Download flashtool software, drivers needed can be found inside drivers folder. Just install the driver.
I have been searching all over xda and google to try and solve this problem and I'm stuck. I'm trying to unlock the boot loader for my Nexus 7 (2013) that I just got yesterday and I have been following the video guide.
The problem I'm having is that when I do command "adb devices" it shows that my Nexus 7 is connected to my PC (windows 7) but it says "offline" and when I do "adb reboot bootloader" I get the error "device offline".
I have my device in developer mode and I enabled USB debugging in the settings already. In my search throughout the forums and followed the steps to make sure that my drivers were up to date. I tried doing it by manually selecting the drivers and by using the SDK Manager to install the Google USB drivers, neither of these fixed the problem.
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, please help!
Have you tried rebooting into the bootloader manually then if "fastboot devices" work?
If you aren't seeing a popup on your tablet when adb tries to communicate with it, then you need to upgrade your adb client to the latest version.
They added some RSA verification step to the adb connection and if you have the old client it just says device offline.
You can update "platform-tools" in the sdk manager or find a download of just the adb, fastboot client and 2 libraries. If I remember the link I'll add it.
Here's the link for just the new ADB and libraries.

Sounds like a driver issue.
Make sure you've got the correct drivers installed. Open up Device Manager in Windows 7 and manually update the driver - http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html
Read the tutorial and watch/follow the video: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2382051
Got this on a Mac today, on the first time I connected this device.
Updated to latest android-sdk, re-installed platform-tools, and it worked fine.

Thanks for the response! I got the ADB part working and now I'm trying to finish with the rooting process.

Are you saying you have a download problem or a flashing problem?
The twrp archive I used wasn't a flashable zip. It was just a zip file with twrp.img archived.
You need to unzip and flash the twrp.img (it has a longer name) using
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I'm currently s-on and unlocked with ARHD 9.2. I can't get any drivers to allow me to be detected in fastboot and I've used multiple USB cords. I'm just wondering if there would be any 4.0+ ROMs that would be compatible with my current boot.img or if there are any alternative methods to flashing my boot.img
I hope you're familiar with Terminal Emulator. Follow below link and get things running.
And yeah,every kernel suppose to be specific for The ROM has designed.

As long as you are S-ON you can install 4EXT Recovery Touch to flash any kernel with smartflash.
You could also try to make your device S-OFF.Try this guide if you like.
Why you can't install drivers for fastboot?
Can you see your phone gets recogniced in device manager?
Just download and install latest htc drivers.(If you download and install htc sync it installs the latest drivers but you have to uninstall sync after installation.It won't remove htc drivers)
If you have win8 you probably have to install drivers manually.

I am on Windows 8. It gets recognized but fails to install drivers. I'll see if I can get that going and report back here. Thanks a lot guys!
I can't get my fastboot to recognise my phone. Adb works fine but fastboot doesnt come back with a device after I fastboot Devices in download mode. Any suggestions? I'm using windows 10
in linux I have to sudo fastbbot. so maybe if you run the shell as admin?
I don t have win 10, but what shows the devicemanager?
can you force to install the drivers again?
I fixed it. I ran htc manager. Then I installed Google usb drivers in sdk manager. Dont know which one done The trick
Updated to May via OTA sideload. Now trying to flash the patched boot all I get is "waiting on device". Please no simple answers like reboot or try new cable. Been there,,, Windows 11.
Make sure your adb binaries are up to date. Download the latest tools from the sdk and try again.
Solved it. Had to follow the bellow guide.
