Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by performing the below steps.
Fix 1: Use Official ADB Binaires
First and foremost, it is highly recommended that you use the latest and more importantly official ADB binaries provided by Google. There are already a plethora of ADB and Fastboot third-party tools, however, you should maintain social distancing from all of them and only stick with the offering from Google.
Fix 2: Install Android USB Drivers
USB Drivers are an integral part of the smartphone ecosystem. They are needed so that your PC is able to recognize the connected device. So go ahead, download, and install the android_win.inf drivers onto your Windows PC. If that doesn’t work out, then also consider installing the Android Bootloader Interface Drivers. Install both of them and then verify if they fix the fastboot FAILED (command write failed (Success)) error.
Fix 3: Use Official USB cable | USB 2.0 Port
The next two fixes are evident from their names themselves. First off, it is recommended that you use the official USB cables that came shipped with your device. If that is not possible, then use a cable that supports MTP (file transfer).
Along the same lines, you should only use the USB 2.0 Port on your PC. Using the faster 3.0 ones is known to cause quite a lot of issues, especially in the custom development domain. So try out both these tweaks and see if they fix the fastboot FAILED (command write failed (Success)) error.
Fix 4: While Flashing TWRP
If you are getting this issue when flashing the TWRP Recovery, then here are a few things that you need to try out. First off, make sure that there’s no issue with the custom recovery itself. XDA developers should be the best place for that. Refer to your device forum and read a few user’s comments, you would get a decent idea if the recovery is working or not. If it’s all well and good with the recovery, then there could be issues with your method of flashing the recovery. With the introduction of the A/B partition, flashing recovery is no longer a straightforward process. Users with devices having a recovery partition could easily flash it to that slot. But most devices now come with a boot partition, so you would first have to boot your device to TWRP and then permanently flash it. Likewise, some might even require flashing to Ramdisk. All this has been explained in our comprehensive guide, please refer to this guide to fix fastboot FAILED (command write failed (Success)) TWRP error: How to Install TWRP Recovery on Android.
