Cannot connect to fastboot through ADB - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. I've had my HTC one for a while now and it had TWRP flashed on it. About a week ago I flashed the android revolution rom, worked well but my camera went really weird if I looked back at some recordings. So I wanted to revert back to stock everything. I flashed a stock recovery for the M7, after that I had the problem of not being able to connect my device to the computer when I fastboot mode. Simply wouldn't pick it up when I typed ADB devices in cmd. My device wouldn't show up after installing stock recovery. And it doesn't want to restore any roms either in stock recovery mode. I can't even access my folders in that mode to flash any roms. I click either apply from sd card, apply from phone storage. Says for a split second check CID failed or something and reboots itself.
I cannot flash TWRP back cause my computer since it can't pick it up. I've tried everything. Changing USB ports, uninstalling my drives for htc. Changing computers, unlocking, relocking bootloader. No result. I'm screwed cause I'm stuck on this android revolution rom, rooted. Just wanna flash custom recovery. I can connect it to my computer, access folders and add things to it but soon as I turn it off and go into fastboot mode it says fastboot usb and can hear the noise when its connected but it doesn't show up in adb devices and when I flash the TWRP it starts send then comes up with FAILED. Help please, would be appreciated!

Adb only works if you'te booted to OS or custom recovery. Command you're looking for in bootloader menu is "fastboot devices"

Fala Puno. Ja sam raditi sada. I'm of Croatian decent in Australia. I'll try this later when I return home

Fixed it! I'm an idiot, I didn't realise I was flashing the m8 twrp instead of m7. That's why it failed. Lol. Anyway thanks

[Q] How do I get my phone back to stock rom?

Hello,
I just got the HTC One today, and installed CyanogenMod. There were problems with some key-features, so I decided to just stick with the stock rom. Unfortunetely, when I tried to re-install the stock rom, everything ****ed up, to say at least. So with the help of TWRP I wiped the SD-card, but I think something went wrong in the process, because the phone kept restarting only making it to the logo of TWRP. (Then, I tried to do an adb sideload, but I was told that no devices was found. Fastboot sees my HTC One, but ADB doesn't. Also, I am not able to transfer anything to the SD-card, as it is not showing up when I connect my phone to the computer. Now I am just stuck at the bootloader, with access to TWRP. The bootloader says TAMPERED and UNLOCKED.
I have been using the AIO-kit so do most of the unlocking.
How do I get my phone back to stock rom?
Or, how do I make ADB reconize my device?

Help i soft bricked my phone

I started to root my phone this morning. I did the HTVDev unlock, flashed twrp, then tried to flash viperboy's disable RW system protect. This caused my phone to just hang at the HTC screen. I let my phone die and was able to get into my bootloader and fastboot. I tried to push the rom via adb but I kept getting the error of no device connected. Then i tried to flash the stock boot.img though fastboot. This brought me back to the HTC screen but now when I plug it in to my computer it shows up for everything and it installs drivers but the HTC MTP Device fails. Now I cant send commands to reboot through fastboot or adb. Im currently waiting for it to die again to get back to twrp or the bootloader. Any advice on how to proceed?
Thanks,

Likely no need to let it die -- a hard reset (hold the power and vol down for a very long time) should bring you back to the bootloader (hopefully). It'll seem like a good long while -- keep pressing.
From there, select 'fastboot' and press the power button, then plug in to your computer (USB). That'll show USB on the fastboot line.
Then, on your computer, open a command window (presuming you're using Windows) in the SDK platform-tools directory and type:
fastboot devices
If that gives back your device ID, you're at least at a reasonable fastboot. I'd flash a good recovery (I use PhilZ, and while it might be foreign to you (CWM style), it lets you load a ROM via OTG cable over USB if you have such a cable -- if not, hopefully sideload works for you in TWRP if you stick with that) -- just to be sure you have a good recovery.
Then, reboot into recovery.
Your kernel (boot.img) apparently is garbage, so hopefully you can either put a ROM on USB and flash from that (OTG) or adb sideload it. All the ROMs normally have a good kernel so would flash your boot.img properly during install. Were me me, I'd flash O.M.J's stock rooted ROM just so you at least get back to some place of sanity).
If that all fails, you might have to RUU and start over.
Let us know and we'll help out.

