Newflasher not detecting device in fastboot but fastboot does - Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers

Hi guys
Title explains everything really.. I get the no device with id... error when trying to flash device using newflasher. I have installed all the drivers and everything and shows perfectly fine in device manager (Android fastboot interface) forgot exact name as not near my PC rn
When using fastboot devices or fastboot reboot it works perfectly.. I can have fastboot and newflasher loaded at the same time and only fastboot.exe will recognise my phone and be functioning in fastboot mode.
I have tried to use the program on the same machine but with a different windows installation... I will try on another machine when I get home but I'm really hoping this isn't a device issue...
I have suspicion because I tried to update to latest pie version without wiping data and deleted files like fota_reset.ta and userdata.sin from the firmware folder but this actually corrupted the phone looool.. So now I'm on oreo (from a very old TWRP backup) and there's no way I can update FW or use newflasher..

No OS... TWRP won't display files on otg/sd

I had a bit of a problem with CM and it kept saying trebuchet had stopped working. (This is after the phone had been running fine for a whole year with CM. Then the phone kept restarting and saying trebuchet had stopped working and it would constantly restart until it calmed down. I decided to install and alternative launcher but the problem didn't totally go.
Thereafter I decided to delete trebuchet from root and boom the phone never calmed down and kept restarting. Eventually I tried restoring factor settings and it says now that there's no OS.
I had TWRP installed before but now when I've tried to install the latest one, it doesn't show any files on the OTG. I've put twrp on the SD along with a rom as well but nothing shows at all.
Can someone help in simple terms?

Use adb commands to flash TWRP (Put your TWRP image in the same folder on your pc as your adb and enter each command separately):
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (latest version is 3.1.1-0-peregrine, remame it to twrp.img - if that doesn't work rename twrp to recovery.img and try that).
fastboot reboot
If that works, restore you last known good working backup or try re-installing your stock rom.

Install or re-install your Motorola Device Manager on your pc from this link: https://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/solution/MS88481
Check in your pc Device Manager to see if your device is connected and recognized properly when you plug in the USB cable.
In the folder where your adb and fastboot files are, open a command prompt and enter adb devices to see if the phone is recognized now in adb. If it is, proceed as suggested earlier.

I managed to get the device to finally track on with adb. It tracks fine now. However I can't seem to flash a rom on regardless of whether its OTG or sideload...

Go to this link (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/rom-stock-motorola-4g-lollipop-rom-t3142816) and download the correct untouched rom for your phone model and transfer it to your sd card or internal memory.
Then try this command: fastboot boot recovery.img or fastboot boot twrp.img
and follow the directions exactly in the op in that thread to flash the rom.

Absolutely no idea how but I managed to get one of the CM roms sideloaded and even though when i chose to reboot it said no OS. I've got it going, however I've forgotten to put gapps on so I'll try that now. Later on I'll try sideload stock rom or something and see how that goes. Thanks for the help so far! :good:

The problem with CM roms is they're not really being updated anymore - just one of the problems I have with a lot of custom roms besides the bugs, etc., etc.
If you're hell bent on a custom rom, I would check out this one: [ROM][OFFICIAL][Peregrine][7.X] LineageOS 14.1 at https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-0-t3469103
Lineage is the new go-to from CM. I personally would go back to stock first, however, to ensure everything is restored properly before installing it.
It's being updated regularly currently.
I just had a old CM rom downloaded from before hence I went to that lol. I'm trying lineage for now but I've also downloads the stock ROM. Whatever will keep the phone going

bricked shield?

hi guys,
i my shield is stuck on the nvidia logo when booting normally, if it brings up the bootloader, it shows unlocked but hitting continue caused it to freeze on the screen, recovery freezes on nvidia logo and fastboot protocol just brings it back to this screen. i orginally installed twrp and it confirmed successful flash of new os .... on reboot it bricked to its now state, i cant get into twrp or get my pc to see it to install a new copy
anyone got any ideas
thanks
@Fairmax don't click continue, it freezes because there is nothing to continue to, as long as you can enter bootloader your device isn't fully bricked. So, to fix your problem you will have to download official ROM from nvidia's site (https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-open-source find your model and click recovery images).
When you download latest ROM unzip it and follow the textual guide, but, there will be one file missing (i can't remember which one, user data maybe or something like that), don't worry and just continue with the next step. After you flash just reboot to system by holding power button. Good luck !
i cant seem to get it to be recognised by windows all i get is this-- Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) A request for the USB device descriptor failed.--
trying to install nvidia usb driver via have disk bring up an error that the file is not usable with x64 system
ok after many driver reinstall iv got device manager to say android adb interface but still not showing on on device list in cmd

Well of course adb devices shows no devices because you are not actually in adb mode, you are in the bootloader mode. Just download minimal fastboot and adb, install it and extract recovery image into the folder where you installed minimal adb and fastboot (you don't need any other drivers).After you did this and your device is in bootloader and connected, click on the path in your fastboot & adb folder and delete everything and type cmd. No need to do adb devices, just proceed with fastboot flash ...

You can also try flashing twrp and then lineageos or something from twrp.

