bootloader-fastboot mode is the only time fastboot commands will work. I know you tried this "also". But I feel you are wasting your time trying to run fastboot when phone is booted (instead of focusing on the situation where fastboot should actually be working). adb and fastboot will not work at the same time by definition. Also, debugging does not need to be enabled for fastboot (only for adb).

Try a different cable, different USB port. Fastboot can be finicky sometimes. You can also go to Windows Device Manager, find the device, and see if you can manually select the drivers. There is a generic Android device driver that sometimes gets fastboot to work properly on some of my past devices. This is on Windows 7, haven't done this on WIn 10 yet, so not sure if it is exactly the same.

What's you gotta do is look up how to disable signature verification in Windows 10. Then once you done that stuff put your device in fastboot mode then on the window 10 PC open of device drivers find Android phone then bootloader update driver. There will be 2 choices for updating pick the on device one. Should do you right.
I had to do this after flashing the T-Mobile version to my international version with the msmtool and it locked my bootloader for me
Since adb is working, do an adb reboot bootloader and it'll then boot into fastboot. If you can't get a return on fastboot devices at this point, it could be you haven't oem unlocked your phone yet.

I ran adb reboot bootloader from pc to boot phone into fastboot.
In the bootloader it states device state is unlocked
However fastboot devices ran from pc still shows no device.

This worked for me as well. Just to make it clear, rephrasing his reply. After disabling signature verification on windows 10, connect your phone in fastboot mode & open Device Manager on Windows & look for Other > Android device.If it is found, This means Windows 10 is not having proper drivers to recognize fastboot device. Now install "OnePlus_USB_Drivers_Setup.exe" & it will show pop up for installing driver & after accepting(this is blocked due to signature verification in normal situation), Android device will be recognized in fastboot mode.

ugh. I've tried all of these suggestions and still can't get the device listed in adb while in fastboot.
I even used the TOOL ALL IN ONE without success. Funny thing is, that program recognizes my phone being in fastboot and has it listed. But if I try to flash a recovery from there, it opens a command window and ultimately says there was an error in connecting to the device.
Any help is appreciated.
I have a similar problem. I tried to disable the signature. Installed a new Redmi Note 7 driver. The phone is recognized as an Android phone in the device manager. In Orangefox recovery it is recognized with ADB command. In fastboot it is not recognized. In Orangefox I can't format data. So my ROM is not booting up. So I want to flash fastboot ROM with Fastboot but in Fastboot device is not even recognized.

Sorry on the late reply. Pretty sure you can only do fastboot boot boot(recovery).img or\and boot_a or boot_b. Wont let you fastboot flash boot.img.

Thank you so much!
I also had same issue. my redmi note 6 pro and asus zenfone max pro m1 can be detected in adb but not in fastboot. tried everything. changing driver/disble signature verification. also tried virtual box ubuntu/window 7. but not succeeded. It is actually an issue with usb 3. so I bought usb 2 hub. now everything works fine.
Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you...I have been fooling with this all day
Hi, I already solved this issue (but this only works for xiaomi phone (Redmi Note 7 to be specified), for other brands I think need to download your devices flasher/driver tool)
For Xiaomi user only
1. Download Mi Unlock Tool (https://mi-globe.com/download-xiaomi-mi-unlock-tool-all-versions/) (Version 4.5.813.51)
2. Extract the files anywhere you like
3. Run MiUsbDriver.exe to install the driver
4. Try fastboot devices command
I hope this helps you guys. The Mi Unlock Tool also useful to unlock device locked bootloader.
For other devices maybe can follow this tutorial
Fixed: Fastboot not detecting your Android device
Fix the Fastboot not detecting your device. If your device is not detected by the Fastboot then these tricks will really help you.

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 ...

good news after a few hours of trying (usb dropped connection a few times then battery died) it finally works again .....been over 2 years since iv had this shield running after nvidia did the recall , now goto put a different rom on there so it dosnt update and kill itself
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?

Hey there masterfully smart megabrains of the XDA world, I've gotten myself into a bit of a pickle. I accidentally chose the OTA option from Magisk when I hadnt just installed an OTA update. Now my phone when i restart it it just sits spinning the Oneplus logo.
I do have access to Fastboot.
I do have access to Recovery.
I only have stock Recovery, no TWRP installed.
I did not have USB debugging enabled before this issue happened.
ADB is installed and I have my drivers installed, but when I use powershell to enter the command adb devices my device isnt listed when I have the phone connected via USB and in Fastboot mode. When I check device manager Android Device is just listed rather than the device name, so I'm not sure what else I can do to get my device to be recognized correctly. I feel like if i could just get ADB to recognize my device, i could fastboot flash the stock rom. Or if there is a way to swap to the other boot slot I think that would also save me. I've been trying to google and search around but I'm having trouble finding the answers I seek, so please megabrains, save me!

