revolutionary stuck on "Waiting for device"

I currently have hboot 1.13
When i type "Fastboot devices" It comes up with my phone connected, just revolutionary won't pick it up.
Help please?
Thanks

Here's a good place to start.

You probably have HTC Sync installed. Uninstall it and instal only drivers from Revolutionary documentation page.

You really think I haven't googled it before making a thread?
Also I don't have htc sync installed.

Uninstall all which is connected to HTC and their drivers, reboot your PC, install drivers pack, try different USB hub. If all that doesn't work definitely try with another PC.

You'd be surprised how many people don't google before asking. My bad.

It's been a while since I used revolutionary, but I don't think you need to be in fastboot mode. Boot the phone normally and check USB debugging. This may have not turned up in a google search, but I'm pretty sure its mentioned in the..... Instructions.... On their website...
Edit: btw the first hit in the link ZaySk provided pretty much covers every issue you could have while using revolutionary.

I think that revolutionary needs a working rom and a phone booted. For fasboot are only drivers needed, but I recommend to connect phone in fastboot mode just to install drivers, not causing a PC reboot requirement. After the drivers are installed just boot up the phone, connect to PC and run revolutionary.

Make sure your device is not in fastboot mode... It should be booted up.. when on the main screen connect to system and try revolutionary.

USB Not Recognized when in Bootloader

Trying to unlock my bootloader, but when in bootloader mode and plugging my HTC one into my computer it saids "USB not Recognized."
Does anyone have any solutions for this? Can't seen to find one
Also side question, does rooting my phone hamper my ability to get system updates from HTC?

Do you have htc driver installed?
However, yes, you will lose OTA update from HTC

adb will recognize your phone?
However, which os you have?

Make sure you're plugged into a USB 2.0 port. 3.0 ports don't work with ADB on my laptop.

Oh, I've never worked on a mac before, but my HP Envy running Windows 8 would give me that message when I tried to do anything in a 3.0 port, but my 2.0 port works fine.

Ok, tried some minutes ago, with an usb 3.0 it will not work...
Maybe, if someone have a mac, can confirm this.

So its directly related to USB 3.0.
"sigh" gotta pull out my old windows laptop then

Mac is basically linux, and from my experience with linux, you need to configure some stuff in order to get things working, i'm on the phone right now so i don't have a link to share but i recommend looking online.for.a tutorial to build AOSP from source on linux or MAC, there you will.find the steps needed to set up your USB configuration, ignore the rest after the config or.what is not needed.
Hope this helps.

Does this mac have USB 3.0?

Does anyone have any solutions

If you do a search on xda theres new drivers posted specifically for guys having usb issues with 64 bit windows 8.
Can't remember where exact I saw it myself or I'd post a link.

[Q] Rooting w/o USB connection

Hi, guys! I have a really big problem :/. Right now I'm using the stock 2.3.4 gingerbread from LG ,but you all know that this is the worst OS ever. I wanted to get rid of it but i cant connect my device to the computer. It's only charging. I need a way to root it w/o usb connection. Do u have any suggestions? It's not a software problem! Something inside the phone is broken and i don't know what it is. Is there a way to root it via bluetooth or SD card? I didn't find any apps to root it too. I know gingerbreak etc, but they dont work for 2.3.4. Thank you in advance and i hope there is a solution. :fingers-crossed:

I am afraid you can't. Replacing your micro usb port could solve your problem. I reccomend to buy a micro usb port which is already on the flexible cable so you can avoid ironing.

So i'll need this? I asked a staff member in a service station and he said that the port isnt broken. So i need the whole thing port+flexible cable? Is that what i should do? Thanks alot. Ohh man i cant post links still: http:___//i.ebayimg.com/t/LG-G2X-Optimus-2X-P990-P999-Micro-USB-Charging-Port-Flex-Cable-Repair-Part-/00/s/OTU1WDE0MDI=/z/unUAAOxy9DRSAoTf/$T2eC16R,!wsE9suwycosBS!oTe7+VQ~~60_57.JPG

stupid question: did you try another usb cable or usb port?

Yeah, dude. Of course. I've tried different settings like usb debugging on/off too but still nothing.

here are some articles you might want to check out regarding usb connection

i forgot how the mass storage settings in gingerbread look like but there should be an option to put the phone in "charge only" mode (which you should disable)... pressing menu key in settings > storage doesn't give you any options to choose?

In gingerbread you can only turn usb mass storage and usb debugging on/off. These settings didn't help. I'll read more about the first link you gave me and try it out.

This is quite challenge, root without usb connection. First idea I got to use ADB over WiFi, but this is available from ICS, not on GB.
Second idea - what I remember, some of root methods use APK installation over ADB by script. Maybe you can search for these script methods and place all required files on SD Card. Then try to execute commands by terminal on device itself to install and root.
It's just my idea, maybe wrong, maybe help.

