Hello,
Can anyone let me know if the HTC Magic from Rogers in Canada is able to be rooted.
Tks,
Matt
OMG ive been trying for ages pls help......
There are about 4 or 5 threads on this already.
Currently, the Hero of the Android World Haykuro is hard at work trying to root the Rogers Magic, which is close enough to the Dream so that it should be a similar method. There seems to be a stumbling block with the boot.img and radio (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523873). You can follow his progress on Twitter at http://twitter.com/haykuro
So, in short, not yet.
Update
thanks for the update.
i thought he got the dream and not the magic?
From what I've heard they are similar enough that once one is figured out, the same method can be modified to work with the other.
ps how does the daldroid rom work whilst not the hero....???
The Rogers phones have different radio hardware among other things, and don't work with other kernels just yet.
daldroid rom works on the rogers magic and it gives you adb shell root.... NO MORE GAY ROGERS ICONS.
sorry about that got exicted anyway just flashed mine n stuff, everything seems to be fine
got superhero to work check instructions!!!
But do you have root?
Hello, I have a Telus version of the HTC Hero and I have root my phone. Once every week, an update information puts up on my phone and I click download. When I try installing it, it rebuts but is not able to install the update.
Do I have to unroot my phone to install the update? If it is the case, where can I find the official 1.5 firmware from Telus?
I do know that the update is to prepare the phone for the 2.1 firmware.
Thank you for understanding my case.
Should I root my phone first before upgrading to 2.2 or upgrade first then root?
If you're talking about the Over The Air (OTA) update that was announced, you should only upgrade with that if you don't want to root or customize anymore. For the moment, that OTA will take away root if you have it and you won't be able to get it back (for now).
If you're talking about upgrading to 2.2 using one of the ROMs posted here on XDA, then you need to root your phone in order to have the option to flash one of those onto your Aria.

Thanks that was very helpful! I'm going to root first them upgrade with one of the 2.2 ROMs here. I didn't know an OTA 2.2 update was out for the Aria already.
Well, it is and it isn't... it's available for non-branded Arias. AT&T hasn't released their version of the 2.2 update for the Aria, but when they do it will break your root access if you install it. At least temporarily. There's really no reason to use the official updates unless you need to return your Aria for some reason. Otherwise, you'll have more features using the custom ROMs here.
With the 2.2 upgrade for the Aria, were there any advancements on Adobe Flash?

No since this is an HTC Sense ROM, it still uses HTC Flash Lite just like the original ROM did. The Aria processor is not currently supported by Adobe Flash 10.x.
ok so I got a question. I have an ATT aria can I get the HTC 2.2 rom on my phone and then root my phone?
No, at the moment you can't. If you install the HTC OTA update you will lose root and be unable to get it back until one of the devs figures it out again. There are, however, plenty of Froyo ROMs to choose from, so you really don't need the HTC update to get 2.2.
Edit: Nevermind, looks like I spoke too soon. See this thread:

Thanks I have the Liberated rom on my phone right now. I'm just looking for a 2.2 Froyo that has the full bluetooth dialer support.

What's the best ROM out there right now? Which one would you recommend?

Currently, the two Froyo (Android 2.2) contenders for the Aria are CyanogenMod 6.1 and Liberated FR008.
Cyanogen offers a more unedited Android product with access to all sorts of settings and customization options. Liberated is more of a stock HTC Sense version of Android. Both ROMs are pretty much the creation of XDA member Attn1 who spends a ton of time developing for the Aria and here on the boards answerings questions.
The cool thing is that once you have rooted your Aria and installed Clockwork Mod Recovery, you can make a Nandroid back-up which will save your current setup along with all of your settings so that you can freely install these ROMs knowing that you can always safely return to your back-up if you don't like it. It's very... liberating!
I pulled this from HTC Sprint Hero MR 2.27.651.6.exe. I believe that you just need to rename it to HERCIMG.zip and then boot into HBOOT via VOL-DN and PWR.
android.turnertechrepair.info/rom.zip
I may be wrong on the numbers. but the RUU Ver I stated was right. I'm a noob in this area. But I flashed that to my phone and those are the numbers I saw.
can you extract the stock recovery for me and zip it in a HERCIMG.zip and post it? I would be very appreciative
is this a new update thats coming soon?

okay just to let u know theres about 4 of these floating around here

This is a maintenance release for our Hero's back in November of 2010 and is 2.1
no this isnt new sprint hasnt sent an official update sense November this is the ruu they sent out back in april im pretty sure
http://www.talkandroid.com/21754-sprint-hero-maintenance-release-2-32-651-2-now-available/
This was the update that came with the Sprint Zone application. This is what I had installed prior to rooting back in December 2010.
OK, I appreciate all of the feed back. This is a file I pulled from the most recent ruu on the sprint site. It is definitely 2.1. I will get the correct numbers for you all tomorrow. I used a similar file to put my hero to stock as I run linux and couldn't RUU. This one is a little more recent than the one that was previously posted on this forum.
Hello all!
I'm new, so I dont know if I'm doing this correct with opening a new thread!
If so, please tell, and tell me how to do it correctly!
My question is, How the hell do you downgrade the htc desire with 2.3.3 android on it (dev update) to 2.2 standard? It is already S-Off and I dont have any clue what to do now, been working whole evening on it, can't get it right.
Please help?
I guess the easiest way is to run RUU. It will completely reflash the device to the version you want.
Not sure if it will keep the S-OFF though...
