[Q] USB BOS descriptor failed, "waiting for device", "Device cannot start. (Code 10)"
Hello
The situation:
I'm trying to relock the bootloader and flash RUU, so that I can get rid of the tampered flag and start over.
I'm trying to use Hasoon2000's Toolkit to do this, but I'll try any method that sounds reasonable.
When I connect the HTC One S to the PC (running Windows 8) and select 'Mount as disk drive', the PC recognizes the device, and I can explore it. Using Hasoon's toolkit I select "Relock Bootloader" and click "Do Command". A first command prompt pops up, then my phone goes into fastboot, then I close the first prompt, then a second prompt follows and says "waiting for device".
I enter the Device Manager -> "Android USB Devices" -> "My HTC", -> Right click -> "Properties". In the Device Status field it says:
"This device cannot start. (Code 10) A request for the USB BOS descriptor failed."
EXTRA INFO:
I didn't use Hasoon's toolkit to unlock the bootloader, I actually used the platform-tools from the SKD bundle thru the terminal on a mac pc. Then I flashed CWM onto the One S using "./fastboot flash recovery recovery_thefilename.zip". Then I reloaded bootloader, selected Recovery, then my phone's screen went black, turned back on, and I saw the Red Triangle with the Exclamation mark. According to a "How to" blog, which I didn't read until after the fact, I was supposed to hold down the power button and volume button at that point in time, but I didn't. I had no idea what was going on. I pressed the power button and my phone restarted, and now every time I reboot to recovery mode, it just restarts the phone and says "This build is for development purposes only. Any redistribution will result in legal action." or something like that.
OK THAT'S ALL.
I appreciate any help!

The text in red is normal if you have a custom recovery.
Just get the device in fastboot USB mode.
Check with command: fastboot devices
To see if it is connected. I should return you sn number.
(Since you manually unlocked, this should be easy for u.)
Then manually flash a correct recovery (or use the toolkit with the custom option). Reboot in recovery. Flash ROM.

Can you try to execute fastboot oem lock command on Windows OS which have hTC drivers installed? I guess that you using Linux OS now... Just install Windows in VM and hTC drivers, adb and fastboot you can download on htcdev.com or from android bundle package... I'm pretty sure that you have problem with your drivers...

USB 3.0 might be the issue
Hey guys, thanks for trying to help me out here, I appreciate it a bunch!
Before I go any further. I think I've learned what the problem is. Well, first of all, if you didn't catch it, I've been working thru this on both win and apple computers.
Hasoon's toolkit is only available for windows. Therefore, if I said/say I did something with his toolkit, that means I was using my win computer, which is actually a Surface Pro, which has USB 3.0 === THE PROBLEM
According to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29286429
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to test this hypothesis, yet, because I first need to find a win pc with USB 2.0. [Fact: I couldn't get androidfiletransfer.app to recognize my htc one S on my mac. Coincidence?]
real187: When you say to install a "correct" recovery, are you implying I currently have an incorrect recovery on my phone?
mikronac: I have virtually no experience with command prompt. I just got my Surface Pro last week :laugh: and I'm geeking out...So, what I'm saying is I don't know how to do "fastboot oem lock command" ... The htc drivers are installed, up-to-date and operating without a hitch.
It can't be problematic your usb 3.0.
Please deinstall your phone drivers and install them again...
If you know how to navigate to platform tools folder in Windows Explorer, only what you need to do is to hold shift key on keyboard and right click on mouse and select option open command prompt here. Than you type :
Adb devices
Response should be serial number of phone
Adb reboot bootloader (uab debugging must be enabled)
When it reboot in fastboot, type in cmd:
Fastboot oem lock

I can confirm: It is USB 3.0
Hi, today I faced similar problem while trying to put my Sony Xperia S into fastboot. Only after finding this topic and switching from USB3.0 port to USB 2.0 did I manage to boot into fastboot. I have not tested, if I can boot into fastboot now, that the driver has been correctly installed via USB 2.0, but to avoid any troubles I suggest everyone to stick with USB2.0 for now.
I found this topic as I had the exact same error in Device Manager as OP in this topic.

I know it has been a long time but I just encountered the same problem with fastboot, an HTC One S and Windows 8.1. These steps from Microsoft (a registry edit workaround) enabled my computer to recognize the device and got fastboot seeing it too:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/usbcoreblog...8-0-but-fail-on-windows-8-1-with-code-43.aspx
I'll paste the workaround here in case Microsoft take the page down:
To apply the workaround for a specific device, add a REG_DWORD value named SkipBOSDescriptorQuery that has a value of 1 to the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\usbflags\vvvvpppprrrr
(where vvvv is the device's Vendor ID, pppp is the device's Product ID, and rrrr is the device's Revision number. You can get the VID/PID/REV numbers from the device manager's details tab. This number is encoded in the HardwareIDs of the device)
1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK .
2. Locate and then click the following subkey in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\UsbFlags
3. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click Key.
4.Type the name of the new key in the following form:
vvvvpppprrrr
where
vvvv is a 4-digit hexadecimal number that identifies the vendor (idDevice from the USB Deviceescriptor),
pppp is a 4-digit hexadecimal number that identifies the product (idVendor from the USB Device Descriptor)
rrrr is a 4-digit binary-coded decimal number that contains the revision number of the device
(bcdDevice from the USB Device Descriptor).
5. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD (32-bit) Value.
6. Type SkipBOSDescriptorQuery for the name of the DWORD Value, and then press ENTER.
7. Right-click SkipBOSDescriptorQuery, and then click Modify.
8. In the Value data box, type 1 , and then click OK.
9. Exit Registry Editor.
10. Unplug and re-plug the device for the workaround to take effect.

