Question Fastboot drivers not working - OnePlus 9

searching all over the internet on how get my computer to recognize my device in fastboot..
I already had universal adb drivers installed, along with android studio.. so adb worked out of the box. I tried to root, got to where I need to unlock the bootloader but no fastboot..
Tried reinstalling universal adb drivers, also tried a few other downloads from google with no luck on anything..
Searching the forums it seems like fastboot 'just works' for everyone else, so maybe something on my computer is messed up..idk
device manager just shows 'unknown android device'
my phone is oneplus 9 unlocked version, model LE2115
any help is appreciated

Double post

ok now I'm confused.. those drivers didn't work. following the root guide on here it says 'unlock the usual way''boot to bootloader''issue command 'fastboot flashing unlock''
so I decided to try rebooting to fastboot instead, which brought me to fastbootd
fastboot does recognize fastbootd, but the unlock command "flashing unlock" is unrecognized
So do I use bootloader or fastbootd to issue the unlock command?
if the latter, why would fastbootd not recognize the command?
the 'oem unlock' option is ticked on...

Make sure you enable oem unlocking in dev options first and reboot.Reboot to bootloader,issue command $fastboot flashing unlock..

Are you a carrier variant or global unlocked 9/9pro?

OEM unlocking is enabled, reboot to bootloader, command 'fastboot devices' shows no devices
Still have unknown android device in device manager
It's a global unlocked 9

Did you create a shortcut to those adb driver's when you installed; on desktop. And open cmd window in that spot. ?

I'm not sure what you mean by shortcut
I unzipped the file to my desktop, then tried installing driver through device manager, but no driver was found.. I then tried installing the driver with the "DPInst_x64.exe" file, but it says install failed with no other explanation
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.

[Q] Stuck on Google logo. Unable to push image file to phone... Please help.

Tried various possible solutions and still can't get past the Google logo. Installed adb and Samsung driver but when executing commands such as "abd remount" or "adb push file.zip \sdcard\" in cmd I get an error saying "device not found".
Does anyone know how I could resolve this issue?
I tried clearing the cache and wiping the data from the phone, and even heating the phone with a hair dryer. I'd very much appreciate any help.
looks like you still be able to get in reovery ? if so , then nothing you should worry , just flash a new ROM
Do you mean like a boot image or a recovery image?
If so then you need to put phone in fastboot mode, hold volume up and power til it comes up on screen, then on command prompt on your computer type in fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxx.img (xxxxx is the name of the file like cwm5.0.2.0.img or whatever)
That should give you a working recovery to flash roms from.
Is your boot loader unlocked?
If you wanna mount then just go to mounts and storage and mount USB storage and it will show up on your computer!

Thanks for your reply, seems to be hanging on waiting for device. Fastboot appears to be locked and it just hangs on "waiting for device" when I enter the command fastboot oem unlock... Not sure where to go from here.

Hmmm try going to cmd prompt and typing in adb devices, if you get nothing then your adb isn't set up properly and you need to go into setting and change the path on your computer.

Find the Android sdk folder in your computer, move it to the root of C.
I don't think adb is where this guide says it is, there is a read me in the folder where it was saying it has moved to the platform tools folder.
So anyway find the path to the file and put it where the guide says and you should be on the ball.
Forget adb. You need to use fastboot.
Open a command prompt in the directory with fastboot or cd into it.
Put phone in fastboot mode.
On the command prompt type fastboot devices.
You will see your serial number. If you don't recheck and make sure you did everything. Sdk PDA drivers if need be etc.
Fastboot flash recovery custom recovery img name.img
Boot into recovery
Mounts and storage.
Mount SD card
Put a rom for you device on there.
Unmount
Wipe everything but sdcard from recovery.
Flash the rom by going to install zip from SD card......
Okay still stuck trying to connect to my phone. I haven't been able to get my serial number show when typing fastboot devices in cmd. adb is set up and seems to be working but the list of devices is blank when I type in adb devices. The phone was put into fastboot mode both times. I get <waiting for device> when I try
fastboot flash recovery clockwork-5.0.2-crespo.img
I think the bootloader may be locked as it does say LOCKED under lock state, which is probably the reason why I can't get the recovery image to work. I couldn't install PDANet as it wanted to connect to my phone while in debugging mode at the end of the installation. Would it be possible that fastboot oem unlock won't work with without having PDANet installed? I'd really appreciate any further help on this topic.
You need the drivers.

I have the Google USB driver package installed from SDK Manager. I had tried to install some other Samsung driver found on another post but it wouldn't install.
Turns out drivers weren't fully installed, managed to get PDANet installed and could connect to the phone with fastboot devices. Serial number was displayed in cmd. Only problems lies with unlocking the bootloader. fastboot oem unlock fails giving an error: too many links. Anyone have a solution to this?

