Please - Need Assistance with Rogers HTC Magic 32A on AT&T service - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

I just bought this phone about 3 days ago. When I received it, everything worked beautifully. It was already rooted and network unlocked.
Foolishly...FOOLISHLY...I tried to play around with updating the ROM to something newer than the 1.5 + Sense UI that it was running. I screwed it up, and then decided to "rectify" my problem by flashing the latest Rogers update to the phone.
That got my phone to boot back up again, but as you could all probably guess, I was then presented with the Rogers E911 issue of not being able to access any data network, and being locked to Edge.
I had no idea about any of this, and am now hoping that one of you can help me salvage my brand new phone that I just paid $260 for.
Rogers HTC Magic 32A
AT&T service
HBOOT-1.76.0010
CPLD-12
RADIO- 6.35.10.18
I am locked to Edge only for voice now, and am locked out of any data usage. As far as I can tell I also lost my root on the phone.
I called AT&T, and I am fine from their end. I even placed my SIM in a friend's phone and I was able to access 3G right away, so that's not the problem.
I called Rogers, and they told me since I am not a Rogers customer, than there is nothing they can do for me and that the problem must be with AT&T, not them.
I tried to fill out that Rogers online waiver, but it would not accept my IMEI number.
After reading and researching everywhere for the past 48 hours I thought I might have found a solution with CursorSense32A, but then I was not able to perform the required actions.
Can anyone help me in any way? Please.
Thank you.

So, I figured it out!
Apparently the APN setting were erased when I updated the ROM. I created a new AT&T APN and then seconds later everything worked perfectly again.

Just an FYI, you are a bit confused about the e911 issue and Rogers.
There was a bug in Android that would cause the phone to reboot if you called 911 and had GPS on. It took Rogers a few months to start caring and then forced updates out. Anyone who hadnt updated had data access removed. This was done on the Rogers network and wouldn't have affected you on AT&T.

well the good thing is, is that your data is up and running.. bad thing is, is that you now have a non-rooted phone.. and stuck on perfected spl.... if the phone was rooted and unlocked running 1.5 you probably were running cursordroids rom, since you tried to install another rom, you probably didnt check to see if it was for old or new radio.... since cursors runs new radio, you probably installed a rom for old radio.. hence why it didnt work.. now you installed the latest rogers rom.. and your hooped.....

^^^^^ Pressure, had it going on now is locked

My TP2 Won't turn on, please help!

Hello All,
I hope someone can help me with this.
I have a TP2 (Sprint) and I need to use it for At&t.
The first thing I did was unlock the device using RhodiumWUnlocker from Olipro (and made my donation ).
I did all steps, and everything went fine. No problems. And it detected AT&T
Then I flashed the ROM with EnergyROM Leo Manila 2.5 WM6.5 v 16Feb2010, By NRGZ28. (File: Energy.RHOD500.23529.Leo_MaxManila.16.Feb.2010.rar) - Still all well, no problems.
Then it went back to stock and could not detect AT&T. So I flashed the Radio Version: 4.49.25.91 from this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=549939.
Now I cannot turn on my phone at all - No "touchpro2" screen, no bootloader, nothing at all. The phone doesn't react to any combinations of buttons to turn on or load up bootloader. When I connect the phone to the computer (Vista by the way) the charging orange light comes on for about 3 minutes then goes off. Then I press the power button and the light comes back on, but nothing else happens to the phone.
Please help!!! Let me know what's wrong and how I can fix it, please!!! I'll make another donation to fix it.
Thanks!
I'm no expert but it sounds like you may have flashed a CDMA Rhodium with GSM firmware. I had a quick look and it seems the Sprint Rhodium is CDMA, you should have a look at the CDMA Rhodium forum here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=517
I'm not totally sure of the GSM / CDMA thing because I'm not in the U.S. it's not something I need to worry about.
Good luck dude
Yeah the more I look at this, the more I am convinced this is what has happened.
You used CDMA HardSPL (RhodiumWUnlocker)
Then flashed a CDMA ROM (Energy.RHOD500 ...)
but your mistake was to flash a GSM Radio ROM (I followed the URL you gave and up popped the GSM Radio ROM thread)
I don't know if this is recoverable but searching the CDMA forum would be a good start. You can't be the first person this has happened to.
Thanks for the response, but I am certain I flashed the correct ROM.
*I went to the wingster website
*I selected CDMA ROM's
*Clicked on EnergyROM Leo
*Clicked on Download - Hotfile.com
*Selected this ROM: Energy.RHOD500.23529.Leo_MaxManila.16.Feb.2010.rar
When I flashed this ROM, the phone loaded up without any issues. The only problem was that I could not make calls because it could not detect the AT&T SIM card. So I flashed the radio shown on the post from xda, and the PC said congratulations, everything is complete and good. At this time, the cell phone rebooted and it just never came back on.
Thanks for the help!!
Thanks MadBeef, I will research the CDMA forum.
The Main ROM you flashed was fine. It's the Radio ROM you flashed that killed it, because your phone is CDMA hardware but now it has GSM Radio ROM on it. That's my theory anyway, I'm hoping someone a bit more experienced with CDMA will be able to chime in.
If you can get back into the bootloader somehow, you should be able to flash a CDMA Radio ROM.
I only read the first line of your problem...sprint to at&t...it can never happen. Sprint is cdma which has no sim and at&t is a gsm which has a sim. You better have insurance so you can run over your now "speed bump" and get a new one.

