[Q] Unrecognized Device only in hboot/fastboot - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Let me say beforehand that I am a lifetime lurker. I would not be posting here if I hadn't already spent at least two days scouring the web for an answer.
My HTC Desire HD cannot connect to HTC Sync, but it can connect as a storage device, and can be seen by adb. Whenever it connects while in hboot/fastboot, it will flicker "USB" a few times before Windows tell me it's not recognized (Device failed enumeration code 43). This includes using the RUU wizard from HTC. That will just make it stick on "RUU" in the bootloader.
I have tried every driver download suggested on this site. I have switched USB cables three times (all htc cables). I have used two seperate computers (Windows 8 and Windows 8.1).
I'll admit I'm a nooby specifically to Androids. All I want to do is flash new ROMs/root my device. As far as I know this is step one, and I can't go any further until I've unlocked my bootloader.
EDIT: SOLVED
HTC Desire HD drivers really hates Windows 8 and 8.1. Installed Windows 7 32-bit and it worked just fine.

That error can be a pain in the ass. I have it as well. I believe disabling griver signature enforcement in win8 (it's your OS, isn't it?) should allow installing adb drivers, but I was too lazy to check it. As a workaround I instead flash the boot.img in bootloader by putting it to PD98IMG.zip
I can upload you a template, leave the txt in it and replace the boot.img with your desired one, choose store (none) compression level, then put the zip directly (don't use folders) in sd card
EDIT: I didn't fully read your post before. If you don't have S-OFF most probably you can't get away without adb drivers..

Turned off device signing. No effect.

Have you tried now manually installing drivers in device manager while the phone is in unrecognized state? Does it still say the drivers are incompatible?
If your OS is 64bit, you need these http://d-h.st/23V

I have those drivers. I installed them manually. I tried the updating the drivers through device manager and pointing them directly to the drivers folder I need, and Windows is insistent that not having ANY drivers installed is the best driver to have installed for my device.
I am getting a pop up saying that the device is failing to to start. It's not like other usb devices I might have plugged in and they just sit there in at least their correct category in device manager.
The part that ticks me off most, is that this exact problem on this exact model has been solved on three different forums, and each time the OP just said "nvm I fixed it" and never even bothered to explain how for the rest of us.
It's really hard not to curse right now.

in device manager update dialog goto
browse my computer --> let me pick --> have disk --> choose the .inf from the drivers path.

Ya, I had tried that too. None of them will work. It says the file I chose doesn't have compatible software for my device.
Once again, this only happens in the hboot/fastboot/RUU. Once the phone has loaded the OS it works totally completely fine, save for HTC Sync not seeing the phone and vice versa. I don't understand why some drivers would only work sometimes unless something is wrong with my bootloader, and if so, how do i fix it?

have you tried un-installing HTC SYNC?

Nothing is wrong with your phone, same thing happens to me, I just thought disabling driver signing should fix it, like I said I was too lazy to check it since I found workaround for my needs.

It is currently uninstalled.
@smoger:
I would try your workaround, but I' m not sure where to obtain the boot image I need. Also, I thought you could only change the S-Off if your bootloader was unlocked anyways?

Power down DHD and connect it to PC. I realized, my win7 was installing drivers, while phone was off.

It appears to be the same device/drivers when powered off or when in the Android environment. While in the bootloader, it shows as an unknown device.
I also noticed that only when I am trying to update via RUU, it says instead "Device Descriptor Request Failed"

The boot.img is in the ROM-zip-file packed. But I think, if its a RUU it is called PD98...img

Try this, I know its from Samsung, but this installs fastboot drivers and drivers used for ADB access

For the set of Google Drivers, go here too http://d-h.st/23V

My drivers list does not show the Google or HTC drivers like yours does after installing all the things in your links. In fact, that's the fourth time I've downloaded those Google/HTC Win7 64x drivers from people around the web. They are not in my drivers list after installing them via the INF files. I must be doing something wrong.

