I have a nandroid backup.
Its too big to keep on the phone at all times
Therefore its been placed on my computer
And in the case i need it (boot-loop), how can i transfer the backup while in CWM?
ADB seems to be the simplest way, but adb cannot find my device when it is in the bootloader or in custom recovery.
Am i missing something? Or is there another way to solve this issue.
If anyone could help, id be very grateful.
Hi
Greetings,
When you boot in fastboot and connect your phone to pc does it shows fastboot usb if yes then it is recognised if no then you will have to download the drivers if HTC and install them

yes fastboot usb is shown and all fastboot commands work, its just that adb doesnt work when its in bootloader or recovery.
I did some more digging around and found that when the phone is connected while in recovery, the computer recognizes it as a "HTC MTP device"..and thats it. I cant upgrade the drivers of the said device or essentially do anything with it.
What am i missing?
ADB should only work under Recovery. I found that with the last HTC driver it didn't install for when you are under Bootloader, Recovery, or Fastboot. I forgot what version actually worked the best but it might have been the 3 series drivers. Anyway while under Recovery you'll have to force the HTC drivers to install thru your Device Manager. It will not automagically detect them. I would start with these drivers and try them out.
HTCDriver_4.2.0.001.exe
Universal_Naked_Driver_0.72.zip
HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe

Thanks for the reply, ive tried the first two drivers, work fine when the phone is booted, but no avail in recovery. The laptop shows the device connected as "My HTC" while in recovery, but im unable to use adb commands as adb doesnt connect to it. Ill try the third 3 series driver and post an update in a few.
UPDATE: wont install, im running windows 8 and it says this driver is not compatible with this operating system.

Does it say its offline? What do you actually see when using adb. As for the driver in Windows 8, you have to disable driver signature checking to use them. There is a thread in the Nexus 4 forum on how to do this, which is here:

installed the 3 series driver, still the same problem. Heres some photos (which i should have attached originally) of whats happening.
The pictures are while the phone is normally booted, and then when the phone is in recovery.
Edit: Uninstalled all of the HTC drivers and devices inside the device manager, and only installed the Universal Naked Driver, the phone now shows up with a different name in device manager, but STILL does not work while in recovery.
Another pictures attached of how device manager looks with just the Universal Driver while in recovery.
anyone?
i have the same problem as u.. I tried both my missus Windowss PC now.. It used to detect it before. Now it suddenly doesn´t anymore. On my mac, same deal. Nothing detected.
Been googling around and i have found threads but they all end unsolved. ADB returns ADB devices blank. Kill-server or adb remount does nothing. in Fastboot USB its totally a ghost.
found any fixes?
I'm clueless too. I can only think to try other recoveries. Philz CWM comes to mind. I also uploaded the latest google usb drivers for you incase you want to try that out too. Google v7 USB drivers I think they are called. You'll probably have to force install them since they won't detect. Included the adb and fastboot from the SDK too. Last thing I can probably suggest is to try different USB port. Oh and TWRP too since it has the terminal built in it you could try starting up ADB from there.
Me too...
Did anyone ever resolve this? I'm facing it now, having tried multiple recoveries. Previously was able to use adb fine. (I'm on a mac.)

In case this helps someone else: The reason I lost adb was that I'd installed the drivers on my mac for EasyTether. There's a note about this on the EasyTether FAQ page. When I disabled the EasyTether driver, I was able to use adb again.

have you tied all-in-one-tool-kit ???
Not sure if this will help, but I had an issue like this with my asus tab - adb worked fine in android os but not in twrp recovery, device manager showing it as other device.
While in recovery with device connected to pc I followed this how-to from the device manager part on and got adb working in recovery.
ADB not connecting

Re Install HTC drivers manually, windows sees HTC until you boot into recovery mode and try to use ADB, It worked for me.
HTC One(M7) not recognized by adb
Condition:
HTC One(M7) - rooted; s-ON; GPE ROM 4.3.1
Recovery - CWM
I have a similar problem with my HTC One(M7). I'm working mainly on a mac (OSX Maverick), but I have also tried using a PC (Windows 8). I accidentally wiped the data on the phone while in recovery, and now I have a phone that only boots to the bootloader and recovery. Since backups usually take a lot of memory, I kept all of mine on my computer. The simple fix I've been trying to do is sideload the ROM to the phone through adb, however adb does not find the device. I repeatedly get the "device not found". However the device is recognized in fastboot, and i always get the "fastboot USB" when it is connected. So I am unable to flash the ROM I need to the phone because it is unable to communicate with either computer. On the PC I made sure to have had the proper drivers, I downloaded HTC SYNC, and have tried updating them manually. However I always get the "error Code 43". The PC also does not recognize the device, so again I am unable to communicate with the device. Can I plz get any help, I have tried reading multiple forums, but have had no luck trying any solution. I would really appreciate any advise; Im desperate to fix the phone.

