I'm having serious issues with my N1 since receiving it back from HTC for a repair. I had rooted the phone before it was repaired for a crack in the glass, but the repair center had re-locked the bootloader. I followed steps the way I had done before to root my phone and succeeded in re-unlocking bootloader but when I did superboot (using mac terminal) did not come to screen where root permissions were offered... booted phone, no wifi signal, did not recognize sd, very glitchy, unstable and maybe worst of all unable to mount to computer. So I don't know if anyone with this small amount of information would have any clue as to what I can do. Oh yes and when I had gotten my phone back from repair center I had done update to FRF91.. so I know I'm an idiot for trying to use superboot when there isn't one for the FRF91. There you go gentlemen. If someone is willing to help I can provide any other information required.
As long as you can get to your recovery screen, you're not bricked. Most important, are you running a custom recovery like Amon_RA's?
Edit: If you have a stock recovery and want the superuser/unsecured boot use the updates from here
-If you have a custom recover just flash a ROM that includes superuser/unsecured boot
*Always do a Nandroid
I didn't have it before I unlocked my bootloader, and I can't seem to install it considering that every post says you put it on the sd.. and as I said I cant even mount my phone So apparently I'm on stock..
Micro SD adapter?
That does make things interesting, the only thing i can think of is getting a Micro-sd adapter and putting the update on the sd, then place the sd back in your phone and flash.
Thread moved to Q&A.
Can't you adb push the file while in the recovery menu?
I can't flash if I can't mount my sd card right? So that would make the ROM with superuser useless.. Can you think of a way I can get Amon_Ra recovery through bootloader?
I can't flash if I can't mount my sd card right? So that would make the ROM with superuser useless.. Can you think of a way I can get Amon_Ra recovery through bootloader?
I've heard about this but I'm a total n00b, don't know how to..
I was referring to the adb push.. any help with this would be GREATLY appreciated!
ADB method
If you still have the adb ability try fastboot flashing...just follow the steps here
Emul8tor I really appreciate the continuing advice- home from work now.. I can't seem to get adb if i have done everything correctly working on terminal mac os.. have android sdk and i should be running it under sdk/tools dir correct? i type in adb or adb devices and I get adb: command not found..suggestions?
Have you used the adb method before, kinda sounds like you haven't set the PATH for your environment. I don't have any clue about the set-up for Mac, but theres a tutorial here
okay going to read through this again especially part on creating the PATH.. back soon
really don't know what to think I have no idea how to create a .bash profile and I'm not so sure this is why adb isn't working. Thoughts?
and I didn't use the adb method before.. only fastboot
found this by googling, adding tools to your path lets you run Android Debug Bridge (adb) and the other command line tools without needing to supply the full path to the tools directory when typing commands in Terminal
Dude this guy's having the same problem as me, I guarantee you he used the wrong version superboot with FRF91 http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-nexus/127689-please-help.html
I'll bet he can't mount sd card either
Alright I ran adb command but it isn't registering the phone after list of devices attatched. But it did issue a string of commands after so I assume it is working... Now i guess I can say that I am truly scared because my adb doesn't even recognize the device.
Just a hunch...is debugging enabled on your device?
My friend has HTC One. He wiped all the data on SD including the ROM files and One is not booting right now. It's rooted and has Trickdroid's 4.2.2 based ROM.
We tried lots of things so far;
- Pushing files via ADB
Trying ADB, it says device not found, no matter we did we couldn't manage the pc to recognize the phone.
- Mounting SD via CWM
I have HOX, when I enter CWM I can see the option to mount the SD but on One there's no line like this.
- Activating Sideload on TWRP
We also flashed TWRP and tried to use Sideload feature but when we tried to activate it, it says something like "unable to mount .."
- Flashing the RUU
And lastly we tried to flash the RUU, we checked the CID and it says o2___001 and there's no RUU for it.
I just saw that One could be S-OFF and got Super-CID, but to do that again, I have to pull and push some files via ADB so we stuck here.
Could you plese help me on this?
Try cwm recovery it has sideload feature I was in a similar situation once before and it worked using cwm recovery
Also. If you want to try use adb again, try to plug in your device and then wait for few seconds before running a push command. It worth mentioning that once adb fail one time, it is not going to work again by repeating the same push command. Once it fails run this command: adb kill-server
This command will stop the previous failed process after killing the server then try to push again