To be exact I have:
Tried HTC Sync
Tried HTC Drivers Installer
Tried to Automatically search for drivers
Tried to install drivers by using the inf Install option
Tried to manually select drivers by pointing to the folder the Win7 64x drivers were placed
Tried to manually install by picking out the exact inf files
Tried to install from device drivers list, were they were not listed
Tried these steps with driver signing turned off
Tried all of these steps with another PC
I still think the issue is related to the fact that it only has problems in the bootloader menu

Ok, like u know I had this issue. Now I randomly managed to fix it when I needed adb drivers for my new toy (Sanei tablet for 40$ lol)
The mistake I was making is that I was trying to install the drivers while device was in fastboot, but apparently you can get away with casual "My HTC" drivers which can be installed when DHD is booted into Android. It looks likethe phone is not being detected from bootloader (it doesn't like any of the drivers I had tried), but I can fully use ADB while it's in recovery or starting/trying to boot OS, so it should be enough for rooting/unlocking bootloader.
I remember with HTC Wildfire I had drivers package with seperate drivers for Android and fastboot, so I had to install different driver after rebooting to fastboot, but with these new drivers and win8 it doesn't work out this way.

Solved. Used Windows 7 32-bit. Windows 8.1 was the culprit.

LTE Nexus Waiting for Device error

I'm going crazy here. I'm good with all this type of stuff but nothing is working. I want to return my phone to stock so I can exchange it for a new one at verizon. I keep getting the waiting for device error in fastboot. I had this problem a lot with trying to unlock it too. I'm not sure how I ever got it to work. I've downloaded and installed the drivers multiple times and still nothing. Can someone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong please?
I'm using windows 7 64bit. The drivers aren't right in device manager.
The drivers are fishy in windows 7 64bit. Download PDA net to your computer. It will install drivers correctly. Sounds weird but it works.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I've certainly noticed that they are pretty messed up on Windows 7. Unfortunately I've already done that and it still doesn't work.
Reboot your computer and plug the phone in and let the drivers try to install automatically, worked for me.
So I installed the driver a different way and it worked fine this time. I'm not really sure why I never tried that way before or why that way worked differently but it did! Thanks for the suggestions.
In what way did you install it? I'm having the same problem and it would be nice for search purposes.
i had issues with drivers on win7 64x, first, it would take for ever once the phone was plugged in, for windows to initially auto-install the drivers (after installing the ones from samsung)....a very long time. but, even after 3/4 of it installed correctly, i hadn't noticed that the Android 1.0 drivers didn't install at all. If you goto control panel->system->device manager, see if there is an alert next to 'Android', if so, open it, choose to manually install the drivers, but don't select a location on your hd, use the list of available drivers already on the computer, find 'samsung', and select the drivers that come up (again, had to download samsung drivers from their site and install that First)
this fixed the issue for me. and nothing like a good ol' reboot too to fix random windows issues : )

[Q] Fastboot driver problem

Hi, I have a huge problem and I don't know what to do anymore. I try to access fastboot mode on my Xperia Play, so I can flash ICS kernel, I did usual stuff, followed the guides, watches few videos on youtube, now I am stuck on part where I have to install drivers manually.
So basicly I go to device manager, select S1boot, update, select driver... And after I do that, every single time it says that Windows could not find driver software for your device.
I tried downloading many different drivers, I tried many combinations in pointing them like:
C:\Users\T-N-Z\Desktop\Fastboot\fastboot\Drivers\x64
or just
C:\Users\T-N-Z\Desktop\Fastboot\fastboot\Drivers\
etc..
I am on Windows 8 RTM Pro. I had similar issue in Windows 7, but it fixed itself randomly :/
I also installed Android SDK and Android USB drivers from it..
I tried installing fastboot driver with flashtool, but I believe it installs wrong driver, S1boot gets renamed to SEMCFLASH or something called like that, and after that my Xperia Play won't stay in fastboot mode, so I can't do anything.
Please help me out, what am I doing wrong? Thank you.

