Hi there,
Is there any other method to access fastboot mode rather than pressing the camera botton n the power botten together??? coz i have not being able to access the fastboot mod by doing so...dell logo appears and says factory reset and reboots. Please help!!!!!
Have you been trying to install a rom on your phone then? I had a situation today going from MIUI back to O2 stock froyo rom, which always gives me grief. In the end, when the phone gets really messed up the best way back is to use the recovery tool (qdl tool), but this is one to use with caution. If your not sure what your doing, spend a bit if time reading posts here to make sure you get all the drivers installed correctly.
To my knowledge there is no other way to get fastboot working besides the camera key.

Here are some links I found helpful:
http://forum.pocketables.net/showpost.php?p=59264&postcount=2
I have also spotted this - which tells you how to install the qualcom drivers which QDL needs. You also need to install the ADB driver from Dell which you can download from here:
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers...ileFormats?DriverId=R291096&FileId=2731115717
And I have used this to get my streak back when repairtool failed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19544875&postcount=3
That will probably get you to fastboot again, from there you can use StreakMod to mount the sd card, copy the Update.pkg of choice ( I did O2's 319 Froyo) and then reboot into fastboot, flash the matching recovery to the update.pkg, then do the vol+ and vol- boot and choose option 2 - software update option. Then, if all is well, the rom will install then the installer does the low level install stuff and hey presto - one working streak!
Good luck with all this. Oh, and here is a link that is a complete life saver when your looking for all this stuff
http://mirror2.streakdroid.com/manii/
It has it all. Check out http://mirror2.streakdroid.com/manii/Tools/ which has the repairtool and streakflash zip's. Manii is a complete life saver for sure! There are all the ROM's and matching recoveries in here too - so its a one stop shop.
I hope you get it back. One thing I've found out the very scary way is that the streak is one tough device to brick - there always seems to be a way to get back - unless you do the fastboot wipe option - then it's game over. I hope you have not done that!!
Good luck!
try using driver from this link https://www.google.com.ph/url?sa=t&...wMsgpQ_PiAP-8KRWw&sig2=RYdtwQOsIk10srEObUdY7g
extract the rar file and navigate it once you are upgrading driver. you should see "qualcomm cdma technologies msm" under other devices on your device manager (assuming you are using win7 32bit)
here is the process.
1. device is off. press the volume up button and connect to the computer.
2. go to device manager look for other devices and see if there is qualcomm cdma technologies msm you should have to update it using the driver mentioned above.
3. once the driver were successfully installed you can now use the qdl tool.

Whoo Hoo! Great news! I am so please for you
I know the feeling of relief when it all starts to get back to normal again - I have ended up back on Dell's latest 2.2 rom (360) and it's been rock solid ever since. I have not found any rom to be better or more reliable.

just one solution, streakflash. search this forum for streakflash.zip, and you must find the driver for safe mode option to your pc. the driver is from samsung. after you done connecting your DS to PC, run qdl tool, after done, fastboot mode, reflash, then recovery mode to reinstall rom.
what if?

what happen if there is no fastboot on your phone...is there a way to put it back on?
Hi everyone,
Well I'm in that freak out stage.... where I am sure some of you have been.
Heres my issue...
I have a transformer prime that;
I just unrooted using Vipermod
Then did a factory reset
Now I am stuck in CWM recovery
I attempted to do a restore but after it gets done it brings me back into the recovery
I attempted to ADB but the command prompt opens and closes right away ( I assume from not being in USB debugging, which I cant get into without a rom)
I have no rom's currently downloaded into the prime as I just wiped everything in there as well.
Please i'll gladly pay $5 to anyone who can fix this without it breaking more (hard bricking if I havent already done so)
AHHH please guys help, I'm afraid it will run out of battery soon then I'll be royally screwedddd
anyone?
are you on windows 7?
yes windows 7 professional sp 1 32bit . to reiterate I am stuck in Clockwork mod Recovery without root, and with no roms on the internal SD. I have access to one restore that works but after it completes it reboots back in recovery.

Turn on your tablet, let it boot into CWM.
Open cmd, cd to the directory with adb (for example cd C:\android), then copy this line of text below and right click > paste in the command prompt window.
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 count=13
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That should get you out of CWM into Android, assuming your restore works fine.
Attempted and got error device not found.
I have uninstalled the transformer drivers and also installed the universal drivers as said in other threads.
I assume to use ADB i need usb debugging on for it to read??
My issue is I cant get into any rom so turning on usb debugging is a no go.
can i fastboot push a rom to the internal sd card or better yet can i install a rom from the external SD card via Clockwork mod recovery?

