[Q] "adb error: device not found" after format /system - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys
I did a terrible mistake. Instead of just normally resetting the phone to factory settings in CWM after unlocking it, my finger slipped to the "format /system" option.
This happened before, but then I just sideloaded the rom and everything was ok. Oddly enough, this doesnt work anymore.
Whenever I want to push something to my phone using adb, I get the error that the device was not found and I cannot do anything to access the phone (when entering the command "adb devices" for example, no device shows up). I installed every driver I can think of, I installed all the packages in the sdk manager and now I dont know what to do.
I know that the debug mode is required, but since theres no OS anymore, I really ran out of ideas.
Please help me! :crying:
PS: additional information:
- HTC One m7 (unlocked)
- Clockwerkmod Recovery
- Windows 8
- Hasoon2000's all in one kit
EDIT: I found this site that recommends flashing via fastboot. (blog.syedgakbar.com/2013/02/01/android-installing-system-images-using-flashboot/)
where do I find these images?

My G1 is stuffed, but not bricked. Mount from Recovery? Wave invites for help.

Ok. So yesterday night I was trying to give my G1 a new ROM. I wasn't really concentrating. I was tired. I've done it successfully before. I was following the instructions on Cyanogen Wiki for phones already with custom SPL and OTA.
Something screwed up, I did the firstROM a while ago so it probably wasn't the right one. Maybe it needed deathspl.
Regardless, it is now stuck on the T-Mobile G1 screen (and its stuck, I've left it for an entire night: still stuck) . I can take out the battery and boot into recovery mode. So at this point I basically need to mount my SD through USB (i dont have adapter) so I can start from scratch with SPLs, Radios and Images. This is the problem.
I've read you can do it by pressing Alt+X, going into console/terminal and type some commands in. I press Alt+X but nothing happens. I'll tell you what happens when I do other things:
---------
Alt+S= E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (Invalid argument)
Can't mount sdcard
Alt+A= <<same thing except for last line:>> E:Can't mount SDCARD:
Move apps+dalvik-cache to SD: Error: run apps2sd via adb
Apply sdcard:update.zip: Can't mount sdcard
Apply sdcard:choose zip: E: CAn't mount SDCARD:
Wipe data/factory reset: Data wipe complete.
Nandroid v2.2 backup: Can't mount sdcard
Nandroid v2.2 restore: Can't mount sdcard, aborting.
Format SD : fat32+ext2+swap: Format complete!
Format SD : fat32: Format complete
Repair ext filesystem: Error : run e2fsck via adb!
Convert ext2 to ext3: Error : run upgrade_fs via adb!
Fix package uid mismatches: Error : run fix_permissions via adb!
-----------
Alrighty. So its royally stuffed up.
Please help! I'm telling myself its not bricked, because it has small but definite programs and calculations running.
It mentions adb, and I have used it in the past to skip through a tutorial (back when you couldn't skip through it) because it needed internet connection and at the time I didnt have data transfer on my SIM, but I did have Wireless. How exactly I did this escapes. Do I need to download anything?
I have no idea if this helps, but I was trying to think of a sort of prize for anybody to help and I have Google Wave invites. Whether thats a big deal or not, I have no idea.
Please help!
Well you can assure yourself that you are not bricked.
First check your SPL and Radio.
If they are:
SPL=1.33.2005
Radio=2.26.19.26I
then your good in that area.
you just need to wipe everything and retry the ROM.
If not then you might want to get the latest stuff and try again that way.
Thanks
Thanks.
But how do I check?
I can't get into the proper Android OS, the three states my phone can be in are:
Off
Stuck on T-Mobile Screen
Recovery Mode
Also, how can I get some new stuff on my SD card if I the only things I have are: the phone described above (i.e. the only workable state being recovery mode), an SD card and a USB cable.
Whats your email so I can send you an invite if you want it?

