Use twrp to sideload the rom. I think you go to Advance tab in TWRP and choose sideload rom and adb I think the command is "adb sideload <name of rom>".
I can't remember fully. I hope someonce can assist you and correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for the replay.
The problem is i'm on stock recovery. I got it back after updating the firmware.
Now i'm relocked and stuck with the stock recovery.
I thinks first i need to unlock and then flash the custom recovery.
But how to do it while i'm in bootloader and with no OS in place!!
When you are in bootloader, click on Fastboot. After you are in Fastboot USB mode (it will show that on the screen), unlock the bootloader using this tutorial:
http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-unlock-htc-one-bootloader-tutorial/
After you are done with that, you'll need to download TWRP 2.5.0 and place it inside your fastboot folder on your computer, and then open a command prompt window from there (shift + right click and open command prompt window here) and then execute this command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Of course you replace recovery.img with whatever the name of your recovery is, in that case TWRP 2.5.0's zip file.

Now how i can get my OS back to business.
Do i need to flash the stock rom or any rom? and how can i flash it!!
So, i think is better flashing a ruu, like the stock european ruu and, via Revone tool, flash a recovery
You're s-offed, you don't need unlock your bootloader

i'm only a littlle android guy. i hardly manage to get my S-OFF.
would you be so kind to show me on how to do that:angel:
Depends on what you are looking for. Are you trying to revert your device to stock status so you can receive OTA updates? Because that would mean flashing a RUU and relocking the bootloader, as mentioned above. However if you aren't interested in OTA updates (which we don't know when will be available) then go for the easier route, a custom ROM which you flash via TWRP recovery. After you go into TWRP, go to Advanced and choose ADB sideload and then slide to start, then use your computer to adb sideload rom.zip (of course rom.zip will be replaced by whichever ROM you want to sideload).
This is to set up ADB:
http://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/
The proper drivers for your PC to recognize the device in ADB mode are obtained by installing HTC Sync Manager.

He can use the adb push command too...
Ah okay. I am new to all of this so I don't have sufficient information, I was just sharing how I got to fix my device when I was in the same situation.
I used adb push zip file as below instruction:
C:\Android>adb devices
List of devices attached
FA35VW927790 recovery
C:\Android>adb push Android_Revolution_HD-One_9.4.zip /data/media/
3100 KB/s (1017950778 bytes in 320.621s)
C:\Android>adb reboot recovery
C:\Android>
I try to look for the zip file but did not find it?? any ideas
Still stuck at this point.
I tried to adb push it many times but still no success
:crying:
Please guys tell me if im doing something wrong or you have a better way of doing it.

The zip will be there somewhere, I command '/sdcard' instead of '/data/media'.
If you still can't find it just use
adb sideload Android_Revolution_HD-One_9.4.zip
Choose install zip from sideload in recovery and once it's finished transferring it will begin to install automatically so you won't have to look for the zip file

because you wiped your internal storage there is no file structure there, that's why you cant find the zip file.
You'll have to sideload your rom from twrp then boot up your phone which will create the needed directories.
1) update your android sdk. Sideload only works on certain versions of the sdk.
2) Place the rom you would like to flash in the same folder as fastboot and adb.( for you it looks like C:\Android\sdk\platform-tools
3) next from twrp under the advanced tab turn on adb sideload
4) issue the command adb sideload name of rom.zip
good luck

If you use /sdcard then it will work fine, I had the same issue
Victory at last :laugh:

TWRP recovery
1.Tried to adb push /sdcard succeeded on this but failed to flash!!
2. Tried to adb sideload failed.
3. Flashed another recovery CWM.
4. adb sideload file.zip...........success
I don't why TWRP recovery was not responding correctly.
Any way got my phone back to life. and hopefully my experience could help people who made the same foolish mistake!!
Thanks to everybody who contributed to this post.

Maybe you had an earlier version of TWRP which had incompatibility issues with ADB. Anyway I'm glad you got through it. I sure hate being stuck like that as well.

