Hey guys I have unlocked my TF300T using the Asus tool.
I am able to into Fastboot mode on the device however in fastboot.exe the command fastboot devices returns no results.
I went back and tried everything with my Galaxy Nexus and that appears fine.
I have a feeling it is the drivers. The install fails when I plug it in giving a yellow question mark. I have tried the drivers from every link I can find on here and installed them manually. No go.
I also have the SDK which has the USB driver ticked and installed, but that does not seem to be helping.
Anyone know where I might find a driver that helps?
Ok seems I tried every single driver I could except for the one in the Asus install!
All good now and flashing
Hey all,
I've got a new-to-me TF700. Got CROMBi-KK installed, which took some backflips as I could not get fastboot connectivity.
I'd like to be setup for NvFlash (but then never need it), so even though I don't need fastboot right now, I'm feeling the lack.
Data transfer works fine.
ADB (not fastboot) works fine (adb shell gets me a shell, etc, etc)
When I put the phone in fastboot/bootloader "fastboot devices" gets an empty response "fastboot reboot" gets no response.
In Win7 device manager, the TF700, which appears in the "portable devices" section normally when I plug it in, does not appear.
So... probably device drivers.
Have you had this problem on your w7/64 box? How did you fix it? Sorry, but "install linux" isn't all that helpful.
Thanks!
From a semi-related question I'd asked, berndblb mentioned

Windows is infamous for driver problems.....
Connect the tab in fastboot and open device manager. Near the top you should have an entry for Android device, bootloader mode or something similar, and probably a yellow ! next to it.
Right click it and choose "update driver", let Windows search for it.
If you're lucky it'll install the driver by itself.
If not: What Windows version are you running?

Yep, I get an "unknown device" in the USB section when I connect a TF700 in fastboot. Win can't find an appropriate driver. I've tried (manually) ASUS_Android_USB_Drivers and Universal_Naked_Driver_0.72 (both, AFAIR, from the xda tf700 forums). Neither worked.
So... if you got this going, what driver did you use? Thx!
I have a Win7 32 bit laptop and this cool little tool installed the drivers for me:

I'd installed that previously (easiest way to setup fastboot). Re-downloaded, re-installed. Went fine. Still no fastboot.
Unzipped the exe, looked at the drivers being installed - labeled "google". No google driver in the driver cache (so no device ever associated with it.)
Looked at the driver error again. Code 43. That means hardware or driver. I'd been taking it to mean driver, but... switched the USB cable to a port in the rear of the PC - and it worked.
Thanks!
So, for anybody with a similar issue, install the package above. If that doesn't work, maybe try a different USB port.
Hello
I need help with my TF700.
I had this tablet for some time. It was unlocked with TWRP and ZOMBI-POP.
Last week I wanted to upgrade it for KIT-Kass 7.1
I wanted to update my TWRP for kang wersion ( 2.8.7.4) through TWRP and during the process it rebooted.
Then I've got a bootloop on normal starting. I can't get into recovery mode through power + vol up - tablet has no respond for that
I can only go to fastboot through power + vol down but when I connect it to windows with adb drivers or to linux(FWUL) it sees no device and no respond for any command.
Do You have any idea what to do ?
Thank You in advance
Sorry to say this but, if you can't send it commands then you are most likely hard bricked. What OS are you running on the computer with fastboot on it? - NP

This sounds not so good. I use windows 10 but as I said also I used FWUL to try.

Do you have access to a Windows 7 computer/laptop. There's an issue with Windows 10 and the fastboot drivers not working together, and causing a problem like yours. - NP

Found this in another thread, windows 10 fix. - NP
"I used Windows 10 and had to disable driver signature enforcement. Once I did this the PC recognized the tab without issue. "
To disable;
http://www.thewindowsclub.com/disable-driver-signature-enforcement-windows
Thank You for the info, but I have laptop with Windows7 and still the same.
But if I have text on screen like this Starting fastboot USB download protocol can the device still be hard-bricked ?
Maybe I am missing some drivers ?
I would d/l Minimal ADB and Fastboot from here;
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
and Universal_Naked_Driver_0.72 here; - NP
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263822
For now the problem is I can not install the "naked driver" because devices manager can not see TF700 when it is connected, so I can't update the driver
Have you tried sending the [fastboot reboot] command to see if the tablet will reboot. When I bricked my TF201t my laptop didn't see it but it still took the commands allowing me to wipe the recovery partition and install the correct TWRP. - NP
Dear Guys
I know that this topic is quite old, but I am still fighting with this problem.
I tryied different drivers, 3 different computers ( two with windows 10 one with windows 7) and I can;t connect to fastboot.
The tablet is in this mode, but when I will use adb and type any command like fastboot reboot - it displays "waiting for device"
Do You have any idea what else can I try ?
Best regards
Hi,
me too! I was using it at lunch - no problem. Got home and turned it on and unrecoverable bootloader error.
Hello,
I am hoping for some advice on how to revert my phone back to its original "factory settings" after a botched instal of GrapheneOS onto an unlocked Google Pixel 3A.
I got to the point at which I needed to Flash the Graphene Rom to the phone, but rather than installing, I received a message from Smart Screen MS edge asking if I really wanted to run as it's protecting my PC - I clicked run anyway and a blank command line window appeared for a second. Now my pc doesn't seem to be recognising the pixel 3A when I type ADB devices. My phone is currently in Fastboot mode "unlocked" and I'm hoping for some advice on what to do next. I'm total noob, so unsure how to start the process over (return the phone to it's previous state) before, maybe, trying again on a different PC.
I have since turned on my phone and Android 11 is still present and seems to work fine (however it gives me a warning on startup that the bootloader is unlocked.
Any help would be very much appreciated - thank you in advance.
Is all what happened that your phone now:
complains about "'maybe not safe bootloader unlocked".
This is just what android does when the bootloader is unlocked.
This you did before trying the flash.
If you want the warning gone simply lock it again.
However if you into the market for graphene OS then I would recomend: along with following their guide to a t to also read up here on xda about the general rooting unlocking thing a bit more so you get the overall process a bit better perhaps next time.
About windows. There are so many tools out there to help ya with disabling some of it's spying, turning off smartscreen, auto - uploads of all your data to M$oft, etc etc.
It's not hard to find.
Thanks for the response - I think I've worked out what is going on.
Typing ADB devices, my PC recognises the phone until I put it into fastboot mode - typing adb devices when in fastboot comes back with nothing and therefore when I try to flash, I assume the devices aren't talking to each other.
Not sure if there's a work around or whether it's a case of finding a new PC to try it on?
Thanks again.
Ignore

