With my Magic 32B working very good

sounds great but how can i install this?
and which android version will i have?

is your phone rooted? if not, you will need to do so and apply the recovery that fabioccelho gave you in the first link, with that you can flash it that way.
all hero roms that are ready for everyday use are 1.5
there are some eclair hero's in the dream forum, but they are not quite there yet.

so i was on ebay looking for an HTC Magic. I found one that had the Hero ROM that was already installed. I emailed the guy and he said that the phone had no compatibility issues and it was working completely fine - the bluetooth, multi touch, the wi fi, camera etc, were all working correctly. I asked him how and he replied that it wasn't a "cooked" ROM. I'm new to this, so can someone explain? I thought all the roms for the HTC Magic Hero ROM all had their own issues and none of them were working 100% correctly. thanks in advance!

Official HTC 1.5 Sense-UI Port for 32B?

Is there a nice Dev that has ported this over for us 32B handset users?
I am new to the whole rom flashing thing, and have been hesitant to root and flash my phone with the existing sense roms because I don't want to lose functionality and/or make my phone any more lagtastic than it already is.
The official HTC 1.5 Sense rom seems to be right up my alley.. And with a Dev porting it (perhaps with some of their slick optimization settings) that should make for one awesome rom to flash.
If anyone has some info, that would be awesome.
Thanks!
I second this. Show some love to your 32B counterparts.
this was asked yesterday
and it's been said countless times but the Dream forum is the place to go for 32B ROMs. You'll find that 32B gets more love than 32A does, actually

That's wrong, unfortunately. SenseUI needs more RAM than your phone has and will always make 32B devices lag. The G1 Devs have managed to get it to a usable state using Swap and tweaks but from what I know it's still that... laggy.

What is the best hero rom for 32A old radio?

which hero rom is the fastest and has the most features working on 32A old radio?
plz post link or download link
CursorSense I believe but take note it only works for the new radio.
Seeing that you're new here, please read the sticky threads first. They will answer frequent & common qns.
Welcome to XDA!
LOL thanks
is new radio much better then the old because the process seems very confusing
and im not sure if i should change it
and also is the BeHero V1.2.1 Rom good?
i think it was just recently released but im not sure if its trustable
Search for "Case_" . He did an awesome HERO Rom for the old Radio. I used it for a long time before swithing over to Cursordroids. IMHO the best for 32A
does this rom have everything working?
and is myhero 2.0.5 closest to a perfect hero rom or is there on better?

cursorsense would be best to use, you should do the radio/spl upgrade, i used myhero before but switching was really worth it, runs much better now than with myhero...
just follow cursordroids radio upgrade, he has a thread with it, works easy
lol ok kool
which cursor droid rom should i use and is there a link for it
thanks

Can I upgrade the new myTouch v1.2 with HTC Sense?

I am a huge fan of the HTC Sense UI for the Hero and I would like to have it on the myTouch. I'm looking forward to buying one soon, but I don't want to risk rooting a brand new phone. So i was wondering if the Rogers upgrade for their HTC Magic+ can be used to add Sense UI to the new myTouch.
Yes, if you make it.
make what?

Not currently. The new MyTouch doesn't really have a wide selection of ROMS at the moment. (read none...)
Once you get root, you can install the stock Fender ROM with root access or a port of an eclair ROM (st0kes_eclair.) I personally haven't used the eclair ROM as I have heard it currently has some issues.
Best bet at this point is just to wait for HTC to release the kernel so more developers can start making us some custom ROMs.

thanks vantix. but im not really looking for a custom ROM. i just want to know if the HTC Magic+ update will work on for the myTouch 1.2. You can find that update here: htc.com/ca/support/magic-rogers/downloads/
I'm sorry but it won't. Your hardware is very close, but not exactly the same as the Magic (your touchscreen differs, and you ave the 3,5 mm jack). Don't flash this, as most probably it will break your phone.
aww sad day. thanks movikun
Oooh man you don't wanna flash that htc magic+ from rogers. Trust me hahaaha. The people on rogers (such as myself) were forced to flash that (thank god I didnt) and yeah it could possibly braek your phone as well.
You currently can't even flash a custom rom over to MyTouch LE because of the drivers issues. You won't have touchscreen, etc. This is being worked on... sorta.
Since the Fender/LE is Google then you will not see HTC SenseUI on it.
To get SenseUI on your MyTouch v1.2 you will have to do some work.
Get the source from HTC and use the LE Kernel (with drivers)
Port it to a SenseUI rom OR SenseUI source.
Probably won't be worth the trouble.

A quick question for 2.1 roms

I've been searching and trying many different roms for the MT3g that are android 2.1, and there are many many talented developers on this website it's too hard to just try them all.
Can anyone point out there most "stable" and working rom for 2.1 32B they have use / are using
It's been annoying having to change and reflash different roms every other week for something new / need something else to work that I wonder if anyone has their preferred roms they could point out
Thanks in advance
