Hello,
I've been unlocked and rooted for a few weeks and all has been good. Not sure how I did this but I seem to have now bricked my phone though. I can only get my phone to boot to CWM recovery, not to boot properly. Also - while in CWM I get an error E: Can't mount /sdcard/ .
This means I can't copy a ROM to the phone to flash.
Any other way I can get around this? My phone is an unbranded HTC One on T Mobile in the UK. Any help would ne majorly appreciated!!
Did you find a way around as i m stuck too in recovery cant mount external sd card...

Try with the command:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard
^^if that doesn't work I would try going into recovery and trying to install from sideload
adb sideload name_of_your_rom.zip command on your PC.
Make sure name_of_your_rom.zip is in your folder with your adb files.

Cheers for the help guys - I'll give it a go
Sooooo, possibly getting somewhere.
Basically I can now see the sdcard from within CWM. However - I can't push anything to it via adb.
If I go into fastboot and type 'adb devices' I get no devices found. However - typing 'fastboot devices' does see the device.

You have to use adb command in recovery..
Hmmmm, still the same.
I'm beginning to think I've bricked it. Fastboot commands from Fastboot work, but can't get adb commands from recovery to work.
Wonder if I use a different laptop...?

Reflash the recovery and upgrade your adb with the latest...
Or try the sideload method.
Don't mean to offend, but are you running the commands from within the folder in cmd?
ie. My adb folder is called android and it's on my desktop on my mac so I would type:
cd /users/my_name/desktop/android
before I would write any commands.
Try clearing your cache in recovery also

Your not offending me! I do work in IT but readily admit I'm a NOOB when it comes to Android and ADB.
When I try to sideload I get the same error: device not found error.
I'll give clearing cache and reinstalling the Recovery a bash
No offense taken RedBull, I'll gladly admit I'm a newbie when it comes to ADB (but I am in the right directory).
I'm so close to fixing this, if I could just, somehow, get a rom onto the phone I could flash it and away I go. How I wish the One had a removable card since I can't get the phone to be recognised (error: no device found) when using ADB and Recovery. However, weirdly, I can push different recoveries using AIO kit (but can't use it for anything else). Also weird how FASTBOOT recognises the phone, but Recovery/ADB doesn't
Would a USB OTG cable help? I'm guessing not.

I haven't tried this myself, but ClockworkMod Touch is supposed to support USB OTG:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
As is TWRP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173870&highlight=usb+otg
Just remember to plug everything in before you enter recovery
'fastboot erase cache' before flashing a new recovery
And if USB OTG works i could use it to copy a file from a USB drive to my phone?

Like i said - i haven't tried it, but there is an option to install a zip from external sdcard in recovery, so it may be that.

Use hasoons toolkit, it has option to sideload. Just make sure you select sideload in recovery. I had the same issue but I was on twrp . Hopefully cwm has side load option

regarding the device not found error, check if the adb interface is installed in the device manager. may be you have to install it manually .
Also i had the same issue with the sdcard (not able to access), i have wiped the Data partition because sdcard is included inside (in /data/media) of course you will lose all the files in sdcard.

So I managed to screw up by wiping both my data and my system, so now I have no os installed and no way to flash an OS from .zip files. Is there anyway for me to add a file to my storage and then flash it via recovery?

Download a rom and put it in your adb folder
hold in shift and right click on your adb folder - 'open folder in terminal' or similar (not at my computer atm) should be there
Type
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
Or
adb sideload name_of_rom.zip
both must be done in recovery. If you do the sideload method, choose the sideload option in recovery - once it transfers it will begin to install automatically. 'adb push' will put the file onto your sdcard then install it yourself in recovery.

It says device not found.
What about if you go into fastboot in the bootloader screen and type
fastboot devices
Maybe you need to reinstall your adb files...
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
then you need to install HTC drivers for your phone. If configured correctly you can do adb devices and it will show up.
If you have drivers installed correctly under device manager the phone shows up as My HTC. Make sure you aren't using a USB 3 port if your computer has one.
Reboot your computer. That worked for me. I did the same thing
Also download HTC all in one tool kit. Its a lifesaver.

No, adb must be done in recovery.
Go into recovery and try
adb devices
If nothing shows up you need to re-install/update your adb files and HTC drivers.
If your devices shows up this time then do what I said earlier...
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
You can either reboot the computer or stop and restart the adb service from the windows management console. The driver for fastboot and adb are the same so I suspect it's something with adb server acting up
I'm guessing you update adb files via sdk manager?

Very, since clicking on the micro-otg doesn't do anything. I managed to get sideload working I believe. It's at 40%, hopefully it is sideloading the file.

