Hello; I am a newbie, ex IPhone Fanboy Junkie jailbreak/unlocker and I decided to switch to Android so I am starting all over again. I am trying to root the phone. I downloaded fastboot, superboot, the Andriod SDK and installed, or at least i believe I installed the usb drivers. It mounts fine on both windows and mac and on windows it makes that sound and says its attached when connected. But when I reboot into bootloader mode to unlock it, windiows makes those 3 quick beeps because its not recognizing the device in bootloader mode. I have "usb debugging" checked on the device. Can anyone tell me what I am missing?
Try "adb devices" in normal mode or "fastboot devices" in bootloader to confirm you have the drivers installed correctly and your computer recognizes the phone.
If it is recognized correctly in normal but not bootloader, confirm that your phone is in bootloader mode (not fastboot). If it is not recognized in either, work on installing the usb drivers correctly.

I just recently got into modding my N1 a few weeks ago and finally hit my first snag:
Original root was through superoneclick, so bootloader is still locked. I flashed over to stock GRI40 OTA without realizing (stupidly) that flashing
it would also flash over my RA recovery and unroot my phone. Now, superoneclick is incompatible with GRI40, so I can't re-root through that, and I'm having trouble
with unlocking the bootloader through fastboot.
I get no response from ADB or fastboot in windows cmd prompt when I boot phone to FASTBOOT.
the command "fastboot devices" gives me a repeat of the same prompt with no error. (I can't get fastboot to work in normal debugging mode either, and I don't know if it usually will, because this is the first time I've used it.)
the command "adb devices" gives me response-- "list of devices attached" with nothing below (ADB works fine in debugging mode though).
I thought it might be a driver problem, but "Android bootloader Interface" driver is on the device manager list while phone is in fastboot, and seems to be properly
installed; I can't seem to find another suitable driver to update it to anyways.
Beyond that, there don't seem to be any other drivers running in the device manager either.
It's to the point where I'm considering taking the long way around and re-rooting through passimg, but that may not work anyways from what I've been reading, and that still won't fix my fastboot issue.
Any ideas on why I can't get fastboot to work?
my devise manager lists it as 'Android 1.0' when connected with fast boot..
if the drivers were installed on their own, then uninstal them.. and manually update the drivers (download them yourself)
that might help.. idk..

I think that may be part of the problem because I'm not seeing Android 1.0 on the device manager list. I do have an unknown device on there, but I can't update the driver with any of the Google USB drivers. Also, I'm pretty sure it's not my N1 because I'll unplug the N1, delete the unknown device, and scan for hardware changes and it will pop up again, so I don't think it has anything to do with my phone.
Put your phone in to fast boot, plug the phone in to a different port on your computer. If you have been plugging it in to the front, plug it in to the back. If you have been plugging it in to the back, plug it in to the front.
This should force windows to re-detect your device and it will hopefully install the missing drivers you're needing...
That was a good idea, but I had no luck with that one either. Thanks though.
Alright, shreyas said device is "Android 1.0" from windows device manager when the phone is in fastboot. Why does mine say "Android Bootloader Interface" and is this the case for everyone else?
Even more interestingly, I'll uninstall it, manually install whatever driver I chose for it, and that installation will fail. Then, I'll uninstall it again and have 'puter automatically scan for hardware, "android 1.0" pops up as one of the unknown devices but then gets reassigned as "android Bootloader Interface" after automatically installing drivers.
Oh yeah, I'm running Windows 7 64.
The drivers mentioned here didn't help either

i am on win7 32!
btw umm try this link
http://android.modaco.com/content/z...com/319156/winxp-7-zte-blade-drivers-and-adb/
another umm stupid thing mayb, did you try out adb wireless..?
Have you tried using the PDANet drivers? Those are the ones that I've had the best luck with on my Win7 x64 laptop.
EDIT: Seems you have...
I'd recommed using an application called USBDeView (I think?) to manually uninstall all USB drivers for Android/HTC/ADB/NexusOne/etc, and THEN installing the PDANet drivers.
Thanks for your help. I ended up downloading "superboot," which has fastboot on it, and it works just fine. I don't know what the deal is with the fastboot that came with the SDK but my computer just doesn't seem to like it. I checked and rechecked all commands and file directories, and I just don't get it...oh well, I hope this helps others.
Thanks again.
cannot connect to pc i have unlocked bootloader with htcdev and installed cwm touch v 6.0.4.4 one Flyhalf205's thread. that all worked fine.

You cannot do fastboot devices in recovery mode.
in recovery mode you can do adb devices to check if your phone is recognized by your laptop
in fastboot usb mode, you can do fastboot devices to check if your phone is recognized by your laptop
I have the same. Was working fine beforehand now nothing. When I connect to the PC with the phone booted it connects then a second or two later disconnects, like it "doesn't like" the connection. It tried to install HTC MTP driver but fails as it says the "device is disconnected." Fastboot USB works fine though and I can carry out fastboot commands from bootloader, but no ADB

I tried fast boot devices in fast boot USB by going into minisdk. Didn't try in recovery would have been good to try adb devices in recovery because I was stuck in that when first tried the custom recovery but a hard reset kicked it back out. Got recovery sorted just wanted to take nandroid backup off phone to PC and put root files which I'm still trying to get best 1's any idea where to get them where URL link is working? I've tried fastboot so doesn't work and basic trying to connect phone to PC for file transfer doesn't work either

Ok so not only person. When I try connect mine doesn't even flag up I've connected a device USB debugging starts up on phone but have just noticed USB connection doesn't show. Plus I connect to PC and doesn't make the sound as I've it recognized my connecting anything. Fastboot USB comes up empty. I've been spending a couple hours here and there for past 2 nights trying to set phone up ready for rum runner. But my other question is if I'm already on htc_001 there's no need for me to change CID num anyways? Thanks
Try going to command prompt and typing in set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1 followed by start devmgmt.msc
Click on view and show hidden devices. This will show devices which are not connected but have been installed. Look for something like android phone or android device and update the drivers by selecting update driver > let me select > have disk and then select the driver from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386956
Try that and see if it works
I'm all sorted now thanks just kept at it.

