I feel like I have tried absolutely everything but my computer will not recognize my phone when I type fastboot devices, while in fastboot. When the phone is on though, adb devices shows the device.
I'm curious if anyone else has run into this issue and if so, how did you fix it?

Hey pal, I'm no expert but I'd say try download adb driver for your OS version whether it's Windows or Linux. and maybe phone driver as well. Worked for me

Just making sure but you do have the latest platform-tools?
I've never actually experienced it not being detected in fastboot before so that's really the only solution I can think of.
So just for some one in the future trying to figure out what happened. I managed to get it fixed.
The problem I was running into was that my computer recognized the driver (the regular oneplus driver that you can install when you plug in your phone) only when my phone was using adb (or in other words, my phone was on, in a usable state, in the regular OS, not fastboot or anything).
However when I launched into fastboot, my computer would no longer recognize my phone as the same device.
To fix:
I had to open file explorer on my pc (running windows), then right click "my pc", then manage devices.
There was my phone, right there, but under "unknown device". I right clicked it, and installed a driver for it, however I didn't use the oneplus driver, I used the Samsung phone drivers. It then worked perfectly.
I know that's not good directions but it still may help someone in the future and save them from a horrible headache that I experienced, at least pointing them in the right direction.
GLHF.
I had this happen to me as well. Was driving me nuts. I had to use a different cable. The wrong cable solution usually never works, but for some reason, my older USB-C anker cable would work in ADB but not fastboot. Newer Anker cable worked. I'm sure the OEM cable would work too.

Howdy, folks. I recently bricked my tablet thanks to a bad install of CWM, but following Buster's guide I was able to successfully reflash stock firmware and the device runs fine when booted up now.
However, now ADB is not detecting my device. At all. I have tried running the kill-server and start-server commands to see if that would do the trick to no avail. I'm not even receiving an error saying "device not found." Rather, the device listing is left blank whenever I enter the devices command into the command prompt. I can still send commands via fastboot, but I'm concerned that there's something here that I'm missing, or that I have somehow managed to completely bork the motherboard. I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Asus usb drivers, in addition to the ADB drivers/software to no avail.
Does anyone have any suggestions to getting ADB to work for my tablet again? I have scoured the web, particularly these forums, for days looking for an answer, but haven't turned anything up yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah everything *looks* normal, and appears to be acting normally whenever I have the tablet plugged in. When my tablet is booted up and connected to my pc, I can transfer files to and from with no issue. Also when it's plugged in, there are two different entries under the device manager (one for adb and the other for the tablet itself). It's only when I have my tablet running in bootloader mode that things don't seem to want to work correctly.
I even ran netstat last night to see if there were any programs/services using the same port as adb, and even that turned up nothing. Is it possible that I somehow inadvertently altered the settings on my tablet's motherboard when I installed a bad version of CWM, per my original post?
It shouldn't be posible to brick anything on motherboard with just flash wrong recovery. It might be just "too smart" windows, that reject to use adb driver on same device that alredy used by mtp one. It wasn't a problem before?

It wasn't a problem until I flashed the wrong version of CWM, got stuck in a boot-loop and fixed the problem using fastboot to completely wipe my tablet and start over from scratch.
Edit: I suppose I could try a fresh install of Windows.
Try first remove all drivers and software for tablet. Then install universal naked driver.

Update: finally got adb to detect my device. Ended up removing everything Android-related from my desktop and re-downloaded/installed everything, including usb drivers. That did the trick.
Thanks again for the help.
Basically what happened was:
After updating PureNexus on my Pixel XL, I flashed the vendor image to only one slot
Booted system to find endless crash dialogs
Rebooted into recovery to find TWRP gone
Did a Full Wipe under stock recovery, hoping it'd fix things
I can now get back into system, but it's glitchy
Neither adb devices nor fastboot devices see the phone
Troubleshooting I've tried:
Plugged usb-c thumb drive into phone. It works fine, so it can't be the port
Plugged old Nexus 5X into computer. ADB and FB can see it just fine, so it can't be the cable or drivers
Plugged Pixel XL into computer. Phone charges but pulldown notification doesn't appear
I don't know what else to do. Prior to this, I was always able to see my Pixel from ADB/FB. I don't know why it's not working now. I would've thought that a "fastboot devices" from bootloader would at least work, and yet it's not. I can get into stock recovery just fine, but there don't seem to be any helpful options there.
Does anyone know what's going on or any way to remedy the situation?

It can be the drivers, Windows isn't going to use the same drivers as the Nexus, unless you manually select them in device manager.

