[Q] PC doesn't recognize phone in fastboot - HTC Droid DNA

Hey
so my computer, running Win7Pro x64, is not recognizing my phone (HTC DNA verizon) in fastboot mode. it can see it in ADB both in android and recovery.
i'm trying to either follow moonshine or rumrunner to get my phone to go into s-off so that i'll be able to install the ROM i want.
little back story -
my daughter (11 months) was playing with a baby app and got into the phone settings and somehow made it so the notification bar was gone (though the settings still said it should be there) and also made it so the UI kept crashing. i tried reinstalling my ROM didn't correct it so i reset bask to factory. it got it back up and working
at this point i noticed there is an update for my ROM and so i went to install it and it got stuck at the boot screen. so i followed some tips from a guy in the ROM thread and sideloaded stock so i can attempt to go s-off. this is where i am now.
i'm not sure why fastboot is not working correctly. anyone have any ideas?

i did find that it was loading fine on my laptop. it was my desktop that wasn't working correctly. laptop recognizes the phone in fastboot.

Are you typing "fastboot devices" or "adb devices" when your phone is in fastboot?

Windows 8.1 broke the fastboot drivers. AFAIK there is no workaround or fix. Use another computer.
Update... you can go back to windows 8.0 by going to >settings >change pc settings, then I think it's the middle option to restart system and saves your files. This got me back to windows 8.0 and now my fastboot drivers work again.

i am also unable to go into fastboot mode,,but surprisingly adb recognized my devices,,but when i type "adb reboot bootloader" after that i get an error USB malfunctioned !!!,,please help me to unlocked my bootloader??? HTC DROID DNA,HBOOT 1.54.00 ,Firmware 3.06,,os4.2.2, sence 5

ADB - Device Offline

Hello all
I was trying to get S-OFF, but my phone is not being recognized as online in ADB. I'm almost positive that I have the correct drivers, etc installed because I had no problem rooting it/being recognized in fastboot. But when I do ' adb devices ' it shows the phone, but says offline. I've done kill server, start server... I've updated everything in the sdk... Debugging is on... I'm completely lost and don't know what to do.
Thanks
What happens when you type a command like "adb reboot recovery" (without quotation marks)?

Before you responded, I manually rebooted to recovery to make a back up, then rebooted back to system. Now when I do "adb devices" it shows the device and says "device", is this what I'm looking for?
Also, I did the "adb reboot recovery" and noting happens.... The cursor moves to next line and just blinks. Nothing more. The phone doesn't reboot.
Thanks
It should output the device serial number when you type "adb devices".

Strange. I've never seen the offline message in ADB before
You are booted into your ROM when trying to run ADB, correct?

I finally got it working; the problem was (apparently) the ROM... I was using RageLTE, but I restored a backup of Stock w/Goodies and everything was fine.
Unfortunately, It looks like my firmware is too new(?) and I can't use LazyPanda, and DirtyRancun has dropped support for Windows 8/64, so I guess I'll have to try the Live CD route....
Now im understanding, I have the same problem with Rage. I think i posted somewhere in that thtead. Didnt expierience it on any otber sense rom.

Update Your Android
I was having this same problem with Cyanogenmod 10.1 (a.k.a. JellyBean 4.2.2). I figured out that I had an older install of the Android SDK. I updated it, then unplugged and replugged my USB cable. The device prompted me with something like "is it okay to accept ADB from this computer?" I told it yes and now I can see my device in adb devices output again.
i have the same problem
tried but nothing happened
i guess i have problem in rom

So i could probably use a hand....

T-Mobile L769 - was rooted with LGPwn.apk
Followed this guide (I thought to a "T") but apparently I screwed up somewheres.
I believe I'm currently what you would call soft bricked. When i attempt to boot the phone i get the LG logo with "Security Error" just below it now.
will this guide help me unbrick my phone or am I now officially up $h!t creek?
if it helps the current KDZ was V20D and it was attempting to update to V20F but the update kept failing because we removed bloatware and then 10 minutes later saw a post informing us that that would stop OTA updates.
so you know.....a little help??
This happened to me. I flashed a recovery.img from a stock 20F using this fastboot command.....

how did you go about obtaining and then flashing the recovery.img? i have several KDZ's (20F, 20H, 20B and 20D) do i extract the .img from them somehow?
right now i can only get my phone to start up ind s/w upgrade?

