Rogers Magic+ Upgradeable to T-Mobile Official 1.6 Update? - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

Is that above question possible? What would happen?
Magic+ is the Magic with the 911 firmware.

no
The Rogers Magic now has a perfected SPL, which not (yet) rootable. So, no 1.6 Donut for you. Best we can hope for is that Rogers hurries up with its Android 2.1 update for this unit.

HTC Releases Sense UI For The HTC Magic

As reported on Android Central here

Download on HTC Europe here
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=267&cat=2&dl_id=862
I entered the S/N of my Vodafone AU 32B however the webpage said the download is "not available for your device", I assume this is a 32A update.
Any chance of a backport to 32B?
Nobody has been able to download the update, not even the users with 32A. I know cuse i tried
Same here...32A and can't download it. CursorSense uses newer version anyway
goldcard
can we use this version to on a goldcard? i'm stuck with the stupid rogers update with perfected spl (1.76.0010)
I have a MyTouch 3G and I am in the UK. Will this work? And also, it isn't working for me neither
what android version is it? 1,5 still?

If your in the UK, it's most likely you have a Vodafone-branded HTC Magic. MyTouch 3G is the US T-Mobile branding for the HTC Magic.
However, both the MyTouch 3G & the Vodafone HTC Magic have one thing in common - they're both 32B. Trying to use that RUU will brick your phone.
I know what I have. It is the MyTouch 3G branded T-Mobile. I bought it and had it shipped from US.
This has been confirmed for 32A with Perfect SPL

Hopefully some nice dev will do a 32B port. I guess HTC don't think the 32B with its' decreased amount of RAM is an ideal platform for Sense.
Works Great been running it for a week now.. Rogers in Canada put this update out last week.. Love the Sense UI.. they also upped the Clock speed too..

Official HTC Sense Upgrade for Vodafone Magic (32B?)

I post it in G1 forum cause if it will be true maybe you can make an custom Rom for G1/MT3G.
On the German site of HTC it is posted that an upgrade for HTC Magic Vodafone is available which brings HTC Sense to it.
I tried to download it, but it was not possible for me.
Cause I'm a new user, it is not possible for me to post the link from the german htc update site. You can try to search for the ROM-Version: 2.16.151.3 (HTC Magic Vodafone) Release Date: 2010-02-08
there is also a ROM for non Vodafone Magics 32A is -Version:3.05.401.3 Release Date: 2010-01-28
I hope if the update is available that Bluetooth works with 23B hardware
I wish. :-(
The Hero is also a 32A. The same reason why the Hero's sense isn't perfect in our 32B's is still there in the 32A Magics.
I'm closing the thread to prevent a flame war.

Official HTC Upgrade for Vodafone Magic (No sense so nvm)

A mod just closed this thread because a newbie posted it, but this is actually legit. Thanks kitu-miyashi
ROM-Upgrade mit HTC Sense™ für HTC Magic (Vodafone)
Release Date: 2010-02-08
http://www.htc.com/de/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=267&cat=2&dl_id=875
I think this is the first HTC Sense update for the 32B platform.
I want to know what radio and spl this contains, even if this probably is just a patched Android 1.5
Can someone run the RUU and extract the nbh?
Edit:
What the hell are there 32A Magic German Vodafones now? Sorry if I am behind the curve. Someone just extract the nbh and put me out of my misery.
http://www.htc.com/de/product/magic/specification.html
I don't know.
If they have 32A Magics now, it's probably 32A then. Move it to the Sapphire thread to be buried.
Sorry for wasting your time guys if this is the case.
Edit2:
Allow me to replicate what has been said over at the German forums.
HTC screwed up the serial check on the webpage, so not even the German users are able to download the update. The Germans are freaking out about why they can't download the update. Some have emailed HTC, and HTC isn't sending the file (http://www.android-hilfe.de/htc-magic/16902-htc-sense-rom-fuer-vodafone-verfuegbar.html).
The Germans suspect that this is indeed a Sense UI for the 32B, as it is ROM-Version:2.16.151.3 with a date of Feb 8.
To compare, the 32A Sense UI released by HTC is ROM-Version:3.05.401.3, with a date of Jan 28.
Why the heck would HTC release a newer rom with an older version string?
Also, the 32B German Vodafone Magic is only known to be 32B. See for yourself: http://www.htc.com/de/product/magic/specification.html
The official word from Vodafone is that the update IS LEGIT FOR 32B VODAFONE MAGICs. But it is distributed via OTA via Vodafone this month.
What we do know is that the rom has been cooked by HTC, and it is Sense UI for 32B.
Edit3:
Not sense. HTC made a typo.
This is old news and a rom based on it was made and you should look around. Compare the specs of the Dream and Magic then try to figure out why the Dream wont be getting this update.

