[Solved] [Q] [XPM] Unable to go to fastboot mode!

[reptakos]

Hi,

I unlocked the bootloader of my SK17i via the testpoint, now I am trying to install a custom kernel (rage kernel).

It seems that there is no way for the device to go to "fast boot mode" it goes to "flash mode". I really don't know what the is going.
I even tried the "Reboot into fast boot" option, nothing happened..
I installed without any error the drivers.exe file that was into the flash tool (OS: windows XP SP3)

The firmware is 4.0.2.a.0.62, flashtool version: flashtool-0.9.10.1

here is the log of the flash tool

Thank you in advance for any info/help

First of all - Did you install the fastboot driver for your phone?

Also,did you hold down volume up button while connecting your phone to pc?

Also again,is your phone have status Bootloader Unlock Allowed : No?If yes,you can't use fastboot sorry...even without unlocking bootloader,the device with yes status can access fastboot

It seems it was an issue with the USB ports! When I connect the mobile to any USB 1.1 port (its an old Thinkpad, as my main system runs win8x64 and its not easy to install non signed drivers there..) the XP did not pop up the info that found "fastboot device" etc etc. After I used an USB 2.0 PCMCIA card everything went well!

Just to reply to your questions, the Bootloader unlock status is YES, I connected the XMP when I pressed the volume UP (notification LED was Blue) and as I mention I installed all the drivers from the drivers.exe that came with the flashtool. It seems that the device cannot connected to fastboot mode using USB 1.1 ports...

I have the same problem. I am in cm10 now with their extended kernel. But now, when I try to flash any kernel, my phone desn't connect with flashboot mood. It always connect with flash mood. I have installed proper drivers.
So, why this is happening?
Please
