Download a ROM for your device to your PC. Mount your device to PC while booted to TWRP. You should see your device's storage show up on your PC. Drag and drop the ROM from PC to your device then flash the ROM with TWRP.

Um

Fastboot not working anymore?

Hi all.
I went to update my Recovery today to a new TWRP.
I have not had problems in the past.
When I boot into fastboot it just says "Starting Fastboot USB download protocol".
The drivers are properly installed and made sure under device manager.
Any idea's guys?
When I type fastboot devices I don't get anything.
Thanks for the help!

Let's talk about ubuntu a minute since fastboot worked before. It appears no one else has said fastboot worked earlier.
Are you running ubuntu on a different computer?
Same computer through virtualbox or something similar?
Same computer different drive or partition?
Try " adb devices " before you reply and include that info as well.
I should have also asked if fastboot previously worked on ubuntu?

the problem is not the computer itself, the real problem is that the tablet doesn't get in fastboot mode...

---------- Post added at 11:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------
ok i solved the problem just now...
1-reboot the tablet in bootloader while connected to usb
2-use vol down to navigate to the usb mode and then vol up
3-the tablet won't show nothing but actually it is connected
4-proceed to any fastboot command
hope this helps
I had this issue when I first started flashing stuff (although I was flashing CWM not TWRP)
In my experience, if you don't see anything listed in fastboot devices, it doesn't matter because it still flashes.
Just try using the flash command (fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash blah blah blah.blah) and see if it works.
You -should- be able to see your device in "adb devices", and that's really what matters.
Also, what matt95 said is exactly what I do. Whether it shows anything or not, I just flash my stuff. Works fine, but I also don't use fastboot alot because with the new changes to the bootloader, one can flash stock through CWM now without having to fastboot flash it.
I'm having the same problem here with fast boot. I want to run NV Flash so I can update to the JB bootloader for CM updates. I've tried simple commands like reboot and nothing works. Any other thoughts?

I'm in the same wagon as all you guys, I just tried that and I can't get into fastboot still. Still waiting for device
---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------
I'm sorted now, I didn't realise that we needed a different command
I was using
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-jb-touch.img
instead of the correct method of using
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery recovery-jb-touch.img
This worked perfectly
it's same as this:
== Part 3 - Install recovery and rooting ==
Let's start with installing the recovery
1) Download these 2 files:
- Jellybean recovery with fastboot files: Fastboot files + JB recovery
- Root files => Root files
- You can also download the new CWM Touch recovery if you don't like TWRP: CWM Touch recovery thread or TWRP recovery and download this file : openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-tf300t-JB.blob
2) Extract the recovery with fastboot files zip and open a command prompt in the same folder of the adb and fastboot files (Shift + Right mouse)
3) Reboot into the bootloader of your tablet, type: adb reboot bootloader
4) When your tablet has reached the bootloader navigate with volume down to the usb icon and press volume up to confirm.
5) To flash the recovery type:
- TWRP: fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.blob
- CWM: fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery CWM-Touch.blob
6) A blue bar will appear and the recovery will be installed, when the blue bar is filled press volume up + power button to reboot into the tablet.
Now we will root the tablet
7) Copy Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed to the internal storage of your tablet. then reboot into the bootloader again.
8) This time you need to select the RCK icon with volume up to enter the recovery image.
9) In recovery flash Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed and reboot into the system
10) Install Supersu from Google Play
11) Open up Supersu, it will ask you to update the binary, choose yes.
12) Now your tablet should be rooted

Tablet Bricked?

Hi Guys,
I think i just bricked my tablet. When I boot the tablet it will not let me use fastboot because it load TWRP no matter if i press the down or up volume also my computer wont read it due to TWRP load. I tried using a SD card but seems that it doesn't mount internal or external drive log: (E: Unable to mount internal storage.)
If any one have any clue how you fix this your help is appreciated.
Thank you
I guess no one have any ideas how to un-brick my tablet.

While in twrp connect the device to PC and run command "adb devices" to see if it is recognized in adb, if so then run command "adb reboot-bootloader" which should boot the tab to bootloader.

Thank you for the reply sorry it took me some time to respond. However when i run adb devices on command prompt it only says "List of devices attached" and nothing more.. it wont even let me do a adb reboot.

you need extracted HTC drivers. Then install manually new driver.for the device as followed--> right mouse button on "Android 1.0" install driver -> Search on computer for driver -> show list -> unmark "compatible hardware" and select the folder with extracted htc drivers. The right device ist called "My HTC". If an error shows its not comatible, just don't care about it and force driver installation.
That should work for you.

FIRST flash TWRP again via fastboot. You should use latest 2.7.0.1. If it works --> good
If it not works --> Restore phone via RUU (should work as fastboot works) Sensation XL RUUs
Make sure you have right version matching your CID and FIRMWARE versions if you flash RUU.
EDIT: Can twrp acces your internal storage at the moment? Have you tried to format it again?
hello again now i have another problem.. ruu program stops after sending.. it shows sending for about 3hours and than it show error 155. what can i do?

use adb sideload and install from recovery :

open a terminal in the folder where you have the rom zip and type "adb sideload nam_of_zip.zip

[Q] Motorola Moto G Lost OS

Hey guys,

USB Debugging : Off
Cannot connect to PC.
Recently, I accidently formatted my Moto G through the advanced wipe and I selected all the partitions to be wipe such as dalvik cache, data, internal storage, cache and system. And now my Moto G doesn't have any OS in it and I can't reboot it at all. I don't have any idea what to do right now. Can someone please help me how can I install a new rom for my Moto G so I can use it like a normal phone again. Please no harsh words, I know it's my mistake and I really need help.

