Fastboot not recongnizing - AT&T HTC One (M7)

Fastboot is not recognizing my HTC One. I changed my cell ID and was trying to flash the GPE RUU when fastboot suddenly stopped recognizing my device. ADB recongizes it, and so does my PC.

yes I've tried to reinstall the driver. On the latest Ubuntu and Windows 8 it says on fastboot "waiting for devices"

I've only seen this with Windows 8.1. does Ubuntu even use drivers?

I'm not sure if Ubuntu uses drivers. I've tried reinstalling them on windows 8 to no avail.

Can you restore your phone from backup? Do you still have recovery? Maybe use a usb otg?

Just realized something.. My Computer doesnt recognize my phone while it's in fastboot mode.. Is this normal? I don't think I have a recovery. My phone still works fine. Don't have a usb otg
Thaks

Something weird for sure in Win 8.1, I too went all night last night playing around, and then today, nothing. Same thing, if I open cmd and check adb devices it list's it fine, but I can't run any commands, it just says waiting for device.

Reboot and recognize. I do believe there is a fix in the international forums, going to have to pursue. Seems to me nothing really works right in 8.1 though.
I got it, if you have just updated or changed something you must go through and redo usb debugging, I changed from 4.3 ATT to Brightstar 4.3 Dev Edition, and had to go through the whole setup process, enable developer options, enable USB debugging and checked through cmd, adb devices, and viola, it's there again. Not sure if that helps you, but it did me I still stand that 8.1 is a PITA!

I have the same problem as you! I do not know what to do. Please help! Will it work if I install windows XP?

you need hboot 1.55 to use fastboot in windows 8.1 or a special intel driver for usb 3.0
look around the forums theirs lots of info on it

The Intel rapid management (I think that's what it is) driver is so hit and miss. Sometimes it worked, most times, not. I gave up and went back to Win 8 last night and was able to do everything I needed to do. Win 8.1 has issues.

I could never get it to work on Windows 8.1, but it worked on Ubuntu. I was just forgetting to type sudo[/B ]fastboot devices

[Q] Droid DNA - fastboot on Windows 8?

I have followed about every damn fastboot on Windows 8 post I can find on XDA and none of them seems to be working with this phone. adb drivers work just fine but no go on fastboot. Anyone out there have any luck getting fastboot working on Windows 8 with the DNA?
I successfully used fastboot and adb on Windows 8(64 bit). When i first plugged in the phone, and it wanted to install htc sync, i allowed it to. Then i uninstalled htc sync, but i believe it left the drivers. Adb and fastboot worked fine.
You might also check that you are using a usb2 port (not usb3) and not using a usb hub. Both have been known to cause problems with fast boot/adb

Reinstalled latest HTC Sync from their support site and switched to USB 2.0 port. Seems to be working ok now. Thanks! Can stop using the backup machine with this phone now :highfive:

i was in the exact same position. My system runs Win8 x64 and I had my phone plugged into a USB3 port, but even when I plugged it into the only USB2 Port, it still had issues so I used my Win7 x64 Rig and it worked flawlessly.
Also make sure you don't have an app like easytether installed on the computer this if very often overlooked just disable it for the system tray in windows

I was able to select and install the driver directly using device manager in Windows 8. The driver file can be obtained from the drive that the DNA mounts when you plug it in USB. I used the windows 7 driver:
i.e. <MountedDrive> HTC Sync Manager:\Win7_64\androidusb.INF​
Hate to revive a old dead thread, but I guess it is better than posting a new one, so anyways on to my question, my only computer is a Microsoft Surface Pro, and it only had one USB port which is USB 3.0. In the last few months since this thread has been dead has there been any progress on a USB 3.0 driver from HTC, or here on XDA. ADB works perfectly but I can't get fastboot to install. I have the SDK installed correctly but I just can't seem to get the drivers for for fastboot to install.

I don't have surface so i'm speculating but, just like everything else. Install htc sync to make sure that all the drivers take cleanly. Plug in your USB and
adb reboot bootloader
when your phone reboots it should say
fastboot usb.
If it does then you are good to go, just run the fastboot commands from the same folder that your platform-tools are in. fastboot flash boot boot.img
it will say sending, then working. and you should be good.
If it does not say fastboot usb, then please post back and we will do more research to figure this out.

It does say fastboot usb but none of the commands will work, no matter what I try it will always say <Waiting for device>
And I have tried it with HTC Sync installed and after uninstalling it. I seem to remember it did not play nice with some older phones but when you uninstalled it they drivers stay there, not sure if that is still the case but thought that I would try just to see.