Save the file and then try running the adb command I gave again.
Says error device not found. I appreciate the help keep it coming it's keeping my hope alive. I really hope this isnt truly hard bricked.
I cant get ADB to read the transformer prime. When I type adb devices nothing shows up . it starts the daemon successfully but then doesn't show the tfp.
Thank you again for helping. I am honestly going to pay who ever finds the true fix. This stress sucks

Try the instructions here. Try using this only as a last-ditch resort.
it wont shut off either... i tried both of the above mentions and cant get adb to recognize the prime
Attempted both and stuck at recovery loop without root. any more ideas? is it possible to flash rom from external sd? or is there a recovery I could fastboot rhat has this feature?
Attempted both and neither work. I need to somehow get usb debugging enabled while in clockwork mod. Or figure out a way to install a rom via external SD card while in CWM. Any more help is appreciated!

No adb debugging is needed in cwm. Even without any ROM installed. Recovery is different from Android.
Try to long press power (at least ten seconds) to hard reboot, and see if it changes something in device detection.
Did a hard reset and it boots me back into Recovery.
I was able to get a new rom into the internal SD via the emergency/backup.zip method but after it completes and I do a reboot it just boots right back into recovery again.
Any help please is apprecaited.

Oh joy. This one is a spaghetti western in the making.
Okay. Question first : Does Windows 7 RECOGNISE the device in any way shape or form. To find out if this can be done, you need to power up the device and hold the power and volume down buttons, DO NOT press volume up when it suggests a kernel image. If you get three icons, hit vol down once and up once, then plug the USB cable into the PC and the tablet.
If it sees "Something", you've a chance. Download the naked universal USB driver from the dev forum, install it and have your device pick it up on the windows computer. I'm assuming from your comments that you've GOT a working fastboot and adb so I'm going to skip the instructions on that.
If you do have a something, and it's recognised, hit fastboot -i 0x0b05 reboot, if it reboots of it's own accord at this point, you can confirm you have working ADB and Fastboot access. From there you've a few choices. My personal preference would be to ADB push a rom down -after- doing a rebuild of the recovery image via fastboot (I really recommend TWRP for this bit).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26093546#post26093546 - This post here which I wrote will explain how to flash TWRP from fastboot access, presuming you can get it. Once that step is done, wipe EVERYTHING from TWRP, and I mean the whole nine yards, including /system. Raze the memory down to only things it can't actually nuke. Once that's done, reboot to fastboot protocol, get a ROM pushed via ADB and install from inside TWRP.
That -should- get you back in business. Though judging by the tangle you're in, I make no promises.
ADB wont recognize the device. I have installed and uninstalled the drivers about 5 times.
It wont boot into fastboot - just goes directly into Clockwork Mod recovery. Even while holding power and volume down text comes up that says looking for asus recovery. then says clockwork recovery and boots directly into that.
The only way I can get anything into the internal SD card is with MasterZen88's Emergency script tool that puts any 1 file into the internal SD card as backup.zip
It was unrooted prior to all of this as well.
*cringe*
If ADB isn't working -at all- and it's not using the naked USB drivers to get you any kind of workable access. You're starting to smell very much like a hard brick scenario. I'm honestly not sure if there's a way out of that. A lot of the solutions for unbricking absolutely require that the device is able to talk to the outside world, if it's not and the ADB shell is essentially telling you it's talking to dead air, you're in a world of pain.
It's a long shot but it may be worth speaking to ASUS to see if they are willing to, for a fee, restore your tablet to factory settings. Though I can't imagine that will be cheap or simple. If you are able to get an RMA or a means of getting ASUS to poke it, make sure to take photos. Their techies appear to have the worst case of butterfingers in the world.
Go over Pandaball's suggestion, because that's really the last step I can think of before contacting ASUS
I'm trying to update my G Watch by sideloading a zip file.
I installed the sdk tools and usb driver as usual.
On debugging mode and bootloader, the watch is detected as an ADB device normally. 'adb devices' command works.
But when I reboot and get on recovery mode, the watch disappears on the device manager and never get detected again. So I cannot use 'adb sideload' command.
I've never experienced this kind of issue with smartphones.
Do you have any solutions?

Ok, does anyone know how to get my computer to recognise my watch in recovery mode? It's not about 'driver' the computer plain doesn't recognise that anything is plugged in at all.
I know the post is quite old already, but I experience exactly the same phenomenon...
I tried multiple PCs Linux and Windows,but non of them recognized the watch (neither on 4.4W1 nor on 4.2W2).
Anyone any idea?

The problem, as @osikiri stated, is that the device does not get recognized at all (no unknown devices in devicemanager and the sound that comes on plugging in a device does not come as well). Furthermore, afaik Linux does not even need any drivers

If this really helps (seems weird): I guess the exact setting could be necassary:
You simply ran out of battery while the watch was running(not recovery or fastboot) and then plugged it in and went directly (or not?) to the recovery?
Thanks in advance, would be really great to fix this!
Anyone ever find a fix to this? I'm trying to manually install the 5.0 update and I'm having the same issue. Every post I find with search tells me to update drivers but I'm on a Mac that doesn't even use ADB drivers. I've updated the SDK.

Yeah, same issue for me as described.
Windows (Win7 x64 for me) doesn't even realise that the device is connected when it is in recovery mode. Although it will connected properly when booted normally.

