4. Enable adb sideload
5. Copy a flashable zip of any custom ROM you want here in xda into the same folder as your adb.
6. Open command prompt and navigate into your adb folder.
7. type the command
adb sideload <filename of the ROM you want to flash>
Click to expand...

Exactly what I was thinking BUT you did it in the wrong order, you have to wipe the data, dalvik cache and the cache partition and then do sideload.
Order is important or the device will not go anywhere.

Wiping data & cache is fine in any order as long as you wipe it before you boot the phone on normal mode It won't have any issues as long as you're still in recovery.

He can also copy the rom into sd with the code:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
and flash it

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Hi,
Im not sure if this works the same way like on HTC One S in example, but can't you just flash the stock rom using the related flashtool (or fastboot). Then root and install whatever you want...
Edit : I did this on several HTC phones I got for repair and it should work the same way - assuming HTC already released an stock Rom package.
I will do some research and report back. You can pm me and add me on gtalk.
Edit again: I found a stock rom package.

If you don't do the wiping first then a few files will be left over and you could wipe important files of that new custom rom.

Ok, that worked it's relocked now.
Now what?

Hmm I get a different error now "signature verify fail"

Since I can't flash from fastboot I tried taking the rom.zip out of a RUU (RUU_GOLF_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1_Radio_10.08.98.09H_1.05.98.08M2_release_260338_signed)

Apparently I can flash the rom from fastboot, but it fails:
Do I just need the right one?

After locking the boot loader unlock it again and try telling cwm or twrp

1. UNLOCK BOOTLOADER
2. Download Hansoon2000'sToolkit (look in the dev section)
3. Extract the data folder to Desktop
4. Put TWRP recovery.img in the data folder (or whatever you names it)
5. Boot Phone to Boot loader and press Power button Once so it says Fastboot USB in red*
6. In the data folder where all the files are hold Shift and right click and empty space (nothing highlited) And selected "Open comamnd window here"
7. Type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8. Press Power button again when it's finished so now it says USB Plug or something
9. Use volume buttons and go to boot to recovery
10. Go to mount, mount USB Storage
11. Put Rom and Gapps on the SD card
12. Unmount, go to wipe and wipe cache, system, data, dalvik cache (Doesn't matter which order)
13. Flash the Rom, and then Flash the gapps < Suggest CM10 first to get booting, then switch it up afterwards
14. Once Flashed go back, go to advanced and click "reboot bootloader"
15. When you have fastboot USB showing again, Download NOPE kernel V2/2.5 (2.5 not tested) use the 750 incase you cant boot high OC's
16. Place the boot750.img in the data folder again
17. hold shift and right click in an empty space (nothing highlighted) and click "Open command window here"
18. Now do fastboot erase cache
19. Then fastboot flash boot boot750.img
20. Fastboot Reboot
21. Enable WiFi, then Reboot.
* If it doesnt recognize the fastboot then your drivers aren't installed..
Easiest way your gonna get

[Q] Bricked after OTA Update?

Hello folks!
I was running a "google play edition" rom on my phone (rooted/ superuser). Today it said there was an ota update for kit-kat available. I let it go through with the install. For some reason the install failed (I think it was a 'status 7').The phone wouldn't boot (instead of a loading boot animation just blue screen) Then when I went to try to reflash my old rom (I was stupid and didn't have a backup), I got a status 7 error again, and I've gotten one for every rom I've tried to flash (HTC One nexus edition and another one, can't remember the name).
Anyway, I can push and pull files via adb but nothing will install. I've tried sideloading too but that failed also.
I have CWM 6.0.2.8.
Any help would be lovely.

Update CWM to newest image. That version won't work with 4.4

Do you have the recovery in the same folder that fastboot is in?
Is the phone in fastboot USB mode while connected to the computer?
Try renaming it to "recovery" without the quotation marks. Then just use "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" without the quotations.

That did it! I think it was because I was using "fastboot flash filename.img", leaving out recovery.
Rom installed. Thanks a million man!

[SCRIPT] Recovery Flashing Script

Hello Guys! I made this little script for the people that dont know adb/fastboot commands and want to install a custom recovery
This will ONLYwork on UNLOCKED bootloaders.
Make sure "USB-Debugging" is enabled and adb/fastboot drivers have been properly installed
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for bricked devices or nuclear warfare. I made this simple script for those who can follow simple instructions.
1st. Download the Recovery Flashing script from here: http://goo.gl/ZtaUFe
2. Unzip the files to a folder on your desktop, or where ever you would like, just remember where you unzipped it to.
3. Download the recovery of your choice:
[m8][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703223
OR
[RECOVERY][m8] TWRP 2.7.0.0 touch recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2717932
4. Place the recovery you downloaded in the previous step into the folder you unzipped the Recovery Flashing script.
5. Rename the recovery you downloaded to Recovery that way it appears as "Recovery.img" in the folder. If it has and extra ".img" at the end, it will fail to flash.
6. After you have done all the steps above, Simply click the "Recovery-Flasher.bat" and follow its instructions it presents, If you have done everything correctly you phone will boot into recovery at the end of the script
I hope this has made life a little easier for our new comers. Please dont forget to hit the thanks button!!! :good::good::good:

Changelog:
V1.1- Added "Fastboot erase cache" after flashing recovery.

Sorry but you will need a window pc to use this tool. You can download one of the recoveries in the OP then use the app Flashify in the play store to flash the recovery .

Easiest for me is: fastboot flash/boot twrp,then install SuperSU on reboot. To go back to stock,reflash firmware.

I'll usually just boot twrp and then install SuperSU. To boot twrp boot into the bootloader anduse the following commands with fastboot.
Fastboot boot <name of customer recovery>.img (example twrp.img). It will then load twrp and you can install SuperSU either through sideloading or installing from the root of your device.
