[Q] Can't access fastboot and flash my radio - [SOLVED] - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a really strange problem here. I've flashed my radio in the past using fastboot. My config hasn't changed.
When I go into the android sdk and run adb devices. I get one device.
When I go to run any fastboot command it hangs at 'waiting for device'
When I put fastboot devices, nothing comes up.
I'd appreciate any help

Hi DarkShadowAy
You plug in the device and go to fastboot?
If yes, then try going into fastboot FIRST. Then only plug in your cable. You will see Fastboot change to Fastboot USB.
From there, flash your desired radio version.

Hi superstick,
I typed in:
PHP:
fastboot flash radio radio.img
Got the prompt 'waiting for device' and I then plugged in the USB. Nothing changed unfortunately.

Just to make sure, did you boot into the bootloader and does it show "FASTBOOT USB"?

Yes that error mostly means that you haven't selected the fastboot option in the bootloader. You have to select the fastboot option before flashing.

I'll take the noob award of 2011 please.
I was baffled as I was in fastboot. When you posted that I thought why doesn't it say USB? It doesn't say USB because the cable wasn't plugged in
My desk's quite messy and I didn't realise the ipod data cable was in.
Thanks

Mac OS X Fastboot Mode <Waiting for Device>

Hi, I am trying to Re-Lock my Galaxy Nexus GSM version, I've downloaded the SDK files (adb-mac and fastboot-mac) and all the image files and I am trying to execute the following commands:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-toro-primekk15.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-toro-i515.ek02.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio-cdma radio-cdma-toro-i515.ek05.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot -w update image-mysid-icl53f.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem lock
With the phone in normal mode I connect the USB cable to the computer, start Terminal windows and run the first command, "./adb-mac reboot bootloader" and the phone will boot into the "Fastboot Mode", then I try to execute "./fastboot-mac devices" to make sure the phone is connected and properly detected and I get nothing.
If I try to execute "./fastboot-mac flash bootloader bootloader-toro-primekk15.img" I get the message <waiting for device> and it will stay there forever.
Do you know what might be the problem ?, is there other method to do this ?, go back to Stock ROM and Re-Lock the device ?, thanks
i use windows but i also get problems when i didnt had a break after the flash parts/ update parts

I know nothing about using Macs but have you installed the device drivers? As you are getting no serial number returned when using fastboot devices im guessing not.
Mark.
On a side note please do not post questions in the Development Forums as that is not the place for them.
Thanks.
The device is being detected while running in normal mode, meaning I do have the drivers, the problem is when I go into FASTBOOT MODE, I can no longer see the phone

But for the simple command ./fastboot-mac devices should work and it's not
in bootloader mode u need other drivers
but dont know how to install them on mac
First thing, make sure your fastboot file is executable
from the folder containing fastboot-mac:
chmod a+x fastboot-mac
You do not need further drivers on a mac. Just make sure you are using the correct fast boot and have all of the images in the same folder. Try using a different USB port. I renamed my fastboot file to fastboot and copied it into usr/local/bin folder so it can be accessed without the ./ ...Hope this helps...I actually just got done restoring mine because its gotta go back to the store because the internal storage is all sorts of jacked up...Since you clearly have a mac, have you had any issues using android file transfer?

I just checked and Fastboot is executable, as a matter of fact it's running, the problem is that the phone cannot be seen from the FASTBOOT mode, and I can see from the phone screen that IT IS in Fastboot Mode, it says in RED letters "FASTBOOT MODE"

Well reboot your phone. Once up, try and boot into boot loader the manual way by powering off the device, holding both vol + and -, and press power... then try your fastboot commands. Are you rooted or no?

I've done that, going into FASTBOOT MODE manually and the same result. Yes I am rooted.
I just want to go back to stock and re-lock the phone, is there other way to accomplish that ?
NOTE: I've tried Mac and PC (Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit 1.3), different USB cables, different USB ports, reinstalled all the drivers on the Windows computer, NOTHING, the phone it's not being detected in FASTBOOT MODE.
Is it possible to go back to stock and re-lock from the Recovery Mode ?, I have ClockWorkMode 5.5.0.2 installed and working fine.
You can flash a Stock Rom via cwm but you can only relock the phone via fastboot mode.
Has this problem only surfaced recently?
You say that you are rooted and have cwm flashed so how did you do that?
Do you have another usb cable that you can try?

