I have adb and the needed drivers installed on my Windows PC, my phone is a Huawei P9 Lite and im trying to unlock the bootloader but the phone isnt beening detected when its in the fastboot mode. I have looked on XDA forums and nothing has helped so far. When i enter "fastboot devices" into CMD nothing comes up but when i enter "adb devices" my phone comes up so its not being recognised by fastboot. I put my phone into fastboot mode and tried "fastboot devices" and still nothing came up. I need to flash a ROM on it because the EMUI skin is really bad, could someone give me sugestions for a working ROM (I heard that using Cyanogenmod will remove a lot of features like camera and fingerprint)
I know, it's basic, but ( from XDA Forum )
Now we must activate the OEM Unlock option on your phone, go under Settings/Developer Options and tick the "Enable OEM unlock" option. In the same menu check if USB Debbuging mode is enabled, if not do it !
And for the rom, I don't like EMUI very much but Stock Rom with Nova Launcher give a good result
Double check drivers, setting, USB cable etc (Hisuite installed on PC and phone).
On the phone check if USB Debugging and OEM Unlock is cheeked and if USB debugging authorized is accepted.
If the phone is ok, untuched, is no reason for what you say...

OK I did that now and when im in fastboot mode the "FRP Unlock" text is now red, before it was green. I wrote "fastboot oem unlock CODETHINGHERE" and its still waiting for device. "fastboot devices" still shows nothing.
I'm not sure I did iy by the same way, I've just follow EXACTLY, step by step this how to :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-t3405701
I did it two times ,the only issu I had was because I forgot OEM unlock.
Read carrefuly the how to from the link, you 'll find what you need
That's most likely because you are on Windows 8.1+. Use the file from this thread - download, remove ".txt" and double-click. Don't worry about the KB update, with 99.99% certainty, you have it installed already. The .reg file will change something in your Windows Registry (no worries, it's safe). Reboot your PC and your phone should be detected by your PC after running fastboot commands Let us know if it helped!
Hey man probably you need to installa manual driver from pc. Connect you phone (in fastboot & and rescue mode) to the PC, than click with right button on Computer ( icon on desktop) and then click on "management" form here try to understand this image: http://prnt.sc/czanve
It's in italian made by me for a friend, I think you can easly understand just look images.
PS. for the moment I think you can find that driver in "kedacom usb device" and not "Android phone" as in picture
Still doesnt work

I have followed Heisenbergs instructions to the letter but when I issue the adb devices command it just returns the string "list of devices" and that's it. Fastboot devices doesn't work either.
So I'm stuck at the start. Can anyone help me? From what I can tell I may need drivers but I'm new to this so I don't know.
I can give anyone more info if they need it.
I believe part of the instructions are to install the Platform Tools, which should include drivers. Try running the SDK Manager and updating or installing the drivers again. Also ensure you have USB Debugging ON in your Developer settings and OEM Unlocking enabled. Lastly, tap the notification in your shade about the USB connection (I think it defaults to Charging Only) and change it to various modes. Mine seems to only work on PTP mode. When you run the adb devices command you will need to authorize the connection on the phone end the first time by clicking OK so make sure the screen is on and unlocked so you can see it.
Hope this helps.

u enable OEM Unlock under developer settings?
You enable USB debugging?
Me personally do not get any strings of data returned when im on fastboot
i open CMD, run ADB DEVICES, get message saying the port is opening, and then listing devices... which is empty
but i am able to flash anything i want using fastboot....
try this command and see if it works after that... fastboot reboot-bootloader
it should reboot bootloader for u.. thats a easy way to know its responding to u
Is the device showing properly in the Device Manager when it's connected to your system?

Did you change the USB mode? Mine shows in Explorer as you described but won't work in ADB/Fastboot until I change it to PTP.

Yeah I tried every option. Nothing.
The instructions say the fastboot devices command should return my serial number and it does not.
When booted into the bootloader one it tells me on one line phone LOCKED and on another line says download mode DISABLED.
Don't know if this has anything to do with my problems but I still cannot get a return on the fastboot devices command in order to proceed with the unlock command of "fastboot flashing unlock"
remember that u need latest fastboot for this to work.
did u updated the SDK manager to the latest? i had to do that in order to work for 6P

I had the same issue ,it was down to when I plugged the phone into the PC for the first time,it installed the Google.USB driver ,but it didn't install the driver for the adb interface,I had to download it from Google and install it manually
I also had the same issue, I had an old Clockworkmod generic driver that I was using for my Samsung Galaxy S5 installed.
Go to Device manager (either type it in the start menu, or: right click This PC, click manage, and click device manager), plug in your unlocked Nexus 6P phone and watch for a new item to pop up. If it says android something, uninstall it. I had to uninstall 3 times, then reinstall the drivers from the SDK before it would work.
I used the skipsoft toolkit to install the fb drivers; worked for me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...ol-skipsoft-android-toolkit-nexus-6p-t3234159
but like others said, you may have to manually remove any that are already installed in windows, although I think that is one of the options in the toolkit.

