Port new rom to 32a magic....

looks like there is a new update for hero phones...can it be ported for 32a boards?
http://android.modaco.com/content/h...018/02-09-1-5-modaco-custom-hero-rom-is-here/

I don't understand what's so special about this ROM.
I was reading the description and among all there's one application (that you can get it apart of this ROM) and that's it..
I know who can port it, I don't but, why you want it so much?

Is this the update that made hero smoother?
You linked to a ROM that has nothing to do with hero update.

Invalid link source.
That doesn't have much to do with the described topic.
I was willing to provide some assistance, however - I was misled.
Thanks, but no thanks.

How to get eclair on rogers htc magic 32A

Hey I have been looking for roms to use for my magic. I have looked through forums and has had a hard time understanding specifically what I need and how to install such roms. Rogers has mad it extremely difficult and if any rogers customers have figured out how to change roms can someone please explain to me in detail. I am running windows 7 also if that is important and im running 1.5 android.
Thanks,
Any help would me much appreciated.

follow that and it will guide you through everything.. if you want eclair i believe cyanongens mod is eclair based..
good luck

I have tried to before and it did not work. For the rogers phone I dont think you are able to flash. Any suggestion?

worked for me :S

hmm ... for the flask apk. part I click on the site right and then where do I go from there. Maybe im downloading the wrong file?

I also have the CM-4.2.12.1 on my Rogers HTC Magic and it works great.

I am using a Rogers Magic and already used the method from unlockr.com. Its works great and easy; just make sure you download all the file to the root of the sd card.
Good luck!

Wait for official release its coming

If it makes a difference, Cyan is donut based with bits of Eclair... solid rom though and definitely recommend it

Cyanogen rom is for 32B not for 32A as asked
Prefer to wait for htc release

I've also got cyanogen rom working fine on two rogers htc magic phones..
by following the steps http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/29/how-to-root-the-htc-magic-in-one-click/ (as suggested to you previously) I dont know if it made a difference but i used the earlier ver. of flashrec http://zenthought.org/system/files/asset/2/flashrec-1.1.2-20090909.apk
..hope this helps ..good luck

Check out the cyanogenmod wiki. Specifically, read this article:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_Rogers_Dream_EBI1_to_CyanogenMod
This will work. Remember that you can only run 32A ROMs, or, like with cyanogenmod, you have to flash a 32A port file after flashing the correct 32B ROM. Read through that wiki, it should help 100%.

As many have already reported. It is not rogers making it harder. Rooting is dead simple on magic and then you can use any 32a Rom you want. Delete the files. Remember to follow them exactly. If they say to unzipped it, but if they don't mention unzipping the file....leave it. Probably one of the most common mistakes....yet one of the easiest ti fix.
Running cursorsense 1. 0 because 1.6 doesn't have as pretty of an interface and Google goggles and pretty crumby navigation were not worth it.

[KITCHEN] Basic ROM kitchen for aspiring Magic cooks [PC/MAC]

Hi guys,
Over at the HTC Hero forum I have been developing a kitchen to help ordinary people learn how to build their own ROM. It allows you to do basic things such as rooting a shipped ROM, adding apps2sd, modifying the task killer memory threshold, etc.
The appropriate settings are now in place to make it work for the Magic.
Here is the link to the kitchen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
Before you flash your new custom ROM made from this kitchen, please make a Nandroid backup first of your existing ROM!
Thank you, and enjoy!

Just a question - is there a Wiki page which lists all the shipped ROMs available for the Magic? I couldn't find any on my own. I only found the ones at the htc.com site.

...
Hi man, i just want to thank you for your kitchen, i dont know a answer to your question
but i want to reserve this post,
my plan is to make a short instruction on how to port a rom from hero, using your kitchen... (hope its ok with you)
not a full how to, but som guidence... cause i am still learning and still making many misstakes...
But i am gonna try to make my best.
I DONT HAVE TIME TO MAKE IT NOW... LATER.

That's a good idea, and that also gives me another idea for the kitchen.
Usually when we port a ROM from another device, we just replace the other device's boot.img-kernel with our own device's boot.img-kernel. Although there may be issues with driver incompatibility, this is the general way to get the ROM booting. (Also you have to make sure you use the correct base address when using mkbootimg)

Wow
sorry it's off topic but damn good to see dsixda over here on android. I remember your roms from my diamond and elfin. Now i think a nexus one is my next device if you're cooking for em lol. As for the kitchen i think this is an amazing idea to get some more chefs in the game.

