My bootloader is locked and I was trying to bump up to 4.4.4
Problem is I have to flash my kernel manually via fastboot and my computer isn't recognizing my X in fb mode. I've done manual flashes on Windows 8 before but its been a while since flashing and my laptop is up to 8.1 now.
So my questions: Do the fastboot drivers for the X not work properly on 8.1 and if there are new ones where can I get them?
I've already been to the moto site to download the Motorola Device Manager but it still doesn't fix my problem. Without the kernel the phone boots but its all kinds of buggy. Luckily I was able to Nand back to 4.4.2 and everything is stable.If you can help me that would be greatly appreciated... And if not then I'll just have to wait on Sunshine.
If your bootloader is locked how did you change from your stock kernel?

Sorry if that was not the answer you were looking for. I was trying to figure out what you did. Making sure you did not try and downgrade your bootloader. If you need to flash your kernel and your PC won't recognize your device why not use flashify app or similar to flash it without a PC?

I'm pretty sure you can't flash a stock kernel onto a locked bootloader device without using fastboot to do it. I haven't tried it but I'm also not trying to risk it. I was just wondering if the fastboot drivers were compatible with Windows 8.1 is all.

i got the fastboot working on retail unlocked bootloader version of GalaxyTab 10.1
the issue i found.
on fastboot mode. it can't show bootloader version. it show Unknown. beside that. everything works.
backup.bat is for backup your stock bootloader
ioboot.bat will replace your stock to io version bootloader
stock.bat will restore your stock bootloader
before run all those script. you have to put your GalaxyTab 10.1 to apx mode first.

Does this mean the unlocked retail tab can have access to the fastboot and recovery console using the power + vol down combo just like io ?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
yes. you will have option for fastboot or recovery. i got fastboot, recovery, odin and apx on my 10.1 now
I guess my question is what's the difference between the fastboot option here and the regualr CWM recovery that was provided in earlier threads?

Just make sure you get the HTC One recovery and not the N4.. based on your lack of knowledge, based on your multiple questions, I would hold off a bit though.. as far as I know there isn't a confirmation as to if the recovery from the normal One is compatible with the GE One. I could be wrong though

You don't need to wipe for a recovery. When you get the device and its good to go, go into fastboot and type
"fastboot oem unlock"
Then after you unlock it reboot into the stock recovery and do a factory reset.. then hold off for recovery. Once your unlocked you no longer are required to wipe for anything

Rooted using a combination of instructions. Pleased to say it worked. Only problem I have had so far is that on one occasion it told me I was not rooted, when in fact I was. A reboot fixed that problem.

Hey guys, I was just wondering if anybody could help me with my bricked Nexus. I tried everything in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/fix-fix-qhusbbulk-cm12-t3059518 I could not get the blank-flash.bat to work. Here's the error I get when running it: Target ERROR: 7 - Open multi failed, unknown error
FAILED (sdl-transfer-image:send-image:sdl-open-multi:target error)
I attached a picture below of the cmd window.
If anybody could help me get past this error and help my Nexus come back to life, it would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

fastboot is a program that you run on a computer, and you have to be in your bootloader to use it. you have to install it onto your computer, and you have to have the android driver installed as well, or fastboot wont see yoir phone. you cant "flash fastboot back".

There is no screen whatsoever. Just blank. Phone shows up on PC as QHUSB__BULK, but after installing Qualcomm usb drivers it shows up as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3). I'm stuck there as the unbrick tool does not work for me.

What all did you flash to try to go back to 5.0? You should never try to downgrade the bootloader (motoboot.img) or the partition table (gpt.bin).

Hello guys I'm trying to upgrade my TWRP as it's currently on v2.6.3.3. I have accidentally wiped the OS on my HTC M7 Unlocked UK model. I have been using ADB to push the files to the SD Card. I've already pushed the image file into the phone but I'm not sure how to install it like the zip files.
I've already tried installing ROM but I've had no luck stays stuck on HTC logo, I've even tried Nandroid 6.01 but the home screen wouldn't respond to touch.
My HTC has S-ON as I was unable to turn it off.
What are my options?
Thanks
