Moreover, if you are flashing multiple files, then there could e a need to reboot your device to Fastboot Mode between subsequent flashes. While you could manually do so via hardware key combinations but a slight movement in doing so might result in the device’s Fastboot connection breaking with the PC. Likewise, the lack of a universal method to get this job done also makes the matter worse [different devices require a device key combination to boot to Fastboot]. Not to mention the fact that the entire process could prove to be quite cumbersome, especially if you are to carry out this task multiple times. For example, when flashing a Motorola stock firmware, you might have to reboot your device to Bootloader after every couple of files being flashed. So owing to all these scenarios, the best bet is to force reboot your device to Fastboot Mode using Fastboot Commands. So without further ado, let’s check out this could be carried out.
