I am not familiar with Linux but on Windows waiting for device comes up when the driver for that phone is installed. May be you can look into it for a solution.
Install the drivers and then give it a try.

You need to install adb fastboot these are the instructions you need to type in the terminal you just opened. Type one line at a time and press enter after each. Allow Ubuntu to do it's stuff.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
after you reboot to the bootloader you use fastboot commands ,not adb

I have adb. I'm trying to say, when I'm in recovery mode, my phone is no longer found on my computer. Not just adb, the whole computer

Sorry, I'm messing up what I'm trying to say. I have adb and fastboot installed, running on ubuntu 16.04. I plug my phone in, open Terminal, and run adb devies. My device pops up, it's there. So I run adb reboot bootloader, my phone goes on the white screen with the android fellow, and all is good. Now, I i try adb devices again, nothing. I put in lsusb (lists all usb devices connected to computer), and nothing. So, naturally, when i try fastboot oem unlock and my code, I'm stuck on <waiting for device>

adb does not work in the bootloader
After reboot bootloader it's fastboot devices
If you get no response try a different usb port
Or different usb cord

[Q] Sprint optik can't switch to USB Debugging mode after flashing kernel

Hello,everyone.I've got a Sprint optik(zte v55) 7" pad coming with HC 3.2.
After I flash a modified kernel, Its usb debugging mode can't work properly and my pc can't recgonize it.
Before I flash the kernel, when I switched to usb debugging mode and connect to my pc(runing win7), v55 will display a icon in taskbar showing it's connected with pc, my pc will show a new driver that showing the dirs and files in v55's internal storage, and when I run command "adb devices", it will show v55 is connected.
now, all the above is not happening anymore.
The thing is : I use 'adb reboot bootloader' and 'fastboot boot CWMrecovery.img' to flash the kernel in, which means the adb.exe and fastboot.exe can work before I flahsed the kernel, and now they can't work.So I think maybe it's the kernel cause v55's usb can't work ?
Forgot to metion: now, when boot into android system or recovery mode, I can't use 'adb devices' to discover the device;when I boot in ftm mode(which I don't know what it is),sometimes 'adb devices' print 'xxxxx offline' , sometimes print 'xxxx recovery'.
when print 'xxx recovery', I use 'adb reboot bootloader' , v55 enter black screen with back light which seems in bootloader mode, but 'fastboot devices' and 'fastboot boot CWMrecovery.img' are not working.Very strange.

Can anybody know what should I do now ? My intention is to root and flash CM10 to v55,and can be recongize by my pc again.
The kernel I flashed into is in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473555,kernel #60 for v55.

Hi, here are some things to keep in mind when using adb.
Be sure of the command you are issuing
Insure you are in fact cd'd to wherever on your pc the adb binary is located
Insure your jdk is included in your path on your pc
To make things easier you can always also add the tools and platform-tools folder of the android sdk to your path
Lets make sure you are properly set up first before you start flashing things randomly.
For more info, you should check Android's page on ADB if you would like. http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html
I'm not sure if any of this is actually directly related to your issue, but it is nice to start with the basics.

Thank you for reply.
The adb command I use is install by v55's driver.Everytime I use adb, I always go into the driver's dir (C:\Program Files\ZTE Tablet V55 USB Driver) which adb.exe is in.
And this dir is in my path.
The thing is : I use 'adb reboot bootloader' and 'fastboot boot CWMrecovery.img' to flash the kernel in, which means the adb.exe and fastboot.exe can work before I flahsed the kernel, and now they can't work.So I think maybe it's the kernel cause v55's usb can't work ?

Ooook now we're getting somewhere, I think
Make sure when you send your fastboot flash command you send it like so:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Replace 'recovery.img' with the actual name of the img, whatever it is.
Also if you are getting the device offline error try killing server:
Code:
adb kill-server
and then restart it
Code:
adb start-server
See if that helps.

