Chicken,

Read the bold writing at the top of this post. Its obsolete. Goto the How To UnRoot the MyTouch Procedure, follow that. Then do the How To Root the MyTouch/G1 in One Click procedure and then Load a Custom ROM.

Francis,

You are doing an obsolete procedure. Read the bold writing at the top.
When you get to the right procedure it will tell you in the before you begin that you need to downgrade if you have donut and provides the link to do so. Good Luck!

Sorry. My mistake. The actual message I got was “Could not run command” and according to the FlashRec site my firmware is patched. Is there a way around this?

I tried rooting my Rogers HTC Magic yesterday and I got the “failed” error when I was applying the backup. I researched it a bit from the links provided and it says that because I did the official HTC Rogers update (I’m still on cupcake though) the rooting process doesn’t work.

Is someone working on a way to root the phone (32A) even when it has the official HTC/Rogers update applied?

Hello RR,

Can you get into recovery mode? What recovery mode is showing? Amon Ra or Cyanogens?
If so just download a different Hero ROM, rename it to update and put it on the SD card, then do Wipe Data and Apply Update.zip
