Root Magic proc freq amd rooting

[Booky]

OK I'm new here I know that there is many topics like this one but also many off topic so I don't have that much time to read all that.


As I can see my phone runs on 388mhz and never go to the 528 even when game run. So what do I need to be 528. I have Vodafone My touch and it's 1.5. So now I need to root my phone then to upgrade to 1.6 and then to download some apps that allows proc. to run on 528mhz??

Can some one tell me direction what to do first. Also some link how to root Vodafone magic would be nice.

Thx friends

EDIT: I did some search, but I'm not sure what will work because my phone is Vodafone.

The only thing I have to add is that if you install a custom rom such as Cyanogen's, it will llikely clock the cpu to 528; you won't need anything else.

Ok I get it. Just one question. I have to do

• 2.4 Flash Android 1.6 & CyanogenMod 4.2.x/4.1.99+

Because my is 1.5 so I don't have to downgrade anything?

No, I think you need to start from the top, just skipping the parts involving the Cupcake rom (COC10).

Also, make sure your phone is listed in the tested units at the top of the page.

Sorry to be like this but one more question. What about this one click root?

YouTube - How To - Root Your HTC Magic in One Click (www.TheUnlockr.com)

To me this is much easier?

That should be fine. The only difference I can see is that you're installing FlashRec from your installed rom instead of from Hboot, which would save you a reboot or two.

Oh, and I do recommend using the Amon_Ra recovery over Cyanogen's, like they showed there, so that's a good thing.

Go for it, and good luck. I'm off to bed soon.

OK. I rooted my phone without problem and now just last think to do.

• 2.3 File Download
• 2.4 Flash Android 1.6 & CyanogenMod 4.2.x/4.1.99+

Is this ok for my Vodafone version?

EDIT: My Vodafone magic came unlocked but I really don't know from which country, is that a problem?

 

[Booky]

Anyone?? Just to confirm this so I can do the update.

Yeah dude, I answered your PM. Just flash the 1.6 base, then Cyanogen's rom over it.

 

[Booky]

Just to report that I did it. I have 1.6 now eith Super D. It looks very nice and I love it. It's fast and run ok for now. Only thing is that I don't have nothing on my phone now, not even ringtones.

In addition to the instructions on that page, you can also copy the tones to your SD, then move them on to the phone's memory, using Root Explorer from the Market.
