Fastboot problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a mtk6580 the phone only stays in fastboot for 10 seconds and doesnt respond to any fastboot comands.I don't think its a driver problem because it works fine on another phone which is also a 65xx. I also tried a linux vm. With the same results. Mostly i just want to root the phone. Even set my bios so the usb are recognized as usb 2. As well i tried a lot of one click solutions to get root. Also miracle box and mtk-tools. The phone has no reset button and the battery cant be removed. Please help.

Hero USB Connection Not Recognized

Hi all
I have a problem with my hero not being recognized by my PC. This happened after a weekend trip and i charged the phone with iphone USB adapter as i lost my one and now after returning from my trip i connect my hero to my PC to be greeted with the "USB Device Not Recognized" message.
Also my Amon_Ra recovery i used has been wiped and i cant get into recovery or install any rom at all.
I am thinking this might be the same USB brick that affected some Desire owners but i am not sure.
So please if anyone can help me, please do.
Thanks in advance.

this happen to me. What i did was switch my phone off, plug in the usb and switched it back on. then wait for windows to say it not recognised. then go to to device and printers and uninstall the drivers for the phone. Disconnect and reconnect the usb back to the phone and it it will pick it up.
Can you try booting in fastboot and tell me if that is recognized?
it still doesnt recognize it in fastboot

Sounds like its just a driver issue. Have you tried plugging it in, when you get that message open DEVICE MANAGER,... Find the yellow "!", right click it, uninstall, unplug phone, reboot PC.
.... Then use BTDAG's [Guide] How to Setup Correct Hero Drivers (for x86 & x64 users)
I hav the same problem. In recover mode it works but then turn on the phone, there is no popup options as before. Tried around with drivers but didnt work either. But found a solution which is very convenient. I dont know if it works on other ROM versions but I'm on 2.1 (Villain10).
- Install extended control widget (dont remember where I got it but you can google, it seems I cannot find it on the market)
- Add this widget to the home screen: Menu/Add to Home/Widget/ Extended Control bar (you can choose the size from 1x1 to 1x4) then select "Mass storage" at the bottom, apply.
Now you have a widget to turn on/off USB storage. When you connect Hero to the PC, just click on this widget then the PC will connect to the SD card, and click one more to turn it off.
ok i will give that a try

No i havent and i gave up trying because i dnt think there is a fix for it. if yours is unrooted and the warranty is still valid you should consider returning it to HTC maybe they might replace it
got the same problem. Any solution so far ??

Did you try that?..... You need to do the reboot PC/Laptop after uninstalling ALL HTC drivers! Then when you reboot PC, plug phone back in, should say "not recognised" again,... then follow BTDAG's guide. T'is definitely a driver issue!
tried flashing 3 roms, modaco, radug and now kimera... none working.
can connect in fastboot, it shows up in device manager as android 1.0
ive tried 3 different usb cables and 4 differet pcs, still there is no response on my phone !!!
using villian rom 10.0 rite now.
okay it boots up into fastboot and fastboot usb shows up on the screen in red,
BUT when i use the "adb devices" command in adb it doesnt show the device,
it is showing as android 1.0 in devices and printers (windows 7)
You need to use....
fastboot devices
....when your are in fastboot.
What happens when you go into your recovery, select "Toggle MS/USB" with USB connected to PC?
okay
fastboot devices command shows some serial number.
then i tried adb remount, it gave an error....
enabling usb-ms with cable attached gives no response
ok i think it might be USB driver like ddotpatel said but i am not sure.
i reinstalled my whole windows 7 to 32bit now instead of the 64bit version i was using before and today i just connected my hero to my PC and windows 7 did its thing and installed the drivers and finally my hero can mount the SD card in my PC again although i kept getting this can perform faster in USB 2.0 port or something like that i didn’t care as long as i can mount my SD card again.
now went into fastboot and used the fastboot device command and i could see my hero serial no. but when i try to flash the amonra recovery i got the permission error (i cant really remember). i tried flashing using the adb method but still no luck.
so i went to market and downloaded rom manager and used it to flash clockwork recovery and now i could boot to clockwork recovery.
from this recovery i can now flash any rom i want and although there are still a few more problems i am glad now that i can flash custom roms again.
the problem i can see so far but i can deal with is
1. i don’t think fastboot commands work even if the phone is detected.
2. SD card mounts at USB 1.1 speed. (i have tried different ports and cable but still the same thing and this is the ports i use for my N1, Desire and my other android phones with USB 2.0 speed)
PS: adb commands for pushing and removing apps is working.
Hope this can be helpful to those experiencing the same problem.
Instead of re-installing your entire OS just use usbdeview to remove the failing drivers.
Also remove any old HTC Sync installs and install the latest version.

[Q] Ainol Novo 7 Paladin - not able to boot and recover

Hi,
i have problem with my Novo 7 Paladin. One week ago i installed Google Maps update. After that my tablet was very strange. Sometimes when it go to sleep it won't wake up. I had to press power on again. Later that week there was some graphical glitch on screen (blinking colors). And now i can't boot at all. So i tried the SD card method to recover system. The problem is that i can't boot. Combination of keys like VOL+ and POWER or VOL+ and RESET doesn't work. Then i tried the original USB Boot Tool from Ainol. This tool doesn't work either.
USB Boot Tool
1) install correct USB drivers (press VOL+ and plug USB)
select drivers from tool/drivers/4770
2) unplug USB and start USBBootTool.exe
3) press VOL- and plug USB
4) it says BOOT... please waite0% (attachment boottool.JPG)
5) after some time of waiting the error apears (attachment boottool2.JPG)
Can someone help me please?
Great, so I can throw it away!

