Yes it's true , adb doesn't work well with usb 3.0 , so I'm either use a usb 2.0 port, or if you don't have it, use the one usb to multi usb hub, that converts usb 3.0 to 2.0

Well you can't open the fastboot.exe because it's not a regular program. You just open a command Window in the folder it's located in.

It looks to me like your device has a locked bootloader.
What rom did you try to flash? What did you use to flash it?

Waiting for device...
* daemon not running. starting it now in port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
And then, nothings is happens!...not show anything more....
Any suggestions?
Please hel me! :crying:
What OS was originally on the phone? Without an unlocked bootloader, I don't think you can flash an earlier rom version if the original rom version was higher.
I think those zip files needs to flashed via cwm, but I'm not 100% sure. I think that's how I got the Mexico Retail onto my Atrix HD.

I just realized that your system image says ".ext4" Fastboot does not normally format a partition as ext4 by default, maybe never at all. Make sure you have the correct Fastboot files.
Best of luck!

Just to try, flash this Fastboot package with RSD Lite 6.1. I have a feeling this will work.

You are flashing a downgraded version of the boot image. If you came from 4.1.1 and are now trying to flash a 4.0.4 boot image, it will fail. Try to flash the package in my last post

Make sure you are using the 4.1.1 fastboot package for RSD Lite. Also make sure you are using RSD Lite 6.1.

Unzip the rom zip and open .xml file and remove the line having flash partition gpt_main0.bin and save it, zip again using red, you will be able to flash now..

Can't Flash N6

Long story short, woke up with my N6 stuck at the bootloader screen and cannot do anything at it. I can only see my serial number and if I try anything else, it reloads bootloader. I am trying to flash back to a stock 6.0.1 image, however I keep getting this error while trying to do so.

I have tried Nexus Root Toolkit, tried flashing all and tried flashing each image one by one but I still get this "(bootloader) Failed to flash partition FAILED (remote failure)" on all attempts. Phone does show up if I try fastboot devices, and I have tried this on two different computers. Device is also unlocked as well, and I even tried flashing older versions of Lolipop but they all give me the same error. Drivers work fine, and I have everything up to date in terms of bootloader and Andriod SDK. I am starting to think that there is physical damage inside the phone, however I do not know how or why this occurred randomly. Any help would be awesome, as I am very new to flashing images onto my phone and frankly I am 99% sure that my warranty is out, and I really don't want to pay $175 cost .
You can try to use minimal adb and fastboot drivers, unpack for example latest npreview 5 factory Image into same folder and flash each .IMG step by step with cmd window, i always flash this way, if everything else fails.

Bootloader is unlocked i guess, may your Bootloader is messed up, did you try to flash only one Factory Image ? Corrupt Download possible ?
What happens if you try unlock command
Try to flash the latest full ota with these steps.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/ota
Since you already in the bootloader, select recovery and fpllow the steps from there.

Any image I even try to flash I get the error with, no matter what order or which one I pick. I redownloaded the image again and still nothing, so I don't think it's a corrupt download. What is the unlock command? Sorry for being a noob, never heard of it since all my knowledge is from reading tons of flashing guides on the internet lol.

Alright, I downloaded the OTA file and got the process to about 47% when suddenly I keep running into the error of "E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log" then followed by more things it can't open. I tried the OTA twice and it gets stuck on that same exact spot. I tried the wipe data/factory reset option from the recovery mode and I get a similar error of "Can't mount", "Can't open", "failed to mount" the recovery log. It seems like there is a problem with the recovery log files (or the folder) on my phone, but I have no idea what that means. I will mess around with some more and try Googling the source of error, but thank you for the help.
fastboot oem unlock
With this command you can unlock your Bootloader, better read here
first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56938530&postcount=1 , if have 47% done, may you can use twrp now. Good luck
Did you try the erase function from bootloader that may or may not help??

Oh yes, my device has already been unlocked from the start so that wasn't a problem. I still get the same error when I try to flash anything, including TWRP which means I have to install the OTA. The problem is a get a separate error when I try to install the OTA, which the only solution being to flash my device (or at least that is what most people have been saying when I googled the can't open cache recovery error) so this is a giant goose chase which leads me back to the start :/. I will keep trying however, I refuse to give up after going this far!

Should I try fastboot erase cache and then fastboot format cache? Would refresh the cache on there? I only just learned the erase command so I am not exactly sure what I should try.

I don't know the commands to erase everything from the bootloader but I would try this:
Flash latest twrp and boot into recovery.
Assuming you don't care about anything that's on the phone, go to advance wipe and wipe EVERYTHING lol... reboot into bootloader and try to flash everything from scratch. If this doesn't work, I'll guess your phone have problems.

I get the same failure error while trying to format and erase, so I am guessing something is really wrong with my phone or the bootloader is messed up beyond repair. I guess it could be the cable I am using as well, that is one thing I did not take into factor so I will try with another cable if I find a spare. Flashing might be beyond my solution at this rate though... Thanks anyways for the help.