Take a look at this FAQ post and see if this doesn't help solve your problems. I would also recommend updating your CWM recovery to the latest.
having a similar problem. My system and everything is wiped all I have is TWRP 2.6.0.1 and I'm trying to end with cyanogenmod. theres no sdcard slot so my only option is an adb push through recovery. Adb doesnt recognize it, it just doesn't return anything in the list of devices when i type adb devices. in devmgmt it lists my phone as a disk drive... I have tried to update the drivers to the universal naked ones, but then windows says that it already found and installed the best driver software I have the T-Mobile variant but I thought I'd post here since this problem is more than likely not carrier specific and I didn't wanna add another thread. I can do fastboot just fine when in fastboot usb mode, but in recovery no adb... I can't install the naked drivers it just says that the file is incompatible

your TWRP is very outdated update to 2.6.3.3
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
Install this driver then plug your phone in and enter TWRP
http://www.mediafire.com/download/j55vk6qbbr6250c/HTCDriver_4.8.0.002.exe
If device manager does not see your phone as My HTC under ADB Interface it's installed wrong.

so i have adb... but now it wont let me flash cyanogenmod... error executing updater binary in zip.... just fails.... help? updated to twrp 2.7.1.1. that fixed the problem
ok, so my phone is screwed.
Been trying touse this thread to recover it - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2325853
I have no SD Card, I can not mount SD Card in Recovery.
I have from what I can tell installed the Android SDK and when doing 'adb devices' I get 'error device not found'.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled HTC drivers and sync, does not recognise my phone. Device manager shows my One but can not find any drivers for it.
I have tried the All In One Tool to sideload, does not work, does not reboot to bootloader etc due to drivers not working.
Basically my phone is dead as, what can I do? Take it to HTC, how much would it cost to fix?
Cheers
EDIT: If i reboot system from Recovery it tells me it does not have root, do i want to root it? I say yes and it reboots to splash screen, nothing else
What operating system are you running?
If you're using Windows 8 search for the thread with the windows 8 drivers.
I accidently formatted my SD card while I had no rom installed. It took a while but eventually ADB picked it up and I was able to push the rom to my device using ADB push (I was also getting the "No devices found" message). This was before I found the windows 8 driver thread, it just randomly started working after many resets of both my phone and computer.
What recovery are you using? Do you happen to have a flash drive and a usb otg cable? This is an other option.

that is easy dont panic
1- if the drivers is not installed properly you cant do anything from PC and send it to the device
if you are using Windows 8.1 there is NO drivers for it,
if its Windows 8 there is NO official driver yet but you can install Windows 7 drivers
if its Windows 7 or earlier make sure its installed correctly if you dont know reply to my comment i will tell you anything you want
2- it happned to me too No Root and NO Rom installed, i simply copied the ROM to a USB Stick and using a USB OTG cable ($1) i plugged the cable to the phone and mounted the cable and then installing it from there,
tell me more about what you have and i will help you
Spent a few hours last night working on this with the help of Matt from here
I have CWM Touch (latest) and he was able to fix the driver issue, and we got sideloading working.
Will push the rom to phone, install, start roms splash screen but go no further. Still no SD Card or missing the mount points to show SD Card.
Attempted to S-Off, failed, unsure if CID 11111111 was successful. (Not CID11111111, was HTC_039 now VODAP21 or similar)
I has told/read an article that if you flash a differnt base (eg ICS to JB) that it will replace a script that handles/writes the mount points..
That worth a try but I believe all roms are JB. Any idea of any ICS roms for the One??
I can not find a RUU for 1.29.980.2 to try, only Nandroid Backups that I can not use as no SD..
EDIT: what does a flashing red led mean too? Cheers
Hello
Few days ago I wanted to flash CWM recovery for my Vivid. Its S-Off and unlocked, running Unofficial CM 11. I wanted to install stock Att ICS version of android but I geting error message on TWR. So my only option is to install CWM recovery. I found a PHxxIMG.zup (xx is number, I dont remeber now) and inside that zip was CWM recovery .img. I flashed recovery with Terminal Emulator and whent I reboted phone nothing heppened. No charging, no lights...Vivid seems dead until I conected to Windows I found that Windows detect device as QHSUSB_DLOAD.
I have found a toturial here on XDA for unbricking Vivid with QHSUSB_DLOAD problem. But, after two days of trying still nothing. Script on Ubuntu Terminal wont find my phone. Evem if I know its connected and Linux see it. Any hope for my phone?
Sorry...
AFAIK your phone can only be helped with a JTAG...

