ADB Not recognised - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
Hope you are all well!
I am having some issues with my hopefully-not-late Nexus 5 (hammerhead).
I originally wanted to flash AOSP 7.2.1 however during the process I ran into some troubles.
I flashed TWRP successfully, but TWRP does not start and reboots as it says it is not able to mount /data, etc... hence why the phone takes me to bootloader.
I have downloaded Minimal ADB and Fastboot from XDA, which works fine for fastboot, as it finds my device through "fastboot devices". However, adb does not recognise my Nexus 5, as it retrives an empty list of devices through "adb start-server" then "adb devices".
I have installed the latest drivers from the Google developers website, and I still get a yellow icon for both ADB drivers, i.e. Android ADB and Android Compounded ADB. Bootloader instead, works just fine as it recognises the devices when it is plugged in.
I am stuck trying to understand what I am doing wrong.
I had USB debuginng enabled before flashing TWRP and "lock state" is unlocked on recovery, as well as "secure boot" enabled.
I am using Windows 10.1 if it helps at all!
Thank you so much for your help in advance!
Quick update: I have noticed that when it boots into TWRP the device comes up for a couple of seconds, which means it is getting recognised but I cannot boot into TWRP. This is the error I get:

adb does not work in fastboot mode, only fastboot does. Is your data encrypted. Seems your /data partition is corrupted. You could use fastboot format data and see if it fixes it. Note that this will erase all data.

It may be best to use fastboot command to restore a stock rom, confirm everything is work, and start over.
You could also try using a different verizon of twrp.

that is the stock recovery
what were you trying to do?
I'm arrived at step "LOCK STATE - UNLOCKED". When i go on to download " clockwork recovery" and "superuser" mount all on the USB storage, in Recovery i see this.
Look my picture, in background, you see error logo.
No I see the stock recovery logo and that you're trying to flash through the stock recovery.
Sent from my MattedBlues CM7 Google Nexus S!
My Nexus S is UNLOCKED, because i read it in the Bootloader Interface.
I tried to continue the guide right to the end, but when i selected the Recovery i saw this:

After successfully unlocking the bootloader you need to install your custom recovery.
In "Fastboot" mode, (phone connected to computer via usb, phone on bootloader screen) your need to: assuming your working directory is sdk/tools...
at command prompt:
fastboot devices (make sure youo device is detected)
fastboot flash recovery "clockworkrecovery.img goes here" (no quotes)
reboot phone to recovery ( if you reboot back into android recovery will revert back to stock)
If followed the guide, maybe a few steps were missed.
Ok works!!!

[SOLVED] Problem with fastboot/recovery with TF300TG

There is some similiar threads about this, but I still haven't found solution to my problem. I also tried to post this same problem on general: (TF300TG)For All Your Jelly Bean discussions-problems, but I thought if this was better on troubleshooting.
I got problem with recovery/fastboot on tf300tg..
Background: I haven't root my tf300tg, I got 4.2.1 (10.6.2.11) and I have unlocked bootloader from Asus support and installed APX drivers to windows 7 which works with tf300tg. (even when it's not so needed?) Also I got USB debugging on.
Problem: When I press (Vol Down + Start) to get in bootloader and try to start RCK it gives me error ("Virhe" means error in finnish).

}
Second Problem: If I can't use recovery I could try to use fastboot. I downloaded ADB and tried to follow instructions but there is one problem with this. I can use fastboot only when my tf300tg is on normal mode. So I can't use fastboot in recovery or in bootloader mode. I'm not sure if I should use fastboot in normal mode (don't know if it's safe?) to install TWRP 2.6.0 (for tf300tg)
Normal mode:
APX mode/Bootloader mode:
EDIT: After 5 hours of finding, I found that reason was ADB version. Fixing this problem was download: minimal adb and fastboot program to windows.

Xiaomi Mi Box S Bricked

Hello,
I have a Xiaomi Mi Box S and when i was trying to download the newest update but the image got stuck at 60%, so i decided to unplug the power and got into the recovery menu to wipe the data and cache. In the middle of the process, i got a message saying that he couldn't mount several partitions. I unplugged the cable, once again, and since then the box bricked.
The only response i get from the box is a red light in the back of the box from the audio input. I can also connect it to the pc but i don't know what to do.
If you have any suggestion i would really appreciate.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply,
I followed the instructions and when i do adb devices it doesn't find any devices. The problem is that i can't boot into notinhg, not even the recovery menu to use adb.
Btw when i plugged it into the pc i get this.
Don't know if it helps or not.
If
Code:
adb devices
doesn't list any then my guess is that "USB debugging" didn't get enabled in Android Settings -> Developer options

My phone boot only on fastboot & recovery mode

Hi,
I have unfortunately erased my rom before install in my phone.
Result my phone can boot on “fastboot mode” (push down) and “recovery mode” (push up) but write “No OS installed”.
When I used PC for unlock my phone by USB, the PC can’t detect my phone and I am blocked.
My phone is over or what do you can do for save it ?
Thanks a lot.
If you can access fastboot your phone is fine. It seems like you just have a problem connecting it to your pc. Try another pc. When you get to fastboot install a custom recovery, and flash a new ROM from there

Be happy, you sucessfully entered Fastboot mode. Now direct Fastboot on PC per Windows CMD and/or PowerShell what action(s) to perform.
Fastboot Commands List and Cheat Sheet with Explanation
Fastboot is a command-line tool for Android. You can execute Fastboot commands to flash and boot factory and TWRP recovery images.

I have the same phone does anyone have the stock firmware ?
also where did you get the fastboot drivers for it? can you sent them to me ? please @jwoegerbauer @Synaronel
@IXDevoXI
Latest ADB and Fastboot drivers you can obtain here:
SDK Platform Tools release notes | Android Studio | Android Developers
Android SDK Platform-Tools is a component for the Android SDK.

I finally figured out the whole fastboot thing with this phone lol and which one you need to be in and so forth it is the most confusing phone I’ve ever tried to root but now I’m left with that stupid dm-verity corrupt issue
