Hi everyone.. i have been searching and searching for an answer to this but i havn't been able to find it anywhere..
i can't get abd to work on my computer for some reason and i followed the tutorials step by step.. anyhow all i want is to load the new radio
is there a way to flash the radio on the g1 using another method rather then the abd shell way?
please any help would be greatly appreciated..
Mindbener
you download the radio. name to it update.zip. place it in the sd card. reboot using Home+ power. Hit alt+s. wait for it to update. push home+back and your done.
hey thanks a lot i can't believe that its sooo simple.!!!

I rooted my buddy's 32B yesterday took five minutes
I used oneclick method.
I used it myself, too.
But remember to write the correct name in flashrec and not what it says on the unlockr.com
for example. / sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2G.img

thanks so much, but im not understand one thing, what say theunlockr that not is correct?and i will rename the recovery?
anyone have any suggestions? please
What he wanted to say is that you should write the name of your recovery image instead of writing the same thing that they wrote at theunlockr.com
correct
Download http://zenthought.org/content/project/flashrec Install it on your phone.
Download http://rapidshare.com/files/320335181/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2G.img on your memory card.
Then, click on the empty text box in the FlashRec program and type:
/ sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2G.img
Then click on the Flash Recovery Custom Image button and wait for it to finish.
Turn off the phone and turn it on into Recovery mode by holding down Home and Power
And you will have root access
Hope this helps

When i try to root my magic i get an error on that part: Then click on the Flash Recovery Custom Image button and wait for it to finish. Invalid image.
what can i do to make an valid backup?
This is most likely because you already have a custom recovery image, please use one of the unrooting procedures to get back to the original recovery image and THEN you can use this procedure.
Also, instead of doing that, if you have root access, you can just put the recovery image on your SD card then go into Terminal (download it from the Market if you don’t already have it) and type:
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.5.3.img

Will it work ?? i'm about to go nuts couse it's not working
I hope it will work.
I had the same problem when I rooted my phone, but I can not remember what I
did. Take it easy. read some http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/29/how-to-root-the-htc-magic-in-one-click/:)
i have tried that guide too that you are linkin to without success
I'm lost and i don't know what to do hehe
Try to press outside the field you type
/ sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.3G.img on the right or Left side I can not remember then you will see an x, press, then phone of. the power and home
It is not so important to make your own recovery img. as long as you have some ROMs, for your phone sdcard that you can flash.

thanks for the tip, driving already tried, but the problem remains the downgrade
1.5 ... cupcake after the update with sappimg.nbh. always writes "main version is older" so this guide does not work either .....
I have the same problem as you it's driving me nuts the perfected spl 1.33.0007 and donut is an uncrackable combination it appears
it's getting to the point where I'd pay someone to get my phone rooted it's useless for custom roms at the moment which is one of the main reasons I bought the phone
Hey guys, today i attempted to root my HTC MAGIC 32A, and install KingKlick's 2.1 Eclair with HTC Sense for Magic v1.1. The rooting went fine, and i partitioned the sd card using the recovery tool (I followed this guide and used the downloads in that: www~theunlockr~com/2009/08/29/how-to-root-the-htc-magic-in-one-click/) for some reason, the device wont boot, and i tried wiping and reinstalling the update rom, with no success, it just stalls at the boot screen. Now i see that i did make the mistake of not updating my radio, which is at 3.22~ something, and im not sure my sd card was CAT 6. so i dont know what to do know. I can still access the recovery root menu , and was wondering what is the next step from here, or how do i return to the stock 1.5 cupcake firmware.
Anybody's insight is greatly appreciated

I don't know whether the unrevoked3 could work under 0.83,
it's confirmed that it could not work under 0.92.
You don't need unrevoked. This update.zip is applied using the stock recovery.
Hi lollylost100,
I'm just trying your instructions above to recover my desire.
I don't seem to get anything on the screen at any stage of the above.
Is this correct?
If so, I must just be pressing the wrong buttons in the wrong order as I've not been able to recover my device.
Well if you downgraded using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745903 then you should be able to upgrade using the method in first post. Nothing will be displayed on the screen. You just have to follow the instructions without the screen.
I downgraded by creating a gold card and then running the ruu.exe for 1.21.
When I could not get the screen working I applied
RUU_Bravo_H3G_UK_1.22.771.1_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127568_signed
in the same way.
When I tried to downgrade using the RUU for a SLCD version, I get the bootloader incorrect version.
Am I screwed?
Try the HBOOT downgrade method again and then apply the fix in the first post.
It's because the file from first post is: OTA_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8-1.21.405.2_release4dua3bcrut4wrv30.zip
2.09.405.8-1.21.405.2 - from 1.21.405.2 to 2.09.405.8 (WWE).
I have a goldcard I created at the start of all this but I can't create a new one as I get 'failed to get CID' using gold card tool 0.0.5.
I'm guessing this is because the device is not in the correct mode anymore?
Do I need to generate a new goldcard image based on where I am ?
Well done lollylost100!!!
My phone is okay but thanks just the same. I'm sure a lot of people will find this very useful.
wait, where can i get the update.zip ?

