Help needed, device wiped

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??

[Q] Wiped Stock Os

So did a very stupid thing by wiping OS of stock phone before copying rom.zip to phone. My fastboot no longer has usb connection. I do have twrp recovery on phone but I am clueless how to transfer the rom's over to install. Anyone have suggestions please?

NO OS install
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2791126

It's called adb sideload... You can find it in twrp under Extras. Good Luck!

what is you hboot version and what is your computer OS version? What rom were you trying to flash?

I attached a couple of screenshots to show where i am at. My biggest issue seems to be no usb to transfer the damn files.

why fastboot no USB connection faulty cable ? Port problem ? If it's port then repair port first
If no getvar all then tell cid mid OS version + info phone displaying in fastboot mode
TWRP 2.6.3.3/4 is best 2.7 have issues still
USB otg cable is a simple cable connect USB drive to your phone
You can't use ruu
Use guru reset Rom or nandroid backup

Stock ATT Sense i Imagine

Ok fastboot usb is up . Also managed to change to Twrp 2.6.3. So now need to get otg cable. I was hoping to be able to just transfer file from Pc to phone, but cant see phone in available drives.

cdkraut said:
After wiping os the usb portion disappeared, could this be because usb debugging isn't there anymore since there is no os?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
usb debugging is only to have ADB access with the phone booted in the OS.
It looks like you have usb problem, maybe a bad usb cable, phone port or pc usb port. when your phone is in bootloader with usb cable plugged to your pc, you should see "FASTBOOT USB" in the bootloader.

if fastboot USB is running use adb sideload
Now you don't need USB otg
If sideload not working then you need usb otg

you can adb push or adb sideload a rom when your phone is booted to recovery (twrp) not directly from bootloader. You said you have flashed twrp 2.6.3 ? you mean 2.6.3.0 or 2.6.3.3 ? Always use 2.6.3.3
Also make sure your ADB is up to date (should be 1.0.31) you can check your ADB version with this command:
Code:
adb version
Now try to follow this detailed guide:
HTC ONE M7_U/M7_UL - ADB PUSH & FLASH A ROM - DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS
Prerequisites:
You need ADB and FASTBOOT on your computer, either by installing the Android SDK or Minimal ADB and FASTBOOT
You need to know how to start a fastboot/adb command prompt:
To open a command window prompt, in Windows go to Start Menu --> ''Run'' then type cmd. Change the directory to the ADB folder on your machine:
If using the default install location for the SDK:
Code:
cd C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-XXXXXXXX\sdk\platform-tools\
If using the default install location of Minimal ADB and FASTBOOT:
Code:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Or hold left shift + right click a blank space inside the folder where adb and fastboot are located and select ''Open command window here'' from the contextual menu.
You need TWRP recovery (2.6.3.3 or higher) on your device.
Unlock bootloader if not already unlocked:

Flash TWRP Recovery:
Make sure the recovery.img file is in the same folder where adb and fastboot are located
reboot phone in bootloader mode
Flash the recovery:

It sounds like you do not have the right drivers installed, try installing them from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 and see if that works. There is an update there for Windows 8.1 as well.

[Q] Can't Load OS via USB otg or computer, stuck in TWRP.

Ok so I screwed up.
I'm not a developer but i'm familiar with most of the basics. So my m7 was rooted with android revolution 81.0. I was having unrelated problems with calls and also some other small things like a lock screen delay. I decided I was gonna do a system wipe (which I've done plenty of times before with no problems) but this time I forgot to put the OS on the sd card before the wipe. As of now my phone turns on but stays on the HTC screen unless I force it into bootloader and I can also get into TWRP still. I also noticed I wiped the sd card as well by accident so everything is gone. I tried loading the OS via USB OTG but when i go to mount OTG in TWRP I can't select "USB-OTG".I can only select "system" "cache" and "data" I also tried mounting the phone via the computer but it doesn't show up but it does come up on device manager with a yellow exclamation sign next to it. I've heard you can do something with the ADB Sideload but I have no idea how to do that so if that's the answer please explain in detail.
If someone can get it to where I can mount the OTG then I can handle it from there.
Just some details:
S-on
TWRP version 2.6.3.2
I think i've wiped everyting there is to wipe trying to fix this, (
I've been without a phone for a week now and I'm desperate for any kind of fix. I'd greatly appreciate if someone could steer me in the right direction.

first thing is first, you need to sort out your driver, so when you see "one " with the yellow exclamation mark in your device manager, right click on it and select update driver, select the 2nd option, browse for driver software, again select the 2nd option which is something like let me choose the driver, it may give you a list after that of the type of device connected, select android devices, then select your latest myHTC driver from the list, it will give you some warning about it may not be the correct driver, are you sure you want to install, select yes.
Next, do you know how to use adb and fastboot ?

I know it involves the command terminal but no, I've never used it before.

Sorry I had to leave for work, what you need is adb and fastboot files, so download this link and extract it to your desktop https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407580571
Then download either twrp 2.6.3.3 or 2.6.3.4 from the twrp recovery web site, when it's downloaded, rename it to recovery.img for ease and place it in the same folder as adb and fastboot.
You will then need to open a command Windows within that folder by holding control, shift and right mouse click on any white area within that folder, select open command window here.
Make sure your phone is plugged into the computer, and in the bootloader with fastboot usb showing on the screen.
At this point your drivers must be working as per my other post, then issue the following commands one at a time.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now enter recovery, your usb otg cable should work now for flashing a Rom, be sure to do a full wipe before flashing, your current recovery sounds too old to me for usb otg support.

If your still having problems with usb otg cable at this point, take the Rom which you want to flash and again place it in the same folder on your desktop as adb and fastboot, rename it to Rom.zip for ease, put your phone into recovery and then plug it into the computer, with recovery main screen showing on the phone, once again open a command window on your computer from within the adb and fastboot folder and issue the following command
adb push Rom.zip /sdcard/
Takes about 5 mins and will look unresponsive but it will let you know when it's done, unplug your phone when done, wipe and install.

What the guy above me said was right, the problem I think with your phone is drivers I'll upload a link to adv drivers in my next post, basically using recovery (twrp recommend) wipe /data, /cache & /system. Then go to adb sideload which is in the recovery (it should say something like adb server started). Then using adb devices command check if your computer sees your device if not you gotta install drivers for your computer. In device manager on your computer your device should be something like ADB interface if not drivers are not correctly installed. Right click update drivers I'll link it in ma next post

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.
