Help: I Wiped Everything

Good day. I am using viper one ROM and today I mistakenly wiped everything on my phone using TWRP recovery. So I can not boot my phone but I am able to enter TWRP. I tried to push ROM zip to phone using adb to data/media/0 but I cannot find the zip file anywhere, this is strange since the storage size on my phone showed in TWRP changes meaning the file is succesfully copied. My only choice now is use RUU which I never did before. I am coming from Samsung so HTC is new to me. I cannot run ADB sideload, it is stuck on starting when I do this.

I honestly never tried TWRP (though will do so in a minute or two, just out of curiosity), but did you try pushing the rom to /sdcard/ or /data/media/ (no 0)?
I'm downloading TWRP now, just out of curiosity :cyclops:
EDIT: ok, tried TWRP and it seems it does go to /data/media/0 as default, though it seems some files were hidden or I just overlooked them.
Anyway, try pushing to /data/media/ and then in TWRP use the "up one level" or whatever they called it, and you should see your zip there.

you can adb sideload in TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317986
I always just do adb push rom.zip /sdcard/Roms/rom.zip and it shows up fine.

Windows users should already have :

so u did root. u unlocked bootloader. u flashed a recovery and u installed a new rom. one day u start "digging" things to see if u can delete all the unwanted files so u make the phone faster and accidentally u deleted an important file and now it cant boot and it cant go into recovery. you are wondering what you CAN do now ! The answer is : Everything !
You can either go back to stock rom or
you can re-flash the recovery and then reinstall the rom.
1. Download the platform tools for your machine ( windows , linux or mac-os ). Here i have the adb fastboot for you.
2. Copy the recovery image to a location on your computer thats easier for you. The recovery image should have .img extension. If it is in a zip file, extract the .img file from it before proceeding.
3. Connect the phone to the pc and open cmd inside the fastboot folder you downloaded ( windows ). The others not on windows must use cd [path to their desktop,inside the platform tools where they see the adb file].
** If you are on a boot loop but the pc gets to recognize the phone even for a second then
4. Type
i) adb reboot-bootloader
ii) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ( the command is: fastboot flash recovery [recovery image path/filename] )
5. When its done , reboot. Hold Volume down and power button to see if u get in recovery mode. :highfive:
Install the rom now the way you already know. There are many guides for that so i won't make a new.
cheers :good:
**Windows users can use this fastboot to unlock bootloader too. Lite fastboot commands guide provided here
**Linux users don't even need to download it , they can just directly download it from their terminal
I hope this thread helps a little those that dont know what to do when they delete an important file. *Pictures coming soon*

To downgrade to KitKat, download the following file to your PC and extract with 7zip or WinRar: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952608110
Boot your phone into download mode. This is done by powering the phone off, then holding down vol- and power at the same time. Connect the phone to PC with USB. You have to flash all four files with Odin as shown in the following image:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Please be aware that this process will erase any settings, data, and media saved to your phone's internal storage and restore it to its original factory condition, now on KitKat. This process also takes a long time (at least 5 or 10 minutes) and will cause your phone to reboot on its own, and to boot into stock recovery at least once. It is important you leave your phone alone while it is doing so, and definitely do not disconnect it until it boots into the KitKat setup wizard screen.
To apply the security patch, you will now have to flash two files in stock recovery (vol+ and power). First download and extract this file: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891196 it should be named 2400258.cfg. You need to rename it update.zip (yes, this involves changing the file type) and save update.zip to your external SD card (it will not work if it's on internal storage).
Finally, you need to download this file to your external storage and flash in stock recovery: https://www.androidfilehost.com/user/?w=settings-dev-files&flid=37222 Please note this file has already been renamed update.zip. They must both be named update.zip for them to work; since this can be potentially confusing I'd advise you to either save them to different folders, or delete the first one after you're done with it.
Follow these steps and you'll be back on KitKat, with that all important security patch. Good luck :good:

[SOLVED] Stuck on stock recovery, adb/fastboot/flash from sd wont work

Solved: This thread may be deleted, sry for bothering you.
I wasnt aware of how to get into fastboot from the stock recovery: Turn off device (Hold down VOLUME UP, VOLUME DOWN and POWER at the same time for a few seconds), remove SD card (in case there's a ZIP that will get auto executed) and boot into bootloader (VOLUME DOWN and POWER for a few seconds).
Old post:
Hello Community!
I'm stuck on the stock recovery with neither fastboot nor adb recognising my device and flashing from SD card giving me "check cid failed, Invalid operation".
How did it come to this:
Tried out Costum ROMs (Linage & Carbon),
restored old backup with TWRP
thought I'd wanna see the stock ROM,
flashed boot image and stock recovery according to this guide
thought it would be a good idea to reboot
regret the last part cause stuck on recovery.
What does it look like atm:
When I turn on the phone, it will stay in the booting screen for some time (white background, "HTC powered by android"), go black, go booting screen again and then go stock recovery (black background, red rectangle with exclamation mark inside)
So I hold VOLUME UP and press POWER, which gets me here:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Tried them all, check cid failed, invalid operation.
When connecting to PC, Windows gives me the devices recognition sound, but adb and fastboot act as if no connection:
What else did I try:
Uninstalled HTC drivers, reboot, install HTC sync manager, uninstall sync manager but leave drivers.
tried different ports and cables as well as SD cards
I don't get why it won't flash from SD card. I tried with different TWRPs in zip, rar and img format, named them 0P8BIMG.* and 0P6BIMG.*
When there's no SD card inside it gives me an error, so it does recognize the SD card.
Last but not least about the bootloader: I locked and unlocked the bootloader shortly before this all happened, so I guess the bootloader is unlocked. However after all I'm merely a noob in all of this, so what do I know.
Any unbricking suggestions?
