IHi, i've removed my system Os and all i'm left with is TWRP and no backup which i messed up, and the system is not able to recognize the device with adb, samsung or any other driver I tried installing, not able to understand how to fix this
please help !
Hi,
You can mount your internal storage in twrp in the mounts menu. Your PC should then detect the phone as a mass storage device without additional drivers required.
After that, you should be able to flash a rom.

Hi everyone,
I have a Nexus S i9020T that I think I have bricked. What I did is that I was trying to flash a ROM and by mistake I formatted the SD, and USB storage. And since then when I reboot, I only see the GOOGLE sign with a blue bar underneath. I have the clockworkmod working for me but I can't mount my USB storage or SD card to copy any files from computer because the computer does not detect it. I installed ADB properly, and I had PDAnet installed as well. but for some reason when I try to open PDAnet, it gives me errors and asks for reinstallations as there are files that are in conflict or something. and now I have a device that can't be detected on computer but can be rebooted in to recovery. I will be grateful if one of you guys helped me out with this.
here are drivers maybe different than what you have
Was doing to do a fresh installation of Omni on my Nexus 5 and i accidently done a factory reset however also wiped the internal storage so the rom is now lost.
As i cannot boot the phone, i can only get into the bootloader and recovery screen, how can i manually upload files to my phones storage?
Hope you guys can help me asap.
Thanks,
Ed

You should mount the sd card using recovery and then use your PC to copy the zips you need back to your sd card and then flash them. Some recoveries will automatically mount the sd card as soon as you connect the phone and the PC with the usb cable. In others you may have to go into the mounts (or Mounts and Storage) menu and select mount USB storage or sd card.

Try this..

Make sure drivers are working for adb by mounting storage than running the command "adb devices" assuming you have set up your sdk. if your device shows up. Run this
"adb push ROM.zip*/data/media" in the prompt.
If your device is not recognized.
Update drivers manually using the device manager on your computer. You will need to install the drivers. That's easy. Just look up how to. That should fix it with minimal confusion

So, I have/had a N5 on stock 4.4.4 rom, rooted & Xposed installed with TWRP & a lollipop preview on MultiRom.
Was installing the new Lollipop .zip. In an act of hurried stupidity, I wiped my phone, including the internal storage.
Which for some reason also wiped my NANDROID backup. I thought that is not supposed to be wiped even when doing an internal storage wipe, BUT it did.
Now, all i have is TWRP on my phone with no rom installed.
I tried connecting my phone to the pc to see if i can just transfer the rom file onto the internal memory, but nothing shows up when i connect my phone to PC.
after some searching, I came to know via this threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/how-to-wipe-internal-storage-install-t2575150 that i can use the ADB sideload to install the rom, using TWRP.
The problem is, when i connect my phone to the PC, the phone doesn't show up in the device manager.
So i cannot install the drivers & android SDK itself.
So, How do i Install a rom onto it?
I have a PC & a MAC, so i can use either of the machines. But i don't have much technical knowledge about stuff, I did all the above modifications with the help of tutorials & guids. so ELI5 please.
Please help!
Thank you.

Storage = including sdcard. You didn't need to do that.
If you have the latest TWRP, it has an MTP mode in the mount menu so you can simply copy a ROM.zip to the storage. Try enabling it and see if it shows up in devmgr.

Thank you for the reply.
Turns out, the TWRP i have does have the OTG option under the mount option.
I downloaded the zip from an Android Police article. I bought the phone in india & hence had the KTU84Q build of 4.4.4, So i downloaded the file mentiond in that & tried flashing it via OTG. But it is failing to flash the rom.
it shows errors like: failed to mount, Error executing updater binary & then error flashing zip.
So do i need to do anything else before flashing it?
I'm downloading a 4.4.4 rom. will see if that works. Until then, please help if I need to do something else.
Thank you.
EDIT: I flashed CM11 & it worked perfectly. then tried flashing the 5.0 zip again, but that failed. So i guess something's wrong with the zip file.
I have an Alcatel One Touch idol 3_50560 AT&T
I do not have access to a desktop computer is there any roms out there that will do everything for you at once i.e. Removing bootloader, Root phone, then installing TWRP . Is it even possible? I uploaded and put the whole system on my tab4, it had no OS when i got it. Just wondering if spmethings out there
It's not possible. You need to install twrp by PC, then you can do everything what you want via twrp.
Is it possible i can download the file to my tablet and sdcard and transfer to my PC when i get to work?
Yes, and you only need to install twrp via PC. Everything another you can just flash by twrp from sdcard (better option than internal storage)
Hello everyone,
I have a weird problem with my oneplus one currently the device doesn't have any rom installed because I have wiped the whole device and after that when I was trying to install the rom using usb otg via twrp it won't allow me to select the usb-otg as it says 0MB then I thought to install the rom via fastboot method but adb is not detecting my device. I have tested all the available drivers still its not detecting. Is there any way to fix my device.

TWRP supports MTP i.e.,you can transfer Rom zip to your Internal storage and then flash that.

Connect device when in TWRP mode,then head to Device Manager and you should see unknown device there,click on update driver and let the windows search and install mtp driver for you.
