ADB won't recognize phone/bootloader/Can't replace recovery HELP!

So basically I found out just today we have Cyanogenmod 10.2 >.<
I downloaded the Joilaroi version, flashed it in TWRP 2.6xx and then suddenly "E: Error in updating binary script" did a bit of googling and found out that it's a common problem with TWRP > 2.3.3.0
So I was about to downgrade it to 2.3.3.0 or temp boot into CWM. Connected my phone to my laptop and went to bootloader, then did Adb devices....the list was empty.
Reinstalled HTC drivers, used different USB port...nothing.
TL;DR : Phone doesn't get recognized in Bootloader mode, Can't flash ROM, Can't replace recovery. Help!

Why don't you flash with terminal emulator?
Just put recovery.img in the root of your sdcard
Open terminal type
su
cd sdcard
flash_image recovery recovery.img
That's it

That's what I'm doing now but I need a proper solution :/ Basically Windows won't recognize my phone through fastboot. I'd rather not keep installing CM9 again and again after a failed flash, you know?

install htc drivers and make dure you cleared the all registry and files from your previous installation and connect your device
open cmd and go to the folder where you placed adb and type command
adb kill-server =>it will close all adb processes running at that time
adb start-server => it will start new adb process
adb devices=> to reconize your device
if it shows your device then through fastboot command flash the recovery
but make sure you have all neccessary binary files in that folder for adb and fastboot
hit thanks if helped

You can try installing the newer Drivers.
Else your usb port may be broken. that is also a possiblity

I had the same problem last week.
Try to go in bootloader, then in fastboot and connect the device to the PC, from the PC with the Promt go in your adb folder
Code:
cd c:/[I]position of your folder[/I]
then test if adb sees your device with the command
Code:
adb devices
If it's ok then try again to push again the ROM with the command
Code:
adb push [I]name_of_the_file.zip[/I] /sdcard/zip.rom

Then you should fix the driver problem first, have you tried it with both Win 8.1 and 7?

doesn't work ADB on fastboot mode. both of win 7 and win 8.
BUT in the fastboot mode no driver problem ! i dont understand, you say ; when phone in the fastboot mode, adb push command should work ?
BTW, just now in the fastboot mode, its finally fastboot flash zip rom.zip command works, but *UCKN the new problem occurs
when the write flash command, error : data length is too large!
i investigate this problem now, do you know the problem root cause ?

In a last try you can simply downgrade your hboot and run last ruu. Then re-uprade your hboot and so

I'm not sure about what I'm saying but adb sideload doesn't work on recoveries made for hboot 2.16, aswell as mounting sdcard.
When you try to adb sideload from modded recovery for 2.16, it recognizes only 48mb of memory that's why you can't use it. But I repeat I'm not sure about it I never had to use adb sideload.
Edit : And you cannot flash a rom with fastboot. Flashing zip from it has to be done only when you want ot uprgade/downgrade firmware files in ruu mode

Stuck on Boot Animation

Hi,
I was following this rooting guide...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guides-bacon-timmaaas-how-to-guides-t2839471
And after I completed Step 2 my phone would no longer boot up. It just hangs while the cyanogenmod bolt logo spins.
I can however now boot into TWRP.
I don't know what to do... I don't think I can copy Super User or Rom Files over to my device currently. I do have an OTG cable with a thumb drive and I plugged it in and I can't seem to access that from within TWRP.
Any help would be appreciated!
Also FYI I'm using Windows 7 for my desktop.

Well, if you have access to twrp, you can do into the advanced setup and select adb sideload. Place the rom in the adb folder and typer: adb sideload 'file'.
Example: adb sideload myrom.zip ; this will flash the rom, which you can then reboot the phone and hopefulyl boot.

Ok so I sideloaded UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip. Thanks so much for your help!
Should I sideload the stock rom the same way? Will that even work? Should I do some sort of a wipe first?
Sorry if I'm asking too many questions... I just want to be careful.

I also notice if I go into the text pane of TWRP it says
Code:
Updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
Full SELinux support is present.
E:Unable to mount '/cache'

General rule of thumb, if you want to flash a flashable zip but it isn't on your phone then do adb sideload. All adb sideload does is just put the file onto your phone to flash it.
If you drag and drop the zip onto your phone then u can flash it without adb sideload.
If you're switching from 1 ROM to the next, always wipe. If its the same ROM but you're upgrading to a newer version of the ROM, then just flash without wiping.

Go into TWRP -> mount -> check cache.

Well asking questions is how we learn, so no worries.
You can flash the stock rom / any file in the same manner. When you start with the sideload you can choose to wipe the dalvik / cache.
I would sideload your rom only at this point [stock or custom] and then attempt to boot into the os.
If that fails: from twrp wipe: everything except internal storage, then sideload the rom again; this way you'll be flashing on a clean install.

Ahh success!
Ok if anyone is having this issue here is the solution:
1. Put your phone in fastboot mode (volume up + power)
2. Plug your usb cable in. Go to your PC and open the cmd prompt from the folder on your pc that has fastboot.exe (shift+right click in folder, select open command window here)
3. Type fastboot format cache
4. Then type fastboot reboot
Solved the hanging/boot loop.

