Newb here with a question

Okay guys,
I have my phone rooted and I have the following loaded:
ota-radio-2_22_19_26l.zip
JFv1.50 ADP1.5
I also have my apps going to my sd card via the guide on here.
I was going to load a custom image and I realized that I didn't have the correct bootloader which I THOUGHT I loaded when I loaded JFv1.50...
It says on my bootloader that I have:
DREA100 PVT 32B
HBOOT-0.98.0000
RADIO-2.22.19.26i
The background of it is red,green, blue, and white...
I thought that I loaded the new bootloader(hardspl) when I rooted my phone before, but I guess I didn't ??? I thought the JF build wouldn't install unless it did...
Can I simply just upgrade it to the new bootloader or will I need to do EVVERYTHING starting from rc29 again ?

Perhaps someone will have better advice, but mine would be to reflash the NBH and then reflash JF's ROM

hardSPL can be flashed without otherwise changing your system
just use utmost caution to ensure the checksum of the update file ON YOUR SDCARD is identical to what is says in the SPL thread. Check it inside the terminal on the phone itself.
also, there is always a chance that flashing an SPL could harm your device.

I think that you need to redo the hardSPL again. Just make sure you read and re-read it before you do it. It's been a long time since I did it but mine read:
Dream PVT 32B ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA10000)
CLPD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.23 [--I like this radio the best]
Hope this helps

Thanks guys !!!
Got it flashed and everything works great !!!

I was gonna suggest that haykuro just released a new version of the hardspl that almost doubles the system partition. 89mb of internal mem!!! Since you were flashing anyways. U can find it on his blog.

problems rot'ing. what do i do wrong? Hero rom.

ok, im kinda lost here. tryed to install this 2 times whitout sucsess. So im here and going to ask for some help, since i realy need it.
My problem is that afther i run the update.zip and rebot the device dont whant to boot/start up. just hang on HTC MAGIC. gave it about 20min the 2. time.
my phone:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO 3.22.20.17
apr20 2009, 12:30:43
So what do i need to do, is my HBOOT and Radio ok to take this step? and i did not find the swapinfo file anywhere on my computer or device.
Thanks in advance for any reply to this post and good work on the theme, just hope i also can enjoy it soon.

You radio is afaik not OK, you should flash a newer version.
EDIT:
Wait, seems to be OK, you should be good to go. I thought it said xxxx.19.xx

HTC Magic - Root, SPL and Radio, Hero ROM Clarification

Newbie Here
My HTC Magic:
Carrier: Cosmo Bulgaria Mobile / Globul
Country: Bulgaria
Configuration:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HDBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.20.17
May 8 2009,21:02:32
Updated: I`ve rooted my Magic following this installation guide: http://theunlockr.com/2009/07/08/how-to-root-your-htc-magic/
daldroid-htcmagic1-signed
daldroid-recovery
I`m not sure if daldroid and nandroid ROMs matters here?
Strange, some of the programs requiring root acces (Like Power Manager) are not working and again asking for root... but others are working properly..
I`ve read all the articles related to the SPL, HTC Hero ROMs etc., but didn`t find specific answer to my in mind question and confirmation if i understand it correctly, so here i am with the specific questions:
According the the above specification of my phone i assume i need first to install this SPL:
Engineering SPL HBOOT-1.33.2005 Signed update.zip (This is the same one as the Haykuro SPL). from this tread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529019
- HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP10000) : Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H : CPLD-12 (Greek)
I`m planning to follow this WiKi guide for the SPL:
1.
Flashing new SPL's and Radios
Push the update.zip file to your SD card or mount the SD card and drag and drop it in your OS:
adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
When you are done pushing it. Start the phone in the recovery mode by turning it off and then start it by hold home+end.
Then in recovery mode scroll down and press apply:update.zip, wait until it has finished and then reboot.
Once i successfully flash the SPL i guess i just need to choose the Hero ROM and then flash it?
For example this guide: http://theunlockr.com/2009/07/21/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-your-htc-magic-including-hero-roms/
I really need you guys to confirm what i`m planning so far or to correct me if i misunderstand something.
I`m really trying hard to read all the articles and to understand what i`m facing and your help will be appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Post your question in the Sapphire general forum. This is the Sapphire android development forum, you aren't trying to develop anything...

