Ok, I *have* searched the forums and googled this, but none of the standard solutions seem to work.
I have the Verizon HTC One and successfully ran the rumrunner S-OFF (root, unlocked, etc). Now I want to flash a recovery using fastboot, but no matter what I do, I cannot get "fastboot devices" to show anything (or I get <waiting for device> if I try anything else with fastboot). ADB works fine.
On Ubuntu 11.10:
I downloaded the back-ported android-tools (apt-get install android-tools-fastboot/adb from the ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 repository).
I tried fastboot as root, and I also tried with a udev rule (SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666").
adb works fine (I used it to reboot in fastboot-usb mode)
I tried different USB ports.
On Windows 7:
I tried both fastboot from the Android SDK and from the "Minimal Tools".
ADB works fine.
I un-installed and re-installed drivers as I plugged in and unplugged my phone into the USB ports.
Note that Windows 7 does complain about the drivers and says that the device is unplugged when it isn't. It seems to timeout when trying to install drivers from the internet
I tried installing and uninstalling HTC Sync, PDANet.
I would prefer if there is a way to make it work in Ubuntu so that I can eliminate the Windows drivers from the equation. Anything obvious that I missed? Does the version of fastboot matter?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