I've never heard of anyone with a usb 3 succesfully doing it and i've searched the forums like crazy. The only way i was able to get it to work is cuz i have two ports and the other was a 2.0.
I mean maybe im crazy but is there some sort of an adapter than could change 3.0 to output 2.0? idk....
On a side note I loved Windows 8 for about 10 minutes then dumped it and went back to Windows 7. Just saying.. I know that's not always an option.

Lol , I'm with you on that one. I had dual boot and windows 8 took over my whole computer and locked me out of my Ubuntu partition. Plus hate the fact that windows 8 integration is dependent on having a windows account for EVERYTHING.

Well aside we are off topic anyways Windows 8 on a desktop or laptop is a piece of sh#t, but on the surface this is amazing I could not imagine anything better on a tablet. The only problems are the price and only one usb, other than that this thing is the best computer by far that I have ever owned. And I would venture to say that it's the best tablet EVER! The only thing that would make it better is if the DNA would play nice with it.

Rooting with windows 8

Is there any possible way or anyone who can help make this happen? I've got a windwos 8 computer...and my God was that a mistake...nothing, even the wireless card built in, has been being nice to me on that thing...anyway, I don't think any root methods work on it, I tried the one from HTC site and no luck...

The driver issues are only if you have a new Windows 8 Device. If upgraded from 7 to 8 Pro, you should be able to root and use the drivers, if you had them installed in your previous version of Windows. (Unless you do a clean factory reset of the Windows 8 device when installing Windows 8 Pro. That just f**ks up everything that has to do with Android.)
So to answer OP's question, find a Win7, or hell I say it Vista computer and have a blast. Unless Microsoft wants to release a patch to this, then you're basically screwed if Windows 8 is the only option in your house/office.

Rezound no longer recognized in fastboot

ADB seems to work, but in fastboot I get a pop up says that the device couldn't be recognized by Windows and Device Manager gives
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

Now, I don't know how the underlying hardware works but I'm fairly sure that if ADB and other USB functions work, fastboot should work as well. Any ideas?

ahhh...the famous code 43. The problem with this code is its pretty generic. It could be hardware or could be drivers. Basically what happens is Winblows is having an issue with the device that is connect, in this case your phone. Seen this one to many times. Try rebooting your computer first of all and try again. If you are still getting the try updating the HTC drivers for your phone. If you do this make sure to remove old drivers and then reinstall the new drivers. That should take care of the issue

It does seem to be my computer and not the phone thankfully (works on another PC). I am using Koush's universal drivers and they've previously worked. On the USB 2.0 ports I get the device enumeration failed thing, and in the USB 3.0 ports (different board, uses a Renesas controller) it appears but gives me
This device cannot start. (Code 10)

I've tried reinstalling the drivers and no dice. I can't use the HTC drivers since I'm on Windows 8.1
I guess worst case I'll just patch it through to an XP virtual machine or something.
Yea win 8 has issues. I use Linux personally. That should resolve your issue using xp.

i know this is an old post, but the driver posted here got me back in business!!! Its a phone for the kiddos, and it was missing rh boot.img and all but 1 of my computers runs 10. This got the win 7 adb driver working just fine!!!

Can't find correct Windows 8 64-bit drivers.

Specs: Windows 8 64-bit. Clean and restored HTC EVO 3D. HBOOT 1.58.0000.
I have tried almost everything, but I can't get my phone recognized in fastboot mode.
I tried what was listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39218156#post39218156

I was able to get mine working with the combo of
1. uninstalling any HTC sync or sync manager and the HTC BMP USB Driver. Basically anything HTC.
2. Install HTC sync. Not sync manager. Go to the HTC support page and you'll see both listed. If you go to the specific phone support page it might not be there. (One S doesn't have the sync program, just sync manager iirc.)
3. Download PDAnet. When installing, It'll give a warning that you already have drivers installed and ask if you want to fix them or leave as is. I chose it to fix and it went though its process and I had working drivers after that.
I think this was already suggested before. I going back and giving thanks wherever due after this post. (On the mobile app right now)
Other easy way if you're using a One S is to download Hasoon2000's All-On-One Toolkit. He's updated the drivers for windows 8. I haven't tried it yet as mine are working so haven't had the need. I would assume his tool for any of the other phones he supports would have the updated drivers too.

