HTC branded (Airtel,India) Magic 32A
HBOOT-1.33.0010
Please proceed at your own risk. These worked for me. should work for all the HTC Magics in India. Dont know about the others.
Steps -
1. Download Recovery Flasher 1.4. Backup recovery image.
2. Download Amon_RA's RAv1.2.1H modded recovery image. Copy it at root of sd card. Rename it recovery.img
3. In Recover Flasher type “/sdcard/recovery.img”
4. Download "Engineering SPL 1.33.2005".(No other SPLs worked for me). Copy to root of memory card. Rename it to update.zip
5. Download any 32a Custom ROM (I used Amon_RA's). Copy to root of memory card. Rename to ROM.zip
5. Reboot in Recovery mode. (home+power). Backup with Nandroid.
6. Apply from sd card - update.zip. Reboot from menu after it says so. It will again boot into recovery mode. Seems to be stuck on "Clearing Cache....".
7. Reboot by pressing back+power. Check SPL is changed to 1.33.2005. Then power down.
8. Reboot into Recovery. Apply any zip from SD - ROM.zip
9. Once it is finished, WIPE THE PHONE from the recovery menu.
10. Reboot into a new android world.
Never used a Gold card. Those SPL's don't seem so perfect anymore.
Thanks to Amon_RA and all other developers.
Awesome job buddy.
Already rooted mine with a goldcard. But im interested in hearing how it works for people.
Please be aware that this method (using Zinx's recovery flasher) will probably NOT work for firmwares released after August 2009...
Will the SPL 1.33.2010 work, my magic is waiting for the fix to perfect SPL, i already bricked a my touch and dont want such to appen with my new 32a
Flash
I made the RUU update from: RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_HTC_Nordic_release_signed_NoDriver
to: RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_2.20.401.2_HTC_Nordic_release_signed_NoDriver
when I was root on my Magic, but after that, I cant do anything custom, not even flash in any way, so my root rights are gone and can never be regained?
info before RUU:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0010 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.20.17
After RUU:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0014 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.23.18
I can't figure out what to doo, please help me, I used the My Hero ROM before RUU and loved it, and now I am stuck with the dull HTC branded ROM
Isnt there already like 4 or 5 threads saying exactly the same walk through? or am i mistaken
Hi
Now I have :
pvt32a ship s on h
hboot 1.33.0010 sapp 10000
cpld 12
radio 3.22.20.17
I have custom recovery amonra 1.5.2H and Gyd2.1 ROM (without 2.1.1 update); I used the unlocker method to get root and new rom.
Will this method work for me also?

You have root already.
Post your adb output:
adb shell id
H:\>adb shell id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)
Like I said, all I did till now is to use the unlockr method to get root and install gyd2.1 rom ;
I also have amonra recov 1.5.2h ;
thanks in advance for your support. Means a lot.
later edit : in another thread I already posted that I have managed to create a goldcard (sandisk 2GB) ; I guess it;s ok cause when I insert it in my laptop the pc doesn't require me to format it and it's accessible.

Functionality of using goldcard is ONLY avoiding check for Customer ID.
And now what? can I flash just the eng 2005 spl? If so, would the procedure described in post no 1(this thread) would do the trick?

As you have SPL 1.33.0010 and phone 32A you may flash rather SPL 1.33.2010 (same in my signature)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529019
Ok, thanks for your quick reply.
So, it is enough just to get 2010 spl, boot in recovery and flash it? No gold card, no other rom flash no nothing?
Like I said before I'm using amonra recover 1.5.2h ; This sounds too good to be true

SPL is like BIOS at computer. You only flash engineering SPL via recovery and nothing more.
If you want try some custom ROMs (with SenseUi or with Droid UI) you may do it via recovery too. But beware official RUU updates and updates, which contained hboot
thank you very much for your support. I just switched to 1.33.2010 eng spl ;

I had a goldcard created just in case. All I had to do is to flash the spl from the recov menu.
worked like a charm.
From now on, can I attempt to flash any rom I want? For now I should keep away from RUUs right?
thanks again mate.

Yes. But use only Roms with tag [32A]
p.s. Cursorsense is not compatible with SPL 1.33.XXXX
yeap, I was reading the entire cursorsense thread now. I intend to update the radio and the spl to try the rom.
From spl 1.33.2010 i can simply flash 1.76 required for cursor right? and the radio also; I've read that there's a way to return to 1.33.2010 eng spl if I would like to try other roms.
What I don't understand, why this limitation to that specific spl ver from cursorsense rom? it is not based on 1.5 cupcake? This is still pretty unclear to me. Is it because of the kernel 3.x ?
Thanks again mate. You really gave me the strength to flash
did anyone come close to solving the Perfected SPL problem with HBOOT 1.33.0010 ?
We keep getting "Main Version is Older" when trying to apply the Engineering SPL using a goldcard... any solutions out there?

