32A Wont go past boot screen

[efex]

so this is a new magic, from the operator 3 (Sweden):
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP10000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-3.22.20.17
May 8 2009,21:02:32

I tried to root it by following the 32A guide from http://theunlockr.com/2009/07/08/how-to-root-your-htc-magic/ - Everything seemed to go alright, but now I can not get passed the "HTC Magic" loading screen.. any ideas? :s

Wish I had seen this first. I did the exact same thing. I also need help……

Seems like it wont save the image at all, after reboot the memory seems wiped with nothing to load.

 

[MontAlbert]

did you wipe before flashing new rom?

Easy instructions is to:

1. fastboot into Amon_RAs 1.2.0 recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530492

fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.0H.img

2. Nandroid backup (although i suspect it might be a bit late for that now for you)
3. Wipe data/factory reset
4. Apply sd card: choose zip
5. select the rom you want to load onto your phone
6. reboot once finished and enjoy root.

I didn't wipe the first time (it didnt say in the guide that I had to), but all the other times I dod wipe the memory. I followed your instructions now, booted from Amon_RAs 1.2.0 recovery, wiped, installed, still no go.. any ideas?

Try to change your SPL.

Go for the "Engineering" one..

Double check if you are installing the correct ROM for your phone. A ROM for 32A in your case. I got the same problem and it came out that I was installing a ROM for 32B while my phone is 32A.

GOOD NEWS!
Got it sorted out!

Some good news for you too, mererid!

1. 1. fastboot into Amon_RAs 1.2.0 recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530492 (as stated above from MontAlbert)

2. type in CMD:
adb shell
mount /sdcard
exit

3. Push up your ROM of choise (I used Amon_RAs Hybrid Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538645 ) using command: adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip

4. Wipe memory/reset factory defaults

5. flash update.zip

6. Boot and enjoy!

edit: It was command number 2 (mounting before pushing) that screwed with me...

Step #2 is not needed - you just need to be patient

The recovery rom presents the boot menu before a lot of the system has finished loading. In particular the sdcard isn't mounted at that point.

If you get errors trying to mount mbmblk then wait 10 seconds and try it again.

I've had the same problem.
The experts said that my device need another kernel. I've tried several ROMs but with flashing dalroid image I was successful.
I have instructions how to patch any ROM with my kernel - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4038589&postcount=8. But I haven't tried it yet.
