"fastboot devices" doesn't see phone in bootloader - Moto Z Play Questions & Answers

This is an unlocked Moto Z PLay, had Lineage OS installed on it.
Now I reboot in bootloader and I cannot access it through the fastboot command on my PC.
If I reboot in recovery (TWRP), I cann access it using adb. But I need fastboot to flash a new bootloader.
Txs!

My only suggestion is to try different cables and USB ports on your PC. Mine gets finicky sometimes...

Thanks Dan, I will try another cable. Still wondering if the cable was the issue why would "adb" work over the same cable ?
Cheers

HTC One Won't Start Up

So I was running a custom ROM for a while and decided to switch back to the stock ROM. After doing that, I flashed the stock recovery so that I could install the OTA update from version 4.28.502.2 to version 6.20.502.5. During installation, the phone got stuck in a bootloop, so I wiped the cache and tried to start it again. After that didn't work, I factory reset it (in the bootloader, and then in recovery after it didn't work), and it still doesn't work. ADB and fastboot doesn't detect my device even though I had USB debugging on before I tried to update it (I'm guessing that the factory reset disabled that?). I can access the bootloader and recovery, and my phone has an unlocked bootloader with S-On. I have the AT&T HTC One M8 if that helps. Can someone help me please?
Hi,
Can you go to boot loader and then connect your phone into your computer after that you flash the recovery like TWRP, wipe all the data and reflash your rom, you can find it on XDA. After that you have to find the correct recovery for your device (see the website of Mike1987), find the correct recovery for your device and then flash the stock recovery and it have to work. Waiting for your news.
Have a nice day

I'm saying that my computer doesn't recognize my phone, and that's why I can't flash a custom recovery like TWRP
Have you got the right drivers installed, have you tired another hub ? Is your battery fully charged ?

Yes, I have the right drivers installed. Yes, I have tried a different USB port. Yes, my battery is fully charged.
Try to uninstall the drivers and download the HTC drivers, fastboot and adb from Internet and try again. Do you have another PC? Because one time i have got the same problem than you and when i take another PC it's worked.

The drivers fail to install everytime, and I've tried on three different PCs
Your problem is not the phone cause it detected by the PC but the drivers failed to detect you HTC. Can you say if you boot your phone in the boot loader, the phone show you if is in boot loader connected by usb or not?

adb won't work on bootloader/fastboot mode. Only fastboot does.
When on fastboot, type command fastboot devices, do you get your device serial no. ?
On bootloader/fastboot, what is x the OS-x.xx.502.x now ?

Seems like your main issue was not properly using fastboot mode for fastboot, and realizing that adb doesn't work in bootloader mode? That, and having the proper firmware and RUU files.

I bricked my new Mi Mix 2 - not the computer does not recognize it

Hi,
I used the XiaoMiTool to flash my Mi Mix 2 from Chinese ROM to global. Around 90% of the flash process, the progress bar on the phone did not changed for 2 hours (!!!). I rebooted the phone and now it is with Mi logo as you can see from the img https://imgur.com/a/O9BZ8
I can enter fastboot and recovery mode, but now my computer does not recognize the device anymore (so I can re-flash it) - I get "unknown USB device" in the device manager. I installed Qualcomm driver, but still the same.
Please help!
please notice that I'm not too technical, therefore would appreciate detailed answers if possible.
Thanks ahead!
try the different computer and different USB TYPE-C cable to check if it helps. as long as you can enter fastboot /recovery mode.
I uninstalled the USB driver, reboot and now the computer recognizes the device, but I have a new problem:

Judging from the first picture, the bootloader isn't unlocked. "Erase boot failed" results most likely from a locked bootloader. Go unlock your bootloader, if you haven't done so already. The MiFlash stuff should work after that. Also, with an unlocked bootloader you might as well flash TWRP, boot into it and format data, and use its MTP capability to transfer a custom ROM onto the device and then flash it. Hope that this can help, good luck :good:

problem with fastboot twrp flashing

my device came with unlocked bootloader, so I tried to flash twrp but every time i type "fastboot flash recovery C:\adb\twrp-3.2.1-3-whyred.img" and hit enter, the device seems to disconnect from pc and there is "press any key to reboot" in fastboot on my phone.
How can I solve this issue?`
Phone gets detected by adb/fastboot tool so its not a driver problem. I tried different cables and usb ports aswell.
Firmware is latest global stable.

