i little problem i encountered :/

I just got a new mytouch because i lost my old one :/
last time i did the rooting through the gold card method, now i tried the one click method and it went horribly wrong, i belive i got root, i tried to boot up with a new image but i just stays stuck on the mytouch logo, i can go into fastboot, but when i try to go through fastboot through my computer, the computer doesn't recognize my phone(it doesnt show the serial number) should i install the drives all over again? right now i have i connected to my computer through usb, and it says "fastboot usb".
i have looked though the forums but i didnt find a specific answer, so please if im going to get bombed, all im asking is for a little help.
thanks in advance

ok so..
ok so i fixed my drivers and it detects my phone, but now when i am trying to fastboot it it doesnt let me

you are sure you installed the drivers correctly? can you make it to the recovery screen?

if u try adb devices in cmd using adb from sdk does it give you something like HT9623465? cos that should be fine, also if you're using the sdk try uninstall the driver and then copy the 'usb driver' folder contents from the sdk into the 'tools' folder so everythings in the same place and then refer to that directory for driver installation (windows detects it as android 1.0 device when in fastboot and the drivers are different from normal mode). forgive me if im wrong

[Q] LG-P506 Fastboot Can See My Device But Won't Show The Serial Number

So I have a LG p506 and I recently installed cyanogen-mod 10.1 on it. I had to use the November release as the newest one wouldn't load past the cyanogen logo(i let it run for a couple hours). Everything seemed to work great after that. So I put the phone in my backpack for a later date.
When i finally pull it back out the battery was completely dead, and plugging the phone into usb would not charge it. I used an external device to charge it.
Basically the only thing the phone can do now is load the lg logo, go into emergency mode, and fastboot. I can erase and flash images, I have tried system boot and recovery multiple times with different files.
However I get the same two things every time i try something:
1. when I plug the phone into usb, the phone will do its thing then give a STALL GET_DESCRIPTOR error
2. fastboot devices shows something but I get a "?" where the serial number should be.
I am not proficient enough with fastboot to try other commands. Any one have some advice?
Also, I've tried every usb port I have, theres only one that works with the phone. One of the usb ports shows up normally on the phone but fastboot won't show any devices. I am running windows 7 ultimate x64.
The one thing i haven't tried is reinstalling windows 8 on one of my hdd's and seeing if it isn't a win7 issue. Ive used it with win 8 before and it didn't give the error message.

fastboot doesn't show a serial number for that device. At least never has for me. If 'fastboot devices' lists something like
Code:
List of devices attached
???????? fastboot
then you're good to go.

damn that was my only thing to go on lol. nothing will get this phone to boot into recovery. im about to get a sd card reader for my pc to test and see if its bad.

You can use fastboot to flash another recovery. Rashed should have a link in the OP for the 4.1.2 ROM you said you were using. You can continue to use the command-line if you like, but I did write a Windows app for flashing recoveries. Links in my signature.

ill give it a try, but i have tried just about every recovery file i can get my hands on and no luck, also looks like winds 8 doesn't want to acknowledge my phones existence. I downloaded and installed the driver from LG but still no luck, windows 8 is giving me a failed descriptor error as well.

ok so i have been stumbling around for a bit and noticed something possible wrong.
Windows 7 device manager shows my device, installed correctly, but listed as USB Modem Phone ADB Port.
Shouldn't this be a fastboot port? Since ADB is only available via the android operating system, and i can't get into my operating system, all i have is fastboot.
I have ran thru quite a few fast boot recovery pages, and I don't know what im missing here.

I'd say that was/is the correct port name. I don't have that device anymore so I cannot say for sure.

ok, so this is a follow up on some things i have tried recently.
Since my last post i have:
1. put the sdcard into my tablet, and formatted it/ ran an error scan on it via windows.
2. i then flashed a recovery file via my phones fastboot, i pulled that card put it back in tablet to see what files it installed.
3. according to windows, flash recovery installed a .LOST folder with nothing in it, which is the same thing my tablet has on its internal memory, so i don't think there's anything wrong there.
4. phone still cant boot past LG logo(or recovery), or charge the battery when plugged in.
5. I still get a stall get_descriptor error when connected via usb, and commands such as fastboot reboot don't work, tho the phone will say its rebooting (it says its rebooting then just sits there and does nothing, command prompt will say action completed).
6. one thing i have tried as well, is telling windows not to automatically install drivers, then uninstalling my phone from device manager.
Whats interesting about this was that windows was installing its own ADB modem driver from it's own library every time i plugged in the phone. After disabling auto drivers, and reinstalling my LG drivers, the phone simply remains an unknown device.
Some things I have tried include pointing windows to the driver folder, both the downloaded folder and the folder windows installed it to. Neither worked.
The next thing I tried is the have disc option on both. Although there are setup information files in the install folder (about 50 of em), pointing the phone to each file one at a time did not work.
What did work, interesting enough was pointing the phone to a set of Naked Drivers I downloaded, although none of those drivers are specifically for my phone, and they only gave me the same problem I had when i had windows auto installing its own driver.

