i am trying to upgrade my streak from 1.6 to 2.2. I am having issues with the fastboot_mode. My phone is in fastboot mode and i have the ADB Bootloader driver selected in my device manager. Also I rooted my phone first with Universal Androot. My issue is that once i type the command to begin the flash recovery the command prompt says waiting on device and my phone is already in fastboot_mode. I have all drivers installed on my computer, and i have the dell suite stuff installed as well. I got the fastboot.exe from the andriod sdk download. Not sure what my issue is. someone please help

If im not mistaken you need the fastboot usb drivers. Can be found in the android sdk folder.
Update driver- show all-select your driver not auto- direct it to look in the adroid folder with usb drivers- should give u a few adroid device options. Select fastboot.
If u cant find it in sdk folder search net for fastboot usb drivers. If u use win64 it wil still say adb and not fastboot.
Good luck. If u cant find them i can send them to you.

First what baseband are you on? I believe fastboot works on certain builds only, if you are on stock 1.6 you need to use QDL tool to change baseband before using fastboot to flash recovery, amss to get recovery working that would let you upgrade to 2.2 but you have to still upgrade to a more stable build of 318, 322. Follow the video instructions on streakdroid.com. It will take you where you want to be.

Double streak of bad luck. I can't get Fastboot to work on both a WinXP 32bit pc and a Vista 64bit pc. I have a vanilla Android 1.6 unrooted baseband 7921 locked with Rogers canada.
Before you ask, yes I did follow the guides to the letter :
-Installed the latest PC Suite on both computers.
-Installed the latest Drivers from Dell.
-Remove the DS battery, wait a minute, reinsert.
-Get the DS to go in Fastboot mode "Waiting for USB ...", wait 10 seconds then plug it in the PC.
And here is where I get 2 different behaviors :
-On the XP laptop, I can't "Update" the Android 1.0 driver to "Android Bootloader Interface". It simple is not in the list. At all ! Not under Google inc, neither can it be found with "I have the disk" and looking in the install directory of the Dell driver pack. My 2 choises are "Android ADB Composite Interface" and "Android ADB Interface" , none of which will allow me to connect trough fastboot. That is, even though the DS displays "Fastboot_mode", typing "fastboot.exe devices" returns nothing and "fastboot reboot" waits in an infinit loop.
-On the Vista PC, I can get one step further : I can update the "Android ADB Interface" that's automatically installed to "Android Bootloader Interface" (YES!). The DS then shows "Fastboot_mode" BUT NADA. Same as before, "fastboot.exe devices" returns nothing and "fastboot.exe reboot" waits in an infinit loop. Rebooting the PC or the DS doesn't help.
I've tried every usb port. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything multiple times. I've tried the PC Suite package on the DS' memory card. And i've spent half a day on modaco / xda-dev /pocketable / mydellmini / streaksmart, the other half on google. No luck.
The last thing I didn't try yet is to install the Android SDK in hope that there's a secret driver in there to make it all work. Is it even worth trying ?
Anyone stuck in my position ?
Edit : I forgot to say that using -i doesn't work neither:
C:\streak>fastboot -i 0x413 reboot
< waiting for device >
^C
C:\streak>
Problems seems to be solved on the second try after I changed the compatibility mode of fastboot.exe to Windows XP SP2 :
C:\streak>fastboot -i 0x413c reboot
rebooting...
C:\streak>
Cheers

