Unable to find device in RSDLite

Hi guys, I'm using Motorola Milestone and my bootloader is 90.78. I opened RSDLite and plug in the phone in bootloader mode but my RSDLite is unable to detect my device.
I have already installed the motorola drivers. Anyone has any ideas?

Click to collapse
Same issue here. I have bootloader 90.74. On my Windows 7 there's no way...
Drivers 4.1 and 4.6 tested...but no way...
Anyone has any ideas about this issue?
Weird problem :s Works fine on my Win 7 VM. You could maybe try to uninstall and reinstall the driver :/
Some people have issues with RSDLite on Windows 7 64 bits.
I used to have the same problem and finally I had to install it on my netbook which has W7 32 bits and it worked fine.
Did you managed to install it in an other computer ?
The latest RSDLite versions didn't worked for either but version 4.5.3 works good under Windows 7 for me!
I found a solution
Like the rest, I too had the same problem. Then I found out how to make it work by accident.
I am using RSDlite version 4.5.7 on Windows 7 (32-bit version).
This is what you must do.
Step 1:
Download Open Recovery Version 1.46 for Milestone from http://www.modmymobile.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=28089
Step 2:
It is a rar file, so use any free software to extract out the contents of this OpenRecovery_v1_46_SHOLS.rar file to a new folder on your desktop.
After u have extracted it, look for a file called vulnerable_recovery.sbf. Copy out this vulnerable_recovery.sbf file to somewhere on your pc for example to the root of your C drive on your PC.
Step 3:
Download from this script to disable the recovery check for signed recovery menu (so that we can apply update.zip later) from
http://modmymobile.com/forums/attac...le-recovery-disable_recovery_check_by_ota.zip.
Unzip the file and there should be a file called Disable_recovery_check_by_OTA.sh
Step 4:
Copy the Disable_recovery_check_by_OTA.sh file to a sub folder called scripts that is within the OpenRecovery folder (which we have already extracted earlier) (eg. OpenRecovery\scripts).
Step 5:
Boot up the phone as per normal and then connect the phone to PC via USB cable
Step 6:
Change the USB Connection to Memory Card Accessl
Step 7:
Go to the desktop of your PC and open up the folder where the contents of the extracted OpenRecovery_v1_46_SHOLS.rar file is. You should then copy the update.zip to the root of your phone's SD card (eg. SDcard\update.zip).
Also copy the whole OpenRecovery folder also to the root level of your SD card (eg. SDcard\OpenRecovery)
Step 8:
Change the USB Connection to Portal & Tool. This is the trick that will allow RSDLite to detect your phone.
Step 9:
Launch RSDLite ver.4.5.7
Step 10:
It will take a few seconds for your phone to appear in the device list of RSDLite
Step 11:
Click on the "..." button and locate and open the vulnerable_recovery.sbf file which we have extracted earlier and had copied out to somewhere (eg. root of C drive).
Step 12:
Click on the "Start" button.
Step 13:
Immediately you would see something in the status progress of RSDlite. RSDlite will switch your phone to the Bootloader mode by itself.
Step 14: - Very Important Step
Pay attention to the status of the Bootloader on your phone. Halfway thru the progress of flashing the vulnerable_recovery.sbf, RSDlite will initiate a reboot of your phone.
When that happens, you must prevent the phone from rebooting into the normal Android mode and get it to boot into the Bootloader mode by quickly pressing & holding up on your D-pad in horizontal (landscape) position.
I would suggest that b4 RSDlite initiate the reboot, you should be prepared for it by sliding out the keyboard first and hold it in the horizontal (landscape) position and get ready to press up on the D-Pad.
by quickly turning your phone to the horizontal position (landscape) and press and hold up on the D-Pad of your phone. Hold the up key of your D-pad for about 3 to 4 seconds before release it and it should be now back in the bootloader mode.
Do not do anything yet. You will know when the flashing of the vulnerable_recovery.sbf is completed and successful when the result in RSDLite device list window says "PASS".
Step 15: - Also very important step
Once the flashing of the vulnerable_recovery.sbf is complete (after you see "PASS" in RSDlite), you may close RSDlite and then unplug the phone from the USB cable.
The phone is still in the bootloader mode. Now be prepared to boot into the recovery mode. This is very important. If you fail to boot into the recovery mode then you will have to repeat from Step 8
The technique that I use on my Motorola Milestone to boot into the recovery mode is by using the 3 button technique. I press the "x" key + power button + camera button together at the same time and hold it until the recovery mode icon appears which is a an exclamation mark within a triangle.
Step 16:
While in the recovery mode, slide the keyboard back in. Then press and hold the volume up button first and then press the camera button once and when you see the recovery menu you can quickly release the volume up button.
Step 17:
Slide the keyboard out. Use the D-pad to navigate. If you are holding the phone in vertical position, then to navigate up and down the recovery menu, just press up or down on the D-pad. To confirm your selection, press down on the middle of your D-Pad.
Using your D-Pad, scroll down to the part it says "apply sdcard:update.zip" and press the middle of your D-Pad to select it.
You should see something packages being downloaded to your phone which is part of the installation process of the Motorola Milestone Open Recovery Menu which is not the stock Recovery Menu.
Step 18:
Once you are in the Motorola Milestone Open Recovery Menu, scroll down to the option that says "Run Script". Select that option.
Step 19:
Then you should be able to see a list of scripts and one of them should be "Disable_recovery_check_by_OTA.sh". Select that script.
Step 20:
Once that "Disable_recovery_check_by_OTA.sh" has been applied, the phone will no longer check for signed recovery menus like this Motorola Milestone Open Recovery Menu when ever you go into the stock recovery menu to "apply sdcard:update.zip". This means you can install different types of "Open Recovery Menu" for different custom roms for Motorola Milestone.
Besides using this Motorola Milestone Open Recovery Menu, I have also tried the following 2 "Open Recovery Menu" on my Milestone:
1) Androidiani OpenRecovery 3.3 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796679
2) G.O.T OpenRecovery (for installing G.O.T custom FROYO rom) - http://groupoften.wordpress.com/g-o-t-s-openrecovery/
Important Note:
Before you start to install custom roms please do a Nandroid back up of your phone in case something goes wrong during the installation of the custom rom, you can restore your phone back to stock rom.
The Nandroid back up and restore option is available within all 3 "Open Recovery Menu" mentioned above.
I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and I use Motorola USB Drivers 4.7.1 and RSD Lite 4.9. So it would be good to download these versions, which are the latest. If this wont work, do a factory reset on your Milestone.

Also, if it's not much of a bother, can you try the LG Flash Package as well?
Use V20B_00.kdz and see if it's rootable?
no no bother at all the only problem is lol i don't know what that is i already have it downloaded on my desktop. maybe if you could explain what that is for sure i would do it
Basically it's all the files needed to flash the phone.
There's a step by step guide in the first post. I feel like I'm missing something though as another user got an error with the internet connection...
It you get an error, you don't put your phone in danger. It just won't flash anything.
wait what is it supposed to be flashing just curious? a rom? or what?

---- BEFORE STABLE UPDATE ----
One UI 3.0 beta has been released for Galaxy Z Fold2 5G.
If you are part of the supported regions, you can grab the update link and share it here (for each update).
These are the steps I borrowed from @AhmedMomen 's S10 thread.
How to capture the update.zip file to share with other people:
1. Download HTTP canary app from Play Store.
2. Open HTTP Canary app.
3. Start the update by pressing "Download". Don't pause it!
4. Go back to Canary app and start it. It will grab the link for you.
5. Please share the link and your model number here!
As for how to sideload the update.zip file, I have explained it step-by-step here:
ADB Method:
1. Download and install adb.
2. Connect your phone to your PC.
3. Download the update file where you have installed adb Platform Tools.
4. Rename the file (including the extension) to "update.zip". Click "Yes" on the prompt.
5. Open your terminal of choice.
6. Type "adb reboot recovery" and press ENTER on your keyboard. Wait for your phone to reboot to recovery mode.
7. Navigating with the volume buttons and selecting with the power button, go to "Apply update via ADB".
8. Back to the terminal on your PC type "adb sideload update.zip". (NOTE: If it says that device is not connected, just remove and put the USB cable back until it works).
9. The update is being installed. It will be completed when the phone boots up. You may use your phone normally after.
10. Report any bugs on the Samsung Members app! https://www.samsung.com/global/galaxy/apps/samsung-members/
SD Card Method:
1. Search for an update file. You can usually find one in XDA Forums.
2. Check if you have the right build and open the right link.
3. Download the update file (.bin extension).
4. Move the update file to your SD Card. (NOTE: If you are getting errors, back up the stuff of your SD Card and format it from your Galaxy phone.)
5. Rename the .bin file (including the extension) to "update.zip". Click "Change" on the prompt.
6. Reboot to Recovery Mode, by connecting your phone to another device (such as your earphones) and holding the Volume Up + Power (+ Bixby) buttons.
7. Navigating with the volume buttons and selecting with the power button, go to "Apply update via SD Card".
8. Navigate to and select "update.zip".
9. The update will start installing. It will be completed when the phone boots up. You may use your phone normally after.
10. Report any bugs on the Samsung Members app! https://www.samsung.com/global/galaxy/apps/samsung-members/