Hi,
I have a problem with my device, when I connect it to pc adb can see it easily but when i type "adb reboot-bootloader" it boots to fastboot but my pc doesnt see the device anymore and there is no device detected when I use "fastboot devices" command.
It used to work before windows update but now it does what I said.
Is it because of the drivers? if so can anyone send me a link to proper windows 10 drivers for china k20 pro.
I'm not rooted and no twrp. Just the stock firmware (10.3.16).

I had this problem in my Nokia 7 Plus, then i used and installed "minimal adb and fastboot" file which detected my phone in fastboot. It installs in program file with a folder named "minimal adb and fastboot"

You need to enable "USB debugging" in the developper options

It is enabled.
And ill try with the minimal adb option
Update:
Still not working
I have same problem, there is no way to recognize my 9t pro in fastboot mode... i cant do anything
First it should be intel pc
Try to install Xiaomi drivers and adb
Boot to recovery and fastboot while connecting to usb to install the drivers
Then check again
Did anyone solve this? I'm experiencing the same issue. ADB works fine, but no device is listed at all (device manager in win7 or syslog in linux) when connecting the phone in fastboot mode. It's like it wasn't physically connected at all.

Try changing ports / connect to another pc
Install proper drivers .
Is your bl unlocked now ?
Got it to work under win7 with great help from this post.
What I did was:
Update to the latest miui version (to MIUI Global 11.0.3, as prompted in system settings, I hadn't bothered to update because I just want to throw miui out)
Disable OEM unlock
Reboot
Enable OEM unlock again
Reboot into fastboot
Then the phone showed up as an unknown device in Device Manager
Right clicked the device and updated the driver, chose to search for drivers in the miflash_unlock-en-3.5.1108.44\driver\xp-win7-win8 folder
The device now lists as an Android Bootloader Interface device
And now:
$ fastboot devices
e150445 fastboot
MiFlash unlock detects the phone, and I could proceed with unlocking. Still have to wait though. Tried the older-version-trick as suggested here, but that just told me to update to the latest version. Guess I'll have to wait a week then...
Hope this helps someone. This is the most tedious unlocking procedure I've encountered so far...
I have a very odd issue with fastboot. The computer (windows 10) detects the device the first time I use fastboot and then will not show up in device manager on other attempts.
I have the EU variant running Oxygen OS 11.0.11.11.EB12BA with Magisk installed.
I have installed the Oneplus ADB drivers and this works flawlessly. Booting the first time into fastboot mode the device showed in the device manager, I was able to install the fastboot driver and fastboot devices showed my phone.
Trying a second or third time nothing shows in the device manager. The device is completely absent from USBDeview.exe. It behaves as if it's not even plugged in.
I was able to reproduce this on another computer I have.
Is anyone else facing this issue and/or knows what might be going wrong?
EDIT: If it helps anyone else having this issue I'm able to get the "OnePlus Android Bootloader Interface" to show up if I plug the phone into a USB HUB, then plug the HUB into the computer. Rebooting the phone again into fastboot will not show up but if I unplug and replug the hub in the driver will activate again.

You don't need to install any fastboot drivers, if you're on windows; just install one plus driver (without driver signature/in test mode) and stay on them.

Sorry I think I've explained incorrectly. Those are the drivers I've installed, the problem is it only works once.
The second time I reboot the phone into Fastboot mode it doesn't display in device manager. Looking at USBDeview absolutely nothing shows up. Changing USB ports and the cable have no effect, however if I plug the phone into an old USB 2 hub I have then plug that into the computer it will display again in the device manager.
Hi
I'm trying to flash TWRP on my CHe2-L11 via adb but it gets stuck at < Waiting for any device >.
I read somewhere that is because Windows lacks the necesary drivers (although Che2-L11 is listed as "MTP" in the devices connected to my computer).
Where can I find the necessary drivers for Win10?
Thanks a lot
Best,

OK, I made a little progress I think. I'm not sure my issue is actually related to windows drivers but maybe I'm wrong.
Here's the deal:
When my phone is booted and connected to my PC,
adb device
spits up something : the phone is detected. Now after running
adb reboot bootloader
the phones reboots into bootloader mode (and displays the info that the bootloader is unlocked. But from now on,
adb device
in windows CLI outputs nothing : the phone is no longer detected.
Plus now the phone shows up as an unnknown device (fastboot2.0) in windows device manager. So? Missing driver I guess? Windows can not automatically find drivers for this...
Then it make sense that I cannot flash the custom recovery until the phone is detected again.
What should I do to have my phone detected in Windows while it is in bootloader mode?
Thanks a lot
-a-
Running windows update found a driver for
Google Android Bootloader Interface
However, ADB still cannot detect it
EDIT: Actually it works! Even though
adb devices
would not list anything when the phone was in bootloader mode, I was able to flash twrp
Problem solved!
