Help needed, device wiped - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was changing rom according to instructions and accidentally I have deleted my rom.zip. Now I'm stuck in recovery with nothing to flash and no idea how to push rom.zip to phone memory. I have otg cable. Can anyone come up with a solution or direction to relevant topic ?

Easiest thing would be to put your ROM.zip on your usb and plug it into your phone before entering recovery. I'm not sure if Cwm classic supports otg but Cwm touch and twrp do

I think it's called external_sd in recovery. Just flash it from there.

Apologies, I've just tried it myself in CWM Touch 6.0.3.1...
Go to Bootloader screen and plug in your cable
enter recovery
install zip from sdcard
choose zip from external sdcard
Works for me...
Sometimes if it doesn't mount I go to 'backup and restore' -> restore from external sdcard -> Go Back -> Go Back -> try it flashing from 'install zip from sdcard' again. (Although I have a nandroid backup on my usb so that may not work for you)

yeah...
put your rom.zip in your mini-sdk folder
put your phone to the bootloader screen -> select fastboot -> it should now say 'fastboot usb'
hold shift and right-click on your mini-sdk folder -> Open Command Window Here
command: fastboot devices
if your device shows, enter recovery
command: adb devices
if your device shows,
adb push name_of_your_rom.zip /sdcard be sure to put a space before /sdcard. be sure the 'name_of_your_rom' is named exactly the same as your rom.zip
After a while your rom should be on your sdcard, just flash it as normal.

Just did as you said. The tricky part is with opening command line in the specified folder, I would never have guess that you have to hold shift.
Now waiting for the file being moved to sdcard, after push command the _ is blinking as the file is being send right. File is sent XXX bytes in 222.sec
I tried to instal from the sdcard the recovery reboots itself when I press instal from sdcard

ok, can you select install zip from sideload or does it crash?
if you can, select it and command in cmd (from your mini-sdk folder)
adb sideload name_of_your_rom.zip
once its finished sideloading it should begin install on your phone automatically
If you can't do that, try re-flashing your recovery and try everything again.
fastboot flash recovery name_of_your_recovery.img
(in 'fastboot usb') (name_of_your_recovery.img should be in mini-sdk folder)

Just hold down volume down + power button until it reboots. You may have to do it under a bright light. Keep holding them until your fastboot/hboot screen appears.
Try re-flashing your recovery as I said above and try again - if that doesn't work then I'm afraid I'm out of ideas
What ROM are you trying to install??

I don't think USB can be mounted, you could use adb sideload instead if you completely wiped the internal storage but I'd wait till you boot the phone and then do it instead. Remember to make a nandroid backup you're safe to factory reset in recovery if that's what you meant, as that doesn't touch system or your internal sdcard.

thanks could i be cheeky could you tell me how to use adb sideload as ive never used it before thanks:good:
No sorry.
Jokes, so in recovery press 'install zip from sideload' then plug your phone into your PC. Now put your rom zip (rename to rom.zip) in the same folder as your adb file, and put this folder on your desktop. Now use
Code:
cd Desktop
then
Code:
cd 'NAME OF FOLDER'
now use
Code:
adb devices
and check your serial number appears.
Now use
Code:
abd sideload rom.zip
and it will transfer and install

Ok, no it doesn't but first we need to find out why adb isn't working :/
Grab the driver from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=963042&d=1332595157
Extract the drivers
Now go to Start menu and right click on my computer and then click manage.
Now go to device manager and there you should see your connected One listed as being without a driver.
Right click on that entry and select 'update driver'
Now tell it that you have the driver on local disk and then browse to the folder you extracted.
Update your driver.
Disconnect and reconnect the device and try ADBing again.
Should work.

"just calm the fu** down", that is what I said to myself when it happened to me, because i panicked a little too...
you should follow the guide in the link that redbull123 provide
but if your fear is taking over you, there are two other and "for me" easily ways to install a rom if you fuc*... wiped your internal sd
1 - install HTC drivers as the provided link (above), then use DROID EXPLORER (look for it in google and install it) to copy a rom into your ONE, then flash!!!
2 - get a OTG cable copy the rom into usb and flash the rom using the usb memory with the OTG cable.
I remembere when i wiped my internal SD, it was because a skin for the recovery TWRP that changes the buttons, so I accidentally deleted my internal SD lol

don't worry about hboot.
try selecting Advanced -> ADB Sideload in TWRP then in cmd command
adb sideload name_of_your_rom.zip
(make sure the rom is in the same folder as your adb/fastboot drivers and your running the cmd window from that folder also)
Hold shift and right click on your folder then click 'Open Command Window here' before you command anything.