To see you SPL and Radio do this:
Turn off phone
Hold Home and End Call buttons.
If you see:
Hboot-1.33.2005 or something like that then that means that you have the latest SPL
Radio-2.22.19.26I then you have the latest Radio too.
First we need to check to see what your SPL and radio is before you try to do anything that involves flashing ROMs
What recovery image do you have?
Can't see it
When I press Home + End Call I can see is:
Android System Recovery:
<the options I described before, with their errors>
The above is in green font, the background is black with an HTC logo, at the very bottom is white font that says this:
Build: RAv1.2.1G
Sorry for not replying as fast as could. I mega-ly appreciate this so I'll try to be more vigilant.
I'll look around for other key combos to get some more info.

Well thats atleast one step we've bypassed. Stay with me here.
Alrighty so I know the Radio and SPL, and apparently they are up to date.
What next?
From your above post, it seems your SDcard is not being read by your phone. Not sure what the issue is there.
But, if you can get it recognized by the phone, try the following:
It seems you have ADB set up, you may be in luck.
Connect the USB cable in recovery and type these commands on cmd prompt in Windows:
adb shell
ums_enable
This should mount your phone to your PC.
You can now move in necessary files to save your phone.
I suggest doing a FULL WIPE, then reflashing a ROM such as CM 4.2.14.1 (latest build).
If that doesn't work, you may have to start over by flashing DREAIMG.nbh (RC29), flashing latest radio, flashing SPL, DON'T REBOOT, then flashing rom RIGHT AFTER SPL.
Good luck, keep us updated.
Nearly There
Ok. So I got adb up and running.
I ran adb devices and it was blank so I followed part 2 of:
<do google search for "the unlockr hot to set up adb usb drivers for android devices>
After reinstalling drivers via USBDeview:
My Device Manager is now registering my phone as the Android Composite ADB Interface, but when I run adb devices it still has a blank list.
Keep in mind I am in recovery mode.
When I try and run adb shell, it errors with 'no device found' so I need to do this devices command successfully.
Does anybody know whats happening?

Try running it while the Phone is on instead of recovery.
Say run terminal and post the output of:
cat /proc/cmdline
By the way you can still flash images using fastboot mode.
Its stuck
When you say 'on' do you mean on the T-Mobile Screen?
Thanks
Thanks again guys this is really good and I think we're getting close. OK. Here's an update as of right now:
My computer recognizes my phone in T-Mobile Logo, Fastboot (or thing with three skating Androids, Home and Back), and Recovery.
When I cd to my tools folder I can run adb commands but when I run 'adb devices' it shows:
List of devices attached
....
No serial number or anything. I've reinstalled the drivers.
When I do the command 'run terminal' it says 'run' is not recognized as an internal or external command blah blah
This is the same with 'cat /proc/cmdline'
I still can't run terminal with Alt+X in recovery mode (at least, nothing happens)
My phone cannot turn 'on'. It is stuck on the T-Mobile Screen.
What should I do?

Normal boot.
That doesn't work.
How can I see it in adb devices?
Argh!
Any ideas just throw them out there.
Have you tried another sdcard? That's the first thing I would try if the phone is complaining about not being able to read it.
Check ur drivers.
sounds like u need to update them.

[Q] Device not found on ADB | TWRP Sideload and CWM mount problems

My friend has HTC One. He wiped all the data on SD including the ROM files and One is not booting right now. It's rooted and has Trickdroid's 4.2.2 based ROM.
We tried lots of things so far;
- Pushing files via ADB
Trying ADB, it says device not found, no matter we did we couldn't manage the pc to recognize the phone.
- Mounting SD via CWM
I have HOX, when I enter CWM I can see the option to mount the SD but on One there's no line like this.
- Activating Sideload on TWRP
We also flashed TWRP and tried to use Sideload feature but when we tried to activate it, it says something like "unable to mount .."
- Flashing the RUU
And lastly we tried to flash the RUU, we checked the CID and it says o2___001 and there's no RUU for it.
I just saw that One could be S-OFF and got Super-CID, but to do that again, I have to pull and push some files via ADB so we stuck here.
Could you plese help me on this?
Try cwm recovery it has sideload feature I was in a similar situation once before and it worked using cwm recovery
Also. If you want to try use adb again, try to plug in your device and then wait for few seconds before running a push command. It worth mentioning that once adb fail one time, it is not going to work again by repeating the same push command. Once it fails run this command: adb kill-server
This command will stop the previous failed process after killing the server then try to push again

