I'm attempting to flash clockwork recovery and can't get the phone to respond to fastboot devices when in fastboot mode. I've tried everything I can find with regards to the drivers (pdanet, usbdeview, etc) and I can get google's and pdanet's drivers working fine with the phone booted normally (responds to adb devices). The problem seems to be that windows appears not to even notice that the phone is plugged in in fastboot mode and does not appear in the device manager, making the manual installation of drivers an impossibility.
Anyone know how to fix this?

When I first set up ADB and Fastboot on my pc, I was getting a response when writing 'adb devices' in the console. However, 'fastboot devices' returned absolutely nothing.
Solution (with phone connected to pc and usb debugging cheched):
1-shut down the phone
2-press and hold Volume Up key + Power
3-once in bootloader interface, in the pc command prompt, type 'fastboot devices'.
Voila!
By the way, don't mount the phone as usb storage device.
Thanks for the responses guys but yes, USB debugging is enabled and yes, I've used that way to get to fastboot mode as well as adb reboot bootloader
Hi stoo
I have a same issue - did you managed to find solution for yours?

easy way to set up fastboot

Have the same problem: locked bootloader, not rooted 4.1.2. In ADB everything is ok, drivers ok (in device manager), can get it through "adb devices". But when I boot in fastboot (adb reboot bootloader), I hear the ti-da windows sound (usb unpluged - from adb session), but no ta-di when the phone re-boot in fastboot. No exclamation mark in device manager, nothing. The USB receive nothing when in fastboot. Is it possible that the fastboot image is corrupted? Can I reflash it? Or any other advice?
Thanks
EDIT - SOLVED - at least this step
The problem was the famous "broken power button"! I knew that I had problems with the power button (didn't work - that's why I try to flash a rom (4.2.1 or customized) with sleep tile in notification area).
I thought that the button is all the time OFF and don't switch to ON, but I finally understood that when when I boot in fastmode it freeze before installing device on the PC (I also had no volume up / down navigation in fastboot, a sign that it was frozen). So I ended to consider that the power button was permanently in ON position. I opened my phone and I measure the impedance on the power button. I had ~ 4ohms in off position of the button and 1.8 ohms (cheap multimetter.... probably should be almost 0) in on position. I measured also on volume switch where I had ~ infinite on off position, so I concluded that the button if blocked. I tried to see if I can resurrect it but no choice, so I took it off (unsoldered). I put the battery and the USB cable and boot it. From ADB I reboot it in fastboot and voila! The device popped in device manager! One problem solved! BUT...
I tried to use the Nexus Root Toolkit and it boots in fastmode and try to unlock the bootloader, but it asked me on phone screen if I agree for unlocking. I was able to use the volume to select Yes but I couldn't choose it with power! I had no option but to take the battery off. Starting from that point it was almost impossible to power it again. When I plugged the USB it shown the battery icon (charging). I tried every trick that I found on web, but nothing worked (even to fast plug / unplug many times the USB to overcharge it, but nothing). I was able only by pressing on the middle of volume (so Up and DOWN in the same time) and plus the USB to get to the screen of unlocking bootloader, but without the options YES/NO on the screen. Seems that it saves this state between boots, but why no option? Finally I was unable to boot at all, and it is like totally bricked
I thought that the power button is a simple switch ON / OFF, so I soldered 2 wires and I tried to touch them (short circuit) to simulate the ON, but nothing happened. Is it the button more complex that a simple switch? no ideea...
So now have a better phone than before (at least theoretically it should be able to fastboot), but it values zero because I can't power it on....
OK So I am in the exact same situation.
Nexus S, Broken power button, adb can see the device, fastboot cannot. fastboot cannot be navigated with the volume keys.
I also want to put an other rom onto it, but firstly I want to put TWRP recovery on it, as it supports touch, CW needs the power
button which like mentioned does not work.
I would rather not unsolder my power button to get into fastboot, any suggestions on how that might still be achieved?
thx

