So, apparently Windows XP (in my case) sees my device as "Android" while it's booted in fastboot mode. Device manager says "Device not configurated properly" .
LG 's (and Google's) drivers are installed.
P.S.: Please don't ask me to change OS on my PC because I can't.

So, noone knows how to fix this.

Sorry, don't have any XP machine left.
But i would bet on the USB drivers.
Nothing else can trick the device manager.
I would try to uninstall all android related USB drivers and only install the original LG ones.
This is to avoid the wrong drive to catch the device first.
Fastboot works flawless on my side, on two pc's.
One with Win 8, one with Win 8.1 and Ubuntu Linux (on both OS)

Broken dtb.img in kernel / recovery or by zero-ing out laf partition (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf
By doing so, the phone can't enter Download mode.
Happy new year to everyone on the forums!

Please.. Need help.. I have 2 phone, one is Xperia Active (ST17) with stock GB 2.3.4 kernel and rom, and the other is Xperia Mini Pro (SK17i) with EXtended stock kernel and ExMIUIv4 2.8.10 ROM from expeacer. My active is recognized as adb driver by windows xp everytime I plugged it in (USB Debug enabled), but everytime I plugged in my mini pro, windows doesn't recognized it as ADB driver (yes, USB Debug enabled), it only recognized as removable media. Looking into device manager, i found sk17i under other devices (screenshot attached). Thanks in advance...

But when it is recognized in fastboot mode it should normally work in adb, too. But for what do you need adb?
Maybe download adb drivers in this thread...

Thanks. I've tried the driver, but without success
I have also tried these:
- sdk/extras/google/usb_driver directory
- I tried installing PdaNetA302.exe
- I tried installing flashtool_drivers from doomlord
- I selected 'install from specific location' -> choose a driver -> 'Android Phone' but it had none listed and the aforementioned driver directories did not work either when I selected them as 'Have Disk' options.
- Following this guide
- I also tried uninstalling all related devices and do the whole connecting thing again, but without success.
Actually what i need is DDMS command inside android sdk for taking screenshots of my phone during recovery mode. But since DDMS use adb interface, then it wouldnt be possible to use DDMS if my phone doesn't recognized by adb isnt it?
Help please?

Thanks for your advice, but apparently i dont need to do that.
I've just reinstall my windows xp sp3 and reconnect my phone. When driver for my phone was asked, i'm using flashtool driver from doomlord which i've extracted earlier using universal extractor.
But thanks again for all your attention... :good::good:
What is the cause of that? From my knowledge they use the same driver? ADB cannot detect device but fastboot can... This occurs in both windows 7 and xp.
Any help ?

Firstly check if driver is installed in device manager, then try to add its vendor id in %UserProfile%\.android\adb_usb.ini

Thanks for help, but I take what I said back, neither adb nor fastboot recognizes devices. It only works because I use device code...Using "fastboot devices" gives me nothing...
Also, where is .android folder in windows xp? I changed it in windows 7 (doesn't work), and now i want to try in xp?
Thanks again.

what hes trying to tell you is that you need to make sure you have the proper drivers for your phone installed in windows. what type of phone is it?
Hi,
i'm trying to flash kernel to my st15i under win8.1.
Application and drivers are installed corectly, but after connecting phone in fastboot mode there is a message:
"USB device not recognized"
Under win7 there was no problem (the same procedures, the same PC, the same phone, flashtool 0.9.11.0)

Windows 8 has new type of security, that disallows installing unsigned drivers. Thereby fastboot drivers are not installed.
Follow this guide to install fastboot drivers: http://flashtool.net/disabledrivers.html

I'm affraid that your guide helps in win8 not 8.1, where there is no problem with installing drivers. Drivers are installed without any problems like in win8. Problem appears while you try to connect phone in fastboot mode.

Same applies. Drivers are not installed, otherwise it would detect your device.

Yes, you are right, something is wrong.
But drivers are installed correctly, becouse of lack problem during installation, and final windows info.
It seems that win 8.1 must have new flashtool/fastboot drivers.

Because you have win8.
In 8.1 there isn't active option "Driver signature enforcement" - there is no need to disable it.
.. and "PC settings" are different - this manual doesn't fit.

I seriously doubt, that 8.1 does not have such option.
I will try to look further into that, will update once I find anything.

I've tried this manual, uninstalled/installed few times flashtool/flashtool drivers - nothing changed... please help
This is weird, I am running out of ideas.
One of the last possibilities is that the drivers are not compatible with RC version of 8.1.
i also have the same issue..the pc doesnt recognise the device in fastboot or flashboot mode..
as for my idea, 8.1 is just a preview version..
i have 8.1 installed in pc and 7 in laptop.
so better work in 7 pal.
whenever i need to flash i use 7..
i think there is no solves for this issue..it has to be fixed by microsoft i think..
better you ask the questions to the windows support pages, genius people are waiting out there to help you..
anyways.. cheers!!
Guys, I have a xperia mini st15i device with CrDroid 4.4.4 KitKat Rom. Recently I tried to flash RR Lollipop roms Kernel on my device. But I failed to boot on fastboot mode over and over again. I have tried different cables, different usb even different pc's. But all the time i tried to connect it to usb cable holding volume up button the blue light( which is counted as a signal of fastboot mood) blinks once and phone went into charging mood. If i connect it on flashtool, flashtool recognise my device. If i try to boot device into fastboot via adb through flashtool it just lost connection with phone and phone goes into regular boot.
Guys please help me with this.what can i do now? what i am doing wrong? I am totally stucked with this since last few days.

my mi a3 is not recognized when in fastboot mode by the computer
I had this problem just some couple of hours ago and what you have to do (or at least it solved this in my end) is go to Manage Devices, scroll to TP-Link Android Phone, expand it and right click Android Bootloader Interface and uninstall without deleting the driver, then refresh for hardware changes and it will install the driver again and fastboot will work this time.

I'm facing this same issue. Please can you tell me where I can see Manage Devices on my computer? I'm using Windows 10.
I had the same issue. I tried all the methods that i researched. Even tried virtual machines running Windows 7 and Linux but same thing happens. I thought it was a Windows 10 issue. Til 1 day i tried to use a different cable, and DAMN! that fixed it.
same here, recognized as adb device but not recognized by fastboot.
I'm using Linux and fastboot work well.
The problem is that with lsusb no device is displayed, so I think it's a bootloader issue, is the bootloader environment corrupted? is there other setting to enable other then enable usb debug and enable OEM unlock?
Go to device manager right klik on android device and update the driver automatic.thats all.
U had the same problem and i solved with this.
Probably you don't have installed correctly fastboot drivers
