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!

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.

Hello everyone, I'm using Redmi Note 3 and I have tried rooting it several times.
I have unlocked the bootloader. I have also installed the adb drivers.
When I connect phone in fastboot mode and write 'fastboot devices' in cmd it doesn't return anything. But when I connect when its on, adb devices returns the device code.
Please help.
Same, happens to mine too. Used to work with a previous install of windows, but now, nope.
Had this issue too.
Try going to Device Manager and check to see if Kedacom USB Device shows up. Under which, Android Bootloader Interface should be present. Install minimalist ADB and fastboot and right click Android Bootloader Interface. Click Update Driver Software, browse computer, and then click the option to list driver files already present on your drive. It should pull up a fastboot driver that's an older version than the one you currently have. Install that and fastboot will work again.
Doesn't work
Can you please link the files for download when we're updating the driver software.

For fastboot you must use "fastboot devices". ADB and fastboot modes are completely different, learn more about them for example here https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/use-adb-fastboot-android/
I got it to work. I used another computer. I think I am having issues with ADB drivers on my computer. I will see what I can do.

First of all, you'll need to learn the difference between ADB and fastboot (they also use different drivers). If you follow one of many guides, you should be able to get it working in a few minutes. [emoji846]
Quick reminder:
ADB - used when phone's fully running
Fastboot - phone in a special mode ("turned off"), ready for flashing
What has happend with fastboot? I have a rooted phone with twrp 3.3.1.0.
I have used fastboot commands to flash boot.img and recovery.img for years.
Suddenly out of the blue i can´t connect with the phone in fastboot mode. I have tried everything, all kind of different windows drivers, emma, flashtool, drivers from sony, latest driver form google. but i cant get my phone to show up as a device in fastboot mode using fastboot commands. Are there something that has changed lately?
I can connect in flash mode and adb commands works normal.
Usb debugging are on, and I have tried to boot pc without driver signature check.
I have read topics for several days googling and I simply cant get it to work in fastboot.
Please help.

Works like a charme..... Thanks:good:
I am on an older macbook pro running High Sierra. the phone I'm using is a Blu G5 running android 9. I have the developer options unlocked and oem unlocked and usb debugging checked. When i open my terminal i type cd and drag and drop the platform tools folder into the terminal window changing the directory to the folder containing the adb and fastboot files. I can use adb commands such as adb devices and get the serial number and it says devices. So far so good. Then i reboot the phone into the bootloader manually or using command adb reboot bootloader and the phone goes into fastboot mode. I know because it says it on top of the screen in white letters. Then i run into the problem fastboot commands don't work. If I type in fastboot devices nothing but a new command line shows up. When i type in any other command like fastboot device or fastboot oem unlock it says "waiting for any devices." I wait and wait but nothing happens. I have looked on the internet for a solution but all i find is that the driver may not deinstalled properly. I have tried manually installing fastboot driver and used sdk manager to install the fastboot driver and I have tried it using the terminal in android studio but no matter what when i try useing fastboot commands i get the "waiting for any device" message. Does any have a solution or could anyone recommend and forum for android development on MacOSX?

Seems the Fastboot driver is invalid.

I have literally tried like 10 different sdk tool downloads just platform tool download basically every thing i can find. By chance would you or anyone out there have a working driver for MacOSX 10.13.6? or link a guide that can help me figure this out. I have made a little progress with a forum on xda about fastboot on macs but i still just keep getting the waiting for any device message.
@DimDreams
May also be that the Fastboot Android mode is not available on the phone in question.
I've had similar issues before and noticed that fastboot mode works better via USB 2.0 than USB 3.0. Maybe check which port you're using and switch. ADB seems to work well either way, however. Hope that helped.
I just had this problem as well and I found this, what worked for me is first boot your phone into bootloader mode with
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
. While in the bootloader fastboot worked for me. Hope this helps someone!
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.
