Hi,

I have HTC Magic Vodafone UK version (32b) . A month ago I wanted to install a ROM which required a higher version of radio, and I bricked it :(

I had it repaired in a shop, but it seems that the guys put the wrong radio. This is what I get in fastboot:



Now I have 3.22 radio (which is only for Magic 32a). The problem now is that I cannot install 32b ROMs because of the radio, and 32a ROMs are also not working (or maybe I am doing sth wrong). The only ROM which is working currently for me is VOdafone 2.2.1 32a.

So, my question is: which ROMs should I be installing now - 32a or 32b?? Should I maybe go again with radio change, and go back to the old one (which is a risky process)
Thanks!

The good thing is, that you have eng spl..
So you have total control over the device,,,

You can flash anything you want..
Just flash a different radio and you should be set :0)

Hey mumilover,

Thanks for the reply. ;)
The thing is that I've already bricked it once when tried to change the radio, so now I'm afraid to do it again :D and thus trying to find some alternative :)

When I was reading about flashing radios, I remembered pretty long and complicated procedure (downgrade android, wipe, etc.) Is it with your fastboot commander that easy???

Hey, I have just given it a try, but it won't flash the radio. I get the Fastboot connection (it says "Fastboot USB" on the phone screen), but in your app it says that "PRINT OF DEVICE INFO FAILURE - PLEASE CHECK YOUR CONNECTION.
No fastboot device connected."

Any idea what the problem might be?

By the way, I have been using regular fastboot for quite some time, and it was always working flawlessly with my phone.

Hi!
Thanx God I've found the proper topic )
Unfortunately phone that seems to be 32b based was bricked today.
Hboot view looked the same as in the first post:
SAPHIRE PVT 32B ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP*****)
CPLD-10
RADIO-3.22.20.17
Jun 2 2009, 17:27:03
I adviced owner to flash 2708 radio and SPL 1.33.0013d from recovery.
After flashing of radio phone became a brick...
Hope guy will manage to unbrick it, but the question is what to do further.
Is it safety to flash radio/spl using your soft of it would be better to use fastboot method described here (I mean Revert to 32B Radio)?
And is radio 2.22.19.26I what we really need?
Which SPL should be flashed after to escape bricking?

P. S. I've tried your tool on another computer, and still can't get a connection to my HTC Magic :(((

OK, so I finally installed 2.22.19 radio, but for this ROM I need 2.22.23 and Death SPL. Is it safe to install those using your tool???

Again, thanks for your time!
