Hit the THANKS button, if you use this ROM!

I will complete this thread at a later time, but for the next month I'll have to study a lot

, so maybe no time for uploading and completing thread.

You can disable the CRT animation. You go to Settings->Display->You turn off the Screen off animation.

I haven't found any bugs yet, everything works very smooth and even YouTube works! :good:

I think this is the best ROM for our "legacy" device

Thank you! Didn't know you could manually enable/disable it.

i really want to try this rom in my old htc magic!
I would like to know wich recovery do you use and recommend to flash your rom.
another question is the funcionability of the apps with this rom
thank you for all your work for "our" device.

I think you can only flash it with CWM recovery.

All apps that work on GB, will work in ICS.
But the Play Store will show a lot more apps, but a lot of them will force close when you try to open them.
But in general, everything should be smoother.

ok. This rom is good. But it is slow when download from playstore. Thanks!

shaooas · Dec 24, 2012

Thanks for CM9, i was looking for some stable rom

I will try this ROM and will let u know my findings

Yanguang · Dec 24, 2012

Thank you for porting this over. I have neglected my HTC Magic for quite some time now, finally got it out, dusted it and went through the flashing bits for this. Stable and much smoother than I expected to have on a (relatively) dated device. Are the processor options under 'Performance' settings disabled or is it meant to be on 'ondemand' all the time?

You can't change any options in Performance. I'll see if I can change that, because now, if the displayed CPU speeds are right, the CPU is constantly running on 710 Mhz when you used it.

Default cpu frequence 710MHz is not stable enough to bootup my phone, could you please lower down to 650MHz please?

Did you try to flash it? My phone doesn't run on 710 either, but it does boot.

jejer · Dec 27, 2012

Yes, I flashed it. During boot, cat /proc/cpuinfo get 710MHz and boot failed. After set it to 620MHz, it bootup success.
Your ROM works great, thanks!

Ok, thanks! I'll set it to a lower speed in next version.

I would really advise against overclocking by default. The majority of these devices can overclock to acceptable speeds, but others can't do much at all. My mytouch 3g, for example, would freeze at anything above 595mhz, and it was most stable at 537 or below. So even with that lower overclock you decided on, I still wouldn't be able to use this without modifying the rom.

There are plenty of ways to make this recommended, but optional. You could put an oc script in a separate zip to flash. Or you could start using the fancy Aroma installer. Ezterry's yesno binary is really easy to implement.

I didn't know the cpu was running at a higher speed. I thought it was a bug in performance section, who was showing the wrong speed, since my HTC Magic normally freezes at 710 Mhz.

It's been years since I last flashed a MyTouch3G (32B)... Just got back one that I'd gifted away two years ago, it decided not to boot around Christmas and I brought it home to wipe/reflash.

Glad to see work still being done on this old device! It's ahead of my G2X in Roms.. That's effin sad.

Now if I can just remember how you flash a kernel on this thing....

EDIT:

I'm a bit confused about the kernel.... the thread linked doesn't actually seem to be any specific kernel??? More "how to flash a kernel safely" and hboot/radio files. I already have the required hboot/radio! So which kernel do I use??

EDIT 2:

N/m.... can't be assed to sit here all night trying to figure out which kernel to use on an antique phone. Went with Gingerbread instead.

Edited post (correction below)

Sorry for the wrong info on flashing your 32B device, I did not notice that your device was not a 32A sapphire but the 32B instead!

I think the answer you're looking for is here:

[ROM][WIP] United ICS - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1647493

"kernel -
ezterry's kernel + ics patches and some performance tweaks (enabled 710mhz overclock and other things) http://www.mediafire.com/?py8asp6ab109dyl
ezterry's ezgb 1.5.2 http://sandbox.devnull.name/android/ezgb-kernel/ezgb-2636-v1.5.2_S.zip "

You have to take a working 32B kernel, preferably a flashable zip. The link in the opening post isn't directing to a kernel, but search for it in the G1 section and you will find a lot kernels.
ICS is much faster, so I would suggest you try it.

Baldi_SOS · Dec 29, 2012

Can you point me into the right direction? My dad has an old Magic 32B with Radio 27.08. What Kernel should i use? Or what ICS Version are you talking about?
Thanks in advance.
