Bricked Oneplus 2 Not Connecting To PC

- How My Phone Got Bricked?: (Chinese Version Oneplus 2) I Was On Oxygen OS 3.0 And TWRP 3.0 And I Decided To Flash The Resurrection Remix ROM, I Did A Full Wipe And I Installed The Rom And It Failed To Installed The ROM. Now My Phone Is In A Bootloop With No OS Installed. I Have The Chinese Version OP2
- Current State Of My Device: My Device Is In A Bootloop With No OS Installed, I Did Notice That My Phone Was Not Being Recognized VIA Fastboot & ADB On My PC. I Went Fastboot Mode And My Phone Is Not Being Recognized By PC, And I Went To TWRP, ADB Was Not Working And ADB Sideload Is Not Working. I Also Tried A USB OTG With A USB Drive And Still TWRP Recovery Is Not Recognizing It. How Ever When I Connect My Device To PC And Check Device Manager And Press Scan For Hard Ware Changes My Device Shows Up As "COM 1". I Also Did Try To Put My Phone Into Qualcomm Mode Trying Alot Of Key Combinations But My Phone Is Not Getting Into Qualcomm Mode Or It Just Might Be Me Since I Heard Its Tricky For The Phone To Get Into Qualcomm Mode. I Did Try One Click ADB And Fastboot Installed And Qualcomm USB Driver, Still No Luck. And I Did Try The MEGA Unbrick Guide. I Have Tried This With 3 Other Computers Which Are All Running Windows 10 And Turned Driver Signature Enforcement Off And Still No Luck, And Also A PC Running Linux Mint And Still No Luck. Please Help Me And I Will Put All Thanks On All Of Your Replies And I Really Appreciate Your Help!
- Whats Working:
- My Device Charges From The PC And Wall
- I Am Using The Official OP2 Cable
- Can Access Recovery + Fastboot
- Turns On But In A Bootloop

I think it's a bad cable... if you can get into fastboot and the PC with Windows 10 and Linux both don't see it.. cable

Not sure whats needed on windows, since I never use it....but after a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 a few days ago, I did have to install a few adb and fastboot packages before my devices were recognized. Do you know if the adb/fastboot packages and they're dependencies are installed on the Linux mint computer?
If yes, power off phone and plug into computer. Then start phone in fastboot mode. Open a terminal on the PC and run "adb devices" (without quotes of course) .....any output on screen?

Yeah I did try typing ADB devices and Fastboot devices in both twrp and fastboot. I think the issue might be the cable

Yeah I think the cable is probably the problem. Although my phone chargers with the cable. I will look into buying a new cable soon but its a little expensive. I will try to buy it next week

I'm sure you been reading and seen people with the same cable as ours with the same problem.. works with charging but not adb or fastboot. But you can try to issue a command with it.. fastboot devices does sometimes come back empty.. just try to do OEM unlock for example.

My cable did used to work with adb and fastboot before, and I did unlock the bootloader with it before. I think now the cable got broken

Same issue working cable
Same issue... but my cable is working fine. I have a 2nd OP2 and tried the qualcomm connect with my cable and volume up, and worked perfect. More over, I swapped motherboards and still didnt work. I have access to twrp on the phone and I can get into fastboot. But no way to connect to my pc

ADB Disconnects when phone is in bootloader

So I'm trying to install TWRP through ADB, but every time i reboot my phone into bootloader, adb disconnects and my computer does not recognize it. This problem only recently started. I am on the official version of Nougat. Does anyone else have this problem and know a solution? Thanks!

ADB is only supposed to work while the phone is loaded into the OS or in sideload mode. In bootloader mode, only fastboot will work.
So the correct command to flash the recovery would be:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-name.img
Example:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-1-angler.img

sorry my mistake, I meant fastboot. The problem I'm having is that i cannot even enter these commands. It disconnects as soon as it goes into bootloader mode.

Uninstall and then reinstall the drivers by connecting the device. Also, try switching ports.

as weird as it may be, try changing the cable also
I was getting fastboot errors when flashing recovery few days ago, and just by curiosity,I tried with another cable.. it worked with no errors
one more thing.. if you send an adb command to reboot in bootloader, then you have to physically unplug your phone from the computer and plug it back again
only after that, fastboot devices command will show your phone in fastboot mode

Does charging work fine? And did you try using a different computer? Try charging the phone with that cord that you're using. (even though it's really short, see if it charges steadily)

Try updating adb drivers. and make sure you're using data transfer cable, there are many charging cables out there.. those will not read your phone in transfer mode, I've faced this, solved by purchasing new data cable.

[HELP]Device not detecting in fastboot mode

I had installed Moto drivers and also enabled the usb debugging but my my device is not showing in fastboot mode.
Seriously need help.
Thank you.

Just to clarify, when you reboot your device into the bootloader (fastboot), if you type the command 'fastboot devices' (without quotes) in ADB, you get nothing showing up in the device list?
Which Moto drivers are you using, what device do you have and are you issuing the commands via minimal ADB or another ADB command tool?

Turn on your phone and run " adb devices " then see if it's getting connected in power on mode or not.. if not then try to install Adb Drivers..

Tried with ADB drivers still not working. I think its a driver problem how to reset drivers in Windows 10 machine

It's same as you do in other Windows, go to "Device Manager" you will find device related name in that Tree,
Uninstall it and update again..

If installing drivers again, use of different USB port, different data cable don't work then better to use different PC..

