HTC Magic ROM upgrade brings Sense UI onboard.

  • October 23, 2009 7:40 am

HTC Magic owners lusting after the eye candy and graphical supremacy that is the Sense UI can now make use of an updated Magic ROM via HTC’s support site. Besides including the Sense UI, this updated ROM, version ” 3.03.715.4″, comes complete with Android 1.5 Cupcake. Not quite as exciting as 1.6 (Donut), though better than nothing at least.

Talk of HTC Magic’s getting the Sense UI have been discussed before as has the lack of T-Mobile/Google branded MyTouch 3G’s from receiving this same update due to licensing issues. Anyone care to risk their unit to see if they can manage to squeeze it in?

  • Upgrade instructions here **You will need to have valid serial numbers in order to download the update from the support site. Maybe that’s how they’ll lock out MyTouch 3G/Google branded device users…

Android users tired of the G1′s off-center and less than visually appealing hardware can sit up and get excited as T-Mobile has officially come clean with their latest Android handset, the T-Mobile myTouch 3G. While the OS is the same as the G1 (Cupcake 1.5), the hardware is a nice boost making an upgrade worthwhile. Gone is the physical keyboard and clunky “big chin” that stuck out on the first model. The new handset features a much more slimming and sleeker appearance which ultimately means a much nice feel in your hand. So just how much does the G2/myTouch 3G bring to the open source table? Step inside for the full spec sheet to feast your eyes upon.
