nope nothin
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
i gotta get to work ill be off in 4 hours. 9pm cst. ill be back then. thank u all for ur help so far. lets get this going tonight!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
I dunno what to tell you about it not working. Make sure you can boot back into your ROM. If you can, you'll need to root using the goldcard method, which can be found in my signature.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
yeah the phone is usable for now. no other way besides goldcard? i dont have a laptop that has a sd card port.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
or u can show me where the recovery image is?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
You can do everything you need to with the SD card in your phone. I dunno what you mean by "where the recovery image is". You may be able to manually install it from terminal now that I think about it. Download "Terminal Emulator" from the market. Download Amon Ra's 1.7.0-G recovery and put it on the root of your SD card. The, open terminal and type the following:

su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

EDIT: Now that I REALLY think about it. What's the alternate recovery that ROM Manager is flashing?? Is it Amon Ra 1.7.0-G or 1.7.0-H?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bozboy:
followed all steps... but after the system reboot my phone just boots up with a red vodafone screen and nothing happens.. even after 15 mins.. nothing happens..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Which time when you rebooted? What's your phone's fastboot information? Which kernel did you download?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Clockz:
The superoneclick program just went (Not Responding) after a few seconds while it said waiting for device.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
You didn't install the drivers properly or you've got the wrong drivers installed. With your phone plugged in go to Start->Control Panel->Device Manager->Find your phone under ADB devices or see if there's any "Unknown Devices"->Right-click->Select Uninstall Driver. Then unplug and plug your phone back in.

SAPPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G

HBOOT-1.33.0013 (SAPP10000)

RADIO-2.22.28.25

OCT 21 2009 ,22:33:27

So i've downloaded this one:

"If you have 32B or if you have a headphone jack and your radio is NOT 2.22.27.08 - mytouch 32B OC/UV Kernel"

rebooted at 23.40 at 0.00 still not finished..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pito444:
thanx for the recovery btw i cant find rom manager on 1.5 market i tried 4shared but says i cant install on my phone any other alternative to use instead of rom manager
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] scott4:
Hi!

It says "This service is temporarily not available from your service area." when I download below files. Do you have another link? or can send me through msn? Thanks!

CyanogenMod 6.1.0-DS

Google Add-on for CM 6.1

Ohsaka Super Wipe

myTouch 32A OC/UV Kernel
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
By time I meant which step were you at when you rebooted.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
ROM Manager manual install. You'll need to grab "AppInstaller" from the market to install it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bozboy:
STEP 9:

9. After flashing all the files, back out to the main menu again and select "Reboot system now". It will take about 5-10 minutes for your phone to boot the first time. Once your in, enjoy.

Then I waited.. 15 mins but nothing happened.. just the red vodafone splash screen.. the whole time..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Try going back, flash superwipe, CM 6.1, and Google Apps, then reboot. Let me know if it works.

So DO NOT flash the kernel.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pito444:
for some reason it says rom manager cant be installed on this phone
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Clockz:
I have a quick question, Do i need to leave the files unziped into root of sd? Or Zip, Because of them having files the same?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] l0lcats:
zipped :D

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Clockz:
I've read through the thread and couldnt find the answer. Step 7 didnt work for me. Got an error.

Nvm it works now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 89gotballz:
Just finished up my third one today. Got my wifes, her friend, my little sister and my nephews done this week. I skip using superclick and do it the other way.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 89gotballz:
This here is steep by step what I have been doing

ONLY GOOD FOR THE FENDER AND 1.2 Mytouch (has the 3.5mm jack)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Clockz:
Seems like im in the same boot loop as lolcats was in.

OKAY NVM AGAIN LOL

I did this and it worked. Thankyou! You're my hero Bro.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] l0lcats:
:(

I went this route: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=920278

Grab the latest rom from the link in the thread then flash ohsaka, the rom, then google apps. Worked for me. But I would love to get CM working.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
1.7.0-H,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
So it wasn't working because you selected the wrong device type in ROM Manager.

As for terminal, double check that you didn't rename the file and that it is on your SD card and that the SD card isn't mounted to the computer still.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Those steps will only work for the myTouch 1.2/Fender. If you don't have one of those it will likely brick your phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
You need to manually upgrade to 1.6 or if you wait until I can get to my computer I'll tell you how to do everything from terminal instead.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
i got the recovery screen i hit nand backup

but i noticed it says

Build Ra -Sapphire-v1.7. OG

is that good or bad i dont wanna proceed with the next set of instructions until u give me the ok
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
That's the one you should be using
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
so its safe to proceed?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
says can't open /sd/card/su-2.3.1-bin-signed.zip (bad)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
ok i resotred my back up maybe i didnt put the kernel in there let me try again
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
I DID IT I GOT CYANOGEN MOD. I HAVE A SOLUTION FOR THE "CAN'T FLASH"

PM ME.

