Redmi Note 7 Pro, fastboot not recognized by PC - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello,
Had the phone for 2 years, and I was using a Google Pixel UI. I had some problem with phone auto rebooting while not in use. So I decided to install MUI, but I forgot its only in Chinese without google play.
So I have tried to install the TWRP recovery, but the fastboot is not recognized by the computer.
I have tried Xiaomi Poco X3, and fastboot its working fine on it. So its not issue with the cable.
I have installed some drivers, but it didnt help. I have tried most of the options, so not sure what I'm missing. Will try tomorrow, a different PC at work. MiFlash also cant see it.
Thanks for any help.

I am facing the same issue tried everything I could. I am able to to execute fastboot command on other devies such as one plus 5t but not with mi note 7 pro as it's not detected in fastboot mode no matter what I do.
It gets detected in adb but nothing pops up when I connect in fastboot mode. No devices is shown in fastboot mode. No changes in device manager when connected as fastboot.
Already tried.
-2 different cables
-Disable signature enforcement
-manually installed drivers
-3 different computers
Someone help us out..,.......

Any leads on the above problem guys?

Disable driver signature enforcement and download mi flash tool. It will prompt you to install all the drivers. Install them and check if it works. For me this was the solution. Another solution is to download the latest drivers from android at https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip for windows and install it manually by using device manager. This fixes are of course only for windows

On my PC, I didn't try other devices in fast boot mode but I know that my redmi note 7 pro wasn't displaying even after installing those Google/phone drivers.
It eventually worked when I opened Device Manager and saw that my phone was showing as Unknown Device; I clicked on the option to update the driver from a folder on my PC, so I selected the folder containing the android_winusb.inf file and it worked

No green android when using flash or fastboot mode

Hi,
First of all the bootloader is already unlocked.
Two problems:
1. - I was trying to flash twrp.img on my mobile but I am not getting that green android to show up in my screen all I get a black screen with blue led light, I usually power off the mobile, hold volume up and then connect the USB cable to my mobile.
2. - Can't find mobile device while using flash or fastboot, my mobile Developer option and USB debugging are turn on, mobile drivers and adb-setup-1.4.3 are installed, I have access to my mobile on my PC , when I do the process of flashing or fastboot I turn off the mobile and I unplug USB cable from my mobile, I press the keys to do flash or fastboot (I don't see no green android just a led light turn on) and connect the USB cable, problem is my PC can't find the mobile device, I use adb function eg. adb devices or fastboot devices I get nothing no device no info.
Is this problem with Win 10?
Was my problem understood in 2. - ?

Most likely a drivers problem, Windows10 fails to tell you that it's not installed the drivers that you pressed the install button on. It also fails to assign the right drivers when you add the phone in flashmode/fatsboot.
You will need to add them manually.
Go into safe mode and use 'driver signing disabled', try adding the drivers again. Then plug in you phone in flashmode/fastboot, then look in the device manager for the phone and change it
Several people have reported success with Zdiag drivers

Thanks! Great Info.
I removed the drivers manually in device manager and then used Zadig, now in command mode I getting something.
Next I have to figure how root the phone, do I need to flash twrp.img ?
I have all this stuff and I got confused which one I need to do next:-
boot.img
boot-G8141-47.2.A.10.45-hideunlock-rooted.img
twrp.img
twrp-3.2.1-0-maple
xperifix.zip
ss_maple.zip
zestmaple-latest.zip
ScriptWINg-master.zip

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)

Fastboot corruption? Help!!!

