Once I reboot to bootloader and connect to PC, the command "fastboot devices" does not recognize the device, so when I try to unlock it. it says "waiting for device". I've enabled both OEM unlocking and USB debugging.
The phone shows "fastboot_unlock_verify ok"
"The device is in fastboot mode which is only for debug Android devices. if you want to exit fastboot mode, please long press volume up nad power buttons simultaneously. "
EDIT: Solved it by using the correct platform-tools
I have the same problem. I actually thought that I installed the right sdk platform tools. Can you upload the platform tools that work for you?
Thank you

I used the ones from here - https://www.getdroidtips.com/download-adb/#How-to-Install-Android-SDK-and-Platform-Tools
Solved.
I downloaded the platform tools 30.0.5 and reinstall it. Then i reinstall the adb bootloader driver right at the moment when the Nord2 is in the fastboot mode.
cheers
I have no developer options for reboot, bootloader, recovery.
platform tools 30.0.5, where?
Try after reboot into bootloader "fastboot devices". Is the Nord 2 recognized?
For me the correct command was "fastboot flashing unlock".

I'm having the same issue. I can't get my Nord 2 show up with "fastboot devices". Sent my phone into the bootloader with "adb reboot bootloader" no problem.
I have used the 30.0.5 platform tools as well as the 31.0.3. Installed Oneplus USB drivers and also tried the universal r13 android drivers (Reinstalled the bootloader drivers while in bootloader mode). Also tried Snoop05s 1.43 adb installer. All to no avail. Just can't get my device to show up in the bootloader.
In Phone settings bootloader is open and USB debugging is on.
Edit: I made it work. Used regular CMD and not powershell and it showed up.

Hello everyone, I'm using Redmi Note 3 and I have tried rooting it several times.
I have unlocked the bootloader. I have also installed the adb drivers.
When I connect phone in fastboot mode and write 'fastboot devices' in cmd it doesn't return anything. But when I connect when its on, adb devices returns the device code.
Please help.
Same, happens to mine too. Used to work with a previous install of windows, but now, nope.
Had this issue too.
Try going to Device Manager and check to see if Kedacom USB Device shows up. Under which, Android Bootloader Interface should be present. Install minimalist ADB and fastboot and right click Android Bootloader Interface. Click Update Driver Software, browse computer, and then click the option to list driver files already present on your drive. It should pull up a fastboot driver that's an older version than the one you currently have. Install that and fastboot will work again.
Doesn't work
Can you please link the files for download when we're updating the driver software.
So my device is recognized when it's turned on but then I go to command prompt and click ADB reboot bootloader (enter). It just says waiting for device. If it's on and I click ADB devices in the command prompt it tells me the serial number and then says device. On the computer management it is recognized as a device it says the name Xperia XA Ultra. I tried to update the Google driver into ADB but that was a failed attempt. I couldn't quite understand what I was supposed to do there or really even follow the instructions because it kept telling me that I was unable to update drivers after I followed the instructions they gave me. I just kept getting an error message. So I'm wondering how do I solve this problem? I really would like to unlock my bootloader and I'm not even sure if it's going into fastboot. I got the notification after turning off the phone hold Volume Plus and plug it in it said of my computer that it was installing the fastboot drivers. I'm assuming it was in fastboot at that time even though I didn't get a blue light it just turned blue for a minute and then it was Green. It said it was installing fastboot drivers so I'm assuming it was in fastboot mode. This is a really tricky process I guess.
What windows do you have?
Also I would recommend you to Google how install fastboot on your Windows type.

I have windows 10
Windows 10. Why would I need to install fastboot on Windows? Fastboot is on my Android device. I use ADB. Android debugging bridge is the bridge that goes between your operating system and fastboot the bootloader and Android and all of that in order to be able to communicate with the phone. Why would I need to install Fastboot on my windows? You sound like a customer service representative. I can't even talk to them anymore because they tried to get me to act like Chris Farley.
If you don't install fastboot on your computer you can't unlock bootloader you can't install custom recovery or root the phone!

Hello,
Here is the link to the ADB Installer that contains all the files you need (ADB, Fastboot and Drivers). Download and following the screen information to install the program.

Hi there
please note that Windows 10 x64 blocks the installation of unsigned drivers. To be able to install them anyway you have to enter the Windows Test Mode. To do this you just have to run "bcdedit /set testsigning on" in an administrative command line and restart your computer afterwards. You'll see "Test Mode" at the bottom right corner of your desktop. To leave the testmode use "bcdedit /set testsigning off" and restart again.
Done all of this and it doesn't work...
You have to use drivers from Sony for Flashmode and use drivers included in Flashtool (C:\flashtool\drivers) for fastboot and ADB. No problem for me with Windows 10 64bits and don't need to use Test mode.
Hi everyone.
I apologize if this was already asked.
I own a Symphony H50. I am trying to install windows via change my software but it shows device too slow or protected by manufacturer.
So googled it and found that i need to unlock my boot loader.
So I installed adb,fastboot,drivers including bootloader interface driver. And booted into fastboot mode. And typed "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" and the command prompt shows 3 dots (...) And the cursor keeps flashing. And no confirmation message shows up on my phone.
It only shows "FASTBOOT mode".
Another thing i found out while installing adb drivers that it listed my phone manufacturer as HTC.
So is the problem with my phone?
And how do i fix it?
It may be a problem with driver, uninstall the previous one and install Koush universal adb driver from kaushikdatta.com
Use the link given below for a thorough tutorial to replace drivers.