Solved my problem as well. Thanks!
I am not being able to unlock my K4 Note no matter and I will have to admit it's so frustrating. I am not new to unlocking and modding party but i just cannot get to have this done!
I downgraded from S230 to s218 & now on s219. I am able to get adb to recognize my device but not fastboot. Thus I am unable to unlock bootloader!
When I type in " adb reboot bootloader" or click on the "unlock_recovery.bat" file provided, I get booted into a dark screen where "fastboot" is written at the bottom left & the command prompt window says < waiting for device> & I am stuck there until I reboot my phone.
i have been seeking an answer to this since the last 3 days but am yet to find one
This is problem with the driver, I too had problem. Do enable usb debugging, connect to PC, it will ask permission in phone, give ok. Now a lenovo folder will appear on PC, click on usb driver installation, done.
Now try adb and fastboot device will detect.. Also i hope u enabled oem unlock in usb debugging
Hit Thanks if it helped!!!
Same problem
I am also facing the same problem
Please provide solution if you found one
I want to unlock my bootloader of moto g4 plus but there is many hurdles which I face.

I recommend to follow this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...de-root-moto-g4-plus-supersu-android-t3587918
When your device isn't recognized by your pc you need to check if any firewall, antivirus or the driver signature verification prevents your device from being recognized. Also make sure that you reboot your pc after the installation of the Motorola drivers.

Type "fastboot devices" when connected to the PC. If it shows your serial number of your phone then ok. If not, problems I mentioned before should be checked at your end.
I enter fastboot devices and again it shown <where my device> ,I reboot PC and also check but again it shown <where my device>.
My friend suggest that Motorola driver not installed properly ,so uninstall it first and install again ,and go to device manager and if yellow mark is shown then definitely driver is not installed ,but he not give any further information about it , because he didn't know. It shows , fastboot Athens 16_mps with yellow mark in device manager .

Have you checked firewall and antivirus to be disabled?
You can also provide the whole console output here to get better overview of your errors :good:
Actually I don't have PC / laptop ,so for unlocking bootloader I was go to my friend' home and use laptop of him and there is disable firewall as you mentioned.

Oh, nice to know...
Unless you did not provide an console output its hard to help. Additional you need to make sure that "fastboot devices" displays the serial number, if it doesn't, you need to check firewall, driver signature verification, antivirus etc etc on the PC of your friend.
It's a common problem and the things to check by your end are the same and everything I've seen and read it's cause of the mentioned problems. Maybe your friend has something wrong configured or whatever.

In addition to strongst's helpful replies which I concur with (device signature enforcement on Windows 10 is a common issue, as it may stop you from installing the fastboot driver, and thus your device won't be loaded. Disable driver enforcement if you can and it doesn't void the laptop warranty), are you using the original Motorola USB cable or a high quality USB data cable? Also, try another USB port if you can.
For information, I've attached the Device Manager screenshot of my device, booted into the bootloader, and connected via the original USB cable to a USB 2.0 port. You'll note it's loaded as an Android Device via the Motorola ADB Interface (from the Motorola Device Manager software https://motorola-global-en-roe.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/89881 ). Your device, loaded as fastboot athene_16mp suggests it's a driver issue.
Furthermore, if you want to unlock your bootloader, you'll need a computer to flash TWRP and may be useful having a computer around for troubleshooting/reverting back to stock Motorola firmware.
Just for curiosity sake I hope you changed the connection from charging to file transfer and switched on usb debugging. Cuz otherwise all what is needed already said by others. :/
Whenever I go to my friend's house and use his laptop to unlock my bootloader I will give you screen shot of display which causes problem for me to unlock my bootloader,thanks sir!!!!! And how to know that any anti virus ,firewall and other things you mentioned is stop me to install moto drivers?

