Fastboot Not Sending Flash Commands - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, currently trying to flash TRWP in my Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1. Already unlocked the bootloader and everything but ive just hit a brick wall. The fastboot console recognizes my phone when i type fastboot devices, but when i send the command to flash the recovery nothing happens, the CMD just stops responding as if is loading something but i have waited for about 1 hour and nothing happens, can someone please shine me a light on this problem? Thank you in advance .

Hi , did you bricked your device or what is going on ?
If the problem is just fastboot terminal then reinstall your drivers and disable driver signature , also use USB deview aplication to uninstall hidden drivers for your device : https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
Another way is to install this version of minimal adb and fastboot:

fastboot "waiting for device"

Hi there,
I have a problem that i suspect others may have, i did my searching on google and on xda but found nothing so i have no other choice but to post. I am trying to fastboot flash a prerooted .67 firmware, i put my phone into fastboot and connected the usb cable, the led STAYS blue that seems to be fine(i have installed fastboot drivers using flashtool /drivers directory), i type in the fastboot command to flash it and it just sticks at "waiting for device".
Any ideas?
Thanks
What happens when you type:
fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version
Also:
1. Disable any antivirus
2. reboot your PC
3. Change to another USB port
4. Make sure the .img is in the same folder as the fastboot.exe
Try fastbooting an official firmware instead if that works then I believe you have encountered the 'bug' in the bootloader that is currently stopping any custom roms

Hi,
you know that every smartphone has a flash and a fast boot Feature ?
Some Smartphone, look´s like Sony, use:
Speaker UP Button and USB Connect for Fastboot
(by Sony the Home Button lights blue)
and
Speaker Down Button and USB Connect for Flash
(by Sony the Home Button lights green)
For Fastboot.exe ........ xy.img must be use the Fastboot
Feature.
In first using Fastboot.exe, after Phone Connect you must
wait that the PC find all Drivers.
If Fastboot doesn´t work again, maybe you need "SDK Android"
and "Google SDK Driver"... will find over Net.
Doesn´t work again, the use "Flashtool.exe" Methode and
convert the xy.xy Firmware to xy.ftf for Flashtool use.
Onex1
my version is 0.5
i tried all of this except the last point of Onex1. Nothing works still sticks at waiting for device. Also havent restarted my pc i will try that soon but i think that might be a long shot.
Also my device is recognised as an adb device if that helps.
Any ideas guys? I have been trying but now im all spent. My xperia s is unlocked and factory bootloader unlocked if that helps
I know this thread is really old, but I was having this same issue and it was fixed by using a newer version of the Android SDK. So if you're having problems, try updating!
U must enable USB debugging mode
Send from Xperia U
i have the same issue
power on off button is broke
i can boot to recovery but i cant select to flash anything because of the button its not working
adb works for me too because its recognized when i write adb devices but when i write fastboot devices nothing happens and everything i do it says waiting for device
anyway PrakashGD, he said adb is working, that means USB Debugging is ON, if it was off adb would've not worked duh
Ensure fastboot driver is installed

Bootloop : No USB debugging No Recovery

Hello,
Recently I flashed a CWM file on my android 'Lava Iris X1 Grand'. Now my phone is stuck in a bootloop. For some reason i cant enter recovery mode even before my phone was stuck in a bootloop. I am not sure whether my phone has USB debugging enabled or not. I have even rooted my android with KingRoot. I have downloaded your Minimal Adb and Fastboot but it cant find my device.
Overall problem:
1) Phone Stuck in Bootloop
2)USB debugging enabled ? Not sure
3) Can't enter recovery mode
4) ADB wont find my device
Note : When I used Minimal Adb and Fastboot, when i type Fastboot devices some numbers appear but when I used the command 'adb devices' my device is not shown. I have a backup at my phone through the Flashify app but since recovery mode cant show I cant recover it.
Please help me out here. I don't know what else to do.
Thank You in advance
Fixed
Sorry posted in wrong section
My phone is fixed now using SP Flash Tool

Redmi note 3 not getting detected in fastboot mod

Hey friends i was able to unlock bootloader of my REDMI NOTE 3 OFFICIALLY.
I wan to root the device and install TWRP but for tat i have to connect my phone in fastboot mode.
The thing is phone is recognised as an adb device when it is on but after putting the phone in fastboot mode my laptop is not showing in cmd after " fastboot devices" command
plz help if anyne know how to fix this.
How are you putting it in fastboot mode?
did you already install correct driver in your pc?
you can try to instal latest mi pc suite which will help you to instal correct driver for your phone.
If you're already success unlocking with official way..then it's mean your fastboot driver already correct (if you're using the same computer when you're unlocking before)
Maybe i think you're missed something to put your phone into fastboot mode..
First way you can go into fastboot mode with ADB command while your phone already ON, just typing command "adb reboot bootloader" then enter..your phone will reboot into fastboot mode
Second way to go into fastboot mode firstly you must turn off your phone..just wait until that phone is truely OFF..
then press and hold volume down button..then followed with pressing and hold power button..your phone will booting into fastboot mode.

Help device doesn't show in ADB (bootloader unlocked)

At first, I installed the Windows 10 drivers and the first time I put my phone in Fastboot & Rescue mode it showed up on the ADB and I could unlock the bootloader, then I wanted to install TWRP but now the device doesn't show up anymore in the bootloader mode... Any ideas? I also tried Ubuntu with no success But I can clearly see it in the device manager.
What does the command "fastboot devices", when in fastboot obviously, return?

Fastboot help

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.