I really should have had TWRP installed before I guess lol, but I still get the same failure error. My phone has more problems than a teenager going through puberty I swear, thanks for the help though.
Yes try another cable, if it stops at 47%, the Bootloader should be replaced. May try everything without simcard, don't ask me why, i read something similiar in a Moto forum

I tried it with another wire and nothing changed, and then I tried taking out my sim card and trying it.... and it worked! It flashed everything normally and loaded up just fine. I don't know whether I should be furious or happy but thank you and everyone who helped. Who would have known just taking out the sim card could have saved me 2+ days of stressing and trail and error. Once again thanks, you really saved me lol.
You're welcome, nice your phone works again !
Don't forget to activate oem unlock and debugging in the Developer options, and flash twrp, so maybe more save for upcoming problems

Help with OP7P only Fastboot accessible

Hi all, hope you're doing fine.
I came here looking for help since I seem to have bricked my One Plus 7 Pro.
I was root user with unlocked bootloader and installed OOS 11 OTA through OonePlus' updater app, then tried to flash magisk using it's same app but since I'm a little bit un-updated about how it works and couldn't get it to flash I went into recovery just to find out the stock recovery.
Confused I wipped out ADB and tried flashing TWRP. I now know that my problem was not using the correct version of TWRP for A11 but during the attept at flashing TWRP something went wrong (I remeber doing something with the partition where I flashed the recovery.img but cant precise what, was late in the night) and the phone doesn't boot up to OS or recovery, I can just get into fastboot mode.
I can access fastboot and the bootloader is still marked as unlocked. I started reading how to install a clean image of OOS11 form this state and found this guide: LINK
I went all the way up to having the filles from the .bin unpacked and when I try to flash one by one the archives I get the error:

I've also tried to use one of those "flash all .bat" roms I saw here on the forums but that didn't work, I'm also trying to use the MSNtool but to be quite frank the tutorials I've found so far are not noob friendly, since I can't seem to get the correct drivers isntalled and the phone properly recognized ( as it is now it shows as "QUSB_BULK_CID:0404_SN:36EDE735" ).
So that's my current state:
I can enter fastboot with suppousedly unlocked bootloader but cant seem to flash things
Can't seem to get the support files/drivers for the MSN method
I would greatly apprciate help getting back into ANY version of OOS working since as it is now the phone's paperweight. If directed to comprehensible guides I beieve I can keep going, I don't mind with wich method.
Thanks in advance and please excuse the inconveniences,
LUCAS
PS: Mod please feel free to move this thread to a more appropiate board if you think I didn't choose the right one
I feel you, i hate the MSMTool. I won't use it unless i absolutely HAVE TO.
Download Mauronofrios All in one tool. You can find that here on xda.
As long as you are able to get into fastboot, that tool will help you.
Good luck

Question Bootloader unlocked, tried to flash TWRP, error

Hey whatsup. I recently decided to unlock my bootloader again. Worked flawless. However, Ive used this
Tutorial as always to flash TWRP(Update on first comment actually) and it always worked. However I encountered an error using the ADB fastboot method.
Sending 'boot.img' (131072 KB) OKAY [ 2.812s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Not Found')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Looks like this...this is new for me. And now Im stuck in fastboot mode and cant restart my phone, neither turn it off in any way.
Any solution?
Nevermind...it was my fault. I flashed a new rom through Xiaomi Flash Tool V2. Just worked through MiiManager. And when I looked through my folder Ive seen it: TWRP 3.5.2 "mojito". Ive used the wrong TWRP. Mines for sweet devices.
Regards

Question Stuck in Fastboot after TWRP Wide data (unlocked bootloader)

Hello guys!
I am having issues with the battery (I think it's faulty) and I just wanted to reflash the EU MIUI Stable ROM to see if it's a software problem.
Currently with unlocked bootloader (no root) EU MIUI 13 STABLE and Android 12.
What I did:
didn't remember if I had TWRP installed and flashed EU MIUI 13 STABLE via Fastboot
MIUI 13 - MIUI 13 STABLE RELEASE
Status: RELEASED RULES WHEN POSTING 1. If a ROM is not published DONT ASK ABOUT ITS ETA 2. If a ROM is not published DONT ASK why! 3. If a ROM is available, download it and use it 4. If a ROM has bugs, post the bug to the bug section if the BUG is not already listed 5. If you use any form of...
xiaomi.eu
linux_fastboot_update_rom.sh was successful
but now stuck in MIUI Recovery mode after every boot
I guess I had TWRP installed and this is why it got issues?
So I decided to fix it by installing TWRP first, and then flash ROM via TWRP:
found official TWRP for Mi 11 here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-11-official-teamwin-recovery-project.4374109/
installed this via fastboot: fastboot boot twrp-3.6.2_11-0-venus.img
did "Advanced > Flash Current TWRP"
stuck in TWRP Recovery mode boot
did TWRP Wipe data (since required by installing the ROM)
stuck in Fastboot mode
it might have removed by mistake /system or /persist, I just did the default Wipe Data of TWRP
Device is correctly recognized with fastboot devices but I get this error when trying to boot with TWRP:
Code:
$ fastboot boot twrp-3.6.2_11-0-venus.img
Sending 'boot.img' (196608 KB) OKAY [ 4.999s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Do you guys have any tip to recover the device? Any help very much appreciated

Seems you use a A11 TWRP for a A12 rom
Use A12 https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=321497

Thank you very much! I've run the "first install" script and managed to recover the phone!
Would PM me your PayPal? I'd like to get you a coffee