Yes that is what you need if you have to replace your USB port but you don't have skills to replace only the usb port.
You can try gingerbreak to root your phone, but it maybe won't work.

Gingerbreak works on devices with android 2.3.3 and lower. Anyways I've tried it but it didn't work.

I'm not aware of ADB and scripting. Can you give me sоme guidelines?(I'm sorry 'bout my english. I hope you understand)
p.s. I found some info about ADB. So you need ADB to control your device via commands, but you can use ADB on your computer? You say that i have to find a way to use ADB on my phone so it controls itself and roots?

sorry to hear about your problems but just a simple question here have u tried another computer ? i had this problem with my nexus when i connect it to the pc i couldn't transfer my stuff to it but adb worked, but when i took it to another computer both mtp and adb worked

Yes, I've tried another pc's port and it didnt find my device too. My issue isn't the same i mean that my computer doesn' recognize the phone. There are no messeges that appear on the device or computer.

Guys, the problem is not in the computer nor in the cable, it's in the phone. I'm 99% sure that it's a hardware problem. So i need to find a way to root or flash it without using usb connection.

i'm somehow sure that the real problem here is the device driver installation on your PC/Windows, not the phone...
btw which windows version are you using?
did you try checking out the AIO tool thread?

if you read the 1st post, you might find out how could it help you... especially if you use win 8 which caused problems for many other users when trying to install the drivers or trying to flash the phone...
I - Install APX (NVFlash Recovery) Drivers if not already installed.
It starts the windows device driver wizard to help you install the drivers needed for NVFlash. It detects your system OS and gives additional on-screen instructions needed if your PC is running Windows 8.
FYI: The drivers are located under ToolKitFiles\nvflash\driver folder.

I use windows 8 from a week. Anything i've done before was on a xp/ win 7. The problem isnt in the win 8 i use now. I've tried everything on my xp laptop. I have a friend who has the same phone and he can connect it to his computer so everything is fine with his computer. I've tried to connect my optimus to his computer and again it wasnt found by the computer. The problem must be in my device.
I'll try installing the APX drivers.

u said that u wanted to get rid of the lg gingerbread software, and for that u dont really need to root, u could use the all in one toolkit and flash the new unlocked bootloader with cwm or twrp and install the new bootloader rom u want its as easy as that

ADB issues. Hangs on < waiting for device >

So I'm trying to flash the Google Play Edition RUU on my device. I have S-Off. When I try to read my CID, it says < waiting for device > and gets no further. I completely deleted my sdk and reinstalled it because I had read sometime this would be caused by needing to update your sdk. It does the same thing when I try to writecid. Does anyone know why it would hang like this when trying to read or write my CID. I'm running ARHD 13.3 with TWRP (don't know what version number) if that would have anything to do with this.
EDIT: Something else I noticed that may or may not be relevant. When I reboot into the bootloader, my computer says device not recognized.

Try using this guide.
Seems you don't have the driver installed.
However, did you try fastboot command in fastboot?

To use fastboot you need to
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
To use adb you need to be in recovery or live in the os.

I tried what that guide said prior to posting this thread. However, upon re-reading it, I think I have discovered my issue. My laptop only has USB 3.0 ports, and they said they could not get it to work over USB 3.0. I will set up the SDK on my wife's computer and use a USB 2.0 port and see if that resolves the issue. I'll investigate to see if what I'm trying to accomplish can be done on ChromeOS too, cause I'd rather use my Chromebook than take over my wife's computer.

Hi, Yes of course, its a great guide and i did excatly whay they said to my laptop, and i could make it work only for a few minutes, after that the system freezed ( i.e no applications were opening and the system couldn't perform any operation other than right click and left click, couldn't turn off the system even and couldn't open the task manager too ) ,luckily before the system freezed, i quickly changed the kernel of my phone. Then I had no other go other than reverting the USB settings to Microsoft driver.

PC with USB only 3.0 does not allow me to use fastboot

can you help? how can I do?

Windows 8?
Try swapping the microsoft usb 3 drivers for the Intel ones.
What version of Hboot?

windows 8 is, for now I tried the bootloader mode only with my old htc one s, my new htc one I still have to connect it to the PC in bootloader mode

that one S definitely has way too old of an Hboot version. It wasn't until the 4.4 updates that the One had a version of Hboot that works with windows 8.
If you need to use fastboot on older HTC devices [or a One that isn't updated] your best bet is another PC or a Virtual Machine running Windows 7.

What type of motherboard you use? USB 2.0 is provided on each motherboard that I know.

doesn't make a ton of difference. USB 2 + old hboot + windows 8 = noes