Ok, I have disabled driver thingie on Windows 8 and installed your package files. Now drivers says that I have Android ADB interface, but... When I boot into fastboot mode, after some time it just turns offs and phone starts charging process.
Maybe it needs to be fully charged or something before I can do anything or what?
It just started working for no reason again... Don't know what I've done differently this time but it works now. Thanks for help.

adb fastboot driver problem

Hi,
i tryed to get the Desire working with adb and everything works fine. I downloaded HTC Sync, installed only the drivers, and the adb interface worked with the Desire. But if i reboot in bootloader and use fastbootinterface it doesn't work.
fastboot devices get no result.
I downloaded unrevoke modified drivers, i also tryed to uninstall HTC driver and install only the modifed drivers. I also tryed to use this drivers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161769
but always the same problem:
The device manager shows adb Intreface and there the HTC bootloader, but with and yellow !. properties of the Device shows me following error:

You should uninstall everything and start from the beginning. HTC sync clearly messed something up.
First, try to reinstall hboot drivers.
allready tryed but i get the same error.
google "the devices can not be started (code 10)"
happened to me before, its a windows problem. u have to delete something , cant remember what tho.
i uninstalled every thing desire also the not shown devices in devices manager. than i connected the desire in fastboot with pc and the pc gets the driver from alone. But with the error.
Thanks for the tip with the delete something. but the only results i find are something about reinstall the driver, update the driver, uninstall the driver, ask the support of the device -.-
Do you know maybe a link word what i need to delete? is it a file, an old driver,...??
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...9oGABg&usg=AFQjCNH1CYaPX1ZheHJ-vYr2Y3GDNFFvWw
try here, the thing that worked for me was deleting somthing in the registry.
thank you very much i'll try it
Just found the time to read the link.
One question? I looked for the Device Class GUID for USB. But there is no lowerfilter and upperfilter. What class is the desire?
I got a similar problem on my workstation, I got an Android Phone in device manager and nothing else, I'm not able to connect and mount desires SD Card. Windows 7 x64, on my laptop (same os) everthing works fine. My PC recognizes desire only with drivers from Android SDK software.
i think your problem is a bit diferent. Do you have a custom ROM installed?
If you did and it is an android 4.x ROM there are many Problems with USB mount. Try an app to mount the SD Card.
Back to my problem. I readed all of the site from up to down and than i deletet the Keys. After Reboot 2 times i got the bluescreen -.- after that the autorepair startet it selfs. the first couldn't repiar the system, and the second couldn't either. So i needed to reinstll windows
The good thing with this is There is difently no HTC on the PC anymore. So in what order i need to install which drivers to get the Desire in Fastboot connected?
A the moment I'm using CronMode 2.1 (previous CM 2.0, SpazeDog ICS, BravoBCM). On previous roms (all ICS based on CM9) got same problem. Laptop - ASUS S6F, Windows 7 Pro x64 - phone recognized, usb mount working fine. Desktop - Gigabyte P55-UD3, Windows 7 Pro x64 - just got Android Phone in device manager and that's all.
What app do you mean?
Try Usb mass storage toggle form the market.

You can first try to reinstall the Driver.

I can't reinstal OS. It's my workstation... I work on it. I tried with a lot of drivers (even from SDK), same effect "Android Phone" or ADB Interface device.

Phone isnt recognized in fastboot

Can anyone help me?
I'm running windows 8 64-bit, and I have an HTC One from VZW.
The phone is recognized via ADB, but whenever I get into the bootloader, it tells me the device isnt recognized and I can't do any fastboot commands with it. I was able to root and use fastboot on my N7 2013 from the same PC, so this is frustrating because I want to send my One in to sonic but if I can't DO anything when I s-off there's no point in sending it it.
If anyone can help I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
PS - I've only tried this PC, no others. It may work on my macbook but thats away for repair.

