Are you sure you have the right drivers installed ?
If you dont have the .76 eng-hboot, most fastboot commands wont work. In fastboot....type: fastboot oem h. If your command isnt listed, it wont work

Hey guys, I'm trying to follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715525
However, when I boot into Fastboot USB ADB doesn't recognize the device... But it does while the system is running. Help please?
How do I fix this?
You can only use fastboot commands when you have the .076 ENG Hboot.
Ok I can use commands VIA fastboot when the phone is on. The problem is using commands when the phone is in bootloader. It says "fastboot usb" But when i am trying to use commands like :adb reboot" i get a " device not found " error
The device is Eng s off and ship s off
Tryed this with 3 computers with no luck
I have all the needed drivers.
And using commands in bootloader worked before.
you cannot use adb commads while in fastboot, not will your device show up with the "adb devices" command, you can only issue fastboot commands. so to reboot you must use the command "fastboot reboot" and to show your device you can use the command "fastboot devices"

are you using leedroid's rom? i had the same problem, when i used his rom, some of the permissions in /system/bin/ are wrong on his rom, they are rwsr-xr-x and they should be set to rwxr-xr-x, try using adb

I was using Leedroid, i f**** up and installed multiple .zip at once.... first "leedroidRom.zip" and then "theme" without rebooting between.
After that it stopped working ( I think )
I then wiped everything and installed Android Revolution 2.0.12..
"Terminal"
# Reboot
not permited!
About the question i asked earlier. So its not possible to use adb commands trough fastboot. only fastboot commands.
so i have to use : "fastboot flash" and "fastboot push" to execute commands ?
you cannot use the push command while in fastboot for the same reason you cannot use ADB commands, because at that moment android is not booted, you can use adb commands from recovery though
here are the fastboot commands i know of:
fastboot devices - fastboot devices will give you a list of devices connected to the computer. This is also a good way to make sure that your phone is actually connected to the computer.
fastboot reboot - this will reboot your phone normally
fastboot oem unlock - Dont think this works with the DHD
fastboot erase XXX - Will erase the partition XXX (such as userdata, cache) - mainly used for resetting phone and clearing userdata / factory settings.
fastboot flash XXX YYY - This will flash XXX partitionn with YYY image
Hi, i'm running through the HTC Desire HD: Full Update Guide, on my phone for the first time and am stuck at 'Flashing Radio'...
When I do this:
"On the computer, open terminal and run the following command:
fastboot flash radio radio.img"
I simply get:
< waiting for device >
Any idea what I am doing wrong?
Is there any other way to update the radio to 26.04.02.17?

sounds like your phone isn't being recognised in fastboot, if your booted into fastboot check that the computer has the correct drivers installed.
try the command fastboot devices to check device is connected before issuing any fastboot commands
Clockworkmod recovery doesn't work(only get a blank screen after I make my selection), and my phone wont boot. I'm trying to flash a rom via fastboot or adb.
I installed fastboot and adb using this guide:
fastboot adb guide
I downloaded htc sync to install the drivers.
I'm trying to follow this guide for flashing a new rom
xda flashing guide
when i try "fastboot -w" the command prompt returns "erasing 'userdata'... FAILED <remote: not allowed>"
it seems the sollution for this is posted here. but i don't know how to flash an hboot. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I've been searching and all i could find was fastboot commander, but when I try to flash a new Hboot or my recovery image it returns "flash FAILURE"

In clockwork use the trackball to select items, not the power button.
To use most fastboot commands you need an unlocked bootloader, or the engineering bootloader. To chanhe your bootloader you need to be s-off, or do an entire ruu.

Wasn't using the trackball. This is embarrassing. Thanks for all the helpful info, you're awesome.
=X
wow this is funny, but sadly it helped me also
In case you'd still like to know how to do it via fastboot, here are some steps:
Place the .zip in the same directory as the adb and fastboot executables
Double check the md5 of the .zip before proceeding to prevent bricking the device
Run the following commands in command prompt:
fastboot devices //Verify that the device is detected
fastboot erase cache //Not sure if this is completely necessary, but the guide I followed included it as a step
fastboot oem rebootRUU //Boot into RUU, which lets you flash HBOOT, radio, etc.
fastboot flash zip [zipname.zip] //Replace zipname.zip with the actual name of the file you are flashing
fastboot reboot-bootloader //The guide I pulled this info from didn't specifically say that you should reboot to bootloader rather than to Android, but I have seen others mention that you should always reboot to the bootloader first after flashing an HBOOT or radio. I would do this just in case
thehiggins you saved the day
Thanks You
Didn't know I had to be in RUU. When do I need to be in RUU, when flashing the boot or any boot related img/zip ?
Ok so i tried going back to stock and used a toolkit for mac but it didn't work, I mean everything seemed to flash ok but got stuck waiting in the bootloader for about 30 minutes and nothing happened. Im now trying to flash the image-razor-kot49h which is 4.4.2 for flo and placed it in a folder called platform tools from the adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20131030/sdk. Once I open terminal and bring this folder as the directory by cd command, i then try ./adb devices and it shows no device as connected. I read somewhere that i need to enable usb debugging option in developer settings but i cant access it since I am stuck in fastboot. the toolkit flashed stock recovery over twrp so i cant even flash a different rom. I tried using the toolkit again and its strange that it is able to detect my device. I guess my only option is to flash the stock images but my computer cant detect my device HELP ANYONE PLEASE.
Try fastboot devices instead of adb devices. I don't think adb works in fastboot mode.

The fastboot binary has to be in your PATH.
ok i solved my issue by doing each command manually. Thnks to those who helped.
