mytouch fender stuck at "HTC Magic" splash screen.

I buddy of mine gave me this mytouch fender because he tried to root the phone and he's an idiot.
Now the phone is stuck at the "HTC Magic" splash screen and won't boot into android and won't boot into any kind of recover.
I can get into hboot though by holding down volume and power.
Where do I start? I have a Sprint Epic 4g that I rooted for my wife so I'm not a complete moron I just need a push in the right direction for this phone.

Start by post ALL fastboot info, ALL.
Plus the outcome of this command:
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main

I didn't want to get it wrong so I just took some pics

Actually, I might be a little closer to a moron than you think.
(I just meant that I can follow directions easily enough to get through a guide or tutorial)

I noticed on the phone that all the other progress bars fill up and disappear but when it gets to the purple progress bar and tries to flash recovery it just sits there without filling in any color at all.
Somebody else was telling me that I needed a "gold card" because this is a Fender T-Mobile phone?
Anyway, I still have the phone in the last state it was in when the recovery failed to flash and I haven't rebooted yet. Waiting to here what to do next.

Try to flash the recovery alone!!!
Also provide the info inside the "actual tab".
Do not reboot, do not shutdown the tool....
You do not need any goldcard... you have eng spl...
Don't worry... as long the hboot and radio was ok, you are in no harm :0)

Same result when I try to flash recovery alone.

Ok... go misc tab. Select only the recovery in red square. Push "erase chosen partition". Now try to flash the recovery from the first tab again...
Remember to post the output from the "actual tab" here... i don't want the other info..

try to flash this instead:

It didn't work again after erasing recovery partition. Here's the output. I'm downloading that other file right now. You want me to flash that as recovery?

check your pm

Flash the eng spl again, the 1.33.2010... find it under magicfiles bundled with the tool.
If it goes well, then reboot into fastboot again... then try to flash the recovery... if it goes well, then flash the hboot that was meant to the fender (the one you downloaded to begin with) and, reboot if that want well to.

brotha its beastie here is your answer
You need to revert back to a HTBOOT that will accept the update. Here is your instructions.

If you are bootloader LOCKED and S-ON, I don't see how you could be flashing anything whatsoever. Did you leave something out?

I doubt it, since Sunshine only works on a booted handset that is pre-Nougat. I have no idea whether @beaups or @jcase could somehow S-OFF it without being able to boot it. You might want to ask in that thread.

after 4 hours of finding a error with the fastloader -w command i finally got it. it was the combination of a usb 3 port and the usb cabel from essential and a windows 10 computer.
My phone is now on oreo and and the bootloader is logged again!

Yeah don't use the usb c cable that comes with the phone for data. I have a USB c to A cable from Anker that I use.

The Essential supplied usb-c cable should not be used for anything but charging. Even Essential admits it is too poor to use for data transmission. Get a good quality usb-c cable and try again.