Hello everyone,
I start by saying that so far I have owned and unlocked at least 5 Xiaomi devices, so a little experience I think I have accumulated.
Today I wanted to unlock the bootloader of my Mi Note 10. I arm myself with patience, download everything i need (miunlock, miflash for the drivers).
Usb debugging activated
OEM release activated
I add Account on Mi unlock
I start miunlock
I put the smartphone in fastboot
The pc does not detect it --- Nothing, no sound and miunlock stuck on "connect device".
I open Adb (always present on the PC), I restart the device, I connect to the PC, it is recognized
Adb Devices --- ok, it is recognized
adb reboot bootloader --- ok it is restarted in fastboot
fastboot device --- Nothing! no sound of reconnection and remains stuck on Waiting Device (I open the device manager of Win 10 and if I disconnect / reattach it does not even go the typical update of the connected devices)
I doubt whether the cable ... I try 4 cables but nothing
I doubt whether the USB port ... I try them all but nothing
I doubt both the pc ... I try to landline, but nothing, same problem
I doubt whether Win 10 ... I brush up on the old pc with win 7, but nothing
I doubt whether I am the problem ... I resume the Redmi Note 7, the same procedure and in a moment everything went.
In short, it seems that from fastboot no signal arrives to the pc, I can't understand if I skipped some new passage or if it is a problem of the device, so I ask you if you have any suggestions to meet me.
I thank you in advance for the attention and help you will offer !!!

I do it, but nothing... Today i tried also with win xp but nothing, no new device in device manager

PC doesn't recognizes phone, tried many drivers

DOUBLE EDIT: I don't exactly know how but I got it to work! Windows doesn't recognizes it but msm does. I installed OnePlus_USB_Drivers_Setup.exe and something called QDLoader HS-USB Driver_64bit_Setup.exe and started the msm thing and I just went with it. First got an error it says to try again after reboot and it did! I'm sooo happy!
So what I did was this:
enabled oem unlock
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot boot twrp.img
wiped everything and format everything
advanced sideload
adb sideload resurrectionremix.zip
restart to recovery > copy magisk > flash that with "install"
Then I found out RR has gapps build in, which I don't want. So I once again followed the above steps but with lineageos instead of RR and then I booted to "Qualcomm crashdump". I can still go in recovery and fastboot but windows doesn't see any devices with fastboot/adb devices. It also doesn't show up in device manager anymore.
I installed the oneplus drivers and qualcomm drivers to no avail. I tried the msms download tool but I only see the COM3 show up with nothing after it and also when oneplus is not connected.
I looked around on the internet but couldn't find anyone else where the computer didn't recognize a phone in EDL (for the msm download tool). When I first enter it does show up for a bit and then it's gone, nevertheless it never shows up in the sms download tool. Also, windows does make a sound when I plug it in, it's just not showing anywhere
Does anyone have any ideas?
EDIT: I made it worse. I booted to safe mode, then followed this guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/tool-msmdownloadtool-v4-0-international-t3798892) and while it was busy I stopped the download and then force quitted it. Now when I plug it in it also doesn't recognize it anymore in test mode
Suggestion: Download a Linux iso and make a bootable usb or disc and install it on your PC dual boot. I can't stand windows! Only reason I have it on my laptop now is because many devs only make important tools that are widows compatible. You'll never have these problems on Linux. Try Linux Ubuntu 18.04 or Mint. Super easy to use and TONS of help online if you ever want to figure out how to do something. Linux>windows
Driver issue is what most people have issues with on windows. You won't have to worry about that on Linux. Just a suggestion.

One plus 7 pro usb drivers?

I am trying to unlock my bootloader (first time doing so) on my one plus 7 pro to get pixel experience 12 working. adb commands work well but once i'm in fastboot/recovery mode, my phone isn't recognized in the fastboot devices list, i assumed this was a driver issue since I have yet to find a working driver (my phone doesnt show up properly in the device manager) but the issue might come from some other source, here are the things i did and tried :
I am using a Windows 11 intel pc, plugged into both usb 2 and 3 ports since i have seen that people found different results with usb 2, i tried installing the drivers from android sdk platform tools from where I manually installed different drivers in the device manager since there wasn't a One plus specific driver(adb composite, android adb), none of which managed to be successfully installed. All of the instances of people finding drivers online either led me to expired links or a shady looking exe., i also tried using the all in one tool but installing drivers from there only returned "unable to install drivers", and unlocking the bootloader through it had the same result as when i tried manually, that is "waiting for device" after entering fastboot oem unlock.Any idea where i can find a driver for my phone?

Update : I used another pc, an amd laptop and used the tool all in one made by @mauronofrio and it worked perfectly, saving me from hours of trying things, so thank you for that!
I usually avoid this drama by disabling driver signature before installing OnePlus drivers on windows 11. Always works.
