SOLVED
Hello, while trying to SIM unlock following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586704 and this custome HBOOT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2565201
I notice my fastboot connection fails with a "USB not recognized" error after trying fasboot everytime.
Never had this problem before, and ADB recognizes my device correctly every time. Re-installed drivers, and tried other laptops, but all fails at fastboot, which never happened before.
Some info: Windows 8.1, latest drivers (tried different ones), S-OFF, tried various USB ports and laptops. Never had fastboot problems under Windows 8.1 before.
EDIT: I think the problem is the phone itself now after using that custom Hboot? Reason being that no matter what RUU I try, when it tries to start the bootloader, the USB not recognized appears just like when I boot into the bootloader and try to fastboot any command.

So, I guessed right... turns out, under Hboot 1.55, my drivers that worked with 1.56, don't work anymore, so I had to install a fresh copy of Windows 7 x64 on another laptop in order to have a correct Fastboot connection .
There is another thread floating around on getting correct drivers for Hboot 1.55 under Windows 8.1, but I was too lazy to try and, and didn't mind installing a copy of Windows 7 as a dual boot on a laptop, just in case I need it in the future.
PS: I think it would also work under a virtual machine of windows 7 (vmware or virtualbox)

My new AT&T Fuze is my 4th WM (PPC) device. I have been using both Palm and WM devices for years. The problem I am having is that I am trying to install Activesync 4.5 on my HTPC running Windows XP Pro x32 SP3 and I keep getting the same error every time. The program looks pretty much like it installs fine but at the end the final window says:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If I try to sync at this point my Raphael will be detected but no drivers will be found nor loaded so I can not sync.
If I boot into XP Pro x64 SP2 on the same machine I can install and use Activesync with no problem.
I have searched the Net extensively and tried many potential solutions but none of them worked. So you know what I have tried, I have:
Run 'fixmapi.exe'
Renamed my existing mapi32.dll then run fixmapi.exe to create a new one
Disabled my network connection, shut down my firewall/v-scanner (Zonealarm) then tried
The method at this link
Successfully installed Activesync 4.2 then installed v4.5 over it (same error)
I have also searched the forum here including these threads with no luck.

I have not tried installing under Safe Mode because I know that it will not work as the Installer Service would not be running under Safe Mode.
A solution would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading.
Try to install ActiveSync with this command line:
setup.msi /log C:\log.txt
Then post the log.txt file.
As requested.
Try to install... Windows Media Player 10 or above...
Here's the link: http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/2/A/12A31F29-2FA9-4F50-B95D-E45EF7013F87/MP10Setup.exe
I already have Windows Media Player 11 installed.
Still having problem
I am still having this problem. Any help is appreciated.
So I was finally able to get rumrunner to get to the "rebooting into boot loader, waiting for bootloader". my phone will reboot into fastboot, then my computer will come up with this error and nothing will happen then rumrunner will timeout.
Device manager showing my device,

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then I get this error after reboot
and also device manager does not show my phone anymore after the error. This is really frustrating because I am so close but this stupid hiccup is causing a problem. I am using Windows 8.1 and using USB 2.0 with the HTC USB cord, and have followed all the directions.

OMG, thank you for that, I never seen that thread, I am finally S-OFF and it feels so good.
Hello everyone,
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but hope someone can help me.
A friend of mine asked me to fix his Ativ S, which is not booting (don't ask me why). The following error message appears on boot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As hard reset does not seem to fix anything, I decided to follow this guide (http://forums.windowscentral.com/samsung-ativ-s/295444-latest-samsung-ativ-s-firmware-updates.html) in order to flash a working rom to the phone. I am on Windows 8.1, and disabled driver signature verification to install samsung drivers, which finished succesfully. Nevertheless, I can't make WP8 SMD binary downloader to detect/recognise the phone.
To begin with, the correct driver is not automatically selected, so when first plugged the phone in download mode is detected as an unknown device:
Forcing to update the drivers from the folder where the samsung driver is installed does not work (it won't detect a suitable driver). So I manually browsed through the different device categories to select which, I believe, is the correct driver:
After this, the phone is recognised as follows:
But, as I said, it won't be detected by the WP8 SMD binary downloader:
I tried with 2 different computers running Windows 8.1 and a third one running Windows 7. I already ran out of ideas, so I hope someone can help me getting the phone detected properly.
Thank you in advance!
UPDATE:
A new version of the driver pop-up through windows update and I could finally restore the device. It is strange that this update is not metioned anywhere I could see, and seams to be necessary (at least it was in my case)
Help me
hi, I have the same problem as you help me please !!
Hi there,
I have just purchased a Zenfone 8, the bootloader is unlocked (I have the ugly message saying that the phone can"'t be trusted because bootloader is unlocked bla bla bla at startup).
However, while adb works, I can't get fastboot to recognize my device.
I tried on W10 and 11, also on Linux Mint.
Other phones are recognized properly by fastboot, but not the zenfone 8. And of course, fastbootd doesn't work.
Anyone faced this issue?
Thanks,
Anghi

I can get into fastboot mode. Using combo key or even "adb reboot bootloader". But on this screen, then fastboot does not recognize the device
And I have tried both bootloader (in principle fastboot) and fastbootd (the one within the recovery) screens. Fastboot commands don't work under both screens.
I think to get fastboot working I had to install the Asus specific driver on my pc
Ok thanks. Let me try.
Okay, solved by trying several USB C wires.
Thanks for the advices and help!
Hi,
I want to flash TRWP onto my REDMI 8. However, as soon as I boot into fastboot, adb shell can't find my device anymore.
I've tried everything, installing new Fastboot drivers in Device Manager, new USB cable, other USB port, nothing works. ADB finds my phone in normal mode, but not in fastboot mode:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
Try waiting a little longer for it to register your device also make sure that usb debugging is on and that all the latest drivers for your phone are installed on your pc
Na, it won't register, it doesn't find the device.
USB debugging is on.
I've even installed the Xiaomi Tool V2, which supposedly has all the right drivers.
in fastboot mode, its fastboot devices and not adb ;P
if that also fails, try clockwork mod (cwm) universal adb drivers. worked for me for all these years including this phone
also, there are still plenty of roms available iirc, in case they dont show up for olive, you might be able to try mi439
Since you're in Windows, when you plug it in it might/should "bong".
Then you have to find out what is there and whether it has a driver.
ADB and fastboot are usually mutually exclusive.
You might try looking deeper with UsbView.exe https://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities.htm#MicrosoftUSBView
Or you could look in Device Manager C:\>devmgmt.msc
Or you could shell out >$1000 for a hardware USB protocol analyzer.
I got it to work now, thx. Starting from ADB into Fastboot didn't work, but manually booting into FB and the installing twrp did the trick.