Does adb recognize your fone?
Cmd: "adb devices" it should display your fone, while being in recovery.
If not, try and flash latest twrp again, due to fastboot.
Sideload worked fine for me, as I formatted my sdcard..

Device stuck on black HBOOT with no custom recovery and fastboot is not working

I am in a massive dilemma at the moment. I recently upgraded my phone using a stock RUU and was unhappy with the way it was working, due to no mobile data. I have been trying to apply a new RUU to my phone but it is not working, I have recently found out that my bootloader is black and that fastboot does not work at all.
When I request a device list in CMD nothing happens and CMD just prints a new directory line, and whenever I issue a command it just says <waiting for device>. I understand that without fastboot I will be unable to install a custom recovery and therefore unable to install a new ROM. I have tried my laptop and a desktop computer and they both do not work, so I'm guessing it is the phone even though I am able to send adb commands.
Any help is appreciated.

make sure that you have the latest driver installed and usb debuging has to be on (settings/devoloper options)
---------- Post added at 10:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 PM ----------
you said that fastboot isn't working at all so you aren't able to flash for example a custom recovery
you can use adb commands to enter into recovery and to copy a rom zip to your device
then you should be able to flash the custom rom
perhaps this can fix your problem

Yeah just really confused as to why my computer recognizes the phone while on android o/s but not on bootloader.
Another thing to note is that fact that when I enter FASTBOOT it does not display FASTBOOT USB straight away. I have to press either one of the volume keys and then it switches to FASTBOOT USB.
Here are some pictures of the error message I get in Windows.

Another update, while checking through the settings on my phone I realised that there are two settings for USB debugging. One is for HTC Sync Manager and the other is from Developer options, shown below;

I then checked Device Manager to see if their were two devices, and their were.

So I'm guessing that when I boot to FASTBOOT it is trying to read the CD Drive and it is unable to read it. I have tried to deselect the HTC Sync debugging but as soon as I do the developer debugging also deselects and vice versa.

Another update, while checking through the settings on my phone I realised that there are two settings for USB debugging. One is for HTC Sync Manager and the other is from Developer options, shown below;

When I checked My Computer I found that I had two devices connected, HTC One and CD Drive (E

I then checked Device Manager to see if their were two devices, and their were.

So I'm guessing that when I boot to FASTBOOT it is trying to read the CD Drive and it is unable to read it. I have tried to deselect the HTC Sync debugging but as soon as I do the developer debugging also deselects and vice versa.

I am in a massive dilemma at the moment. I recently upgraded my phone using a stock RUU and was unhappy with the way it was working, due to no mobile data. I have been trying to apply a new RUU to my phone but it is not working, I have recently found out that my bootloader is black and that fastboot does not work at all.
Any help is appreciated.

Your phone appears to be stuck bewteen two firmwares hense the os showing up in red in your bootloader.
would I be correct in assuming you did the following commands:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip <name of firmware>.zip
fastboot reboot
as opposed to:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip <name of firmware>.zip
fastboot flash zip <name of firmware>.zip <- yes it has to be done twice, the first one will report failed, the second should succeed.
fastboot reboot

If your asking about how I installed my current ROM, I downloaded a RUU exe and installed from my desktop.
If your asking me to try those steps now, I can't. FASTBOOT does not respond.

read the instructions - realize that you need to flash with TWRP recovery not ClockWorkMod - flash TWRP 2.6.3.3 - enter recovery and wipe - push the ROM again - flash again.