Tested, same result.
when you connect your tablet to the PC, do you see any devices appear/disappear?
if you use linux, try lsmod (LSMOD lowercase) to see if your tablet shows on the list.

If it appears in devices, it's not completely dead. I don't have enough windows experience, but other people had occasional success installing correct drivers and reflashing the device using Ingenic USB Boot Tool or something like that. If the reflash process does not start, most probably it's because you have installed incorrect drivers.

Bricked Tablet

I really Need Help! My computer wont recognize my tablet in fastboot mode, and my tablet wont read my micro SD card, also when i turn it on normally it stays at splash screen and when its plugged in to the computer the computer starts installing the drivers and it fails to install each time. I go to troubleshooting options and it states code 10. which states device cannot start.
I Have looked for ways around this, like manually installing the drivers, and my computer wont let me. Also the tablet can go to both: bootloader, and Clockworkmod recovery.
I factory reset my tablet so I cannot install anything, untill i get it to connect to my computer.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit on my computer!
Any help is very much appreciated!
Thanks!

What do you see in device manager with the tablet plugged into the pc and running in fastboot?
Maybe this helps
I had a similar issue but my tablet couldn't be identified by windows, at first i thought it was my drivers so i tried to install new ones but windows wouldn't let me stating the same code 10. At the end it was a defective usb cable, i bought a new one and everything worked all right the first time i plugged it in. And by the way i was stucked at the CWM loop. Hope this helps and sorry for my bad english.

Im not sure if it is a bad usb cable, i think it is my computer because my computer doesnt even recognize my iphone and i have itunes installed,
i think it is partially due to a funky computer for me.

[Q] Nexus wont boot

Hi
New on here so sorry if I don't know to much
I have a Nexus 7 2012. Install Timurs kernel and Rom on my tablet and installed it in my car, and it worked great for months, then the other day it shut down. When I rebooted it, it gets stuck on the Google logo.
If I try boot into recovery it once again gets stuck at the Google Boot logo
I can get it into Fastboot mode but it wont connect to the PC. I am sure the Drivers are ok as I have another nexus 7 and i have today flashed a new rom using the WUGs Nexus Toolkit
Any Ideas anyone as at the moment I would class this as bricked as it wont boot, wont go into recovery and wont connect to the PC
Any advice would be hugely appreciated
Cheers

You can't go into your recovery?
Install ADB and try to connect your Nexus to your PC and enter "adb devices". See if your tablet is recognized like that.
How to setup ADB
Do not use toolkits with Nexus devices.

When you plug your tab in, does it even attempt to load drivers and just fails or does it not even recognize that you plugged anything in? Make sure by checking the Device Manager as you plug / unplug. If it just doesn't load correctly, then attempt to load the Naked Universal Drivers manually and then you should be able to get things back on track at least with fastboot flashing the stock img files back to it. If the Device Manager doesn't change or show any differences when you plug in the tab, then that's a bad thing... If you can boot to the bootloader still, most likely it can be fixed. If it only boots to a black screen and when plugged in shows the APX driver, you're boned. That problem IS fixable, but only if you would have saved your blob.bin and wheelie blobs before it went down, which I am certain you didn't do as it is not a common procedure.

Hmm. Very odd. Typically if the bootloader is still there, the rest is easily solvable. What happens when you choose the recovery option from bootloader? Unfortunately you have to test some more things to eliminate the easy stuff. These include trying different cords, ports, and computers. If possible, see if you can try a Linux PC as well or at least a Live CD. If TWRP still loads at all and supports USB OTG, you might be able to load something from it as a long shot.

Sucks man. Such a random thing and not typical of most Nexus issues. This is the only other option I can think of then: http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/asus-nexus-7-2012/ - Brick service. These guys are legit. They have a great reputation and I've personally used their services twice (different devices) and one was fixed while the other was a lost cause, but Josh was nice enough to refund some of the money since it didn't work. I'm guessing they would need to do what's called a JTAG service where they hook up (usually solder) a special cable to a specific port on the board and it kind of circumvents the other issues and reloads the OS back on.
Thanks for all you hep mate will prob give them a try
No problem. Good luck!

Is there any way to fix this? No Usb-Debugging, Bootloop, etc...

Hello guys,
im starting to lose hope that my phone will ever get to work again. I tried flashing a rom via TWRP, which led into a bootloop. After that I tried flashing another version of TWRP, which let to the fact, that everytime I now press Power + Volume down it also gets into a bootloop and does not show up TWRP. After that I tried connecting it to my PC in Fastboot mode, but since no USB-Debugging is enabled and cant be enabled, it is also not working, even with Universal Adb drivers installed, windows does not recognize any device is connected... so my question is, if there is any hope left or my phone is just dead...
I really hope you can help me.

Thank you for your help. I was trying to do it with this mega unbrick guide, but at step 4 I connected it to my pc and the device manager didn't show up anything. Do I need to install any drivers before doing that or uninstall the adb drivers I previously installed?
Thank you
Finally it worked! The problem was the usb cable I was using!
