[SOLVED] Running a Fastboot Command restarts the phone instantly - Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers

Hey there, i was trying to put Android 11 on my Razer Phone 2. I got Fastboot and ADB running and the device when in bootloader is installed on windows as android bootloader interface.
But here's my problem: I want to flash the system and as soon as i run fastboot flash system "system.img" it halts and never starts.

The very first thing I recommend you to do, is to download the right recovery and install it via command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.zip
Let me know if you run into any further troubles.

Hi,
Frist in boot loader check your OS version it should be something like 2.19.401.2 or lower than this.
NB: ALWAYS TRY WITH MORE THAN 75% BATTERY, AND THAT FOR ANY CODE TO WORK PROPERLY, MAKE SURE TO SELECT FASTBOOT BY POWER KEY IN BOOTLOADER
Anyway, if you can enter fastboot, then you have some chance of recovering your device and because you have S-Off it is going to be a bit difficult.
First download this stock boot file : https://mega.nz/#!lEAVwRSL!wrP2hi6GEYLeJaPf2ssZo9wCtSi7E4yfyUHgh3Q3XSs
Then place this file in the ADB folder, then run command :
To flash boot file command is:
Code:
- Fastboot Devices (this command is important to know if the device is connected and accepting and responding commands)
- fastboot flash boot boot_signed.mg (assuming this is the name you saved the file with)
- fastboot reboot bootloader
Also download Stock Recovery: https://mega.nz/#!gVJE1Bxa!6SwXStAD8p-XlnQiPkRcdNo_ITFD1ykn-tN6wIBVi1I
Place this in ADB folder and run command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery stockrec.img // (assuming that is the name you have saved the file with), only after flashing this you will know if the device has any OS, if OS exists it will boot up.
fastboot erase cache
Attempt and let us know how it went...Good Luck

Urbane 1st gen bootloop when start into bootloader it wont show in adb devices on PC.

Hello, first off all I will thank all the help you can provide,
My problem, My urbane was running AW 2.0 but it made it laggy I unlock the bootloader and flash it with the 4 cores boot.img from this thread (I did not root or install twrp) then I realize OTA wont get into my urbane so I flash the stock boot.img from the same thread above, then uptade via OTA, all fife until here.
Then I try to reload the 4cores boot.img and my problems started. after this the watch wont start anymore and stay boot animation. but was responsive to adb reboot bootloader commands so I then flash stock boot.img but also didnt boot (even waiting over 20 mins) then as I had img files (BOOT, RECOVERY and SYSTEM to restore it to original AW v1.5 i tried flashing that boot.img from this thread the MM-boot.img flashed didnt help either. then I pressed the button for 20 secs and watch reload and even when it sounds how to is detected as USB on my computer and it is shown as "Android Bootloader Interface" on the device manager it never ever is shown under adb devices command. whatever I do it does not shown under devices attached so I can flash back factory boot, recovery and system images.
So if I start the watch stays forever on the boot animation, and if I swipe my finger at start to boot into bootloader is detected by windows as "Android Bootloader Interface" but "adb devices" command wont show the watch.
Help Please!!!!
Ale.
If manually start my device in bootloader it is detected by windows device manager, but when I type "adb devices" have nothing but if I set manually to bootloader then to recovery mode and then I select apply update from ADB, then watch is again detected by device manager, in this case and ONLY this case adb devices shows my watch but only as sideload ("my serial number" sideload) what can I do there? I cant use fastboot commands.
The things is that I think I wipe data and factory reset the watch and now I dont have adb debugging enable and cant so fastboot commands what can I do, please? is tehre a way to enable adb debugging without being able to boot the watch? can I sideload (as is the only way adb see my watch) the full "NXH19X_full_factory.zip" I tried "adb sideload NXH19X_full_factory.zip" but strat to write into the watch but gives error 21 and close after few seconds.
Please Help.
Ale.
**UPDATE**
Even when adb devices wont show my watch I was still able to flash factory images and is all working now.
This issue is over, close thread please and thanks.
I'm expecting the same simptoms and issues over here. All happens after to flash the 4 core img. Sudelly stucks. Please let me know if you have any news about

ADB fastboot

Has anyone tried using adb fastboot on Samsung Galaxy Note 8 recently.
I have tried unsuccessfully to get the fastboot work using Windows and Macbook with the latest Samsung Samsung drivers for fastboot. Even installed the fastboot drivers from Android Development platform but still no luck beyond <waiting for device>.
I read on another forum that Samsung no longer allows fastboot to work with their devices. Is it correct?
Fastboot as I understand it is an extension of Android recovery.
If you have USB Debugging enabled on your device, you should be able to issue commands: adb reboot fastboot
Fastboot commands also work in bootloader.
@V0latyle
Thanks for your reply.
I have USB debugging enabled alongwith the unlocked bootloader, as my device is rooted.
Recently, I was trying to use adb fastboot to flash boot image file of my Samsung device. However, it kept displaying <waiting for device> .
I tried the same command from my MacBook using Android platform tools, but result was still the same.
All adb commands work very well on Windows and MacBook without any hiccups.

