Ok, so here's my problem: I want to install twrp recovery on my z5c, the bootloader is unlocked and I can enter fastboot mode using the reboot bootloader adb command. But once I'm in fastboot mode and I enter fastboot devices, there is no response. I've downloaded the fastboot driver from the sony xperia site and placed it in my platform tools folder. Any ideas as to what might be the problem?

Used ADB to unlock bootloader but now ADB can't "see" the phone in download mode
I have a Windows 7 PC and I used that with Android SDK to unlock the bootloader and that worked. Now (trying to install recovery) I can put the phone (5.1.1) in download mode and the PC registers the phone in Device Manager but ADB doesn't see it. I've changed nothing with the PC since unlocking the bootloader and I've confirmed USB debugging is enabled on the phone but the command 'adb devices' lists nothing below 'List of Devices Attached'. Has anyone heard of this? Any troubleshooting suggestions?
Try go to device manage and look for a device with a strange name using the Android ADB device driver, choose update and look for a driver for LGE ADB device instead.
I did t think think adb works in download mode, and it sure won't work in bootloader
If you are on lollipop then use fastboot to flash TWRP

My PC doesn't detect my phone when I use Fastboot Devices when my phone is on Fastboot mode. I get a blank space in return. Can anyone help me with this? ADB works fine, it's only Fastboot. Is there a Fastboot driver that I might be missing?
Thank you.
Edit: I'm trying to unlock the bootloader of my phone.
Me too !
Drivers are here: https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb
These are the ones I use for ADB/Fastboot.
May I ask if anybody solved this already?
Having the same issue, tried various drivers, but fastboot won't find my phone
Help is highly apperciated!
Clock
If you using windows 10 have you disable the drivers signature verification.. And search on here (XDA) for Min ADB & Fastboot tools, easier than using SDK tools unless you modding apks ect..
Okay, I got this working.
When in fastboot mode, you have to go to the device manager, update driver, and manually choose the google fastboot driver. Then the ! is gone and it works.

I am having trouble rooting my Galaxy J7 Prime sm-j727t
Every Odin version I use with every TWRP tar file I try to use doesn't work. They either Fail or Odin stops responding when I try to load the tar file into the AP.
I've tried just using the CF Auto Root and those fail as well.
Any ideas what the issue is? I've been trying for two days with no success

You can check bootloader with dialer (search it).
Of phone has fastboot mode you can check bootloader with fastboot commands (search it too)

I tried a some other steps. Tried using the video on youtube on a tut. When I get to the oem unlock I just get stuck with a msg sayng "waiting for any device" my device is plugged in, from what I know I have updated the samsung drivers (from previous attempt of other methods) the adb bootloader cmd did put my phone into fastboot mode
(White box, blue arrow point down with a straight line under the point)
(Blue screen with Downloading...)
do not turn off target
What am I missing here?
I tried rooting TWRP 3.2.3. with Odin on the phone again and it still failed
Does anyone else have any more insight to a possible solution?

Witch android you are?
Hey all, I just got a G90 Pro that I want to put a ROM on, but something is up with the fastboot. I have the drivers installed according to what I found online, but when I go to fastboot there is no response from the cmd inputs. Nothing even shows up when I check fastboot devices. Has anyone had luck with these phones? I can't even unlock the bootloader!

I have done this, but did it again just to be sure, and device manager recognizes the G90 Pro under USB devices, and ADB finds it, but when I do the 'adb reboot bootloader' the fastboot mode text is on the bottom, yet fastboot commands don't do anything, not even 'fastboot devices'.
Edit: Fastboot devices is recognized in fastbootd, but not regular fastboot, yet the other commands don't work.
In your case fastboot is located in Android's user-space, hence you run this command sequence
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot <YOUR-COMMAND-HERE>
fastboot reboot

Fastboot reboot fastboot just brings up the fastboot command list. Assuming it's expecting me to try reboot bootloader.
That's really weird because your phone is running Android 10.
My info in settings definitely confirms that. Nothing seems to be working as expected though.

Is there any other possible solution? I still can't get fastboot commands to work after rebooting to fastboot mode from fastbootd.
Hello.
Today I updated from the Nord 5G to the Nord 2 5G.
DN2103_11_A.14
I have enabled developer mode, oem unlock and adb debug.
I can't access fastboot properly. And recovery is different from the previous Nord. There is no option to reboot to fastboot.
I use adb reboot-fastboot and I enter a sort of fastboot. It says:
fastboot_unlock_verify ok
The device is in fastboot mode which is only for debug Android devices. if you want to exit fastboot mode, please long press volume up nad power buttons simultaneously.
Phone is recognized in windows when in adb-mode (normal booted), but does not recognize it when in this new fastboot mode. Just an Android with an exclamation mark on.
Halp?

Don't own this device but try: "adb reboot bootloader" instead and test fastboot commands from there (don't navigate to Fasboot from bootloader).

This is normal behaviour with the OPN2 afaik. Your PC can access the USERDATA folder whilst in ADB mode (aka booted normally) and whilst in the recovery bios. Your pc CANNOT access the USERDATA folder when your phone is in fastboot, or at least I've never been able to on my Nord 2.
Your op didn't include what exactly you need help with. Everything you described is exactly intended behaviour. From my understanding your seem to have booted into fastboot mode, then noticed your PC can't access userdata. That's normal, you can still use fastboot commands and your PC is still connected to the phone. Your "My Computer" folder on PC not showing the phone shouldn't be any cause for alarm.
Now I'm starting to guess, because you might have failed to mention; Are you unable to send fastboot commands to your phone when its in fastboot mode?
Are you trying to flash a file?
What's the issue?

I am unable to send fastboot commands. Is not recognized by "fastboot devices". And this fastboot mode looks nothing like my previous phones. 2, X, 5T and Nord 5G. <waiting for device>
I want to do my "usual routine" with my new phones. Unlock, flash twrp or other recovery, and flash magisk for root.
After a "full wipe" of ADB and fastboot drivers, I reinstalled and got it working!
nothing. only recovery mode
vol down+ power =recovery mode
vol up + power = normal boot
I finaly boot into fastboot mode with adb command only (adb reboot bootloader)
With buttons wont work.
But i can't enable Volte/Vowifi (thats why i wanted to boot there).
Can you send adb commands when in recovery mode ?
I'm trying to enable VoLTE too, but adb only detect phone when powered normaly, not when in recovery mode.
i don't know about adb but in fastboot you can.
I can't enable volte/vowifi in fastboot with this commands.

Fastboot commands start with fastboot, those are adb commands.

Could you go into more detail on what you did in the entire process exactly? Did you use the drivers and adb install from the 15 sec installer? Did you simply uninstall them in the Windows Device Manager and click on "update drivers" to find the local drivers from the 15 sec installer? Which ones did you choose? Sorry, these might be dumb questions, but I'm admittedly very stupid when it comes to Windows and drivers in particular.
I did the exact thing I described above but I'm still just getting that message. Additionally, "fastboot devices" won't list anything and "fastboot oem unlock" will wait for the device for eternaty. "adb devices" on the other hand will list my device while not in Fastboot.