My HTC One M7 is stuck at HTC logo and will not boot further. I've tried many methods, but cannot repair the phone. It's M7 Europe HTC_001 Firmware 1.29.401.13.
With bootloader unlocked I flash cwm recovery and tried to copy custom rom to flash but phone cannot mount usb storage. I tried to flash stock RUU 1.28.401.7, it won't flash because of hboot error. I tried to flash PN07IMG_1.29.401.13.zip using fastboot flash zip. firmware.;zip, with locked or unlocked bootloader, it won't flash, giving error.
Is there any full RUU 1.29.401.17 or RUU 2.17.401.1 firmware out there for download? I think that's my only solution is to get the same or higher full and not OTA firmware. Would it be possible to ADB push custom rom to phone if it can only power and stuck at logo? Or any other solution, please help, thanks.

Thanks for your help but I've tried all that. First phone cannot "mount USB storage" in custom recovery so I cannot copy any file to the phone. Flashing stock RUU is not possible because there is no RUU 1.29.401.13.exe or higher, only OTA. Is it possible to downgrade hboot with s-on and in fastboot mode? Any other suggestion? Thanks.

I've tried to use adb push method but when I put phone to recovery (phone shows red triangle) and run command adb devices, it cannot see the device. Is it because of the drivers?

Thanks for your tips and advice..After many hours of trying, my phone is NOW ALIVE. This is how I did it:
1)Find a custom rom from this forum and rename to rom.zip, of course if you use windows like me with .zip extension hidden then just simply rename it rom (to make it simple and short) and copy it to adb shell folder.
2)After unlock bootloader, flash a custom recovery, find it in this forum or here: http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager
3) Boot phone to recovery, and select Install zip from sideload and plug phone to PC. Wait until phone installs all adb drivers..
4) In adb shell type command: "adb devices" without quotes, of course..to make sure adb sees your phone..You should see your devices name.
5) In adb type commad" adb sideload rom.zip..at this point you should see "sending: sideload....1%..wait until it show 100%..some roms like the one I used, Android Revolution HD One 12 (4.2.2) need to install from the screen, just follow instruction on screen and let it finish installation and wola, it's alive again..
I hope this will help someone who have similar problem with this phone. Thanks for the help from everyone.

If you are using twrp, try "adb push file.zip /data/media/0"
Im not sure what you are trying to do, load a new recovery? You would do that from bootloader with "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Hi an0ther,
I am running ARHD v22 with no problems. Then I try to install V30 in recovery mode - from zipfiles. After that, it only run a cicles in HTC boot logo and recovery mode. I start over again form 1st step to relock my HTC, flash recovery.img etc.
Now, my HTC only work with old recovery.img and ARHD v22. If i try 2 other recovery.img event with ARHD v22 is still not works.
I'm not sure exactly what is going on. We might have a language barrier here. You might have a corrupt Rom file. You said relock, not sure if you are talking about the bootloader which you don't need to do. Unless you are trying to flash stock ruu and you are s-on.

Hi,
I installed a while ago 4.3 GE (rooted) for OTA updates. Everything seemed fine. Today i got the 4.4 OTA update so OTA does work. I rebooted the phone so it could install. The installation stopped after a while and gives the error: no command. After 30 seconds it reboots and gives this error again. Over and over again
I did not make a backup of my data on the phone. The default recovery mode is not available, this also gives the no command error. Fastboot does work.
I'm S-OFF and LOCKED.
What to do?
Someone got this working with Nexus 7 2012. But i need the OTA 4.4 file and ADB sideload needs to work...

Yes, i used the unlockcode. Created a new one via htcdev. Bootloader is now unlocked. Try to reflash 4.3 recovery, flash is ok but still can't start recovery. I wanted to try to start normal recovery and use adb sideload to transfer files from sd to pc. Also tried to flash twrp and CWM but found no solution to transfer my files?
Try fastboot boot customrecovery.img
Also once you are in recovery, your device will show up under adb devices. Then you can adb push yourromname.zip /data/media/

Use CWM if you wish.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
You have to use adb pull /data/media/DCIM/ if your pics are stored in DCIM folder.
This is DEPENDENT on your phone connecting and responding to ADB..