Hey guys,
Recovery : TWRP 2.6.3.3
USB Debugging : Off
Cannot connect to PC.
Recently, I accidently formatted my Moto G through the advanced wipe and I selected all the partitions to be wipe such as dalvik cache, data, internal storage, cache and system. And now my Moto G doesn't have any OS in it and I can't reboot it at all. I don't have any idea what to do right now. Can someone please help me how can I install a new rom for my Moto G so I can use it like a normal phone again. Please no harsh words, I know it's my mistake and I really need help.

If you are able to go to recovery(which you should be able to do), download any custom ROM of your choice like PA, CM, SLIM etc.. flash that rom by following the Installation instructions in the thread. YOu should be able to get the phone back to normal. And if you want the stock ROM, then download the stock files and flash it, you might loose custom recovery, then follow the same things you did to get TWRP in the first place.

I would if I could. The problem is I formatted the whole phone which included the internal storage too. My CM Rom is in the internal storage and it's already deleted. I tried to connect my phone to the pc so that I could transfer a rom into it but failed cause my pc won't recognized my phone as the media transfer devices. It's only recognized my phone as fastboot falcon s. I've installed Motorola Device Manger but it's also failed. I also tried to install using adb sideload but I got device not found error and my phone doesn't listed in the device attached after I typed 'adb devices'. For the OTG and memory card reader method I haven't try yet because I don't have any of it.

What does it say when you try
Code:
adb devices
or
when you reboot to bootloader with phone connected and type
Code:
fastboot devices
If it shows a device for fastboot devices then follow this to flash back to stock. Make sure you download the right stock firmware for your phone.

when I type 'adb devices' it give me an error saying that my device is not found. for the 'fastboot devices', I tried it too but also an error. It say, 'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or ecternal command, operable program or batch file.

It seems like you dont have fastboot files. Follow the same link that i posted in the previous one. It has portable adb & fastboot files. Download that and then follow instructions. You should be able to get to fastboot. Once you are there the job is almost done. Hope it helps
Edit: Here is the link to download and install the minimal adb & fatsboot files

I've followed all the instructions but my phone still not rebooting. When I try to reboot it, it only show me the warning of unlocked bootloader screen, black screen, warning of unlocked bootloader screen then dead android screen. What should I do now?
It means your phone is in fastboot mode and recognised by your PC. Next you'll have to "fastboot flash" the necessary files to install a recovery and a system, and you should be good to go.
Few weeks back I ****ed up soft bricked my phone had kindda same issue when I switch my phone on I get a dead android logo. Gave to the service center in India and got a replacement a new xt1033
P.s I was trying to root and my warranty was void still got a new one try your luck bruhhh
Sent from my XT1033 using XDA Free mobile app

I only want to connect my phone to my pc so I can transfer any rom to my phone so that I can install the rom. But right now, my pc won't recognized it as media transfer that's why I can't transfer any file to my phone. I tried everything. I've installed motorola device manager but all that I got is motorola adb interface that make my phone can connect to the pc when in bootloader mode.I don't have any OTG cable or mobile sd card reader.

Hey, I've done all of the flashing instruction from the xda forum link that you gave me. My problem for now is, why is my phone not rebooting? The only thing that happen after the flashing is my phone only show the 'warning bootloader unlocked' and the dead android with red triangle screen. It won't boot into the stock rom that I've flashed. The stock rom/firmware that I used is correct. Please help me.. I really need to use my phone.

K there's a resolve for this...Provided that you haven't ****ed up your phone by making it hard bricked...
1 - Get a freaking rom and sideload it through TWRP to boot into system...
+ Download a ROM
+ Put it in the same folder as ADB and Fastboot and rename it to something easier that you can type exactly (ex: 1.zip, backup.zip...)
+ Shift + Right Click at a blank field in the window
+ Choose Open Command....
+ On TWRP, go to Advanced => Sideload => Tick the 2 boxes => Swipe to start sideloading
+ Type in adb sideload <yourzipname>.zip on the cmd (on your computer)
+ Wait for the process to finish, then you now have a working phone...
2 - Follow this guide using the proper firmwares that match your original one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219

Your PC will not recognize it as media transfer / storage while you are in bootloader / fastboot mode, its perfectly normal. When you type fastboot devices it should show you a number which means it working as intended. This is an old thread but it shows how to transfer your ROM to sdcard via adb push command. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667929

The output of the "fastboot devices" command clearly shows your phone is recognised by your PC. As I said all you need to do now is use the correct "fastboot flash" commands to restore recovery and system. Tutorials can be found in this forum.
Thank you.
I would like to say thank you to all peoples who help me solving my lost os problem. Thanks for all the informations. My moto G is working perfectly normal right now.
