@Dietrich nice one 👍🏻 i've installed linux mint on the x45. everything works fine.

Good

Kinda want to refund and get this now

but would be bad

so, I can get fastboot to detect the device once, but I check it again and it's lost the fastboot device connection

now I'm getting this

At this point I would try out a VM and shove the USB right too it

You sure this image isn't corrupted?

Try an older version if possible

Nothing else?

Reboot the PC phone and plug out the cable Is guess

gonna try using my laptop

Windows users will need proper drivers installed on their computer. You can try the simple FWUL adb/fastboot ISO or the Naked ADB drivers or the Universal ADB drivers if you don't already have a working driver installed

🙃

I stick to Universal ADB and haven't had issues ever

Btw the most nuclear option would be to factory reset the phone and restart your entire installation from scratch carefully like gentoo
Goodnight sweet prince

but i shouldn't have to

Welcome to Mi 101

You need to install Andorid development environment IDE (recommended 4GB)

jk, but yeah Google u'know.

Just follow that wiki and some Google

>botnet

Did you know that Google released these drivers seperately since ages ago (2017) so kind of old news

https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip

includes adb and fastboot

Universal ADB worked on my Mi5 and redmi 3 no issues

yeah but that just sounds retarded