ROM fine.
Radio ROM = BAD.
RHOD400 and RHOD500 are the model numbers for the Sprint and Verizon TP2s respectively. Other carriers also share these model numbers, but those are the big two.
The Radio ROM you flashed however is for the GSM only TP2, not the combo CDMA/GSM TP2 that you have.
Flashing that Radio ROM was a HUGE no-no. Boom.

You should put a little more time into research before jumping in with the flip comments.
1) Sprint does have SIM cards. I've got one in my hand. (No, they're not used in all phones of course, but Sprint does have their own).
2) The Sprint Touch Pro 2 can very well be used on ATT once it is security unlocked and a patched Radio ROM is flashed. To say "it can never happen" is flat out wrong because it's been happening for a few months.
3) The CDMA Touch Pro 2 models (RHOD400 and RHOD500) aren't just CDMA. They are CDMA/GSM/UMTS worldphones, supporting operation in all three modes.
I'm Sorry Gamescan if I did not understand correctly. Does this mean there is no help? There's absolutely nothing I can do to revert this and fix it?
I really appreciate all the help!!
I wanted to reply to Akademik's comment, but I didn't have time. This is not the first phone I flash, but it is the first CDMA/GSM phone. I know this phone is dualmode, else I wouldn't have bought it to use it in AT&T.
Thanks again!

Can you connect to it via a mtty terminal?
I don't know if the SD card flash method would work here. If it were my phone I'd try it, but if it's not getting as far as the bootloader I think the chances are slim Maybe while there is no SIM card in it, give the radio ROM less to do?
Found some CDMA radios here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=90342
Sounds like you might be screwed but there's a few ideas you can try. Good luck.

this result is based on shenriquez american flag in his pro. basically saying hes in america using an american sprint tp2 and trying to use american att service.
gamescan, if i said it cant be dont its quite obvious ive done research through trials and also working a phone carrier for 3 years before finding a better job...THIS CANNOT BE DONE. the dual mode in the sprint tp2 is ment for when people travel to europe, they can pop their "european sim" in and be on their merry way. european cell towers accept the frequency of the sprint tp2 and establish a connection. the US towers have "locked out" tmo and att from being used in the sprint tp2. the reason why you found att on connection setup was that your phone was basically saying" yes att is here, but your not connecting". shenriquez i followed the link to the radio you flashed before you got "shut off". you shouldnt have flashed a GSM radio on a SPRINT TP2...you are bricked my dude. you gave your phone a seizure man.

Google mtty (or search for it on here).
Short version it's text based, but it's pretty much the lowest level access that a consumer can get to a HTC device without ripping the sucker open, manually desoldering the flash chip and putting in another.
If you're not getting the tri-color bootloader screen, there is still the possibility of saving it via terminal commands, but it's not straightforward (and depending on what happened it is certainly NOT guaranteed).

