You should go to fastboot and flash another recovery and then you can go to recovery.

Hey I'm seriously noob when its coming to HTC.
I dnt even know how fast boot mode works, If you can guide me through brief tutorial that should help me
Seriously dnt understand that tutorial, All i have done is boot phone to flash boot mode and waited PC to detect it, I dnt know what exactly should i do after connecting it
First open CMD.exe (command/ black box)
type cd and the go to were the files are located so if you put them in the map android on your c: drive it's cd c:\android
then connect your phone and copy/paste the codes from that post.

If anyone can guide me remotely it would be great.

I tried to flash the CWM recovery from my PC through CLI, Below is the error poped when i tried to boot or flash from image

I tried downloading recovery img from "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059911" thread but the link has expired
Hence i download this image from 4shared, Not sure this is the correct rom or not.
Help me after this
This happened because you flashed bravo recovery and not the 32a recovery.
follow the link provided by danger_tweaker post no. 4
everything is properly explained in and download your recovery "carz-clockworkmod-3.0.2.8-recovery.zip" only or if you are able to turn on device then download ROM Manager and flash recovery because htc magic are legacy(old,outdated) devices so file are removed from most of the sites.
BTW have you ever flashed the recovery???
I had searched for your recovery but all links are expired. View attachment 1161540 See if this recovery works for you. I had downloaded it long back and currently I don't have any previous version of carz mod :angel:, neither I remember its source link . It is the same clockwork mod-carz-recovery only version is different v4.0.1.4 see if it flashes through fastboot :fingers-crossed:.

That's not working because your command is wrong, you forgot one "recovery". He's telling you that there is no partition named "recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.8-bravo.img" because the correct name is "recovery". The correct command would be
Code:
fastboot flash [COLOR="Red"]recovery[/COLOR] recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.8-bravo.img
But i think you'll also get "FAILED (remote: not allow)".
I think you need to tell us what's written in your fastboot screen on the phone. Also a
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
would be helpful.

As u said i got the same error
I worked on gold card mode and try updating using "sappimg.zip"
I get "Incorrect CID" as error even after me making an exact gold card asper the tutorial @ http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Howto:_Create_a_Goldcard
Help me ASAP
You get this error "FAILED (remote: not allow)" because of your SPL-version - it seems to be a perfect one, you can't flash your phone with commandline.
Show us what's written in your fastboot-menu (everything, radio, hboot and so on, everything you can see).
Also give us the output of
Code:
fastboot getvar cid
please.
When did you get this error "Incorrect CID"?
Do you have some other Android-phone? Then create your Goldcard with GoldCardTool (for example as explained here).
Which sappimg.zip did you try? Don't just take one without knowing if you can take it!
1. Output for command
C:\Android>fastboot getvar cid
cid: HTC__038♦
finished. total time: 0.001s
2. Attached the screen shot of HBoot & Fastboot mode
3. I have an S2 i managed to fetch the CID using SimpleGoldCard_v1.zip from http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach...d6/4ff07379/5/2/8/8/9/6/SimpleGoldCard_v1.zip
4. I slected mmc1 in the tool to detect my MMC CID to be changed to gold card
5. I used ROM v2.16.707.3 (NON-Perfected stock SPL v1.33.0009 from this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548218

As i said, because of the SPL-version you can't flash with commandline. You have to use sappimg.zip or nbh. To flash those, the rom needs to have a higher version than the installed one.
Your main-version is 3.05.720.3, as you see here a higher version would be "3.05.861.2 Hutchinson Australia". To flash this you need the Goldcard - it lets you install roms of different providers.
Download that rom, copy it to your SD-card (Goldcard) and rename it to SAPPIMG.zip and try to flash it. If it still tells you "CID incorrect" your Goldcard isn't created correct or the SD-card doesn't work as Goldcard.
If you finished this we're going on. Just short:
When you're done your phone should boot the normal way. Now you need to get the correct rom for your CID on it - 39) 3.05.720.3 1.76.0009H 6.35.08.29 N HTC__038 is for your phone, it's that one 3.05.720.3 India.
You can't flash this as sappimg.zip because the version of this rom is lower than the installed one. You need to install a custom-recovery on your phone to be able to install any rom-version - to install this you need to root your phone (there are some tutorials on XDA). With the custom-recovery you're going to install the stock-rom and you're done. If you like to you can also install custom-roms on your phone - you just need to install a custom-recovery again to install that.
I'm not an expert - i just know what i read and experienced when i debricked my HTC magic. If somebody thinks i'm wrong with my suggestions, just tell! :laugh:

