[Q] Needing to get froyo on my HTC Magic

---

So I downloaded Clockwork Mod onto my phone and I have root access (thanks to AndRoot) -- so I've been able to flash the ClockworkMod recovery or the RA recovery onto my phone.

However it won't let me boot into the recovery mode (HOME+POWER).

The odd time I can boot into the Clockwork recovery, but as soon as a screen comes up it immediately reboots and then it won't let me boot up.

With RA recovery it wont' get me into anything....


Any suggestions? It's an HTC Magic (Rogers), so it's a 32A phone (as far as I know) and it's really a pain living with just 2.1.

When flashing RA recovery, are you using H? G is for 32B.

yup it was like 1.70h or whatever... made sure of that
but it would never boot into recovery mode...

Dwnload rom manager from market. The app has an option to reboot into recovery. I haven't tried it personally but hope it helps.

i've tried rebooting into the mode that way... still when it reboots and just as i see something it reboots automatically again... and then it'll just come up with that warning screen and i'll have to pull the battery
