Wireless ADB and Fastboot - OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hey all. The USB port on my oneplus 8 pro has finally failed and I can only connect to it via wireless adb. I am trying to relock the bootloader so I can trade it in. I have been successful in connecting via wireless ADB but I cant send any fastboot commands. I would greatly appreciate any assistance. I am running Mac OS and android 12.

No you can't because it's a two different thing. fastboot can't be used with wireless adb.

Issue connecting to watch via ADB when in recovery mode

I've enabled adb debugging via USB on my watch. I can connect and reboot into the bootloader via ADB no problem. Once I enter recovery and select sideload via adb I run into an issue... ADB does not recognize my watch!
When the watch is just on normally and connected to my PC it shows up as Android Device>Android Composite ADB Interface. It connects to the computer as Other devices>G Watch R. Also ADB Devices shows nothing connected.
Any idea what it going on here? Any idea how to fix it?
For reference, I'm running stock everything - 5.1.1 on the watch and Bootloader version LENOKZ20m if it matters.
Thanks!

Problems Unlocking bootloader

Hi guys,
I'm having problems unlocking bootloader.
The phone enter into fastboot mode but when I type "fastboot oem unlock-go" in the cmd of windows it doesn't recognize my device.
I have installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot and I have installed ADB Driver installer too but it doesn't recognize the device.
Can anybody help me with this please?
I need to unlock it because I want to root it.
Thanks
Have you tried unplugging and replugging when the phone goes into fastboot mode?
I just got my pro 3, did the OTA to the .19 software and unlocked and rooted just today and my girlfriend's very very fresh windows 10 install.
If that doesn't work just delete the adb driver, replug the device and windows should install the same drivers I used.

problems with fastboot and adb for lenovo a3000 adb drivers installed

Hi I am Rupesh from India and I have lenovo a3000H and I am using it from past three years and I am bored with it and so I have downloaded cm 5.1.1 from your site.
I have tried a lot to root the device at first I have installed framaroot and after that I have installed superuser app which gave error as their is no su binary installed.
In order to unlock the bootloader I have installed android studio and USB drivers provided by the device vendor. When I connect the tab to Windows 8.1 system I am able to see an entry named lenovo a3000 under portable devices in device manager.
When I issue the command adb devices on command prompt of my pc I am able to see a serial number followed by the word device. When I issue the command adb reboot bootloader instead of entering into fastboot mode my tab is restarting itself after that when I issue the command fastboot devices I am unable to see no output.
Previously I have tried to backup my tab storage from PC using adb and my tab asked for confirmation but no backup was performed.
I think that fastboot is unable to detect the device.
I am unable to root my tab with using PC or without using PC.
Please suggest how to root my tab properly.
Regards,
Rupesh.
Before performing the above I have enabled USB debugging and became developer by tapping 7 times build number in about phone.

Phone stuck without os and can't access to fastboot or adb

guys I'm in a bad situation, phone is without OS and I can only access to recovery or bootloader, I have a twrp installed and I can't access to an USB otg (simple usb doesn't even blink like they are not working, If I connect an hdd it doesn't recognize it but gives it power) and I can't access to the phone as MTP or with adb devices or adb sideload. Even on bootloader mode device isn't showed when I try the command "fastboot devices" and it says "download mode = DISABLED".
so I only have access to twrp with those limitations, I need a big help, phone is with BTL unlocked and with expired warranty.
thanks in advance

Download mode=disabled is the default (normal) displayed in bootloader mode. You seem to infer that is what fastboot returned when you typed devices? MTP works in TWRP automatically when it loads. Sounds like you may have a PC driver/cable issue. When you plug the device into your PC, how is it recognized?

You are using OSX, right? Fastboot commands should start with ./ before each command. For example: ./fastboot devices, or ./fastboot flash, or ./fastboot reboot bootloader. Same applies for adb commands. If you are already familiar with flashing images, read my post below about OSX and fastboot.
Do not click into the thread because it is for the Nexus 5X new users guide.

fastboot

Hi essential phone owners, I'm hoping you are willing to help me out.. Anyway, i used adb reboot bootloader for fastboot access after I enabled OEM unlock from the developer options. The device state is LOCKED. I then typed fastboot devices and received no permissions (verify udev rules). Does that mean I'm stuck on stock?

What type of computer?
Hopefully, not using cable that came with the phone. Don't use it for flashing.
What are you trying to do?

Thanks for your questions. I am using Ubuntu 18 I believe. I have a nexus 6p also, and adb/fastboot commands worked just fine with that phone. What i would like to do successfully is to unlock the bootloader and critical partition, flash twrp, and finally be able to flash AICP/Magisk.
Edit- from computer to phone I am using the extra type C USB cable that came with the 6p. And I must note that the essential is found using command adb devices. And command adb reboot bootloader gets me to the point of fastboot.
Ubuntu ?
sudo fastboot devices
I'm using Linux Mint, so basically Ubuntu. I created a file under /etc/udev/rules.d and put this line in it:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2e17", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
(My login ID is in the plugdev group.)
I'm able to execute adb and fastboot without needing sudo.
