Hi all,
I want to learn to push files to my phone through adb push command, so I load into bootloader, then type "fastboot devices" , my phone showed up with no problem, but then i type
adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip
it gives me a message
"error: device not found"
did I do something wrong?

No. You used fastboot. Fastboot commands in fastboot. Adb commands in recovery or android

Thanks for your reply, what do you mean by force install the driver? and do you have the link to the driver or is it included in the SDK already?

If you're still having problems I recommend reading this guide. How to Use “adb sideload” to Update a Nexus Without Root or Custom Recovery
But when you get to the part of the guide where you have to type in "adb sideload <filename.zip>", you might have to refer to this to solve it.
I myself have just installed 4.4.2 using this method. Camera SO much faster now.

Hey,
i just wanted to flash the newest clockworkmod but my fastboot.exe does nothing.
Phone is in fastbootmode, please help

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 ever figure this out? I have installed PDA net, drivers, etc, and fastboot simply will not connect to my phone. Win7x64.

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)

Had the same issues, although drivers were installed. After including "C:\android-sdk-windows\tools"
and "C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools"
in the path of win7 (systemvariables)
and a restart adb and fastboot worked.
Boy, this is frustrating! So after fixing Windows broken drivers, HTC's inability to support Windows 8, and about a dozen other things that have gone wrong, I am now trying to understand why, after rooting my phone, SU permissions is not granted automatically from the bootloader.
I'm just trying to update to a newer version of CM. When I issue "adb devices", nothing. Finally, I figured something out. If the phone is booted into CM, I got into the emulator, and issue "su" - and the prompt changes from $ to #, bingo, device shows up in ADB devices. I wouldn't be able to switch to SU if the phone weren't rooted right? I mean, I'm already running CM, so phone must be rooted?
I can't really issue "SU" from bootloader.
Not sure what to do. Can someone assist?
Thanks so much!

Thanks. Yes, sorry, that is what I meant. I was in fastboot. It says fastboot usb. I see "My HTC" in the device manager. But adb devices is empty. If I boot it up, start term mon, and issue "su", then adb devices shows the phone.

Correct, you should not be using adb when in bootloader, use fastboot, adb is only for in recovery and os

I bricked my Nexus 5 by installing the kernal from touchcontrol.
I can get into recovery mode.
I can not mount the USB storage or access any of my phones files
I've tried installing ADB drivers but that didn't help.
Anyone know what I should do to fix this?

Download the stock kernel zip from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319202404 and place it in the fastboot folder. Then reboot in recovery and choose adb sideload. Open cmd and type : adb sideload namekernel.zip and press enter and that should do it, then reboot.

Hello,
When the phone is in recovery mode, the file explorer won't show up with your nexus files... The fact that a sound is coming proves that the phone is being detected...
If you have setup a working adb environment you can follow what @gee2012 has said and sideload the kernel and flash it... If you haven't then download the android sdk and make sure you have downloaded the usb_driver package as well...

First, don't yet think your phone it's bricked. The actual solution is to get the proper driver on the computer. Remember that nexus 5 does not have Sdcard and there's not way to mount to the computer via recovery. Only ADB PUSH and ADB SIDELOAD will put a Rom into your phone.
You have to check on device manager to see the status of the driver. if t shows as Nexus 5, you will have to update the driver to and adb compatible one. If it says ADB........ then, you are good to go
EDIT: @vin4yak, one day I'll go to ninja school too
1.) If your device is actually bricked then a USB cable will do you absolutely no good. Fixing a "bricked" device is something that will need to be JTAG'd for it to work again. I think you might be mistaken about what a bricked device is. Its pretty hard to brick a nexus device so I highly doubt you're device is bricked.
2.) You have to get into fastboot mode. Just search for how to do so. Then you can flash the stock img's through fastboot and you'll be back in business. I have no clue about what drivers you'll need for your setup as I haven't run windows in 9 years or so. Just get the drivers, fastboot, and get your nexus back.
Why don't you just flash a boot.img from the stock rom? Or going back to stock?
You cannot mount sdcard to the pc in recovery. You have to use adb push or adb sideload.
To make adb work in recovery you need naked usb drivers 0.73.
Then you can adb sideload a rom, or push a rom to /sdcard.
Anyway download my attachment, put your phone to fastboot mode and double click on flash.bat then report me back
Check out this thread. If you can boot into recovery, then you should be able to boot into fastboot and restore your N5 back to stock.

If you flashed the latest TWRP 2.8.1.0, you can boot into recovery and enable MTP mode. Then drag the files across exactly like when you plug in and use MTP in android.

6. Use ADB to launch a root shell from within Philz recovery
a. Ensure that the drivers are now detecting your device as an ADB ready device by entering: ‘adb devices’. If it returns “<serialnumberofdevice> recovery” then you are ready to proceed. If it does not, please verify your ADB driver installation and check again.
b. Enter: ‘adb shell’ to gain full root shell access to the Android file system. (You should see a “~#” prompt to show that you’re now in a root shell)

Despite hours of searching, I cannot find someone with my exact problem and a solution.
I have a nexus 5
It started bootlooping for no reason
I tried to flash the stock image, everything flashed but it still won't boot.
I tried to download kitkat but I'm using easy tether and I can't use HTTPS and nobody has mirrors.
I've done both the long way by flashing each individual file at a time
I've tried flash all and both fail, I do not get any errors I was not told to ignore during those processes.
Now, I'm fed up and want a new phone anyway. So I want to set the tamper flag to false so I an take it back.
I start following a guide, tells me to download the bootunlocker script and flash it with TWRP.
I flash TWRP with no problems and open it up
Open adb sideload
Open cmd
Type ADB devices
Serial pops up with the active state
I type adb usb
Restarts in usb mode
Type Adb push filename <location> <remote>
Daemon started successfully on port 5037
Error: Closed
I am on windows 7 using adb version 1.0.32.
Can someone please help me?
Why are you using ADB thru TWRP?
If you can flash things your device is already unlocked.
Boot your N5 to bootloader mode and flash stock images from there.
I haven't read one guide that says to use TWRP and use ADB that way.
Flash stock images thru bootloader and use the guides provided here on XDA.
You might of messed up your devices by flashing that bootunlocker. I've never heard of that or heard of flashing something thru recovery to unlock your phone.

I think you misunderstood. I haven't been able to flash bootunlocker yet because of the error with sideload.
I've already tried many times flashing the stock images in fastboot mode. My phone is unlocked but I just want to reset my tamper flag now, I'm not trying to fix it anymore.

I know that but are you planning to return the device? I should have been more clear.
Also when flashing stock images, are you wiping everything before/after flashing?
Also take note boot up time can be up to 10 minutes.
