Adb in normal startups and fastboot in bootloader mode ( after pressing power + volume down ) are not working
Could anyone tell me how to solve this Thanks in advance
Have you enabled USB Debugging?
I don't think there's an option to enable USB Debugging in the original system before getting into fastboot and rooting the device.
Are you able to boot into the ROM? You just can't use adb & fastboot?
Yes I can boot into the ROM. It's the original ROM. And I can't use adb or fastboot.
You have a start button? Try start + power to boot into fastboot mode.
Thanks for your reply&time.
I believe that power + volume down is the way to boot into fastboot now, and after booting into fastboot and connecting the USB line, (fastboot devices) command in the computer (tried Mac OS X 10.8, Windows XP virtual machine and Windows 7) shows no device connected. When using start+power, my device boots normally into the original rom.
All right. I think I just got rid of the fastboot issue. There's something missing with the driver. I'll post my solution after I verify it and flash DPRom successfully.
The problem is acutually pretty silly. A proper adb driver is required for fastboot.
I installed tineprogramming's adb driver to fix it.

I want to root my tablet so I flashed TWRP 2.6.0.0 using fastboot everything works fine.
But now I want to install the zip to root the tablet, problem is TWRP cannot mount any storage, internal sdcard external sdcard nothing at all is alway says E:Can't mount 'xxx' on anything I tap.
I tried CWM, and 2.5.0.0 and nothing seems to work.
I can boot fine in the stock OS, everything works fine but that
My bootloader is 10.6.1.27.1-20130711
Can anyone help me?
Ok now it is bad, I tried to factory reset using the bootloader (power + volume down)
It booted in the buged TWRP and now it keeps booting in TWRP and I cannot even reach the bootloader
Try using adb commands to boot into bootloader.
ADB reboot-bootloader is the command that I think you must use. Of course, use adb devices to see if your tab is listed.

I cannot get this to work on Windows 8, I have Asus Transformer ADB interface lister in device manager but I cannot see my device with the adb devices command.
Also, in TWRP when I try adb sideload it says failed.
win 8 is the worst OS you want to use when it comes to fastboot/adb (even with secpol.msc full admin access)
get your hands on a win7 / vista /xp
oh and TWRP2.6 is kinda bugged - flash 2.5 or lower
check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12 but skip the steps you dont need (system, data userdata etc.)

I'm now on my laptop with Win7,
Ok so I tried to reset my device with a needle, but I cannot get it to the bootloader.
Still stuck in TWRP, I tried to go with ADB, I installer google usb driver from Android SDK, I cannot get it to be recognized by ADB, in the device manager I only see Transformer with a yellow "!", I tried with the Asus usb driver, nothing either.
Is there something else I can do to get this recognized with ADB? (fastboot doesn't work either)
I tried unpluging all, uninstalling all and reinstalling like 3 times.
Thanks for your help

fastboot should work. hold Vol-down and reset the device and keep vol-down pressed. it should go to fastboot. when you're in fastboot connect it to your laptop and see if the OS recognized your device - if not you have a driver issue. resolve that by installing the asus driver or the newest google generic drivers.
when you can see your device on dosprompt/powershel with fastboot devices then continue with getting recovery to work.
btw- stuck in twrp means? booting twrp (teamwin screen) but not responding?
good luck

but you are still able to boot into android?
I was until I tried a factory reset, it wasn't working in Android so I did it in the fastboot menu.

can you boot into twrp? and i mean just boot into it? so that you see install, backup, restore etc. buttons?
if yes - twrp has an adb mode
connect your tab in twrp to your pc (check that you can see it - adb devices) if yes type: adb reboot bootloader
and you should boot into that. test it with fastboot devices.
most important thing is that you get into fastboot or a working recovery to flash or prepare to flash a (custom) rom back onto your device.

I can get in TWRP on 2.5.0.0
But when I try ADB sideload it fails
The message is ADB sideload complete - Failed in red + lots of errors like Unable to mount '/data' '/cache' /system' pratically everything (note that I had the same problem of mounting when I was able to boot into Android)

learn to crawl before you run :angel:
Well I rooted 4 different android device and not a single one of them wasn't able to mount anything in recovery mod. I knew exactly what I was doing until I got in the recovery mod who won't even recognize my internal storage meanwhile I was able to perfectly boot in Android

dude - you can't boot into android anymore, you can't boot into fastboot to your own accord - yet you try to sideload stuff in twrp for what ever reason.
i gave you more hints and tips in my previous posts and link to get it to work yet it eems you did none.
so don't get me wrong - but what excactly is your goal here?
My goal is to get it working again...
I don't know if you've been reading my post but I did try everything you told me without sucess.
None of the tips I tried got me adb or fastboot working the sideload mode of TWRP doesn't work.

yes i read your posts - but im still unclear what you are trying to accomplish with sideload?
ok from the start:
when in twrp - connect your tab to your laptop - is windows working with it (drivers ok?) "adb devices" shows the device? if yes - adb reboot-bootloader (or fastboot reboot bootloader, not quite sure atm since i'm at work without micro usb cable) when issued the command is the tab rebooting? - and if yes, is it rebooting into twrp or fastboot? what screen is shown after that?