Yes, it should have been better for me to have also a possibility to enter in fastboot with the power button blocked in ON position, but I didn't find. And now I know no way how to power it up...
fastboot drivers
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/GT-I9020PWAATT#
has anybody considered using this executable from samsung ..
from what i understood when installing it ,it only unzips the contents at programfiles/Samsung/drivers
then you can check this thread to install them spesifically http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901617
..In short.
Go to
"Device Manager"
find
"Android 1.0" or something like that (i had my device in fastboot/bootloader mode, dont know if it was necessary)
install drivers from the drivers directory and install
P.S. Mine is an ordinary 9023nexus s (slcd) though
be a bit more careful with nexus s4g
I have tried just about everything I can find to fix my Nexus 7. When powered on it shows the Google logo and hangs there. I have checked the battery connection, checked the other connections that are visible when the cover is taken off and everything is ok. I can boot to the fastboot mode. I plug it in my computer and it loads the drivers. I can a cmd line command "fastboot Devices" and it shows that my device is visible. Then I can enter the command "fastboot oem unlock. the tablet asks for the yes or no question i use the volume up to say yes and the cmd line shows unlocking and erasing but the tablet freezes and nothing happens (for hours). I then hold the power button and shut off the tablet. the command line then says failed because of to many links.
The laptop has not been rooted, this is a bone stock Asus nexus 7 2013.
I am attaching a photo of the fastboot mode screen.
My question is...I am beating a dead horse is my nexus 7 bricked permanently.
I think the problem is not being able to enable USB debugging. Is there a way to enable USB debugging when so can't get into systems in the tablet?
Thanks for the help. if you have any questions please let me know

Hello guys,
I just replaced screen on my 64GB OPO. Phone was fine before screen broke and I had a PIN lock on it. Now, when I turn on phone, I cannot do anything on my phone besides pulling down notification bar and swipe notifications. If I try to unlock by entering my PIN, screen turns off right after. If I enter wrong PIN, it will say Wrong PIN, but as soon as I enter right PIN, screen turns off.
I'm not sure why this is happening. I decided to boot into recovery and reflash the ROM. I hold Power + Vol Down, but phone starts booting normally, no recovery. Then, I try to go into Fastboot by Power + Vol UP, and phone boots normally, no fastboot. At this point, I cannot access recovery or fastboot. Then, I try ADB on laptop, I get "Unauthorized." I can't authorize ADB RSA dialog on my phone because as I said, when I enter my PIN to unlock my phone, screen turns off. Recovery, Fastboot, and ADB worked perfectly before replacing screen.
Anyone know how to fix this?. Thank you
TL;DR:
Replaced screen. Entering my PIN turns screen off immediately. No recovery, No fastboot, ADB gives "Unauthorized" Error.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/tool-oneplusrecovery-tool-v1-0-restore-t2991851
You can use this,it does not uses fastboot and instead uses hardware debugging port.
Also using this on Xp system will make it easier to detect the device.

I looked at that tool before I made this thread and in 3rd step, it says to press Power + Vol Up? Doesn't that mean you have to be in fastboot? Anyway, I tried it in Windows 10 and it didn't do anything. My phone gets detected by my laptop and everything. I will try in Windows XP and see if anything changes.

No, power+vol+ is actually done to trigger the qualcomm port,if your device can't boot to fastboot,it means it's actually dead then your pc should be able to detect it as "Qhs_bulk" or "usb qcom diagnostics 9006".
Make sure you install the drivers given in the thread or Qualcomm 2012 drivers.Again this procedure doesn't work on fastboot/adb drivers!
You'll have to disable driver signature check on win8/10,Xp works without any issues.

Hello.
I am Finnish, so I try to tell my problem with correct english.
I have a Huawei P9 Mini Lite phone with Android 7, stock ROM. I unlocked the bootloader. I tried to install custom recovery, TWRP, but it failed, must have been wrong version, for other P9 model. I used Windows software just for for Huawei phones, that you can use to unlock, relock bootloder, root, and many stuff (I cannot remember the name of that software, it works in command prompt window). Situation was kind of messy, but after unlocking, I was able to boot phone to Android OS, only entering eRecovery first, and there press the "reboot" option. So I thought if I relock the bootloader, it maybe helps. After relocking, I rebooted my phone, and I got notification, that there is some problem with file system, and I must do factory reset. It offered me that option right away, so I clicked factory reset. After that, phone went into boot loop state, and also there is a warning screen, about that phone cannot be trusted, because of bootloader is unlocked-relocked. Cannot remember clearly, because the warning screen appears only for few seconds. I was able to press power, vol up/down buttons, that are mentioned in warning screen to enter recovery or continue etc., but it doesn´t help. Huawei logo appears, phone vibrates, and then it starts again... I cannot enter eRecovery anymore. I can enter to normal stock recovery only when I connect USB cable to PC, and press power and vol down, but there is no options to anything. Only notification, that I must connect phone to computer with USB cable, and I did that already. But computer doesn´t recognize my phone, so I cannot do nothing by using computer to try factory reset or something else. In a simple way, I have drivers on my PC for USB, and Huawei software too, but I cannot connect phone to PC. Interesting thing is, that Huawei software on my PC recognizes that there is my phone, when I use USB cable, but there is no connection between phone and PC. So how I can do anything to my phone, when I cannot use my PC to work with my phone? Battery is not removable, and I also let my battery to go empty, and when I connected phone to charger after that, and later tried to turn it on, boot loop started again.
[WANTED!!!] TWRP port for Huawei SLA-L02
Hi and welcome to this forum.
I apologize for the late reply. In the meantime, did you resolve the issue?
Is your device a Huawei SLA-L02?
If you still need help for the above-mentioned smartphone, let me know.
Thanks and greetings
can you please help me I need help because this is happening to me and can you please respond fast