LG L5 612 - fastboot issue
Hi,
I have an LG L5 612.
I'm trying to perform below actions, but always get "waiting for device" ... and nothing happens.
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
"adb devices" lists my device correctly, while "fastboot devices" output nothing.

Fastboot not recognising OnePlus 6

So here's the background: I have a OnePlus 6, which I had rooted previously. I accidentally updated it without first patching the boot image, so it's not rooted now.
In an attempt to root it again, I need to use fastboot. However, whenever I use
adb reboot bootloader
it reboots the phone to fastboot mode, as expected, but then
fastboot devices
displays nothing. I find this extremely strange, because I have used fastboot commands before on both my windows machine and on my Linux machine (though I recently switched distros and have a new installation on there, so it may be missing some driver or something).
I have tried looking for any necessary drivers (I saw that sometimes usb drivers are different from fastboot drivers, but I don't know if that's the case regarding OnePlus) but after installing everything I found, it still doesn't work.
I have also tried running adb as root (on Linux) and as administrator (on Windows) but neither worked.
I tried to use Tool All In One to root it for me, but it seemed to run into the same problem. It wouldn't detect the phone in fastboot mode.
I'm absolutely baffled as to why this may be; Anyone know why this happens or what I may do to fix it?

I had the similar issue last week when adb command of fastboot devices would not identify the device. I used the fastboot ROM method to reflash the stock rom and everything worked fine afterwards including fastboot devices command identifying the device correctly. Needless to say, it would delete everything on your phone. Here is the link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665
Good luck!!

Fastboot version
Update your fastboot, maybe it's an old version.
Also check your device manager and see if the phone is listed there. Sometimes it's necessary to disable driver signature check in Windows 10. Also install the driver before you use your commands - some users reported that for some reason the driver or connection is lost after windows reboot.

A) Check fastboot drivers/reinstall them (adb and fastboot use different drivers). You might want to check if there are unknown devices in your Windows device manager, or the name of the device once fastboot mode is engaged and you plug the cable
B) Plug it in another USB port (less likely to be the problem, since ADB actually works)

help with fastboot.

I previously unlocked my bootloader, installed oxygen 11 (am on beta 4) . I want to install PA but I can't get fastboot on my machine. Shouldnt it be as simple as instilling adb and fastboot as well as the oneplus drivers? I've done everything I can think of and the majority of times ,I ended with an exclamation point in device manager and couldn't get the correct driver installed. I tried SDK etc.. more so... Android composite adb isn't showing in device manager. I might just use my laptop.
Any quick ideas on how to fix though? Thanks

There are lots of guides and links to the minimal adb/fastboot packages here on XDA. I will say it's a heck of a lot easier on Linux or even Mac, but typically the issue is that you want to have your device drivers installed first, then connect your phone (switch it between charging, file transfer, and MTP modes and let it install each of them fully to the device manager while it's plugged in), then install adb, enable debugging, plug in, run "adb devices" and trust the RSA fingerprint, and let it install that side of things to device manager as well.
I'd start by uninstalling all of the instances of the device in your system first to start over. You might even try plugging it in with no drivers installed first to see if it loads working generic drivers.
Man, I do not miss Windows.

I've done all that, and now I tried my laptop and it's the same issue. Adb works fine, mtp works, just fastboot says "waiting for device" so frustrated.
I'd switch to linux if gaming was better... You think most games can run in linux? I am used to use it in the last before I started pc gaming and I really liked how capable it was. Creating bash scripts for simple tasks was great.. Windows really does suck. Getting fastboot working shouldn't be this much of a hassle and it never has been so I don't know what's wrong. I've uninstalled drivers multiple times now and still can't get anything. I'm Wondering if it's this latest release of Windows...

