First: Search, if you cannot find after at least 5 minutes of search, then you're allowed to start a new thread.
Its annoying to answer questions that people have answered hundreds of times on these forums.
Anyways, to check, turn off your phone, then hold down the camera button as you press the power button, a tri-color screen will popup and on the top it will tell you which SPL you have. If you have the: HBOOT 1.33.2005 SPL then that's the new one.

changed what?
And you need to read the guide to updating to the new SPL... there are dangers to it that you need to be aware of.
Req's:
The newest radio, make sure everything is the same, I've seen a similar version with one letter different that could brick your phone if you use it.
A PVT board which you said you have.
Also after flashing the new spl your phone will not boot so you will need to take your card out and put it in a card reader and load your rom up that way and flash again. The new spl overwrites your existing rom.

Thanks for the link i tried searching but couldnt find it.
That covers the "safe" SPLs, though in theory a bad flash with any bootloader can brick a phone. If you're interested in the "Danger" SPL, which is also known as the Haykuro SPL or the "newest" SPL, check the link in my sig. This SPL really isn't a problem to flash if you have a PVT board and if you make sure to flash to the latest radio first. It also frees up more room on your device, because it takes up less space and repartitions your device accordingly.
I need to know whats the best spl with the highest range of compatibility because hardspl isnt going to cut it forever, or is it one of the best? and whats the difference between death,engineering(the developers i believe?) hryoken (dont know how to spell it) and hard spl?
there are 4 spls, stock, hard, eng, and the spl of many names though technically the 1.33.2005 spl. basically you will either use the hard spl or the 1.33.2005 spl. the 1.33.2005 spls opens up more space in /system and /data so that you have more room for roms and themes. it can also brick the phone when flashing it. you really didn't search very much before making this did you?
I think haykuros danger spl is the best but its danger to flash this spl

so hard and engineering spls are pretty much the same thing while all the other spls that can possible brick your phone, dont add anything? just more space?
Read the wiki, it lists them and what they are.
Hello I have a mytouch3g with CM 4.2.10.1. Both my radio and SPL are the stock ones.
Now, I want to flash my Perfect SPL to a Non perfect one.
First of all can someone FINALLY explain to me what a non perfect SPL will do for me?
And can someone please epxplain WHICH SPL to use and a step by step guide on how to flash it? i dont want to brick my phone . I HAVE googled this and have found guides for G1 and 32A but not for mytouch (32B)
Also im not sure if this is where to post but because Dream Dev forums also server as Magic 32B forums Im going out on a limb here lol
Again any help would be appreciated!
as long as you are running CM rom you don't need to flash/update spl
... wat if i want to try another rom?
can you please not reply 'you dont need it' and instead reply what the benefits are and how to flash it?
thanks!
The reason you flash a new SPL is so that you can use different ROMs that need it. Unless you want to switch from Cyanogen then there isn't a reason to flash a new SPL. If you want to flash Haykuro's SPL (A.K.A "Death" SPL) then here are my instructions.
1. Make sure you have a custom recovery.img like Amon-Ra's or Cyan's
2. Download the new radio and Haykuro's SPL from here. http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/
Also download whatever new ROM you want to try out that uses the new SPL. Put those 3 .zips onto your SD card.
3. Put your phone into recovery and make a Nand Backup, just in case.
4. FLASH THE RADIO FIRST!!! IF YOU FLASH THE SPL BEFORE THE RADIO THEN YOUR PHONE WILL BRICK!!!
5. Flash the SPL.
6. Flash your new ROM.
Yes, exactly in that order, and yes, you have to flash a new ROM or reflash the one you're using.
BTW, I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
what about flashing custom splash images?
and yes i do want to try some other roms

Those you'll need fastboot for, and a fastboot-enabled spl (i.e. Haykuro spl). There are very nice guides in the theme section on what you'll need and how to do it

Since you said you're on a T-Mobile MyTouch 3G you might want to check out this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529019
Using an SPL file for the dream, like you've been linked to in a previous post could quite possibly brick you're phone.
CyanogenMod work's on both Dream's & Sapphires but not all associated fies for theese phone are interchangeable, solely based on the fact that the ROM you're using is.
My best advice to you would be to browse the Sapphire threads before going any further with you're mod's
woot flashed my SPL to 1.33.2005 and it worked like a charm! also flashed my splash image.
jsut one question: on my bootloader screen the SPL says H, instead of G. My stock perfect SPL said G. I know H stands for HTC SPL and G is the Google SPL, but what is the difference in functionality?

Did you flash the radio?
Haykuro SPL allows larger roms to be installed(i feel like a broken record repeating this) that's all you need to know the other details arent necessary to know.
no i did not flash the radio? why, do i need to?