I WILL BE SENDING YOU 15$ ON TUESDAY (PAYDAY) I PROMISE YOU. i will be here to help with all people who cannot Flash_image file. i have a workaround i created.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Just post the workaround here and we'll see about adding it to the guide.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
well for users who are unable to flash the recovery

go to your rom manger

click on "back up current rom"

just push ok

ur phone will restart

and automatically take u to the recovery console. but dont forget to flash your recovery using clockwork .

also what i did was take your image file.

and copy it to the clockwork folder where the recovery is. ( i dont remember the file path) i jus renamed your "recovery.img" to the name clockwork gave me deleted clockworks recovery .img and used urs. thats the steps i did. maybe u can break it down easier
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Well the reason that flashing the recovery from ROM Manager didn't work for you was because you selected the wrong device type. It was trying to flash AmonRa 1.7.0-H which is for pure 32A devices. For 32B phones and for those with the headphone jack, you need AmonRa 1.7.0-G. When it flashed the -H recovery, it over-wrote the stock recovery and put that one. Since it was the wrong recovery, you can't even boot into it.

As for you trying to flash the recovery from terminal, I dunno what you were doing wrong, but if you didn't change the file name and did put it on your SD card, and then ran the command without having the SD card mounted, it should have worked.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
lol well that makes sense. man this is amazing i am so greatful for ur help and patience.. truely a good soul.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
No worries. If you find that CM 6.1 becomes unstable after a little bit of use (like I did), you can also try out this ROM, which is a themed/rooted version of the 2.2 update. Just flash it from recovery.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
everyone follow the udpated directions ..througouly i am logged on here alot throught the day and will answer any questions Donjuan can't
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] l0lcats:
I read the updated guide. I guess CM6.1 is out of the question now?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Not out of the question. After following this guide, people can start flashing any custom ROM they want.

Speaking of which. I think I figured out how to get CM 6.1 on your phone. Hit me up on Google Talk or MSN @ Bob692006@gmail.com
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] l0lcats:
I noticed that the kernel is no longer linked. Would it be safe to assume that one could place ohsaka, cm6.1, and google apps on their SD card and flash into 6.1? As in 6.1 already contains the needed kernel?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Yes and no. The kernel in CM 6.1 will give you a green tint so you have to flash a new kernel to get rid of it. The problem isn't the kernel, the problem seems to be something with the update and running this rooting procedure, but I haven't figured it out yet. I've got a new method that I think will work though. The problem is that I only have the necessary files for the other method to work on the original myTouch 3G/Fender/1.2. I dunno if it'll work on the European phones.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:
im running smooth
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Clockz:
I have a question about flashing another ROM in the future.

1. Would i have to go back to Rom manager and flash the Clockworkmod recovery instead of Amon Ra's, or is is the same?

2. What about the kernel? Do i use the same one from this guide for all of the other ROMs?

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
There is no longer a kernel unless you have a 32A device. No you don't have to flash ClockWorkMod unless you plan on installing the ROM using ROM Manager. If you go back and manually install the ROM as you do in the guide, you won't need ClockWorkMod.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Clockz:
Oh alright, Thankyou.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pito444:
alright so since rom manager cant be installed on my phone i downloaded a terminal app but when i press "SU" it says permission denied also superuser doesnt pop up and yes my phones rooted. Any other way to flash recovery thats all i need because all other files plus recovery.img are already on sd just need the recovery to start off
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Do you have SuperUser installed? It should be in your app drawer. If not, download/install it from the market.

su

flash_image recovery recovery.img

Reboot.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pito444:
yea i have superuser when i type "su" says permission denied
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Then your not rooted. Run Universal Androot again and then try typing "su" in terminal again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pito444:
i clicked do not install superuser on uni androot i then installed superuse off market

ran better terminal typed "SU" this pops up

says BTEP for a second then

$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH

$SU

SSU : permission denied

$
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Download Titanium backup and see if it also gives you an error. You may need to also install BusyBox, which you can also do with Titanium backup. Just hit the problems buttons and it should install it for you. Then you can retry flashing the recovery.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:

I've tried all the solutions on superoneclick had phone turned off waited for device turned phone on turned off debugging then turned back on and everything ive read ive tried.

