So I think I may have bricked my magic

from everything I've read, I cant seem to find a working fix for my problem.

I was originally on CM6 and decided I wanted a sense rom so I installed sfm 1.0
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1025330

after running it for a bit I realized I couldn't get data access and found out I didn't upgrade my radio to 6.35.16.19

I also discovered for some reason I lost root.

I did something stupid without researching I went to the tutorial I used to originally root my phone.
http://greatbigdog01.wordpress.com/2...rooting-guide/

at step 4 while installing the RUU it got stuck installing the radio and sat at 36% so like an idiot I pulled the battery.

now I am at a RUU USB screen
there is a picture of a microchip with a red x through it at the bottom
I have no recovery
I can run fastboot
I can only run adb shell after using "fastboot oem boot" which loads SFM 1.0

Every RUU Ive tried stalls installing the radio
everything I've tried to get root back fails
everything Ive tried to get recovery fails

any help on this would be immensely appreciated
Thanks
Dan

good day!

I have the same case as you did on my HTC Magic. I already have CM6 but decided to revert to Sense because I want to sim unlock my Magic. What you have describe seems to be identical with what happened to my Magic (stuck upto 36% only) and RUU boot.

Have you resolved this issue? If so, can u help me on this please?

Thanks.
