OK, just got my nexus 6 yesterday, and said goodbye to Samsung..
first, plugged my phone into my windows 10 machine, and it instantly showed up in windows explorer, and was able to see all the directories on my phone, so that was good.
I then followed the instructions for installing the ADB/Fastboot installation stuff from here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/how-to-nexus-6-one-beginners-guide-t2948481
Opened the command prompt, typed in these commands, cd Desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools
adb version, and adb version showed up just fine.
Turned off my phone, held down volume and power and entered fastboot mode, but after typing the proper commands, my phone serial number doesnt show up..
I have enabled developer mode, turned on USB debugging, enabled OEM unlock, but still no serial number shows up.
I'm not a rookie, and understand how to use ADB, but I am afraid that windows 10 is the issue..
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks for your input:good:
Mod Edit:
Solution found and thread closed at OPs request
You can't use adb in fastboot mode. You can only use fastboot in fastboot mode. Adb only works in android or recovery
thanks, I got it sorted out by installing this..

Been trying to root N1(FRG83) without unlocking bootloader. Downloaded android-sdk to c: drive and downloaded usb driver.
When I boot the N1 into fastboot mode and type fastboot from the cmd prompt on the computer it sees the phone and gives me the serial (HT****)
When I try the same thing from ADB (ADB devices) it doesn't recognize the phone. I just get a blank line and go back to the command prompt. I've tried this on 2 machines (1 Vista the other Windows 7) and get the same results.
The frustrating thing is that I actually had the phone recognized with the ADB devices command when I first set it up but got called away from the computer and never had a chance to run the rooting routine.
Anybody out there solved this problem?? All help appreciated.
Thanks.
download and install the sdks and nexus ine drivers manually.
thanks but no luck
Downloaded drivers as you suggested but no luck. Also tried reinstalling sdk. Debugging is on, Java is installed, I'm out of ideas for the moment.

Del everything...restart your pc, and download the drivers and sdk..it'll take a few more mins.
When this happened to me, I restarted my PC and it worked.

If I recall correctly, adb won't work while the phone is in fastboot mode - and that fact that your fastboot commands work fine indicates that it shouldn't be a driver issue. Make sure you're running the adb commands when your phone is actually booted (at least to recovery).
If the phone is recognized by the computer via usb, but the adb does not see the phone connected, you just may need to simply delete and reinstall the latest USB driver that is offered.
There is actually an issue with Nexus One's where the adb composite interface doesn't work. It seems related to the issue with the broadcom driver and the mac address starting with 38.
See here - http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9437 - for more info.
I have now upgraded to frg83 and it works fine.

This. If you're running ADB in fastboot, you'll get nowhere.
I've searched and searched for a solution to this, nothing is working. Really need help guys.
Phone is on stock ICS rom, PC is Win8 Pro x64. All three files are in the folder, SDK is installed (x64 version), Google USB driver installed, Java for windows installed, and HTC Sync installed but not running.
When in FASTBOOT and USB connected it shows FASTBOOT USB. Device manager shows Android Phone - Android ADB Interface. Is this correct or should it show something else in device manager?
No matter what I've tried when running fastboot oem get_identifier_token in command prompt I get waiting for device. Also running fastboot devices returns nothing.
Don't know what else to try... Seems it doesn't recognize the device but it's in device manager.
Edit: have also tried different usb ports and I know the cable works.
Edite 2: I fixed it. Took me hours to get this working but for any one struggling like I was here is what I did.
Got rid of all the drivers and started back at Android 1.0 in device manager. Manually installed the official SDK google usb driver and selected Android Bootloader Interface for Android 1.0. Also boot the phone and manually install again and select Android ADB Interface.
Here is what really caused me problems. The HTC tutorial I looked at said to take adb.exe, fastboot.exe, and adbWinApi.dll and put them in their own folder. This absolutely does not work for me even now. I used the directory straight from the SDK (sdk\platform-tools) and added fastboot.exe from a previous sdk revision into that folder. Now everything works!!! Finally!
Hi everyone!! I have the same issue as brother bassvoykevlar but the solution here expresed is not all clear to me. Can anyone please give me a hand on this, i am really mad with it . Thanks in advance.
The Best Solution
this problem has also happened with me and i found a solution to this,
this usually happens if your system lacks fastboot drivers.
ADB drivers can only Run ADB shell so that is why you need to have fastboot drivers as well to use fastboot commands.
i think you must have tried this code:
"fastboot oem unlock"
then cmd may have got stuck on "waiting for device"
don't worry install drivers for fastboot then it should work.
google it then get it.
there is 15seconds ADB,fasdtboot installer available try that.
then give it another try.
man, i am losing my mind over this now. i have no idea why my phone seems like it isn't recognized in adb fastboot. however, when i am not in fastboot it shows just fine.
before i go into fastboot mode on the phone i can use command prompt and it shows
>adb devices
List of devices attached
d858f4c6 device
i can even command the phone to go into fastboot
adb reboot bootloader - and my phone goes into fastboot
then when in fastboot:
i type fastboot devices - nothing listed
adb devices - nothing listed
what am i doing wrong here? everything seems to be fine before going into fastboot but once i am in fastboot none of the same commands work the device isn't recognized
yes, of course i have usb debugging turned on.
any ideas? i've been messing with this going on two hours now uninstalling my files and reinstalling them.
EDIT - ok it took me like 3 hours but the device needs different drivers when in fastboot but you can only fix it while its in fastboot on my machine for some reason
You can't use adb commands when in fastboot mode and vice versa.

