Help please: Challenge to solve bricked magic problem - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

My Voda Magic stuck in RUU screen. I can see my device through fastboot devices command however I'm not able to see it through ''adb devices'' command.
Since ADB is not working I can not use the recovery screen either. All the RUU roms I've tried (I think I've tried all the available RUU Roms) stuck in unzipping system files (usually at %81).
I've followed all the tutorials on the site but most of them are using adb commands and I'm not able to use ADB Shell anymore. I've downloaded latest SDK and drivers but still no solution. By the way I'm using Windows 7.
I'm ready to donate (50 USD) the friend who may solve this problem.
Thanks in advanced to all people interested in my problem, and sorry for my English.
I see on the RUU screen the following details;
SAPPHIRE PVT32A SHIP S-ON H (The original was 32B but somehow it turned in to 32A)
HBOOT-1.76.0008 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10

Dude, it is very important to know what's your Magic. 32A or 32B
And it's imposible to change 32A to 32B (32B to 32A) with programm, cause it's version of motherboard
If your Magic is exactly 32A, you must:
- test fastboot mode (Turn off, turn on by pressing Back + Power)
- test command "fastboot devices" in fastboot mode
- create goldcard (if you want install other ROM)
- run this RUU Update with goldcard inside and in fastboot-mode if you want get root
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5526163&postcount=1
And another question. Do you use original cable?

yep, if you get fastboot then you're not bricked. The RUU as mentioned will get you back to a good point. It does make your heart stop when that happens...

My Magic is definately a 32B but it turned in to 32A after sappimg upload. I'm not able to use any of the button combination. It only opens RUU page and thats all. Fastboot devices on command promt shows my serial number. But if I give the adb devices command it can not detect my phone.

With that SPL your only chance is the RUU mentioned above.
Next time verify that the procedure you are about to use is for the 32B Magic.

Another strange thing is that hboot is changing everytime I use a different RUU Rom. Like 1.76.0009-0007-0010 etc.

I don't think that you have 32B in the past! It's ver5sion of motherboard and it can not be changed by sappimg r anything else. Only techcenter can change motherboard!

You think he is lying?

The Vodaphone Magics were 32Bs were they not?
I didn't realize Vodaphone had a 32A model too. ?

Your right. All the Vodaphone Magics are 32B. But the stupid me have been able to turn it in to 32A.

All? Hey, what's about Portugal, Greece, Romania, Czech magics? They are vodafone, but they are 32A.

Did you run RUU, what i posted in the past?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6494202&postcount=2
Create goldcard
Then run RUU

Yes. I've tried that already. stuck at %81 system unzipping.

Of course let's try every key we can, but don't you think the carrier would have restricted it to their signing key only?
Possibly another method that requires UID system that we could do on a terminal app?
Code:
echo 'boot-recovery' >/cache/recovery/command
echo '--update_package=SDCARD:update.zip' >> /cache/recovery/command
dumb question. Since everything on the mytouch is basically the same as the G1 (with the exception of the ROM), could we fool the NBH that was released for the G1 into thinking it's a myTouch Rom and use it to downgrade, gain root, then upgrade? I'll fully admit that it seems a little far fetched, but figured I'd ask.

no because then the nbh would fail the sig check
The Honorable Mr. Haykuro様 suggested that it should be possible to take an officially released signed-by-HTC NBH containing a hackable SPL, copy it to SD card using a card reader, and booting the phone while holding down the volume-down key. This should flash the SPL with one that allows fastboot.

pushing it would require root, right?
no news update on this thread yet :-( i'm ready to write off this phone. practically nothing without the google suites of app and market app.
Ready to Donate $50 to the guy who roots. Otherwise the phone is useless. Help Please!!!
me too in the waiting ...
After purchasing htc magic in india, I too figured out that its SPL is the unfortunate one : HBOOT-1.33.0010 (SAPP10000) : Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H : CPLD-12.
Though some options are available to install applications from:
1. http://slideme.org/applications
2. http://andappstore.com/AndroidApplications/apps/!index
3. http://www.openmarket.co.za/
But above are in no way comparable to Google apps,Market place.
Eagerly waiting for this SPL to be cracked .
count me in. ready to donate to anyone who could help bring life to this phone. btw, i will never buy an htc until i've visited xda-developers.

What SPL should I choose to replace the 1.33.0007 SPL?

Hello to all,
I have already started a thread about this topic, but it was on the wrong section( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4663229 ), I apologize to all users and moderators.
Here goes:
I have a 32B HTC Magic from Vodafone Spain with a 1.33.0007 SPL. I have been looking arround for a few for info about this SPL and it seems to have small amout of info about it.
I guess this is a perfect SPL, but its not listed in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548218
This SPL does not allow to flash it using the fastboot method, a "remote: not allow" error, making it more difficult to make some hacking, such as changing the splash screen.
Even though, I was able to change the recovery image and flash some roms using the "one click method" with no problems.
Now, I am thinking of changing this SPL using the recovery image that I already have installed, its the recovery-RAv1.2.1G, so I can use the fastboot method to make some hacking, such as change the damn splash screen.
The problem is that there are a few SPLs, and I don't know which one is the most appropriate to my phone and has less chances of brick the phone.
Here are some more details of the phone:
SAPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0007 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.19.26I
Using the "recovery-RAv1.2.1G" recovery image and the "Smartphone France ROM by spfrance - Based on HTC Magic, dedicated for European users" rom.
On the other thread, the user robotician suggested to use the 'Engineering SPL 1.33.2005', is this SPL safe on my phone. Has anyone with a phone like mine flashed this SPL?
Can any one give me a help here?
1.33.2005 use it
Thanks, I guess I will use the 1.33.2005
I have some USB problems, since I can't connect to the PC to use ADB or mass storage device. Already tried Windows and Linux with no luck.
Could a SPL install solve the problem?
I locked your FIRST thread and left a message on what you should do.
You actually start a second thread???
Open one more thread in the wrong section and you will be taking a 5-day vacation to Bannville.