Title:
fastboot boot problem
Post #7
I can get it to reboot if I issue the command from a certain folder on the PC, but nothing else.
I want to do a nandroid backup of my stock setup before I change anything.
My recommendation, david1212, is to go to StreakDroid.com and click on Guides. Follow the guides on that page.
I did, and thats how I got mine working perfectly. Follow everything exactly (even putting the folder STREAK on my C:\ drive), I even reflashed the amss, then I just replaced the ROM 1.7.0 instead of the 1.6.0 that the instructions reference.
Also, I recommend using the StreakMod version of Clockwork recovery. It is also mentioned in the guide. It works flawlessly for me.
I saw your post David, but as I say in the second post of this thread, the problem with fastboot seemed to solve itself once I change the compatibility mode to "windows XP SP2". Of course, that only works on my computer that was able to install "Android Bootloader Interface" driver. My XP laptop does not find that driver anywhere and therefore, fastboot doesn't work on it.
I did not install the Android SDK, I only used the fastboot.exe packaged with Clockworkmod Recovery 1.8.1.7 linked in the pdf guide.
Solving the fastboot problem did not fix everything though. I have started another thread with my new problem : I can flash CWM recovery 1.8.1.7, or 2.5.0.1, or even Streakmod recovery 0.32.x, but only CWM 1.8.1.7 is loadable : I get to a menu with nothing responding except the Reboot button. The other 2 load to a blank screen.
mellojoe : I'll probably do just that, going the QDL tool way. But first, I want to know : Does upgrading android 2.2 have any effect of the problems I get with both recovery tools ? If I can't use streakmod recovery now on stock 1.6 bb7921, what are the chances it will work on android 2.2 pre-release ? I wish I had a back-up of my stock system if the upgrade route goes sour.
Good luck. I hope it works out. I hate that you are struggling.

Have you set up Android SDK? That's necessary! And install the drivers provided in flashtool (flashtool installation folder>drivers).
Just check out my signature, there's a tutorial with pictures based on the sony guide, for unlocking the bootloader

You need to install fastboot drivers. When you are in fastboot you need to go 'device manager' or something like that on PC. Find android and use update drivers bottom option (install manualy) and point where your fastboot drivers are.

Hi,
the last days, I read a lot about flashing custom ROMs and wanted to do so with my HTC Legend. I'm not really new to flashing ROMs in general.I already flashed several other devices, but I'm stuck with unlocking the bootloader. My problem is, that the CMD is either reacting with "CommandError" or "waiting for device". I'm not able to get the token for unlocking the bootloader. Another problem is, that the SDK Manager won't start for me. So I just grabbed the 3 files out of the filesystem and tried it with them. Using HTCs recommended fastboot.exe doesn't change anything. I hope you can help me with a few details:
1. Do I have to install something else than HTC Sync? (I think, it already installed the driver, too)
2. Which connection mode should i choose, when connecting the legend? (recharging/hdd/htc sync/tethering)
3. Which version of the SDK should I use? Is it possible, that someone just gives me a zip with those 3 files?
I'm looking forward to your answers!
Regards
OdlG
SOLUTION:
The solution was a too old version. My phone had version 3.15.405.3.
First I updated to version 3.15.405.6 (found via google here at xda-dev).
Then I patched the new ROM I downloaded from htc-dev (step 0 at unlocking; must connect phone for that hint!) 3.30.0.0.
Then I could receive the token via CMD at a Windows 7 PC (Win8 PC still said "waiting for device", obviously because the driver wasn't installed correctly so the phone wasn't recognised in fastboot mode).
I followed the last steps rom htc-dev and now unlocked the bootloader

AW: Difficulties with unlocking the Bootloader
You should use charging mode and you have to activate usb debugging in settings
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the reply!
I already enbled USB Debugging, and now tried it in charging mode. I created a BAT-File with the following command:
cd C:\Android\
fastboot oem get_identifier_token
But it still says "waiting for device" Any suggestions?
Did you follow these instructions? especcially selecting "fastboot"?
http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/unlock-instructions
if yes and it still didn't work i've no idea at the moment
I tried it once more:
I connected the phone, "fastboot usb" is written there. the cmd still writes "waiting for device". after a few seconds, the pc reports, that the usb device could not be recognised. then there is written "fastboot" instead of "fastboot usb", though the cable is still connected.
a few hours ago i also got a guide at htc dev, that i should install da RUU (what does it mean btw?). i downloaded the german vodafone version and tried to install it. I will try that once more, hopefully the unlock will be successful afterwards!
thanks for your advice!
EDIT:I'm using the following software btw.
Android SDK (adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219)
Java RE 7 Update 17
HTC Sync (3.3.X or something like that)
The RUU installer is starting the setup without problems. It's rebooting the phone o install version 3.30 (hboot1.02). But when the Phone starts in the bootloader mode and displays "RUU", the PC is unable to detect the USB device and the setup fails caused by missing usb connection
Can I somehow influence the detection of the phone in fastboot/bootloader mode?
Normally it should be enough to install the HTC USB Drivers...
You can grab the newest for example from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191279
The second what you need is an actual adb.exe, fastboot.exe, AdbWinApi.dll & AdbWinUsbApi.dll... grab it for example from here: http://d-h.st/RvD (Thanx to torxx (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=3828647))
After u've installed the drivers and extracted the adb file do the folowing
Turn off your phone completly
Push Vol down & Power ...device will start
Navigate with vol+- to fastboot press power
connect with usb-cable (possible that windows will install drivers...wait till its complete)
now "fastboot usb" should be read in the display of your phone
open a shell (cmd)
navigate to your fastboot.exe
type: "fastboot oem get_identifier_token"
it seems, that my htc firmware is far too old (3.15.405.3). i installed all the stuff on my win7 laptop instead of win8 desktop pc and could install the RUU... at least untill the notification, that i needed to update the firmware first, and update hboot1.02 (3.30.0.0) afterwards. the big update is also 150MB, the small one only 5MB. i'll give it a try and report back here, if i am able to manage all the stuff^^
btw autoupdating via options doesn't work ("phone is up to date"). do i have to sign in via google to get a better result?
I managed to unlock the bootloader!

