Upgrading CRB43 to CRC1 to upgrade Android HTC Magic Vodafone to 1.6 Donut
I love trying out new interfaces and environments. Normally, as my mobile phone, I am using iPhones exclusivley, snice they offer me pretty much all I need from a smartphone, but I have been very interested in looking into Android, since the whole open source, while I think is a total bullshit, nevertheless by pure logic opens quite a lot of possibilities for the developer, alas there should be plenty of extrordinary software. Being in Australia now for quite some time, I figured to get one of HTC Magic to play around in the evenings when I got nothing better to do. All phones are SIM locked in OZ, but having spent enough time in Antwerp, Belgium (the home of dodginess for electronics), I know better — went out, bought an unlocked unit and started playing around. Found couple of flaws, most annoying of which was no possibility to search local. Then, couple of days later — hurray! Android went 1.6 Donut, that has exactly this functionality amongs others. Great… Waited for the OTA update… nothing… official rollout… nothing. Started to look for the ways to manually update my unit. Found plentyful of files, but since my HTC Magic runs 1.5 Cupcake CRB43, could use none of them, as they where all ready for CRC1. Shit!
Finally, today, I have found what I have been looking for. Here it comes:
CRB43 to CRC1 is here
CRC1 to DRC92 is all over the place.
Enjoy!