We tried a different computer and solved the ADB problem, then I did just like you told and it's OK now.
Thank you.
You're welcome. glad it's all all OK for you
Boot TWRP, then select “Mount”, then select only “Data” and connect your HTC One to your computer.
Considering you have adb.exe (Windows, part of fastboot.zip) or on Linux:
cd Downloads\ROM.zip
adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/
Replace ROM.zip with the ROM filename you copied earlier to Downloads (or any other) folder, then install the ROM.
It should be nearly same running CWM recovery. Hope that helps.
Same problem as you --> fixed
I was able to recognize my device in device manager when using fastboot, but wasnt able to recognize the device as soon as I switched to recovery mode.
I found this universal driver which would recognize both: download.clockworkmod.[com]/test/UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi
(remove brackets from [.com] above)
I was now able to use adb sideload to transfer the .zip to my sd card and flash my new rom.
Hope this helps anyone else.
If you found that adb worked from a different machine, you might check whether you had any tethering drivers installed (eg EasyTether) on the machine that was not able to see the phone via adb. I found that they interfered with adb's operation on my Macbook previously; it was maddening.

Am having the same issues, have tried everything I can think off and everything google has suggested. I'm beyond stuck any and all help would be greatly appreciated
my bad exp
I don't know if that help anyone but I had the problem "device not found" when I was trying to side load with HTC AIO KIT.
I removed all my drivers for htc from the control panel and installed only the htc driver (binary100100.googlecode.[com]/files/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe). Then the adb started to work. (after the htc drivers install you need to restart your OS)
When I installed new ROM and reboot the device it showed me the screen with the developer's rom. I thought that I failed and flashed new rom then suddenly the new ROM after one minute started to work. So looks like that I should wait long enough for the first and may be it would also starts to work.
Was he by chance having issues charging his phone before he wiped it?
Myself and my brother both a had issues with the USB port going. Couldn't charge while phone was on. PC wouldn't pick it up so no adb. However was able to pickup fastboot and charge while in fastboot mode.
If that's the case you could try running a zip in oemRUU mode just to get an os on there.
Is he soff?

Once I removed all the extra crap from control panel and used the latest I was able to do adb devices successfully from bootloader / recovery.
I was just having the same problem on the new LG G2 (D803). It was perplexing because the computer *bleeped* every time it attached so I knew that it saw something. Based on the tips here I went to the Device Manager and sure enough there it was... I reinstalled the drivers inside device manager and then I got an easy adb hit on the phone... hmmm :fingers-crossed:

This worked for my Nexus 4 and TWRP installed. Running the ADB sideload commad from TWRP did not, and just trying to push or sideload from command prompt on PC (Win 8) did not. I had drivers for Nexus 4 recognition installed previously from Nexus Root Toolkit which worked when the Nexus 4 was booted into system, but did not recognize it when wiped and/or in recovery mode. Loading these drivers the Nexus 4 was recognized in recovery mode, and I was able to push the ROM and install using TWRP.
Thanks much!

[Q] ADB Sideload isn't working for me!

