I tried almost everything, windows reinstall, drivers reinstall, didnt work. PLZ help me.

Hello
Posted this over in Pauls MoDaCo forum as well but not had any replies yet so thought it best to try here as well.
I've bricked my Desire, phone loads up but the sim and sd card aren't recognised (though I can still use wi fi).
When connecting the phone to my PC (tried windows 7 and XP) the drivers fail to install and I get various faults like the device being recognised as android 1.0 usb to a Qualcomm device.
The phone is still rooted (I can install rooted apps from the market) however after following various unbricking guides I always get stuck at stage 2 (i.e. enable sd card), if the PC won't recognise the device how can i run the 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' command?
I've also tried running fastboot using a terminal app on the phone but it doesn't recognise fastboot, should i be in a specific directory on the phone when running this command?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Have you tried using a different jab port? I had to use one at the back of my pc front ports wouldn't install drivers properly.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
You need to follow the guide on modaco for unbricking your device. You have the usb brick, and it can easilly be fixed.
Follow the steps religiously and you will be up n running in no time again.
I've followed the guide lots of time, it's not that long winded so it shouldn't be to hard to follow.
I get stuck on step two, using the fastboot command.
My PC and also tried laptop (Win XP and 7), different USB ports (front and back) but each time it attempts to load drivers and I end up with it either being recognised as an Android 1.0, Android Bootloader Interface or a Qualcomm device. I then run fastboot, and get the device not recognised error.
I've now tried to connect my phone to a windows Xp and 7 PC and a laptop, a Linux laptop and tried using the Tiny Linux root guide to see if that would work, but each time the PC/laptop fails to recognise the phone so can't get into recovery or run the fastboot command.

You don't need to get into recovery for this.
You have sdk installed, so boot your phone by pressing power while holding down the volume down button.
Use a command prompt on your pc and cd to the tools directory in the sdk. If the sdk is saved to the root of your C: drive on the pc you would type
Code:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
When in there type
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
This will re-enable your sd card and allow you to continue.
That doesnt work, just stops on the waiting for device line and doesnt continue.
Also using the cmd 'adb devices' shows nothing so I'm guessing my phone isn't recognised on my PC. At the moment it's in fastboot usb (on phone) and in devices on the PC I've got Android Bootloader Interface with the yellow problem sign against it.
thanks for your help, it's appreciated, tried a few forums but no one is that interested in helping.

It definitely sounds like the old usb brick problem, so that's a good thing! When you tried the commands were you booted into fastboot? When you connect the phone to the computer does the phone display change from saying fastboot to fastboot usb? I think thats what it should say, can't remember to be honest!
Have you tried another usb port, and a different cable too?
Edit: I'd also try rebooting the computer to ensure any running process etc are closed.
Got it fixed, final throw of the dice this morning I connected the phone to a Vista laptop and it was recognised straight away, so downloaded HTCSync then ADB tools on to the laptop and finally got the re enable command to work.
Jeez that took for ever, strange that Xp, Win7 and Linux PCs couldn't recognise the phone but Vista did.
Still got it sorted, thanks for the help.
No worries. Glad you got it sorted.
I have almost the same problem.
but with the legend.
SD is not recognized.
Can´t Call,
Can´t connect via USB.
Is there something I can do in the built in terminal in the ROM?
Sorry if this is the wrong thread.
Hello guys, I have a Redmi Note 5 (Global Version) with Snapdragon 636, and this phone is really amazing. I'd like however to unlock its booloader so I can install Pixel Experience on it, as I'd like to use other roms than MIUI. The issue is, well, I can't.
Something really strange happens: if I connect my phone via USB 2.0 to my computer, it is recognized as usual. It appears in Device Manager, is recognized by ADB, no problem. Then I reboot in fastboot mode and the device is still there. However, the EXACT moment I open Mi Unlock Tool, without clicking anything (Agree or logging in to my mi account) the phone is instantly disconnected and the "Press any key to shutdown" message appears on the top-left of my phone's screen.
Stuff I've tried:
- made sure OEM unlocking and USB debugging are on
- installed Mi Unlock tool in C:
- installed the ADB drivers in C:/Program Files
- disabled integrity checks from CMD
- installed and checked the MiUSBDriver umpteen times
- used 4 different versions of Mi Unlock Tool (1.0, 2.2, 2.3, and 3.3 - 1.0 halts at 50%, the other 3 won't detect my phone at all)
- made sure the device is bound to my Mi Account
I've tried using Hexerus' guide here (post #18) and everything seems to work fine, until step 6 when my phone instantly disconnects when opening Mi Unlock Tool.
Do you guys have any ideas? Thanks.

