I'm trying to relock my HOX to send in for warranty repair, but I'm having problems with getting my computer to recognize my HOX device in fastboot mode. Fastboot devices does not return any devices. I've tried the following suggestions/fixes posted in other threads:
-Verified fast boot mode is enabled in power settings menu
-Verified USB debugging is enabled
-Uninstalled and reinstalled HTC Sync
-Verified HTC Sync was closed, prior to using fastboot
The problem appears to be with the USB drivers not installing properly. I can't get my phone to be recognized by HTC Sync. With fastboot OFF, USB debugging OFF, HTC sync ON, I receive one of the following 3 error messages.
"USB composite device" driver not installed/recognized
"USB Mass Storage Device" driver not installed/recognized
Unknown device
If Fastboot or USB debugging is on, I get unknown device.
I've tried installing drivers through windows device manager, but that doesn't work either.
Any help would be appreciated.
Download the driver installer from HTCdev and run it.

Are you referring to the drivers installed through HTC sync or is there an alternate file of drivers?
?? There is USB debugging in boot loader screen?? You should just need adbwin and fast boot in PC folder. Hold power and volume - down. Then fastboot oem lock.. is that what our trying to do?

No, there isn't an option for USB debugging on the boot loader screen. A thread I saw said to make sure USB debugging is enable, not sure if it matters, but tried it anyway. "Fastboot oem lock" results in waiting for device, which makes sense since my USB drivers aren't recognizing the device.

Therevis no debugging option on the bootloader screen the only one is under settings developer options first option enable usb debugging.
Edit
Have you tried using a different port on your pc?
Have tried a different cord?
Edit 2
Turn off fastboot in setting then boot into bootloader. Once in bootloader make sure fastboot is highlighted then hit the power button it should then be in red if done correctly.

Make sure you download HTC drivers. Link on this thread:

And make sure you are using the OEM micro USB cable and not some third party one.
So I was given another HTC sensation recently but this time it's bricked and I don't know how to fix it.
I have a working HTC sensation phone to test that the driver work on win 8.1
The problem
When turning on the phone it goes to a black screen with HTC logo in the middle and 4 small triangles with exclamation point in each corner, from here I have to take out the battery to turn off the phone.
Holding Power+volume down brings up this screen as well so I can't get into bootloader/hboot using pwr+volume down, same thing with plugging in phone to usb
What I've been told
phone is s-off (I assume this means it has a some sort of custom recovery)
bricked when pulling out cable during RUU while trying to return to stock
What I've done/know
windows 8.1
plugged to USB 2.0 port
USB device not recognised when plugging in phone, in device manager in Android HTC device properties
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
A request for the USB BOS descriptor failed.

disabled driver signing security
install Android Universal Naked Driver in Win8 test mode
install Minimal ADB and fastboot utility
adb devices doesn't list any device
other adb command give "error: device not found"
fastboot command produces "waiting for device"
same with fastboot getvar cid
Thank you for any assistance you can give

I tried to replace the battery on my Nexus 5.
powered it down and opened it up. actual swap was done without incident​Now the phone does not recognize neithe of my batteries (old and replacement). I can boot it into bootloader just fine by plugging it in a charger, but the screen will show a battery with a ? in it when trying to boot the phone.
When I plug the phone in my PC, it will only get recognized as Forge HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3) under PORTS in Device Manager. I've tried the diag tool here: and all tests look fine.
Rooted, bootloader unlocked, ElementalX kernel, 5.1.1
Thanks for any help!
htc one s s3 bricked by flashing googy kernel 2.3.zip on slimkat rom . after flash phone can not reboot ,no fastboot mode ,no bootloader , no screen light, no vibration by pessing power button. but when connect charger or connect to pc led light works and pc show qdloader 9008 port in device manager
.help me to unbrick and sorry for bad english
I used the LG Flash Tool 2014 for my device to try to recover from a bricked phone. And I think i made it worse after using the kdz file and it completed 100%. I took the battery out and unplugged the phone when it was done. It wont even show anything on the screen now or go into recovery mode. But I do show RELINK HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM5) under the device options in my device manager when I connect the phone to the computer. Also it does make the device connected sound when I plug it in the computer. What can I do to get out of this mess? Thanks in the advance for any help that I can get.
Any help will be appreciated. THanks.