Make sure you have the latest Android Platform Tools installed...

Try revoking all adb authorizations and then try to plug it in and run "adb devices" to regenerate an authorization maybe? Is the problem only with fastboot or is adb also broken? You are running fastboot commands in the bootloader instead of adb commands, right?

Any luck? I'm having the same issue. Just managed to get my phone unlocked from tmo, and for the life of me can't get windows to recognize my device in fastboot. After an uninstall of the device in device manager, and plugging it back in fastboot. It appears under other devices as simply android with a question mark icon top left, and a yellow triangle bottom right. Manually pointing to either the drivers from 15 sec minimal adb & fastboot google drivers, or selecting all devices>have disk>and pointing too the inf of the driver downloaded straight from google results in the yellow triangle going away, but the question mark still remains, and it's still listed under other>Android. So I suspect for some reason or another the drivers aren't installing properly. Usually (having to have to do this with other devices) has worked in the past. I've had win 10 mess up loads of things most notably my dl speed once. Some bug had it capped at like 24 kb/sec (shudders). Just for comparison what Windows version are you on?
Tried dl ubuntu to boot from usb and try that. Then I ran into issues dl the iso. Couldn't catch a break yesterday I guess. I'll try again after work today, and report back. Don't like the idea of having to boot linux just for fastboot. Might a vm, but I'm not sure that would work considering windows doesn't recognize the device to pass it through, but we shall see. I will say this just about over win10.
Also Idk if it matters, but I had Android studio installed before this as well. Might be time for a fresh install it's been a while.

Oneplus 8T stuck in Qualcomm CrashDump mode

After trying to restore stock OOS and rebooting fastboot my phone is now stuck in Qualcomm Crashdump mode. I have MSMDownloadTool installed but it won't open, it just opens a windows saying "Program has been started" after executing it.
I also can't reboot to the bootloader, the phone just turns on or off.
What to do?

From my rather long post in https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...your-device-to-oxygenos.4180837/post-86563159 :
"connect the phone to the PC whilst it's still in CrashDump mode and then press Pwr + Vol Up until the phone buzzes and then hold Vol Up + Vol Dn and MSM will then connect."

Thank you, that worked. I have another question if you don't mind:
I tried to restore OxygenOS with https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...xygenos-fastboot-roms-for-oneplus-8t.4348023/ but it cant find the create-logical device and delete-logical-device commands, also when I try to flash some of the image files fastboot complains about not being able to flash system critical files. I tried running fastboot flashing unlock_critical but that didn't change anything. Is there any other way to restore Oxygen OS with fastboot or is there any fix to my issues? I've been looking on the web for a few hours now, to no result.

The delete/create logical commands are in the thread OP, but you have to tap on "click to show" button.
Note that fastbootd is not the same as fastboot. And you need to be in that mode to avoid the "critical" warning and to be able to do the logical partitions stuff.

So, after massively failing to update my 8T I am stuck in a bootloop with a bit of Crash dump [dm-verity device corrupted force dump].
I am still able to access fastboot but that is it. I can't get adb working, when I attempt to enter recovery mode all I get is a black screen, MSM is not able to find my phone/I can't get my phone to enter EDL (been trying for about 5 hours now).
I feel so defeated by this can anyone help me?

Did you read my post (#2)?
Does your PC make a sound when you connect your phone to it in EDL mode? If so, try reinstalling the Qualcomm driver (though I've never needed to do that).
If you can get into bootloader, then you can try using the method in https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-unbrick-or-restore-to-oos-using-only-fastboot.4289013/

Whenever I connect my phone to the pc it just auto-boots. In my devices the driver does show up. But I don't think I have been able to access EDL.
I did reinstall the driver as well, no change. I tried installing the drivers and MSM stuff on a 2nd pc, still unable to get it going.
I did come across this method and my phone/fastboot keeps erroring whenever I try to use cmd for anything beyond Reboot fast boot. It's weird.

I see that your PC sees the phone (Qualcomm...) but has an ! against it. If you open that you should see the option to update the driver.
PS: you may need to flash boot, DTBO, and recovery in fastboot first before you can use fastbootd to flash the other partitions for the fastboot method.

Ok I take back what I said! That link with the CMDs worked!
I really don't know what I did differently, probably skipped a step or something, but I was able to reset my phone!
Still unsure what is going on with the drivers but the crisis has been averted!
Thank you BillGoss! You are incredibly helpful!