try another USB port first; use USB 2.0 if available! Reinstall google ADB drivers, make sure to use latest!
If above will not help:
on your computer: open device manager; on your phone: put your phone into fastboot; connect your phone to the computer WHILE keeping an eye on device manager; as soon as you'll connect your phone new device will appear in device manager ("unknown device" most likely but it might be some "android device" or "ADB device" too); right click it —> update driver —> automatic driver update worked in most cases for me, if not, go manual way and select google's "android fastboot device" (or something like that, can't remember actual name of the device); after driver install confirmation you should be good to go

Hey there,
This is brilliant - thanks for all the advice. Having this support is helping me gain the confidence to learn more, research more, and then give it a go.
All the best.

thats if I am not wrongly remembering my experience:
because now your phone is in fastboot mode thus it won't show up with that command anymore.
Try: 'fastboot devices'
I imagine you put it into fastboot through: 'reboot fastboot' when you where in adb?
When in fastboot you can go on and flash the recovery and such.
Are you still in need of help here?
Hey, thanks for the clarification - been away and so haven't implemented all suggestions, yet.
I typed "adb reboot booloader" which I assumed put it into fastboot mode and then unlocked it using "fastboot flashing unlock".
I tried fastboot devices but the PC still doesn't see the phone. I'm going to try the update usb driver suggested by Tamsta_T and see how it goes.
Thanks for your help.
Hello!
I cant get my Windows 11 virtual machine to detect my Xiaomi 12 when its in Fastboot mode. Does any one happen to have any ideas to solve this?
It shows up as 'Android' in device manager. I've also attempted to install a drivers manually and none of them seem to be acceptable. Weirdly, my Xiaomi 12 is recognised when its in regular, usb transfer mode and the MiUnlockTool by Francesco Tescari even recognises it then too. For context, debugging mode and enable bootloader settings have been enabled in MIU 13.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

First thing to do is install this device drivers https://androidmtk.com/download-xiaomi-usb-drivers , then reboot and try to reconnect your device. This may fix our problem.

Thanks for the suggestion! I will attempt these. Fingers crossed
I have previously attempted to install adb driver but had some trouble. When installing using Device Manager, the locate .inf dialog refuses to accept my selection. I dont seem to be any error. When attempting to do so via the folder (and sub folders) it says no drivers found. Perhaps i'm doing this totally wrong?
Thanks again for your suggestion @WhiteCoffeeCat .
I've attempted to install the drivers. The Qualcomm worked fine but I've been unable to install the ADB driver. I've tried to bypass driver signatures and ect and even that didnt work.
So as of now, when my Xiaomi is in fastboot mode, it shows up as 'Android' in device manager.

Put Windows into testing mode before installing drivers in Miflash, adb.. Run cmd prompt as admin and type bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON or bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF for disabling testing mode.
Thanks @Stefke93 ! I gave that a try but still had the same outcome as before.
That said, I did find a way to resolve the problem i had....So i was able to install the ADB drivers in Device manager, I added a legacy hardware, selected Universal Serial Bus Function devices, and from their i found ADB usb driver. After that, it started to work fine.
Thanks everyone for the help. Got there in the end... I guess due to my back luck so far i was due a win... i didnt have to wait to unlock, i could do so immediately.

Hello, the same thing happened to me yesterday, I'll explain: you connect your Xiaomi 12 in fastboot mode, you right click on My PC and select manage, device manager, select the android device and right click, update driver, search for driver in my PC, choose drivers available on my PC, show all devices, use disk and look for the folder where you have saved the file that I am attaching (android_winusb), select Android ADB Interface and click Next, Done.

Hey,
So I had so many issues installing the drivers to allow my VM to detect my phone in fastboot mode.
This is what worked for me (quote below). I swear I attempted this a number of times with different cables and it eventually worked. Mine seemed to work with an apple usb C cable instead othe official xiaomi cable with a usb c converter for the m1 mac.

Hi Tek,
I have had many issues with windows and fastboot,
some cables would work with some of the ports and then not.
My pc has 12 usb ports, yet it was still hit and miss whether fastboot would work on my Poco F3.
I tried your tip and after using a cheapy Targus 4 port usb adaptor, my "FASTBOOT PROBLEMS ARE NOW SOLVED"
now what am i going to do with my 7 surplus USB-C Cables
Many thanks for your TIP
