Hello,
I want to use fast boot command on my phone. When I run adb reboot bootloader command, my phone reboot normally. My phone is using chipset mediatek MT6589. How can I use FastBoot on my phone. Please help. Needed badly.
Waiting....
Try using an app for fast boot, maybe rom manager can do it for you.

So I'm preparing to do n4 conversion. However, as I'm making sure everything is ready to go I noticed the only way I can get into recovery is through an app called quick boot, is there something special in the boot loader to get to recovery ? I see no selectable options.
When in boot loader, fast boot is in red , but I can not pull up fastboot devices , when I try to do fastboot reboot, it just sits and stays at waiting for device. Under device manager it says android with a yellow exclamation point when in boot loader.
Lgnpst notices my phone both in download mode and when on, but not in boot loader. I just want to make sure I'm completely set before I do this. Please help!

Btw, all adb commands work, fast boot options comes up , but can't do anything in fast boot mode. I'm not that much of a noob, is there anything I can try ?
Its not about what you know , but who you know.
81 views and no responses thought I would at least get some "your a noob" responses

Had the same problem. My drivers weren't installed right turns out. I just ended up using another PC that I knew for sure worked with adb.

I know for sure my adb is working though. In fastboot mode, I look in device manager and under other devices, I get android with a ! When the phone is on, all drivers are working perfectly. I'll try another computer for sure, just baffles me why everything but fast boot works :-/
Its not about what you know , but who you know.
Figured it out with help from kaerey on irc. Had to go into drivers and search manually for the driver.
1: get into boot loader
2. Open device manager
3. Click on android with yellow !
4. Select update driver
5. Search manually
6. Select android devices
7. Select Google under manufacturers
8. Select fast boot
9. Install and enjoy having fast boot again
To access recovery in boot loader:
1. Vol + twice
2. Power button
3. Your in recovery
Thanks again to kaerey from IRC
Its not about what you know , but who you know.
And what divers are you using?
I cant install drivers even in manual search mode.
I cant find fastboot in the list of Google... many zte and adb stuff but no fastboot
Hi
I have an AT&T HTC ONE that is stuck in a bootloop. I can go into fastboot mode but not my recovery. I wanted to try to reflash the recovery but whenever I try to flash it on my Win 8.1, it says waiting for device. However, the prompt "adb devices" does not detect my phone.
!) I have installed SDK Tools.
2)I have HTC sync installed for the drivers.
3)I have the recovery image
Any help would be great.
Side Question:
If I factory reset and reinstall clockwork recovery, will I still be able to access my back up or does factory reset wipe everything???
Thanks.

Yeah, I got my roommates computer. Installed HTC SYNC, SDK Tools, used USB 2.0 drivers and the phone was not detected.
Could I have possibly installed SDK tools incorrectly???
So long story short my cousin tried to flash the SlimKat ROM the other day and somehow managed to soft brick his phone. Now it gets stuck on the splash screen of "HTC Quietly Brilliant". I thought it would be an easy fix by sideloading a new ROM by adb but that didnt work. I can get it into bootloader (1.44.0000) and fastboot but the real problem is that the computer doesnt recognize the phone at all. I uninstalled and reinstalled all the drivers and have tried 2 different computers and 3 different cables. I can get it to say fastboot usb but whenever I type a fastboot command it gets stuck "waiting for device" and when i type "adb devices" it doesn't find any device.
Has anybody seen this or have a solution?
hold vol down + power... Until boot loader shows up, select recovery.

So now it finds the adb device, but when i do
adb sideload (filename).zip
It only comes up with a list of available adb commands. Am I not doing the command right? As far as I can see the phone has no /system partition and it cant mount /external_sd to install the old ROM zip from the sd
U have to move the ROM into the adb.exe folder, rename the ROM into ROM.zip

Thanks for the help. I ended up following the instructions from the very bottom of this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Flashing_Guide_-_Android
After that it worked great!
i messed up. i had cwm recovery rom running, but i did not install it. then i installed cyanogenmod. now recovery is cyanogenmod, but i want it to be cwm recovery. im stuck i dont know how to do what i want.
when i boot into recovery, i get cyanogenmod. adb and fastboot commands do not seem to be working. like i cant switch to fastboot via adb reboot bootloader. (no laughing please... is that because i flashed the custom rom???)
google play is not installed yet either because adb and fastboot isnt working like it was before i flashed cyanogenmod. i was going to try to download the cwm rom manager again to help me install (permanently) cwm recovery rom.
im so lost and a noobie, so details for replies please. and thank you for the help.
Its hard to give details in replies without details in your question, please give as much information about your device as possible, especially the make and model
But generally speaking fastboot will only work in bootloader and adb will only work in os and recovery mode
To give more specific answers on what your steps should be please give more device specifics

I don't believe cyanogen has made a recovery since the g1 days so I doubt you have this. But if your not sure what recovery you have upload a pic of it.
If you want a new recovery download the appropriate recovery for your device and use fastboot to install it, see here for help

If you continue to have issues with adb or fastboot commands, post all input/output from cmd/terminal here

I BET THATS IT! i installed the custom rom, so debugging needs to be turned back on. the setting was overwritten with the new rom flash. duh! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
for those of you coming to this thread after me, enable developer mode by going to Settings > About Phone and tapping on Build Number 7
Update: this did solve my problem/question. also watch cyanogenmod's screen. it will ask you to confirm debugging mode use each time or you can say its ok from this pc all the time. the latter worked best for me. another thing i ran into was phone would not power off unless i unplugged the usb cable. if i asked it to power off with the usb cable plugged in, it rebooted instead.

here's how i resolved my complete question:
1) enabled developer mode by going to Settings > About Phone and tapping on Build Number 7
2) activated advanced boot options by going to Settings > Developer Options > Advanced reboot (check it)
3) told phone to always allow debugging mode from my/this pc
4) booted into fastboot mode
5) plugged in usb cable
6) entered the command "adb reboot-bootloader" to switch to fastboot mode
7) entered the command "fastboot devices" to ensure i was in fastboot mode
8) entered the command "mfastboot flash recovery <downloaded.img>" to flash cwm
9) unplugged usb cable
10) reboot into recovery to verify flash was successful
Hello,
I've installed the CM13 correctly but as other people I couldn't connect with wifi (had "authentification problem"), so I tried the reset factory.
The problem now is the tablet get an infinite loop at boot with the cyanogen logo and I cannot access the Bootloader.
I don't know what to do ... I'd appreciate your help
Just go into recovery, wipe clean, flash rom of choice, flash Gapps, reboot
And if cm13 is having an issue for you just try another rom, there are still many to choose from in the Nexus 10 forums

the recovery mode doesn't work. I may have found a solution to the soft unbrick using fastboot and the cmd but my tablet isn't recognized by the PC. I have tried to uninstall the driver, download manually it, that always result as an installation failed.
I can't see my nexus in PC but there is still the sound when I plug.
