Guest joeg6217 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 I've got a macbook pro and am trying to update baseband so can use 1.5.3. Put the phone into fastboot mode and it is detected when connected to macbook, but when typing 'fastboot flash amss amss.mbn' into terminal, nothing happens. Any ideas. ps. currently on 1.1.1.

Guest joeg6217 Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 Thanks for the help so far. ADB seems to be working. When I type 'ADB devices' into terminal it shows the number of my Streak. However when I type 'fastboot devices' (after putting the phone in fastboot mode with white screen etc.), I get '-bash: fastboot: command not found'?

However when I type 'fastboot devices' (after putting the phone in fastboot mode with white screen etc.), I get '-bash: fastboot: command not found'? Is fastboot in the folder you're running the command from in the terminal? You will need either the android sdk which comes with fastboot, or one of the all-in-one versions. If you've installed the clockword mod I think there is a packages fastboot in there you can use. Also, I think you may need to include the 0x413 (or whatever it is) when running fastboot from a mac.
Guest joeg6217 Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 At the last hurdle (I think/hope). ADB recognises device (ie. typing 'ADB devices' into terminal brings up number), but when I type in 'fastboot devices' just get <waiting for device> reply which hangs. Why? ps. Phone is in fastboot mode.
Guest joeg6217 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 Finally sorted it. In the instructions for flashing using a mac it says to use fastboot flash amss amss.mbn. This didn't work. However using the windows instructions, fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn, did. Weird. Anyway, sorted now and 1.6 looks really good. Thanks for the help