Hello I had a similar issue with my k1 tablet and ended up flashing factory images via adb fastboot and all flashed fine. Now my tablet is stuck on the boot screen with the green and white nvidia logo. How long does it take to boot please?
I have same issue too. I can load TWRP and flash the other partitions but TWRP shows un-mountable partitions and even a full stock ROM flash will not allow it to boot. I have a similar issue with a recall tablet. what did you do to fix it?

screwed up , any assist appreciated

hello
you cant flash fastboot rom in twrp . download one that is not fastboot . links in this thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3792244
about not recognized as an internal ... . make sure you installed adb and fastboot drivers .
lalala
i can't get a recovery flashable zip to the phone now anyway.
i did reload adb and oneplus drivers this morning and then again after your reply to make sure.
i did notice the phone shows as a oneplus6 in devices while in twrp but when i switch to bootloader it changes to just android device?
So still stuck.
Between last night and this morning have many hours trying to get it working somehow.
no twrp just bootloader now
rebooted the phone and lost twrp.
tried to flash it and it says failed remote failed to load authenticate boot image :load error
i need to start fresh somehow
*I can't even turn the phone off now, it reboots to bootloader instead!!!!

Cannot flash via flashtool and newflasher

Frankly, I failed to use Newflasher 6x, my cellphone XZ PREMIUM G8141 TELSTRA AUSTRALIA 47.2.A.10.107
Initially I just wanted to install TWRP and Rooting but I failed because I after UBL continued to install TWRP then I installed Super Su, fatal until BOOTLOOP and No OS Instaled listed on TWRP, I flash using the latest FLASTOOL, it can't, even NewFlaser can't even though my cellphone can't I detected it on Flashtool as a DEVICE CONNECT IN FLASH MODE But it always can't be flashed every time, Newflasher is the same as well, about what the problem is that is going on please, my laptop Windows 10 pro thanks, Finally, I was confused and thought about how my cell phone could come back to life without Bootloop, 3 days I learned it can only flash manually via adb fastboot using ANDROID 8.1 AOSP, I installed the manual one by one from 5 main files:
flash fast boot system
flash fast boot data
flash fast boot recovery
Flash boot fast
flash fast boot kernel from Sony Developer 8.1 AOSP
Finally it is on but it can't do anything because I can't install GAPPS just like an ordinary cellphone that feels old, and I root it with MAGISK its ok.
How can I get back to Os 9.0 47.2.A.10.107 ??? With flashtool and Newflasher still failing, is there a solution ??? Please
Thanks
I would use Emma .https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/flash-tool/download-flash-tool/
Sorry brother i dont know why in Emma my phone is not detected, but in Newflasher, flashtool, Pc companion it was detected
Phone power off and unplugged. Hold down volume while plugging into computer and Emma should see it. Make sure you have correct drivers.
newflasher should work... make sure you downloaded firmware correctly, and then download latest newflasher and put it inside the folder of firmware. Then run newflasher, first time choose y to install drivers, then after installing, run it again and flash.
Same Problem
Hi Guys, somebody here maybe knows why my flashtool always shows: "Device connected in flash mode but driver is too old" ...
I use the SOMC Flash Device Driver...
What am i doing wrong ?
Please help me out

Trying to restore my oneplus.

So i recently decided to update my Oneplus 7 Pro from the public stable release to the OxygenOS 11 Open Beta 3 on a whim. Tried to go back to the old stable release by flashing fastboot roms from Tool All In One and it somehow broke everything, even though I did it multiple times before.
Phone can't boot into anything -- even with stock roms installed. Simply shows the bootloader is unlocked screen and nothing after. I can get into recovery and edl and fastboot, but nothing else. I think I flashed an older version from TAIO's fastboot rom flasher, making it impossible (!) for my computer to interact with my phone.
MSM Tool also doesn't work. Param preload, even though I have the QC and OP drivers installed.
Anything I can do?
You could try, moving the 10 stable on to a usb drive you could plug into the phone, then fastboot boot twrp.img via fastboot . Once in, format and install A10 from usb drive, done it many times

That's just it -- I can't fastboot anything. Be it roms or TWRP.
Besides, my phone doesn't really interact with my computer so no adb. Only edl (i think).

Sorry about that bud, sounds like your drivers are not installed properly. Maybe start there. I used the tool in one app to install the needed drivers. Worth a shot.

Fastboot waiting for any device
Hello everybody, I was trying to update my Magisk and that process failed. I thought nothing of it put it off. Tried to restart my phone a few days later and now it's stuck in a fastboot loop. Cannot even go into recovery. So I'm like okay...

Well, TIAO only installs google's WinUSB. I already had that installed. I just don't know why I keep getting stuck on the param preload, even with all the drivers that could be needed being installed. Maybe it has something to do with the OOS version? I have GM1915, fastboot flashed to 10.0.4 Global.
Also, I think i messed up my msm tool since now it always says connected lmao

I had the same problem with drivers. (I tried the ones that come with the device (in an .iso image I think?) and then I tried with the patched L2 drivers.)
What worked for me: installing the ALL IN ONE tool (on windows) then runing it as administrator*, then installing the drivers from within the All In One Tool program.

Running TAIO as an admin? That still only downloads WinUSB.
Can you expand on what you mean?
Under windows 10 open CMD as admin and enter bcdedit /set testsigning on
now reboot. This resolved for me the driver issue and phone was then correctly seen by msm unbrick tool
