When I boot into recovery and try to install zip, it does nothing ( on external sd card)
So I tried via adb sideload, I see the file gets send... but nothing happens.

nvm I used my pc's device manager to work adb
I did something stupid like this yesterday. If you have a recent enough TWRP, you can use the Advanced-> sideload app option with adb to download a rom to where you can install it using twrp.

All you have to do is put the rom zip on your micro sd card, then TURN OFF your device. Now boot into twrp then select install by browse to the micro sdcard to select the rom zip file.

I had a very similar 'No OS' problem and I wasn't sure if I would be able to reboot into recovery but thank you for answering my question!
So I was able to root my phone and got clockworkmod recovery flashed to the phone, and it boots to it fine.
But something isn't working right.
I notice in clockworkmod rom manager it shows that I have both recovery ROMs installed. And I can try to have it install the TWRP, which it says it does successfully.
But it always boots to CWM recovery.
Any ideas??

Did you install TWRP using Goomanger?

Hi,
I am quite new to this but have done everything i can to solve this problem. I have a HTC One S (s4 version).
- i have unlocked my HTC via HTC dev.
- i have installed Clockworkmod recovery.
- i have sent a Cyanogen 11 zip file via ADB push command.
- i tried to install the rom but i had status 7 error, didnt work.
- i flashed TWRP2 recovery instead of Clockworkmod, via fastboot on my pc.
And now; i reboot to TWRP recovery, ADB push my Rom again to /sdcard/, this works. I go to install, i can select the zip file, it asks me wether i'm sure i want to install it, i proceed and then get the error "E: Unable to mount '/internal_sd' " "E: unable to mount stoarage".
So i have root acces, ADB works. Fastboot works. But installing a rom doesn't work with either Clockwork or TWRP2.
Versions used are TWRP 2.7.0.0 and Cyanogenmod 11, a snapshot version.
How to solve this?
Thanks
Try fixing permissions from twrp, if it doesn't help try wiping sd via twrp
Sent from my One S
How about using a usb cable to transfer files to you storage?
Twrp 2.6.1.0

Solved? PM me if still need help.
what i did -->
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash cwm via "fastboot flash recovery recovery.zip"
3. Boot to recovery
4. Factory reset
5. Flash cm zip from sd card.
what i got -->
1. "E:Can't open /sdcard/cm.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted."
Then -->
1. Rebooted, copied again, booted to bootloader
2. selected recovery
Now -->
1. shows the android mascot with its lid open and "No command"
2. no cwm (where did it go ?!?!)
Everytime i flash recovery, it boots the first time (till the time I've not rebooted after flashing recovery) and still won't flash my zip file, and then the recovery won't show.
EDIT (FIXED)
WHAT WENT WRONG...
1. Was using CWM (When i was last active in android flashing, twrp was just another custom recovery, cwm was needed for cm)
2. When i did use TWRP, it was an older version, and did not work (did not even boot to recover, in fact)
3. When i did get twrp working, i used a bad cm.zip file (corrupted)

first mistake here is u used Flash cwm via "fastboot flash recovery recovery.zip" which is wrong u need to use .img after recovery but not zip so try once again and flash latest twrp as cwm support is ended

Thanks for the promt reply mate. Actually it was recovery. IMG only, not zip, i typed it wrong here otherwise the recovery wouldn't have loaded at all, as mentioned earlier. Moreover, I did try flashing twrp, but using twrp, I can't even get recovery to boot once (which does happen on cwm 6.0.4.7)
P.S - can it anyhow be related to bootloader ? I am on stock Lollipop. And device is dual sim (xt1033)

If u r on stock lollipop then u boot loader is already upgraded and its good for twrp recovery can u try flashing twrp v 2.8.6.0 and check it out using adb if it is already rooted then try flashing by flashify and let me know

Ok did that. When it booted to cwm (which is all i can manage to boot to, if at all) i selected root phone option. But it didn't root actually. Then i rooted successfully using cf auto root. Then used flashify to flash twrp image, and now when i select recovery from bootloader, it boots normally, not even showing the "no command" screen. (And yea, I'm pressing vol up to select, not power)
Update -- Ok flashed 2.8.6.0 and now boots to revovery (even after a restart) but still can't flash cm. Something pops on screen for a fraction of screen and then recovery reboots. It says "no md5 file found". Any chance of zip being corrupt ?
Update 2 -- Now my internal memory has stopped working :/ can't even take a screenshot, nor a photo. says memory full. Doesn't even copy file to memory when connected to pc. Although in recovery mode (twrp) , with usb mounted, it does copy.

weird did u flash normal recovery or gpe recovery ? U have to flash normal recovery and one more thing are u sure that its going into cwm recovery ?
May be the ROM is corrupted buddy download again and flash or try other Roms
Haha. After a hell lot of effort, i did get TWRP installed, and after breaking my head on why cm nightly won't install, i downloaded another one, and it installed fine. Now rocking CM 12.1 (4th device which I'm using on CM, and yet never had so much trouble getting it running..)
Hello. I've a trouble about installation. I've unlocked my device and try both twrp and non twrp custom recoveries. But when I try to install a zip, cmw doesn't work and it simply restarts itself.. So what's the problem for this issue? Thx

Download FlashFire from the Google Play store and insert the recovery.img (TWRP) into the recovery option and flash. Then when it asks to reboot , tap yes and you should be booted into TWRP recovery. ( you will need root for flashfire). :laugh:
