Hello,
I have recently rooted and loaded the cm10.1 rom, and now, i'd like to load a different rom.
My problem, however, is that when using the all in one toolkit and RUUs all lead to the same error, that my device is offline.
I have:
Unplugged/replugged my USB
Rebooted both computer and phone
added new adb to the toolkit data folder
But to no avail.
In the bootloader menu, the toolkit will say
error:device not found isntead
How would I go about flashing a new rom when my stupid computer won't recognize the phone :'(
you should go learn something instead of using the all-in-one kit as you should know how to flash a rom if you have cm10.1 on it now.
No idea how or where to start

The USB connects, and I can access phone files when I turn the USB connection on, but I can't get a custom ROM to flash

What does that mean exactly? You are in TWRP, you select the ROM zip, then what happens? Any error messages?

I believe he is trying to use the kit to flash the ROM?
Because I can't flash boot.img in recovery.
And I can't figure out anything on flashing these things without the toolkit
First of all, make sure you have both ADB and fastboot in your computer. Go to CMD, then cd to your adb directory, and try "adb devices". If it doesn't recognize the device, try with a different usb cable, or download adb again. If it does recognize the phone type in "adb reboot-bootloader", once the
phone boots into the bootloader, type in "fastboot devices", then "fastboot flash boot boot.img", last step "fastboot reboot". And you are done flashing the boot.img

Hey,
i just wanted to flash the newest clockworkmod but my fastboot.exe does nothing.
Phone is in fastbootmode, please help
Windows 7 x64...but it worked the other day
Fastboot flash recovery "recovery".img where "recovery" stands for the numbers of the recovery in tools folder i believe.
Also if you run 2.3.4, recovery wil not stick after reboot unless you change something ( i believe the recovery.sh file), hope this helps!

i can flash the recovery fia ROMManager, and also can boot into it, but when i boot the phone into bootloader/fastboot mode i can't flash a new recovery, because when i hit enter after "fastboot" i get no output in cmd
If you don't get anything back on fastboot devices, then you either don't have the proper drivers installed, don't have the phone in fastboot mode, or don't have the phone connected via USB. Probably the first one.
Easiest way to get the fastboot drivers is to simply install PDA Net on your computer and follow the on screen prompts. It will automatically install the appropriate drivers for your device.

Did you install the "ADB Bootloader Interface" driver?
Did you boot the the phone into the bootloader before trying the fastboot command? (ie. UP + PWR)

and a restart adb and fastboot worked.
I posted this before but it was dead so I'm reposting, sorry. I was in the process of rooting my brothers phone, I turned S-off and flashed updated firmware, however I forgot to flash a recovery. Now the phone is in a bootloop. I tried downloading 4ext recovery file PG58IMG to flash in bootloader. I added his cid number to the file but when I run bootloader it doesn't give me the option to install the file. The other method I was told to try involves using CMD to do it with the flashing tool. But since I can't start the phone, cmd doesn't recognize the device. Can somebody please help me? How can I install recovery on this device?
You could always go into fastboot manually and use the cmd prompt. Fastboot flash recovery **********.IMG I'm almost sure that's the proper command.

I tried doing that but nothing happened. cmd prompt said waiting for device but nothing happened. Do I have to have adb set up or what are the steps in order for me to do that?

this means you havent connected the phone properly to pc
the phone should show "fastboot usb" if connected to pc properly ..if it shows hboot and there is an option fastboot in the list . browse to fastboot using volume download ..then select fastboot using power ...then connect the device to pc ( at the end phone should show fastboot usb)
then try the command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(if you got PG58IMG.zip open it and copy the recovery.img to the folder where you got adb/fastboot )
Hi,
Take a look at this thread, it may be able to help you out, plus the tool is simple to use to install the recovery as well. Just follow the instructions.

I just went through some similar stuff. What type of computer are you using? PC/Mac? Are you using the original cable? What troubleshooting steps for connectivity have you done? Different cable? USB port?
Can you access the bootloader screen when you pull the battery and reboot while holding the volume button down and holding the power button? By accident, I found that the phone and PC will communicate with each other when "Fastboot" is selected on the bootloader screen (you should hear a connection chime and it should change to "Fastboot USB") except I could only get fastboot commands to work. The good news is that should be enough to flash a boot or whatever else you need to get back in business.

Hi, Thanks for the reply.I am using windows 7. I downloaded the drivers for HTC, and I am using a data cable and the USB port in the back of my computer, nearest the mother board. I do see "Fastboot USB" on the phone but when i type in the command prompt "adb devices" I get nothing.

That's great you're getting the fastboot usb message! As long as you're not using a hub or some other usb extender, any functioning usb port on the pc will do. Again, I learned this by accident (ie the hard way) and found that in this mode, only fastboot commands will work, not adb. (on a side note, and others should correct me here, adb and fastboot work together when the phone is rebooted normally or in recovery but not in the bootloader screen)
Great test for connection: fastboot devices (if you get anything else except a serial # with fastboot after it, then close the cmd window, unplug, and pull battery/reboot to bootloader), fastboot reboot-bootloader. Once it reboots back into the bootloader screen, make sure you press the power button while fastboot is selected and you should again hear the chime and see fastboot usb come up. This is your phone saying it's ready to accept your fastboot commands.
Do let us know how it works.

As far as I know, fastboot only works when your phone is in fastboot mode. ADB works in recovery or system.

Flash a rooted stock ROM from recovery. Whether you have root is in your system partition. Whether your bootloader is unlocked is in your bootloader. Whether you have a custom recovery is in your recovery partition. Three separate things.

I'm guessing that you're trying to flash a PD98IMG.zip or a RUU. You need an actual stock rooted ROM, probably from here on the forum. Or just flash Android Revolution HD, an optimized rooted stock ROM, also from here on the forum in the development section. For more specific steps read the Ace Think Tank linked in my signature.

Dear friends,
I have this problem: I got a brand new TCL S720 and the Google Play did not work, being a known rom issue. So, before doing anything, I've managed to make a backup of it's original rom with MTK Droid tools whichI supose it did it well. Then I've tried to install a CWM recovery to try a custom rom for it. The CWM recovery seemed to install succesfully but I didn't manage to install the new rom. If I remember well, it stucked on boot logo. Then tried to revert at it's original stock recovery, managed to have the phone back as it was in initial state, but doing more tries, It remained stucked on boot logo. The problem is that my computer doesn't recognise it anymore, when I connect it to USB it tries to install MTP usb driver but even before the driver was installed well, now it refuse to install, like the driver is not good or the proper driver doesn't exist. So the only thing I can do is to boot on stock recovery but even I tried to copy the original rom update.zip on external SD and to flash the phone using install update from sd card in recovery mode, It doesn't find the external sd card. So I'm stuck here, the computer doesn't detect the phone to try flashing it with SP flash tool or MTK Droid tool, and I also can't flash it from sd card. Have you any idea how to make it work again?
Thanks in advance.

Hey guys,
I have a problem that hopefully someone can help me with. Any help is much appreciated. I got my phone a year ago and I rooted it and unlocked it immediately. I removed the stock ROM and put Clean Rom 4.5 on it. Today, I realized my phone could be manually updated to jelly bean, so i wanted to install CM 10.1.
During installation, I just put the boot.img of the Rom in my folder that contained adb, fastboot, etc and I was at the step of loading recovery to install the rom, my phone could not get into the recovery and just kept restarting over and over again. I can still get into the bootloader. I read online to try and type "fastboot erase cache", but that isnt working because my computer can no longer recognize the phone. When I go into bootloader and into fastboot, my computer makes the sound like the USB is recognized but when I type the command "adb devices", no device is showing up.
I'm guessing that my first step to hopefully solving this issue is to find a way to have my device show up when I type "adb devices" but my attempts so far have been futile.
Key Points:
- Can't get past HTC boot screen (keeps looping)
- can still access bootloader
- no device seen when command "adb devices" has been typed.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I should add that when this occured (the looping), I tried to flash "recovery clockwork touch 5.8.2.7" and I was accidentally following a guide meant for the European HTC One X. The recovery image that I should have used (and did use to flash Clean Rom) is "TWRP 2.2.0 evita".

