Hey,
trying to flash the preview. Enabled adb in dev. settings and when the watch is normally powered on i see my watch in adb devices. However, after typing adb reboot bootloader and being in fastboot mode, it doesnt find my device.
Short said: PC recognizes watch on adb, but not on fastboot in fastboot mode, have tried many adb versions etc. but didnt help.
It also says in device-manager "Android", with a yellow triangle when being in bootloader/fastboot mode.
Cables are ok!!
Thanks for any help!
You need drivers to be installed.

If you just type "flash-all.bat" (no quotes) and hit Enter it should still work. It does for me.

I am having Moto M XT1663 phone I bought was already boot unlocked so i decided to Install recovery and Root so that I can enjoy rooted things.
The problem is that the phone not detectable in Fastboot mode phone can only be detected in ADB mode. When I write command "ADB devices" it shows my device.
If I want to reboot into boat loader and use fastboot devices after hitting enter it shows nothing and no error appears.
I google about my phone's drivers that should be installed in order to use fastboot mode. So I installed them but no success.
One thing I notice that In fast boot mode my laptop giveys USB detection error and also tells me ADB interface failed.
Tried below mentioned things in order to get my phone detected in fastboot mode:
1) tried 3 different laptops(my Nexus 6p is detectable on all three laptops).
2) changed USB cable.
3) FDR using recovery.
EDIT: Problem solve by install Mediatek driver from windows update
Hello,
I've been trying for the past several hours to unlock the bootloader of my Moto Z2 Play (model:XT1710-09) by following different tuturials but fastboot don't seem to detect my phone, no matter what i do.
Nothing happens when i type “fastboot devices” in the command window.
I've noticed that my phone appear in the device manager in "other devices" as "Fastboot albus S" when it is in bootloader mode, which doesn't seems normal.
Edit: Some additional info: -i am on windows 10 pro
-ADB detect the phone whit no problem but Fastboot doesn't
-when connected with usb debugging enabled, windows detect it as "ADB interface" (which seems normal) and use "C:\\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\winusb.sys" as driver (which seems less normal to me, i may be wrong)
-i tried installing Motorola specific drivers but i only found MotorolaDeviceManager, which doesn't seem to do anything, and no way to download the drivers manually
Edit 2: I still don't know why i can't get it to work on windows but i just managed to do it using a linux bootable usb, my device is unlocked \o/
If anyone know why fastboot doesn't wok on my windows and how to get it to work, i'm still interested
Hi there,
strugggling to get the xa2 into fastboot mode so I can flash a new boot.img and root. I've enabled OEM unlocking and installed the USB drivers. the command 'adb reboot fastboot' doesn't work, just reboots the phone. adb over usb works fine. The official method to get into fastboot 'plug in USB whilst holding vol up/down' also doesnt allow me to get itno fastboot mode, phone just stays blank with a notification LED. I use 'fastboot devices' to see it if it connected. I've tried this on 2 PCs now to no avail
I'm thinking maybe the fastboot drivers are wrong?
Does anyone have any other suggestions or help?
Thanks

Hi
Install "5 seconds adb drivers"
Connect the turned off phone to PC via USB just pressing volume down button (no power) and keep pressing it until you see the LED turning green or blue.
Here u have! :highfive:

Hi thanks for getting back to me,
I assume you meant the '15 second installer', which I just did just install successfully. I am still unable to see the device with 'fastboot devices' command.
Other info: I have factory reset the phone, made sure oem unlock is checked, tried the same process on another computer. I can get adb mode to work fine, but the command 'adb reboot fastboot' just reboots the phone as usual

That is the correct behaviour.
Blue LED = Fastboot mode
Green LED = Flash mode (for reflashing stock firmware with XperiFirm in case EVERYTHING is broken)
Install these drivers:
https://adb.clockworkmod.com/
When in Fastboot mode, go to device manager, there is an Android device in there (may also be called MTP device).
In the device manager, install a new driver for that and use the ADB driver from C:\Program Files (x86)\ClockworkMod\Universal ADB Driver
Windows will tell you that it's the wrong driver. Install it anyway and Fastboot will recognize your XA2 now.

