Huawei Nexus 6P :: ADB Doesn't See The Phone In Fastboot Mode
Oct 31, 2015
I'm trying to flash a TWRP, but for some reason the phone doesn't show up any more in adb when in fastboot mode (at the bottom of the phone screen it tells me to connect a USB cable). It was showing fine until yesterday. I have tried several different USB ports. The cable is definitely working (in fact plugging and unplugging it causes Windows to notice and make a sound, and also it works fine in ADB when the phone is booted up.
The only thing that I can think that happened since I had last connected to it in fastboot mode (to unlock the bootloader) is that I connected my PC to a couple other phones (Galaxy S3 and Nexus 5) using them in MTP mode. I have reinstalled Google and universal drivers several times, deleted the device from device manager, etc
I have installed and reinstalled the Android SDK multiple times with no luck. ADB recognizes the phone just fine but when I boot into fastboot, and plug the phone in, nothing happens. I run the command fastboot devices and nothing. And on my phone it still says to please connect to USB cable. However, it already is connected. I followed the guide over in the general section and I'm stuck on testing the fastboot connection. I have followed everything that it stated to do and download.
I've run into a rather odd issue with fastboot. It seems that any command entered comes back with the following:ERROR: Couldn't create a device interface iterator: (e00002bd)
There is no issue with adb, and I have tried re-installing both platform-tools and the entire SDK, but no luck. I don't run into this problem in Windows either,On further analysis, it looks like it has something to do with OSX. I've disable SIP and gatekeeper, and the issue still persists, so it looks like I'll just have to use windows for fastboot!
Recently, I was trying to replace old battery in my Nexus and something went wrong. The battery wasn't replaced but the phone didn't boot up. When unplugged, the phone didn't react at all (and I know that battery % was enough). When I plugged it in, the battery indicator showed up, disappeared after a second and it was happening in a constant loop (this appearing and disappearing). I tried to boot up the phone but only Google showed up and phone turned off and the battery indicator was again reappearing.
I managed to access fastboot but couldn't do anything more (when trying to enter recovery - same thing as with booting up). Flashed stock 6.0.1 and nothing changed. The phone was sent to LG but they said the warranty won't cover that and offered to replace motherboard for price around $230 which for me is a bit too high as for this quite old phone. They've sent me also this photo (URL...). Now I'm waiting for them to return the phone and maybe I'll try with another LG service.
Maybe symptoms are suggesting something and it can be easily fixed. Right now I can't do anything because the phone isn't back yet but when it's back before giving it to another service?
Was in the process of restoring the phone to factory settings (was rooted), and something went wrong and now it won't even let me boot to recovery. The phone is only softbricked, however, because it I hold power+volume down x2 it allows me to enter the factory hard reset menu.
Unfortunately, the menu does nothing, because after choosing either option it goes straight to the "[#####] Fastboot mode started" message, each time with a different number next to it (in the brackets). I've googled for days, tried running adb from my computer but the computer doesn't see the phone, even with the latest drivers. LGFlashTool doesn't work because I can't get into recovery.
Pic (obvously) is the screen it always goes to. Low quality because of the iphone camera. I really love my G3 and don't want to have to go back to that
I am writing this as a last resort; consider it an act of desperation! For the last 4 hours or so I have been trying to flash my HTC Magic (Rogers). I had issues with the ADB finding my phone on Windows XP SP3, Windows 7 AND XP SP2. After using PDaNet it finally listed it in the cmd on the SP2 pc.Now: the next step was to turn the phone off (did that), then turn it back on in fastboot mode (no problem) and then send the recovery.img prompt. As soon as I did this? Device not found! So I go back and type in "adb devices" to see if it's still listed there and it isn't!
I don't understand?!! Why is this not working? I'm tearing my hair out over here after spending so much bloody time on this I just wish it would work.
got a problem with my speaker phone not working. When I turn it on, it doesn't get any louder. Phone is rooted , did a restart and no fix. My second question is , I bought this phone at a carrier will google warranty my phone ?
I'm running the latest Cyanogenmod 13 nightly on my Nexus 6P, without gapps. Unfortunately, I do not have an HDR option in the camera (tried AOSP and Google camera).
I already flashed the vendor.img from Google. What I could do? I do not want to install gapps.
Just as the title says, I tried messing with the dpi, went from 400 to 480, all of them cause chrome to go into tablet mode with the tiny tabs/buttons at the top of the screen. I'm using the PureNexus rom.
Gmail app doesn't allow me to click some embedded links and some links are just plain text and not highlighted/underlined in blue making them clickable.
So I have an alarm set every morning for work. I also use the do not disturb quick launch. Well for whatever reason every time I use do not disturb it turns off the alarm even though I have it set for alarms only mode.
How come if I am in "picture mode" of the camera and then switch to "video" it zooms in. What would normally be in the frame for a picture is cropped so much for video.....
It turns off sRBG every time it completely reboots, and now I have noticed it doing it after just being left idle overnight (just one time, last night).
My phone doesn't ring some tines! It just vibrates. I had set it to custom Ringtone and now set it back to a default Ringtone.. And it still doesn't ring.
I don't like the eye popping colors of amoled screen on my 6P. sRGB enabled in developer options makes it look better in my eyes as a amatuer pornographer. However, it doesn't stick and needs to be re-enable on each boot.
Is there a way, play store app or xposed module to set the silent mode? We've only vibration mode but I'd like to set phone silent without tones, vibration and with all notifications enabled.
I've been looking for an app or xposed module but no luck. I've been out the Android game for awhile with the iPhone 6 but now I'm back. On the iPhone there is a tweak to allow you to have a guest mode button on the lock screen.
I find it to be more convenient when someone picks up my phone. They can enter guest mode without the back and forth handling.
My camera just shows a black viewfinder on all custom roms. I tried Chroma, Cataclysm - both have the same issue. 3rd party cameras don't work either..
Using stock keyboard i found that my typing was constantly getting words grouped together. Then I noticed that when I hit the space bar I always get the hepatic feedback but the cursor doesn't always move when spacebar is pressed. Sometimes I have to hit it 3-4 times.
why is it the Emoji show on the stock keyboard except for when you use inside Twitter? It shows on every other app when messaging just not Twitter is this normal that you can't access Emoji on stock keyboard that is on the nexus 6p?
I noticed since I got my 6P lightflow doesn't override Google apps such as Google messenger and Gmail. Gmail turns yellow led and messenger just white.
Since Windows 10 is rolling out today I would like to know if adb and fastboot drivers are up to date for it ? Can I install them with universal naked drivers?
Playing around with the slowmo video and I noticed that during playback, the slow motion doesn't start until like 3-4 seconds into the video. Is this normal?
I tried to update my Nexus 5 to Marshmallow using ADB/Fastboot and Googles images. I have followed a number of different (yet the same) approaches to flash the unit and NOTHING works. I tried to go back to 5.1.1 and can not restore the unit. It has not bricked (yet) and not sure what to try next. I have read options that call for reformatting parts of the operating systems but fearful this will brick the unit. I have flashed the bootloader, phone, recovery, userdata, sys, etc., and nothing works. I know others have had trouble with Nexus 5 based on what I have read however to date not be able to restore the device.
My N5 has a hardware fault where the phone thinks the power button is permanently pressed, so as soon as you try and boot it, it turns off again.
I am able to get to fastboot, by holding down the volume down button and power. But from there, I cannot boot to recovery or normal system boot.
I have been unable to fix this, and I really want to get some of my app data off. Is there a way of extracting a backup somehow from fastboot? I'm guessing no, as you can't access via adb through fastboot?
