Hey guys! I'd really love a quick response, as I take my classes over the phone.
Basically, a couple weeks ago I flashed AOKP onto my phone. Of course, I made the rookie mistake of feeling safe and deleted my backup of the Stock ROM.
Now, I wiped my whole system thinking that I'd be able to sideload a ROM over ADB with PhilZ Touch 6, yet ADB can't find my device (even with all the current drivers). Strangely enough, my computer is able to recognize my phone with the ADB driver, and I can still use fastboot commands in the bootloader.
But I have no way of installing another ROM! Doesn't PhilZ Touch include a method of mounting my phone as a USB Storage Device?!
Please, anyone, help! You're my only hope!
TWRP Recovery supports USB storage . Flash it via fastboot

Hey there everyone, I have an HTC One S (S4) with CWM on it. I was running AOKP, but Wi-Fi wasn't working so I decided to flash a newer version, which ended up failing (gave me "bad" as the reason). I tried to factory wipe and reset, and then I tried to restore from my original backup, which didn't work.
Now I can only boot into bootloader, fastboot (with fasboot USB), and my recovery. However, I can't access /sdcard, and I can't mount USB through CWM.
Those are the two things I need to accomplish; because if I can access /sdcard and USB mounting, I can get a working ROM on there, which is all I need as a temp fix.
Please help.
Please don't tell me some generic bull**** like people always seem to do.
Side load a rom via twrp or flash an ruu.
Thank You

Thank you so much for responding so quickly Hasoon, I have used your all-in-one to install TWRP, and that seems to have gotten USB and sdcard working.
I just flashed the older (stable-ish) ROM, and I'm rebooting now.
Wish me luck.
Also, I can't express how much I appreciate your work in the android field.
Hello,
I got this HTC One X from AT&T (->evita) and tried to get CM 10.2.1 running on that.
The steps I made:
Boot into bootloader, go to fastboot, then get the identifier, get unlock token via htcdev and unlocked it with fastboot.
I then flashed CWM 6.0.4.6 for evita via "fastboot flash recovery *filename*". Now I booted into CWM (recovery) and wiped everything instead of first trying to copy the cm.zip onto the sdcard. (I also didnt do this when the stock ROM was still running...)
Now I can access the phone via fastboot in the bootloader but I can not use adb or the USB mount when in CWM. Whenever I plug the phone into my computer (or laptop, doesn't matter. Also tried switching between USB 2 and 3 ports!) Windows keeps making the "unplugged" sound every second.
Reinstalling the latest HTC drivers did not change anything.
Anyone here knows a way how I can stop that or get the zip file on the memory? I also tried flashing the boot.img on boot and tested if I can copy the file then through CWM but that did not work.
Hoping,
NyphoX
Not sure if it'll work but try using TWRP recovery instead:

Installed the most recent version.
I get into the recovry and when I plug it into a computer Windows will keep making the "unplugged"-noise.
I can see the sdcard-directory perfectly when I hit install in both, TWRP and CWM but when I want to mount it via USB it will not change anything and I cannot access it on my PC.
adb doesn't list any device either.
Also, TWRP and CWM keep telling me that my phone is not rooted, when I try to power off or restart. Is that normal?
My other HTC One X (non AT&T) just works fine with cwm 5.*.*.*
It's normal for the recovery to inform you that you're not rooted, it'll suggest that you install superuser but there's no point doing that in your case because you have no working OS installed. Did you at any point perform a factory reset from the bootloader? If so, you've corrupted the internal storage (known bug on modified Evitas) and will need to wipe it with TWRP.