OK thank you, i will try this tomorrow. I also found how to enable USB debugging through CWM . I think i will need that too.
I wouldn't do that. I have no idea what will it do to your phone. If you are not sure of ADB commands you can get in a bind. Unless you are doing a crash course on ADB&Fastboot tonight?

Hi All,
First off please forgive how much of a low level noob I am am at this. I didn't create a backup unfortunately. Now we can get to the good stuff. I have unlocked, s-off, and rooted my phone. Loaded a great GPE rom on there and it was working perfectly fine. While looking for a SU for the Rom so that I could delete some wifi bs I found a the HD rom on this site that I would rather use. Soooo I rooted the rom and used cwm to load up the HD 6.1 rom. After the install, when rebooting, it asked me if I wanted to fix the SU permissions and i clicked yes. Now it is stuck in a boot cycle. When I enter fastboot I can enter commands (no adb detection) I can even flash a different recovery on there and the corresponding logo will flash for a second at the end of each boot cycle. Trying to launch reboot or factory reset will put me into another boot cycle. I have tried using fastboot to load directly into recovery but that freezes the phone 2/3 times. Any help would be greatly appreciated so that I can just go back to the GPE rom i was using and stop screwing around with my phone.

fastboot erase cache
then flash the recovery again (twrp 2.6.3.3 suggested)
then from recovery wipe and adb push or sideload the rom
I was able to get twrp to work by flashing it again, probably the 7th time, and erased the cache. Now I don't think i want to load the same rom that started this but to go back to the GPE version that I had. Is there a way to get this on the internal sd card through fastboot?

I was ablt to get adb to recognize the phone however it lists it as a host. I go into the twrp and do the sideload but it opens up the debug message. adb sideload os.zip is the command I'm using as I renamed the file to os.zip so i don't have to type so much. I tried the adb push but it says error:Closed.

Try this instead
adb push os.zip /sdcard/os.zip

It worked!! Thank you so much. I had tried adb push os.zip /sdcard/ a while ago but it didn't take. by typing the zip name after sdcard i assume that "gives" the file an exact location to be placed?
I decided to try and flash a custom rom as a .zip into my phone without using TWRP to play around. I first went into bootloader mode, then typed:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash zip Cyanogenmod.zip
Failed, error.
I also tried to use TWRP's adb sideload, swiped to run adb sideload, then typed
adb devices
adb sideload Cyanogenmod.zip
Failed,error.
Both times, there was no OS on the phone, I wiped everything prior.
Wasn't able to get either method to work. Am I doing something wrong ? Just like playing around and trying options to flash a ROM outside of TWRP.
I know how to flash .img files individually in fastboot, just not the .zip of custom ROMs.

wrong? yes, very much so. first off, you can not flash roms like cm via fastboot. you use twrp to flash those roms. fastboot is only for flashing the factory image or .img files. secondly, you dont have to use adb to transfer files to your phone. twrp recovery has a native feature letting you move files to your phone without adb.

Oh, so you can't flash a ROM .zip via adb ? I know how to do adb push into TWRP then flash the zip if that's what you were referring to ?
Fastboot cannot flash ROM .zips like TWRP ?

Nope, only .img files can be flashed in fastboot.

nope. or we would just be using fastboot, and not twrp. but we need twrp to do it.

What does adb sideload do ? How is that different than adb pull for moving a .zip into the storage ??
Searching for adb sideload turned up this thread that pretty much has the two questions I currently have:

I did some searching for how to do this but the only thing I was able to come up with was changing storage to USB OTG and installing the files from there. Is that the method you were referring to?

I too am now wondering about what adb sideload does. I thought it was for flashing .zip files, including ROM's. Is that incorrect? Does adb sideload work when there isn't an OS on the phone because USB Debugging can't be enabled?
