http://android.modaco.com/content/h...-for-sapphire-magic-tested-on-vodafone-magic/
This is a very straightforward port of Cyanogen's awesome 3.9.6 ROM to run on the HTC Sapphire / Magic (tested on the Vodafone Magic).

cant u read?????????????????? VODAFONE = 32B

Paul,
What did you change to get Compcache working? I'm already running 3.9.5 on my 32B and don't really want to reflash just for the sake of being able to push a couple of modified files
Cheers

So this is with cyno 3.9.5 kernel right?

i think i can read better than you

What's the difference between this port and the jerpelea (or something) port?

isnt this the same as jerpleas port?

Same as Jerpelas and all the other 'ports' that use the trick I found of renaming init.trout.rc in boot.img to init.sapphire.rc.
I've asked a couple of the devs to include this file by default to avoid the plethora of threads here that are just dream roms which pretty much anyone can get running in a couple of minutes.
At the moment the 'real' development work is mainly in the dream forum, lucky for 32b owners they run perfectly 32A, wait for the ports
Waiting for the Drizzy/JAC new hero port tonight - it's meant to be damn fast,and they think they can get it to 'cupcake' speeds

re: posts above...
Correct, it's using Cyanogen's kernel (hence compcache functions correctly).
Correct, it's for 32B.
Correct, it's using a tweaked boot.img with a renamed RC.
I think it's a valid post because not everyone has the ability / time / inclination to download the ROM, extract the boot.img, rename the file, rebuild the boot.img and then resign the resulting zip.
As always, I created this for my own use and thought i'd share!
I also have asked Cyanogen (via Twitter) to include a sapphire.rc in future revisions. Here's hoping!

I think that with this ROM, libwebcore.so from CM3.6.8.1 and the Noverca Audio*.csv files, I can actually use my Magic for what it's supposed to be used for!
Until tomorrow at least

Splendid! Thanks so much. Do you plan on continuing support of Cyan roms?

Thanks Modaco,
all the apps and the cache, to ext3 partition. Good rom. Wifi runs ok , it goes so fast. For me, the most important advantage, the apps and the cache, to sd!.
Thanks guy

compcache is working, wifi wont start.
I'm pretty sure that jerpelea had to get a different wlan.ko for it to work on his.

This just keeps looping on the Android splash screen. Is it because I am using Amon_Ra's 1.2 recovery???

I am using 1.2 and had no troubles.
Just WiFi wont start.
I have tried replacing it with the wlan.ko from jerpelea's rom.
It doesnt like it.

I dont get it! I had similar problems with newer Cyanogen build than what I am on. Also the QTek rom does the same.
It seems to me that any ported ROMs which all you supposedly need to do is run 'update.zip' fail with a boot loop for me.
I don't know why it's only with ported ROMs though..... It's driving me mad!!!

[MOD] No More Need for [PORT][32B] with Hero ROMs

Yes, you read that title correctly. We are wasting time, energy, and file size making these ports when all the builds could be "co-ed"
I have already done this in my builds, but not everyone wants to use mine (I know, I was sad, too) so I will look into if the script being used can be rewritten to use my new standard. Until such time, Here is an update add-on that will convert all the newest Hero ROMs into co-ed versions. This is also dependednt on the concept that all current ROMs are using JACs kernel.
Deported Version 1.0

Copy to root of SD and flash like any other update. Kudos.

just download
have just downloaded, will def. give it a try....
I am sorry, but pls don't shout at me for being dumb.... but should i flash this first then flash the Hero rom... tks.

So I have a 32a magic. So I can load any 32b rom out there and then apply your patch?? as long as its using the jac kernel?? Just wanting to make sure before I try it out. It just seems all to easy. haha

NO people!
When Twist said its CO-ED it means that it can be used on a G1 and a MyTouch
NOT co-ed as in 32A and 32B
Im almost 100% sure this is ONLY for a 32B

This would be correct. Co-ed meaning both t-mobile branded devices. 32A requires a different kernel, but im sure those users knew that. So one boot image could not be "dual kernel" and i dont have the time to make that many changes to the existing one to make it go either way

Okay so basically, i install the hero rom first and then this mod? because i just tried this with micro hero v1.4 and it got stuck at the vodafone screen(used logcat and there was error), but then when i installed micro hero on its own it boots.????

great work on this Twisted. You're a genius.

what is the difference of to have or not to have this MOD?
I dón´t taste any difference.

Do I flash this before flashing a ROM? Also, I'm guessing I still have to wipe before flashing the ROM, correct?

HTC Drivers "when"

As far as I know, Android is one open source platform.
Now, doesn't that mean that HTC must share it's drivers for different phones?

The Android platform is open source, but the drivers for the HTC hardware are not open source. HTC (Qualcomm as well) has no obligation to release the drivers. We have to wait until they are included in a 2.1 HTC built ROM for the specific device.

Don't understed the reason from HTC. They have nothing to loose if they release drivers for their devices. That will push their sales a lot. But HTC is slow and weird when it comes to software updates and stuff.

does it matter if they give them up?? head over to dream development xda developer NCommander has made a camera driver and released the source.. and eugene373 has already updated his eclair rom!!!

Now we just need to wait for a port from Eugenes rom to our 32A devices..

downloading now to run on my 32a
is there a thread on that 32a port? i have no intentions of doing anything beyond wiping, flashingx2 and re-booting (no formatting or swap partitions etc) - keen to read some other experiences so i can get it working...

Awesome! I'm with march83 though - is there a thread on this? I'd like some more info before I flash anything to my phone ..
Thanks for sharing

ok, wipe, flash, flash, boot didn't work on my 32a with no partitions. don't have the time or resources to back up my sd card and test it with proper partitions til tonight.
also, i can't find md5s for the downloads anywhere so i can't confirm that i've got valid files. no matter - no harm done, nandroid and my Gyd is back up and running.
can someone who's successfully got this working on a 32a post some details?
cheers

Installed it and it's working I have ext3/linux-swap, get that and you'll be fine ! I never ever flashed any SPL or radio so don't bother.