thank you in advance
It Seems as if your going to need your Magic Original RUU (Vodafone), place it on your sd card shut off your phone and reboot holding volume down and power button to enter fastboot and reflash the original RUU to your phone. Hopefully you can enter fast boot, and hopefully you can find the Magic Original RUU (Vodafone) somewhere on xda or somewhere on the internet. Or maybe you just need the Magic Original RUU (Vodafone) and HTC Sync to get the job done. hope this helps, but this is what I would do next.

if adb device shows the serial number, you should be fine. just go into recovery and flash another ROM
I can not do adb devices. I "devices not found". I so block on "RUU USB"

Try call to techsupport.
This is a very big problem, when you flashed 32A-related SPL to your 32B-device. Cause 32B-devices don't have any RUU-updates.
i try it today
See if you can flash the T-Mobile MyTouch3G .NBH to your device over fastboot. If you can do that, then try and go back the long way to root that rom and get rid of the perfect SPL it will flash.
Its a long road to travel, but it will get you back a usable device.

Aid for htc magic locked

I have a Case Study with a HTC locked on Vodafone Magic 'logo "HTC magic" after following some of his guides on xdata Amon_Re.
But I think first of all have to give precise figures in relation to the terminal because you can understand the full problem.
Original data from fastboot mode:
HTC Vodafone magic
sapphire PVT 32B ship on G s -
HDBOOT 1.33.007 (Sapp 10000)
CPLD-10 radio 2.22.19.261
As we understand it was a perfect therefore nothing spl root,
Then I followed the guide on Ciato Amon_Re to obtain root permissions thing perfectly successful
result:
sapphire pvt 32B ship off-s-H
HDDBOOT 1.33.2010 (Sapp 10000)
CPLD-10
Radio 3.22.20.17
At this point I installed a terminal suitable for the recovery and so far so good,
but Tentet to install a cyanogen always following the various guides did not get to nothing more than the terminal remained stuck on HTC logo magic, then I decided to change spl convinced to do the right thing and always referring to the collection of Amon_Re I made and installed the Engineering SPL 1.33.2004 followed his guide, since the terminal is stuck on HTC logo magic me access without in any way they fastboot ne ne adb recovery.
Now I wonder what's wrong and you can retrieve the terminal and somehow I have to give up and consider brickkato the terminal.
Thanks to all who know me a useful tip to retrieve the terminal in advance, I also notice that I have already tried all possible ways but with negative results, therefore, only those in genuine familiarity with these terminals may help or advice for the best.
In whatever way each council will be appreciated.
While waiting I extend best wishes and thanks to everyone.

Radio is wrong.... Unknown means you have wrong SPL. You didnt install the G, not H recovery.
Please, you guys haver got to start reading instructions rather then thinking you know what your doing and jumping ahead.
Go back and re read the instructions. But, I suggest not because you will probably brick with radio. Plus, where are you guys finding this vodaphone rom your using to downgrade... because its not the right one
I found the sapping.zip on amon thread on how to root and un root ur mytouch! What can i do???? It is fixible???
Also i forgot to mention the hboot is 1.33.009 (sapp 31000)
the 3.22 radio should be right for a 32A I believe... but im confused. You said your phone is 32A (well thats what the info displays) but I think it should be a 32b... SO In conclusion! I believe you have the wrong spl, and your recovery doesn't work cause you were probably using the 32B recovery in the past. So you need to flash the H recovery and if you can get into recovery, awesome. But I think you may need to flash spl, and I would use the 1.33.0010 ENG SPL (double check if this is compatible with your phone)
If this works out, I'd totally accept the $25! Please! hahaha and next time, post in the right section
k re-read your post several times. Since you used some Sappimg, your phone probably isn't even rooted (or is it?). Could you even get into recovery before? AND Crap, you totally need an ENG SPL before you can even flash anything. SOOO You'll PROBABLY (I think you do) need a goldcard and put the correct sappimg on it and go into hardboot (or fastboot if you know what ur doing) holding vol down and power.
This is the wired thing ppl said tha usa tmobile mytouch 3g are 32b cus my first one was a 32b but this one is a 32a its not rooted i was trying to rooted and wen i use the goldcard with the sappimg zip to bring it back to cupcake 1.5 thats what it happen i been seaching for almost a month and i cant find the corect sappimg nbh or zip for my phone can some one give me the link for the corect one please here is the total info of my phone again
usa tmobile my touch 32g black
sapphire unknown 32a ship s on h (before was s on g the sappimg change it)

Does your phone have a 3,5mm audio jack?
yes it dos it have the 3.5 audio jack on top
Congrats, you're the proud owner of a new type of Magic, the 32A Mytouch 1.2/Fender. None of the existing roms are compatible with it, as the driver sources are not available. Try making a goldcard and flashing an engineering SPL and then flashing the original rom from fastboot. Have fun
can u give me thouse links please? so i cant download them and try to do it
I don't know exactly where to find them, just look around and use the search button too, it doesn't bite. Look for goldcard and fastboot: remote not allowed.
can't post link, but try theunlockr.com and search for fender section.