Don't need a goldcard method
DO YOU HAVE 32A MAGIC? ELSE DON'T DO IT. 1.33.2010 not recommended to flash over 32B-devices
If you have firmware version Cupcake 1.5 just flash last recovery
Then via recovery flash only ENG 1.33.2010: http://rapidshare.com/files/267475618/update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2010-signed.zip
wait, dont we have to follow this guide [How-To] Fix perfected SPL (fastboot remote: not allow)
since we do have a perfected SPL?
and yes my device is a 32A
so i renamed the file you game me to update.zip, put it in the SD card, then booted to recovery mode and tried to run the update.zip but it said that there was no signiture and it failed. any ideas?
did you tryied the one click method???
Try using flashrec to do it...
Or...
Using the goldcard method ensure you havce done everything right to make the goldcard and use the first sappimg.zip (v2.53.707.2) in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548218
All you need to do is to keep the name as sappimg.zip (remove the numbers) and start your device with volume down + power...
the flashrec did work... thanks
This ROM is a nearly stock 1.6 Donut ROM, based on the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G Limited Fender Edition. It has all of the T-Mobile apps in it too.
Thanks to crypysmoker for testing some rather dangerous SPL/radio stuff on his phone.
Requirements for this ROM
- MyTouch 3G Limited Fender Edition OR MyTouch 3G 1.2
- Rooted recovery environment
- Stock MT3G 32A Radio and SPL
---- Radio: 2.22.23.02
---- SPL: 1.33.0013
---- Amon_RA Sapphire G Recovery
- Ability to read and comprehend English for the instructions
Downgrade/root your MyTouch3g 1.2/Fender using the normal means. I think the goldcard method works. Check this thread for more information. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622530.
After rooting, you will have a 32A phone that will not (at this point) have a working touchscreen on any ROM.
Download and extract this ZIP file. http://www.theandroidkitchen.com/fileshare/MyTouch3g32A/?download=MT3GStockRadioSPL.zip
Boot into FASTBOOT, flash the radio, then the SPL/HBOOT, then Amon_RA Sapphire G recovery, then press Menu to power off your phone. Boot into recovery and you now can flash this ROM. Make sure that you flash the radio, SPL and recovery at the same time without rebooting in between.
Code:
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash hboot hboot_7201A_1.33.0013G_091021.nbo
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2G.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then boot into recovery by holding Home and pressing Power and you can flash this ROM.
Features:
- root, of course
- busybox
- Superuser.apk
I don't have one of these phones, so I'm not sure what works and what doesn't, but I hope this gets you guys back up and running without reverting to the T-Mobile non-rooted ROM. crypysmoker is testing most functions out right now.
Enjoy!
MT3GFender32A-Stock-1.0-signed.zip
Please keep all issues in this thread. Again, please remember that I don't have one of these phones, so I can't directly test fixes for anything. I will rely on you guys for that.
I accept no responsibility for damage to your device, but this is just a ROM, so it's damn near impossible for this to damage your device.
It´s for 32A too?
Thanks.
Thank alot. Im hoping this helps us out trying to figure out the whole no touch screen problem. If anyone can also find the radio and spl that comes with this phone it would be greatly appreciated.
I unrooted lastnight to take the phone back but Ill start again with this as a base..
I will be sooo happy if clicky clicky works lol

1.try this rom first...
2.Flash radio back and try rom, or other rom..
3Flash spl and radio back... but then have no root to fastboot to flash rom lol
This phone has turned out to be a doosey.
Again, main thing that makes me mad, is now it is branded with google instead of HTC now and says 32b rather then 32a which I think may be the main problem.
EDIT-- Oops.. that was a perfected SPL.. re-re rooting now. Amen ras base is still booting. once its done Ill go for this rom.
Ok after re rooting, Im back to where I was with 1.33.2010 and 3.xxx radio.

Here's your stock SPL and radio. I warn you though, don't flash the SPL. Use the 1.33.2010 SPL. I'll post a link to that as well.
1.33.2010 SPL
Stock MT3G 1.2 32A SPL and Radio
Extract the SPL/Radio ZIP File and put hboot-1.33.2010.img and the radio.img into one folder. Download the Amon_RA Sapphire H recovery.
Type in these commands with your phone in FASTBOOT mode:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2H.img
Apply the 1.33.2010 SPL update.zip through recovery, reboot your phone, then boot into FASTBOOT again.
In FASTBOOT mode, type this on your PC:
Code:
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2H.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Your phone will boot back into FASTBOOT. Check to see that you now have:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32a SHIP S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP31000)
RADIO-2.22.23.02
You will now also have Amon_RA Sapphire H recovery flashed on your phone, so you can boot straight to it by holding Home and pressing Power.
Flash the update file and let me know how it works.

