It is showing my device in "adb devices" when it is turned on, but it is not there when it is in fastboot mode, i cant flash any img, it stucks, i have done everything, unlocked bootloader, everything. But fastboot doesnt see my device, i have done a bit of research and i realised that it is showing SAMSUNG drivers under my ASUS device tab in that device manager, i have seen this problem in another topic and they said they have uninstalled those samsung drivers trough control panel and it worked for them, but i tried that and installed google drivers from google SDK, ASUS drivers that came with aus sync, both at once, then 1 of them and neither worked and i have tried like 95581546 things, reinstalling, uninstalling,restarting pc, disabling antivirus, and i cant get adb to see my device in fastboot. And in hdwwiz, when i am installing drivers manually it shows me Samsung drivers in Asus group and i dont know how to remove them from there. Or any ideas how i can get it to work?

Thanks

For me, it was a wiring problem. I hadn't got the original wire plugged, but a second one bought in ebay. Then I used the original one, and problem solved. I hope it is your problem.

Try using the Universal Naked Drivers instead.

Have you tried a different USB port on your PC? I know when I first started customizing my tablet I had problems using the front ports on my PC. It wouldn't recognize my tablet in fastboot, but when I plugged into one of the back ports directly on the motherboard it worked great.

Ehh

I have reinstalled drivers few times and plugged it to back of the PC and it works! It is still not showing my tablet in adb devices (now i am not sure if it should show it there in fastboot) but the img transfer has finished and everything is fine, thanks for all help!
