hello people i need some help with fixing my htc so i can boot it back to normal i installed TWRP so i could flash superuser and then when i tried to reboot it booted only into bootloader the phone is not recognized by the computer but when typeing fastboot devices in cmd it is any help?
I'm trying to get my phone back to a custom ROM after abandoning it for over a year so I am having trouble remembering what I did...
USB Debugging is definitely off. When I go into a command prompt to flash the boot.img, "adb devices" returns no devices. The drivers all seem to be up to date - so how can I flash the boot.img? I can't get into the OS as I get stuck at the white HTC logo boot - soft bricked.

I would normally recommend RUU (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562890) to revert to stock firmware and then turn on USB debugging like normal, but I'm worried that your device may still be unlocked (then RUU won't work).
Hold the phone, when you boot into the bootloader, and select "fastboot", can you flash the boot.img that way? (command prompt: "fastboot flash boot boot.img", assuming your command prompt is opened in the same folder as fastboot.exe and your boot.img)

Seems like after I updated the drivers and mounted the device, I was able to get my PC to recognize the phone through ADB devices. I went back into the fastboot and flashed the .img and it worked. Thanks for your help.
Hi, i can't get my PC to detect my phone under Fastboot with ADB so i can't do anything through there but i wan't to update my ZCX Recovery. In the installation notes it says "You can flash by either Fastboot method or TWRP methods "but what "TWRP methods" means and how to flash it?
TWRP method mean is if your phone already has TWRP recovery before and wanna change or update it..you can flash new TWRP via your current TWRP.
But anyway.. why your phone while in fastboot mode can't detected by pc.and what command you're typing to check in fastboot mode??, i mean are you sure you're already installing all driver that adb and fastboot needed..?, and are you sure you're already typing correct adb and fastboot command..?
Because recently i see someone thread that asking the same problem like this too (more or less) in en.miui.com forum too..he/she is wrong typing command while he/she's phone in fastboot mode, he/she's typing adb command while the phone is already in fastboot mode, of course adb can't recognize it.
I don't know this is you too or another person.
I rooted my Note 8 and when I'm in the TWRP bootloader, I can issue adb commands, but no fastboot command (list of devices empty). How can I get the phone into a state where fastboot works?

Samsung doesn't use fastboot!
They lock it out in favor of their Odin flash tool.
so there's no way to use fastboot commands? There goes my hope on making it boot on power connect
I've tried to boot into fastboot with command.
Fastboot reboot fastboot
To install GSI but
My phone stuck like in photo
Any help?
if you are not in fastboot how can you even tell it to reboot to fastboot? Your only way is to enter edl mode just google it