If you're on Windows 10 with an UEFI firmware, I recall you need to disable driver signature enforcement if you wish to use fastboot. Credit to: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70792544&postcount=2028
Hopefully it'll work with the Linux distro though

This was very helpful. Took me hours to find it but glad I did. On to step 2. lol How I was able to fix not being able to load anything in fastboot was this.
1. I right clicked on the Motorola_Mobile_Drivers_64bit.msi and selected uninstall. Repair did nothing.
2. Rt click view properties of Motorola_Mobile_Drivers_64bit.msi.
3. On the general tab I noticed it was blocked so I unblocked it.
4. Then switched to Compatibility tab.
5. Selected run compatibility mode, any previous version of windows.
--This stops the version checker
6. Hit apply save and ran it.

Fastboot Not Recognized

I am not able to get Fastboot to reconginze my One Plus 6T. I have reinstalled the drivers numerous times to no avail. I have changed ports to no avail. I have change USB cables to no avail. Is anyone else having a similar problem and if so, any solution?
BTW, I am using a Windows 10 computer.
Also, I was able to install the International Version on my TMO variant One Plus 6T via the MSM tool method, so the drivers appear to be installed correctly.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Delete the drivers you have installed, boot into fastboot and have Windows automatically detect and install for you. Have you tried that? What source did you get your fastboot drivers from?

Msmdownload drivers are not the same at all, they are Qualcom drivers. Uninstall your fastboot drivers and let windows install them

Oh man, I had issues getting my 6t to connect to my PC when I first got my 6t. The answer for me was to plug my phone into a USB 2.0 port on the BACK of my PC instead of the front USB ports my PC has. Try using the back USB ports and let me know if that works for you!

Thank you all. I will try these suggestions later today and report back.

I tried the suggestions and still no success in fastboot connecting with my device. Thanks again for the suggestions.

After trying to multiple times reinstall the drivers, manually selecting "Android Bootloader Interface" did the trick for me on win10:

Issue resolved. Selected Android Bootloader Interface in Device Manager and fastboot recognized my device. Unlocked Bootloader, installed TWRP and Magisk. Root achieved.
Thank you all!!!

Thank you! I can't believe I didn't think to check that.

it is solved for me oneplus 6t not recognized in fastboot
{ solved for me } hello brother, i got this problem also my head was about to explosing, install/uninstall drivers and adb drivers also, without any success, when the device is on normal mod the adb terminal can recognize it and in fastboot mod not recognize my devie (the list empty).
i was trying to install TWRP, so i have reboot my device to fastboot mod, and i didn't think about List of devices (because it not show my device) i wrote the comand to install TWRP directly so it success to install 100%,
so no need to write : adb devices when your device is in fastboot mod, it will not show you in the list, but you can apply what you want normally
good luck

This is why I use Linux in my LOS Install Guide. You can boot Linux from a USB without installing it. Fastboot and ADB just work, without any drivers. Install TWRP, reboot and your PC will be back to windows. My guide covers installing TWRP.

Really need help. I'm going in circles and wasting a lot of time:
I'm attempting to root a OP6T A6013. Its already been unlocked.
My device is recognized when powered up as an ADB device.
But when i boot into the bootloader it isnt recognized as a fastboot device, and my laptop (Win 8.1) shows ""device malfunctioned. USB not recognized". I've also been trying to install the OP driver but I'm not sure its working correctly. But would that cause the problem with recognizing fastboot?
I've root my OP7Pro (twice, actually) and though I had some driver issues then eventually figured it out. But I never had issues with fastboot.
Any tips or direction?

Hey all , replying to share my solution to this exact problem I was having..
My OP6T (T-Mobile converted to international) was not showing in fastboot devices but showed in ADB.. after hours of searching google and XDA , I ended up just plugging my 6T into another computer and it worked! , instantly recognized my device without hassle.
So just a fyi, it could be something simple as switching USB ports or even another computer.
hopefully this helps if someone get's stuck at this point.

I had this issue with a OP8Pro... I went to Windows Update and selected View Optional Updates and found Android Bootloader Device on the list. I selected this to download, and then fastboot worked perfectly.

Pc cant detect fastboot device

Tried miui 12 and after flashing rom the twrp is gone I tried to reflash it the same way I did first but sadly when I'm on fastboot PC can't detect it. also tried it with other softwares but same result. Device is fine and responds when open but not in fastboot mode. Currently running miui 11 .0.6 China stable. Stucked. Also all drivers are updated

Same here.
I accidentally flashed china stable 11.0.4 zip rom on my global device through twrp and upon booting up twrp was gone and when i plug in usb the pc doesn't detect anything. In order to make pc detect the phone via usb cable i have to reboot phone while plugging usb to laptop that way file transfer option shows up in laptop and adb works but fastboot doesn't work i can force boot to fastboot through adb but upon booting to fastboot the pc stucks at waiting for device. All the drivers are installed
Currently on china stable 11.0.6

Same issue indeed
That's exactly what's happening right now. I hope someone can help us

Quote me if u find any luck.

Same issues

That happens me sometimes. I only reboot the device into fastboot again, reboot the computer, and that it. This may change depending on your computer CPU, mine is AMD. And ussually I have to use a 2.0 USB or if it still does not work a USB 2.0 hub. I know the hub thing is strange but it worked for me when my pc does not detect the phone in fastboot. Hope it helps .

With my PC I have to open device manager, look for the device, usually has a yellow sign next to it. Right click on the device name, click update driver, click browse my computer for driver software, click let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer and pick mtp USB device. Then I read it. I hope this helps.

I use a usb hub that is very old i guess, as it uses MiniUSB. By the way with multiple computer it should work, your error is very strange, I never saw it. A thing that may work is trying to use fastboot on a Linux system (no, with VMs no). So if you can flash a pen drive with a Ubuntu ISO or any linux distro, boot linux,install fastboot and check if it detects your phone.

Try another type c cord preferable the original one. I just change the cord and everything went fine fastboot can now be detected via "fastboot devices".