Tutorials for disabling driver enforcement can be found through a Google search (e.g. here's a link : https://www.drivethelife.com/window...e-enforcement-on-windows-10-8-7-xp-vista.html ) Of course, ask your friend before attempting this, as this allows you and anyone else to install and run unsigned drivers (including the fastboot drivers).
Okk thanks bro

Hey Guys,
i tried to Root my Moto E4 but Unfortunally i cant get Fastboot to work under Windows 10 Home 64 Bit on Both my Notebook and my PC. I installed The Motorola Device Manager (Since it comes with drivers) and installed ADB and Fastboot but once i Reboot into Fastboot Mode it wont Recognize it for flashing. The CMD Just Says Waiting for Device. I have expierience with Rooting other Phones but i never had this much Trouble getting Fastboot to work properly. Would be awesome if u could show me a Solution to this since i really want a Custom Rom.

There's no trick, it just works. I have Windows 10 64 bit as well and no issues. Maybe you need to update your platform tools (adb and fastboot). Using old ones can be a problem.
What command are you issuing? Just fastboot devices ?
Make sure you're not using a USB 3.0 port on your computer.

Few other thoughts:
- try a different cable; a cable that works for charging and adb communication may not work with fastboot
- avoid external hubs if possible
- be sure to reboot both devices after switching drivers if communication isn't immediately established

When you say you booted to fastboot what do you mean ?
Did use adb and your phone was recognized and then you issued adb command or what method are you using ....
You need to ensure you establish USB debugging connection first & grant authorization ...once link with authorization has been established run adb ...from adb check if recognized run command to boot to fastboot
So start from the top && go down
ARE YOU CERTAIN YOU USED CORRECT METHOD TO TURN OFF DRIVER VERIFICATION ON WINDOWS 10 && YOUR DRIVER ACTUALLY INSTALLED
Last noteworthy point ... when unlocking my motoE4 I had to boot to bootloader ONLY to use fastboot NOT "FASTBOOT"
Hold power + volume button
Excellent troubleshooting from our community. OP has not come back yet to confirm, ask another question, or simply a thanks. (Maybe he got it) Hopefully he gets it sorted.
Maybe the junior members underestimate just how quick and helpful our little community can be.
@Marc_Xperia Do not forget to install AndroidBootloaderInterface Driver Software. *android_winusb.inf*
Thats what my Problem is. I installed the Latest Android Studio, i have gone to SDK Manager. Installed the Android 7.1 Files and USB Drivers and this happens everytime i want to unlock my BL. And yes i disabled Driver Signing on Windows 10. I call it Fastboot Mode since im Used to Xperias so im Sorry i confused anyone.

When you authorize your adb connection do you tick or select always allow connections from this device ...the fact that your device is listed as *unauthorised* is a clear indication in your previous attempts you didn't authorize to "allways allow connections" from this device
#result _when you reboot authorization is revoked
Enter bootloader mode the old skool way using your buttons..
# MAKE SURE TO SELECT "ALLOW OEM UNLOCK OPTION IN DEVELOPS settings
1.AUTHORIZE TO "ALWAYS ALLOW CONNECTIONS FROM THIS DEVICE"
2.enter bootloader using hardware keys
3.plug in usb
4.run fastboot devices to force fastboot to start deamon ...
5.once fastboot can see your device run oem unlock
6.DO NOT USE USB 3 port so try different USB ports on pc
7. Alternatively use a live USB of Ubuntu minimal to do the job
--- doesn't seem like driver problem if adb can see your device
See if that works

Why select meta mode ? When you are in bootloader you use your volume keys to navigate between meta, recovery& factory reset & meta and you use your power key to select different modes ...what do you want to do in meta mode ?
When you are in bootloader you are essentially in fastboot mode too so it isn't necessary to choose any of the other options unless you are trying to get into recovery which is pointless if you haven't flashed custom recovery yet ..
I Succeded. I Booted into Bootloader with ADB and took a look at Device Manager to install the Driver Properly.
i followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e4/how-to/guide-unlock-moto-e4-bootloader-unique-t3654275.

As title states, I have converted to international version from t mobile. I put the phone into fast boot to try and OEM unlock. but on PC , in command prompt, it doesn't show up. I've been searching for hours through posts on here, but haven't found an answer to why. I've already gone through and done the conversion with the tools, but now that its converted, I've gone back into developer options, clicked OEM unlock, and as I read in another post, clicked USB debugging. But still nothing. When its not in debugging mode, it shows in task manager when phones on, but when I put into fast boot, it does not show in PC. But, either way, and through any USB port, it does not come up in fast boot devices in command prompt. Can anyone help with this issue.

you have to be booted in bootloader for fastboot to work.