Only it can be done.
With the tools mentioned in this here very forum.
Any many people have done it.
Again, you're not doing your research and making claims that are flat out wrong.
1) The Sprint TP2 hardware does support the US GSM frequencies.
2) The Sprint TP2 hardware does not ship with a SIM lock.
3) The Sprint TP2 hardware does ship with the two US GSM frequencies disabled in software.
4) If you pay for the Olinex security unlocker you can easily flash a patched radio ROM which re-enabled the two disabled frequencies.
About the only correct thing said in the post above is that he should not have flashed a radio ROM from a GSM-only TP2 to a CDMA/GSM combo TP2. The two devices do have different hardware so flashing the wrong drivers *IS* a BAD THING(tm).
But, assuming you have paid for the security unlocker, flashing a Sprint TP2 with an updated radio ROM is stupid easy and once you've done that making it work on ATT or TMO in the US requires nothing more than slotting in an active SIM card and switching the phone to GSM mode.
If you don't know the answer to something, please feel free to ASK about it, but don't make unfounded and incorrect statements. When you state an absolute that is false it just spreads misinformation which makes things confusing for other users, especially those new to the device.

Prove your lame theory. Links that sprint gsm will connect to US towers. Even links in "this very forum". Different frequencies dude.
My two cents -- as I am new, too -- but I ran into a similar situation trying to update the radio on my Verizon TP2 due to 1X issues. My phone is unlocked as I was running Mighty but decided to return to stock (6.1).
Note: my SIM is not unlocked. If I understand correctly, the SIM needs to be unlocked to be able to install a radio from a different carrier, like Sprint.
[As a side note: I think these forums use the term "radio" a little too loosely because the program to unlock the phone to be able to flash unsigned ROMs is also called a "radio" unlocker.]
Back on topic: I flashed my phone with and unlocked radio 2.23.00WU and the result was similar to what happened to your phone: it did not turn on, orange light was on.
I was able to flash stock ROM back onto the phone using the USB cord and the phone is back to normal. Even though it was basically non-responsive except for the orange light.
My phone is in working order after the wrong radio incident.
I hope this helps.

If you believe that you're obviously flat out lying when you make the claim of having worked for a carrier for three years, because no one who worked for a wireless carrier could possibly be this ignorant about how GSM works. It's either that or you're purposely posting false information in a lame attempt to screw with the newbies on this site.
The Sprint TP2 hardware supports all four GSM frequencies - 850, 900, 1800, 1900. You can pull up any spec sheet on the model to see that. This isn't exactly hidden information.
Sprint disables the US frequencies in firmware.
If you are security unlocked you can flash one of the two patched radios in the sticky thread in this forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578659
Then you toss an active SIM card into the phone and turn it on while in the US. Set it to GSM mode and bam, you're on a US tower.
Your claim is the equivalent of running around screaming "The sky is GREEN because I say it is! The sky can't be blue. That's false!"

The phone needs to be security unlocked to flash a different radio. If it is not security unlocked a unsigned radio will cause the boot sequence to fail. Flashing a carrier provided radio will restore the phone to service.
Security Unlocking means setting the phone to SuperCID. It is different than SIM unlocking.
SIM unlocking allows you to use different SIM cards. It does not allow you to flash unsigned radios.
The Olinex unlocker will both security unlock you (SuperCID) and SIM unlock you (if needed).
if device was security unlocked and is detected by pc, most likely it can be recovered by mtty. unlike my case where device was not sec unlocked but its detected by mtty using usb or serial. bad news is it would be very hard to recover, im doing some jtag research first, at least i found the pins but no pinout.

thats for a radio not rom. find the cdma rom that allows you to use a gsm sim. you cant use the cdma rom over att network...and that link you posted, there are no success stories in it, only complaints. you have no idea what you are talking about. you sit there posting false statements and trying to sound smart with your handy thesaurus. stop posting false statements lame.

[Q] Help! No Service / Can't search for networks!