ok. can you use adb push in fastboot? also i noticed that my captive buttons blink when i tried to turn off my phone. don't know if that means anything.
OMG it worked! Thank you so much. I uber appreciate it. Today I learned a ton about how android works and how to use adb and fastboot. While the processed about gave me a heart attack i did learn a lot. I can not believe how great of a resource xda is. The knowledge of everyone on here is incredible. I cant thank you enough.
Thanks all,

[Q] PC won't find this messed up phone

Okay, so this is the status quo of my friends phone: HTC One M7 UL, S-On, HBOOT-1.55, TAMPERED, UNLOCKED
There is no OS instelled, I can only boot into recovery (while booting from the bootloader it starts Team Win Recovery Project v2.6.0.1, when I boot from the phone being off it opens ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.4.6) or bootloader. The internal storage is wiped. My PC is not able to install the device driver software, so I cannot put any files on the phone via USB cable. Also it appears to not be rooted, as the recoveries ask me if I want to install SuperSU. But if I accept this, nothing changes and the next time I get the same question.
All in all almost erverything on this phone is deleted and I have no idea how to put a ROM back on it to flash. Can anyone help me fix this?
Update: Trying out the USB-OTG-cable I get the error "E: Can't mount /storage/usbdisk"

What errors do you have when installing drivers (adb) on your PC?

What errors do you have when installing drivers (adb) on your PC? Without a PC the only option would be a usb OTG cable, you could hopefully install a 4.3 OS as the recovery isn't new enough for KitKat

[Q] Bricked L70

Hi,
so I rooted my phone, unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, put in 3 different ROMs on my External SD card, went ahead, deleted EVERYTHING from the phone, tried flashing ROMs, not a single one worked.
I rebooted the phone because I saw no other option, TWRP said that there is no OS, I went ahead and did it.
Now the phone won't start, I tried returning it to stock firmware as per lg-phones website guide (worked before, though my phone was not this messed up, I could access download mode and now I can't), but I keep getting connection problems. I have tried doing this with the phone just "turned on", it hangs on LG logo for infinity.
When I try putting the phone in download mode, the only thing I get is fastboot. When I try to use adb devices and other similar commands, it says device not found or simply does not list it, regardless of the "mode" the phone is in. However if I try and use LAF RECOVERY MULTITOOL, it detects my phone and I can use fastboot commands. I have custom recovery, boot and laf imgs on my PC, I tried flashing them all, PC and phone tell me everything's ok, but when I restart the phone, I get nothing... what am I doing wrong, and can this be fixed? If you have any questions, I'll answer to the best of my ability.
Thanks in advance!
SOLVED!!!!
Just found a backup laf.img that enables download mode... PHEW!

Nexus 6 Marshmallow stuck in fastboot loop

I have a relatively new Nexus 6. The last phone that I rooted was the old HTC Hero, and things have changed! I had unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone under 5.1.1 and when I flashed Marshmallow 6.0 yesterday I lost root.
So I decided that I would try to root the phone again. I had problems with the drivers... my PC would recognize the phone when it was powered up normally but as soon as I booted into fastboot I couldn't get ADB to find it.
Then I went to this link: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/marshmallow-root-for-nexus-5-6-7-9-and-player-by-chainfire-84862/
got my fastboot and adb set up and working, followed his instructions to get root, flashed the twrp image, and flashed the SuperSU file. Everything seemed to work properly. Made a complete backup using twerp and transferred it to my PC via USB.
After all this a tap on Reboot System was supposed to restart the phone. Didn't happen.
I'm stuck in a fastboot recovery loop. Whenever I power down and try to turn the phone on I come back to the fastboot screen. When I elect to go into "recovery" it opens the twrp screen on my phone which asks for my pin and then I have the twrp screen with the regular options.
This is new to me... I don't know if access to the twrp screen and its commands is a help or not, but I do realize that the adb and fastboot on my PC is necessary for about anything I need to do and it seems to be working. I believe that I've described my situation accurately...
Any help appreciated!

how about this, adb NEVER EVER works in fastboot mode. that is reserved exclusively for fastboot. you have to use fastboot to flash a recovery, then the recovery to flash supersu.

now it also seems as you have to fastboot flash a factory image as well.

I asked for help before searching thoroughly enough! I figured out that I needed to download another ROM, transfer it into the phone's storage, and install using TWRP. I really didn't understand the capabilities of this fabulous application and had simply flashed it because the thread instructed me to.