PLEASE HELP!

Oh and also i did that thing you told another person to do about getting phone back to stock where you download and rename a file SAPPIMG.zip and go to hboot and try to load it well it said no image and other random things about it not finding an image and it was named SAPPIMG with a .zip file extension it was .zip.zip i already have windows configured to show the file extension so that wasnt the problem and i also downloaded the same file from both the links you had posted and both didnt work.

I would do it the gold card way but that guide is long and all over the place plus i dont have a card to make a gold card or a usb adapter
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] freshkid87:

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
What he said.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Clockz:
So i did the Nand backup for my stock update before rooting. I was just wondering what if for some reason i was crazy enough to want to go back to it, would i just go into recovery and restore? Or is it more complicated?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Nope, you got it. Go back into recovery. Go to "Backup/Restore" and just select the restore option for whichever method you used. If you used Nandroid, just go to "Restore Nand Backup"...etc.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] rfunderburk39:

any help?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Yeah quite a few people have been getting them trying to flash CM and CM based ROM's over the 2.2.1 update. You may need to downgrade to 1.6, root, and then flash CM if you really want it. I can post some guidance if you would like.

Decided to do it anyways. This is only for T-Mobile 32B devices. It may work on other pure 32B devices, but I can't say for sure and will not guarantee it. This will remove the 1.33.0013 SPL and 2.22.28.25 radio and put you back stock. You will need carrier data access (not wifi) to do this. I'll put instructions on getting those back at the end. This doesn't require an SD adapter and a way to plug it into your computer (either via an SD card slot or USB adapter), but it would make the process easier.

1. If your using Windows, go to Control Panel->Folder Options->Make sure that "Hide known file extensions" is NOT checked.

2. Go here and download the "sappimg.nbh", "update1.zip", "update2.zip", and "Universal Androot.apk" files.

3. Put all the files on the root of your SD card (this means put them on your SD card but not in a folder).

4. With the phone off, boot into hboot by holding volume down+power.

5. A screen will come up, you'll see a few lines of text, then on the last line you should start seeing a progress bar in the upper right-hand corner. The phone is checking the sappimg file.

6. When the check is done, it'll ask you to hit action to continue (Action is pressing the trackball). Hit the trackball to continue.

7. You'll see a few more progress bars, then the phone will ask you to press "Action" to reboot, do as it says.

8. When you get to the Google activation screen, just turn the phone back off. (Or if you need the phone for SD card access, sign in, to do the next step, then power off)

9. Mount your SD card to the computer and rename "update1.zip" to "update.zip".

10. With the phone turned off, boot into recovery holding home+power until you see a triangle with an exclamation point and a phone. Hit home+power again to bring up the menu.

11. First select "Wipe data/factory reset" and then select "Apply update.zip from SD card".

12. Reboot and let the phone get to the Google activation screen again, then turn it off. (Again, if you need the phone for SD card access, sign in, to do the next step, then power off)

13. Mount your SD card to your computer again, delete the "update.zip" file and rename "update2.zip" to "update.zip".

14. Do steps #10-12 again, but this time when you get to the Google activation screen, sign in.

15. Download/install "AppInstaller" from the market and open it.

16. Select the "Universal Androot.apk" from the menu and install it.

17. Open Universal Androot, and select the root option.

18. When complete, reboot.

19. Do steps #6-#9 in the first page of this thread.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] timnepo:
DonJuan, thanks indeed! I'' try it out and let you know!

BTW data connection is OK, just figured out APN settings a little bit to make them working...

Could you explain also which models/files should I use during #6-9 steps in first page of this thread for Fender?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Just grab the CM and Google Apps file from the first post and flash those from recovery as explained. You can change ROMs later on if you want but just make sure that you don't flash any new SPLs or radios unless they are explicitly for the 1.2/Fender. I'll put another post later on how to do just that later.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] irri:
the link for google add on for CM 5.0.8 in the first post is not working, the file has been deleted . any other link to google add on?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] metalrabbbit:

5. Back on the computer, locate the SuperOneClickv*.zip file and extract it to a folder (make sure you know where). Navigate to that folder, and open the SuperOneClick.exe. Once it starts up, hit the "Root" button.

and then SuperoneClick ( not responding) on the top of the program.
