I found out what the issue was. I removed my SD card and instead copied the files into the internal memory and was able to locate them that way. Now when once I start installing the firmware I get this error:
Install /sdcard/external_sd ...
then in red letters: E: Short write of /tmp/sideload/package.zip (No space left on device)
Installation aborted.
Perhaps the firmware is faulty? I had downloaded the most up to date one from here: CyanogenMod Downloads
and now I see there has been a new one added just some hours ago. Should I download it?
Thanks,

Probably I can help you:
1. Go to recovery
2. Plug your phone to your PC (USB)
3. I am using TWRP 2.6.3.0, for me on the homescreen I have a "Mount" button, click it, and press mount usb storage.
4. After a while you will see your phone internal memory plugged in as an USB disk.
5. Download any ROM you want, make sure that you are downloading ROM for your device (There is 2 types of HTC One S, Ville and VilleC2)
Perform a factory reset in recovery
6. Flash the ROM (press install and select the ZIP file) (Do not reboot! Stay in recovery)
7. On your PC create a folder called "fastboot" on C drive
8. Download the file from the attachment, and extract the 4 files from it to the folder which you created before
9. Still on your PC... open the ROM (ZIP file), and you probably have a boot.img file in it.
10. Extract the boot.img to "fastboot" folder
11. On your phone now... In recovery select "Reboot" and select Bootloader
12. Your phone will now reboot to bootloader, you will probably see FASTBOOT USB
13. open cmd
14. In cmd write this:
Code:
cd/
cd fastboot
fastboot flash boot boot.img
After it says "Completed!" write:
fastboot reboot
15. Your phone will reboot and probably it will work
PS: Sorry for my bad english
EDIT: Hope you have already updated your phone to Jelly Bean....
Because if you was still on Ice Cream Sandwich then JellyBean ROMs will probably not work

[Completed] HELP HELP !! BOOTLOOP [ROOTED] witout cwm

Hi guys . I need your help ..
I have a Firefly Intense X and i rooted it using Kingo and it works fine .. Then I downloaded Pimp My Rom to customized my rom .. I had fun customizing it and it always works fine. Then i'm not contented with my phone's performance so I adjusted it again until I bump in to the adjusting its dpi. I'm not sure if its under Dalvik VM or kernel tweaks .. Then adjust another thing . I don't remember what it is but I remember that it has 'step n1' then again , I adjust something then I click the last step the 'step n(x) - reboot' . then after that , it reboot over and over and over again .. I mean it will show the Company logo the the boot animation then it will go to the homescreen then says download failed after a few seconds , it will go back to the boot animation then go to the homescreen then reboot the again and again and again ..
My phone is recognized by the computer at the device manager under Adb Interface as HTC Dream but my phone is Firefly Mobile. I thought it will appear under 'Other devices' with a yellow warning sign but it's now . I'ts under Adb Interface. I tried to unistall it many times but it is always an HTC Dream. I also downloaded the adb setup 1.4.2 .
I wipe factory data and cache but it is still happening. I already try to go to the fastboot and unlock but i can't unlock it . It says volume up for yes and volume down for no, I click my volume up and nothing is happening. And I also tried to " adb push <filename> /sdcard/. " and it says 'no such file or directory' but the file name I inserted is correct and it is placed to the correct folder. I also tried to removed my sdcard and direct it at my pc and put a new downloaded custom rom and insert it again to my phone but I can't find it when I choose to 'apply update from sdcard'.
NOTE:
I can go to recovery mode and fastboot mode (locked) only not on a CWM.
Please please please .. I need a solution for this problem. And if you have please make it a step-by-step process.
I need you guys .
PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE
