[Q] How do i flash a file to internal sdcard?

My HTC ONE wont mount via usb so i'm trying to flash a custom rom to the phone's internal storage (as it has no sdcard slot)
I have got as far as opening the CMD and directing it to the device but i dont know the proper command to ADD a zip file to the storage
anyone pls help, i think this is fairly simple
You're supposed to be using ADB commands in order to sideload a ROM and then install it from recovery.
Is that what you are trying to do or how are you going about it? Are you trying to use fast boot commands? Because those won't work.
Here's a guide to setting up ADB:
http://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/
You'll need proper drivers for your computer to recognise your device in ADB mode, and those are automatically installed with HTC Sync Manager.
After placing the ROM file into the platform-tools folder, rename it to rom.zip and then execute the following command:
adb sideload rom.zip
Of course that's after making sure that your device is actually recognised by ADB and listed in command prompt, by using this code:
adb devices
Good luck
Ok great i think i have adb and most of the drivers already installed so i'll give this a go.
yes my ONE got stuck in bootloop with CM10.1 and my backups are on my PC not the phone so i figured i'd mount by USB but neither TWRP or CWM will mount by USB????
I have CWM touch installed so i'm thinking as long as this is in place my device isn't tottally shafted?
Use the command:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/0
or
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /data/media
when you're in CWM, then flash the rom
Drag and drop it to the storage folder. Should be
/storage/sdcard0
And you can use ftp WiFi from the playstore if you don't wanna connect via usb cable.
I've resolved this now.
i'll explain what i did, it may help someone else out:
I went into CWM
Then i formatted the internal sdcard
Once i did that, an option in CWM appeared to sideload zip, i picked that, then it waited for the sideload command
went to folder on my PC containing adb.exe > hold shift > right click > open command here
then typed "adb sideload <romname>"
thanks for the help, good community here.
Yes, that's the correct way. And by the way, you cannot mount usb storage while you're in recovery anymore, neither TWRP nor CWM will do that for you. The only other option is using an OTG cable.

Have I Bricked MY Phone ?

I'm worried.
I went to install a new rom, so formatted my sd card first, without realising it I've wiped my backups and also the rom I was going to flash. I can still get into twrp but I have no idea how to get a rom across to my handset.
ive tried fastboot update but i just get "waiting for device"
Someone please help

Triy adb sideload, links for how to http://www.google.nl/url?sa=t&rct=j...v4l4QSOgEwWvPXvTXm_X0Kw&bvm=bv.48705608,d.ZWU.
1. Connect your phone make sure it's actually connected and you have the drivers.
If you don't have the drivers check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1983470
2. Rename the ROM you want to flash to something basic, I used Find5.zip
3. Open CMD (command prompt), navigate it to the folder you placed the ROM
(e.g. code: cd C:\Users\Jelle\Downloads\ will navigate to my Downloads folder)
4. Boot to recovery on your phone and enable the ADB sideload function.
5. in CMD type adb sideload Find5.zip
6. Let TWRP or CWM flash the zip and prompt for reboot.
7. Reboot and be happy, your phone is fixed!

Wiped internal storage. Only have old TWRP recovery. How can I recover phone?

I can't see the device when I connect it to my laptop. ADB can't see it. I can't mount an OTG cable.
I've got a custom ROM downloaded (CM) but I don't know how to get it on to the phone to be able to install it?
Start adb sideload within TWRP
The on your pc open a command prompt / terminal and type - adb sideload rom.zip (rom.zip being the rom you downloaded)

Cannot Boot to TWRP

I can get into fastboot, but I can't boot directly to custom recovery unless I connect to my laptop and run toolkit. Any ideas?
Quick boot from the play store is working fine on my Nexus 6.
DON'T.
USE.
TOOLKITS!
Download and install Minimal ADB and Fastboot. Downloaded latest TWRP for Nexus 6 (twrp-3.0.3-0-shamu.img at this time of writing). Enabled adb debugging if you haven't already on your Nexus 6 developer options. Put the twrp you downloaded in the same folder as your minimal adb and fastboot. Go to that folder and open cmd-here (this opens a command prompt window in that directory). Type adb devices to verify it sees your phone connected. Type adb reboot-bootloader to reboot into bootloader mode. Type fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.3-0-shamu.img . Now try to boot into recovery and it should work.

error during installing TwRp

I have unlocked my bootloader and when I try to install TWRP recovery and open a cmd write the commands 'adb devices' and "fastboot devices" to check whether connected or not it shows connected then reboot to to bootloader but when I put command "fastboot flash recovery recovery. img" I get " cannot load recovery. Img" . I also downloaded the latest TWRP victara and adb, fastboot aswell but can't get what problem is please Help guys!!!

So you got the latest ADB and Fastboot:
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html
You got the latest TWRP Victara:
https://twrp.me/motorola/motorolamotox2014.html
Extract ADB and Fastboot, and put the TWRP img file in the same folder, start command prompt as Admin and Change Directory to where the files are:
cd C:\Users\User\Downloads\platform-tools (this is just an example)
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-0-victara.img
Boot into recovery immediately.

Did you install the Motorola USB Drivers?
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_detail/a_id/79106/p/30,75,27,
Did you type the full name of the img file, including .img
You must write fasstboot flash recovery (full name of the file ot rename it).img.
When is finished not take off the cable and run recovery from device bootloader.
Thats it.
