[Guide] Most Problems and Info's that you must Know about ADB and Fastboot

Tips & Guides About Moto G 2014 ADB and FastBoot
The most of people have problems with fastboot and ADB. Here will explain some tips and guides.
- Do u know can use ADB in recovery mode?
Yeah if u have bricked your phone or deleted system or can't put the Debug Mode have a alternative. This happens the Device ADB have two modes. The USB mode and Debugging Mode, using two different drivers. When you download Motorola Device Manager he installs the Debugging Drivers. In Motorola is really hard obtain the correct drivers.
- Can I flash zips with fastboot?
Yeah but isn't recommended the people try that:
- fastboot flash zip myzip.zip
This is incorrect he will try to flash a .IMG in a partition called zip.
- fastboot -I flash system myzip.zip
This is incorrect. When you download a ROM backup to flash in Recovery he have some partitions making that will create a partition into a partition. Bricking your device.
The correct way to flash ROM is in recovery.
- I can't transfer file on my device.. Can I flash?
Yes using two methods
- ADB push
You push to your device a .zip with the Rom eg.:
- adb push my file.zip /sdcard or /sdcard1
This will push your file to the device and you can after that flash in recovery.
Is normal after digit the command nothing happens. Differently fastboot the ADB doesn't shows progress of transfer.
- ADB side load
You can flash sideload the zip
Using adb sideload myzip.zip
Must enable sideload mode on your recovery.
- my device doesn't appear on the list.
When you are on boot loader mode the ADB doesn't runs. Only in recovery mode or system mode.
Most times you have incorrect drivers. But if u are on recovery mode try that on cmd:
adb kill-server
adb usb
This will enter the daemon service in USB mode.
- can I reboot my device in recovery? Yes, adb reboot recovery
- can I wipe my firmware with fastboot? Yes, using these cmds.
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
- can I get my device info?
Yes with ADB.
adb get-imei
adb get-serialno
adb get-deviceno
If u have more questions write here. I will add on OP.

Hello tipe
fastboot oem unlock TheKey
But u can check if is unlocked in the boot loader is is status code 3
Ah.. If the unlock doesn't work:
fastboot oem get-unlock-data
Pick the code without the word (fastboot)
And put all the code in one line.
THE MOTOROLA PAGE DOESNT VALIDATE YOUR ENTERED CODE ONLY GENERATE A CODE WITH YOUR INPUT.
If u put a wrong code. He will generate a wrong code.

Z17S (NX595J) Unlock Bootloader & TWRP

Hi, I'm new to this phone. Just got it 1 week ago. I tried to find any related information on the bootloader unlock and custom recovery, but it is very limited. I think maybe this phone is not well known. I would appreciate if someone can provide me the way to unlock bootloader, flash TWRP and roots. I can't live without magisk and viper4android. Thanks.

Here ya go,
1. Download and install minimal fastboot adb
2.Download TWRP rename it Recovery and move it to minimal fastboot adb folder
3. Unlock bootloader, in fastboot enter the following code : fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX595J
4. then also in fastboot: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5. you may need to format data in TWRP to get it to boot up !
Enjoy your new life !

thanks

Hi, I've tried numerous timed and it always won't pick up the command of unlocking bootloader. It always stay in the fastboot menu. I've toggled the 'OEM Unlock' function in the developer setting, as well as the USB debugging. Any idea why the device won't pick up that command?

Is it changing to unlock after you enter the command?
If so flash twrp then boot into recovery ...

Nope. It doesn't respond to the command in the fastboot. It just shows the fastboot menu. My adb is written 'waiting for device.... '.

Drivers , uninstall all other drivers and try please

I'm having the problem. Unlock is not sticking to unlock. The unlock works and the flash works but as soon as you try and reboot into recovery it hangs at a blank screen no twrp. Console says waiting for device and stuck. next time I go into bootloader it says locked. The count is 3 for unlock count is there a limit? 7-6-18 Nubia Z17 NX591J WIn 10.

