Hi,
I want to change the first screen when I turn on my htc magic(HBOOT-1.33.0008, PVT 32A).
But when I using this command on my PC (Phone have entered fastboot mode):
---------------------------------------
fastboot flash splash1 mysplash.rgb565
---------------------------------------
I got a error, it say:
------------------------
sending 'splash1' (300 KB)... OKAY
writing 'splash1'... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
------------------------
I don't want to flash a modded SPL, so, is there a way to flash the splash1 partition by Recovery mode?
Thanks in advance!
You need an engeneering SPL or HBOOT to do this.

I have the same problem
I thought I had the eng SPL uploaded but stll the same error message. Could it be that im following the G1 method and its different to the G2/magic/sapphire?
HBOOT-1.33.0008 is not a modded or an engenieering SPL.

#3 is not me
I know the HBOOT-1.33.0008 is a original SPL. I'd like to know if I can flash the splash1 partition by Recovery mode.
I think you can't apply any update.zip (like roms, recoveries...) unless you change your SPL but I'm not sure.

No, you can apply updates and flash recoveries without flashing SPL. You need the updated SPL to flash a nandroid backup, or presumably, the splash1 screen.

You can use the pimped out recovery image to flash a nandroid backup, and just start the pimped out recovery image via fastboot. No flashing of SPL or recovery needed for restoring nandroid.

1.First download Rom manager from market
2. Rom manager flashes ClockworkMod Recovery
3. Now download that rom and save to sd card
4. Now reboot into recovery from ROM manager
5. Inside recovery navigate to backup and restore. now make backup of your current ROM(Very important) or you can directly make backup from ROM manager
6) When you finish backing up,
7) format data/factory reset
8) From advanced, format data,system,cache
9) Also format cache partition
10) Finally, goto install from zip from SD card
11) Navigate your download rom and confirm by pressing YES
12) Wail till CWM flashes
13) Reboot and wait.........................done....
And never flash radio or hboot if it is not necessary.

@sagarda : You forgot a very important thing... He unlocked his phone using HTC dev site. That means the boot is still locked. So the kernel is still preserved from the old ROM, which is incompatible with the ROM he's flashed now, and this is never going to allow the phone to boot up with this new ROM.
So he has to flash boot.img separately from fastboot. I know you were only trying to help, but it's best to only give advice that you have actually tried yourself, otherwise you may end up bricking someone's phone trying to help him.
As for @igorICS, you need to extract boot.img from the ROM zip, and flash it separately using fastboot if you want to boot up this new ROM. And please learn to do some reading before taking the plunge, rather than later...
i pulled battery again and i enered recovery somehow, and recived message,
''can't mount ...''
and i just restored my backup
and i dont wanna **** around with this thing...

Just add a \ between Desktop and boot.img!
I try not to use desktop for cmd purposes...
Just to be 100% sure, follow the steps below:
1. Make a new folder in C:\ called boot
2. Now place the boot.img in the folder you created (C:\boot)
3. Now, using fastboot, type the following at the command prompt (for you, i see that it is C:\Android) ----- fastboot flash boot C:\boot\boot.img
4. Once you get a confirmation of a successful flash, type adb reboot
5. That's it. Enjoy your new ROM !
HBOOT 2.16 Installation guide
Requirements before installing
Back up your files, your SD Card will be WIPED!
Charge your phone to AT LEAST 30%
Your bootloader MUST be unlocked
You NEED to be S-OFF or else it won't work
You need basic knowledge of Fastboot commands
Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP: You need drivers installed
Windows 8.1: You need drivers installed AND update kb2967917 from Microsoft
Linux: You need "51-android.rules" or "99-android.rules" configured
Mac: Nothing needed that I know of
I am NOT responsible if you break your phone
This guide will be from a Windows point of view
Installation Guide
Download the HBOOT 2.16 firmware file from here: Download from Mega.co.nz
Place it in your adb and fastboot folder. For example C:\Users\(Your Username)\Fastboot
Now open a Command Prompt window and then type in:
Code:
cd C:\(Location of your Fastboot folder)
Now take your phone and connect it to your computer (with USB Debugging ON) and type in:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Once you are in the bootloader and it displays "Fastboot USB", type in:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Once your computer recognizes your phone type in:
Code:
fastboot flash zip Firmware_4.06.401.1.zip
If you changed the file name make sure to type in the name of it instead of the one above
You will then get an error:
Code:
"FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)"
Don't worry, this is normal. DO NOT unplug your phone. Simply type in once again:
Code:
fastboot flash zip Firmware_4.06.401.1.zip
If you changed the file name make sure to type in the name of it instead of the one above
Then wait until the Command window says "finished" and type in:
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Next we need to download TWRP recovery. You can download it from MDMower's website and MAKE SURE to get TWRP for "/data/media storage (HBOOT 2.16.0000)" and TWRP 2.8.0.1 or above.
Now we must go back to the command window with your phone still plugged in displaying "Fastboot USB" on the screen
Then we type:
Code:
cd C:\Users\(Your Username)\Downloads
or if the TWRP Recovery file isn't in the above location just direct it to the folder its stored in
Now we type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.x.x-ville-dm.img
just replace the "x" with the numbers on the file. e.g. - 2.8.0.1
Once it flashed successfully press the power button and use the volume buttons to scroll down to recovery and to boot into it, simply press the power button
Now go into "Mounts" and select Enable MTP if it isn't already.
Now copy a ROM of your choice (That supports HBOOT 2.16) and flash it. If MTP doesn't work, simply sideload the ROM
That's it, now you just reboot after installing your ROM.
Hope this helps anybody having difficulty with HBOOT 2.16
Getting a different error when flashing.

You need to change your cid
To change it go into bootloader, then fastboot, connect it to your computer and type
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
that is eight 1s
If that didnt work then type instead
Code:
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
that is 2 underscores after HTC
I get this:

No matter how often I attempt it. Redownloaded the zip to make sure it is not corrupt...
Any pointer?
Ah, damn, because I followed the instructions to the end despite the HBOOT not flashing I can also now not access recovery anymore. It seems the new version of recovery was properly flashed, but as it relies on higher HBOOT I can't get into it anymore. It is still in HBOOT 1.03.
Can anyone help me to get this phone ready for Cyanogenmod?
I was able to load the hboot, but now the bootloader is locked again and I can't flash the recovery.

You need the hboot 2.16 specific recovery, you can download it here
Never mind, I found what I needed...
Hi, do you have the firmware for t-mobile to downgrade to 2.15? I tried https://mega.co.nz/#!s54F3YqK!QrNjMlieIG65jsaGWS8eXDdLc5FcYM7IEmqTk_pHbFA but doesnt work. I think because is not for tmobile. I cant downloade the full RUU because the download always fails and my internet is so slow.
EDIT: I dont need it anymore, a friend download the file for me. Just a question. in hboot 2.16, gave me more space for my data, i like that, there is no way to make old roms to work on hboot 2.16?
Cannot get this method to work. I'm unlocked and S-OFF. But whenever I try to flash the firmware*.zip I get the message
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
I'm about ready to give up on HBoot 2.16.

No the recovery version will NEVER affect anything that does/doesn't work on the rom. Since you are using Liberty rom, make sure you are using the 4.4.2 version because the 4.4.3 version is very buggy
of course