Oh boy. I've done something ..interesting.. to my new nexus s. Could you guys help me?
Okay, So I've been running miui for about a month now, and today I decided I will try the oxygen rom, along with a new radio (K3B). I flashed the radio over miui and all was fine.
Next I wiped and installed oxygen. No service. I couldn't even view available networks. I had a play around with the service menu (*#*#4636#*#*) and changed regions etc, but no luck.
The next thing I did was to try and revert to stock, by following the unlockrs guide (http://theunlockr.com/2011/01/20/how-to-unroot-the-nexus-s/). This seemed strange to me, as it was only a nandroid backup. Now I'm on 'stock' with no cell radio and a small wifi only tablet.
So, my real question is, can I fastboot or ODIN back to complete stock (radio, system, recovery, etc) or are there any other fixes for this problem?
Thanks! I'm desperate :S
Which Nexus S you got? Which ROMs you flashed exactly? Which radio did you flash, never heared of KB3b?
I'd assume you have a i9020T (since you used the GRH78 nandroid backup)? Then you could use the ROM in my sig to flash back to stock.
However, I never flash any nandroid backup that isn't my own, especially if they are crossing release numbers, eg 2.3.5 to 2.3.3.
I have the i9020T, flahsed the XXKB3 Radio (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884).
I don't think flashing back to stock helps too much
Go here and get yourself a flashable full ROM for the i9020t, it will include a fitting radio (and a stock recovery). Remember to wipe everything before installing the ROM via cwm recovery. I'd also format stuff in "Mount and storage" (except sdcard for obvious reasons ).
Tried that. No success. I also used ODIN to revert to stock again. No success. Tried all the radios available for i9020t, none of them work.
My IMEI is intact still, my baseband /should/ be working, I really don't see anything more I can do except assume its a hardware issue. I'll give samsung a call now and see what I can do. Thanks for your help.
Maybe your carrier banned your IMEI for w/e reason.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I've tried multiple sim cards, and even if my carrier did block me (why would they do that?) I would still be able to at least view other network operators (and mine) in the Mobile networks menu.
Well multiple sim cards NOT working in your device could mean your IMEI is banned. Carriers block IMEIs for several reasons, stolen phones, contract abuse, carrier crossing, unpaid bills, etc etc.
Contact them and ask. If they didn't block anything you're still one step closer to solving the problem, next step exchange the SIM card, final step would be to contact Samsung and have them check for faulty hardware.
I'm starting to think thats the case.. My original sim card is dead and won't work in other phones now.
What I really don't understand is why they would blacklist me. I've been with my carrier for two years, since they started up. I'm a prepaid customer, so no unpaid bills. My phone is brand new, purchased it at Best Buy in the US four weeks ago
Maybe they were mistaken? I'll call them later in the day.
Ugh. I talked to my service provider, they said they couldn't do anything and were very unsure. They handed me over to samsung, who were unbelievably unhelpful and told me to turn my phone off and on, and that they couldn't do anything more. Just sent an email to my service provider hoping I get someone more 'higher up' who can deal with it.

[Q] Strange issue with 4G, doesn't appear to be IMEI issue.

Hey guys.
I just got my i535 Galaxy S III a few days back, and decided to root it. Paranoia wasn't for me, so I tried CM10. Somewhere along the lines of that, my 4G stops workings. Luckily, I already backed up my IMEI.
I've been trying for a few hours to fix it. I already used the following methods of "fix":
Restoring backup from CWM
Going back to (rooted) stock,
Changing my Mobile Networks settings around,
Phone Info (Couldn't honestly find out what to edit in there, or if anything WAS editable),
restoing IMEI
From what I can see, I have my IMEI, MEID, and phone status reads: "Normal". Yet, when I look at my bars, I get 3 of 3G, instead of my usual (and what my other galaxy S III devices are running currently.)
Samsung's firmware mirror site is down at the moment, so I haven't tried that last resort before returning to Verizon, but do you guys have any thoughts?
Thanks
I have a similar issue - except my phone does not recognize the verizon network. I was rooted with CM9. i've since replaced the SIM and flashed to factory rom. I am seeing my IMEI number, so I don't think that's an issue (right?).
I took it to the verizon store and they want to trade it in, which i am fine with
My biggest concern is removing any trace of root.
I had the same issue when going into cm9, got a new sim yesterday and I got my 4G back.
I'm in the same boat. Just gonna get a new sim card and hope that fixes the issue

AIO Wireless [RESOLVED]