You didnt mention you had the 26I radio, nevermind then thought you had a older one. Also you should have said your using mt3g since it doesnt need the radio.
i did say i have a mt3g its in my original post
im so confused. I KNOW i didnt brick my phone causei m already booted into cyanogen mod and definatly NOT bricked.
so wat the hell is going on????
why is my letter changed from a G to an H? what does this mean to me?

Nothing. you didnt brick, i got you confused with someone else that asked about help with rooting.
You dont need to worry about the stuff in bootloader its from the SPL upgrade.
then why did my letter change from a G to an H?
should i flash something else?
im freaking out right now !

Do you mean in fastboot?
Its suppose to change...
I dont understand why your so concerned with that, its should say Hboot.
Sapphire/Magic/Ion/MT3G roms are here, some G1 roms work though
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=493
what?? No everything works i can load into bootloader, change from Hboot mode to fastboot mode, i can boot into my ROM (cyanogen 4.2.10.1) and everything seems to be working.
to clarify: in bootloader, on top it it used to show me (on stock perfect SPL) SAPPHIRE PVT 32B ENG S-ON G
now it shows me (on danger SPL) SAPPHIRE PVT 32B ENG S-OFF H
the G changed to an H
I have read that the H stands for an HTC SPL and G stands for Google SPL. Since the stock SPL was google and I changed to HTC is this going to cause any problems? and was it suppose to change to an H in the first place or did i do something wrong??

You didnt say that though, i was unsure of what you meant. You see that SPL is from the HTC Magic which has the H not G. It suppose to show H. That is the HTC SPL not the standard google one shiiped w/ google experience phones .
i understand that but does this affect my Mytouch 3g (which is a google phone) in any way?

There is *NO BENEFIT* to it (despite what all the MORONS will claim, it is NOT required for ANYTHING), and regardless of your hardware, there is ALWAYS a risk.
Fact is that the deathspl is NOT COMPATIBLE with ANY HTC DREAM, so don't be using it!

All it means is that the rom dev was REALLY LAZY. All you need to do is a VERY MINOR modification and resign to the update.zip. Move some files into /cache and symlink them back.
Or, you could simply use a rom where the rom dev(s) aren't so lazy and actually made the thing to intelligently move files around...
i.e. this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629932
or this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624545
(note re the second one: the requirements list shows DEATHSPL. This is NOT the case.)

Im confused. Im not trying to offend you (as maybe Im not getting something), but are you saying that Dwang and Cyanogen ar lazy? After all, they are responsible for Super D 1.8 (which I hear is AWESOME) and it requires the danger spl.
Or is there a better way to flash Super D?

They are not responsible for Super-D but rather their work is the base for it. I don't agree with lbcoder but I understand what he is saying. Lazy is not the choise of words I would choose to use.

Gotcha. Im assuming then that you have nothing against using the Danger SPL when required (and if the hardware matches)?
Lazy, ignorant, how about a FAKE.
99.9% of rom cookers haven't the FAINTEST idea what they're doing. They haven't written a single line of code in their LIVES and all they do is mix and match APK files in the update archive, put their own personalized B.S. in the build.prop file, and resign the archive.
So "lazy" *IS* the right word. Too lazy to actually learn something of any significance. Note: the work needed to get ANY rom onto a STOCK SPL is quite literally *TRIVIAL*. Drag a few files around, add a couple of lines to the update-script, done.

The only hardware that it matches is HTC MAGIC, which is where it was copied from.

Wow. Ok, now I'm a bit paranoid to flash Super D tomorrow on my G1 (waiting on Class 6 micro), as I haven't heard this issue brought up before.
The forums have been chock full of anger lately. Not sure where it all comes from except maybe the weather has people down.
I think the WG roms do not require the Danger SPL so that would be a good choice. Our phones are a very tight fit but some roms do fit just fine.
I am running out of here with my head down! Good Luck.
So no answers that are clearing the situation. Is possible or not to install Danger SPL/ Death SPL over the DREA100 PVT version???

Which SPL are you currently using? You should be fine since you have a PVT board, its just the DVT boards that cannot use the Danger SPL. When I reboot holding the camera button this is what the top line says
"DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF"
What does yours say?

Hope that is useful.
Are you still on the stock SPL? I just did a little googling and it seems that DREA100 PVT 32B is normal to see on the stock SPL. The key is to know that you have a PVT board, which you do. I would say you should be fine. Check out the link in my sig and ask in that thread and maybe someone else will weight in. The dev section gets a lot more traffic than the q&a section.
Don't let lbcoder scare you, if you know what your doing, DEATH spl is completely safe. Follow Joe's guide, its easy to follow and guaranteed not to screw you up. I've been using death spl for the last few months and my G1 is still running It makes life a helluva lot easier for you just to have it installed, then you won't have to worry about a rom not fitting in your phone.