BTW, that rom is Eclair, not Expresso。
I can't live without HTC's Dialer with smart dial, so I'll have to wait for a stable Expresso port.

[ROM][32A RADIO 6.35] SuperD 1.8 - 02/02/2010

All credit goes to other devs... I'm just combining other peoples works to make your lives easier (i.e. i'm making a VERY basic port and sharing it with everyone who doesn't know how )
I would like to thank sanpei and cursordroid for their work on the new radio.
Any help/suggestions would be appreciated, I'm new to this but i will do my best to fix any problems you guys may have.
Prerequisites:
radio 6.35 (duh) w/ engineering spl 1.76.2007 --> instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605239
Download your choice of SuperD 1.8 here
Original Link <-- he gets all the credit
GPS fixed
Camera still broken
MT Broken
Will fix by next release
SuperD 1.8 Port

oh--really THX 4 UR sharin. i have tested the port.
AND i suggust that you consider to the Expresso 2.1 port .
actually there are not choice as many as G1&G3 with SPL2007.

Is needed use the port for users with radio 6.35?
Thanksl

Yes. That is what the port is for. SuperD originally requires the old radio.

Not yet . I'm currently testing the other ROM he ported. WG-Build Y-2.6. It's running fine so far.

Seems to work well. Flashed no problem, phone works, wifi works. Well done.

Thanks a whole bunch for this port! I installed The official Rogers 1.5 ROM to get my 3G connection back and I tried cursorsense (which is a fine ROM but I just hate the Sense UI... I don't know it just feels gimmicky! and let's be honest 1.5 looks kind of dated) So I'm glad there's a port for the 6.35 radio, that way I don't have to revert back to the older radio.
will be flashing it soon! Thanks again!

What makes this port different from a 32A port like ahmgsk's ones? I know they are for different radios. What is different in the code?

it's kind of like the difference between 32b and 32a roms, different kernel, different wlan, different boot.img.

R there any problems with this rom??

After installing latest radio, spl and cursorsense 1.2.1, decided to try this one. Installed superD radio, ROM, and was stuck on reboot with the logo screen.

i've installed the rom and everything is working except gps (activates in the power bar but doesn't work)
very fast rom
thanks for the port

GPS not working: just tested on my magic.

Yup, GPS not working, otherwise it seems very stable. I noticed that SuperD1.7 was released today. Do you (Phil_McRevis) need to make an updated port or is it safe to flash 1.7 and your port straight after? I really need a stable Donut for version 6 radios...

Released! [32A Port] KiNgxKxlicK AOSP 2.1 [v1.4] using King's #2 kernel [2/3/2010]

Due to popular demand I'VE BUILT a 32A port for King's AOSP 2.1-1.4. I'm using King's kernel config for maximum compatibility, tweaked for our 32A boards.

Thank you for another 32A port! We need more ppl with this initiative!
But I must ask: any plans to port it to 6.35 radio?

No immediate plans, but (and I'm happy to be corrected) radio compatibility is a ROM issue rather than a kernel issue. I'd expect it'd require a matching RIL from a device that uses the new radio, like a hero or something?

Thank you very much for porting KiNgxKxlicK AOSP 2.1 [v1.4] for HTC Magic (32B). I'm using this ROM in my G1 and is incredible fast and stable
Just one question, is necessary any special SPL for 32A?
Keep up the good job

I'm not sure either, but I think it's like any other port: boot+kernel+libs, etc. At least I just installed [ROM][32A RADIO 6.35] SuperD 1.6 - 24/01/2010 and all I did was flash the default ROM from 32B boards [48Mb] + Phil_McRevis Port file [2Mb] and all is working well

I need the new radio 32A port

can't sign into my google account..
this is a major problem and I have no idea what could be causing it
every time it just says "you don't have a network connection"
even though I do..
though on the plus side, facebook sync seems to be working but I can't tell as I don't currently have any contacts to sync(no google account)
wifi, 3g, gps and bluetooth are working of course
though the phone isn't recognizing any of the buttons on my headset
not sure if that's an issue with the rom or not
live wallpapers don't seem to be working for me
some of them move, some don't
but none of them respond to touch
the addition of the weather/news widget and the "clock" app is nice
why are we not seeing the new launcher yet though?
also, any word on getting the browser, gallery and maps from the update for the N1 today?
it would be really nice if someone could post those somewhere..

correction
signing into google in the settings didn't work
sigining into google from gmail didn't work
signing into google from the market did work!
hooray!
but now I see that facebook sync really isn't working..

we love you apacheo
will dl rom when i get home from gym and try it out... ill let you know of issues. Does anyone know when to expect 3D accelerators for 32A ? wouldnt mind having video recorder back.

It would if King changed his rom to include the new RIL etc.
Radio compatibility isn't determined by the kernel - it's determined by other things, so my port doesn't affect it - its up to the rom cook to determine that.

Usually it takes about 2-3 minutes. Is the boot animation freezing for a second or two? If so, you need to reinstall it.
Make sure you have the SPL and Radio from my signature. You can also find there the port I've made (with Magic Port ) for King 1.4 and it works very well for me!

this rom works great! the only thing i can complain about is that there is no full exchange support. would be great if i could access my exchange calendar. possible for a motoapps add on like what amgsk did previously?

Do a quick google for MotoCAL.apk - that'll give you exchange calendaring. As for including it in the rom, let Kingklick92 know (use his twitter - twitter.com/kingklick92) and he might include it in the next release.