You need to read more carefully
edit: well damn you for being faster!
okay, now i know where is the update.zip.. after applying the update.zip, how many minutes should i wait? for the installation?
i dont have to be rooted right and isnt glodcard is only for branded Desire? cos, installing rom spos to be rooted and use ClockWorkMod? hmm. sorry for being such a noob. im just panic please..
Theoretically goldcard is only for branded phones. You don't need to be rooted. You should wait about 30 mins after applying update.zip just to be on the safe side.
Very nice. Well done!
Congrats to everyone with working screens now

Hi yuzz..nice too see Bruneian in this forum, i thought i'm the only one...sry for the off topic
Talz, do you have this kind of problem to?
Some extra information:
It is also possible to recover using a stock RUU. This may be useful if you want to run 2.1 instead of upgrading to 2.2, or you want to upgrade later.
The RUU that is compatible with SLCD phones is here:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...1.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_137222_signed.exe
To run this, make sure your goldcard is inserted and start the phone in fastboot mode (hold back key and power button).
If you get a 140 error when running this, you will probably have to use the update.zip method for FroYo (of course if you do want FroYo you don't need to worry about this).
You don't mind if I include this in first post?
Hello,
First of all thanks for the awesome easy guide !!
This is the first time I am rooting my HTC Tbolt and have had an issue to start with.
Used the instructions in the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1401959
After I download the 2.11.605.5 downgrade zip, I rename it, put in on the SD Card and go to HBOOT and it installs the downgrade just fine.
But at the end of this process, when I try to get the MR4 Radio onto the SD Card and install it, it simply does not happen. HBoot checks for the file, finds it, but nothing happens. I have renamed in properly and followed instructions to the dot.
I also noticed a ***LOCKED*** right on top of the screen and I think this could be an issue.
Can I go ahead and proceed with the Revolutionary Root Technique ? Would this be possible at this point ?
Is there anyway I can get Flash the MR4 Radio before I actually root ?
Also, would I be able to flash the MR4 Radio onto my device after Rooting ?
Any help is much appreciated !
Thanks in advance !
Cheers !
Root First then Flash away

Hello all, I apologize if this or similar has been posted ahead of time. I've have been searching the forums and Google for the past 4 days trying to figure this out. I'm lost...
Just to be known, I am not a "complete" noob on rooting/hacking phones. I am however a noob on this Sensation..
So a few days ago I got this phone. I had all intentions of running rooted custom roms. I've followed every turtorial I could find on it. I see there were two ways: Through SDK and the All-in-one kit v1.0
I tried using the SDK first... the problem I had with it was I would get a "failed to fetch URL"
So I would have to close down. Then after that I couldn't get "revision 5" to load up to tick on it.
Obviously it wasn't working correctly or somthing was wrong with drivers? I did install HTC Sync AND latest Java.
I dunno?
Next I went to use the All-In-One toolkit
Seemed better and easier. I went through the steps of unlocking the Bootloader - DONE!
Next I went to flash recovery.. Well I got stuck. It wouldn't load.
Well this next step is probably where I went wrong...
I was trying to move clutter off my desktop and was clicking on things... I happen to hit the "Stock kernel" button. Wouldn't be a problem except the tool kit is used for the HTC One X (although it is said to also be used for the Sensation). I'm thinking maybe I loaded thr One X kernel?
Basically, after that I am stuck on the HTC wite screen. I can get into bootloader, Fastboot, and now CWMrecovery (although recovery is giving me issues too. Can't mount USB and half the time wont run SuperWipe, will say aborted status 1 and sometimes 7)
There is current rom in the phone so I cannot boot into anything and I wasn't able to do "perm root" because of my accident.
I'm stuck and I've run out of options. Is it bricked? What can I do to get back to stock to atleast start over and get S-OFF?
I do have the OTA ICS update 1.27 if that helps.
Please, any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

first flash 4ext recovery then is easy
Thanks for replying back so quickly! That is the actual thread I've been trying to follow. My problem with it is I can't get command prompt to work right? I follow the directions but every time I keep getting "not found" in the directories. Is it something on my comp I'm not doing right?

if you are trying to flash 4ext recovery then did you open the command prompt in the folder where adb and fastboot files are located?
if yes then did you have installed htc drivers?
best wishes
big mistake that you used kernel from that tool
i used the same tool to root my device but never flashed that kernel because it is for one x
never do steps that are not mentioning