oh no, well here goes, your going to need it, especially as your in a bootloop.
so download and install this, everything including the drivers, the file must be run as administrator: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
then download this img file and put it in the same folder as fastboot and adb that you just installed: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
open a command windows (CMD window) in that same folder, to do this, hold down control & shift & right mouse click on any white area in that folder and select open command window here.
with your phone plugged into the computer and in fastboot USB mode type the following command one at a time
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
let me know when that's done

that was quick, enter recovery, and select wipe, swipe to factory reset then I always go into advanced wipe too and select everything except internal storage.
once done, go back to the main screen of recovery, main screen only, no sub menu's.
download the rom again and put in the same folder as adb and fastboot again.
then with your phone plugged in, rom in the folder, and a command window open type:
Code:
adb push (name-of-rom).zip /sdcard/
takes a while and will look unresponsive but the cmd window will let you know when its done.
once done, unplug your phone, and slect install, select the rom from the list and swipe to begin the install.

So in the command window, I put the full name of the rom download file?

yeah, easiest way is once you've downloaded the rom, just change the file name to rom.zip then move it to the adb and fastboot folder, then adb push rom.zip /sdcard/

And also, since I already wiped, do I have to do it again in Aroma Installer, or can I continue without wipe?

its only a wipe of data, so I would just go ahead and wipe just to be sure.

that happens sometimes, just hold the power button down till the lights on the bottom flash 10 - 15 times, the phone will reset and pick up where it left off and start booting.

your welcome, and learned adb and fastboot along the way too, better than using compiled apps to flash things.
same problem, but different result...

Hi Seanie,
I followed the instructions on this post, as I was having a similar problem. I installed the Apolo7 v4.1 rom on my phone using CWM instead of TWRP and entered a boot loop. After following your instructions for installing ADB and flashing TWRP, when I try to enter recovery to perform a wipe it won't and goes back into a boot loop wherein it is perpetually trying to enter recovery. Any suggestions?
thanks!

Seanie, I found your advice very useful. Thanks for taking the time to walk us noobs through. In my case it didn't work at first but after I found the right version of TWRP for my HTC One it worked fine. Thanks!

Adb Sideload

Hello all,
I made a big mistake and wiped my Sd card on my rooted, Unlocked M7. I was able to get recovery(TWRP) back on but for the life of me cannot sideload a Rom on it? At the moment it has no OS. So that means I cannot open usb debugging so I could manually place the ViperOne rom back on the SD. I've never sideloaded anything but after watching many youtube videos and failing ( cannot read ROM.zip) its driving me nuts. Is there maybe an easier way? Maybe something else I can try?
I have tried to load for both desktop and platform tools( both I can see my device).

This error is usually caused by the file being in the wrong location. Make sure "ROM.zip" is in the same folder where you have adb and fastboot on your computer.

TWRP 2.6.4.0 also include mtp drivers so you can see your device storage on your ocmputer when booted in recovery mode.

Like alray said flash TWRP 2.8.4.0 and the phone will be seen in windows and you can just copy the file to the phone and flash it
I already had a "Install recovery v1.2" in my downloads so I tried this because I was unsuccessful with all the other attempts and low and behold it worked. although its an older version of TWRP (2.6.3). would it make a difference not having the latest? now that recovery is there I was hoping to push a ROM then update the recovery through root manager.
I just read alray's last line about the mtp drivers. OK, I will first get my folders working better, upgrade to a newer version TWRP and then push a rom. Is there a difference in "Fastboot adb sideload flash ViperOne.zip" and "
" adb sideload push ViperOne.zip"? Two video's used 2 different commands.

you don't need adb at all if you load TWRP 2.8.4.0 you just copy the file in windows like to a flash drive

If you are going to update twrp to 2.8.4.0, you will not need to push or sideload the rom, just copy it to your phone storage using the windows explorer. Navigate to "my computer --> One --> Internal storage" and copy your rom there.

These 2 commands means nothing. :laugh: SO no, there is no difference between these 2 commands, both will fail lol
if you want to use adb push:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard
if you want to sideload:
Code:
adb sideload name_of_rom.zip
But like i said, you don't need to use these commands to get your rom on your phone if you are gonna update twrp to 2.8.4.0.
download twrp 2.8.4.0, save it to the same folder where you have adb and fastboot installed on your computer. Open a command prompt from that folder, boot your phone in bootloader/fastboot usb mode.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then boot in recovery mode
you'll now see your phone storage on your computer, copy (drag and drop) your rom.zip to your phone storage.