ADB is a program that gives you control of your phone "terminal" or "command line" remotely. It requires you to be booted into your ROM with USB debugging turned on so ofcourse it won't show any devices while in bootloader.
There are at least 20 threads that ask this same question. How do I know? I've answered at least that amount just myself. Please use the search function in the future prior to asking. I'm so tired of wasting time answering the same questions over and over.
Download TWRP 2.3.3.1 <- latest version that works properly without any issues with any ROMs
Check MD5 <- If you don't have an md5 checker google and download one. This will verify the download is good.
Put your phone in bootloader/fastboot

Hey, thanks for the reply. Yeah, I read up on ADB after i posted the thread. I learnt that you can't use ADB commands in the bootloader. I've been trying to flash the recovery but i keep getting "waiting for device". (regardless of what command i try). I don't think its the USB drivers because I downloaded the latest HTC drivers (in fact there is a thread about the latest USB drivers for HTC, which is where I downloaded from) and there isn't any exclamation points in device manager. Not really sure what the issue is, any additional help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

USBDeview just uninstall whatever devices you want reinitialized especially since they can change even with rom changes so it is good to clear some old ones out by sorting them based on Last Plug/Unplug Date.
Found that in another thread, going to try that. Hopefully that will work.

I just install the latest HTC sync. It installs the latest driver.
Also, try to avoid using a USB hub if you are.
Make sure HTC Sync isn't running when you are using fastboot/adb
Worst case scenario, you could always create a VM or something to get it going.

Either should work fine. Cleanrom will have somewhat bettery battery life.

another good tip is that when you are in fastboot mode and write "adb devices" not will work because adb will just work when your phone is turned on inside the android, and fastboot not will work if you arent in mode fastboot
Hello guys. I have HTC Sensation, Bootloader unlocked, S-ON, HBOOT-1.27.0000
Yesterday I tried to flash TWRP using fastboot. I have downloaded ADB drivers and also HTC drivers. Connected device and everything was working good. ADB showed my device serial number (or what it is, I don't remember) when I type "adb devices" in command. Then I typed "cd Downloads" to point to download directory (this is where I have twrp.img) and at least "adb reboot bootloader" . Device rebooted into bootloader, but, suddenly, popup appeared on my laptop, it was saying "USB device not recognized". I have closed it and go into command, I typed "adb devices" again, but it didn't show anything at this time. Then I run command "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" and it returned "Waiting for device...".
After no luck., I have tried to install twrp.img though Flashify. It successfully flashed. I go into recovery, make a backup, perform clean wipe and tried to flash CM12. But it didn't flash. Then I go to restore tab but I can't see my backup. So, TWRP is not flashing anything, I have even tried stock ROM, also it's not backing up things. So now, I'm in bootloop, no OS is installed on my sensation and every time I boot up device, it automatically going into recovery.
I have laptop running Windows 10. I want to make ADB working in bootloader mode or make TWRP working to flash something.
Thanks in advance.

So now, I'm in bootloop, no OS is installed on my sensation and every time I boot up device, it automatically going into recovery.
I have laptop running Windows 10. I want to make ADB working in bootloader mode or make TWRP working to flash something.
Thanks in advance.

adb doesn't work in bootloader, only fastboot
when you enter in bootlaoder choose fastboot
in the hboot screen you will see fastboot usb
then you can use any fastboot command
i suggest to change the recovery to 4ext
http://d-h.st/rG7
extract the recovery.img and flash it via fastboot command
then before flashing the new rom from 4ext enable smartflash from it(because you are on S-ON)

Probably win 10 is the issue

Drivers and SDK is compatible with Windwos 10. I don't think it's the problem, but thanks anyways.

use usb 2.0 ports not 3.0
if nothing works then a ruu.exe to return back to stock

by the way did you enable usb debugging mode from settings?
