Semi bricked HTC Magic - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

I can get in to the recovery screen and the fastboot menu (although the computer can't detect the device in fastboot). I don't know how it was bricked because I got it like this.
I've tried flashing a proper ROM cyanogen mod but that doesn't fix it. When attempting to boot the phone it gets stuck at the ROGERS boot screen permanently.

Maybe try another machine/cable?

Magic is 32A, cyanogen mod is for 32B. Flash this file as a normal update.

Is my phone bricked?

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.

[Q] Partially bricked i9020t - help wanted

Hi;
I've new to this forum so please be patient with me.
I just bought an 19020t and went about unlocking the boot loader + rooting the phone as the previous owner did a bad job of updating the firmware, which killed the wifi on the phone (I need this for market place/tethering).
I've so far managed to root the phone (stupidly almost completely bricked it) and was stuck on the fastboot screen - cannot find boot or system img (fixed with a fastboot flash boot boot.img).
However, I've now found myself in the situation of oply booting to the clockwordworkmod recovery screen and can't proceed beyond this point.
Can anyone provide me a link to a file (not sure which one i need - system, boot img) that I could use so I can atleast get to the Android system?

when i rebootet the problem startet. when i boot the Sensation gets stuck at the green HTC logo at boot.
i can access the andoird menu via Volume down + Power
i managed to install the bootloader 1.17.2008 form here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20681060&postcount=22
i have super-CID
i have the fasboot commands
i used to have the CWD recovery mode. now when i hit RECOVERY in the android menu i can't get into CWDs menu.
i get a screen with a phone and a red triangle and the phone doesn't do anthink.
i use the Hypersensation as ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302969
does anyone have a clue how i ca fix it so that i can boot again.
i have a NAND Backup on my SD card and on my computer.
EDIT: I managed to get CWM working again by flashing the CWM files again via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242942
than i coulld restore my old NAND Backup
You rewrote the recovery partition too, when flashing the RUU.
If you are already on 1.17, then download a CWM and
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and hopefully after the next reboot you will be able to get in to recovery from bootloader
EDIT: oh, I see you already managed to get a CWM on , glad it worked out

Please any help will be appreciated, thanks
Ok, the phone boot up, an old mistake after flashing a custom ROM flash again the boot.img of the ROM.
For noobs:
1. unlock your bootloader
2. flash a custom recovery
3. enter recovery and flash a custom rom
5. with winrar open the .zip of your custom rom and extract just the boot.img
4. boot in fastboot mode and flash the boot.img you extracted, for that in windows enter in cmd and: fastboot flash boot boot.img
5. reboot your phone it should boot up
If theres any mistake please let us know.
Well as I comment before I can boot up in the custom rom, but I face a new problem, I can turn on wifi and can see all the networks but the phone didnt connect I reset my router and my device with no luck, even I flash a new rom but same problem, the phone try to connect to my network but nothing, any idea???