Trouble shoot and experiment with the process it will work, even if it appears not locked after reboot

I don't understand? Appears not locked? It is locked. Now I remember when I flashed my Star N997 the developer said that there is a unlock bit that has to be turned on in the process of unlocking. I think this may be the case here since it unlocks until a reboot. I am deep concerned that after a unlock count of 3 the phone will not boot anymore. Do you know anything about these things? Another thought is does the USB C need different drivers and should it be plugged into a USB 3.0 outlet?

TWRP will flash only when it's unlocked so even if it's saying it's locked go by what you can do with TWRP

I did it several times and never had a problem

i was looking for camera.apk file from Nubia Z17S phone from Stock ROM, can anyone upload it here..it should be located in system / app or app-pvt folder, you can copy using Root Explorer tool.
pls. let me know...

I'm having problems unlocking the bootloader. Has anyone got the proper TWRP for this phone? I can't find it. The one I have says FAILED (remote: Requested download size is more than max allowed). Thanks

hello links no longer works. Someone could give me back the TWRP and minimalb fastboot adb

For anyone's information, TWRP will not boot in recovery while the phone is being charged. Unplug first. You will just get a black screen.

i am also experiencing the same issue.. where can i find the drivers for this phone nx595j? or how do i uninstall the drivers for it?

Moto g4 plus recovery boot loop...

Hi guys. Few days ago I unlocked the bootloader of my Moto G4 plus, install twrp recovery and root the phone. Then I made the mistake of trying to install an update from OTA and since that day it is impossible to start the phone normally. It always starts in recovery mode, then I must go to restart to start in fastboot mode and next, select start to be able to use it. I reinstall the latest version of the recovery twrp and the ROM of LineageOS but nothing changes. Can someone tell me if there is any console command I can execute in the phone to start normally?
Thanks for your time...

Thanks for your answer. I don't understand the reference. I can flash any firmware without problem.
I looking for a commands to repair the boot because I have a boot loop with recovery mode.
I can use the phone but only across: recovery > restart > bootloader this restart in fastboot mode, next I select "start" And the phone boot with Android....
I whant to start in Android directly... I whant (if exists) any console command or any solution to fix the boot problem.

Oh, then you can try using these commands through fastboot:
mfastboot oem fb_mode_set
mfastboot oem fb_mode_clear

fastboot devices
does not respond?
Then something should be wrong with PC, cables or device hardly bricked
PS: Is it really in Fastboot mode, did you successfully unlock Fastboot preciously?

yes I did succesfully unlock Fastboot previously. Now fastboot devices not respond.
It looks like it s hardly bricked. Is there anything I can do with hard bricked phone?

This is it correct and I was using 3.12 by prince comsey I used it before for my other older samsung tablet

Do this on pc:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (the twrp NAME of the twrp you just downloaded)
fastboot -w
fastboot boot recovery
Then let me know

And do I do this as admin
And in download mode (I've never used Adb and fastboot but I have rooted many devices )

Yeah, I right click and grant admin full control so I dont need to think about 'admin' rights lol, good pointer for noobs... but download mode would actually be:
fastboot reboot edl?
You'll be using adb a lot more until magisk can flash all boots OFFLINE

So basically just plug it up. And start

Yup, but edl is for emergency flashing... last resort

If you do edl mode, best to reflash stock and start again

So it boots to the stock recovery not twrp

Yeah, then reflash twrp
There's a few choices here, the choice is yours

Soz, let me try to be a bit clearer.
For edl you need to use the flashing software that your fone maker provides to flash your stock image.
Load stock image into this flashing tool and let it check itself, (it just checks integrity of rom)
power off fone
In the flashing tool, hit the flash button, may say start, may say write...
Plug fone into pc
Let us know.

Still didn't work I tried everything it just sits there saying that it's trying to flash recovery.img and that's it never completes nothing