Same issue for me. I've tried removing and replacing it on the cradle, killing and restarting the adb server, entering recovery by the touchscreen or by the adb/fastboot commands, clearing debugging keys, etc... Anybody have any other ideas?

Ok, so it appears that the recovery img on 4.4w2 broke adb support or something. There are a few threads that suggest you can root and flash it or just wait for the OTA. We'll see whether I get the OTA before I have time to try this out.

I've similar problem, and I've spent almost 3 hours to find the solution. I found that following solution work for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-watch-r/development/manual-ota-update-root-t2969845
I've changed the step slightly according to the comments inside the thread:
- Enter Bootloader (swipe top left-bottom right as soon as the LG logo pops up on boot)
- Unlock bootloader (fastboot oem unlock) and boot the watch normally once
- Turn off and re-enter bootloader
- Flash 5.0.1 Stock Recovery (fastboot boot recovery.img)
// Do Not Flash 5.0.2 stock recovery
- Enter recovery and ADB sideload the update (tap the android, select install update from ADB and enter adb sideload filename.zip)
//you might have to reinstall the ADB drivers, just follow the simple step to install ADB driver
Done.
fi thought it was finally the solution, but fastboot oem unlock bricked my sony smartwatch3. I see tomorrow if with my windows pc i can fix with sony companion, otherwise i'll have to use the warranty

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!
PLEASE HELP :crying:
Could you unbrick yours
What service centre says about that problem i also ran in this problrm but i m trying to go to service centre for that
first off install drivers in your PC as admin
then use the official flashtool to flash ur stock firmware by entering fastboot or flashmode simple as that
@Sunderesh, thanks for the suggestion, however, couldnt get any official flashtool for hp voicetab. Can you suggest one please?

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 attempted to install the custom OS, Asteroid, to my Zenwatch 2 (Sparrow) I followed the directions and now the watch will not boot, it is stuck at the Asus screen in a loop. I downloaded the recovery image, but I can not flash it do to Windows not recognizing the watch is connected. ADB gives me the error Device '(null)' not found. I have checked the device manager and there is nothing showing as an error (yellow !). Is there anyway I can recover from this?

The problem is that the watch is not being detected by Windows, therefore I am unable to reflash it, I clearly stated this in my original post.

You said windows can't detect the watch in adb mode? What about the fastboot mode?

No, issuing the command: Fastboot devices shows nothing connected at all(the same goes for adb). It also does not show up in the windows device manager.

Did you enter the fastboot mode?

The watch is showing CSC Fastboot Mode! So I would assume that it is in Fastboot mode
Were you able to get this fixed?
No, I have but been able to resolve this issue. It is not being recognized by Windows, therefore I can't flash the original os back to it.
Did you have TWRP installed prior to the failed flash?

I may have a way to get it working. I've had issues where Windows would not recognize a device, until I installed a cocktail of random drivers that eventually worked. What version of Windows are you running?

I am running Windows 10 X64 build 1803
If you have the space, follow this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10
It allows you to run non-graphical Ubuntu on top of Windows. I've found sometimes my Windows 10 PC won't recognize things with adb or fastboot, but it works great in Ubuntu Bash. If you're familiar with Ubuntu at all, then it'll be a breeze to figure it out. If not, it's a pretty straight forward learning curve. It's also child's play to get adb and fastboot working right in Ubuntu, whereas it can be finicky in Windows.
Another alternative is to make a Linux Live CD using a USB drive, but that is a much more temporary solution.

If none of those sound appealing, then I'd suggest deleting all drivers having to do with adb or fastboot, and start fresh by installing everything with this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

OK, I will mess around and see what happens! I will have to do it tomorrow, but I will play around and see what happens!
Let me know how it goes and I'll walk you through it some more.
Any luck?
Sorry for the long time to reply. I installed ubuntu in window and installed the appropriate packages, however both ADB and Fastboot show nothing connected, even though the device is in CSC Recovery mode. Is there anything else I can try?
I actually tried playing with a few things on one of my computers the other day to try tracking this down. I was running into an issue where adb worked normally when the watch booted, but it would not work in recovery, and fastboot did not work either. Here is how I fixed it. Open up device manager in Windows and delete any driver pertaining to Android phones or adb. In my example, an Asus driver was causing the problem. I deleted that and reinstalled the generic Google drivers using the 15 second adb/fastboot installer that I posted in this thread. After restarting the computer, adb works perfect in Android and recovery, and fastboot works perfect as well.
TL/DR Delete all Android adb drivers in Windows, then run the 15 second adb installer that I posted in this thread, restart, and get your watch back to normal.
Assuming your bootloader is unlocked, you can flash everything I have posted here to get it running. https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenwatch-2/development/sparrow7-1-1debloat-rom-t3800067 If the bootloader is not unlocked, fastboot oem unlock will do it.

OK, I got windows to see the watch via fastboot and I downloaded the image that you posted (bloat free) now the watch started to boot, but so far it is just showing spinning dots, and has been for ~5 minutes or so, is this normal?
