Right here.
Do you have Amon Ra's Recovery ? Either 1.5.2 or 1.6.2 will work fine.

No i do not have Amon Ra's recovery...I just ordered a 8gb class 6 card...I was told I needed this....

This is the wrong section of the forums. This is for development only. Go here.

Going from microlabs rom to another rom

i did a hardspl and i am using microlabs newest rom and despite what everyone else says its really glitchy and has frozen up soo many times on me and i wanna just use ivanmmj's justme clean rom and install touchflo 2d (if there is even a way to do that). anyway do i need to go back to an orginal tmobile rom or can i just flash another rom over the microlab one? sorry i just dont wanna brick my fone
You can flash over it. Just remember: JustMe requires that you flash through an SD card formatted as FAT32.
Also, installing TouchFLO2D is possible on ANY ROM. (TouchFLO2D itself is VERY buggy, though.)
On a different note: You may get a warning from the MOD for posting this here. Please remember that the Development subforum is to talk about Developing ROMs. Normally, you'd want to post in one of the other Herald subforums.
thx alot but also under the subforum has a description that says rom issues as well as rom development thats why i posted here, sorry if its in the wrong place and again thx for the help
hehe I always thought about stating that but never did

Ok seeing as I was on the sapphire forever and no body responded

I figure I would try here since I still have a G1 and now I also own a Mytouch
I got a Mytouch from a friend and it was already rooted running a hero rom now I want to run Cyans latest and I know that you have to download a recovery image then his roms in order for them to work . I was wondering since I am new to this phone how would I go about that process. I have downloaded the recovery image from the HTC site for my mytouch but it wont install....I was curious
Yes Yes I know wrong forum but I am true G1 user just now with a spare new Mytouch to mess with

follow this http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Upgrading_From_Older_CyanogenMod_Versions
then once u have 4.1.99 u can follow this after that http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Main_Page#How_do_I_upgrade_to_the_latest_CyanogenMod.3F
this is the development section so i am sure the mods will move this thread to Q&A where it belongs
Yeah I should have known better to post here but it was just so frustrating lol thank you
Well before I get this thread moved would anyone have a download to that HTC ADP 1.6 DRC83...the link to androidspin is not working
This is for a Mytouch:
http://developer.htc.com/google-io-device.html
OK well I have the recovery image on therew but would I need 1.5 or 1.6 cause I did the 1.6 and nothing but I have yet to try the 1.5...I know this is odd but the GF wants the mytouch so going to help her
Cyanogen's roms are all 1.6 so u would need the 1.6
You need the 1.6 if you are doing any cyno newer than 4.1.9999999
Basically, what cyno is doing to get around the google c&d is making an update that mods the original base google 1.6, hence why we have to flash first the google ADP 1.6 then the update from Cyno. Hope this helps, and slowly counting down til this gets moved in 3....2......1......

The closest-to-original Hero ROM for 32A Magic

Today I've got an HTC Magic, 32A version, and I want to make it run Sense UI so can anybody please tell me which ROM should I install?
You can give me link to the thread for that ROM, and if you can, a link to How To Install ROM on Android tutorial...
Thank you very much.
And please forgive me if theres already thread about this, I'm just so excited.

but for this he has to put hero spl n radio
i would prefer u to use this
its fast and very nice looking rom
Here it is << click
Thats way too complicated, I need some clean install rom that looks and feels exactly like on HTC Hero...
What u want is CursorSense....
Read this wiki on how to get around your magic... (Rooting, flashing SPL so on...)
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Sapphire_Hacking
once you read through the wiki flash an engineering spl to your phone and then go through CursorDroids guide on how to flash his rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592856
Thank you, that looks awesome. But it sounds as complicated as the first suggestion. C an I just download it and load it somehow? And what do you think about 2.1 hero rom?
It really isn't too much work to get the new SPL and Radio installed if you follow the instructions. Very little risk involved, as long as you follow instructions.
Can anyone please tell me how to install myhero rom it is way easier from what i see than all of these and im n00b so i dont know anything about roms.

Please read the Sapphire hacking Wiki.
the search for threads that instruct you on how to root your phone.
You'll probably end up using a program called Recovery Flasher, or Flashrec.
As long as you don't flash your SPL first thing, you can't brick your phone.
Flashing Magic GyD (32A) is less complicated.
It's probably the best MagicSense rom out right now.
I haven't tried CursorSense yet though, so what's it about anyway? Flashing a Hero rom with a Hero SPL? So you can run roms meant for the HTC Hero?
So when 2.1 Sense comes out for Hero that would work fine on the SPL right?
Can CursorSense be run on an HTC Hero?
my-hero 2.0.5 is my choice. GyD always gave me trouble (the software, not the guy ;-))
Im new in this whole android thing but i can see myself flashing phone etc. because im pretty god at symbian and OSx, but both WM and Android are so new experience for me, thats why i came here. I've read it but i still don't get it.
Which programs for computer and for phone should i first download if i want to install myhero 2.0.5 since i already downloaded the rom...?
please, be patient with me, i want to do all of this but im just not capable of doing it at the moment.
thaanks
Well I just checked out CursorSense and it's very worth it if you want a solid Hero rom. It's the fastest, I've seen.
I think 2.1 roms will be developed on that SPL/Radio soon.
try this

Yes definitely, I agree that this is probably the best and safest way to root your phone.
ok, i think im gonna read some more about cursorsense and finally, if i have guts, im gonna do it. If i decide that i cannot, im gonna try myhero or this visual thingy
Please please please just tell me if this http://www.karrderized.com/romguide/ is what i have to do to install myhero 2.0.5. without bricking the device?

OK, first of all, you need to know your SPL version.
Power off your phone.
Start it up by holding Back and pressing Power.
Type all of that information into this thread and then we can help point you in the right direction.
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.22.0009 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.20.17
I also tried to install one click to root but i couldnt manage to get Hero rom (again -.- ) because of Can't chown/mod /system/xbin error, line 18. The same error i got when i tried to install MyHero 2.0.5
You cant flash any other roms to your phone until you get an engineering spl flashed... thats what the S-ON indicates... once you have an eng spl it will say S-OFF and you will be able to flash whatever to your phone... the first thing you need is another recovery though i recommend amon ra's

Wrong section. There's a Q&A section, please read and search before blindly asking questions -- and in the wrong forum! (not minimodding)
Anyways, you need to better explain your problem. What steps have you taken, what's taking so long, etc.