Hi, guys I followed all instructions after bricking my phone, it only goes into twrp recovery, i don't have an os and i cant put the rom in device via usb since it wont recognize it, But I tried to push the rom via adb and using terminal like this:
/Users/BARKIN/desktop/Android/adb push slimbean.zip /sdcard/
etc, but it wont work, i try listing devices, it says no device found..
I USE a mac btw, help me out?
Since you have twrp find adb sideload and do it that way. If you need more info Google adb side load twrp.

With adb sideload it does not matter it will work as long as you can use adb commands
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
So, step by step:
-Boot phone into TWRP
-Select Advanced, then ADB Sideload, swipe to start it
-Connect USB to Mac
-Launch command prompt on Mac
-"adb devices" should detect the phone.
-"adb sideload slimbean.zip" should flash the zip
Hey everyone,
So about 1 hour ago I attempted to install a kernel onto my rooted HTC One through Team Win Recovery Project. I got onto the kernel and loaded it
Once I was finished i went to reboot my phone and it shows the HTC splash screen and does nothing. I waited but with no response.
I got back onto the recovery screen to find out i no longer had an OS.
My computer (Windows 7 64-bit) cannot detect my HTC One. I have a couple of save backups i had done through TWRP available on my computer, but not on my One.
I have attempted to boot into the HTC screen (Power + Volume down) and tried a factory reset,but it just sent my back to the TWRP.
How can i reload my OS? Im not very experienced with android so step by step instructions would be just great.
Thank you very much
Also, i forgot to mention. I was running the stock ROM.

Since you can still access recovery..
1. Find a guide on how to 'adb push' or 'adb sideload' a ROM to your phone.
2. I'd recommend a ROM that doesn't require AROMA installer, it makes it a little easier. For now, CM 10.1 will be fine.
3. Once you can access your phone again, put your backups onto your phone from your computer.
4. Restore your backup in recovery.
Or you could just buy a USB-OTG cable and put the backup on a USB and restore in it TWRP.

Or, instead of redbull's approach, you can boot the phone into recovery, then (after reading about how to install and run ADB), use "adb push" to push the recovery files to the phone:
Code:
adb push /path/to/TWRP /data/media/0/TWRP
If that directory doesn't exist, you can probably push to /data/media/TWRP instead. After this, you should see your backups in TWRP and can recover them.

I have tried both methods now.
For redbull's approach, as i try to put my phone into ADB Sideload mode through TWRP, TWRP simply says Starting ADB Sideload Feature... but does nothing. I have left it for a little while to no avail.
I have noticed when i put in the command "adb devices" it shows my device as a "host" and i checked on another thread and i believe it should show up as "device". Any ideas?
Worst case scenario i will have to wait a few more days for my OTG Cable to arrive from eBay and then hope that it works from there.

Once you start the sideload, that's when you command 'adb sideload name_of_rom.zip'. Make sure the rom zip is in the same folder as your adb and fastboot files. Or 'adb sideload ' then drag your zip into the cmd window.
Also, if you're using a usb 3.0 port - they have been known to cause problems.

YAY
Thanks. Finally got my phone running on CyanogenMod, and I was able to get in a factory reset to remove all the data etc from the old rom.
Just a final question though XD
On TWRP I go to the restore option but I don't find anything there. I have put the backup folder in /data/media/0/TWRP but it doesn't appear in the restore option. Any idea of where i should put the files?
Thanks
/data/media/0/TWRP/BACKUPS/
There will be another folder inside the above with a random string of alpha numeric characters. The backups are inside there.
If you perform a backup, you will see its location. Then you can place any others in there also.

Hi,
I've looked everywhere for a solution but couldn't find one that helped. I was trying to flash a mod via TWRP custom recovery (followed all the instructions, wiped dalvik cache etc) but when rebooting, |the phone got stuck on the HTC One logo. I can access the custom recovery but when trying to mount storage, computer -running Windows 8- doesn't seem to do anything. Also made the mistake of not making a nandroid backup beforehand, so just need to be able to flash a ROM. Tried to adb push the file, but it gives me the error 'device not found'.
Delete... Sorry, I did misread it.
A lot of people have issues with getting drivers to work on Windows 8. Probably easier if you know someone who has Windows 7 and install the drivers on that

Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Maybe you could try this one here, solved this problem for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
You can check if adb can find your phone with "adb devices". If there is none, you have to check your drivers again.
I then used adb sideload in TWRP. Start it when connected and type "adb sideload update.zip" (or whatever your zip is called). He will load the file to your root /data directory. You can install the zip from there then.
Thanks
Thanks for the answers! I'll try using another computer that's not running Windows 8 - I have a feeling its a problem with the drivers.
Same problem here, when i type fastboot devices the serial appeared but i cant push files like the stock odex rom, cant, i found out i cant access my internal memory, is there a solution for that?
Thanks!!
