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
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?
Mark.

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. Place the one without LTE in the name in PDA and the one with LTE in phone, turn your phone on while holding vol -... there is a box that turns yellow in odin once your phone is connected. then check your screen against the one posted where you get the odin full restore file from and verify it matches, then flash it...

-fastboot package: http://www.multiupload.com/BMJ24IL6XY

Download the drivers from the post above. When installed, plug your phone cable into the computer (don't plug in the phone yet!). Hold the search key, and now plug the cable into your phone. The notification light should be blue. When it is, you can release the search key.

Oke and you can mount the sdcard as a mass storage device within the recovery ?
And what connection did exactly lost then. The fastboot usb connection for flashing boot.img files ?

CWM is outdated. Download this one: http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
And flash like this:
"fastboot flash recovery filename.img"
Phone in fastboot mode of course.
And as far the fastboot usb connection, try to re-install HTC drivers and check that the device is recognized by the pc. Then put the phone in the bootloader again and try the command
Fastboot devices
Hopefully it brings back the serial
Or you may need to update the java sdk platform tools

If the serial comes up you are good to go and flash ....did you try the idea i gave in my previous post ?
That Worked phone is up and running again.
Thanks for all your help you may have saved my life. The other half would have killed me if I suddenly went and got a new phone.
Nice ! Glad it worked
Im sorry if this has been answered so many times but ive spent about 4 hours looking around and i couldnt understand half of the solutions that were out there. My problem is that i attempted to root my htc one x and i succeeded. Then i tried to put the new jellybean 4.2.2 cyanogen10.1 mod nightlies or something like that. This failed terribly. I have no back ups or anything what so ever. I dont care about anything i may have lost, i only want to get the phone working again. I know i should have researched this further before trying, but yeah... if anybody has done the same thing and solved there matter i'd be so grateful. it still responds on fastboot. heres some info on the bootloader screen. I tried factory resetting it, clearing the cache...none worked.

yes however i only did the fastboot erase cache once not after the the second command. Also i wiped all the date on recovery mode. should i try the commands above again? sorry if im being a pain
Best to do is :
Full wipe in the recovery ! Then install the CM10.1 rom and directly the GAPPS. don't reboot but type in the command window
Adb reboot bootloader
Then flash the boot.img and reboot

Hi, same problem here..
my phone got stuck on the startup screen (HTC quietly brilliant). But my case is different because im a total noob, newly registered here. I bought my htc one x that is already in CM10 jellybean mode. last night i got a notification for cm10 update, I just click it without thinking much (cause im a noob) then after rebooting it just freezes... I hope senior members here can help me, i reallly dont want to lose my data..
You probably updated to CM10.1. You need to take the update's boot.img and flash it in fastboot.

You place the boot.img file from the CM10 rom.zip (its inside) in the fastboot folder on the pc, then you put the phone in the bootloader
Open the command window in the fastboot folder(point in the fastboot folder hold down shift + right mouse button- open command window here) and type
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Does it usually took a long time for every command to complete? im entering fastboot erase cache and <waiting for device> appear and its still there right now..
just to be sure, the bootloader mode is when the HBOOT is highlighted blue am i right?
oh i hate myself..
It should say
Fastboot usb in red text above that
In bootloader you should highlight fastboot using volume keys and press power. Then fastboot mode should be engaged and FASTBOOT USB text visible.

Do you have HTC syncmanager installed on the pc ? Uninstall it but leave the drivers when asked !
Reboot the pc and the bootloader....check again.
And you should have a myhtc in the device manager when the phone is plugged in the pc