Can I throw something out there that's not entirely unrelated to the above post, in the hope the board mods are watching?
I can see both arguments from those in this thread - the OP is asking a question about how to make use of the development that goes on here, whereas Cheesebaron is taking the purist approach. Two to three weeks ago, I was at the same knowledge level as the OP and posted a similarly dumb query on here. A few weeks on I'm merrily contributing by fixing Exchange compatibility on Jerpela's builds. So I would say to those hardcore purists on here, don't scare off the noobs - you don't know what they'll eventually evolve into.
Now speaking personally, looking back to a few weeks ago, I would never even have dreamed of looking on the general board for answers on how to implement the things found on the development board. "General", to my mind, seems to suggest things more like "where can I get a nice case for my Magic?".
The answer? The Dream guys have a Q&A board which is clearly designed for the sort of post that started this thread. We don't. We need one.

Nobody willing to confirm or correct me?
Well looks like i have to brick my phone first and then ask any kind of questions... and maybe... someone like "Cheesebaron" will kick me again `cause it`s not in the right forum...
Thanks anyway...

Here you go.
Get your SPL Here
And this is the guide I like to fallow. It's for the Rogers magic but it should work for you just fine, just make sure you use a ROM for a 32A board.

Thanks man...
I gues i need this SPL: Engineering SPL HBOOT-1.33.2005 Signed update.zip
`Couse i`ve already saw a guy with the same Board and Radio bricking his phone using this one: Modded HBOOT-1.33.2004 by Crios Signed update.zip

Here's what I did.
I followed this recipe found at http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1545226
Then used this ROM instead of the suggested fatal1ty one. http://www.4shared.com/file/118776501/c759bba3/myhero-008.html
I have the exact same board as you.
I have no problems whatsoever, and the ROM seems the fastest and most stable I have tried. No overclocking needed.

Can you tell me which ROM is that and a link to the thread of discussion? I`ll be happy to read all about it.
Thanks

32B Radio
Im finding that with my 32B magic that I keep losing the network signal and it doesnt automatically re-connect to the network when the signal comes available again, I have to select airplane mode and then turn airplane mode off.
I think at some point I may have flashed my radio but in all honesty Ive lost all track of what ive flashed
currently im using
62.50s.20.17h_2.22.19.26I
and NK02s latest ION rom
Is anyone else having this prob or know where I can get a download of the 32B radio?

Non Newb w/ a newbie question =)

I fell off the face of the planet when it comes to updating my phone. I followed directions a long time ago to convert my mytouch 32a to a 32b device and also downgraded the spl (i believe thats what it was)
My question is:
Im looking to put another rom on here, this isnt as easy as it was w/ the g1 i had used for a while.
Im wondering how to properly flash this rom to my phone. Do i just do a normal wipe and flash?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575501
im very familiar w/ adb and commands, just let me know the proper process needed and that should do it really. Just dont want to brick my phone due to something i SHOULDNT have did (something with the spl not being right, if i remember im on the 2005 that was needed due to the unrootable spl that was shipped w/ the phone, goldcard method).
***EDIT***
forgot to mention clearly that i am running cyanogens last rom right before googles butt in.
If this steps on anyones toes, sorry.

If your just trying to update the rom, do a wipe then update the rom, not gonna brick it unless your doing spl... be sure to nandroid before...

what spl do you have right now? haykuros 1.33.2005? what rom do you want to flash?

Ohh and it is much easier than when I first did it with the G1.. so relax, take your time, look at what rom you need, research the recovery rom as you didnt mention it.

to tell what spl you just boot the phone with power and back then read from the top

im using the 2005 haykuro i believe, the one that you used through tutorials to get rid of the unrootable spl. I am using the RAv1.2.1g recovery.
the whole "wiping and flashing" isnt a problem with a nadroid backup. Only thing confusing me is this 32a and 32b. Since i "converted" im confused as to how dedicated these for functionality.

well when you boot into fastboot what pvt board does it say? i would ask around because i didnt know you could change pvt boards...this could either be a BIG THING or it couldnt matter...