Hello there
I am stuck without a ROM and without a ROM zip file anywhere on the internal device that I can use TWRP to install. The only option I have at the moment is to use adb sideload, and this is my first time doing so.
I downloaded this:
adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522
Anyway, I am trying to follow this tutorial but it's not working out for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317986
It looks simple and easy, but this is the problem I am facing:
"I changed directories to where the adb.exe is (inside platform-tools) and ADB Sideload is already started in TWRP. However, whenever I type "adb devices" it only says "List of attached devices" and nothing under it. Whenever I try flashing the ROM, it says error: device not found. What am I doing wrong here? I even changed the name of the ROM to rom.zip to make it shorter as per a suggestion in the first page of the thread, but that didn't work either."
Can someone please help me and tell me how to make it work? I have been without a ROM for hours waiting for the SDK to download this my internet is pretty slow. Thanks a lot!
Okay now I realize my device isn't actually recognized, although it works fine with fastboot usb.
What do I do? I tried having windows automatically search for drivers but it didn't find anything.
Okay after doing some more reading I realized I never actually opened SDK Manager, and when I try, it just opens a black command prompt window and then shuts down. I then came across this article and realized I need Java JDK drivers before I can actually run SDK Manager and then follow the rest of the tutorial. Maybe that is the problem??
You need HTC drivers , if you didn't install HTC SYNC, open "virtual CD", that appears at connection of phone with PC and you will see folders with drivers for different OS.
Thanks, mate. I already fixed the problem but I forgot to update this thread. You are right, I did not have the proper drivers, so I downloaded and installed HTC Sync Manager and then everything went great.
I had the same problem last night trying to flash my first rom ever, but thankfully i had a usb otg cable that I used to put the rom zip in my flash drive and flash it into the phone

[TOOL] Ouya SuperScript - One click CWM, Root, Xposed & Play Store for Windows

Ouya SuperScript
By TehCrucible
v0.1​
INTRODUCTION
So I originally wrote this batch script to simplify and combine some of the most frequently used tweaks on the forums for my own sake, to speed up my tinkering with the Ouya but I've decided to clean it up and upload it in case anyone else wants to use it.
This script is designed as a "one-click" modification tool for a stock Ouya on the latest firmware. Please read this guide carefully.
I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE OR DATA LOSS. This script is built on the work of many others much smarter than myself and be sure to check the credits.
SO WHAT DOES IT DO?
In a nutshell:
- Install Clockworkmod Recovery
- Root Ouya
- Install Xposed Framework
- Install Google Play Store
WHAT DO I NEED?
- A Windows PC. I have included drivers for both x86 and x64.
- A Micro USB cable.
INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
1. Update your Ouya to latest stock firmware
2. Install ADB drivers
3. Run the script
4. Play some games!
There's a more detailed step-by-step in the included README.txt file.
KNOWN ISSUES
- None

Thanks a lot for this. A lo of people have been asking about an automated method to get the play store running on the OUYA...
Great works. I just think of root my ouya....
A quick update:
It's working. I'm on the latest firmaware which is JZO54L-OUYA, kernel version 3.1.10-g780994a. Completely stock, but I had already rooted my OUYA.
Anyway, I enabled the Wireless ADB which will instantly show you the ip and port, installed the drivers for 64bit. Then open CMD and type: adb connect "iport"
Then I ran the superscript and everything went fine.
Hope this helps. I didn't even have to connect with a wire.
But I guess if you wanna install the CWM recovery you should be connected with a wire...
Hello guys!
I can see the Ouya in Device list in Control panel but I can't connect it in SuperScript. Any ideas?

Did you install the drivers right? If yes, then you should open the folder where you extracted your files and right click while holding shift then choose open CMD here. Then write: adb devices
If your device is there, it will give you an output of the IMEI and name of device
From there, you can then tell us what the error is and hopefully we can resolve it...

that happened to me yesterday, but I overcame it by have my computer plugged into the Ouya then reboot the ouya and as soon as the computer recognized it started the script and it worked.
but I have an issue too
So I can run the script everything works except getting the recovery installed. the command prompt acts like it successfully installed the recovery then the Ouya proceeds to reboot into recovery mode. When that happens I get this menu? Nothing happens when I push any buttons on my keyboard. This doesn't look like a custom recovery.
I have tried this many times, did a factory reset and started fresh however even after updating the device driver it doesnt recognize the ouya....

