Hello
Is the new SPL cracked yet?
Since there is people like me stuck on unroot since i flashed the offical rom.
I really like the offical rom better then cynag..mod but i want to try some other roms.
Thanks
what official ROM are u talking about?? what SPL
spl version is 1.76.0010
There is no need to request anything. If a root method comes out, it will be posted on the forum and on the internet ASAP. It's not like only certain people get the root method because they ask for it.
Have patience.

ok seems theres an official update from HTC for our rogers phones anyone try it yet http://www.htc.com/ca/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=270&act=sd&cat=2
Ooooh, eeenteresting....
Code:
Why is updating the software on your device recommended?
The ROM software update posted below provides several key enhancements for your HTC Dream:
-Improves the overall device functionality and stability
-Enables correct SMS timestamp [B]<<<<<<<<<<!!!!![/B]
-Enables Chinese character display for POP3 HTML Emails
-Corrects E-mail client exchange Issues
yes can it be timestamp fix heaven? lol.. just wondering if this is going to work for rooted or non 32a magic.. or both
The update pages says "HTC Magic (Rogers)" but when I stick in my S/N it says: Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device. Bummer since my phone and box say HTC Rogers on them.

ditto :/
i just got the S/N from the box as I didnt want to remove the battery.
yeah i noticed it also.. comes up when you select Rogers Magic.. but if you noticed in the notes.. some of which also posted above.. it says enhance dream isssues... will try my s/n and let you know
you can get the files from the rogers support page.. i used this link to get there http://www.androidincanada.ca/news/update-rogers-htc-dreammagic-android-timestamp-problem/
I have the direct link here:
http://downloads.rogers.com/wireless/products/htc/magic/RUU_Sapphire_Rogers_WWE_2.17.631.2_release_signed_NoDriver.exe
Be careful as this update will more than likely install a Perfect SPL on your device. You will need to re-root your device after installing this. Could be a painful process.
I'm going to wait for somebody who knows what they're doing to remove the important bits from this update.
Cheers!
my thoughts exactly.. the way they have been putting the perfect spl on devices that didnt have it.... I tried it ( im running Jacheroski 2.7.4r2) and it didnt even recognize my phone. I was reading on the HTC site that you need HTC sync software first... thought that was for hero.. anyways.. have to run out for a bit will check back later... on a side note.. if this actually unroots your phone and puts the rogers apps back on .. couldnt someone tweak this up date and make it a restore rom?
I can confirm that it installs a 'Perfected SPL'.
Version 1.33.0010 to be exact.
Proceed with caution! I read through some posts on how to root these devices with 1.33.0010 and I really wouldn't want to have to do that.
I haven't installed the ROM image, and I won't.
After running the RUU (before you even click Next or accept the terms), you can find rom.zip in "%TEMP%\{F313B180-FF83-48A8-B925-E14312A5AFCB}\{50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B}"
I'm sorry if this isn't being asked in the correct place but as this thread is already discussing the new ROM update I was hoping that someone here could please tell me whether or not this ROM update would SIM relock a SIM unlocked Rogers Magic phone?
I am asking because I should be recieving my new unlocked Rogers Magic (that I am going to be using on AT&T) any day now and while I wouldn't mind updating it with the new ROM I really don't want to go through the expense and hassle of having to SIM unlock it when part of the reason I bought the one I did on ebay is because it is already SIM unlocked. Thanks in advance for any information on this.

I really doubt it will. I don't know exactly how SIM unlocking works, but this update shouldn't touch those settings.
Why run the Rogers update with all of it's restrictions and crappy software? Download and install any one of the dozens of better ROMs available in this forum.
First let me admit that I am a total NOOB with Android and even the idea of flashing custom ROMs on cellphones (the phone I am upgrading from is an 8525 and had an 8125 before that and the only time I remember flashing either was updating the official ROM to 6.0 off of HTC's site). I guess this makes me a little behind the times but my idea of customizing was installing programs like Pockets Plus and then Mobile Shell 3 because I'm not a programmer and was a little intimidated about cooking the ROMS.
That said I was thinking of running the stock ROM atleast for a little while to get an idea of just what I like and don't like about it and then being more knowledgeable when I research what ROM I should upgrade to? Is there a list of the ROMs and what their customizations are for the Rogers version? Do you have any advise on what ROM's I should look at and what the differences are?
I'm afraid that I will be somewhat overwhelmed with the number of choices to be made. Besides, I use my phone on my job so I can't risk it having issues or having to reinstall everything on a regular basis so continually flashing it with new ROM's as they come out may not be a logical solution for me. I think I'd rather end up with something stable and able to use all the programs, etc that I need for work and play. Anyways, any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Your best bet would be to start off by running the ROM that it comes with. If you've got problems with timestamps in the ROM, use a program called ChompSMS.
Read this forum, look for information on the 32A HTC Magic. That's the version you are getting. Learn as much as you can without changing your phone at all. Once you've got enough information start by 'rooting' your phone, then play around with some custom ROMs.
Lots to learn around here. Make sure you use the search function.
The following link was made by skittleguy to try to combine all compatible roms for Rogers. There have been quite a few changes to most of these ROMS but you can go to each original thread and read up on different ROMs and their advantages and disadvantages. I believe most of the original threads are being updated from time to time, but you can always just do a search for the name of the ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=534464&highlight=repository
Personally if you want one that is stable and has all of its features working, I would go with Cyanogen's ROM v4.0.2 with Amon_RA'sv1.0.1 kernal. It is based of off MyTouch 3G. The link is below:

