HTC First Help! - HTC First

Hello, I accidentally deleted my system UI on my HTC First while trying to flash a custom ROM. As of right now I can load into TWRP and H-Boot, but I can't seem to get ADB Sideload working. Every time I do load it my computer shows it in portable devices with the name E:\ and in Android USB Devices as MY HTC in the Device Manager but I cant access them anywhere on my computer. I have the stock files for the First along with the boot.img. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

[Q] Device not found on ADB | TWRP Sideload and CWM mount problems

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!

Years later, thank you sir, for helping a noob with "adb kill-server"
I was so freaked as to why TWRP wasn't sideloading but PhilZ was.

[Q] ADB Sideload isn't working for me!

Hello there
I am stuck without a ROM and without a ROM zip file anywhere on the internal device that I can use TWRP to install. The only option I have at the moment is to use adb sideload, and this is my first time doing so.
I downloaded this:
adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522
Anyway, I am trying to follow this tutorial but it's not working out for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317986
It looks simple and easy, but this is the problem I am facing:
"I changed directories to where the adb.exe is (inside platform-tools) and ADB Sideload is already started in TWRP. However, whenever I type "adb devices" it only says "List of attached devices" and nothing under it. Whenever I try flashing the ROM, it says error: device not found. What am I doing wrong here? I even changed the name of the ROM to rom.zip to make it shorter as per a suggestion in the first page of the thread, but that didn't work either."
Can someone please help me and tell me how to make it work? I have been without a ROM for hours waiting for the SDK to download this my internet is pretty slow. Thanks a lot!
Okay now I realize my device isn't actually recognized, although it works fine with fastboot usb.
What do I do? I tried having windows automatically search for drivers but it didn't find anything.
Okay after doing some more reading I realized I never actually opened SDK Manager, and when I try, it just opens a black command prompt window and then shuts down. I then came across this article and realized I need Java JDK drivers before I can actually run SDK Manager and then follow the rest of the tutorial. Maybe that is the problem??
You need HTC drivers , if you didn't install HTC SYNC, open "virtual CD", that appears at connection of phone with PC and you will see folders with drivers for different OS.
Thanks, mate. I already fixed the problem but I forgot to update this thread. You are right, I did not have the proper drivers, so I downloaded and installed HTC Sync Manager and then everything went great.
I had the same problem last night trying to flash my first rom ever, but thankfully i had a usb otg cable that I used to put the rom zip in my flash drive and flash it into the phone

[Q] "adb error: device not found" after format /system

Hey guys
I did a terrible mistake. Instead of just normally resetting the phone to factory settings in CWM after unlocking it, my finger slipped to the "format /system" option.
This happened before, but then I just sideloaded the rom and everything was ok. Oddly enough, this doesnt work anymore.
Whenever I want to push something to my phone using adb, I get the error that the device was not found and I cannot do anything to access the phone (when entering the command "adb devices" for example, no device shows up). I installed every driver I can think of, I installed all the packages in the sdk manager and now I dont know what to do.
I know that the debug mode is required, but since theres no OS anymore, I really ran out of ideas.
Please help me! :crying:
PS: additional information:
- HTC One m7 (unlocked)
- Clockwerkmod Recovery
- Windows 8
- Hasoon2000's all in one kit
EDIT: I found this site that recommends flashing via fastboot. (blog.syedgakbar.com/2013/02/01/android-installing-system-images-using-flashboot/)
where do I find these images?

Solved [Q] How to copy files to my phone

Hi all,
the question seems simple, but I am unable to solve it, would be very grateful for somebody helping me out.
I have an unlocked HTC One
Bootloader is working, OS is upgraded to 2.24.401.1
Recovery is installed and working TWRP 2.6.1.0
When starting the phone, the system asks to connect to WiFi but does not find a network in the air, hence I am not able to continue that route.
When connecting it to a Windows PC, it is recognized, the usual "drives"are mounted as the drivers are installed.
I see the HTC One but it is read-only and a file cannot be copied to it.
I tried to use the adb push xxxx /storage command but this also says the system is read-only.
I just lack the knowledge on how to continue, I cannot flash a rom as it is not copied to the device.
Please be so kind to guide me in the right direction.
Ruud
When you connect the phone to the PC - the phone will show its connected on the top (notification bar) pull that down and select /USB connected then choose
HTC Sync Manager
Now connect the phone to the pc and it will be seen as a media devise open it and in root copy the rom and anything else you need
leave the phone with that setting then when you need to move photo, music, docs or whatever its is just a matter of finding the correct file and copy/paste

Thanks, but your explanation is for normal usage, as said, I had a read-only system, this did not work for me.
I understand that the command adb remount did the trick, after that at least adb was able to do its task.

Do you have USB debugging mode activated when you connect to a PC?
Also you can adb sideload a rom when you are in recovery.
Thanks farang4u,
As I said, Matt helped me out and the last Wipe Data which I did this morning was also the trick, so now all seem fine with my phone again.
Thanks all.

Soft brick Htc one m7

Hello guys i need help regarding my htc one m7.
I tried to go back to stock rom with a HTC ONE m7 fw 1.29.401.12 and did not know that ruu version have to match exactly the fw version since i have s-on.
I locked the bootloader and therefore all data were deleted on my phone so all my backups and cyanogenmod installation files.
My bootloader still works this goes also for twrp.
I researched for hours and found a solution with adb sideload but i am just not able to properly transfer the file.
I have htc sync installed and also sdk tools adb etc.
When i go into recovery and open cmd command in platform tools and type "adb devices " i get this : List of devices attached
name of device device
so everything is good till now.
Now i go to twrp and put the one into adb sideload then i get the following result when i type adb devices :
adb server is out of date. killing...
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
name of the device sideload
So this is my problem guys i need to transfer the file but i dont know what is causing the problem would be awesome if you can help somehow.
Have a nice weekend all!

Ok I read your post again and think I misunderstood your problem. Your drivers are working as adb see's the device so what exactly is the problem? The sideload does not complete?
You should uninstall HTC Sync for starters it will do you no favours while using adb/fastboot commands it has the potential to cause hangs. if
Code:
adb sideload name-of-zip
is not working for you.
Try adb push instead with the one on the TWRP home screen (Not in Sideload mode)
Code:
adb push name-of-zip.zip /sdcard
The command window will appear unresponsive until the push completes. (several minutes) When it's done select Install from the TWRP menu and select the rom zip file.
If you still get problems copy and paste the error from your command window here :good:
Or flash TWRP 2.8.5.0 it has the ability to use MTP in recovery so you can see your phones Internal Storage while in recovery and just drag and drop the rom to your phone :good:
