adb sees phone when off but not when it is in hboot or recovery

djrottweiler · Jul 24, 2013

If the answer to this is out there I am sorry TRUST me I have been searching. I have a phone a customer brought to me he tried flashing a rom and forgot to flash the boot.img, now it just sits at the HTC splash screen. I can see the phone when it is off but can't push any files to it via adb. When the phone is on no matter where I am in the recovery I can not see the phone in adb. If I leave it on the splash screen I am also not able to see it. PLEASE HELP

Keep the power button + volume down button pressed as long as it takes to see the bootloader, plug the phone into the pc (and use the original usb cable and a usb 2.0 port)

Then try to fastboot it

Fastboot devices (if a serial pops up its oke)

You don't really need adb to fix a hox !

I am waiting for the phone to grab a charge again it died overnight. I have done what you mentioned but I was using a USB 3 port. Will that make that much of a difference? I just need to be able to get files on it so I can get it back for my customer.

Thanks Again

Yes in some occasions it makes a very huge difference, usb 3 ports seems to have a bad relation with fastboot.

And files to the phone can be copied via the latest custom recoverys, mount it as a usb storage device inside it and it will pop up as a diskdrive on the pc !

Push the right boot.img to adb tools folder and flash it with fastboot flash boot boot.img

Not sure if you know...only wrote it to make this complete
