[Q] Pushing recovery to device using ADB... please help!

I have installed the 5.5.0.4 recovery from Koush via Rom Manager. That recovery is broken and it will not let me flash another recovery. I am asking someone who knows how to push a different custom recovery ( like rogue recovery http://bit.ly/ADptUO ) to the device using ADB, to write a step by step guide with all the commands and necessary files to do so. This will help many people who are stuck in the same situation that I have found myself in. Any help will be appreciated, thank you.

This might get you part of the way there. There might be something in there about flashing a new recovery too.

It says to type the command though ADB while in CWR... my device does not show up in ADB while in recovery.

If you have access to the rom, you can copy your new recovery to the internal sdcard. You can also type the command in the rom with adb or terminal, but be careful since anything that you have in the staging partition will flash after you type the commands and then reboot. So, 1) copy rom to the internal sdcard, 2) reboot to recovery, 3) flash new recovery (nothing will happen yet) 4) reboot to the rom) 5) type commands in adb 6) reboot 7) then make a step by step guide for the next person.

[ADB] Trying to backup - Birck? Hope not

Hi! I was trying to backup my Orange Monte Carlo following a Portuguese tutorial but I'm stuck in the middle and I've got no help! Hope you can provide some! These are the steps I followed (translated)
1 - Install ADB Made Easy;
2 - Open cmd;
3 - Activate cellphone debug mode;
4 - Connect via usb (without mass storage) and install drivers if request [it was requested and i installed];
5 - Run adb devices, it should show your device [it did];
6 - Run adb reboot bootloader, your cellphone will boot in Fastboot, wich is an Android image without menus [correct until here];
7 - Run fastboot devices, your device yor a question mark(?) should show up (advance to next step), else you miss drivers [step not completed];
cmd says 'fastboot' is not recognized as a command. Now my phone is stuck connected to the computer with an adriod pick and I have no clue on what to do next!

Don't know where you were going with this but to reboot your phone just pull the battery ..
Not bricked

Thank you! Do you have any idea why the last command doesn't work? I believe it has something to do with file location... I'm trying to backup my Monte Carlo. Next steps were to "fastboot boot recovery.img" and then backup.

It should be in the platform-tools directory of the android-sdk. Verify that it's there...if so cd to that directory and it should work

I already fixed it for myself, thanks! Now I can't seem to be able to install clockwork!
Doing <<fastboot boot "C:\Users\R&J\Downloads\recovery.img">> reboots the device but doesn't enter recovery.
Doing <<fastboot flash recovery "C:\Users\R&J\Downloads\recovery.img">> , <<fastboot reboot>> and <<adb wait-for-device reboot recovery>> results the phone entering android's default recovery (no acess to backup feature).
Any way to help? Thank you!

The first command <<fastboot flash recovery "C:\Users\R&J\Downloads\recovery.img">> is trying to write the recovery.img you downloaded to a recovery partition on your device. It may not be overwriting the original recovery.
try changing permissions by doing
adb shell
su
chmod 777 /recovery
then try to flash again

Lol it seems like I have been luck enough to solve my own problems, I have sucessfully installed ClockworkMod Recovery 4.0.1.4 unofficial MoDaCo Edition using a bat file . Now I can't seem to find a way to flash recovery back to stock. I though this was an option inside the modded recovery. Any tips? Thanks again!
EDIT: I have the stock recovery file . God... this tutorials I'm folowing aren't that noob friendly...

stuck with bootloop and no alternative rom

i have a slight problem. i grabbed the ubuntu touch alpha and went in to recovery, loaded it (according to thread instructions) but ended up with a bootloop.
in the end i thought "lets just put another rom back on for now" and then realised i had deleted the other rom from the sdcard! so i'm stuck with it not booting in to ubuntu, and not able to get another rom on as it doesn't boot in.
can i connect to the internal sdcard area myself by plugging the usb in to the pc or something?
i have twrp loaded as recovery
thanks

ah, TWRP adb sideload to the rescue!

The issue, Superwipe wipes the internal /sdcard/ and also this is where it flashes from.
You need to boot to recovery and then use ADB to push files to the sdcard.
If you have never used ADB, it can be a bit daunting.
First, you need adb from the Android SDK. It is a big file for the few you need. I have a copy of the relevant ADB files here: https://db.tt/b9dQ6xzp
Unzip this to c:\adb folder on windows. If you are using Linux, it should already have adb in the /usr/bin/ folder.
Next, you need the Universal Naked Drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1934814&d=1367674531
Unzip these to c:\universal_naked_drivers
Boot to CWM and then plug in your USB cable. It should show a new device found. It may find 2, an MTP and then there should be another either Unknown device or an Android ADB device. Right click and update the driver. Be sure to search for driver, then tell it you want to pick from a list. Hit the Have Disk button and then hit the browse button and browse to c:\universal_naked_drivers and hit OK. It should show you a driver to select and hit OK. If you are using Win 8, there is an additional step that is required to used non-signed drivers.
Once the driver is updated, download the zip file you want to flash on your PC. I assume it is a ROM.zip file for this example. Place this file in the c:\adb folder and call it ROM.zip (can be named something else, but this is what we will use for this example).
Now, open a command prompt and execute the following:
Code:
> [B]c:[/B]
c:\> [B]cd c:\adb[/B]
c:\adb> [B]adb devices[/B]
It will probably say some messages about the daemon is not running, restarting adb.
Then it should show a list. There should be some numbers followed by "recovery"
If no devices are shown, check that your ADB device is showing in the Device Manager.
Once you see it in the adb devices list, continue:
Code:
c:\adb> [B]adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/[/B]
successfully pushed xxx bytes
c:\adb>
At this point you should now see the ROM.zip file on the internal storage in CWM to allow you to install it.
Choose to install the file then reboot (not to recovery). You have to let it flash the file (progress bar will show). Once the screen goes black and the progress bar disappears, it should now boot to your ROM..
If your ROM requires a custom kernel and/or GAPPS to be flashed, use the same procedure to push your kernel.zip and GAPPS.zip to the /sdcard/ directory.

Can you explain what you did please? what is adb sideload?

Please help , Stuck on Loading Screen.

I try to hard reset but I'm still stuck on loading screen. How do I add a zip file to my sd so I can flash it, since it doesn't even detect my oneplus on my computer? Please help me and lend me your knowledge and power =].

Can you boot in bootloader and connect it through adb and fastboo with your pc? in that case it would be easy to reflash everything

I can boot into fastboot and TWRP but I'm wondering how can I add file into my internal hard drive since it doesnt detect the phone on my computer?

Any help with some instructions would be really nice =] :good:

Do you see it using "adb devices" or "fastboot devices" ?
If not, you must update your adb drivers on your computer and reboot it

right now its on MTP USB Device as my device on my Device Manager, can you link me to the proper usb driver? Because I"m pretty sure I updated it and it was working while my phone is working. Also how can I check if its using adb devices?

Also it said "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date" but doesnt detect my phone?

Anyone still here so they can help me?

So as asked previously, when you connect via fastboot, and boot it into TWRP, do you see it via adb ("adb devices" command in the platform-tools folder)? Did you try adb push <filename> /sdcard/ ?

yes i see adb push , but there's no file there. How can i add file there?

Use an adb push command to send a ROM zip to your phone.

@M I N E, go read the sticky posts in the general section. It will explain how to do an adb push command.
@timmaaa and others have done a great job with some write ups for this device.

Or do a factory wipe then go into TWRP -> Advanced -> ADB Sideload -> Swipe
adb sideload <name-of.zip>.zip (ensure the .zip is in the same folder as your fastboot/adb) and then it'll send the zip over to the phone and flash.
I prefer the adb sideload method as it pretty much pushes the file over to the phone and then flashes it afterwards.
Either method is fine though.
If OP has problems with drivers, I recommend using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386956 they work great.

what is the push load command? How can i push something if i dont have any file on my phone to flash? can you guys type out the command?

Read the post above you that I posted. Use that command as well as the instructions and you can flash a file using adb sideload.

well I try factory swipe nothing there, i check the TWRP , no files is there i mean nothing. And I cant do adb push because my when i type adb devices it doesnt recognized, because how can i turn on debugging if my phone doesnt have any rom?

You're not reading my message properly. I'm telling you to do adb sideload. Please read what I said carefully word-by-word.

The whole point of adb sideload is that you're sideloading a flashable zip that is not on your phone but on your computer and you're pushing the file onto your phone which will followup with flashing the zip.
You need to be typing adb sideload on your computer with the proper environment for adb set up with the proper drivers installed if you haven't already.

Problem [BOOTLOADER]

Describing my problem :
Since yesterday my OPO did some random reboots. I was running Paranoid Android and it worked perfectly...
Yesterdayevening after it rebooted another time, my OPO didn't start at all... It seems that my bootloader won't load the OS.
This morning, I did a complete wipe and I've put the stock ROM from the CM site back on my OPO ( XNPH33R signed boot).
-Fastboot works
-Recovery works
-Bootloader won't load OS. ( only the One Plus logo pops up (not the bootanimation)). After that it reboots over and over...
Update 1 17:30 5/10/2014 :
I'm in a bootloop, I have no ROM. I have the TWRP recovery. And the bootloader is LOCKED.
So I tried to unlock the bootloader with the toolkit for the OnePlus one. ( I tried it also manually with cmd).
----WHAT IT DOES in CMD/ Phone-------
In CMD : " OKAY [0.012 s]
Finished. total time : 0.012 s
OPO : It opens up my TWRP recovery but it does not unlock the bootloader
Update 2 19:52 5/10/2014 :
I've been able to unlock the bootloader...
with the command " fastboot oem device-info" , I received :
Bootloader tampered : True
Bootloader unlocked : False ( because the toolkit only did " fastboot oem unlock " , I did an adb sideload with a zip "OnePlusOne-OnlyBootloaderToggle" from the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/mod-reset-unlock-tamper-bit-t2820912. Now my bootloader is back UNLOCKED.
I hope the bootloop will stop when I do a factory / reset.
10:40 6/10/2014 :
I tried several times to flash stock roms from the official site / from the forum. None of them 'work'.
Can someone please help me?? He still bootloops!!! How frustrating thazt is,I tried everything from threads on the forum. Nobody is ansering my thread. Any reason for that ?

My suggestion is this: grab one of the recovery flashable versions of CM11S from here, boot into your TWRP recovery and use adb to push the ROM zip to your phone, then use the install function in TWRP to flash it.
To push the zip to your phone you first need to put it in your adb/fastboot folder (wherever you have adb.exe and fastboot.exe located on your PC), make sure your phone is booted into TWRP and connected to your PC, open a command prompt from within your adb/fastboot folder (shift + right click anywhere in the folder, then select open command prompt here), and issue this command:
Code:
adb push <name of file.zip> /sdcard/
*Please note the '<' and '>' symbols are not included in the command.
From there just flash the ROM like you would flash any other ROM.

I still have a bootloop

Have you tried to format your internal sd card and flash your zip. Remember if you format though you will lose everything on your sdcard. Make sure you backup everything first if you want to try this. Also if you do this you will have to push your zip back to the phone

Who can even solve this?...

My internal storage was already formatted. I just have the TWRP and the zip on my phone.
[Q] In the TWRP recovery menu in 'Advanced' what has to be between Copy Log to SD and Terminal Command? There is a blank spot ,there should be button normally?
How is it even possible i have nothing but the recovery and the zip and I still got a bootloop...
Is there somebody that knows something else that i can try?
Is it possible to flash perhaps with odin?

definitely not odin thats Samsung my friend. Partition SD Card is whats missing in TWRP for you. I asked about formatting internal because a similar thing happened to my friend. We had to format internal then adb push recovery and rom and all was well again. If you have tried this recently then my bad but if you have not it wont hurt to try it again in that order
format internal
adb push recovery
adb push rom
reboot
Take a look in here as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061

Bootloop fixed
It finally worked!!! How weird that i already found a zip like on the thread but with XNPH33R and also with the persist and recovery.img and flash-all etc... but it didn't work.
Now i just have to update from the settings
At beginning I was convinced that a bootloop could be fixed with factory/reset would do it. Like it always worked on my previous smartphone.
Thank you playya and timmaaa for the responses!:good: You are awesome! See me sitting here with a
