I dont know what happened but I rebooted my phone today and it booted into fastboot.. I cannot in any way get it to boot normally. The buttons are not being held down and I have tried to pull the battery.. I dont get it, anyone else have this issue and fixed it have an idea??
Was it stock (including recovery) or modified?
I would try to fastboot the TWRP over and then boot into that (Power & Vol+). But then... I seldom run stock.

No, it wasn't stock and I dont know what happened.. I was running the latest CM13 and rebooted this morning and it freezes up with the ASUS logo and saying "Fastboot Mode!!!" at the top... I've tried flashing twrp via fastboot but not getting anything.. I need a copy of the stock firmware with the boot system and recovery image in it but I'm having a hard time finding it.

I too had this issue. Tried lot of key combinations. Didn't work. My solution was to connect to PC and run
fastboot continue
Then it booted normally. Everything stock.
Hope this helps.

Phones boots into fastboot mode in two situations
1. Pressing vol up and power button simultaneously for rebooting
2. Your phone doesn't have recovery AND any OS installed
I guess your vol up button is constantly in pressed state.
Second situation cannot occur unless you wipe your system and recovery manually. So you are in the first situation
Your phone's vol up button is constantly in pressed state or electrically shorted may be due to water entering the case
Solution: You will have to open your phone's case and clean the area near the volume button. I guess you had opened the case/body and didn't fit it properly.

Hello,
I have a similar problem. My phone is turned off and on the fastboot mode screen. Normal keys with volume keys, recovery mode, open, restart, even if I try to reboot on this screen opens. I tried to connect and format the computer, but I do not install all the drivers and files, but computers do not see my phone. Can you find me a solution?

Update: I was able to get it recognized via fastboot and used NRT to flash back to stock under the bootloop option.
Now rooted with factory 5.0.1 !
The way I got it to recognize the tablet was to press the middle part of the volume switch (effectively pressing up AND down volume) and the power button and then the bootloader loaded and I could use fastboot but not adb. I read in another thread about pressing the middle of the sound button. Never heard of that before.
Hopefully someone can help me out.
i updated via abd using the flash all script. Now when it boots up it's stuck on the logo of flying color dots. (yes, I waited 15-20 min at least)
Anyway, now I can boot into fastbboot mode but the computer doesn't recognize it.
If I try to boot into recovery (which I think got corrupted) then I just get the android icon with a red exclamation point.
I have no way to clean anything up cause I can't communicate with it.
Edit: I'm stuck in a boot loop also. If I just let it boot it stays on the logo forever. When I try to turn it off it just reboots to the logo.
If I use the keys to boot to fastboot it just sits there and now I can't even change the option at that point and there's no way to completely shut it down!
Thanks for any assistance you might have.
Pressing both volume buttons and the power button will get you into fastboot mode. It's always the last fallback position and I've never known it to fail. I had the same with a bad flash on Tuesday when trying to solve my wifi problems.
Glad you got it sorted
Thanks.
I was getting to the bootloader screen but couldn't get the PC to see it. I always used to use power/vol down combo to boot into bootloader and didn't even know u could press both vol up and down at the same time.
Or maybe I'm imagining it all.

Hi guys,
My Yotaphone 2 is currently stuck in a boot loop (shows android logo, then black screen, repeat) after a software update. I can get to the 'Downloading...' screen via power + vol. key and so have tried adb/fastboot as suggested in other similar threads. ADB can't see the device, which I guess is probably normal since it isn't booted up, but fastboot seemingly can. I've tried flashing the TWRP recovery which seems to go through fine on the PC end but doesn't seem to do anything at all on the phone itself. Calling a fastboot reboot gets the phone back to the boot loop and power + vol. goes back to the 'Downloading...' screen.
I've also tried using the Yotaphone flashing tool to flash a full android image - this also looked like everything was operating OK on the PC end but didn't seem to change anything on the phone once the process was complete.
Is there anything I'm missing or anything else I can try? Any help/ideas much appreciated!
Cheers.