If it won't work, after that just go to devices and printers and delete Xperia XA2. It will work.
Else, after installing 15 seconds, inside device manager, update the driver of your phone (or mtp device), select local, then Android device, then fastboot. Disconnect the phone and reconnect as before (volume down)
Fastboot is VOL. UP (on this device)! (Not vol. down)
So basically turn off the device, hold Vol. UP and simply connect to USB, hold Vol. UP until LED is steady blue and you are set.
Note: VOLUME UP activates fastboot and VOLUME DOWN enables flashmode and/or recovery mode
Similar trouble here.
1. VOL UP + plug in USB: Blue led blinks once, then phone shows it's charging (turned off)
2. adb reboot bootloader: Phone just turns off

I had the same issue with my XA2.
The solution (at least for me) was: different USB cable and different USB-port. As it turns out, my cable was somehow worn out (though data transfer and charging was working quite well). Going into fastboot, the blue led lit very short time and then the phone restarted. Furthermore on my PC it somehow only worked on the one USB port and not the other (both USB 3.0).
--> Maybe trying the most obvious might help also some of you

Did solve this by connecting to different PC. No cable/port/hub change did help. Looks like there was some trouble with drivers (though the same PC fastboots Z3 Tablet Compact perfectly).

I'm also having the same issue with my Xperia XA2 Ultra. (boy that's a mouthful)
Phone model is H3223.
Host OS is Windows 10 Pro v. 2004.
Using latest Android SDK tools (i.e. ADB and Fastboot platform tools): platform-tools_r30.0.5-windows. Got it directly from Android site.
I think I had a previous driver for Android already installed or somehow Windows got it. ADB worked, Fastboot didn't. Read online about someone on this forum getting it to work by using XZ2 driver from Sony as they evidently don't have a published driver for this device. The person who posted this solution had reported problems with this driver recently. I tried it anyway.... ADB commands work and my phone shows up when listing devices. Reboot into fastboot mode and the only thing my phone does is show a blue light indicator... no splash screen or logo. To me this means it's starting fastboot but my driver isn't working with it to recognize it as any commands for fastboot return nothing or fail. It doesn't show up under fastboot devices command.
Does anyone have a clue as to what to do?

I have the exact same problem, have not managed to find a solution trying with 3(!) different laptops and 2 different cables. No idea what could go wrong. I checked the device and it says that unlocking is okay. Really frustrating.
Edit: I actually found a way! Once you manage to enter the fastboot mode (light is permanently blue) go to the device manager in windows, click on the unknown android device, and install custom drivers (either by selecting from the list or by picking the universal adb driers from a local folder). These custom drivers should be adb drivers. Once they are installed, fastboot should work.
I had the same problems with my device XA2 H3113 and Win10.
My solution: Try it with Ubuntu. Just grab an 8GB usbstick, install Ubuntu via usb-installer, boot ubuntu and open a terminal
sudo apt update
sudo apt install adb fastboot

Hey can you please provide me a link to the drivers? as I've been trying so many drivers and they don't work.

works for me
Hello,
I am trying to unlock my bootloader but I my computer (Windows 10) does not recognize fastboot.
When I connect to fastboot (holding volume up button + connecting my phone by USB when it's off, or using the adb reboot fastboot command), the computer does not recognize the phone. I then tried installing drivers (both from Google and Sony) by going into device manager but Windows just doesn't install the drivers.
I then saw this on Sony's website:
Fastboot driver - Sony Developer World
developer.sony.com
So I download the file and pasted it instead of the same file (android_winusb.inf) in the Google driver folder, and it somewhat worked, but Windows said something like unable to find drivers for ADB.
I also tried to install in Windows test mode but to no avail.
No matter what I tried, entering the command fastboot devices in fastboot mode does not give me any output (not even "waiting for device").
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!

Did you already disable driver signing? Pretty sure you have to do that with Win 10. I would disable driver signing, and then use " 15 second adb installer" from XDA. Always has worked for me...
