How many Dev HTC Magics are there in the wild?

Myself and jbelman seem to have the Dev (rooted) firmware based phones that look like they shouldn't escaped Vodafone and been purchased by the public.
I'm curious as to how many of you have the Dev firmware Build number CRA71C like jbelman and myself and how many have the "standard" version Build number CRB17? The more dev phones we find, the better chance we have in doing the customisation that the majority of HTC owners enjoy (lots of clever people on XDA-Developers...).
In case you are wondering how to do this, here it is:
Press the Menu button
Settings
Scroll down to the bottom "About Phone"
Look at the bottom of the screen starting with Model Number and post the info please.
Cheers
Dave

do expect more exploitation on the MAGIC~!

I'm just a CRB17..
And i need to change my fonts. so I need root!

I think he knows that.... read the post

I didn't before I saw the link so no worries. Exciting isn't it! Roll on proper HTC ROMs! I had looked on the thread earlier but they were still struggling uploading the img. Confused me for a while as it's in the G1 room so never thought of checking. Glad I did now. It feels like your older brother/sister telling you the ways of the world!

Hi all... i have the CRA71C one...

(Info)Everything About firmware's

Are you sick of searching through a 200 page thread over one topic just to find the download link to the newest thread?
Well over at allshadow.com I have compiled all of the information of the Firmwares and update everyone on the newest builds
Sure there's a sticky of a chart but how could a chart help you find the newest updates?

links down man.

That fast? Re updating

You got one too many "http"s in there, turbo.

nice work. I like how everything is there for newbies to go by without posting multiple topics.
This would be a nice sticky or a reference site to point all questions about firmware to.

I fixed, i sorta found that out.

Do you want me to port this thread over? It wont take that long?

You don't mention the holiday firmware for both us and eu

What do you mean? This is the most recent firmware's
I will add those in a sec

I'm currently running the following
signed-dream_gfh_eu-ota-147201.ea8cd686.zip
updated with
signed-gfh_eu-CRB43-from-CRB21.62e94a26.zip
(update is signed-gfh-CRB43-from-CRB21.c88b03d2.zip for us)
I don't know the name of the eu CRB43 file without upgrading though if there is one :-(
Basically this is the nearest I can get to a non t-mobile adp like firmware for europe, unless you know of another ;-)

Please don't let this thread go to waste.

I agree completely. A thread called 'Everything about Firmwares' with incomplete information would be a waste ;-)

Well I was only giving information on the newest builds, sorta waste of your time if you flash RC30, who in the world would do that? I will update to make everyone happier.

Who would want to flash RC30 when a) I'm in europe and b) RCB43 gfh is out?

[None]
This thread has Great Info for new Android Users, let's try to keep it alive don't just trash it with off topic posts. Great Job Matt

I'm not trashing the thread, just trying to make sure the information is complete as it would be great to have it all in one place

Anything else you want me to add> I just added all the older builds and added some new sections on User Created Firmware Changes. Thanks for the Props

[ROM] Official HTC FROYO Android 2.2 FILE for Manual Update via HTC SYNC (OTA file)

UPDATED Aug 19, 2010: New Link, for Mirror to ROM. Original was pulled.
Get it here: http://bit.ly/cIXo91
This thread has been updated with great HOW TO VIDEO by XDA member darren rich who demystified a bunch of elements -- making this user-friendly for people with both UNBRANDED HTC Desire phones (GSM) -- and Branded phones -- which can be converted into unbranded phones first, by using the Goldcard process -- which he discusses.
Click to expand...

This thread shows you how to update your HTC Desire GSM phone to Android version 2.2, Froyo, MANUALLY, using a WindowsPC computer, running the application "HTC Sync", connecting to your phone via USB cable. It's for usage if you have not been able to update Over The Air (OTA) -- and will provide you the exact same end result.
This is official HTC Software. This is for UNROOTED phones, phones that have only had official software that was originally installed, or OTA official updates. In other words:
teppic74 said:
You do not need to root your phone to run an RUU. These are official HTC updates that are designed for recovery or for people who cannot upgrade OTA.

RUU means "Rom Upgrade Utility" -- For unbranded phones, this process is straight forward. However if you have a branded phone, you have to add another step, and it's very important. It's also explained within...
teppic74 said:
Since this RUU is restricted to unbranded phones, you need a "goldcard" to bypass the check if you have a branded phone.

The thread combines (A) information from a previous thread posted by "football" [ROM] RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8 whichincluded the key download link to the primary Froyo file, which was posted by the good people at Shipped-Roms.com, with (B) much clarifying information from Darren and other posters from that thread.
Quick Overview
1. Download 3 files you'll need -- to a Windows machine.
a) "HTC Sync" software that runs on WindowsPCs only. It is the program that puts the initial software on your phone via USB cable.
Get it here: http://www.htc.com/europe/supportDownload.aspx?p_id=312&cat=3&dl_id=933
b) The main ROM -- a .exe file -- located here: (REVISED LINK as of Aug 19, 2010)
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe
See that same file in full context here: (Note: Unfortunately, this page, perhaps that whole site, was pulled, Account suspended)
c) The update to the main ROM -- a zip file -- which will be copied to your phone thru USB cable, not executed thru "HTC Sync". It is located here, from HTC's site:
http://liveimage.htc.com/OTA_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8-1.21.405.2_release4dua3bcrut4wrv30.zip
2. Read Darren's Blog Post, it has good instructions.
3. Watch his Video. It's easy. You'll feel ready to go.
More Details - About That ROM:
NOTE: "HTC BRAVO" = "HTC DESIRE" . Bravo was the original codename used by HTC before the Desire was actually released. You can confirm that by looking at the "DEVICE DATABASE" that is linked to from the top of every page on XDA-developers, under the XDA logo. All versions of the HTC Bravo/ Desire.

what about Hboot?

I apologize; I do not know the answer to this. I posted this information prior to performing this installation on my own DESIRE. I will be doing that tomorrow (Sat Aug 14). The reason I posted it is that the thread it is based upon took 22 posts before it was explained WHAT it was, what it dis, how to do it. I thought it could be useful to re-package the information.
I also posted a disclaimer... But after I perform this update tomorrow, I will come back and reply here and tell you what I have found. I am assuming (but i do not know one way or another) that this will be information listed on the same screen that shows firmware version # ?

Hi, could you explain, if you know, how the two differ, and who should use which? thank you

they don't differ it's your, just made a mirror in case your link dies?

Anybody having issues on the original stock sense unrooted 2.2 ROM? In every Sense 2.2. custom rom I tried I couldn't add more than one gmail account. I then tried unrooting and did the OTA update to 2.2. Same thing, still can't add more than 1 gmail acccount.
So I downgraded and rooted again and tried OpenDesire and could add more gmail accounts without problems. Then I tried a Sense 2.2 custom ROM and again, I coudn't add more than 1 gmail account.
So now I'm thinking to do the unroot with the RUU exe and see if it helps?