You can follow this guide.
Make sure that the build number ends in an even number (if your phone is a dual-sim model). For example, SLA-L22C432B150
In order to recover Android properly, it's necessary to discover which build number is installed now on your phone. So please, turn off your phone. Plug your phone to a computer by a usb cable, then hold down simultaneously the volume down button and the power button, so that the FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE can start on your phone. Then, on Windows, run a command prompt as administrator and move to the directory where there are fastboot and adb.
Now, type and enter the following command:
Code:
fastboot oem get-build-number
Then, post the returned result, thanks.
How can I get my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra out of stuck at 'entering fastboot mode'?
Hold down power and volume down until it reboots back to recovery. I got stuck there last week and that's what worked for me.

Is this problem solved? I cannot boot into bootloader mode, thanks!
Switch off the device. Then hold volume up and down buttons and insert the USB cable plugged to PC. You will get to download/odin mode

Download mode is different from fatboot mode, I can enter, and works ok download mode. However, fastboot does not, it gets stuck in entering fastboot mode and no fastboot command works
I got same issue here, I've tried rooting via TWRP and after data wipe and "reboot to recovery" it got stuck in same thing and doesn't move at all, if I hold power and vol down it just boots the device which i dont want since i need to flash magisk as a last step. if anyone encountered this or knows how to fix it i'd be helpful
I'm not rooted but I've had past Samsung devices that I was able to root and if I'm not mistaken Samsung phones aren't able to boot into fastboot mode because Samsung removed the ability to. You can run commands via ADB mode but I think that's about it

i cant eneter into download mode by using volume up and volume down ... the only thing that happens is the battery display kicks in .. is there a trick on how long to hold the volume bottons .. or any special way of doing it .. or for the usb c while trying to connect it to the computer
it gets stuck into fastboot entering if i try to do it the old fashion way .. please help
Guys, turn off the phone, press volume up and volume down together, and plug the usb cable while pressing volume up and down, and wait until the phone enter in downloading mode. This work for me.

Since we can"t enter into fastboot mode is it possible to flash boot.img with adb commands?
I m having the same problem with a21s(a217f). I can t enter download mode using key combinations and the other way launching it from recovery doesn t work, it stays stuck at,, entering fastboot mode,,
The ROM is already bricked, it says in recovery when i try to factory reset the following error:,, can t mount. /system (structure needs cleaning)
Even with,, apply up. with adb,, doesn t work, it just doesn t get detected on my computer when i checked with adb tools.
! The only thing that works is that I can access my sd card and apply a update from sd card but I don t know where to get the update file. (I ll edit if it works to flash stock rom from,, apply update from sd card,, )
Anybody got some ideas or should i burn my motherboard and replace it?
sorry for bad english
Honestly plug device into PC.
Power off device
hold all 3 side buttons. Volume up and down and power/bixby.
Should usually work.
After in fast boot you must press a button Volume button to find via odin.

I already did that, unplugged the battery, reconnected it after 1min, connected my phone to the computer and pressed all 3 side buttons, still doesn t work. I guess the download mode is deleted or something..
Volume up & down, no side key, then connect to PC. Works for me. Connect to PC first does not work for me.

It wouldn't be deleted as it's a safety protocol if the device has a bad update and freaks out.
Maybe try to person above method.
Normally I can enter download mode with any of these methods if you cannot I'd suggest trying to get the device replaced due to software malfunction

Samsung phones use a tool called Odin to flash firmware. If you're flashing custom firmware firmware you'll need to have your bootloader unlocked.
I got mine into download mode just now. It's a Galaxy A13 .. Like stated above, try to hold all three buttons down and connect to USB. I had to let go before it showed the battery charge icon. From off. If not from off try from charging. I think that's what I did just now. Plug the usb -> let it show the charging icon (from powered off!) -> hold all three buttons, let it power on, let go. DONE.
just follow this video it helped me a lot to unlock my boot loader