I used FASTBOOT to unlock and Root, no problem at all, use the phone for 10 days and them decided to go back to Stock and Re-Lock. If I connect the phone in normal operating mode to the computer it will be recognized and I can see the phone from the computer connected via USB, so the cabe, port on the phone and port on the computer are OK. I've tried different computer (Mac and PC), different OS (Mac OS X and Windows 7), different USB cable, different USB port.
Just make sure USB debugging is on...try getting on a PC and running the ODIN file from someone was kind enough to post us...to get into odin mode, just hold up while the phone is off and hit power. You need the drivers installed and the latest version of ODIN on your desktop as well.

Plug your phone in and then turn it off...download the odin file from xda...not sure who posted it...it will be a 7z file...inside there are two separate .tar files. Extract these from the .7z file but do not fully unzip them.

Factory cable questions

Hi, I recently bought a factory cable because my Kindle is bricked. I'm stuck at the kindle fire logo with no adb shell and fastboot says "waiting for device". I got in this situation by doing a wipe from twrp and then flashing the stock recovery (dumb, I know).
Anyway, with a regular cable I can do basic adb commands (adb reboot, etc).
With the factory cable my kindle isn't showing up under adb devices. Windows recognizes it and it shows up in the device manager. I've already re-installed the drivers and everything.
Here's an outline of what happens when I plug in the factory cable. This is starting with the kindle off.
Kindle turns on and goes tot he kindle fire logo and freezes. The power button is green with the factory cable. I noticed that with the normal cable it's orange. I'm not sure if this has any relevance at all.
Anyway, I'm wondering what I can do to get my kindle to show up in adb while using the factory cable.
If you need more info from me let me know and I'll add it.
A factory cable puts the device in fastboot mode, therefore will only accept fastboot commands.

I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but fastboot commands aren't working either. It's not showing up under fastboot devices and fastboot flash recovery hangs at "waiting for device".

The second post is about device drivers and what to look for in the device manager when your device is in fastboot mode.
It's also possible that you aren't including the vendor ID in your fastboot command. That's covered in the third post.

I can see my phone and the order under Windows but i can not control my phone with the fastboot command. (example: fastboot device. the answere ist searching devices, but it comes no resolution) I loaded the last version of Fastboot, but the problem is the same.
Please can you help me. What can i do? Many thanks for your help!

Sorry for my question, what´s the differents about adb and fastboot tool? I have install the last version of minimal adb and the fastboot tool, also the Windows driver for the phone. Debugging is on. I try to connect my phone about the fastboot terminal. When i try to set the phone into the bootloader mod with the fastboot terminal and the equivalent command, fastboot say´s "searching phone". My phone does not react.

So, you connect your phone, open minimal adb and fastboot too, run "adb devices", you see device id? If yes, run "adb reboot bootloader" . Phone shoult reboot to fastboot mode. Then run "fastboot devices" to see if it is connected properely.
i did it, like you described, but i see not my device id. Only the note "seach device"
Is it possible that TWRP is defect on my device? Is TWRP necessary for fastboot or only for root?

No, you should be able to use adb and fastboot with stock recovery.
After first adb command you shoult approve authorization on your phone.
Here is screenshot from minimal adb...
Phone must be in MTP mode.
And here is phone in fastboot
Many thanks for your help, now I m in my bootloader.
2 problems i had.
1. My daemon was not started correctly, i have not seen my device.
2. I used the wrong command. I started with fastboot, not with the command adb device. I tap „fastboot reboot-bootloader“,but the correct command is “adb reboot-bootlader“
Now i have seen my phone is unlocked, i hope i can root my android 6.

problem with fastboot twrp flashing

my device came with unlocked bootloader, so I tried to flash twrp but every time i type "fastboot flash recovery C:\adb\twrp-3.2.1-3-whyred.img" and hit enter, the device seems to disconnect from pc and there is "press any key to reboot" in fastboot on my phone.
How can I solve this issue?`
Phone gets detected by adb/fastboot tool so its not a driver problem. I tried different cables and usb ports aswell.
Firmware is latest global stable.