Is it through the Android Studio SDK manager? I remember using that way back when to get everything set up, but I haven't really used it since then.
Actually I just remembered that Mac don't need drivers, right? Per Google:
"Note: If you're developing on Mac OS X or Linux, then you do not need to install a USB driver. Instead see Using Hardware Devices."
Update: Pulled out my Windows laptop and installed everything (drivers, Android Studio, et al) to see if I'd have better luck there.
To test, I first plugged in my working Nexus 5X. Windows immediately recognized it. Pulled up a prompt and adb devices saw the phone no problem.
Unplugged the Nexus and plugged in my Pixel XL. Nothing. No "hardware plugged in" chime, nothing listed under Device Manager, nada. Likewise, the phone itself doesn't acknowledge that it's been plugged in because there's no Android System pulldown.
If it were a driver issue, Device Manager would still at least be able to see the phone (it just wouldn't know what it was). But I'm getting absolutely nothing.
I can only assume that the problem is indeed with the phone itself. I don't know what the problem is exactly, but I know it wasn't there before all of this. Either way, this means my only hope for a fix would have to be through the phone itself. But since Stock Recovery doesn't seem to offer me many options, I have no clue what to do next.
Is there some sort of "secret" key combo or command or something that'll do a low-level format of the phone or something? I'm grasping at straws here, I know, but I honestly don't know what else there is I can do.

Update 2: If I plug it in while in Bootloader, Windows recognizes that a device was connected, but as an "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)"
None of the solutions I can think of (or Google) seems to work. Has anyone heard of this problem before? I'm vainly hoping there's a fix out there that I just haven't found yet.
So Ive just bought a brand new U12+, and obviously the very first thing I did was attempt to root it.
Main hiccup Im running into here is that my PC wont recognize the phone while its in recovery or fastboot/download mode.
If I had to guess, I think it's a driver issue, problem is I've been searching for hours now and cannot find the proper drivers for it to be recognized. (I've also tried every USB port on my PC, both 2.0 and 3.0.)
Ive tried using HTC sync, uninstalling it and leaving that driver, Ive tried letting windows auto install the driver, and I tried a generic android USB driver, none of which have seemed to work.
PC will recognize the phone while it's fully booted to OS, and I can even command it to reboot into recovery from there, but once its in recovery I lose connection.
Not sure how much of a difference this makes, but I bought a factory unlocked phone, still sealed, with all the plastic and accessories inside the box. But when I boot into download I get the message "Security checking failed DENY", this is only supposed to show up after the bootloader has been unlocked isn't it?
Anyways, if someone could point me in the right direction for these drivers it'd be greatly appreciated.

Strange suggestion but try a different pc. My phone isnt recognised when I try to install magisk on my phone on my home pc but it works on my work pc.
I got about 9 different USB ports on my home PC and none work
Also download platform-tools_r29.0.2-windows for fastboot etc.
While you're in troubleshooting mode, try another USB cable. I had issues running fastboot commands and the like when using a generic USB cable, but it worked fine using an OEM one. Can't hurt to rule that out too.

Ive done a fair bit of searching but I can't find anywhere to download older version of platform tools, I have the current build 29.0.5.
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, probably need to reinstall recovery and flash a clean rom again. Try the "fastboot boot recovery.img" command and it's giving me a "waiting for any device". Googling says it's a driver error, but that's strange because I have used my phone on this computer before with ADB and fastboot. Fastboot and ADB commands work fine on my Oneplus 3T.
A week ago I also had the problems after the Magisk update. But connecting to the PC worked normally for me. Once you've installed the drivers, there shouldn't be any problems. You could use a different cable.
Incidentally, Magisk only messed up the boot image. It is sufficient if you flash your boot.img, then the twrp.zip, reboot into recovery, then the magisk.zip.
That was completely enough for me. Cell phone works normally again, without data loss.
Good luck!
Yeah that's exactly what I am trying to do, I can't even flash the boot.img to get into recovery, my computer won't recognize the device for some reason now. Do you know where I can find the drivers? I could only find shady 3rd party sites. Thanks!
Tried installing drivers from here, no change.

Now I can't even turn my phone off lol. It woke itself up this morning magically and now whenever I hit power off in fastboot it just boots up again into fastboot. Might have to send it in...the horror
Your phone is crying out for help. It doesn't like to die.
I think you will have tried everything possible. Have you already connected it to another computer with the right drivers? Tried other cables?

Haha yeah, it's like your kid who refuses to go to bed and is throwing a tantrum. Yeah two different computers that are known to have worked with this phone in the past (how I unlocked the bootloader in the first place). Different ports, different cables. It seems like I'm having the same issue that a lot of other people are having with the last Magisk update, except they're able to flash the recovery image in fastboot to get back running.
This is a ****ty situation! That was really a nasty magisk update. I wonder why its consequences are so different, even though it is the same cell phone.
fastboot cannot recognize device but adb can
usb debugging is enabled on device. running latest version of adb, fastboot. Have tried on both mac and win10 but same issue on both. Oneplus 7 pro is running 10.3.0GM21AA >fastboot devices >adb devices List of devices attached 966c8016...

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

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.

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.

now what am i going to do with my 7 surplus USB-C Cables
Many thanks for your TIP