Problem [BOOTLOADER]

Describing my problem :
Since yesterday my OPO did some random reboots. I was running Paranoid Android and it worked perfectly...
Yesterdayevening after it rebooted another time, my OPO didn't start at all... It seems that my bootloader won't load the OS.
This morning, I did a complete wipe and I've put the stock ROM from the CM site back on my OPO ( XNPH33R signed boot).
-Fastboot works
-Recovery works
-Bootloader won't load OS. ( only the One Plus logo pops up (not the bootanimation)). After that it reboots over and over...
Update 1 17:30 5/10/2014 :
I'm in a bootloop, I have no ROM. I have the TWRP recovery. And the bootloader is LOCKED.
So I tried to unlock the bootloader with the toolkit for the OnePlus one. ( I tried it also manually with cmd).
----WHAT IT DOES in CMD/ Phone-------
In CMD : " OKAY [0.012 s]
Finished. total time : 0.012 s
OPO : It opens up my TWRP recovery but it does not unlock the bootloader
Update 2 19:52 5/10/2014 :
I've been able to unlock the bootloader...
with the command " fastboot oem device-info" , I received :
Bootloader tampered : True
Bootloader unlocked : False ( because the toolkit only did " fastboot oem unlock " , I did an adb sideload with a zip "OnePlusOne-OnlyBootloaderToggle" from the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/mod-reset-unlock-tamper-bit-t2820912. Now my bootloader is back UNLOCKED.
I hope the bootloop will stop when I do a factory / reset.
10:40 6/10/2014 :
I tried several times to flash stock roms from the official site / from the forum. None of them 'work'.
Can someone please help me?? He still bootloops!!! How frustrating thazt is,I tried everything from threads on the forum. Nobody is ansering my thread. Any reason for that ?

My suggestion is this: grab one of the recovery flashable versions of CM11S from here, boot into your TWRP recovery and use adb to push the ROM zip to your phone, then use the install function in TWRP to flash it.
To push the zip to your phone you first need to put it in your adb/fastboot folder (wherever you have adb.exe and fastboot.exe located on your PC), make sure your phone is booted into TWRP and connected to your PC, open a command prompt from within your adb/fastboot folder (shift + right click anywhere in the folder, then select open command prompt here), and issue this command:
Code:
adb push <name of file.zip> /sdcard/
*Please note the '<' and '>' symbols are not included in the command.
From there just flash the ROM like you would flash any other ROM.

I still have a bootloop

Have you tried to format your internal sd card and flash your zip. Remember if you format though you will lose everything on your sdcard. Make sure you backup everything first if you want to try this. Also if you do this you will have to push your zip back to the phone

Who can even solve this?...

My internal storage was already formatted. I just have the TWRP and the zip on my phone.
[Q] In the TWRP recovery menu in 'Advanced' what has to be between Copy Log to SD and Terminal Command? There is a blank spot ,there should be button normally?
How is it even possible i have nothing but the recovery and the zip and I still got a bootloop...
Is there somebody that knows something else that i can try?
Is it possible to flash perhaps with odin?

definitely not odin thats Samsung my friend. Partition SD Card is whats missing in TWRP for you. I asked about formatting internal because a similar thing happened to my friend. We had to format internal then adb push recovery and rom and all was well again. If you have tried this recently then my bad but if you have not it wont hurt to try it again in that order
format internal
adb push recovery
adb push rom
reboot
Take a look in here as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061

Bootloop fixed
It finally worked!!! How weird that i already found a zip like on the thread but with XNPH33R and also with the persist and recovery.img and flash-all etc... but it didn't work.
Now i just have to update from the settings
At beginning I was convinced that a bootloop could be fixed with factory/reset would do it. Like it always worked on my previous smartphone.
Thank you playya and timmaaa for the responses!:good: You are awesome! See me sitting here with a

Accidentaly formatted all partions

I accidentally formatted all partition and now only have a TWRP. The TWRP only shows the start screen when i go to recovery.
Adb devices show me the device detected. I did a adb push and moved the stock rom 5.1.11 and my twrp recovery to the sdcard using the command adb push. I am struck here because i cannot get to the twrp screen which gives you option to install/wipe etc.
Can somebody please guide me if there is a way to recover or install the .zip files I have copied to sdcard. Thanks in advance

You need to fastboot flash the default stock rom, and then re root/install TWRP etc etc

Thank you for your response. Will that be adb fastboot flash stock.zip ? I am not sure if this would mess it up hence please confirm. Also, will it work if i use the fastboot to install twrp again and then flash the stock rom using its menu.

You need to go to this thread... https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665
Download the version of OOS you want (5.1.11) and unzip the contents in to a folder and run the flash-all.bat file and let it install to all partitions. Just follow this instructions in the thread and you will be fine.

Thank you so much for your response, but when I run this command I am getting " Waiting for device" option. I am only able to boot into twrp. I see the teamwin loading screen and its struck there. I am able to run adb commands and adb device shows the device details. I was also able to push the stock rom.zip through adb push command to /sdcard.

You need to be in fastboot mode.
Either adb reboot bootloader from inside android or from a powered off phone, hold Volume Up and power on.