Well my contract ended today, so I decided to jump ship to AIO Wireless... Since T-Mobile is getting rid of their grandfathered plans and making people upgrade, I decided to leave, and join the Pre-Paid community :victory: -- Cant wait until the Nexus 5 drops haha..
I'm SuperCID'd sim unlocked (did it last night), rooted (been rooted for years, the sensation is not my first rodeo), and all that Jazz...
Anyways.. I did everything that I was supposed to get everything activated and working.. typed in the new APN settings and got my data working and all..
My problem is that i do not get connected to 3g or 4g... I called CS and they said that everything looks fine.. (they dunno whats going on).. go figure.
I have 2g. Its pissing me off...
Just wondering if anybody else made the switch and are having/had similar problems??
Thanks
EDIT: Well i called back hoping to get another person to talk to.. and that somebody told me that since my phone is from T-Mobile, I wont be allowed to use their 4g.. --- My question is now this -- Since my phone is unlocked, wouldnt i now be able to use AT&T's network?? Or is the phone itself still required to use TMO's frequency? I'm confused.
EDIT 2: Did more research around xda and found that i could change the modem to att's frequency bands.. I flashed the modems via terminal emulator and even put in canadian radios.. well, both didnt work. when i flashed the modems, they didnt change the bands.. I would need the international sensation that uses att bands for att to work (thats why i flashed the canadian radio just to see if that would work) This is probably why we dont hear anything about our tmo sensations getting used on other carriers because no one has successfully changed the modem.. We cant change the bands that our phone comes with.. Damn.
Well, I guess i have to live with 2g for a week or so until the nexus 5 drops.. Then i can just slap my sim card in there and experience LTE ) -- but in the mean time, ill be using wifi.

[Q] Revert back to verizon from tmobile

Purchased an HTC M8 from a friend that seems like was flashed to T-mobile. I tried everything and various roms (revolution, viper, bonestock) and the stock vzw RUU to get the phone back to verizon. The APN file is still showing all t-mobile files in it.
Also if I go into settings>Network preference: It shows all european networks ie: vodafone UK ,Claro dom,JP DOCOMO, all GSM/UMTS.
I called verizon to verify the IMEI and sim and they both checked out to be verizon, so I know its a verizon phone. Has the VZW logo on the back also.
I cannot make calls or get any internet connection with it. Tried changing all of the network settings, replaced the sim card and so far no go. Can anyone point me in the right direction for some help.I have searching and tried various procedures for the past 2 days without any luck.
Strange thing is the 4G icon is there and when i try to connect to the internet the bars below it become active but I always get the same message: Cannot connect to the internet.
The phone is rooted, TWRP, S-off and CID 11111111 also.
Thanks for any help !

Check your IMEI number, settings>about>status http://swappa.com/esn use this site to see if its bad or not. If it is, the phone was probably reported stolen or the person who bought it didn't pay the monthly amount for the phone, so Verizon would have blacklisted it
I called verizon and first verified that is was indeed a verizon phone which it is and it is ok to be activated. I took it to the store an they tried a new sim card but it did not work. No phone calls or data
No matter what RUU or rom i tried flashing when I check the apns-conf.xml file in System>etc it always ends up having T-mobile settings in there.
I have it rooted, S-off, SuperCID11111111, and nothing has worked so far. Very frustrated as I have been working on it going on 3 days. But not all is lost. I have have learned a lot trying to get it fixed. I just might end up sending it in to HTCand have them fix it. Sure would suck to have a $400 paper weight
Thanks for the reply..
At boot time, Android determines the correct network configuration based on the MCC and MNC from the SIM card and automatically configure all network settings.
I have a verizon HTC One M8 (had my imei verified at a verizon store and esn was clean) with a new sim card and yet all of the files in my system>etc>apns-config.xml file are showing T-mobile.
Also in settings>Network Preference>all of the carriers are coming up vodafone, CLARO DOM, JP DOCOMO Swisscom and they are all GSM/UMTS.
Does anyone know why its not loading the proper files from my sims MCC and MNC ? This has been driving me crazy for the past 3 days trying to figure this out.
I flashed stock RUU and am s-off, unlocked, Super CID 11111111. Have no idea what is causing this.Any help or pointing me in the right direction would be GREATLY appreciated.
Well, Sent it in for repair. Told the Customer rep the phone was roooted, Rom'ed, CID'ed and that I never got to activate it.
So just waiting to see what happens and will post when I find out the verdict.
BTW, they could tell when I gave them the IMEI the day that the phone was rooted. Is that possible ? Sure came as a surprise to me. Gave the lady the IMEI # and after about 1 minute she came back on and told me the phone was rooted on May 1st. I have no idea if that is true because I have only had the phone for 1 week now.
