Flashing new SPL on Vodafone HTC Magic
DO NOT FLASH DREAM SPL ON MAGIC DEVICES!
You might want to flash your SPL (bootloader) on your HTC Magic, to enable the usage of third party ROMs for your phone. This can be done easily but finding the correct SPL in the following thread: Magic SPL HBOOT Collection
When you have found a SPL that suits the motherboard on your phone, which you can find in the fastboot menu on your phone by booting the phone while holding Back and End/Power, you can now push the SPL update.zip to your phone.
adb push /path/to/update.zipWhen you are done with pushing it, boot a rooted recovery rom. See Enabling root on a Vodafone HTC Magic for instructions. When you have booted the recovery rom, apply the update.zip – and thats it. You can now flash thrid party ROMs on your phone including Hero roms and so on.
I take no responsibility for bricked phones or whatsoever.
