Currently using obsidian v4 (Snagged it before it was taken down. Works great for me, but will probably reflash when it goes back up.)

Staying with Final until a 2.2 rom with acceptable (IE: more than a day) battery life comes along.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hagisbasheruk:
Follow instructions , it is a method,not 1 file

I didn't say it was an official Vodafone update but rather i said it was a method using official Updates,they just happen to be for My Touch 3G :P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hagisbasheruk:
2 x faster

2 times faster without any speed fixes or overclocking,still a little lag but much better
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gremsems:
Oke, call me thick if you want, but I still don't understand why this is any more special than the other phones that have flashed 2.2.1

The means of getting the update on none mytouch phones was already known. What have changed, or not changed for that matter?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hagisbasheruk:
WHERE

Where i have no seen any posts for Using Official AOSP 2.2 OTA Update on a UK HTC MAGIC

Google search " Official AOSP 2.2 OTA Update on a UK HTC MAGIC" and you will get tis post

No One has said anything on Vodaphone UK Forums about this for UK HTC MAGIC !!

Except ME
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gremsems:
Good for you.

EVERYONE already knows that a 32b magic could be updated to 2.2 because it is already stated so on page 1 of the 'official 2.2' thread! The fact that this is a UK Vodafone doesn't matter for on bit as it is a 32b, and so could be updated by anyone which had looked through de thread weeks ago!!

Great that you brought UK Vodafone updates to everyones attention, but like I said before, it's NOTHING new!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] em666:
if i have a stock soft rooted (universal androot) magic from vodafone, do i need to flash all those thinkgs before flashing the 2.2.1 official update???
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hagisbasheruk:
Yes, as you need recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img installed via an engeneers SPL so you can do a Nandroid backup incase you want to go back or mess things up and as it complain's about signature, so you need to have engineers SPL so you can downgrade to the My Touch 3G DONUT OTA also

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nutweevil:
Have you tried CM6.1? Which battery is better? This ROM or CM6.1?

What I find is that with CM, when I don't use the phone the battery barely changes, but when I satay to use the phone, each minute I lose about 1% per minute. The phone is 1 month old, so it shouldn't be battery problems...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SkinnerY2K:
Hi,

I really want 2.2 on my HTC Vodafone Magic 32B.

I currently have Ra-amon 1.6 on it and was wandering how long it would take to update it using this process?

Also would I still need to go through the whole process or is there a stage I could pick up from because I already rooted my fone and have 1.6 installed?

Was thinking of trying it tomorrow if I get time so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Skinner
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hagisbasheruk:
Haven't Used CM6.1 so cant comment

Just read over everything , if you have a recovery setup thats great ,you need Engineers SPL too

Downgrade to Cupcake then 1.6 OTA

Then follow the rest :)

Takes some time just let every update reboot and leave for a min just to be safe :) HAVE FUN
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alexl45:
ok eventually

Hello everyone,

I too am stuck with Vodafone UKs total waste of space customer service,

who either can't or won't upgrade our handsets.

Rather than be stuck with an operating system full of security risks I decided to risk my hand at upgrading the phone myself.

I was able to follow the instructions on this thread , including some help from the info in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=756918

I wasn't able to get past My Touch 3G DOWNGRADE TO DONUT OTA:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=807899

as I couldn't get the Official AOSP 2.2 OTA to download.

So I put in my google username and password, hit menu and got wireless settings and put in details for vodafones APN and was at least able to get use of the phone again, albeit minus the vodafone branding.

I connected to my wifi router and copied some apps I had backed up to my sd card and then received a notification about an update ready for my phone,

allowed it to do it's stuff and am now using Android 2.2.1 :)

Have to say it was a bit hairaising at times as I thought it wasn't going to work,

including being unable to access recovery as it wouldn't see the sd card :confused:

got there in the end though ;)

thanks to hagisbasheruk and all others on xda-developers who provided the original work that I was able to copy.

Phone works much better now, batterylife, wifi access seems better, slicker menus and does kind of feel like a new phone, camera is way cooler than it was,

try it you might like it, though you will have to do a bit of reading and fretting ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SkinnerY2K:
Thanks will hopefully get round to it this weekend! I may be on tomorrow pulling my hair out, but hopefully not.

Thanks again
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SkinnerY2K:

Look at the thread name does it say Official VodaFone ?