I have same problems. Please explain how you have solved. Which drivers the Mi Mix needs in fast boot mode?
basically, you have to watch your device manager for the ANDROID to pop up and it should have a yellow exclamation. you have to fix the drivers, but the problem is at least in my case you have to complete and fix the drivers before the mix puts itselt out of fastboot and into charging (which it does quite quickly when not connected)
install this:

as soon as you have the drivers fixed windows will tell you and the mix will stay connected
I just purchased by OnePlus 3T and in the process of trying to unlock the bootloader. I have ADB while in stock oxygen os 4.0.2 but when entering fastboot to unlock the bootloader I no longer have access to the device. As per some searching I switched to a USB 2.0 port and still no luck. In device manager it shows my phone under "Other devices -> Android." I'm pretty sure i'm missing a driver for ADB, but can't figure out what is missing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Install, restart.
Specifically in folder you have adb files, hold Shift+Right Click, open command prompt.
fastboot devices to confirm connection
fastboot oem unlock to get started.
Search for the one plus 3t toolkit. It has the original one plus drivers.
Then install minimal adb and fastboot.
And it should work. If it doesn't, try on another pc.
Well it's been a while since my last new phone totally forgot to install USB drivers all good to go, newb mistake thank you!
or plug your phone into the pc and use the emulated cd drive that appears to get the drivers

After having my phone since Monday, I just now noticed that emulated drive when I had to nuke it earlier today, lol.
I'm about to convert my phone to the WW rom; but I am at an impasse. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My phone is unlocked as verified by the security message and I can get into fastboot. I have developer mode and usb debugging enabled. When the phone is on, and also when in recovery; the phone will return the serial number with the adb command. When I reboot into fastboot, the phone is no longer detected. I have tried a USB A to C cable, USB C cable, and a combination of USB C, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports on my computer. I have used both the side (blue) and bottom USB ports on the phone, but to no avail. Other odd confirmation is in the device manager my phone shows up as ROG Phone II, but under USB. I'm not sure if it is detected right; the screenshots I saw showed it detected as a device under another section in the device manager.

I had the same issue last update. Something in a windows 10 update broke fastboot detection. Use another computer with an older version of win 10 or boot a linux distro.

Try installing this version of adb/drivers
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569952951
Once installed, the adb folder in root of C contains a 'cmd here' file, makes launching a cmd even easier!

Plug your phone on side port and reboot to fastboot then use this app to fix fastboot mode
If you already plugged the USB cable to the side port and still not able to use fastboot, it is probably a Windows problem. The Android fastboot exe is not properly signed so you need to disable Windows' driver signature check before installing the ADB/Fastboot drivers.
I cannot post link but search for "android fastboot driver disable driver signature enforcement". Disable the signature check then install the fastboot drivers.
Here is the quick run-down of the steps.
1. In command console and in Admin mode, run this command and then restart => bcdedit /set testsigning on
2. Install adb and fastboot stuff
3. After successful install, in command console and in Admin mode, run this command and then restart => bcdedit /set testsigning off
For ADB/Fastboot driver, i use the one by "fawazahmed0" here in XDA. The title of the thread is [Tool] Latest ADB Fastboot and USB Driver installer tool for Windows.
Okay, I tried all of the above; fastboot is still not detected in ADB, but it is detected in Recovery and when the phone is at the home screen. I noticed the phone came up under "Samsung Smart Phone" or some such in the device manager. I uninstalled and reinstalled and now it shows up as ROGPhoneII. However, same result as before. I tried the install methods on a secondary Windows 7 machine, but with the same result.
