http://www.4shared.com/file/115470968/23ed1157/v12-cime-signed.html
This version (v1.2[c]) of rom is suitable for users who need to input Chinese on magic using methods other than handwriting.
After flashing this rom, be sure to install HTC_CIME.apk manually.
All the Chinese input methods, including Zhuyin and Pinyin, work on this rom!! Hooray!!
However, all the ringtones, except Innovation.mp3, have been removed to squeeze out some space for these lib files.
You have to push your favorite ringtone by yourself.

********7/6 Hami Rooting (Rooting OEM TW Cupcake ROM)***********
Running modded Hero and ION roms on Magic is cool, but some compromises must be made, such as manual input of APN, injection of libs,...
For those already satisfied with the oem rom (TW HTC ROM with Hami boot logo), I have created a new boot.img.
This boot.img is rooted and sets the max cpu freq at 528Mhz. After flashing it, you can also get a root access at adb shell.
You can further push a modded version of su into the system to gain root access at terminal app.
Before you begin, please make sure:
(1) Your magic is running TW OEM ROM (Cupcake 1.5) with Hami boot logo
(2) SPL has been flashed
Steps are:
1. Download this package created by richyyun first. http://www.4shared.com/file/116302268/1b7cc008/richyyun-hami-rooting.html
2. Inside the zip are two files, including boot-hami-rooted-max528.img and su
3. In fastboot mode, test run the new rooted boot.img **Very important**
=> fastboot boot boot-hami-rooted-max528.img
4. If it successfully boots, you can begin to flash it
=> fastboot flash boot boot-hami-rooted-max528.img
5. Reboot and you'll get # in adb shell
6. Push modded su into the system
=> adb shell
#mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
#exit
=> adb push su /system/bin/su
=> adb shell
# cd /system/bin
# chmod 6755 su
# sync
# reboot
********7/4 New BOOT.IMG for Hero********************************
The frequency of the CPU inside magic is self-adjusted according to real-time processing demand.
However, there is a parameter in rom defining the range (max and min) of cpu frequency adjustment.
In OEM roms, the max freq is set at only 384Mhz.
In the following two versions of boot.img, the cpu freq range is redefined.
[max=528Mhz] http://www.4shared.com/file/115500341/1cec4112/boot-cpu-max528.html by richyyun
[min=max=528Mhz] http://www.4shared.com/file/115939851/44c86a93/boot-cpu-always528.html by richyyun
Note that when min=max=528Mhz, you battery doubtedly drains slightly faster!
For the moment, if you are already satisfied with the current rom and don't want to flash new roms so soon, you can flash this boot.img alone to make some changes to your magic!
1. on your pc, you can test run the new boot image first
fastboot boot boot-cpu-freq-fixed-for-32A-12.img <=be sure to test it first!
2. if it works, then make it permanent
fastboot flash boot boot-cpu-freq-fixed-for-32A-12.img