Having said that, there is one feature that I miss on this ROM, which is the smart dialpad.
T-mobile

hi guys,this is my first time posting here,and i really hope you guys can help me out
I have the htc magic,with the official SenseUI rom from htc.
I would like to revert back to the stock rom,so that i can root and use the custom roms that you guys have over here,its simply amazing!
I have searched high and low,but have not found an answer as to how to achieve this.
help would be really appreaciated!
my phone specs are:
Model : htc magic
Firmware version 1.5
Basband version 63.18.55.06HU_6.35.07.29
Kernal Version: [email protected]#901

CPLD-12
RADIO 0-6.35.07.29
This phone is from Starhub,in Singapore.
If it is possible to root,using the official senseUI please teach me how to,as when i tried to back up using the recovery flasher,the backup could not be done.
Thanks,css626
Hi, where did you get the official senseUI rom from, Where can i find it on htc site?
Thanks
Hello,i got the rom from the HTC website, here is the link http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=267&cat=2&dl_id=757
seems like you'd have to enter your phone's serial number to get it,i could upload it for you if you'd like.
Thanks for your help!
cheers! do i install rom as normal or do i have to partition sdcard? im on 32B
you'd have to install it as normal.
The official update from htc,i suppose its for 32A magics?
as over here in Singapore we get 32A magics
Ok mate thanks for your help.
To revert back to stock rom, did you do a nandroid backup before you flashed sense?
thanks again,and nope i did not,i just followed the instructions to on the htc website,as i am new to android
any way to solve this?
thanks in advance!
1.76.0007 is a perfected SPL and I don't think it has been hacked so far. There is one way to get an engineering SPL, but it's very dangerous and you might end up bricking your phone. Best thing to do is wait 'till someone finds a way to root the rom you've got.
i see,so there's no way to revert back to the stock rom as well?
Hi all have got a quick question here. With the new HTC HD2 Rom available from htc site, why can't i download it to my T-mobile phone. It keep telling me that it is not suitable for this device. And is there a way to get around this so i can download the new rom? Need any help i can get please.

Wrong thread, should post in ROM section.
You have a branded phone, these are official ROMS for unbranded phones, wayt till TM provides theire new ROM based on an official HTC ROM.
Or HSPL your phone (void warranty) and flash away
Had the same problem and flashed the latest ROM using SSPL. It was quite painless and the HD2 works fine. Do a search for SSPL or HSPL in this forum and all will be explained.
good luck
Why is it necessary to download the new rpm. I have the same problem. Just curious. My phone seems to be working nicely.
Use the below link to get the ROM and then grab a Goldcard and put the ROM on. Or you can follow the HSPL route instead if you prefer.
Will probably invalidate any TMo warranty you may have so be aware.

Sorry for super newbie question: I just want to update an HTC Magic SAPP100 to a new version of Android (2.x), and all I find when I google is people asking how to do unlock it (I don´t want to unlock it, it is already unlocked, I guess what I want is to root it), or people that have bricked their phone, or guides for Sapphire models that seem not to be the same as mine (32A and 32B are always mentioned, but mine in SAPP100).
Any ideas to enlighten me? Thanks very much.
PS: Can I use this guide? forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f606/htc-magic-stuck-voda-screen-1205134/#post_message_6944450
Good morning everyone,
I need some help. I'm selling my phone tomorrow and I want to make it stock as possible. Like a month ago I made my phone s-off to install the scandinavian ICS, but now the official ICS is released in all the european countries I want the official OTA on my sensation, so the new owner can get future ota updates.
I couldnt really find good threads, so I thought lets make a new one.
I found out you have to flash an old rom. I decided to go back to GB.
I found out this link... (cant post links, but the filefactory with all the ruu's)
Problem is that i dont know what radio version I had.
1.27.401.3 but so does 1.45.401.3
Is there a way to find out? Cause I cant find it anymore now I have ICS.
And whats the next step?
Hope you guys cant help me out.
Someone?
I guess you could just flash the RUU for your country & operator. If you also super cid'ed, then change the cid to default for your country/operator as well.
The sticky thread should be able to provide you with the details.
Cheers, Jp