And the phone is recognized fine when in regular mode. Though, whenever I reboot the phone into the Bootloader using adb, it restarts into the fastboot, but it doesn't change to "Fastboot USB" and shortly after I get a "USB Device Not Recognized" on my PC and it saying something about it malfunctioning. So I get stuck on "Waiting for device" when trying out this command "fastboot oem get_identifier_token."
Any ideas? I'm trying to unlock the bootloader and root so that I can install custom ROMs and kernels.
Hey there! Sorry my fix didn't work for you.
My question is, are you running windows 8 or 8.1? The reason I ask is because the 8.1 update has broken fastboot apparently. I don't remember the last time I tried on my computer to see if fastboot still works or not since I updated to 8.1.
If you are running 8.1 windows then the guide at droid-now.com seems to have worked for many people. Go to that site and search fastboot fix windows 8.1 or you could just Google that too I guess. I would paste the link right now but my phone is being stupid and not letting me paste it ATM. :-|
If that doesn't work then you may be able get what you need done by dual booting into Ubuntu if you feel comfortable doing so. You could easily make a bootable flash drive that you could boot into just for an emergency. I just used one for about 4 days while fixing my computer after I accidentally erased the partition tables of my hard drive, trying to make a permanent installation of Ubuntu. Got it fixed BTW! ats self on back:
Keep us posted if you get it fixed or have any more questions! I hope I've been at least a little helpful. I'll try to help any more I can if possible!
Good luck!

I am running Windows 8.1, however it looks like the fix only applies to Intel motherboards connecting through USB 3.0 ports. I do have USB 3.0 ports, but my motherboard is AMD and my USB3 controller reads "VIA USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0100 (Microsoft)." I'm not sure that the fix applies to me, unfortunately. Also, I am not connecting my phone to my PC using the USB3.0 ports.
I tried downloading the USB 3.0 Drivers for Windows 8 64-bit on the manufacturer's website for my motherboard (http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4305), but when I try to update my drivers to the ones I got from the website it says that the Microsoft provided ones are the most recent/ up to date drivers.

Be Advised, there is perhaps a way , you wil find in the link below, but be sure to use the right intel driver And only if you hae an intel chipset for usb3 , please read the comments and my bad experience :
Under win8.1/X64 that if you have(like me) an Intel 8 /c220 (or with a 4th generation like intel I7 4770k) you may encounter a big mess , and perhaps you''l have to do a clean install of win 8.1 : all the usb2 DEVICES were disconnected after the first iusb3xhc.inf driver install !! So no more usb/Bluetooth keyboard+mouse , fortunately i had an old ps2 keyboard and i was able to delete only with "tab/alt Tab/ctrl tab" keys the
"intel usb3 extensible " line in device manager, and as soon as i done a refresh (ALT+A) in device manager the previous driver(Microsoft) was reinstalled by win 8.1 andall the usb2 devices connected (mouse/keyb/hub etc)
http://plugable.com/2012/12/01/windo...#comment-19066
see there there's in the last comments at the bottom , Andrew(tks to him!)a link + modified drivers for intel8/c220)
and for me it worked mouse/keyB were functional during all the process
next step check the fastboot adb is working now
Here you go... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061435
A later post I made (I havent updated the OP, shame on me...) is a link to some universal drivers from CWM that works fantastic! - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40108463#post40108463
Before trying this I would goto your device manager and right click on the currently installed drivers and uninstall them before installing the drivers again.
Hope that helps. I am using the link found in that second link and fastboot and adb works perfect. Also, while you can boot into fastboot, stock 1.58 will not let you run a lot of fastboot commands and will need to flash a different hboot.

[Q] Stuck on fastboot not recognizing my device

hello.
i think i have already tried everything to get fastboot on my pc find my device, but no luck.
I've got an old laptop with usb 2.0 + windows 8.1 x64 Pro and the same OS on my PC with usb 3.0 (according to some of threads, my CPU is i7 4770k and my MOBO is MSI Z87-G45).
I use my HTC Desire X every day and it is simply slow. I cannot try every ROM cause of need to flash boot.img. And i Dont have any idea how to get the fastboot recognize my device....
Maybe someone have some time to help mi wlak through this 'issue' idiot friendly? I'm really confused and i dont have any idea what to do.
my hboot is 1.25.** JB. S-ON. I have installed TWRP recovery.
:crying: halp
EDIT:
SOLVED. Windows 7 FTW.
Also had this issue, quite frustrating as no drivers seemed to work for me, got if fixed now though (no need to go back down to win7)

Installed a HTC sync like program named PDAnet, and updated the drivers from that program, once in fastboot mode device is recognized in pdanet and in a command prompt (adb). this only worked on a usb2.0 port though.
(didn't bother replacing usb3.0 drivers as suggested elsewhere as this has caused big issues for me before.)