I will try these command when I get home, thank u!:good:
"adb kill-server" and "adb start-server" works fine.They turn v55's "adb devices" from "offline" to "recovery".
And I run command "adb reboot-bootloader", it seems that v55 is in bootload mode.
But after that,I run command "fastboot flash recovery CWMrecovery.img",it returns '<waiting for device>' and stuck there.
Before I flash the kernel #60, I can run "fastboot boot CWMrecovery.img" to boot to cwm,so I think it's not likely be the driver's problem,am I right?

Sorry to take so long to reply. I think it is not a driver issue. Do you know if debugging/adb is even enabled in the ramdisk? This generally would have to be done by the dev who created the kernel. Speaking of that, have you tried to contact that dev for further support? For sure they would know more than me since I don't own the device myself. I just know enough to be slightly dangerous, lol

It's very nice of you to keep help me here ,thanks again:good:!
After keep trying in past two days, I found that in ftm mode adb is enabled, and 'adb reboot bootloader' truly made the device into bootloader mode.
On my win7 pc, It can't be recognized.I switch to my old xp pc,and install the driver come from other zte user,and then...fastboot works.
Now I have the v55 running CM10,Awesome!Thanks to all contributors.
Still, my win7 pc and xp pc can't recognize my v55 through usb.But it's not big deal now.I can use tf and wifi and other ways to transfer file to v55.

Oh wow, that is quite the ordeal, but atleast its something huh, lol
I wonder if you could run adb and fastboot commands in xp mode on your win7 pc?
I know there is a way to run programs in XP mode, its just been awhile since I've done it.
And its no problem to keep trying to help, even if I don't know the device and all that. Maybe I can learn to while we are at it, and maybe make a new friend along the way

The device never gets recognized so easily on "adb" whereas in fastboot u would not have any issues.....
since u r going to flash the kernel try "fastboot devices" u ll be able to see ur device
The adb issue will be solved by restarting the PC or by trying to re-install the HTC drivers

I tried fastboot devices and enter but it's just blank nothing
I tried restart PC didn't help, I tried to restart the phone too, and reinstalling drivers nothing.
Even WinDroid HTC One X+ Toolkit won't recognized him when he is in fastboot, but when he is in windows he said Online on status. I really have no idea where did I go wrong I usually always get him into fastboot flash normal.

I always had the device shown as BLANK on "adb" when using windows
whereas on fastboot I never had that issue.....
can u try this
In windows install this MInimal ADB and Fastboot give a try on"fastboot devices" using this
if not working re install the drivers and try the MInimal ADB and Fastboot again
I am suggesting this because it had worked flawlessly for me with proper drivers and MInimal ADB and Fastboot.......
I never had to install drivers I just installed some adb universal drivers from WinDroid HTC One X+ Toolkit 3.0 it always worked without installing any other drivers, but all of the sudden it's not. I tried now using that MInimal ADB still blank, I will try now to reinstall or uninstall completely that adb universal drivers, and try again.

Installation won't start on this one that you gave me. I run it but nothing happends.
P.S
I download AdbDriverInstaller he said that I already have installed adb drivers, don't know how when I uninstall it all.
EDIT:
I manage to get device ID on adb devices in windows, but when I enter bootloader in fastboot he can't recognized him on command "fastboot devices" he said "device not found", and I can't flash kernel becouse he needs to be in fastboot.

I did that too now, and in windows I get adb devices he show me number of my device, my friend told me now that I can flash kernel when I am in OS that I don't have to be in fastboot he will enter fastboot on his own, and I try that too, and as I told he manage to find device via adb, but when he enter bootloader in fastboot he is waiting for device in kernel cmd windows he can't find him.
Make sure your using a USB port that connects directly to your mobo. adb/fastboot is dodgy with USB hubs. Try a port at the back of your PC.