No it says using official AOSP 2.2 OTA
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hooddy:
yes, obviously I was wrong. so how can i update to official vodafone 2.2.1 Froyo? I have Italian Magic
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hagisbasheruk:
UPDATE : ISSUED YESTERDAY , i think i put the pressure on VodaFone :)

Android 2.2.1 (Froyo) is now available to Vodafone HTC Magic customers

Android 2.2.1 will give customers a number of improvements including: latest Gmail and Android Market clients; ability to save applications directly onto an SD card; support for USB tethering so the phone can be used as a modem; improved support for Active Sync Exchange (email, contacts and calendar sync); enhancements to Bluetooth; and enhancements to the camera. The update also includes the latest Google security patches.

How will customers get the latest software?

Customers' devices will receive an automatic notification when the update is available for their handset. They can then choose to accept the update by following the on screen prompts or perform it later.

The roll out of the software is phased, so not all customers will receive this notification at once.

Because it is quite a large update, we’d recommend customers carry it out over WiFi, although it is possible to download it over 3G or GPRS.

The update is a two step download which will be triggered by automatic notification to the customer's handset. The first step will change the bootloader. The second step will install FroYo after the phone has rebooted.

Checking software versions

To check which version of software the HTC Magic has:

1. Press the menu key, then touch "Settings", scroll down to and touch "About phone"

2. The software version will be displayed here

sure i knew it. but i just wanna ask next thing:

for now i have T-Mobile myTouch 3G 2.2.1.

if i downgrade to official stock Vodafone 1.6 Donut from Vodafone Italy will i get OTA update to 2.2.1 Froyo from Vodafone UK?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hagisbasheruk:
No you will have to wait for VodaFone Italy to get their act together go bug the hell out of them for an answer like we have done here in UK. Feel free to use my VodaFone UK Forum link in correspondence to them. Phone your country's phone regulator and explain that they are with holding security updates (I think this is what worked for us when i called OFCOM and explained

)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hooddy:
thanx a lot 4 ur answer. so for now i stay on myTouch rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Dark_Elf:
Otherwise you may flash the official Vodafone UK 1.6 and the official SPL and get the update for the UK Magic :P

Dark_Elf thank u too but i am not Italian but Russian (so sorry for my ugly english), i only have Italian Magic. and link that u gave is for T-Mobile which i have on my phone and for this have manual here on forum.

i think i need UK Official ROM 1.6 for 32B for OTA updates from Vodafone UK but i can't find it here
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] popester0:
---------------------------

Try googling for:

RUU_Sapphire_Vodafone_UK_1.91.161.1_DRC92_signed_NoDriver.exe

This should reset a Vodafone UK Magic back to the stock Vodafone image, then you will have to go through all the upgrade steps to get to 2.2.1!!

Remember this is a RUU so you will lose root and any custom recovery and probably restore a perfected SPL.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hooddy:
popester0 thanx i find this one but i have Italian Magic so i think i need to some trick to install this into my phone. can i install this one simply put .nbh file from RUU on sd-card and flash under fastboot?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Dark_Elf:
Yes the guide is for the T-Mobile, but there should be no difference.

You should flash the official Vodafone UK 1.6 via recovery, then flash an official SPL and finally reboot the phone and get the OTA update to 2.2.1
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hooddy:
oh yes i mean recovery. tell me plz which SPL i must flash to UK rom?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Dark_Elf:
I'm not sure, it should be the same of T-Mobile, but watch out because it's a Perfect SPL!

I see that in the first post of this thread there is a guide to install the ROM if you have a rooted phone. This method would be much less risky ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hooddy:

Haha, thanks for this info but Vodafone has taken too damn long to introduce this update. I have a perfectly steady and beautiful custom GiO's Froyo running now on my Magic and definitely would not change it to the ugly bloated vodafone firmware.

It gives me absolutely no benefit.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] keinengel:
STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING! The official 2.2.1 from Voda UK is only for 32B devices. Trying to apply it to your 32A will install a non-functional combination of radio and SPL, which means your phone will be broken. Just update to CyanogenMod 6.1.1, that's all you need.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] antonioj:
Well...i´m not using swap, or compcache or anything of that sort, and the phone seems to be faster than using all that stufff. Also no more random reboots. I guess it´s perfect for people that don´t want to spend their life flashing ROMs

Please close /delete this thread now as it is no longer required and has served it't purpose.

Now I am stuck with a Hero, which I can only use with headset attached.

Can someone please help me with a toggler for Froyo, or even better, tell me what the **** is going on with my Hero, and how I could fix it? Somewhere here on the forum I read about screwing it open, and mess with some wires, but I don't have the proper screwdriver yet.
