the bt car kit starts to beep. I had to push the power button, and then everything worked perfect. Still, a bit annoying.

P.P.S. Oh yeah, stock rooted rom, 3.0 kernel for epson panels.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
Was fine for me on my stock rom. Have you tried it with the actual stock kernel?
[EVO 4G General] acrh2:
Was what fine?
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
What's that? never heard of it.
[EVO 4G General] gatorran:
I have a stock rooted rom and running the gps+pandora radio+receiving phone calls all the time and no problems. I work on the road all day long.
[EVO 4G General] acrh2:
You need to make the volume loud in the external speaker to lose gps.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
funny i use my nav pandora etc etc all day and all together dont have troubles

if your that unhappy you can take it back and get a iphone4 just make sure you have some duct tape
[EVO 4G General] timothydonohue:
why don't you use the car's speakers, instead of the phone's? i plug my phone into the radio, listen to it and adjust the volume through there. i think trying to use the speaker on the phone while i'm in the car would be a horrible experience
[EVO 4G General] acrh2:
How is it HTC's fault that the phone doesn't work?

Are you serious?
[EVO 4G General] acrh2:
By bt car kit doesn't have that option.
[EVO 4G General] trentlythp:
+1 the chuckle of the day

p.p.p.s. I don't have any problems even the volume at max
[EVO 4G General] acrh2:
Do you have headphones plugged into the phone? Or are you playing the music through bt?

As I said earlier, it has to be the external speaker of the phone itself.
[EVO 4G General] jonathaflores:
If your phone is rooted dont blame HTC for nothing, get a life, or an Iphone 4, like i seen so many ppl say my camera doenst work, after i rooted my Evo, cmon ppl, you know what you doing when you rooting your phone.

Ps. I am rooted with everything stock and mines work fine

Pps. Get an Apple phone, Or a motorola , I herd they dont have issues!!!:p
[EVO 4G General] trentlythp:
I use an FM transmitter. So I guess you could classify that as headphones

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=702596
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
I never experienced any of these problems doing the activities you speak of

You said in your post you're using an aftermarket kernel, so how can you blame HTC.
[EVO 4G General] acrh2:
I just tried stock kernel. Same problem.

Go read the other thread. Every single person, who said they didn't have that problem, later confirmed having it after more testing.

Here's how to test it.

Go outside and turn on gps and maps. Walk like 30-40 feet, see how responsive the location marker is (it works instantaneously, both in movement and rotation).

Now switch to the music player, run a fairly loud song, turn volume to maximum. Go back to maps.

It will either say gps lost, or the location marker will be stuck in one place.

Lower the volume to zero or plug in headphones, and gps will work again.
[Desire General] kekkle:
When you put all your music on shuffle, it will sometimes repeat the same song multiple times in the shuffle.

It doesn't take all your songs, throw them in a randow order and then don't touch that list anymore. It keeps shuffling and sometimes you get the same song 2 or 3 times very close after each other. Very annoying.

Is there a way to bypass this? And no, I don't want an other player, I love the default Sense one as it intergrates with the lock screen.
[Desire General] Flaggie:
Well it is actually doing exactly what you ask it, it randomized it every time. For something to be truely random it should also allow for the same thing after each other. That is why for example random on an ipod is not truly random. (but okay this might be a bit off-topic, my apologies for that)
[Desire General] TickyDraconia:
Really, "Shuffle" should mean play tracks in a random order, not play random tracks.

Granted, the second is the "correct" definition, but from a user standpoint, you want the first one - this is what you get on PC Media players like iTunes and Foobar.
[HD2 General] slartibartfasst:
Hi all,

I've done the requisite searches, and as best as I can tell the IPSEC VPN functionality in the HD2 has some critical problems - mostly characterized by connections dropping when VPN data is accessed.

Is there a good pay/free SSL VPN client for our phone/platform? I'm currently running a Windows Server 2008 R2 box, but wouldn't mind springing for an appliance if it's going to make this work reliable and securely.

So for the more experienced WinMo users, would an updated set of libraries from Microsoft maybe help the problems with the built in solution (which doesn't appear to support SSL VPN connections anyways...)?

I'd prefer to work with the standards on this one, so while I realize that people have found effective ways to get VPN access on their HD2s, I'd like to stick to the Microsoft DirectAccess framework.

Regards,

Slarti, mobile networking neophyte

Did see the set of actions for a contact.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] InGeNeTiCs:
Agreed. There was no process manager/task switcher to be found in that video. Not to mention it's just a rendered version and it will perform differently in real life.

Maybe he meant the part where the screen spins like a top and when it stops there's a different app open. That happens when I throw my phone in the air and catch it. Try that.

Download Astro File Manager from the market.

Install it, and its got the option to make a backup of all the apks. when you flash a new rom, all you have to do is install astro once, and then reinstall all of your apps from there.

The only downfall is that you won't get update notifications when updates come out for apps
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubaking182:
the above solution does make a backup of your apks, but there is a .db file somewhere(i forget where) that the market reads to see what you have installed, if you backup and restore that file with each ROM flash(adb pull/push) then you will have your updates when they become available(but make sure that you are pulling/pushing in recovery)

Re: Where do I start....

First of, Congrats on jumping on the Android bandwagon.

Here is a list of things you need to do.

1. Root your hero.

2. Then you need to find a good ROM that fits your needs. Some people like almost no stock apps, some people like all the stock apps on the Sprint Hero. I Have tried almost all the new ROMs that are on XDA and after benchmarking all of them, I have found Purehero 2.1 to be the fastest. it consistently benchmarks at 6300 milliseconds. here is the link for pure hero.

you should download the OC version.

3. But don't take my or anyone's word for it. Try different roms and see what you like. some people like speed, some like visual aspect. i like both and i think purehero is the best there is that gives both.

4. Just search how to root sprint hero in xda and there are several pages that offer help.

5. also search purehero for the ROM