Bad thing
SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32b eng S-off H
Since I followed Amen ras instructions after reading them 100 times.. I for the life of me cannot figure out how I got this to say 32b. it makes no sense to me at all unless there was a major revision to the NAND or other hardware for these
its also doing the fun part like it did when I went to your rom/radio to where recovery just will not boot.

Oops, you werent done uploading.... Flashing now....
Radio changed... Info at top did not.. Argh.. what would have made it change?
Since I know the goldcard method works and I can downgrade... Should I try the stock spl also? is it like the G1 where radio is first then spl? If none of this works then somethign has been changed in the hardwhere because the other guy in my thread that got hsi rooted has the same exact problem.

It's worth trying the stock SPL, see if that alone changes the 32B to 32A.
If you have Amon_RA Recovery installed and not the stock recovery, you should be able to leave the Stock SPL flashed.
First flash the stock radio, then the stock SPL, then flash the Amon_RA Sapphire H recovery, then 'fastboot reboot-bootloader' to see if your changes worked.

Wouldn't advise it.. it's Fender only (RADIO-2.22.23.02).
Try this Fender rom instead if you want to try it with your current radio/SPL.

DO NOT FLASH IT... those are only for the fender as they are the only ones that allow for anythign to work properly. flashing them to your board may kill your phone
thansk for answer.
I can confirm this works on stock radio & spl Any chance you can add multitouch and netfilter support when you have time?

... I thought it was usually bad to have a 3.x radio on a 32B.
Can you still fastboot?

Yes, I can use fastboot and flashed recovery
I don't know why our dev doesn't post SPL with radio, as I know each SPL come with a radio, if you use fastboot flash correct a pair without reboot between flash them, your device never bricked
i thought it was currently not possible to root the.010 perfected spl
be it 1.76.0010 or 1.33.0010
how did you do it
i have a new g1 that has 0010 and would like to root it
You must have a goldcard and you will be able to upgrade to any nbh file for G1. (I have a devphone nbh, I will find it and share)
excellent, thank you
please advise when you have found it
in the magic forum there is a post making a gold card
can i follow those instructions?
Hi,
My phone is running in radio 3.22.20.17, SPL 1.33.2010 but S-ON which prevent me from using the fastboot flash command as explained by cursordroids in the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605239
I'm thinking of using another procedure by using Amon RA recovery image and flashing signed update.zip for the radio and for the SPL.
The problem with this procedure is that my phone reboots in between the two updates (the radio update and the spl update) so at one point, i've got a phone running Radio version 6.35.xxx and the old SPL 1.33.2010.
I've no idea how the phone will react. Am i going to birck it ? Does anybody already tried this ?
Thanks for your feedbacks.
Seriously? Did you even read his instructions?
----- If you do not have an Engineering SPL, download 1.33.2010 and flash through recovery before starting this procedure. Flash the SPL update.zip like any other update.zip file.
Straight from his post.
How much more simple does a dev have to make it in order for members like you to do this.

Now, what i would do if i were him is the following.
Test if the command fastboot boot recovery.img works.
If it does then i would flash the radio through the recovery, afterwards i would boot the HERO recovery and use it to flash the new spl.
Bare in mind that i did not test this method and nor do i plan to test it.
Hi,
Thanks eygor that have pointed correctly my situation.
So YES i can fastboot (i need to add some flags as my magic disable the sdcard by default) and this what i'm going to use.... flashing via a signed zip file BUT i do not know how the phone will react by having a radio 6.35.10.18 dissociated from the SPL (still in version 1.33.2010....yes the engineering version).
Anybody has had any experience with this. ?
Question:
- My rom is rooted, am i able to use flash_image to update the SPL and the radio ?
- Receovry_Ra does not provide the flash_image command or am i wrong ?

LOL Please show where he says that it's an engineeringSPL.
Anyways, if you got fastboot working why not work from there? If you're asking what I think youre asking cause I'm not sure... you just flash radio in fastboot and then flash SPL (doesnt matter if you still have the old spl , just flash the new one after radio) then flash recovery
1.33.2010
Sounds like an engineering SPL.
If you have a 32A device, use the 3.04.401.2 Europe RUU with a goldcard. Then use the SU within that ROM to install hero recovery. Finally use hero recovery to flash the rest of the stuff you need.

Hi xaueious,
I've read the article explaining the use of 3.04.401.2 Europe RUU with a goldcard.
They clearly mention to copy rom1.zip into the Goldcard and rename it SAPPIMG.zip
(see post from JcMatos http://forum.xda-developers.com/printthread.php?t=625108&pp=10&page=7)
My problem is that rom1.zip does not contain any upgrade of the radio or the SPL (it's contained in the rom.zip). So if i follow correctly the instruction, i get my magic updated with a new rom but still with my old SPL and Radio remains identical. I do have a high risk of having my magic bricked.
Am i missing something ?