This is not old news. The VF Magic is a 32B and this is the first official Sense UI for the 32B. So far it has only been done for the 32A with a 6 series radio.
This update either contains a Sense UI system image with support for the 3 series radio, or a new 6 series SPL for the 32B board.
I'm not posting this for the Dream. If a mod feels like it they can move this to Magic Dev, but I thought this is the place to talk about 32B Magic work.

Is there a ROM that is SenseUI based, and not a HERO ROM?? what ROM are you talking about, I was wondering if there was a port from the 32a updates
I doubt this update works for the 32B Dream.

I'm not saying this ROM is any good. This is just an official update and we can probably pull some useful bits of out it.

The HTC Hero runs the Sense UI which is found on the tatoo and Sapphire or Rogers.The rom from jcarz is based on a Sense rom for Magic so yes, there is a sense rom avail and I think one of MLIGN's roms are based off of a Magic dump.

sometimes the OTA updates take awhile to start up, but I dont think this is old news if this is the official SenseUI update for the 32b boards, might be able to get a dump from it

I understand all that, i thought all the roms we had were HERO ROM based, cause the Tattoo doesnt run a HERO build its runs a SenseUI donut 1.6 I thought

Non of these ROMs have bt working. And maybe this new upgrade is optimized vor the low ram size

My point was that they all run the Sense UI and the Hero isnt running some special version of it.The only difference is the boot screen that says hero and shows a android moving on the Magic.Tatoo is barely popular and no roms here are based on it cause it was too difficult to port.

Htc branded
...htc.com/de/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=862&news_id=510

i know the tattoo dump was difficult due to the difference in screen size, but a official update for 32b might be a bit more refined with the SenseUI. I just thought there might be a use for the 32b update the dude above has the right idea it might be optimized for our ph0nes, instead of a huge HERO ROM

you always ramble incorrect information. different phones are running different versions of sense ui. also tattoo was difficult to port because of the resolution. eugene ported it though.
also the tattoo is a donut hero.
anyone have a serial number we can use to download the update?
Can I upgrade for my Google ION ? Anyone have IME of Vodafone Magic ?
well this is official for HTC Magic 32B will it work on my mytouch? and I want it now!

Rogers 32A SPL

If I'm looking to buy a rogers 32A that has been upgraded to the 3.05 official sense, does that mean I can't root?
is 1.76.0010 the spl that the rogers update applies or is it 0009? and which of the 1.76 series spl's are actually rootable?
Thanks.
Jcarrz1
009 OR 010, It doesn't matter
U can run that roger ruu to see the version. I think .010. So far 009 and 010 are perfected spl if it is S-On. But 009 is hackable if it S-Off.
Cheers.
Oh I see. Thanks forthe help. Does anyone know what s-on or s-off means?
I saw cursordroid mention it in a thread, but i didnt catch on to what it meant.
Thanks,
Jcarrz1
Security-on. Security-off
If you buy a 32-a from rogers it will be un-rootable until someone figures out how to hack the new spl

thanks.............!
In my experience the firmware isn't as bad as people make it to be.
The ROM is 3.05.631.7
You can cross flash to any other 3.05 ROM as long as you have a goldcard. Everyone on 3.05 is waiting for a newer or equal version that has a fastbootable SPL.
SPL is 0009