Well if you already had adb in your pc, rename the twrp file to recovery, you don't have to move the twrp from download folder, open download folder press shift and right click then select open cmd here, on cmd type "adb device" to see if your device connected, then after that type this "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" press enter than after that type "fastboot boot recovery.img" TEAMWIN logo should appear on your device and then you can unplug your device. Hope this useful
i am trying to flash twrp there is no folder called adb i have installed the 15 second adb and all so i have got this minimal adb flashboot and i tried with that and got this ---- FAILED (remote: Flashing is not allowed in Lock State). i have granted all usb and oem unlocking. please help with this
Phone shows unlocked during the boot?
I had the same Problem,after a Factory Reset works for me.
I am on Miglobe-Rom Miui10 8.6.28.
Minimal ADB is enough.
Or use this from Attachment.
Unpack with Win.zip and copy Twrp in this Folder.
Conect the Phone with your Pc ,boot into Bootloader and click "cmd-here.exe"
Use this Command
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-3-whyred.img
@Nazukii - Quick question - any chance you could try running GameBench on your device, and see if our background service dies when the device is disconnected from the PC? I don't have a Note 5 Pro to test, and I've got some user complaints. Any assistance would be awesome!

ADB and fastboot cannot detect the phone

Hello, I have two unlocked Pixel 2XL, one works without a problem, it is detected by adb and fastboot. The second one during boot has bootloop. When I try to turn it into fastboot mode, the screen of this mode is shown, but after connecting the cable (which works on the first fully working phone) and entering the command "fastboot devices" nothing happens. In device manager I only have 'device not detected or working incorrectly (code 43 or sometimes code 10). When trying to enter TWRP, the phone completely stutters and displays only the TWRP start screen without any other symptoms. I have good drivers installed because the computer detects this working phone without a problem ... Do I have a damaged USB port on the phone? Is there another explanation and solution for this?

Most likely the culprit is either out of date platform-tools or TWRP...
What version of adb, fastboot, & TWRP are you using? Also, how are you booting TWRP -- there have been many cases where people would use the command "fastboot flash boot twrp.img" instead of booting temporarily...
Hope this ends up being helpful as that means it resolves it...
Are you able to fastboot boot the latest twrp.img?

This might sound crazy, but, at least try another USB A to C cable, and other ports on your pc. The P2XL is notorious for being finicky when it comes to cables and ports. What might work for one phone, doesn't necessarily mean it will for the other. Make sure it's a 2.0 USB cable as well :good:
I checked four different cables and all ports on my computer and still not lucky... I even checked on another computer and still the same

Then it's likely a hardware/port issue would be my guess.
Meh, so I will look for a workshop nearby that will exchange the port for me and check later
I would also suggest that you re-download EVERYTHING...
You may be stuck with a "buggy" TWRP image file or platform tools....and/or go against conventional thinking and download and try an older version of TWRP to see if it does it at that point as well...
In either case, hopefully you get it figured out and good luck to you...hope this ends up being helpful!
There were a number of Pixel 2 XL's that did suffer from charging port issues, including my original. Luckily I was still under warranty and was issued a replacement. The phones would charge fine but data did not transfer as with adb/fastboot, nor would Android Auto work.

Based on your error, I'm guessing all the files in the Full Factory .zip file (all 6 of them) aren’t residing there with the adb & fastboot .exe files within the platform-tools folder. Make sure you’re seeing those 6 files (you will have a two .sh files, two .img files, one .zip file, etc.) with the .exe adb & fastboot file.
Then, also make sure that you are directing your powershell or command prompt to the correct “platform-tools” folder, because many other people seem to have multiple “platform-tools” folders and they end up directing to a wrong folder…
Hope this ends up being helpful…
I fixed it! The error in fastboot mode probably came from a file that I extracted from winrar, when I downloaded the factory image again and extracted the files this time through 7zip and copied them to the platform-tools folder and double-clicked flash-all.bat fastboot started and the installation was successful! Thanks to everyone who wanted to help me solve this problem <3
ps. btw, I haven't replaced this broken port on the phone... just started working again...