No it doesn't :angel:.
I think I had the recovery installed when I first got the device a long time ago and I used the manual method in this thread, but I'm not sure that it works any more. Also do you have a wired or wireless keyboard? By the way only the Bluetooth keyboard doesn't work. May be if you can install the recovery from that thread, then you can proceed to the next step. One last thing, I don't think you will need the recovery except if you want to install CM or something. Other than that, I never used it before.

Which version of windows are you on? Is it Windows 8 or 8.1? Do you know how to disable driver signature verification?
Also, what does it say when you connect? Just nothing, or not recognized or what? You can try the adb wireless, go into settings/development on the ouya and activate it. Then open CMD from the extracted folder and type adb connect "ip : port" then check by typing "adb devices". Let us know what happens after that.

I have tried both from my windows 7 computer and 8.1 laptop. It showed up just as you said "missing driver", sent it to the drivers part of SS to get the driver, it said it installed but when i run the SS and hit option "1" it comes up blank...

I think I had the recovery installed when I first got the device a long time ago and I used the manual method in this thread, but I'm not sure that it works any more. Also do you have a wired or wireless keyboard? By the way only the Bluetooth keyboard doesn't work. May be if you can install the recovery from that thread, then you can proceed to the next step. One last thing, I don't think you will need the recovery except if you want to install CM or something. Other than that, I never used it before.
I am having the same issue but not only with this method, I have also tried to install CWM with oneclicks auto and manual method to no avail.....
any suggestions?

I can see from your posts that you tried everything and I'm so sorry that I'm just a user and not a developer or something. May be you can try sideloading terminal and try CWM manually (if you haven't already) or sideload ROM Toolbox and try the flash recovery option.
That's all I got. But if I were you, I won't bother about the CWM at all. It's useless.
As for the Play store, try the mod that I attached in my reply and let me know if this one works for you...
Unfortunately the link is not working. Is it possible to update it, please?
What I do if my micro usb is broken :/. I only have wireless adb
.. nice .. now my ouya will run again .. thanks
I already tried everything but I can't make this work... I installed every single drive in every single way.
The best screenshot of the whole situation is on attachment. SuperScript simply doesn't recognize OUYA with default drivers, neither provided drivers (or any of its variation like "composite adb" or something like that. The "List of devices attached" always return empty, even when provided drivers installed (signature deactivated and everything else). As readme says, when SuperScript doesn't recognize, it returns "error: device not found" every time that I try something...
This SuperScript seems great to start things on my my untouched and default OUYA... but I'm honestly out of options.

Problem solved. It is Windows Drivers issue. S-Config did a great job explaining how you should do this HERE. I hope it helps people who got stuck. SuperScript did work, I did installed CWM but I was not able to navigate (neither thru bluetooth usb full keyboard). I'm going to try to figure out what I'm missing later. As I can see, S-Config's website is fully updated... I do highly recommend read there who is going to do anything with ouya.

ADB/Fastboot problems with Open Beta 5 (7.1.1)