I rooted my One months ago when I got it, installed viper one, and Ive been loving it.
But I havent been updating it, and my viper one was on version 2.7.
I was going to wipe my phone and install the newest version, but something went wrong with the installation and it wouldn't go through, and it somehow corrupted my CWM.
Now I cannot boot back into recovery, and Im in a bootloop.
I can get into bootloader, but thats about it.
My phone is S-ON, and I can't get my PC to detect it to flash a recovery, or anything else.
Ive updated my HTC drivers, and it doesn't seem to be helping.
Edit: it seems that my PC will detect the phone while it's in bootloop, and will go as far as putting the phone into fastboot.
But once Im in fastboot, it no longer detects my phone, so I cnanot flash a recovery.
When you're in the bootloader with your phone connected. Can you see the driver installed in device manager in windows?

What Windows are you using. Use Windows 7 if you can. Windows 8+ can sometime have problems communicating with HTC drivers..
Either update Windows or make a ubuntu live USB/CD

This is my first time to post though I have been reading posts, so please bear wth me.
My problem:
I have HTC One. Everything was wiped out. No Android. When it boots, it goes
directly to TWRP. I want to SU and flash ROM, so I need ADB.
I downloaded ADB and Flashboot on my Macbook Pro. From the forum, it says
I dont need the drivers coz I'm on a Mac (OS X 10.6.8).
I previously tried to make the phone talk (or vice versa) on a windows XP machine.
Downloaded and installed Android SDK, Java, HTC drivers, and all that, but I was never
able to make ADB detect the device (adb devices command wouldn't list the device).
So now on a Mac, it still does not list the device. I suspect that it has to do with USB debugging.
But how can I turn on USB debugging when there is no Android in the phone?
How can I use ADB when USB debugging is off?
Please help. I really appreciate this forum. Thank you.

you can use ADB from a custom recovery (no need to have USB debug on) or within the OS (if any installed) with USB debug ON
ADB will not work from the bootloader, so boot your phone in twrp recovery and adb push or adb sideload a rom
@alray Thank you so much for your response. I went back to my windows xp machine, and both bootloader and adb now can list the devices. i actually powered down the fone and turn it on again using the power and volume down buttons. when it got to the bootloader, windows xp was able to recognize it (showed up in device manager without any error) and fastboot devices listed the fone. when i went to recovery (TWRP), windows xp was able to recognize it again, and adb devices listed the fone. I was able to push an SU.zip file and installed it using TWRP. I'm downloading a ROM and hopefully will be able to install it using TWRP. Will update this post! I am new to Android and flashing and stuff but I'm learning. Thanks!

Why did you flashed SU if you are gonna flash a rom? You have to root the rom so SU must be flashed after you have flashed the rom. And btw, almosy every custom rom are pre-rooted, if not flash SU after the rom!
@alray i was testing adb to see if i could push the file to the sdcard and install using twrp and i did. but yes, it doesnt make sense to SU when there is no rom. The fone is HTC One (AT&T), and im downloading right now a custom rom (google play edition for HTC) which I believe is pre-rooted. I hope I wont encounter problems installing it. But this forum has been very helpful. Thanks!

Like said above, USB Debugging status does not matters in this case. USB Debug is only needed to have ADB access when the phone is booted in the ROM, ADB will still work fine from a custom recovery (not from the stock recovery) despite USB debugging being off. Fastboot commands will only work from the bootloader.
You could either flash a RUU (if there is one compatible with your phone) or unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and flash a rom.
You might want to ask in the HTC One X forums. Make sure to choose the right forum that correspond to your One X variant:
One X - Endeavor (Quad core Tegra cpu): http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-x
One X - Evita (One Xl) (Dual core Qualcomm cpu): http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-x-att
Thanks a lot for your help... I will check the threads too
