Can anyone give me Adb commands?

Basically this was my problem
Here is my problem today I put the CM9 (march 28th version) rom onto the transformer all was fine until I tried installing Gapps.
Basically I installed Gapps within recovery rebooted and boot loops occurred. However as I deleted the rom off of the internal memory (using roachs recover with internal ) I cannot access the internal memory anymore to put the ROM back on.
I have tired connecting the transformer via USB to 4 computers and the drivers do not install, have downloaded them off the asus website fine but they do not install on windows. The recovery has system mounted so it cant be that ....
Seems like im stuck between a rock and a hard place atm not really sure what to do..
Can anyone help?

Thanks

Managed to fix it cold booted and deleted data now into cm9 so going to but a stock rom on internal SD card now

In the future simply type: adb help
It will give you all the commands with syntax and explanation

[HOW-TO] Fix soft brick & error mounting sdcard

EDIT: I solved my own problem. Scroll down to post #8 for the solution.
My problem was that my phone (T-Mobile USA HTC One S) would not boot into ICS anymore, but I was still able to get into recovery (CWM), yet I had no access to the sdcard ("unable to mount /sdcard").
Post #8 below tells you how you can restore access to the sdcard in CWM so that you can push a ROM zip file to the sdcard via adb.

Have you made any nandroids? If you have maybe you can restore. Also check in the download file in cwm that is possible place where that file may be.

Unfortunately I didn't have the foresight to make a nandroid backup. My previous phone was a Samsung Galaxy S 4G, which, like most Android phones, has a removable SD-Card that stuff can be copied onto (and then flashed). Not so here obviously.
Is it even possible to push files to the sdcard using the method I tried when in CWM?

When you push the file via ADB, have you tried placing it into a folder that you know is on the /sdcard?

It just got worse. I got the idea to format all partitions (data, system, cache, sdcard) through CWM, and now CWM can't even mount /sdcard/ anymore...

I had to do the same thing:
adb push "NameOfFile.zip /sdcard
then go to install from zip.
Look on sd card and it will be there.
I always rename the zip files to there can be less errors.
you can also do
adb shell pull "nameOfFile.zip /sdcard
make sure the zip file is where your adb and fastboot is

My problem is CWM can't mount the /sdcard directory, so I can't flash the new OS. Is there anybody that knows how to recover from that problem?

Yes, I just fixed my problem yesterday after some serious trial-and-error.
1) Use the All-in-One-Kit and flash your recovery back to stock
2) Boot into the bootloader and choose to "clear storage" and afterwards to reset to factory defaults.
3) Go back to the all-in-one-kit and flash a CWM recovery version again.
4) Reboot into recovery (CWM). Your /sdcard should now be mounted and visible.
5) Now, try the UTB rom (it worked for me), rename the zip file to something short (i.e. utb.zip), and push it to the sdcard using adb as follows:
Code:
adb push utb.zip /sdcard
6) While still in CWM, flash the zip.
The trick here is that only the stock recovery is capable of restoring access to the sdcard by it's proprietary "clear storage" option.
Good luck!

If that doesn't work an easy fix is boot into bootloader, goto fastboot and use "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and so fouth. In the dev section I seen a stock tmobile naindroid. Download it and you'll have your data.img and boot.img. You should be able to flash them without needing to push to /sdcard. letme know how it works
I know you fixed this already just thought this still might help

Thank you. I changed the title and original post to make it easier for people to find this thread.

I am going to try this trick tomorrow after having spent endless hours trying to fdisk/parted via adb, and flashing endless roms and updates to no avail. I will post the outcome here. I really hope this works for me like it has for you guys...

IT WORKED! This thread should be made sticky! I'm sure a lot of users who have HTC One S with built-in SD will have the same issue when mucking about with their phone. Thank you!

Bump, as too many people are having this problem.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! THIS WORKED PERFECTLY!
This should definitely be included in a stickied guide for people like me who have managed to corrupt their recoveries.

Try to shorten the filename, i.e. "rom.zip".
And try this slightly modified command instead:
adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip

[RESOLVED] Flashing Custom Rom Results In Noob Hiccup, No Backup and Can't SD Mount

Hey guys, unfortunately my first post here will be under messy circumstances but I've managed to mess my phone up pretty bad.
I have an AT&T HTC One X. I'm running on Windows 7 64bit, all drivers updated, permissions set, etc. etc.
I was supposed to be flashing Cyanogenmod 10 when I ran into an error in that was in the actual zip file. Prior to installing TWRP I had Clockwork mod installed. I flashed TWRP onto my phone & have been using that since.
My noob hiccup was instead of deleting just the zip file I managed to wipe the entire sd card, backups included (I'm an idiot, I know).
Now I don't have an os and cannot run in debugging mode in order to get adb to function properly. When I adb I cannot access /system/ nor /sdcard/. I can only access /data/ & of course installing CM10 through that directory has resulted in more fails.
Please tell me there's a way to salvage this. Thanks in advance...

Stick to ROMs in this specific (AT&T One X) forum, and you won't go wrong again (at least not in that way).
Or check out my Index thread to see the ROMs in an organized list: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237

Download the stock firmware (WW or US). Unzip it once (it will still be a zip).
Place said file where you can flash with your recovery.
Flash stock firmware with CWM.
Reboot.

What version of CWM are you on and how did you install it?
I am assuming you mustve used ROM Manager to update it...See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671598
You should use PERI to push a working recovery and then flash it using that.

Yes, 3.2 is Honeycomb. I am not sure if Wolf's Exploit works on Honeycomb or not, but I would give PERI a try (linked in my previous post).

Is this the password for the Android OS, or is it an encryption password?
If it is an encryption password before the Android login, you will need to do a format data (wipe the entire /data/ partition including /data/media/ a.k.a. /sdcard/). If your internal memory was encrypted then it would make sense why CWM cannot mount the /sdcard/.
Can you install zips from the microSD with your recovery? If so you could try flashing another recovery zip file and see if that works. You could also try to use adb to install another recovery when you are in CWM.

What do you mean by usb storage? You can flash your rom by sideloading it under your recovery.
adb sideload rom-name.zip

when u open the recovery go to mount then mount usb storage

i used it many times in my old phone " Nexus s "

I'm also using a mac. if your downloading the sdk from google u go to sdk/platform-tools and theres the adb file.
Next you need to place the rom file in the same folder
then you need to go to your recovery under install from sideload
and then in your terminal
./adb sideload rom-name.zip
after transfering from mac it gets installed directly

that should be tricky trying a rom without installing it.
The only solution I know would be doing a backup before. Then installing it and then restoring the backup.
There should be some other recovery where u can manage your roms. but I cant remember.
