[q] htc one xl wont connect need help asap

HI XDA,
After flashing a early version of sense 5 rom for my phone, twrp doesnt install any other roms. And after accidentally deleting my back ups, i cleared my rom and now I have no OS. To make it worse, my phone doesnt connect to the computer so i cant load any other rom on. I NEED HELP PLEASE ASAP

What version of TWRP are you using?
Also, you need to work out why the pc can't see your device. Did you factory reset in bootloader?

Okay i have twrp 2.3.1 and after doing factory reset, my sdcard wont mount and it is still not recognized in the pc

Go into recovery, connect your phone to pc, select mount usb storage, find it in my computer on your pc, format it to fat32 format. Now it will be usable again.

Great! it worked. Now my next problem is I can't flash any JB rom it seems like. I always get a failed error. I flashed a PA Android rom from 2012 and it worked however the rom itself was completely unable to use. The keyboard didn't work, the hardkeys didn't work.

What hboot version is your phone on?

No OS installed on oneplus one. PLEASE HELP!

So while I was testing a kernel my phone wouldnt turn on anymore, it was getting stuck on the boot loop, so I tried a lof of things but still didnt get it to work, finally I wiped all the partitions, even the system, I am available to use TWRP and fastboot mode but it says theres not an OS installed. Im very frustrated as its been a few days already without phone.... So i would be very thankful if you could help and please be very specific since my english is not very good, I am learning, thanks again.

If you connect your phone to your PC while you're booted into TWRP you should be able to copy a ROM zip from the PC to the phone.

Ok, you'll need to use fastboot to flash the stock images then. You have fastboot access, right?

Opo "no os installed"
I was flashing CM12 nighty on my OPO. Accidentally I wiped the whole system in recovery i.e I factory data reset my phone. Now when I boot It says NO OS INSTALLED. when i connect my phone during recovery it comes in the disk drives as "One". When i open it it has a folder named TWRP and inside that a file. I also have a nandroid backup of the phone when it ran SuperSU binaries on my PC. Can i transfer the backup to my phone via USB and restore them in recovery? Would that work? I tried adb sideload ROM.zip but after that command lot's of coding appears in CMD and then nothing happens!! So i just wanna know if I restore the nandroid backup would my phone work? I have TRWP installed! Please any help would be appreciated! Plzz help. :crying:

Put your .zip in the TWRP folder. It should show up on your phone.

Beginner flasher who may have screwed up and needs help :)

Hi there,
So I tried flashing my phone and unfortunately I seem to have wiped everything as I cannot even load anything from my local storage.
The phone does load in recovery mode and even fastboot.
How can I flash the phone without any ROMS currently on the phone?
Any help is appreciated!

Well here is what you need to do.
Download the latest fastboot ROM for OnePlus one from cyanogen os site from the support section.
Follow the fastbiot guide by Heisenberg to restore your device

There is no need in fastboot flashing the entire phone, as it seems that you have just wiped the entire phone from within recovery. Just download a rom of your choice (preferably the latest cm13 nightly) to your pc, then boot into recovery, attach phone via usb to pc, copy rom over to phone, flash rom, done.

No OS installed message in twrp in ONE plus one

HI All,
Post this week, i tried to flash the lineage 15.1 in my One plus one using TWRP. Actually, I want this to be clean flash, so i wiped cache, system & Data except Internal storage. When I flashed the ROM, I got ERROR 7 and eventually it was failed. So i tried to reboot my mobile and in reboot screen I saw this message "NO OS IS INSTALLED ARE YOU SURE TO REBOOT"? and when i rebooted my device, its showing ONE PLUS logo and Android logo. Also, whenever i tried to connect my device to laptop, its not getting detected and it showing message" as malfunctioned. Above all, to the height of stupidity, I didnt take a backup before I flash this rom.
Please someone help me to resolve this issue.

TWRP version?
can you connect your phone to a desktop/laptop?
if possible , then just download the rom of your choice, copy it into your phone's internal storage. and flash it.

Thanks for the reply .
TWRP version is 3.0.2-0. And my device is not getting detected when i connect it to laptop. And OTG is not detected in TWRP.

you will need TWRp 3.2.1-0
no roms in your internal storage?
guess you will need to find a desktop/laptop which will recognise your OPO.

Try booting in your recovery. Normally your PC can detect the device as USB storage. Than copy the actual recovery (I think it's version 3.2.1) and the zip file of your rom to the device.
Then install the new recovery from within the recovery.
Reboot in to the new recovery. Install your rom and reboot.
Sorry for not giving links to the latest recovery. But in not at home. Hope I could help.

Eh.. You're welcome? lol
Driver issue? 15 second adb installer kicks ass when getting your system flash-ready.

lucky you.
take this as a lesson learnt.
always keep some roms/gaaps in your internal storage so that you can flash from twrp in case a similar incident happens in future. or make sure you have an OTG cable+USB thumbdrive which you can use if a PC is not available.
Use the official TWRP 3.2.1-0 and update when available.
Keep a nandroid copy
KEEP A COPY OF YOUR IMEI/MODEMS SOMEWHERE

[Help Thread] PC not recognizing my phone

So the story is I was trying to install a new rom into my phone (evolutionX for Redmi Note 5) and it kept getting stuck on a boot loop I tried leaving it there but two hours later it wasn't working, I tried to restore a backup I thought I had but it wasn't there and when I tried to adb sideload etc it wasn't being picked up by my computer. I have everything installed and still nothing happens aside from the phone charging. so now the phone is bricked and I have no idea how to fix it due to my pc not recognizing it

What method did you use to install the ROM?

through twrp, though it doesn't matter much as I've wiped the device clean so there is no bootable rom

Flash your ROM again. Put the ROM and Gapps on an external sdcard or a USB stick boot into TWRP and flash the ROM from sdcard or USB.