The appropriate command to flash /boot would be:
Code:
fastboot flash boot <boot image>

Question [Fixed] ASUS logo stucks on recovery, only access to bootloader

Hi all,
I'm encountering a very annoying issue with my brand new Zenfone 8.
I wanted to install the last LineageOS image, but now my phone seems stuck.
Here are what I did:
- Unlocked the bootloader: success with the ASUS APK after a few tries (error 11000 and 11006 ans eventually worked).
- Rebooted to bootloader
- Entered into recovery
- Used fastboot to flash the vendor partition.
At this point, everything looked OK. But then.... :
- Powered off the phone and restarted to bootloader.
- Tried to enter into recovery to flash the Lineage Recovery
But at this point, I had a ASUS logo stucked on the screen.
I can't do anything with adb or fastboot commands.
I tried the method explained here (https://www.asus.com/Content/Android-13-Beta/) to rollback to stock Android 12, but nothing happened too: I looked at the shell script (I'm on Linux) and I reckon that it stucks on fastboot command (the phone is in the bootloader).
Any idea about what failed? The last command used (vendor partition flash) said "OKAY".
And especially, what can I do now? Any way to reinstall the ASUS recovery?
Thanks in advance guys.
Not quite sure what your status is if you say "can't do anything with adb or fastboot commands". I've flashed Zenfones a couple of times (my household has 3 Zenfone 8's on LineageOS) and I had one that went into ramdump. I recovered from that using fastboot to manually reflash all 19 firmware partitions, in both slots. That got the phone out of ramdump, and I got to continue the upgrade to the new LineageOS. So: if you can boot to the fastboot environment, then that would be a road that might leaed you out. But if you can't even get a response to the command "fastboot devices" then I don't know of a course of action for you.
To use fastboot commands I had to run the phone into bootloader mode, then to "recovery" and eventually "fastboot" (I'm note 100% sure but it's what I remembered).
Without that, I was unable to use any fastboot commands like device or flash.
And now the issue is that I'm not able to go to recovery/fastboot again, because I have just the ASUS logo and nothing else.
It looks like that the stock recovery was dead, but I don't know why - and I don't know how to fix/reset it.
From the bootloader you should be able to flash the raw image again, it should flash everything

Good to know - but with which commands/tools?
As I said, I was unable to use fastboot commands from my computer on the Zenfone bootloader.
On the bootloader page, I just have "waiting for devices" and noting else. I had to go into the recovery > fastboot to make the commands work.

On Linux and maybe macs too you need to run fastboot commands as Root (sudo fastboot devices) for example. The raw image script should ask you for your Root password for this reason
Yes I know - I well used sudo for all commands.
The ASUS script asks me for password but then does absolutely nothing - not even a print. I waited a few minutes and finally canceled.
For you, fastboot commands should work on the bootloader screen? (I ask that because the script starts by a fastboot command).

Yes, they work from the bootloader, I always run the script from the BL too. Ironically, I had issues running fastboot commands from fastbootd for installing Omnirom, so I did it all in the bootloader and all worked fine.
I am not sure I can help you more at this point, it looks like it maybe got interrupted mid flashing and now something is wrong somewhere. Maybe if you look inside the bash script file you can find the command that it got stuck on and run that manually if you manage to get fastboot command access.
Strange - they have never worked from the bootloader. I tried that before according to the LineageOS wiki. I thought it was a mistake and use the recovery > fastboot to do that. I dont like that - I hope it's not a local version of the Zenfone or something like that.
I'm not at home tonight but yes I'll try to find commands not requiering the fastboot command.
Unfortunately all commands from the script are using fastboot. And as "fastboot devices" sees nothing, I can't do anything.
I've tried from the bootloader screen (with start, recovery, poweroff option) - from the start screen showing unlocked bootloader warning and from the ASUS logo when I try to start the recovery. I've tried the commands/scripts with Linux and Windows: same result.
So :
- I can't use any fastboot commands.
- I don't have the ASUS recovery.
Speaking of the ASUS recovery, I've found screenshots on internet and they don't have a "fastboot" submenu (I'm not sure it's a Zenfone 8). May had I a different version?
I don't like that. If I don't have others option, I guess that the warranty doesn't work because the phone is unlocked?
I eventually found a solution! I've tried with my old OnePlus cable and fastboot commands start working from the bootloader screen.
I have no idea why my other cable was faulty (it can charge the phone and executes commands from the Recovery > Fastboot menu - but not on the BL screen).
Anyway my problem is now fixed.
Thanks all for help and support.

Question [Resolved] No connection with pc in fastboot mode.

Hello all, I'm trying to install a new ROM but one of the first steps consists in getting access to adb and fastboot mode.
Unfortunately, I can easily access to adb mode, and adb commands respond well, but when I then go in fastbood mode 'adb reboot fastboot", My phone goes to fastboot with the icon on the screen, but won't answer to any fastboot commands.
I've tried to install adb drivers, uninstall/reinstall the drivers (but it's always the windows drivers that installs first). I even tried to install google usb drivers using SDK manager, but didn't succeed this step.
I've tried to change the usb cable, but with another one, it was worse: even the adb commands would not work. So I guess the one I'm using is ok.
I'd be very happy if someone could help me fixing this frustrating bug!

For fastboot try:
adb devices
........... (here you must see a number)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
........... (here you must see that number again)
Hi, thanks for trying to help me:
you're right , first is the unlock, but it's done. it's even in "grey" on the screen and written: bootloader is already unlocked. I've tested my phone with "root checker" and test is ok.
you're right about the command, this is the one I've used to go to fastmode and actually this command works: as I said, when in adb mode, it's all good: my phone is connected to pc and accepts the adb commands. But once I switch to fastboot, this is when it's going wrong: my phone's not answering to any commands.
To be more precise: when prompting: adb devices: i get a number. When prompting, in fastbood mode, fastboot devices: i get nothing.
Alleluia!!
Finally found out how to fix it!
After going in fasboot mode with the command: adb reboot bootloader, i opened the windows device manager: There I found a android XXx interface, or something like this: anyway, something barely identified by windows. Right clik, update drivers, manually update, pointing to the folder I store the google usb drivers and : Bingo! It works like a treat.
I now can step further in the process... Hope I won't need to come back with another question in the next minutes!
