I have a question, what would it be clarified.
I have a HTC Magic 32A, with radio 6.35.XXXX, hboot-1.76.2007. I am using the recovery "Magic32A-RA-recovery-v1.6.2-6:35".
The question is, can I use the recovery "recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H.img"??
Thanks.

Magics with SPL 1.76.x should use the Hero 1.7.1
Says so in the OP.

ferrari_news, you should probably try that.
mash_ns, check your SPL version?

But there says "Only flash recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img if you have a 32A Sapphire with 6.35.x.x radio and 1.76.x SPL, recovery-RA-hero-v1.7.0.1.img will NOT boot! I'll create a new Sapphire version soon."
Thanks.

Shall we use the install method for the Hero or shall we only download the Hero img and use the Magic 32A install. I am asking this because the install/flashing methods are different.

Can anyone answer this question?

I would imagine you'd use the method for the magic. The worst that happens is that you use the other method.

You could also probably do it with Droid Explorer. Which would save the hassle of any typos. I just used it last night to flash a new recovery on my wifes cliq. (Sorry, I'm at work and don't have the link in front of me. It's here on XDA tho.)

OK I'm a little confused on the instructions here. I accessed the revision information screen and it said:
Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.76-0009 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-6.35.08.29

In the beginning it said if I had 1.76 SPL I should use the Hero one. Does that mean I should use the SPL and OS for the Hero version? Sorry for maybe asking a stupid question but I want to be sure since I don't want to brick it since I'm cracking it for a friend.

EDIT: Saw TheJeeks question now and reply. Though I don't rely want to install it just unlock it so you can use a sim card from another provider.

    This is a custom recovery based on Cyanogen's recovery source with a lot of things added by me. The purpose of this recovery is to avoid using adb by accessing all features directly from the menu.

    All source code is available at github.

    This recovery if for the HTC Magic/MT3G only, if you have an :
    - HTC Dream/G1 you should go here.
    - HTC Hero you should go here.
    - HTC Sprint Hero you should go here.
    - HTC Eris you should go here.
    - HTC Tattoo you should go here.
    - HTC Nexus One you should go here.

    Important notes
    • 32A users with SPL 1.76.x should flash the Hero version! (Will be updated to v1.7.0 soon!!)
    • Always check recovery.log before posting your issues!
      You can do this by doing :
      • "cat /tmp/recovery.log" OR "cat /cache/recovery/log" right after you had the issue.
      • Use the "move log to sd" option in the "others" menu right after you had the issue. This will move the log to /sdcard/recovery.log so you can easily open it with a text editor.

    Features

    Use the trackball (up+down) to navigate through the menu, press the trackball to select items.
    You can also use the volume keys (vol-up + vol-down) to navigate, and the CALL-ANSWER key to select items (in case your trackball is broken).

    • full ADB access in recovery mode
    • Busybox v1.15.3
    • HW-Key navigation (volume keys + CALL-ANSWER) option

    Install

    • There are several ways to install a custom recovery, choose the one that suits you most (I probably forgot a few).
    • You don't need to enter "mount -a" if your partitions are already mounted.
    • Use the H/G version if your Magic is HTC branded (PVT 32A board)/Google branded (PVT 32B board).

    via fastboot :
    • Requires engineerings SPL!
    Code:
    Copy recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img to a location where fastboot can find it.
    Boot your G1 into fastboot mode (boot while holding BACK)
    Connect your G1 via usb to your pc/mac/...
    fastboot devices (to make sure that fastboot "sees" your device)
    fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img

    via adb :
    • Requires a custom recovery (with test-keys) like Cyanogen's v1.4 or my previous recovery
    • Do NOT follow these steps from a terminal application on the phone, make sure that you've booted into a custom recovery first!!!
    Code:
    Copy recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img to the root of your sdcard
    Boot into your current custom recovery (boot while holding HOME)
    Connect your G1 via usb to your pc/mac/...
    adb shell
    #mount -a (this can give back an error if you don't have an ext partition, don't worry about it and just proceed)
    #flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img

    via terminal application installed on the phone :
    • Requires root
      [*]DO NOT use this method with CM5.0.7, there are currently some memory issues while flashing, use the above methods (preferably the fastboot method) instead until the issue is fixed in CM5.0.7!
    Code:
    Copy recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img to the root of your sdcard
    start the terminal app
    #flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img



    Download

    • ALWAYS check the md5sum to make sure the zip isn't corrupted.
    • Click on the Mirror-link if you don't like rapidshare
    • Use the H/G version if your Magic is HTC branded (PVT 32A board)/Google branded (PVT 32B board).


    Change-log :

    v1.7.0
    Code:
    - Fixed some minor bugs
    - Recovery and scripts use /sd-ext instead of /system/sd as mountpoint to support the new apps2sd method (implemented mostly by Chris Soyars)
    - Added an option to backup/restore Google proprietary Android system files (backuptool.sh written by Cyanogen)
    - Removed "move apps2sd"-option as it's not needed anymore with the new apps2sd method
    - Updated BART to v1.3.1 (updated by Dumfuq to support /sd-ext)
    - Added a wipe cache only option
    - Nandroid now backups/restores /cache again by default
    - Dalvik-cache wipes /cache/dalvik-cache now
    - Removed SDCARD: prefix in output when chosing zip to flash
    - Added Cyan version (There's no difference with the normal version, only the wallpaper and textcolor changed)

    v1.6.2
    Code:
    - Added power off menu item
    - New unyaffs binary patched by Koushik Dutta and Packetlss to fix the "losing root"-issue and incorrect file-time after a Nandroid restore
    - New dump_image binary (by Brainaid) patched by Packetlss to fix the "bad blocks"- Nandroid restore issue.
    [COLOR="Red"][B](This will not fix old corrupted Nandroid backups! Please make new backups!!)[/B][/COLOR]
    - New mkyaffs2image binary
    - New flash_image binary
    - Updated busybox to v1.5.3
    - Nandroid menu options will NOT backup or restore recovery, cache, misc, splash1+2 (to avoid issues)
    - Fixed wipe option not wiping when ext was not present
    - Created carebear versions after the idea of packetlss
    - Switched the Nexus logo to a Green Carebear with Nexus One logo (Thanks Montalbert!)

    Hello! Anyone who wants to get this recovery in 2022(and beyond) go here: 1pwn.ixmoe.com/websites/android.vslinux.net/downloads/recoveries/index.html
    There are H and G versions, as well as many interesting (e.g. CyanogenMod 6.1.1 for HTC Desire A8181)