Already flashed CM10.1 It's not as smooth as on my Ainol Aurora 2 Tablet, but the Legend hasn't got the power by far. But if you have a look at the specs, it is amazing, how good it runs on the legend
Thanks for all the help! That was definately worth it^^ I only have minor problems with my SIM-card up to now.
Hi!
First off let me say thanks to R_a_z_v_a_n for redirecting me and hope that I'll find my answer here ^^
So I Have this device called HP 7 VoiceTab 1321RA (not with Slate just HP 7 Voicetab), wanting to have a custom recovery then I tried to flash a CWM Custom Recovery for HP Slate 7 VoiceTab because I thought it was the same and ends up bricking my phone. It ends up in a bootloop which only shows HP sign for a few seconds and dead. But I managed to find out that I can access the recovery menu (or so I thought it is), but the options was choosing between Fastboot Mode, Normal Boot, Recovery Mode, and VART Mode.
I tried to enter Fastboot Mode before and tried to access it via PC but somehow I can't find the device by entering adb devices and fastboot devices. Anyways, I have downloaded a stock update.zip for it but not the original KitKat one which I get from the first time I bought it but rather the JB ones. I think by flashing this would help me recover the device but the only problem is I don't know which method should I use to Flash it. Since I don't have the Stock Recovery or ANY kind of recovery at all, I guess I'm stuck. And it won't start to the home page so I can't set the USB debugging options. Please guide me through this >.<
Thanks a lot!
Been fighting with it for 2 days now and still no result came.
So here's the update so far....
I tried on my other device in order to understand how my PC reads ADB and now I kinda gets it. But the problem is now can't get the device to enable USB Debugging because I can't access options at all.
Secondly, since I left it on for the night because charging seems to trigger the bootloop too, now I can't access the fastboot mode like I was last night. And it constantly repeating this sequence: [battery scene with the "charging battery" symbol] > [HP Powered by Android screen] repeated for 2-3 times > [low battery need charging screen] > repeat. And once I tried to connect to the PC, it goes to the same sequence too. When I tried to access the boot options (the screen which displays Fastboot Mode, Normal Boot, Recovery Mode, and UART Mode which I mention in Thread Starting post), it shows the low battery need charging scene and then repeating the same sequence as mentioned above.
I seem to figure out how to fix this but I still can't manage to access the fastboot mode yet. Will give update once I can try to.
Anyone can help me on this?
Thanks a lot!
Update!
Somehow with a little tweaking and stripping the device, I managed to solve the charging problems. Will update on this once my problem finished.
Jump out from the frying pan and into the fire so they say, I ran into another problem. Finally managed to get into fastboot mode, the devices manager reads it as an Android Device>ROMaster ADB device like the other device I tried to connect while in ADB mode and fastboot mode, but somehow CMD cannot read the device as an ADB device or a Fastboot device like the other device did. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver and still nothing happens. I tried to find the usb_driver on the internet and it directs me to the update.zip instead. Trying to update the driver via Computer Management but it says the driver is up to date. Now thinking about making an emulator device based on the HP 7 VoiceTab 1321RA but I really have no idea how to make one. Any one have any idea of what should I do next or can guide me through this? At least until the CMD can read the fastboot.
Thanks a lot!
I found my self in a deadlock!