[Q] Stuck in bootloader/recovery

Hello all, been scouring the web with no avail, so I must come here for your help.
I used some of the guides on this forum in order to root, install CWR, and Cyanogenmod a few months back, but I'm back again today after an OTA update got me stuck in CWR/bootloader.
I can use both of these, and both of these only. I cannot boot into the ROM.
When looking, I've realized the only way to fix this would be to do a full reset and install the ROM again. I've wiped the device with CWR, but I'm not able to flash another ROM onto the device. (I'm looking to flash the GPE ROM this time).
My computer is detecting that something is connected, but even with the ADB drivers and everything, ADB still isn't detecting the device. Any pointers?
Also when looking around, I also noticed that many guides tell me I need to turn S-ON off, and I've tried doing that with rumrunner, but that didn't work since ADB wasn't either.
TLDR; I'm stuck in bootloader/recovery, am not able to flash/sideload due to my PC not detecting the device.
Anyway, THANKS LOADS IN ADVANCE. I've spent all afternoon searching today, and this is my last resort.

You need to install HTC sync to ensure the proper drivers are installed.
Download HTC sync manager
Install it,
Remove HTC sync manager but leave drivers
place HTC one on boot loader then fastboot option, connect device to computer wait until android 1.0 installs
Disconnect device and boot to recovery, reconnect device and let drivers install.
Run from computer CMD and get to the place where adb and fastboot exes are located.
Type command adb devices
the if successful prompt to do a adb sideload

Alright, I installed and uninstalled HTC sync manager, only uninstalled from PC's native uninstallation process, and not sure if the drivers got uninstalled- didn't ask me about it.
After that, I recall a popup telling me it's installing Android 1.0, which only was active for a moment. I disconnected and booted to recovery, reconnected to computer, and 'adb devices' returned no devices.
Thanks again. Today was the first day at school without my phone this year, and it was dreadful. I'm a total addict.
Do you have a linux distro available which you can try? Preferably Ubuntu. Everytime Windows screwed up, I was able to do adb/fastboot perfectly with Linux.
Install:
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
Define rules:
sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51.android.rules
Write this in that file: SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="283b", MODE="0660", OWNER="Ubuntu"
Save and exit, then do sudo adb / fastboot devices.

adb device not found

In Windows I cannot find it at all, running adb devices gives me an error.
In ubuntu it shows up as ??????????? but i have no permissions for some reason, so I cannot do the steps to Bump
Anyone have a way to fix this so I can Bump and finally get on to flashing the Modem, then custom roms finally!
You can also install it from Terminal Emulator, right on the phone, rather than adb. In TE, skip the "adb shell" line, input the 2nd - 4th lines, starting from "su".

You can also use Flashify to flash the bump'd TWRP recovery - that's what I did, worked beautifully. You can find Flashify in the Play Store.
For Linux, you must run sudo adb devices... Then the rsa key will pop up on the phones screen, then your good to go. You must run the sudo command first, or you'll need to run the adb kill-server command, then start again with elevated permissions. If your on 11c, you must be in ptp mode, for 10b ethernet mode.
For Windows, well who cares, use Linux...

Thank you all. Those adb kill commands were it. Everything worked out fine.. but now when i do the rest of the steps i boot into system recovery (not twrp) but like the phone system recovery, and it seems like thats not what i should be booting into.

Error when booting device into fastboot mode. "error: device not found"

Sup. I'm a new member of XDA and would like to be a part of the community. I've heard great things.
I'm trying to install ADB and fastboot on my computer running the latest version of Ubuntu. Here's what I have done:
1. Enabled Developer options
2. Verified that USB debugging and OEM unlocking are on
3. Ran the command:

However, unfortunately I receive this response:

Unfortunately it does not recognize my device. I tried Googling it and looking on the CM Wiki, but I wasn't able to figure out why my device isn't recognized by my computer. Any ideas?
Thanks :]
after the two commands try apt get update command. and reboot the system.
Now it may work.
try it in Windows which is way easier than the linux.
"adb devices" command will list the working device and state.

I tried typing in "apt get update" but it didn't recognize the command. Tried adb devices but it didn't input any results. I will move over to Windows to see if I have better luck.