Saw that in your Q&A.
I wiped the internal_sd and tested it after but it still did not work. I also tried a factory reset through TWRP but that did not help either.
Both recovery programs keep telling me "E:Unable to mount '/cache'.
Still not working. Q_Q
Update: I got like the oldest laptop I ever owned and installed the most recent HTC drivers there and tried to mount it. It told me in device manager that the "evita" is not recognized. When I let Windows search automatically it installed the drivers and I am now able to access the memory.
I can only assume what the problem was but it seems like the HTC One X (endeavoru) driver and the evita don't like each other...
TL;DR trying to install now. Will edit.
//EDIT: Windows still screws when I plug the phone to the other computer/laptop, so I just have to use the old machine now. Still thanks for your help, timmaaa!
//EDIT: It does work when I booted CM and enable the USB storage at the other two machines.
Hi,
I've got an old Xperia S currently running TWRP 2.7.1.0 (the latest version). I'm trying to install cyanogenmod on there but the recovery doesn't seem to work with adb sideloading and USB OTG doesn't seem to show up. I also can't seem to mount the phone's internal memory to my computer. The phone is wiped so I cannot access the actual system. Therefore, I cannot install a ROM on there. TWRP is the only recovery I could find which worked and so I cannot use a different recovery (unless you know of one). I now have a phone which cannot access any external files for installation and without a ROM. Help.
the sony Xperia Emma software doesn't seem to show the phone in fastboot mode nor recovery mode.
Thanks
Bump, Need help fast :crying:
as you seem to be in hurry. Just a suggestion, search the forum with your device name. hope, you'll find some help regarding your issue.
Hi, I could use a little help. I've flashed a few roms before, but I really got myself into a tough spot this time. I downloaded Slimrom because the one I flashed before that would slow my device down and generally just didn't run as good as I had hoped. I went into TWRP recovery, wiped the caches, flashed the rom and gapps, but it said that the archive/s were corrupt. I have a few backups, but they are all on an external hard drive. I knew I had to get the Android SDK, Java JDK, New ROM, and use adb if I wanted to fix it, but this is where I've been running into a few problems.
I made sure that the drivers for the phone were installed, I kept getting errors though. I looked at the device manager and it shows the yellow triangle and if I try to troubleshoot it says that there are no compatible drivers for my phone. I looked back at the device manager and noticed it connected with the Media Transfer. I can see the device in adb at the bootloader, but not at the recovery. When I push the rom to the phone from the bootloader using adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip. This fails to copy and says there is no directory. Using adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ it fails and says it is a directory. I've tried more than this, but I can't seem to get it pushed/sideloaded onto my d800 G2.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice. I apologize if I have been doing it wrong the whole time, it's my first time having to use adb.
UPDATE: I got it into download mode and flashed the stock KK update. Thanks anyways
Okay, happy post Vday. :good:
So, Im trying to root an unlocked Blu J1, running Marsh. 6.0.
I recently reset it, due to perf. issues & now trying to root.
My setup is Win7, w/ the latest Usb drivers through Sdk & UniversalAdb. I have Usb debugging active on the phone & the device shows at command level with Adb devices & in Fastboot mode**Ive unlocked the bootloader on the phone itself, & then xferred the Twrp.img files different times.
The twrp files were the latest 2 off the site Twrp.me as of 02/15. Its a successful transfer on fastboot, which is good. but when I go to restart, it shows as stock recovery studio_j1_6.0/user/release-keys but not the touch responsive Twrp. ..
I eventually want to use Su or Magisk zip to gain root. The phone remains bootloader unlocked which is good. I've tried the Adb command, adb root, and then went through these steps, -still nothing. Im on the hunt for recent clockwork mod, to try that way, only ones are like '11 or'12.
So, is the stock recovery hard coded. -it doesnt have 2 separate partit-I ran a partit check just in case. I also went to grab the omnirom androidrecovery 6.0 off Github at github.com/omnirom/android_bootable_recovery/tree/android-6.0, but its .zip. And when I apply updates through Sd card update in stock recovery, I get install aborted across the board on any .zips.. Im on the waiting list for Kingroot to add my device. so thats good.
Either way Android SU shows as not rooted once fully on.
Any feedback greatly appreciated.
