Hey Guys,
Ive been using stock nexus s for a long time now, and decided to try out the new ICS room. Since i got a new PC, i had to install SDK, drivers etc. But no matter what I do, I get the unkown command when i run fastboot oem unlock. Ive done this before, and all the drivers and sdk shall be correctly installed. Ive tried reinstalling etc, but nothing seem to help.
Do anyone know what could be wrong?

When I reinstalled my SDK i hadnt noticed that ./adb had been moved to a different directory, and the SDK no longer comes with ./fastboot. If you do a quick google search, or a search on XDA, there are forums out there with links and uploaded copies. Actually I'll just put mine up here in a .zip archive. I moved ./adb and ./fastboot back in to my tools folder since it's what I'm used to.
Aha. That might be the case. I took the fastboot, from your zip and copy pasted it into the ./tools folder. Aldo grabbed the adb from platform-tools folder.
Still cant get it to work. Only ADB works so far. If i remember correctly i'm supposed to write "adb devices" and it will show the phone. This doesnt happend. I got android adb interface in device manager, and the drives should be ok.

So, ADB and fastboot operate under 2 different conditions.
Phone in boot loader:
fastboot devices should show a device
adb devices shows nothing
Phone booted normally or in recovery
fastboot devices shows nothing
adb devices shows a device
Fastboot won't do anything if the device is not in the boot loader. If you are in the boot loader the fastboot devices does not show your device then it's a driver issue.
If you get unknown command then fastboot then you aren't in the same cwd as fastboot or it's not in a folder listed in the PATH.

Great point. I had completely forgotten about that. Since your adb is working, run <code>./adb reboot bootloader</code>. Once your phone boots up and you see the funky android dude, you can use fastboot commands
The camand should be "adb oem unlock bootloader "

It doesn't use ADB at all. That may be what you have your local binary named, but it's fastboot. You need to be in the bootloader (where adb cannot work).
Fastboot is the utility used for unlocking the bootloader, flashing/erasing partitions, booting images (such as a kernel or recovery) without installing to the device.
ADB is the Android Debug Bridge.
This is just for clarity here, there's seemingly a lot of confusion.
Thanks for the clarification bud

Yeah. I was in bootloader mode. So then i guess the fastboot "path". that could be the problem then. Ill check it out when i get back from work. Thanks
Hey guys I have given up. Been looking at this for two days now and it will not work. Heres the problem.
I have ran X-factor unlock as per instructions and it ran successfully all the way to the point where it asked did I want to see the identifier token. I hit yes and then the it froze. Let it sit there for like 5 minutes and nothing. So I closed X-factor and open cmd and booted the phone into fastboot. Then I plugged my phone into my computer and ran the fastboot command "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" and I does nothing. I also tried running "fastboot devices" and still notthing. I have reinstalled htc sync manager, pdanet for the drivers, have tried all different version of fastboot and adb and nothing is working. What could I possibly be doing wrong? Pdanet recognizes that the phone is plugged into the pc and the phone recognizes it too but fastboot doesn't. Any help is appreciated.
Are you running the fastboot command from the folder where you extracted it ? And did you download the latest file of X-factor unlock ( First one had few bugs)
Extract the zip file which you downloaded and now open Command Prompt, change the directory to the folder where you extracted the fastboot zip.
Example ( if you extracted in Downloads Folder then) cd C:\Users\username\Downloads\fastboot-win32
then execute the command again " fastboot oem get_identifier_token"

I downloaded X-factor last night around 12a.m. And when I run the cmd I first hold down shift and then right click in my the folder android sdk/ platform tools. Adb, and fastboot along with several other files are in this folder. when running the command nothing happens. Cmd just adds another line.

I said in my firt post that I did.
I have tried adb devices and for some reason it works some times and other times I get nothing. I suppose X-Factor is using adb though and the adb part( the two backups and the reboot into fastboot) of X-Factors works all the time. Its only when the phone reboots into fastboot that the rest of the commands don't work with X-factor. Only once did it work and it said it was successfull- i go the 111111111 for my CID. But when I hit enter to view the token X-Factor did nothing.
I have another idea that might work. I was wonder what you guys thought. I have vmware running Mac Os and I was wondering if I could download the Mac tools to my vm and try running the commands that way. Since Mac doesn't doesn't need drivers do you think that would work?
I still haven't figure the problem out. So I just booted up Mac OS in vmware and used the mac fastboot and it work. Yay! unlocked bootloader! Now to flash super user.