I can confirm that the RUU downloaded from the HTC site (link above) at 2.1G works correctly.
You will NOT lose Unlock or S-off if you have done so already. However, the process WILL wipe your system, so you will need to reinstall TWRP 2.8.6.4 (unofficial), SuperSU beta and any custom ROM you want.
Have at it!

Hey, so right now I'm still running Sense. I understand that this will remove root and the custom recovery but will this also reset the device back to factory default settings and data? I know, dumb question, but I just want to make sure I'm able to keep all my messages, apps, data, ect. If not, then I'll just make a backup with HTC sync manager.
Thanks

Nope. They'll get blown away. You should ALWAYS have a backup saved to your PC.

are you sure you are doing it right and using htc_fastboot? Make sure you are not using fastboot or any mac ver of fastboot. You must be in download mode
htc_fastboot.exe oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot.exe flash zip ruu.zip
htc_fastboot.exe flash zip ruu.zip
htc_fastboot.exe reboot
I have confirmed this working on my at&t m9
or if you have a 32gig or smaller sd card, rename file to 0PJAIMG.ZIP and put it in the root of your sd card and go to download mode, MUST be formatted in fat32 from a computer first.
btw for the op, I have confirmed the fastboot-mac nor fastboot for mac work with this. They have to be decrypted in order for it to work with plain old mac fastboot. It was like this on m7 and m8 too. wish someone would port the htc_fastboot to mac then I could take off this darn parallels
Yes, unfortunately can confirm I followed the above steps and am using htc_fastboot.exe. I continue to get the same error below.
I will continue trying as I don't have a small enough sd card for the other method.

This is the htc_fastboot from the AT&T RUU

If you using a different one try that one
Are you md5 checking your download ? are you starting the flash in download mode (black screen not the white bootloader)
try it without the htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU
just boot to download mode and flash it
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
if the phone reboots during the process hold volume down to enter download mode again and let it finish

I managed to track down the RUU for A5_DUG with CID: HTC__622 (Asia_HK version). The filename is:
0P9CIMG_A5_DUG_L50_DESIRE_SENSE60_MR_hTC_Asia_HK_2.34.708.1_Radio_1.13.3230.27.0303_13.19.3230.00D_F_release_443977_combined_signed_2_4.zip
I have uploaded it to MEGA here: [url]https://mega.nz/#!28QiwDqA!NovlOSELHcoW7D8LgT2UdYVfQn07QDtmhvC7AMEJz-4[/URL]
Please note that this RUU is of the Lollipop version. It is possible downgrade to it from marshmallow, and then update via OTA (and I recommend that you do so for more memory space. I have done this myself).
How to flash an RUU:
NOTE: This guide is relevant to all variants and CIDs of the device. However, the RUU that I linked above ONLY works for the specific variant+CID mentioned above! If you have a different variant OR CID you will need to find the correct RUU for your device. You can get your CID with:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
NOTE 2: This guide is formatted incorrectly, and does not display correctly in the XDA app...
If you have unlocked the bootloader, you need to lock it. Run this command in FASTBOOT (ignore any errors that appear):
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Copy the RUU file to a MicroSD card. You must use a MicroSD card, it does NOT work on the internal storage! (I haven't tested with OTG but it might work)
Rename the file to 0P9CIMG.zip
Insert the MicroSD card into the device. Now boot to the bootloader (if you are in FASTBOOT choose HBOOT) and after a few seconds it will ask you if you want to update.
Choose yes. The process will take a while and the device will reboot at least once.
At the end it will tell you to press power to reboot. That means you are done and the device is restored to stock conditions.
