Hey Guys,
I flashed my htc magic from rogers to new rom, and everything worked fine except not able to use 3G network, so I though it was radio image problem, then i flashed my radio,and that's where I started having issues. my cell does not even boot into system anymore (only stays at Rogers splash).
i struggled so much time to restore radio img(tried a few different ones), none of them worked.
when flashing radio img with fastboot, screen goes off, but with a little background light then nothing happens.
Here is my magic specs
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.33.2010
CPLD-12
RADIO-6.35.10.18
JUNE 2 2009, 17:27:03
Also, when i get into recovery mode, it reboots after 2-3 seconds, so i cant even use recovery mode.
Any help will be much appreciated!!!
now even worse, it keeps rebooting after i tried flashing again.
You need the 1.76.2007 SPL to match that radio and the Hero recovery or CursorDroids customized amon ra magic recovery.
eyegor is right, you need a matching SPL

when pressing key combination, it just continues to reboot.

GOT IT WORKING.
After Step 5) you download 1.2.4 and 1.2.6.1 - Put them on the root of your sdcard - Boot the phone by holding home+power - You then get into recovery (1.5.2) and there you choose flash zip.. Here you flash the 1.2.4 and after that you flash the 1.2.6.1.. Reboot phone and wait...
Hope this helps with any newbie.
The phone keeps rebooting. I followed every step. I tried 3x times already. What could be wrong?
I double check and make sure the phone is rooted. SU responds with #
I made sure the Engineering SPL shows up
I made sure the new Radio and SPL is there
pull battery, hold home+power - flash rom
As you've switched to the new Radio and SPL combo, you need to flash a ROM that is compatible with it. If it isn't it will reboot again and again...
I had a similar problem and can´t find a solution! The solution was to arrange for assistance!
I believe that only the JTAG cable can solve this!
LOL. What SPL and Radio are you running and what ROM are you trying to flash?
Hi everyone,
Sorry for sounding like a total noob, but today I was trying to flash my phone to "SUPER-HERO" rom. but first I needed to update the radio and hboot.
I went into recovery mode with "fastboot boot recovery.img".
Updated to radio image
6.35.08.29
And rebooted.... my phone showed up an HTC boot screen (probably was doing some updating) and then the problem started..
My phone is now booting through the vodafone logo then the HTC Magic logo (usb sound on my laptop for a second) and reboot.
No key combination is working except for the action button which shows up a blue LED.
Anyone can help?
My phone is an HTC Magic 32A (Vodafone Branded).
Thanks.

You must to revert to old radio, when you update to new radio you need to install a rom/kernel port that works with new radio.

I can't reach fastboot I don't know why.. fastboot usually gets launched as soon as I press back + power.. I just get the vodafone logo then the HTC logo right after that.. and then it restarts.
If you flashed an incorrect radio or recovery (flashing the wrong radio is a surefire way to get bricked), and as a result are not able to get to fastboot or recovery, then you're bricked and as a result need a new phone.
I managed to get the phone to fastboot but when I load the recovery ROM the phone just resets.
What can I do in fastboot?

You can flash a new (Correct) radio and/or recovery rom, or even a new SPL. Course reason instructions carefully for whatever you grab.

Hi all,
I have a strange issue and i am not sure if this hs been discussed before (Looked everywhee and i cannot seem to find an answer).
The Problem: I have a Desire S and i am in Australia (Carrier: Telstra), It was working fine without any issues and i had installed Generic European Firmware in the phone, Since this morning, when the battery died the phone has been on a white screen that says hTc and nothing happenns.
I went to HBOOT and tried recovery and everything that i could, downloaded customs rom tries installing through PC and through memory card but nothing happens.
This is what my phone shows when i go into HBOOT

Options that i can play around are:
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY- goes back to hTc Logo and later on come up with green recycle sign and immediately after that phone icon with exlamation mark.
FACTORY RESET- goes back to hTc Logo and shows a green installation sign on the phone icon just below that progess bar with memory card at the end and goes back to hTc logo in white and stays like that.I have a Telstra's ROM (telstra.zip) in the SD Card
SYSTEM INFO
IMAGE CRC
any ideas on how can i install something on it, or do i need to send it back to HTC.
Please help!
You can install custom ROM only via Recovery. You need custom recovery for that.
The red exclamation mark confirms that you have stock recovery (press Vol UP + Power and you will enter), but it is short of options (reboot, install update.zip and wipe cache) You can try to install telstra.zip with the second option but then you will have troubles with your hboot version - 6.98. There will be a conflict with the one in the telstra.zip so you will have the white screen and logo again.
So you have 2 options:
1) flash custom Recovery via fastboot command /or Android flasher - it is easier/ and then custom ROM
2) flash eng 0.98.2000 hboot via fastboot command /or Android flasher/, then use a RUU to restore to complete stock
Hey guys i need help with my evo 3D i have been struggling to make it turn on. So half year ago I unlock the bootloader and rooted it. But the problem was that i could not make S-Off and i accidently wiped it and i installed a custom rom and it worked for 4 days but afterwards it started to reboot itself but it never passed the rom boot so then i installed the stock recovery and once it turned on it only let me select the language and then it turn off this was the last time i could make it turn on. Now it only goes into bootloader but it does not go into recovery, everytime i try to go into recovery th htc logo appears and it turns off, i tried to flash the recovery through fastboot, it does send it and write it on the phone but it never go into recovery. I also tried to install PG86IMG.zip ( with relocked and unlcked bootloader ) but it never ask me to update or not it only recognizes it. By the way i used Twrp modified recovery to install the custom roms, i have tried flash cwm recovery, recovery signed, twrp modified but it has not work. :crying::crying::crying: Thank you for reading this i would really appriciate your help guys .