If you already have fastboot for the L9, just turn off the phone, take out the battery, run start in admin mode, choose option 1, plug in the phone when it requests, and wait 4 seconds.....insert the battery and run those commands.

???....Okay. When it says waiting for device, at that moment plug it in with the battery in and pressing volume down. That's another way to get to fastboot.

The phone itself goes into fastboot but that's where it sticks and then resets

When you connect, make sure to have device manager open and see if the OMAP drivers are installed. If so, you should get the inverted white LG logo. At that point, you need to run the commands.

Okay. Here's another way to install the stock recovery thanks to rarsenaux post in August........
Open LG Mobile Update (Make sure you have internet on)
Input MEID (located behind battery)
Connect phone to computer via USB in S/W upgrade mode (Vol+ then insert USB)
Let LG download and install phone recovery
NOTE: Recovery stopped at 4% install, but just leave it alone, and it will install correctly. It never went past 4%
NOTE: This will return your phone to factory settings like the day you got it, so you will have to re-root if you use this method.
Sent from my LG-P769 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
This worked but I didn't have to enter in the MEID.
I plugged the phone in.
Installed the driver while it went through a couple checks to see if the phone was connected.
While it was doing that i re-installed the drivers (actually did this part 2 or 3 times)
It finally recognized that the phone was connected and told me some type of software was up to date.
I opened up the drop down at the top of the screen and hit "Update Recovery" and let it do it's thing.
I can now turn the phone on without receiving the "Security Error" but my screens all wonky.
I've run LGPwn.apk and then reinstalled L9 Recovery but i can't boot into recovery to flash the tsfix. I have the option to boot to recovery when i open the recovery tool but the phone itself won't boot into recovery.

[Q] Driver Issues

I've searched and not found anyone with my exact issue so please forgive if this redundant.
I am unlocked and s-off with CWM v6.0.4.5. I've been on CM11 nightlies and unable to get my pc to see the phone(vista 32bit). I flashed back to CM10.2 and could then see the phone in windows. I wanted to install CM11 again with a clean start so I moved Rom and gapps to the pc and wiped and formated EVERYTHING in CWM intending to then sideload CM. Now I cannot get my pc to see the phone at all. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling HTC sync, tried different usb cables and ports and tried a different computer(windows 7 64bit) all to no avail.
Are there any tricks that can be done with drivers to make the pc see the phone or is there any other way for me to get files back on the phone. Any help is greatly appreciated.
In settings goto storage. Then open the menu in storage (either the 3 dot menu or the hardware button if remapped) and you will be able to pick USB COMPUTER CONNECTION

Thanks for the reply. I probably should have clarified that there is not a bootable rom on the device. The device has the bootloader and recovery and nothing else on it at all. To farther clarify, my pc does see my device as HTC6435LVW, it simply won't find the drivers even though they are installed and when I type "adb devices" in a command prompt it doesn't find my phone. Also tried putting the phone into fastboot and searching for "fastboot devices" and nothing comes up that way either.

Your Software/Firmware version is 2.06
Moonshine will work, it's how I got S-Off on my third DNA.
The first two I did the hard way.
Follow the instruction EXACTLY.
You will have to download the latest SDK tools and the correct drivers.
You must have ADB and Fastboot working.
Turn off your Firewall on your PC.
Uninstall HTC Sync.
This is all in the instructions. If you can't get it to work, maybe you shouldn't root your device.
Maybe tell us what error your getting????

If ADB and Fastboot both recognize device, then your drivers are okay.
Fastboot drivers are broken on Windows 8.1
Windows 8.0 and earlier work okay for me.
USB 2.0 port. Do not use a 3.0 port.

Let me know if you make any progress or not I will try my best to help you!
I had the same problem...
I have the drivers install. so when I do ADB devices, I see the device.
Therefore, I can get into Bootloader mode, but then not ADB nor FASTBOOT sees the device anymore.
To solve that, I scroll throught the options and select "restart bootloader" (darn or is it fastboot now? - don't remember, since I'm not home).
But then it works. "Fastboot devices: respond back that it found the device.
Then I could load flash the latest TWRP recovery .
hope this helps