Awesome! Thanks for updating us on how you got it to work. I guess I was one of the lucky ones that it worked the first time for.
That was a tough fix. Windows still will not recognize my device in adb or fastboot. I don't know what the problem is. But the only catch to running Mac Os in vmware is it is against the EULA so I am not telling you to try that. But It will work. I have been looking at this for 2 days now and I had to go install Mac Os in vmware and register with apple and all that good stuff before I could even start running commands. It was tough but I hope its worth it.
USB debugging
I have a Desire without OS, it can boot into fastboot. Is there any way to know if USB debugging was switched on from here? I tried to unlock the bootloader, im on S-ON, but keep getting errors:
C:\Users\Alienanihilator\Desktop\Roms\HTC Roms\HTC One X\HTC_fastboot_files>fast
boot oem get_identifier_token
...
(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY [ 0.016s]
finished. total time: 0.016s
Maybe has to do with USB debugging not being turned on before?
You're in the wrong forum, this is the One XL forum. You need to ask in the Desire forum.

Hey guys,
I have a problem that hopefully someone can help me with. Any help is much appreciated. I got my phone a year ago and I rooted it and unlocked it immediately. I removed the stock ROM and put Clean Rom 4.5 on it. Today, I realized my phone could be manually updated to jelly bean, so i wanted to install CM 10.1.
During installation, I just put the boot.img of the Rom in my folder that contained adb, fastboot, etc and I was at the step of loading recovery to install the rom, my phone could not get into the recovery and just kept restarting over and over again. I can still get into the bootloader. I read online to try and type "fastboot erase cache", but that isnt working because my computer can no longer recognize the phone. When I go into bootloader and into fastboot, my computer makes the sound like the USB is recognized but when I type the command "adb devices", no device is showing up.
I'm guessing that my first step to hopefully solving this issue is to find a way to have my device show up when I type "adb devices" but my attempts so far have been futile.
Key Points:
- Can't get past HTC boot screen (keeps looping)
- can still access bootloader
- no device seen when command "adb devices" has been typed.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I should add that when this occured (the looping), I tried to flash "recovery clockwork touch 5.8.2.7" and I was accidentally following a guide meant for the European HTC One X. The recovery image that I should have used (and did use to flash Clean Rom) is "TWRP 2.2.0 evita".

ADB is a program that gives you control of your phone "terminal" or "command line" remotely. It requires you to be booted into your ROM with USB debugging turned on so ofcourse it won't show any devices while in bootloader.
There are at least 20 threads that ask this same question. How do I know? I've answered at least that amount just myself. Please use the search function in the future prior to asking. I'm so tired of wasting time answering the same questions over and over.
Download TWRP 2.3.3.1 <- latest version that works properly without any issues with any ROMs
Check MD5 <- If you don't have an md5 checker google and download one. This will verify the download is good.
Put your phone in bootloader/fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Select recovery from bootloader menu
Flash your rom from recovery.

Hey, thanks for the reply. Yeah, I read up on ADB after i posted the thread. I learnt that you can't use ADB commands in the bootloader. I've been trying to flash the recovery but i keep getting "waiting for device". (regardless of what command i try). I don't think its the USB drivers because I downloaded the latest HTC drivers (in fact there is a thread about the latest USB drivers for HTC, which is where I downloaded from) and there isn't any exclamation points in device manager. Not really sure what the issue is, any additional help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

USBDeview just uninstall whatever devices you want reinitialized especially since they can change even with rom changes so it is good to clear some old ones out by sorting them based on Last Plug/Unplug Date.
Found that in another thread, going to try that. Hopefully that will work.

I just install the latest HTC sync. It installs the latest driver.
Also, try to avoid using a USB hub if you are.
Make sure HTC Sync isn't running when you are using fastboot/adb
Worst case scenario, you could always create a VM or something to get it going.

I can now run the fastboot commands, but in the twrp recovery I can't access my SD card. I'm currently following a guide to see if I can fix it, but yeah thats where I am at. Also, a window popped up in my windows 8 saying "You need to format the disk...". Should I do that or what, Im not exactly sure.

Alright, following a video tutorial (http://forums.team-nocturnal.com/showthread.php/1050) and factory reset the phone. My SD card is wiped clean but I can mount it through the TWRP recovery. Since I don't have a ROM now, I'm debating what I should do: a) Go back to Clean ROM 4.5, b) Install CM 10.1 Nightlies or c) Install Clean ROM 6.5.
***TAMPERED***
***UNLOCKED***
S-ON

Is there anything I should know before attempting to flash CM 10.1/Clean ROM 6.5 or should I return to Clean ROM 4.5.
Thanks for the helps. Really appreciate it.
Either should work fine. Cleanrom will have somewhat bettery battery life.