Windows isn't working with it, I tried Google usb driver, asus usb driver, universal adb driver, none of them work, this is where i'm stuck

when its connected - is device manager at least showing it as faulty or not at all? (yellow triangle exclamation mark thingy, i just installed asus on my VM) -> see attached file
UPDATE: I succeeded to go in fastboot mode
I couldn't get my tab to be recognized by windows so I installer my Nexus 4 using the toolkit, when it was succesfully installed I could manually install my tab since the "android devices" option appeared in the list when you want to manually install a driver in the devices manager. So I could choose Asus ADB interface.
Now I can boot into Android, but it will go into TWRP as soon as I restart my tablet.
Now I will try the link you sent me to get TWRP recognize my storage so I can flash a new rom, I will let you know if something go wrong.
Thanks for helping
Hi Team,
Greetings.
I have been using LG Nexus 5 running cm12.1 but since the moment I updated the phone to cm13 I have started facing lots of troubles. The phone boots up and stuck on cm logo also I did something and the twrp recovery is not seen anymore instead I only have cyanogemode recovery which is driving me nuts. The present situation I am facing is I can't connect my phone to the pc for me to reinstall twrp. I really appreciate your help in this matter.
Thanks a lot for your time.
Merry Christmas!
Jinson Jose.
So the phone is not detected when connected in fastboot mode? Adb commands are often used when the phone has fully booted into the installed rom.

Hi Yes the phone is not detected and I tried adb commands too but in vain. I guess I messed up the phone while I am on cyanogenmode recovery by trying to format the phone.
Is the phone detected when you connect the phone to the computer in fastboot mode? ADB commands will not work in fastboot mode as you need to use fastboot commands.
Maybe it might be the PC drivers? I lost connection too and managed to restore it by using the driver setup module in Wugfresh's Nexus Root Toolkit. It will walk you through removing vestiges of old drivers and help install new drivers.

No the phone is not detected. All I can see is a usb sign and it says nexus 5. I can't open nexus 5 files.
The computer is a Windows xp or win7 machine?
No devices are found and you run a fastboot command?

Hi Thanks for your reply. The Machine is Windows 10. I tried fastboot commands as seen in one of the google searches. When I connect the phone it is not detected. I was able to see the nexus but I think I messed things by trying to factory reset and wipe cache using cyanogenmode recovery. Now the computer shows only universal serial bus devices when I connect the phone.
OP, hello...? Am I inaudible/illegible? Have you tried setting up the ADB/Fastboot via NRT as I suggested?
I don't use Win10. I do all of my flashing on a Win7 x64 machine and everything works perfectly when I am dealing with my Nexus 4, Nexus 5, and nexus 7.
I use Win10 with no problems. It must be the driver setup. NRT will fix it for the OP if he can clear whatever is preventing him seeing my post...
When I try to install the USB Drivers It fails with an error message.
ADB devices works, but fastboot devices doesnt.
I'm on Windows 10.
Are you in bootloader-fastboot mode, when trying fastboot command? Since you need to be, for fastboot commands to work.
Fastboot commands only work in bootloader-fastboot mode.
adb commands only work when booted to OS, or alternately booted to custom recovery TWRP (when applicable).

Yes, I'm trying fastboot from the bootloader screen.
On windows 8.1 it works, I can install the needed drivers, on windows 10 I cannot. Doesn't work. I wonder why adb works but fastboot doesn't.
I had this exact issue up until today, and this what I did to get fastboot on my shield tablet:
1. Uninstall all adb usb drivers just to make sure you start from a clean slate.
2. Then go to Nvidia (https://developer.nvidia.com/gameworksdownload#?search=SHIELD Family Windows USB) and download their Nvidia shield tablet drivers.
3. While plugged into the computer (have the tablet set to transfer files or mtp) go to the Bootloader menu on your shield tablet and then on your computer go to device manager and update the drivers. For me the device showed up as Fastboot, right click and select update drivers from the folder that you unzipped your nvidia shield tablet drivers to. When I did this I actually got an 'This device cannot start. (Code 10)' error message but I think this is okay because when I looked at the device manager again a new listing had appeared near the top called Android Composite Device.
4. Now go through the exact same process to install the drivers that you did for the 'fastboot' device but now for the 'Android Composite Device', you should also still get the 'This device cannot start. (Code 10)'. After you've done all that reboot the Shield Tablet.
5. Once the tablet has rebooted go to command prompt with Administrator Privledges and type ADB devices and your device should show up, then type adb reboot bootloader and the tablet will reboot into the bootloader menu. I this point I did not select fastboot protocol and I'm not sure if this made a difference, but in any case in the command prompt type Fastboot devices and at least for me this finally worked.
I hope this helps.
Thank you Captain_FSU! :good:
I had the same problem. My Shield K1 was showing up on adb devices but not at fastboot devices. I was unable to update the driver. In Win 10 Device Manager my Shield was showing up at Portable Devices and it was impossible to install the driver there. So finally I am able to unlock bootloader and install TWRP.
I have a X96Q H313 tv box I'm trying to unlock bootloader to flash ROM, root and all. Using Adb for this the device is being detected but when I reboot to bootloader the device does not show up in fastboot. Any fixes for this?
Dont use fastboot with ip you can only use fastboot with cable.
Or you have to manually connect the adb through IP

Well I use a cable. A USB A-A cable
ADB and Fastboot require different USB drivers.
Search for, download and install the Android USB driver for your TV box.
Good day guys please I can't really do much on my X96Q as its not been seen in fastboot but its showing up in ADB. I've searched online and tried all to no avail can anyone make a copy of the driver for me please. I use a windows 10
Edit: its sorted I installed a Linux virtual machine on my PC instead and its showing up in fastboot. But trying to unlock the bootloader is giving the below attached error message

Thanks I couldn't find the drivers though and in the process I messed up even the ADB driver. So i installed a Linux virtual machine on my PC instead and its showing up in ADB and fastboot now. But trying to unlock the bootloader is giving the below attached error message. OEM unlock is activated and all other relevant options in developer options ticked any solutions?
Whattt
No
To unlock the bootloader you do:
fastboot oem unlock