Do you have any idea what caused the bootloop? (maybe installing xposed or something?)
When you keep vol-up pressed at (not after) the moment the phone vibrates during power on, you will end up in TWRP recovery. There you can at least wipe->factory reset. Don't do this if you have stuff on your phone you'd like to keep though. (you can try to rescue/backup those by trying "adb pull <path_to_file>" when the phone is booted into TWRP)

It was caused by doing an OS update (wasn't rooted or modified), I've only since tried installing the TWRP recovery and using fastboot to flash an official image to fix the looping. Flashing TWRP appears to work according to flashboot but holding the volume up key at the vibrate on power on doesn't do anything sadly.

Maybe I should rephrase: the vol-up should already be pressed once the vibrate starts. For a timing-insensitive, fool-proof (no pun intended) way you can enable bootloader (like you did before: you get the Downloading... screen). Then keep vol-up and power pressed together, after 15 seconds the device reboots hard, keep both keys pressed until you see TWRP 'curtain' screen, then release.
Did you try to use the YotaFlasher Windows application to reinstall an official ROM and restore factory defaults? You can get it from here, also download a ROM for your region here.
Hi all, I have been using CM for a long time, but I accidentally deleted the system and data and all the partitions, now I am trying to recover and I am not able to recover. What strikes me is that I try to enter the TWRP mode, I can not, or even Download Mode, nor can I run the adb command (because the phone is off). What happens is that also my power button has problems, when I put the battery, the cell phone turns on automatically, the question that I ask is will it interfere in not booting in recovery and download? Incidentally, when I put the battery at the same time I click on the Home and Volume-, it opens the warning screen on custom Os, but when I press the volume+ button nothing happens besides restarting and flashing in the bootlogo.
Desperately I need your help.
There's not much you can do without download mode. And if the power button is the problem, then I suggest fixing it somehow.

Hello,
I installed LienageOS but could not get root working, so I tried flashing SuperSU from recovery. After this, the phone is stuck in the LienageOS boot logo.
I cannot go into recovery as the volume-up key is not working. I already changed the buttons flex cable, but seems like a board problem as it still doesn't not work. I also tried disconnecting the battery and waiting a few minutes, then reconnecting the battery, it works for other phones, but not ZF5.
Is there a way to force the phone to boot into recovery, without using the volume-up key?
Could you go to fastboot ?

No, as the volume keys don't work. if there's another method to get into fastboot I'll try it.
I was tried it
So I was trying to flash a rom on this phone for the first time, I failed miserably...
Was following instructions from this thread: [ROM][OFFICIAL] Omnirom Q for OnePlus6T [Every Sunday]
After flashing the omnirom.zip I immediately tried to reboot in recovery and ended-up in a boot loop (see attached image).
I tried multiple times to go back to fastboot mode with vol-up-power combination, it did'nt worked. Always boot back to that screen.
I tried all imaginable combinations of buttons and timing but always ened-up on that screen... exept just one time where I finally ended-up in fast boot.
I dont know how I did it!
So then I pushed TWRP, I saw that the ROM's files were in both partitions, wiped the data and rebooted and returned to that same "unlocked boot loader" screen.
I've been stuck here for 3 days now, I want to go back to fastboot mode so I can push TWRP and restore my nandroid backup.
Anybody knows how I can do this?
Try holding power, volume up and down all at the same time without any cable plugged in to shut it down then while holding the volume up button plug the USB cable that's connected to your computer in. It should boot to bootloader screen.

No worries. Glad it works as I was in the same situation before myself.
Well I'm grateful that I was able to get the device shut down without a hot dead battery. I wasn't able to get it into fastboot by the volume up and plug in. I'm thankful it's off. Do you have any other ideas Im not concerned about data at all. I just would like to get my device back up and running..
Please help me out! Thanks