I have had a very eventful few hours and I'll do my best to explain. Earlier this morning I was rooted, twrp installed and running FreedomOS. I had this bright idea of flashing a file I had downloaded from the OP3T website. It was a firmware file (either the first option, the option before OB5). Everything was running smoothly until I got home and tried using fastboot at which point it just sticks on waiting for device. All normal options are checked (adb files installed, debugging selected, the works), but now I can not use fastboot what so ever. I did at one point sideload an OTA using adb sideload (filename.zip). I have tried just about every adb option I can think of to include: 15 second ADB and minimal adb and fastboot. I even deleted the OP3T drivers from my computer, reinstalled those drivers. I followed an article through technobuzz: http://www.technobuzz.net/download-oneplus-3-usb-drivers/
http://www.technobuzz.net/setup-adb-fastboot-drivers-for-nexus-oneplus-samsung-or-any-android/
I have been using adb and fastboot with no issues up til Open Beta 5 and now my PC and another PC is giving me crap and it's iritating the %%%k out of me.
adb reboot recovery works, adb devices work - showing that the device is connected. I checked the device manager and only found the portable devices. It's like my computer somehow magically deleted the adb driver and will not allow me to install an adb driver. I have no logs to check out....15 second adb was suppose to place a log file on the desktop, but it doesnt....it wont install
Here's what Im on:
OB5 (7.1.1) with stock recovery. I can not use fastboot commands. Here are some pics
http://imgur.com/a/y7iFE
http://imgur.com/a/SVVMg You should see something that says, "Android Device or ADB", but nothing - just MTP
http://imgur.com/a/62msw
I'm using windows 10, device signature is off
Essentially I just want to be able to fastboot flash TWRP and gain root.
Has anyone else experienced any kind of issues with OB5 and adb/fastboot
Btw I had the entire Android SDK installed on another computer and that did not work either....Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I'm talking about you @redpoint73, lol
Oh boy, I've been summoned! I have to say, I'm not anywhere near knowledgeable yet with the 3T as I was with my past devices. But I'll try.
I assume you are properly trying fastboot commands while in fastboot mode (not in OS or recovery)? I assume so, since you already said it worked fine before the update. But it never hurts to ask the obvious, as a lot of folks forget that adb and fastboot work a bit differently (fastboot only in fastboot mode, adb only in OS or recovery - debugging only needed for adb, not fastboot).
Do you have the OP3T drivers installed? These are the files that Windows always opens whenever I connect the phone (while booted into phone OS), select File Transfer, and it gives the option to open the folder. Although I don't think you even need the drivers for fastboot to work. I unlocked the bootloader and flashed TWRP before I ever installed the OnePlus drivers. The generic fastboot drivers worked fine. But it's worth a try, to install the OP drivers.
I don't even know where to begin or how to reply to what you just said @redpoint73. I haven't attempted to use adb/fastboot commands since yesterday, so i have no idea as to rather it will work or not. If you have teamviewer, I can give your access to a backdoor to show you as it's easier to show then explain. Have you ever noticed when you download a zip from here: http://downloads.oneplus.net/devices/oneplus-3t/#title-section
it never saves the file as Open Beta 3, 4, or etc. It saves the file as this long-named file.zip rather than being something easy to understand. Im able to understand it now, but a few moments ago I wasnt. I "have" downloaded the OP3T drivers on multiple occasions with no success to to fastboot only adb. My computer recognizes the device though. When I go into device manager checking things out. I will have an option that says, "portable devices". when you select that option you'll go across through some contextual menus where you wind up seeing MTP. You should see MTP if you successfully installed the OP3T devices, but at the same time you should be able to see an option that says something along the lines of ADB or Android Debug Bridge, vice versa. My computer does not say that and I have no idea where to go from here. I have no logs or anything helping me out, so it's like finding a needle in the haystack. I do know that I have all of the prereq's such as debugging selected from developers options within the phone, device signature turned off through Windows, adb/fastboot installed, OP3T drivers installed - you know the works you usually need in order to get everything working right. What I might end up doing is just reformatting my entire laptop, installing a fresh copy of windows, fresh copy of adb/fastboot and going from there. My bootloader is unlocked and has been since I've owned the device. As of right now I'm on OB5 with stock recovery. Yesterday I tried three times to sideload one of the downloads from this site: http://downloads.oneplus.net/devices/oneplus-3t/#title-section
. However, my phone would end up saying, "installation failed" when Im in sideload mode. I'm thinking that might have something to do with a botched download from the OP3T server.
Looks like you found your solution here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72046709&postcount=20
Fastboot/adb is usually as simple as reinstalling drivers, etc. as opposed to reformat the PC as you were considering. Reinstalling adb/fastboot was a good idea also, as I don't think I would have thought of that (although it makes perfect sense). So good job working it out!