Thanks for reply,
I'll try the drivers.
Though my adb drivers are working fine. My issue is with fastboot.
When i boot into fastboot mode it shows "FASTBOOT mode" on a black screen.
But i would try with the
That black screen with fastboot mode written at the bottom comes up on every phone when you boot into bootloader.
Please read the whole guide before proceeding.
You may skip the driver and adb installation part if u have already taken the measures I stated before.
Try this,
Download adb and Koush Universal adb driver and install them on ur pc, always install the driver first and don't install the drivers adb setup asks u to install.
Run command prompt as administrator.
Open the folder in c drive where adb is installed, u can use file explorer for this.
Press Shift+right click and select open command window here.
Enable USB debugging on your phone and connect it to the pc by a USB cord.
Enter command "adb devices" without quotation marks.
If it shows some device connected, only then proceed further.
Enter command " adb reboot bootloader"
Enter command " fastboot devices", if it shows some device to be connected, only then proceed further.
Enter command " fastboot oem unlock".
Ur phone may then ask for final confirmation on the phone screen, select yes.
When procedure completes, type "fastboot reboot" and ur phone will reboot.
U can now use Kingoroot or any other tool for rooting.
I am on an older macbook pro running High Sierra. the phone I'm using is a Blu G5 running android 9. I have the developer options unlocked and oem unlocked and usb debugging checked. When i open my terminal i type cd and drag and drop the platform tools folder into the terminal window changing the directory to the folder containing the adb and fastboot files. I can use adb commands such as adb devices and get the serial number and it says devices. So far so good. Then i reboot the phone into the bootloader manually or using command adb reboot bootloader and the phone goes into fastboot mode. I know because it says it on top of the screen in white letters. Then i run into the problem fastboot commands don't work. If I type in fastboot devices nothing but a new command line shows up. When i type in any other command like fastboot device or fastboot oem unlock it says "waiting for any devices." I wait and wait but nothing happens. I have looked on the internet for a solution but all i find is that the driver may not deinstalled properly. I have tried manually installing fastboot driver and used sdk manager to install the fastboot driver and I have tried it using the terminal in android studio but no matter what when i try useing fastboot commands i get the "waiting for any device" message. Does any have a solution or could anyone recommend and forum for android development on MacOSX?
@DimDreams
Seems the Fastboot driver is invalid.

I have literally tried like 10 different sdk tool downloads just platform tool download basically every thing i can find. By chance would you or anyone out there have a working driver for MacOSX 10.13.6? or link a guide that can help me figure this out. I have made a little progress with a forum on xda about fastboot on macs but i still just keep getting the waiting for any device message.
@DimDreams
May also be that the Fastboot Android mode is not available on the phone in question.
I've had similar issues before and noticed that fastboot mode works better via USB 2.0 than USB 3.0. Maybe check which port you're using and switch. ADB seems to work well either way, however. Hope that helped.
I just had this problem as well and I found this, what worked for me is first boot your phone into bootloader mode with
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
. While in the bootloader fastboot worked for me. Hope this helps someone!
Hey all, I just got a G90 Pro that I want to put a ROM on, but something is up with the fastboot. I have the drivers installed according to what I found online, but when I go to fastboot there is no response from the cmd inputs. Nothing even shows up when I check fastboot devices. Has anyone had luck with these phones? I can't even unlock the bootloader!

I have done this, but did it again just to be sure, and device manager recognizes the G90 Pro under USB devices, and ADB finds it, but when I do the 'adb reboot bootloader' the fastboot mode text is on the bottom, yet fastboot commands don't do anything, not even 'fastboot devices'.
Edit: Fastboot devices is recognized in fastbootd, but not regular fastboot, yet the other commands don't work.
In your case fastboot is located in Android's user-space, hence you run this command sequence
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot <YOUR-COMMAND-HERE>
fastboot reboot

Fastboot reboot fastboot just brings up the fastboot command list. Assuming it's expecting me to try reboot bootloader.
That's really weird because your phone is running Android 10.
My info in settings definitely confirms that. Nothing seems to be working as expected though.

Is there any other possible solution? I still can't get fastboot commands to work after rebooting to fastboot mode from fastbootd.