Used USB 2.0, didn't work
Happened with me before, and I looked Google and found some solutions like installing the drivers again and using old miunlock tool and using different USB Socket however, none of theme worked,
Next day I opened the laptop to try again and suddenly it worked!
I didn't know what exactly fixed it
After the 720 hours period, I have spent literally weeks of trying to unlock my device's bootloader and what I would add is to switch between computers. I'm running Windows 10 on my room computer and all I had with MiUnlock were errors such as device disconnecting once in fastboot, "Couldn't unlock" messages, chinese characters... Until I decided to use my 2005 Windows 7 desktop and wow !, device unlocked at first try ! No need any other trick
just uninstall Previous drivers or use Windows 7 PC,with latest drivers of ADB ,i also faced same problem:angel:
I have Redmi Note 5 Pro (Indian Version)
When I connect my phone using fastboot or ADB it gets detected and connected properly. ADB commands are also working properly. The "fastboot devices" command shows the device connected initially, but whenever I try to flash something or try a command in fastboot mode the phone automatically gets disconnected and a small text appears at the top of the phone's screen stating "Press any key to Shutdown" and the PowerShell window states "FAILED (write to device failed (too many links))". Even while using MI Flash or MI Unlock the same thing happens.
The fastboot commands were working properly on my old laptop (SONY VAIO SVE15136CNB) but after I got a new laptop (ACER Predator Helios 300 PH315-51) the fastboot commands stopped working. The fastboot commands still work on my old laptop.
I have tried using many different fastboot drivers (also the one that works on the old laptop) in the new laptop but no luck. I have tried different USB cables and also the original one. Tried to use every USB port but same error occurs. I have tried 2 other Note 5 Pros and a Note 4 in the new laptop but same error occurs.
So, I have concluded that the error has something to do with my new laptop and it is probably about the USB port version of my new laptop. If someone has experienced similar error, I would appreciate getting some help about this matter. I have tried searching about the error on google but I couldn't find much information. I hope someone could help me.
Hello
Hope someone can help I cannot find a definitive answer hopefully in layman's terms for this problem.
Redmi Note 8 Pro Bergonia 6gb ram 128gb storage Miui 12 Global
Tried CFW 2020 Anti-Brick Corvus ....., Afterwards Phone booted then went completely dead apart from power light when connected to usb
Came accross SP Flash Tool this did help, phone now boots, all seems ok apart from when in fastboot when connecting usb to PC/laptop (tried several cables with a PC and laptop using USB 2.0 all worked prior to trying CFW) all with same result phone stays in fasboot for approx 20 seconds then reboots. Don't know if this is relevant, if I put the phone into fastboot and do not connect to usb, fastboot remains on. Is there anyway I can install twrp and root, or am I stuffed?
Thanks

1/Try flash with Miflashtool
2/Try unbrick hardbrick method. You can find on many: Youtube, Telegram, Github, XDA,... Keep phone in EDL mode by bypass and flash by Sp flash tool.
Thank you SP flash tool and a newer driver fixed it.
Use USB 2.0 ports. (use usb 2.0 hubs if you dont have usb 2.0 ports)
Install drivers properly (it should say Android Bootloader Interface in Device Manager)
When i try to enter fastboot i am not getting the logo but just the word "fastboot". My poco f3 works perfectly but will not enter the fastboot mode with the logo. When i connect to the pc it is not recognised in this mode. I would be grateful if anyone can advise how to get it back to normal.

New fastboot logo is the orange FASTBOOT word. So it is already normal. If it's not recognized it may be a problem with drivers, usb cable, debug authorization/permissions.

Hi,
I have had my F3 for 13 months and Fastboot and windows can still be temperamental, my PC has 10+ usb sockets.
As bozinsky73 Suggested installing the correct drivers and maybe a different USB-C lead might help, you could try running MiFlash and then select the drivers tab and then Install, as some XDA users have had success with this.
I have tried 3 different (Aliexpress) Silicone coated leads and these cause my PC to flag up "unknown device" when in FASTBOOT, i also have 2 leads that look like the most cheapest ones out there and these work OK, even thou some times i still have to switch to another USB socket on my PC.
I run 3 different versions of windows on 3 different partitions that run, Win 7, Win 10 and Win 11 and i am still faced with the same issue regardless of the windows version.
I hope you sort it.
Thanks for the replies and solved it with a new cable. I was using the cable that came with the phone but obviously must have damage somewhere. Thanks anyway.
