Hi there,
I have just purchased a Zenfone 8, the bootloader is unlocked (I have the ugly message saying that the phone can"'t be trusted because bootloader is unlocked bla bla bla at startup).
However, while adb works, I can't get fastboot to recognize my device.
I tried on W10 and 11, also on Linux Mint.
Other phones are recognized properly by fastboot, but not the zenfone 8. And of course, fastbootd doesn't work.
Anyone faced this issue?
Thanks,
Anghi

I can get into fastboot mode. Using combo key or even "adb reboot bootloader". But on this screen, then fastboot does not recognize the device
And I have tried both bootloader (in principle fastboot) and fastbootd (the one within the recovery) screens. Fastboot commands don't work under both screens.
I think to get fastboot working I had to install the Asus specific driver on my pc
Ok thanks. Let me try.
Okay, solved by trying several USB C wires.
Thanks for the advices and help!

I bought a used phone. The boot loader was unlocked from the beginning. I'm doing the steps to install Android 10, but something is weird.
I tried to go through the fastboot mode, but when I press the button, it doesn't respond, so I enter the computer through adb and there is no response, and then it returns to the system soon. When entering the boot loader mode to adb, a blue LED turns on. When I enter the recovery mode into adb, there is no reaction the same as when entering the fastboot. Also, when the power is turned off and plugged in, it automatically enters the flash mode.
When I first use the phone, the battery level is displayed when I plug it in, and it responds when I turn it on, but when I reinstall the stock rom of the same version with flashtool, nothing happens. There is no response even though I installed the 8.0 global version with the flashtool obtained from the deveploperworld homepage.
Strangely, the Android system works fine.
What should I do?

Solved the problem! If the Google USB driver does not work when recognized as other devices, try updating with the Samsung USB driver. It is recognized as a samsung adb interface and is recognized as normal in the fastboot devices command. You can install twrp in this state!

As soon as I enter fast boot mode the phone disconnects from my computer or something. I can't get it to work with the Flash Tool or without it. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm at a loss and don't know what to do.
I get this error as attached.

Yes, I have bootloader unlocked and debugging turned on.
Open your Windows Device Manager while connected in fastboot mode (Right click Windows logo -> Device Manager).
Do you see your phone in the list with an exclamation or question mark?

Try with a USB-A to C cable. Do not use the supplied C to C cable.
There is something wrong with Calyxos.
Unlocked bootloader becomes LOCKED when you try to use flash.android.com on the first reboot.
How did I get it ON the phone if it was locked? well, it wasn't and now Calyx won't unlock the boot loader (even though it says it is)
Calyx website is not working.
I don't have windows, This is F'd
Anyone able to help me get this garbage off my phone?
Hi,
I want to flash TRWP onto my REDMI 8. However, as soon as I boot into fastboot, adb shell can't find my device anymore.
I've tried everything, installing new Fastboot drivers in Device Manager, new USB cable, other USB port, nothing works. ADB finds my phone in normal mode, but not in fastboot mode:

Try waiting a little longer for it to register your device also make sure that usb debugging is on and that all the latest drivers for your phone are installed on your pc
Na, it won't register, it doesn't find the device.
USB debugging is on.
I've even installed the Xiaomi Tool V2, which supposedly has all the right drivers.
in fastboot mode, its fastboot devices and not adb ;P
if that also fails, try clockwork mod (cwm) universal adb drivers. worked for me for all these years including this phone
also, there are still plenty of roms available iirc, in case they dont show up for olive, you might be able to try mi439
Since you're in Windows, when you plug it in it might/should "bong".
Then you have to find out what is there and whether it has a driver.
ADB and fastboot are usually mutually exclusive.
You might try looking deeper with UsbView.exe https://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities.htm#MicrosoftUSBView
Or you could look in Device Manager C:\>devmgmt.msc
Or you could shell out >$1000 for a hardware USB protocol analyzer.
I got it to work now, thx. Starting from ADB into Fastboot didn't work, but manually booting into FB and the installing twrp did the trick.

I have tried things like doing this method where I have to flash the Raw rom but it didnt work because I keep on getting this
I have also triedusing the unbrick/bricked method but whenever I open the edl cmd, it keeps on closing.
I have also tried these 3 cmd fastboot commands but it didnt work
I have also tried flashing these 3 image file, (boot, recovery, and dtbo) from the unbrick/ brick xda but i keep on getting this
I have tried thses methods but it didnt work or I dont know the commands. Pls, I need help
You will be in CSC FB mode only, as long as your bootloader is locked. Unlocking your bootloader again will bring you back in the right Fastboot mode. EDL mode should work however, don't know why you have trouble with it...

Hello. I have motorola x4 Indian variant (xt1900-2). I have bootloader unlocked on my device. Few days ago I had Pixel Experience 12 running on my phone, and I tried to update it to Pixel Experience 13 using PixelExperience's own recovery through ADB Sideload. It worked but after that I tried to flash gapps using same way but it was not working. I thought TWRP recovery can install it So I flashed TWRP zip using same method in recovery's update using ADB Sideload option. Recovery got flashed.
Now, my phone is bootlooping since then after it rebooted to system after flashing twrp zip. I can access fastboot on my phone, but any command I enter in fast such as 'fastboot boot recovery.img' gets stuck forever.
Also, sometimes commands dont even work. Fastboot says unknown command. I tried using different cables on diffrent ports including 2.0, 3.0 ports, and also using c-to-c type cable but still no luck. I even tried to downgrade to Windows 10 from 11. Still same issue. I Can't boot to recovery, cant flash recovery, cant boot into OS, just fastboot is working.