another good tip is that when you are in fastboot mode and write "adb devices" not will work because adb will just work when your phone is turned on inside the android, and fastboot not will work if you arent in mode fastboot
Hey Folks!
I got the following problem...
I have unlocked the bootloader of my HTC One mini. After that it doesn't reboot.
It's possble to enter bootloader and recovery but adb commands doesn't work...
The newest htc drivers are installed. adb tells: "no device found"
What can i do now? No system to boot and no possibility to run adb commands.
I dont have found a StockRUU for this phone to make a recovery.
This device is a german HTC One mini from Vodafone Germany.
Thanks alot for help!
Try flash via Fastboot. ADB requires the phone to be switched on
Hi. I cant install ROM via fastboot. i have downloaded cm11.zip and when i try "fastboot update cm11.zip" it says:
archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'
archive does not contain 'android-product.txt'
error: update package has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt
So do you have a link to a stock rom (RUU) from vodafone germany?
Or what can i do to get this phone run. Please help. Thanks!
There is no German RUU. They're is only a at&t US RUU available. why try cm11? it isn't complete yet. have you tried flashing Magio or one of the stock roms? And have you flashed the boot.img from the rom zip also?

Hi RuffBuster,
currently the phone is unlocked and tempered. But when i enter the bootloader it shows "S-ON"
Its not possible to install CM11 on the phone, because its a ZIP File and that must be on the "SD Card"
I am not able to change the CID for other ROMS. I have downloaded the ROM from cingular,
but it doesnt installs - i think its because the CID is set on Vodafone Germany...
What should i do? I cant copy any ROM on the phone because it's not mountable to the PC.
Do you have a good idea what i can do?
When i try the following: "fastboot flash boot.img" or "fastboot update boot.img"
it says:
C:\adb>fastboot update boot.img
EOCD not found, not Zip
error:
C:\adb>fastboot flash boot.img
unknown partition 'boot.img'
error: cannot determine image filename for 'boot.img'
has ADB worked before? What windows are you using? your CID shouldn't matter if you use one of the WWE stock builds.

Before I do that I got to install the ROM, right?
And the problem on that is that I can't copy the zip to my phone...
Any idea how to solve that?
Have you tried the command "ADB devices" does this show your device connected? also are you using windows 7? You can use the "push" command to copy the rom zip to your phone. or if you have a OTG cable you can use a USB flash drive and install from that.

If you are running Winsows 8 or 8.1 there are no drivers i guess and ADB will not work because of that.
If you´ve got the chance to use another windows version try this.
And read about adb sideload to push the rom zip file to the phone to be able to flash it in TWRP.

Then ADB push your Rom zip & latest SuperSu zip to /data/local
In TWRP look for the /data/local folder. Flash the rom zip then the supersu zip

Hi. The Problem is, that adb cannot detect the device so I can't push files.
"C:\adb>adb push revone /data/local
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found"
Do you have the same problem before?
your ADB isn't setup right. What HTC drivers are you using? I used the driver's that installed using the phone when htc sync manager connects thru USB cable. Maybe try different drivers and make sure htc sync manager is disabled while connecting to ADB. Also I'm sure you need java SDK installed to use ADB, I may be wrong. Search Google for a proper ADB installation guide. And maybe you need to run command prompt with windows administration rights.
it just sounds like your ADB setup is wrong. I'm not an expert with this. But if you keep having this issue invest in a OTG cable and install from flash drive.

not sure about CWM, but with TWRP you can install from a USB flash drive or copy zip to phone and install from there. I've done this myself. The cables can be bought cheap from eBay.
I think you could also use a female to female USB adaptor and put that on your USB sync cable to turn it into a OTG cable. This would be a very cheap option but untested by me, so maybe stick with the normal OTG cable.
Also from my tests only flash drives are supported, not USB hard drives.
BUT... I just thought you might still have to use ADB to flash the boot.img file from the zip. But it may work without doing so... Maybe... Have a look at triggers roms maybe you can get away without needing to flash boot.img. try asking trigger about this.
your best bet is to try following one of the ADB guides on Google to fix your ADB installation.

How can i solve that? Thanks alot!
hi, I know there are lots of threads like this on forums, but they made no sense for me.
adb does recognize my sensation but fastboot doesn't.
when I enter the adb devices command it shows up but when I enter the fastboot devices, even in fastboot mode, it doesn't show up.

hi, I know there are lots of threads like this on forums, but they made no sense for me.
adb does recognize my sensation but fastboot doesn't.
when I enter the adb devices command it shows up but when I enter the fastboot devices, even in fastboot mode, it doesn't show up.

No, I mean, after that command I get to the fastboot menu (as you said it shows up fastboot usb), and then I send a fastboot command, and then I get no response.

thanks for reply, actually I'm not new to this, I've rooted my phone a long time ago, now the problem is that the phone is not recognized by the windows in fastboot mode (there are lots of threads about this but non of them worked for me.), and I tried every drivers available, naked, htc sync drivers, PDAnet, etc, and the android SDK and adb and etc are OK and I even reinstalled them.
can you help please?
thanks again.

thanks for helping, ubuntu works fine, but the problem is with win8, and since I was trying to flash some RUU so I needed win8, btw I'm now using win7 with no problems.