On mine that meant editing a registry key called 0BB40FF00100 that already existed.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. Fixed for me on HTC Magic
..
Problem is caused by Windows 8 and Windows 10. Just no compatibility for old hardware.. I'm disappointed from Microsoft Windows.

Problem is caused by Windows 8 and Windows 10. Just no compatibility for old hardware.. I'm disappointed from Microsoft Windows. Btw, I tried all methods in forums and in YouTube too (updating USB Root Hub drivers). Nothing helps, just "Failed device enumeration". Windows 10.. I will go back to Win7, fortunately I don't have license for 10.. Pray about these who has...
Bruh, this worked like magic on my HTC One X+ !!!
Using Windows 10 Enterprise Build 17134 by the way
Thanks a lot!
Thank you very much bro. HTC One V good working.
Hello all,
I have installed android sdk, google usb drivers etc. I am using windows Xp. My phone is upto date as per the Sony PC companion installed in windows. When I try to connect my phone in usb debugging mode to adb, its not showing up. when I give adb devices it doesn't list any devices.
when I give adb shell, it says device not found. I tried all methods like kill-server, start-server and killing adb.exe etc. after I went thru the existing threads in this forum. Nothing works !!
And the interesting thing that I could not figure out is about the device manager. After I try all methods it says drivers not installed. I try to install google usb drivers as well by browsing the folder in my android sdk . It was displaying like 'nothing found to install'
Any ideas please ??
One update.
Google usb drivers were not being installed correctly. When I update driver and browse to the Android SDK folder where the Google USB drivers present (My case .... Android SDK-> Extras-> Google -> usb_driver) it says 'nothing to update'
Then I edited android_winusb.inf file there and included my device ID (as showing up in Device manager). And it installed the drivers.
Then I opened adb again. And gave 'adb devices' and finally I could see my device listed !!!!
But still one major problem exists. That the device is getting disconnected continuously from adb and each time I would have to restart the adb and this makes it useless....
Not able to figure out why ...
Try using this: adbdriver . c o m
If it does not work try flashtool's drivers
I unlocked the bootloader and installed sdk manager and all things but my adb device is not being recognised I installed all the Htc drivers. The error shows "list of device attach but without any device id" and then it shows "no device found". I have attached a photo of the error.Someone help me out.

Which windows version do you use? Have you enabled "USB Debugging"?
I m using windows 7. And yes I have enabled Usb debugging and also installed htc drivers still it isnt working
Have you tried a different USB port; one on the back? Or a different USB cable?
Not sure what happened, but all of a sudden whenever I plug in my Blu Studio X+ into either one of my computers with USB Debugging enabled I get a pop up saying the USB device is not recognized, and it shows up in the Device Manager as an Unknown Device. I've tried updating the driver manually, but every time I navigate to an INF file in the driver installation dialog it tells me the specified file contains no information on the device. Doing an "adb devices" command returns nothing, and "adb shell" returns "error: device 'null' not found".

Already check your cable?maybe your cable does not support to transfer data beetween your phone and PC.
Make sure you have connect as a 'MTP' or Try to connect as a 'USB Mass Storage'
If you have tried all the ways,the last way is to backup your phone and do factory reset,or it will be BETTER if you bring your phone to serviceperson,because maybe there is an issues on your hardware.

You seem to have a lot of driver problems considering the number of threads you made
Go to device manager with your phone plugged in and uninstall every driver that has to do anything with your phone.
Unplug phone.
Reboot your PC.
Now plug phone back in and wait for the automatic driver installation to complete (doesn't matter if it succeeds or not).
Click here to download the latest driver (download it even if you have already).
Disable USB debugging and enable it again and wait for the automatic driver updater if it opens.
Open device manager and manually select the .inf file for your device.
If you don't know which device is your phone, unplug the phone and plug it back in and watch which devices disappear and then reappear again.
Also updating to Ubuntu, as your profile picture suggests, should ease the ADB driver installation and reduce ADB problems
Got it figured out. Wiped all ADB drivers and reinstalled, then downgraded my system-wide ADB from 1.4.2 to 1.3.

I had to solve this issue with a RCA tablet that I flashed, here is how.
Connect your device to PC
Open control panel
Select Device Manager
Find your device on the list, right click it, then select "update driver"
Select "browse my computer for driver software"
Select "let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
Select your device type from the list
Then it should show a list of drivers you have installed on PC, select the "Android Bootloader Interface"(you can select the "have disk" option if you know which folder your Xperia drivers were installed to when you installed them on your PC, youll have to browse to that folder then it will list the drivers to choose from, choose the Android Bootloader Interface.
That should do it for you.
If you have trouble with this I can walk you through step by step, I'll just need you to tell me what you see on your computer screen and I'll tell you what to select next.