Edit: i was able to get fastboot to work, I had to do the following steps i found on stack exchange to get my device to show up properly in device manager:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8588595/android-fastboot-devices-not-returning-device
Open device manager
Find Unknown "Android" device (likely listed under Other devices with an exclamation mark)
Update driver
Browse my computer for driver software
Let me pick from a list of devices, select List All Devices
Under "Android device" or "Google Inc", you will find "Android Bootloader Interface"
Choose "Android Bootloader Interface"
Click "yes" when it says that driver might not be compatible

With fastboot working and issues in device manager solved I was able to get TWRP loaded to my phone via fastboot and change my boot slot to get back into the phone
hello guys
how do i root this phone please.
none of the google searched guides seem to work.
1. i've unlocked the bootloader using the asus app
2. i have adb installed on my pc
3. i've enabled usb debug mode on phone and allowing installation unknown apps
4. i've installed magisk v23 by downloading from github and just installing the apk file normally
5. i've downloaded a 2.9gb zip file from asus for androind 11 firmware onto phone and pc (but its a zip file that extracts a bin file, no image file)
my problem seems to be i don't know how to CREATE AND PATCH an image file or install twrp and install image file that way.
Could someone help, there doesn't seem to be any guides for rooting in this phones forum.
Look in the twrp thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-official-twrp-for-asus-zenfone-7-series.4161719/
after twrp you can flash the magisk.zip

i keep getting era waiting for device when i want to flash the phoben with twrp.
adb reboot bootloader (works and i enter the recovery menu start, bootloader, recovery, power off etc)
fastboot flash recovery_a twrp.img (when i type this cmd power shell just says waiting for device)
i have universal drivers installed and android sdk installed. not sure why it isn't recognising the phone?
When my phone is switched on normally, cmd recognises it, when i use adb devices. but as soon as i reboot into recovery mode using cmd "adb reboot bootloader" it stops recognising the phone on the list of devices using the cmd "adb devices"
so you don`t get an answer from your phone by "fastboot devices" ?
Have you tried another usb cable and or port?

no answer from phone when in fastboot mode.
but i do get a reply in cmd when phone is switched on normally.
I'll try with another cable, but if it responds to adb when in normal mode. doesn't it mean it's not a cable issue but a software driver issue?

seems when i do adb reboot bootloader it goes into what i thought was called fastboot. It even says fastboot.
but in that mode my phone isn't recognised by cmd when type adb devices, it doesn't come up.
it has 4 options reboot system now, botloader, enter recovery, reboot to bootloader, power off.
if i then select enter recovery. it enters a smaller text screen with lots of small blue writing. when inside that screen (recovery mode) cmd seems to recognise my device.
but it says it is unauthorized. this is in recovery mode.
i'm not sure why it says it is unauthorized. i've authorised my pc to control the phone through the fingerprint, when the message popped up.
but i can't push the twrp.img file through because of this.
since cmd doesn't seem to recognise phone in fastboot mode.
and cmd doesn't seem to have authorisation in recovery mode.
any ideas?
is it possible to root using adb sideload or install twrp using adb sideload?

Thats the right mode.
Does the phone at normal start show that the bootloader is unlocked?
Your debugging mode is turned on in developer settings?
A sideload isn`t possible I think.

yes, shows bootloader is unlocked when i start the phone.
usb debugging mode is turned on.
i think for some reason in fastboot mode the device driver is not recognised in windows. have googled seems it was a very old problem that happned on phones 6 years ago. nut i haven't found anything recent to solve same error.

I tried just opening a command prompt in that folder, but with no driver installed, it still isn't recognized
Thanks for helping, I'm lost at this point lol

Try one more thing. Install these and creat shortcut on desktop and try opening cmd in this. We gonna get you unlocked.
One last thing. You have also went into developer options and tic'ed "USB debugging on then ok on device when it asks if you wanna allow phone to communicate.
tried that, still nothing. usb debugging is on.
all I need is a working driver, everything else should be good..
one thing which i'm not sure if it's an issue, I'm using an old usb c to usb 2 cable, I'm not using the cable that came with the phone because my computer doesn't have usb c ports.. but adb and mass storage/file transfers work with no issue
Hate to say it, but it still COULD be your old USB cord even with file transfer and adb functionality preserved. I had a cord that did do file transfer but not adb. You should try another cord...
Here's another driver source to download:
Universal ADB Drivers
2 new cords, and also tried multiple driver downloads, but still nothing... i was really hoping to root this phone and it seemed so easy for everyone else, thats why i bought it.. but I guess I'm stuck with a locked bootloader...
I could try factory resetting windows or the phone, but would that even make a difference?
..rereading the root guide, at the beginning it says "if you're on global and want root, flash the eu boot.img" but I'm not sure if he means do that first or use that for the guide.. I'm assuming I need the bootloader unlocked in order to flash it first, but maybe not..
..also should I have just commented in the root guide post, instead of making a new post?..
I'm sure you've tried another usb port on your computer.
Last thing to try: another PC.
Shouldn't come to that, but that's where you look to be.
Got it!! Someone posted about the op6 not working either and the fix is turning off windows driver signature, not sure why but that worked for me..
Thanks, now on to root lol
I just had some serious fastboot driver issues when setting up my oneplus. Not sure if this helps but can you at least find the driver folder that was installed on your c:drive when you initially installed the drivers. Then check your device manager when your phone is in fastboot and update the device (usually under portable devices) through that path?
If you get a tampering /corrupt error when you do this you can disable driver signing in windows which is what worked for me thanks to this saint.

You sir are saint...I've been trying to get fastboot to recognize my OP6T for the last 8 hours. Thank you so much!