Did you try booting into bootloader in the first place? Volume up+Power
Then you can use fastboot. Forget PDAnet. Just install SDK and ADB

Yeah I was in bootloader at the time, but I noticed that the Lock-State said locked. So I figured I must first use fastboot oem unlock. If I was to try flash with a stock recovery image would I still need to unlock the bootloader? Like I said I was able to use fastboot devices and get my phones serial number to show up, so I think SDK and ADB is properly installed, path set correctly etc.

I don't think you need to unlock the boot loader to flash a recovery image.
I may be wrong but I remember someone saying that once. I had mine unlocked before I had the chance to try it out. What happens when you type in fastboot oem unlock?

Thanks for your reply, I followed the steps just now and got the exact same error. Before I was trying fastboot oem unlock while in platform-tools but this time I had downloaded the nexussrootICS.zip file, and extracted it to the root of C. I tried fastboot devices and my serial shows up and after fastboot oem unlock I get "status read failed: too many links."
The only difference I seem to have is that in my device manager I have Android Device > ADB Interface, as opposed to SAMSUNG Android Device > ADB Interface.
Not a big difference but that's all I can think of.
the same issue for me. is there any working solution for that?
I recently had success in recovering from this issue.

Unlocking bootloader

Currently in the process of unlocking bootloader via following the steps provided in this forum. I'm having trouble with my computer recognizing my device when I boot into bootloader. When the phone is on, it is recognized as "OnePlus", but in Bootloader the computer says "Android" and "Drivers unavailable" I've tried manually assigning them with no luck. Any help would be appreciated
Still no luck on unlocking boot loader. I've installed and reinstalled drivers from OnePlus and Adb and fastboot, tried installing the Android SDK. No luck. I cannot get "fastboot devices" command to show anything in a command prompt
are you writing the command "fasboot devices" on the same directory where you have installed your adb?

I have tried it on a few different directories. I installed the adb via the exe on the tutorial. I'm not sure which directory that would be
If you already installed adb go to c:/adb in the folder hold shift and click the right mouse button, there should be an option that says open command prompt here or open powershell prompt here, click it. You should see a command prompt, boot into fastboot and connect your phone to your computer and now type "fastboot devices". If it doesn't detect it, it might mean that you haven't enabled USB debugging. And remember to turn on oem unlocking in your phone
I finally figured out my issue. I had to go into the windows device properties, attempt to manually install the drivers while the phone was in bootloader. It would then throw an error about the android bootloader interface and asked if i wanted to search for an update, windows actually found an update to that particular part of the driver. Installed it and that fixed it.
Glad you fixed it

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.

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

Fix the Fastboot not detecting your device. If your device is not detected by the Fastboot then these tricks will really help you.

How to root zenfone 7 ZS670KS

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?

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.

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.

So you can just try it on another pc.
Have you changed from USB 3 port to a USB 2?
My Xiaomi mix2s had sometimes this too. That's worked for me.

i think its definitely a driver issue. windows 10 seems to be overriding the drivers and installing wrong ones. and won't let me install right ones.
haven't tried in a different pc. will need to get hold of one and try.

I'm not sure.
i only managed to root it by following the instructions here years ago.
maybe try updating the asus apps in play store? or ask some of the other people here who know more than me. or disable the asus apps. i don't use them.
sorry i couldn't help more

X96Q Allwinner H313 tv box not detected in fastboot

I have a X96Q H313 tv box I'm trying to unlock bootloader to flash ROM, root and all. Using Adb for this the device is being detected but when I reboot to bootloader the device does not show up in fastboot. Any fixes for this?
Dont use fastboot with ip you can only use fastboot with cable.
Or you have to manually connect the adb through IP

Well I use a cable. A USB A-A cable
ADB and Fastboot require different USB drivers.
Search for, download and install the Android USB driver for your TV box.
Good day guys please I can't really do much on my X96Q as its not been seen in fastboot but its showing up in ADB. I've searched online and tried all to no avail can anyone make a copy of the driver for me please. I use a windows 10
Edit: its sorted I installed a Linux virtual machine on my PC instead and its showing up in fastboot. But trying to unlock the bootloader is giving the below attached error message

Thanks I couldn't find the drivers though and in the process I messed up even the ADB driver. So i installed a Linux virtual machine on my PC instead and its showing up in ADB and fastboot now. But trying to unlock the bootloader is giving the below attached error message. OEM unlock is activated and all other relevant options in developer options ticked any solutions?
Whattt
No
To unlock the bootloader you do:
fastboot oem unlock
