i have a mytouch 3g , htc magic, for tmobile. its a 32b . im just wondering a couple of things. im going to flash to a hero rom today . some webpages tell me that i dont need to flash any spl before i flash the rom. others say to flash the hard spl 1st then the rom. others say to flash the engineer spl .
which spl do i need, if any ? and will this mess up my phone if i decide to go back to the original firmware ?
This should be asked in questions and answers.
(I say this to help you. You don't want to be kicked out.)
That aside...
On the rooted mytouch 3G 32B your factory or "shipping" SPL does not need to be changed to flash a hero ROM.
Happy flashing.
i apologize. ill post in the other section if i need help next time.
and thanks alot. i was so confused about the whole spl situation.
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...

look at the apps that come with the docomo rom. do you see mms.apk? do you see DocomoSms.apk? Hmm... Maybe there is a reason it doesn't do mms
i am not talking about mms alone i am talking about downgrading i am talking about loading custom roms
needs help regarding that and yes i installed the pic say mms software

Not sure if my idea works, but you might want to download the sappimg.nbh.
Put this file in the root of your SD, start fastboot (holding end & power). After fastboot loaded, press volume down. This will put the magic back to an original 1.5 rom. After that you can try and root it again, and try any rom you want.
thank you brother but its not working due to perfected spl
try the one click root after you downgrade it
you can find the apk here

Yes, you're right. Docomo do not provide MMS Service, since they have i-mode.

Lol no you wont! ROMs dont brick phones!
You can flash a 32A rom but it will not boot, simple as that.
it might boot you know...
i recently had to send back a bricked magic, on warranty. and the magic they sent back had a perfected spl.
the sappimg.nbh i used on my goldcard was from a 1.5 32a rom. the tutorial i used said do not let the phone boot.. and then flash it with a 32b radio spl etc...
but it booted... un-intentionally, but it did boot!
and now my 32b is left with a 32a splash screen.
so i wonder what other roms will work??? im 2 scared of bricking another device tho!

do you8 have a 32a magic or 32b magic on the spl?
the reason 32a wont boot on b is because if the partition for data or system is too small on what your using it wont even fit it all

It did boot because that sappimg.nbh flashed a 32A radio to your 32B device which allowed a 32A rom to boot
32A Roms on 32B phone
If you look into the past search for evil D ROMS I remember that I converted my phone into a 32a and was able to load 32A ROMS I still have the files around to convert it over and revert, but as to what I noticed is that they don't run all that good because our phones have less memory and RAM in them to perform like that...It's weird now that their is so many 32A ROMS and in the past their were more 32B Roms...Sadness..