We tried a different computer and solved the ADB problem, then I did just like you told and it's OK now.
Thank you.
You're welcome. glad it's all all OK for you
Boot TWRP, then select “Mount”, then select only “Data” and connect your HTC One to your computer.
Considering you have adb.exe (Windows, part of fastboot.zip) or on Linux:
cd Downloads\ROM.zip
adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/
Replace ROM.zip with the ROM filename you copied earlier to Downloads (or any other) folder, then install the ROM.
It should be nearly same running CWM recovery. Hope that helps.
Same problem as you --> fixed
I was able to recognize my device in device manager when using fastboot, but wasnt able to recognize the device as soon as I switched to recovery mode.
I found this universal driver which would recognize both: download.clockworkmod.[com]/test/UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi
(remove brackets from [.com] above)
I was now able to use adb sideload to transfer the .zip to my sd card and flash my new rom.
Hope this helps anyone else.
If you found that adb worked from a different machine, you might check whether you had any tethering drivers installed (eg EasyTether) on the machine that was not able to see the phone via adb. I found that they interfered with adb's operation on my Macbook previously; it was maddening.

if you have problems always use Hasoon All-In-One_Kit for HTC
Am having the same issues, have tried everything I can think off and everything google has suggested. I'm beyond stuck any and all help would be greatly appreciated
my bad exp
I don't know if that help anyone but I had the problem "device not found" when I was trying to side load with HTC AIO KIT.
I removed all my drivers for htc from the control panel and installed only the htc driver (binary100100.googlecode.[com]/files/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe). Then the adb started to work. (after the htc drivers install you need to restart your OS)
When I installed new ROM and reboot the device it showed me the screen with the developer's rom. I thought that I failed and flashed new rom then suddenly the new ROM after one minute started to work. So looks like that I should wait long enough for the first and may be it would also starts to work.
Was he by chance having issues charging his phone before he wiped it?
Myself and my brother both a had issues with the USB port going. Couldn't charge while phone was on. PC wouldn't pick it up so no adb. However was able to pickup fastboot and charge while in fastboot mode.
If that's the case you could try running a zip in oemRUU mode just to get an os on there.
Is he soff?

This worked for me. Thanks!!
Once I removed all the extra crap from control panel and used the latest I was able to do adb devices successfully from bootloader / recovery.
I was just having the same problem on the new LG G2 (D803). It was perplexing because the computer *bleeped* every time it attached so I knew that it saw something. Based on the tips here I went to the Device Manager and sure enough there it was... I reinstalled the drivers inside device manager and then I got an easy adb hit on the phone... hmmm :fingers-crossed:

This worked for my Nexus 4 and TWRP installed. Running the ADB sideload commad from TWRP did not, and just trying to push or sideload from command prompt on PC (Win 8) did not. I had drivers for Nexus 4 recognition installed previously from Nexus Root Toolkit which worked when the Nexus 4 was booted into system, but did not recognize it when wiped and/or in recovery mode. Loading these drivers the Nexus 4 was recognized in recovery mode, and I was able to push the ROM and install using TWRP.
Thanks much!

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.

Just because you wiped it, shouldnt have anything to do with the PC not recognizing it. Reboot PC, just in case and try again. (Was adb/fastboot working before? otherwise you may need to update your drivers).
Another way would be to use an OTG cable to flash the ROM directly from a USB stick.

Unplug your phone
Reboot the phone and the PC.
Make sure your phone is in recovery mode.
Make sure the adb files and drivers are up to date.
Plug in the phone.
Open a command prompt in the folder that has your adb file.
Type:
adb devices

After rebooting for a cyanogenmod update which failed to install, my phone will not boot into Cyanogenmod - only clockwork.
I have precious data on the phone that I need to extract, mainly pictures.
ADB only recognizes the phone as "offline" and I cannot pull any files from it.
Any suggestions? Thanks a lot guys.

Also is all your drivers properly set and updated on your cumputer? Can you post a screenshot of Windows devices manager with the phone info?
Are you using the original usb cable? Some usb cables only have GND and 5V pins (no data). Also be sure to use usb 2.0 and a usb port directly from your motherboard (not in front of your computer) and don't use any usb hub.
Well I got it recognized by ADB now.
What is the file structure like in order to pull files from the phone?
What commands can I use in ADB to pull the main sd directory?

If anyone ever finds themselves in this situation, make sure your SDK packages are updated to the latest Android OS version. This is why ADB was recognizing my device as offline.
Also, running the command adb pull /sdcard/ C:<somewhereonyourPC> will pull all the data from your HTC one.

oh nice to see adb pull /sdcard/ C:<somewhereonyourPC> was the right syntax :laugh:
For the sdk packages you should always make sure it is updated before doing anything to the phone. Same for drivers. An ''adb devices'' and ''fastboot devices'' won't hurt before messing with the phone to make sure everything set correctly.
Now I presume you'll be ok to flash your rom again?1