Well if you already had adb in your pc, rename the twrp file to recovery, you don't have to move the twrp from download folder, open download folder press shift and right click then select open cmd here, on cmd type "adb device" to see if your device connected, then after that type this "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" press enter than after that type "fastboot boot recovery.img" TEAMWIN logo should appear on your device and then you can unplug your device. Hope this useful
i am trying to flash twrp there is no folder called adb i have installed the 15 second adb and all so i have got this minimal adb flashboot and i tried with that and got this ---- FAILED (remote: Flashing is not allowed in Lock State). i have granted all usb and oem unlocking. please help with this
Phone shows unlocked during the boot?
I had the same Problem,after a Factory Reset works for me.
I am on Miglobe-Rom Miui10 8.6.28.
Minimal ADB is enough.
Or use this from Attachment.
Unpack with Win.zip and copy Twrp in this Folder.
Conect the Phone with your Pc ,boot into Bootloader and click "cmd-here.exe"
Use this Command
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-3-whyred.img
@Nazukii - Quick question - any chance you could try running GameBench on your device, and see if our background service dies when the device is disconnected from the PC? I don't have a Note 5 Pro to test, and I've got some user complaints. Any assistance would be awesome!

My phone stuck in MI recovery idk how.
I cant install MIUI via fastboot. Im stuck ..
Can anyone please help me here not sure how to proceed further.
If you have made sure that you have all the drivers installed and still have not solved, you need to use an Intel-based PC / notebook and use a usb 2.0.

Stuck in TWRP and fastboot not working

Hello. I decided today to clean install the Pixel Experience 10 rom. I previously had a Pixel Experience 9.0 Pie. I did the following:
1. Booted into TWRP and selected Format Data
2. Everything is deleted, so it's time to flash a new rom. The guide says to go Advanced/ADB sideload and enter a command.
3. Command is not working. My phone is connected to the computer but it's not recognized. I can't even manually transfer it to the phone so i can install it via TWRP.
So i enter fastboot. Phone is recognized. When i type fastboot devices i get this:
Code:
C:\adb>fastboot devices
42abad9b fastboot
If i try to flash again a TWRP, my phone disconnects and it asks to reboot the phone by pressing a volume button. And i am stuck here. Nothing i can do. Any suggestions? I haven't done anything unusual. I am truly desperate. Any help will be appreciated.

Hi !
Did you bypass ARB with dummy.img before you flashed TWRP?
Do you use win 10, if you are change usb or use usb hub. If that doesn't help use win 7.
follow the link for details

I already had TWRP from long ago. And i didn't even try to flash a new ROM. I just formatted Data. I have the TWRP version 3.3.1-0. But as i said, PC does not recognize phone in TWRP and i can't adb sideload any ROM because of it.

Go back to previous version of TWRP(latest is buggy) or use OrangeFox recovery.
But still if you lose custom recovery you need again start over and bypass ARB.
And check if your bootloader is still unlock.

I can't go to a previous version of TWRP. I can't flash any recovery via fastboot because of the problem i said at the first post. I somehow managed to boot into some previous versions of TWRP via a tool called TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE, but nothing changed. I had the same exact problems.
How will i check in my current status if bootloader is still unlocked?

Use this and post the result...
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
So you managed to get TWRP via TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE, ... when you are in TWRP flash TWRP again via TWRP or better flash OrangeFox Recovery(use SD CARD or adb push - for more info google it for adb commands), than reboot it directly into recovery again by TWRP option reboot to recovery... and now you can flash your ROM.
So make it simple
1st time you'll boot in TWRP by TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE,
than you'll flash recovery via TWRP and make it permanent,
Than you'll directly reboot to recovery via TWRP,
now you can wipe and flash your ROM.
Happy ending :highfive:
The problem was that i couldn't use ADB sideload because the phone wasn't recognized by the computer. And i fixed it in a very weird way, by connecting the phone to the PC monitor's USB hub and that way the phone was discovered by the computer. So i fastbootted the latest TWRP and then easily transferred the ROM i wanted to flash via TWRP. It's crazy that i spent all day just to connect the phone to a USB hub so it could work...

Usually this is a driver issue.
Just download your device driver or update it from device manager on your PC. (Choose update from internet)
Also you need unlocked bootloader to execute this command, use Mi unlock to unlock your Xiaomi device.

Did you really think I'm talking about your PC's drivers?
Search on google for your phone's drivers.
If you're new to flashing then please don't. Only do it if you know what you're doing.