Hey man, I remember you ;-) The kitchen is working for Nexus One. However, I'm not cooking ROMs this time because public ROMs are too much work when you want to satisfy hundreds of people at once The kitchen will take the load off the cooks and also provide an enjoyable learning experience for people who want to customize a ROM the way they like it. We already have someone who has made a public ROM from this kitchen, and hopefully there will be more!

I am still looking for the downloadable shipped rom. hopefully it would be found soon. i looked on the htc site but i guess i am still lost. but thanks again for something great.

Sounds like fun. I'll try it out on myTouch 1.2

You can try this as well:
http://www.htc.com/www/support/magic.html

so with this one should be able to build roms from any rom to try make it work on your phone?

As long as they are Magic ROMs, then yes they should work.

ok so the base has to be magic for it to work, so in total it is to maske it easier to modify roms to your liking? no porting ect?

Yes you need a Magic ROM as your base. In theory it should work with any Magic ROM, but I'm not 100% familiar with all the variants of the HTC Magic so maybe there are incompatibilities?
I'll be working on porting ROMs later in the day.. I have to try the new porting scripts on my Hero first.

ok, i will give it a go when we can try porting a bit more fun working with android 2.1

i just noticed a problem with the T-Mobile myTouch 3G ROMs, as my script only looks for "HTC Magic" in the build.prop and not T-Mobile myTouch 3G... I'll get to fixing that soon. I'll check for "sapphire" instead, which is more generic.

Ok I have put up an update to the kitchen, version 0.24. This one should recognize all ROMs from all variants of the HTC Magic (e.g. T-Mobile myTouch 3G).
Also another option has been added, which will allow you to port a ROM from another Android device to your Magic (it will boot up but you may have to make some changes to get everything working properly, such as drivers). Has been tested on an HTC Hero.

[removddd- will update w/o pirated app

removed because of dev_meltus and chiefzreloaded
please lock thread and close - I will not be using CR works as he has pirated apps included

you may need to use apn backup and restore
or somehow other wise restore your apns
manually or whatever

is launcher 2 working on this? what about live wallpapers?
I really like it, will try it soon

Alan, appreciate what u'r doing but it would be nice to know some more details What radio is it?
I fear your hard work goes a little bit to waste when not providing enough info on the work you did.

This is for the old radio (3.22) as stated in the OP post title.
I think all CM kernels are for old radio.

flash 10.1 is working?

our phones will never support anything but flash from htc or whoever
you need a snapdragon processor for flash otherwise

new version up - camera fixed

quick question - i assume the camera preview image is also black&white as stated in the original thread?
just flashed it; jeb it is
also wifi doesn't seem to work for me

please forgive my Noobness, but I am just getting into rooting my phone, have successfuly flashed cyanogens 5.07 and upgraded my radio to 2.22.23.02. I have Kernal version 2.6.33.3-cyanogenmod, build # EPE54B, have Aman-Ra recovery v1.6.2 In order to root the first time I had to down grade and use sappimg, is that what Im going to have to do again or...Thanks in advanced and again please forgive my noobness, I wasnt sure what Info you would need so I just gave what I knew.

not sure why your here or what your doing - you have a 32b radio which should be for mt3g and g1 which is the g1/dream forums
our radio is 3.22 ebi1 radio - this rom is not compatible for u

Oh man, HTC really did a number on the Espresso Sense UI, everything is more pimped out.
It's quite fast and I hope for more updates.

hey buddy. great to have new rom for old radio. will be possible to BT make it work? specially here in ontario is more then necessary .
thanks

unfortunatly is unlikly to make BT work on Old Radio for sense roms
will port for NR when 2.1 is official
not woth it atm with sanpei kernel being the ONLY choice

[Q] Need a android ROM that works 100% with a video for the instructions

Hi,
I'm searching for a Android ROM but there are so many ROMs I can't choose. So...I want to ask if somebody knows a ROM that works 100% with a video to see the steps.
thx

Nothing ever works 100%.

hmm...okee but do you know a android ROM for htc hd2 with a video for instructions etc.

i wouldnt choose a rom only based on whether it has video instructions or not. i mean, there are some really quality roms that dont have video instructions

A little push in the right direction - (I hope )
What ROM you choose should be based on your needs/preferences.
I would suggest either LeoMar75 Rom Revolution v2.4 - Kitchen App or DarkyROM2
Also, check out this thread: [ROM + Guide]Official i9100 Firmwares KF1/2/3/4/, KG1/2/3/5/6/7 Download - a nice place to start.
Hope this helps you on the way

Not to offend, but if someone were to feel the need for instructional video... custom ROMs really aren't for them.
Custom ROMs are for more advanced users, and shouldn't be taken on lightly IMHO.

Try BlockBuster 4 ROM with Galaxian kernel, very very good way..