Here is a previous post I made to another guy having the same problem. Not sure if this will help but this is what I did.
I had this problem too running windows 8 x64. I think my problem was that I installed the sdk first with google's USB driver and not HTC's driver. What I did to make it work is switch computers over to my wifes which at the time I hadn't installed anything on yet. I went to htcdev.com and went to the part of the site where it is step-by-step on how to unlock the bootloader. I installed the Java Runtime Environment on the link provided on the upper right side of the site, then I installed the HTC sync manager on the link provided as well. I had my phone connected to my computer usb 2.0 (not usb 3.0) the whole time and with USB debugging enabled (not in fastboot mode, but with phone normally on). After that I took the three files from the sdk that htc wants you to place in a separate folder and put them in c:\Android. I did not install anything from sdk this go around.. i just took the three files out and put them in a separate folder as instructed by htc. After that I opened cmd and directed it to the folder I placed the files in (cd c:\Android) and ran command "adb reboot bootlader" Once I did that and hit fastboot the "My HTC" in device manager no longer had an exclamation point. So in summary, I couldn't reverse the drivers from my computer that I installed first so I resorted to using my wife's computer that didn't have anything installed yet. I installed JRE, then HTC sync software, and just used the 3 files HTC wants from sdk and placed them into a separate folder. I didn't install anything from sdk. It all worked after that. I don't have instructions on how to reverse the usb drivers you have already installed because I couldn't figure it out... in fact, I formatted windows on my pc and am reinstalling. Hope this helps.

Yeah I'm going to try it out on my roommates laptop that only has samsung drivers and the ADB installed and see what happens. Can't reformat the PC cause it's my School desktop and I've got work on there.
Once my macbook pro comes back from repairs I'll use that though, since I've never had issues running adb commands on my mac
Found a soultion
After I tried almost everything I tried to improvise and try something totally different and it worked!
First uninstall the driver in the Device Manger and then press to update it >> then press Browse my Computer for driver Software >> then press on Let me pick from list.... >> in the list choose the Portable Devices >> choose MPT USB Drive !
And It works...

MPT USB Drive isnt one of my options
However I've found that it's microsofts USB3 drivers, which override the Intel ones.
I just got my macbook back from repairs and it has USB3 ports as well so I was worried it wouldnt work, but its working fine from there
I'm having this same problem and nothing I do is working. I even tried from another computer but had no luck. adb finds the phone fine but fastboot just won't work. This is keeping me from getting S-Off. Someone please help.
Edit: Nevermind I think the issue is that I'm using Windows 8.1
I'm having the same problem I'm windows 8 64bit...
I have a nagging feeling that it's pda net.. I need to look into it today sometime

[Q] Device undetected by Windows.

After going through a replacement process (twice) after cracking the screen on my first device, I was relieved to find that the replacement I got sent wasn't updated to un-moddable status. However, after using rumrunner to s-off, flashing cwm 6.0.4.8 recovery, and using that to install cm11 m6 snapshot, I was disappointed to find that my phone will not connect to Windows in a manner where I can access USB storage. Enabling debugging in dev options does initiate the "device plugin sound" from Windows, but after looking in device manager, all that shows up there is "Android ADB Interface". When debugging is disabled, Windows makes no sounds, and there is nothing in the device manager. The only response i'm receiving is that the charge light on the device comes on. I would try to install drivers, but seeing as the computer doesn't even recognize that a device is plugged in, i'm pretty much halted on that front. Any comments or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!

once the windows sees the phone. feel free to remove the sync portion of the install and keep the driver installer on the pc.

me too. :/ but i found that this was the less headache way for me. sync and drivers will show up as 2 different installers. i deleted sync and kept the drivers. im sure one can uninstall the driver installer part of htc software and windows will keep the ini file intact but i never tried this.

Hehe, thanks. I guess I'm just a little paranoid about having junky, manufacturer specific software on my pc. Will see if this works.
