Hi there, I'm new to this and I'm attempting to follow the wiki on how to boot a recovery rom to my MyTouch3G. After a big ol' headache getting 'adb devices' to work, when I boot my MT3G into FASTBOOT USB mode, it doesnt show up when I type 'fastboot devices'. I'm stumped and don't know what to do.
I'm using Windows 7 Professional x64.

You might have a perfected SPL or there are some related issues with Windows 7 and x64 as a dev platform. These are discussed in detail in other threads searchable on the forum.
You might also have the phone mounted or using some driver other than the HTC driver.
I'd start with the "Read this before you post" and "Hacking wiki threads"... I remember seeing something about this recently, but can't find the thread.
I'm comming from the Samsung vibrant so im fairly new to nexus community. However I did find a couple tut. that were very good, I followed everything exactly as the person in the video. By the way the tutorial i used was from the Unlockr. But anyways i followed everything i set up adb my device appeared in the command prompt. However the next step once your phone is recognized when setting up adb is to power off and get into "fastboot". I did that, plugged the usb in and opened another command prompt. When i type in "fastboot oem unlock" it just hangs on the "waiting for device" part forever. Can someone please help me out thankx
You should really use a more descriptive title. I had no idea what this was about until the last sentence.
If you closed your terminal, than adb probably closed as well. Open up the cmd window while the phone is in fastboot and type
adb devices

That should start adb back up and let you know if the phone is detected in one command. It should then be ready for
fastboot OEM unlock

Hi,
I'm kind of a noob at this rooting stuff. I've looked ariund, done my research and everything but it never seems to go smoothly??..
I think the main problem is with the drivers. After following instructions the android drivers still said 'Android 1.0'. So I installed Pda net and then I got 'Android ADB Interface' drivers. Soo the thing is, after searching for 'adb devices' in cmd prompt, It says 'list of devices' but there's nothing in the list....?
For some reason it won't do any commands like 'adb reboot bootloader' or 'fastboot oem lock'. It says not found. I have installed all the sdk and packages...
Would really appreciate some help from you guys. I didn't think rooting would be so complex??...
Thanks
can you post screenshot??
Ok for some reason, after starting the cmd again today and typing adb devices, it has listed my device. But when I type 'fastboot oem lock' (because my bootloader is already unlocked) it says not found as shown in the screenshot.
Am I doing something stupid??...

If adb devices lists your device you're not in the boot loader, the ONLY place fastboot will recognize your device and function or you have a driver issue. You're either in recovery or booted up. Reboot into the boot loader to use fastboot.
If you get into the boot loader and fastboot still doesn't show your device it's a driver issue. Update the driver manually and point it to the SDK USB driver provided with the SDK.
For reference....
Booted into boot loader:
Fastboot OK
ADB NO
Recovery / Fully booted
Fastboot NO
ADB OK
Hi guys,
I really do think this is a driver issue... any idea on how to solve it? I do have PDA Net installed... ?
@krohnjw ... could you please clarify.. Im a bit lost.
Thanks!
Did you try something like oneclickroot?

Well I also had a lot of issues trying to root my i9020t so let me try to help..
Phone will be recognized with ADB when u select enable debug on developer options. You ll see "Android ADB Interface" on SYS DRV.
On other hand , when U start phone on fasboot mode, it should install something like "Android Bootloader Interface " , if U keep seeing "Android ADB Interface" , its wrong, but took some time to realize that.
That happened to me when I was using WinXP x32 to root my phone, ironically thinking it would be more compatible an less prone to bugs... When done it on W7 x64 , my fastboot driver was discovered correctly (Android bootloader Interface) using x64 PDA drivers, and all went good then!
Hope this may help!
I've been trying to solve this for a while now and cant seem to get it to work.
I have adb and fastboot installed on the computer.
When I run the cmd window, I can get a recognition from adb when I'm in recovery mode, but as soon as I run <adb reboot bootloader> the phone goes into bootloader, disconnects temporarily from the computer and reconnects.
When I go into devices on the computer I can see that the computer see's it. It recognizes it as my HTC although it shouldn't right?
When I come back to my cmd window I try to run fastboot commands with no success. <fastboot devices> gives me a blank line and its ready for the next command.
I looked around and saw that a lot of people dint have the right cables, drivers for the phone or dint restart they're computer.
I have done it all. I re-downloaded the drivers I think 10 times in vane.
Any help would be appreciated thx
OS on phone is no longer there I lost it. dont know how.
OS on computer is windows 10 64 bit

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
Sorry to hear about your trouble. We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist but fortunately there is an XDA area dedicated to the HTC One (M7) at http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one which would be a good starting place. I suggest you post your question with all relevant details in the friendly Q&A forum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/help where the experts familiar with your device will be best able to guide you.
Good luck!
EDIT: Member has now posted in the suggested area. Thread closed.
My device is a One Plus One. I've installed an ADB driver from here: adbdriver (some site I've searched up on google) (Is this even safe? I've never seen anyone use this link before or maybe it's new. It's not a virus is it?)
So once I've installed it, I've typed all commands such as adb while my device is turned on but then when it gets to where I have to press my powerbutton+volume down and then go into the recovery screen, I see "Cyanogen Recovery" or whatever but that's what it says. Suddenly on my computer, the ADB device disappears altogether and I cannot see my One Plus One storage anymore (it's connected and even If I unconnect and reconnect it's still the same). I believe I've unlocked my phone already before so is this why? I just want to make sure and type fastboot oem device-info but when I type that nothing comes up. I've been trying to solve this and I don't know what to do anymore... Is it because I've already unlocked my device (but even I'm not sure if it's still unlocked and that's why I'm trying to confirm it by typing "fastboot oem device-info" which doesn't even work. Help please!

Greetings,
Thank you for using XDA Assist. To get you the expert help you need, I'm going to move this thread to your specific device Q&A forum.
Good luck!
You need to boot into bootloader by pressing volume up + power.
Then you can use "fastboot devices" to see if your OPO is being recognised.
"fastboot oem device-info" only works when you boot to bootloader
ADB is not fastboot btw.
http://www.androidcentral.com/android-z-what-fastboot
ADB does only work when your phone is booted to the Android system and USB-Debugging is enabled
