Ok here is the skinny. I have the Sprint HTC 1. Currently rooted and running Beanstalk 4.3 and TWRP 2.5 ... I have read, re read, and read again how to update my TWRP to 2.6.3 and have no luck.
I have tried Terminal Emulator
I have tired Goo Manager. It actually down loads the file. Runs through the process. Never reboots or updates
I have tried Fastboot. For what ever reason my computer does not pick up and adb devices. It shows Fastboot USB
Any thoughts. I had some unlock this one for me and throw TWRP on. All my others I have done myself.
I love TWRP..but if I cannot fix...what is the easiest way to put Philz or CWM on instead?
Want to update a ROM to 4.4 Kitkat but cannot with out an updated recovery

While in fastbootusb check your drivers
Device not recognized? (If you are using Windows 8.1 this will most likely not work)
On your PC go to device manager and find your phone(usually M7WLS), right click and select properties
Select the driver tab
Select update driver
Select browse my comp
Let me pick
Look for ADB USB device or similar should be one of the first couple choices
Select MyHTC install and you should be good

Ok... recognized a device was attached. So type the following
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7wls.img
and I got error cannot open 'openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7wls.img'
This is TWRPS guidelines
Download the above file into your platform-tools dir. Turn off your device. Turn on the device and keep holding volume down until a menu shows up. Select fastboot from the menu list. Plug the device into your computer. If you have the right drivers installed, your screen should now say FASTBOOT USB. Run the following command via the command line:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
Note that you will need to change the last part to match the name of the file that you just downloaded. This method requires that you have the drivers installed that come with the HTC Sync software that are available here. You will also need adb and fastboot for your computer.

May be a moot point. I am upgrading to a Team Nocturnal_xR1 which is a 4.4 ROM. So far it has been loading and allowed the file on a TWRP 2.5.0.0 version. I still need to upgrade the TWRP version. Right now looks like it may work.

I had a similar issue where I needed the updated twrp. I ended up using the original AIO toolkit that I used to root the phone/unlock the phone to begin with.
I found the latest version of the AIO (made by Hasoon: http://www.hasoon2000.info/getdownl...obile,ATT,Sprint)/One_All-In-One_Kit_v3.1.rar) and the latest image of TWRP from here: http://teamw.in/twrp_view_all_devices.
After installing hasoon, stick the downloaded image in the data/recoveries folder w/in the folders from the AIO. Next use the "Your Own Recovery" option under the flash a recovery option and choose that image instead. Worked great for me several times. Hopefully it does for you. Let me know if you have question.

Hello!
I have an HTC one developer edition, I did an advance wipe of my phone because it wasn't charging, it said that USB Host mode was on. It only charged when the phone was off. I decided to wipe everything but the pictures (or so I thought) but once it finished the wipe the entire OS systems was erased, know the only thing I can do is enter TWRP.
Please Help I just bought the phone!

chose whatever rom you want as long its compatible with your device variant and compatible with your twrp version.
what do you mean by doesn't read the phone? its is not detected as sideload when you type ''adb devices''?

.exe file extension might be hidden depending your windows configuration. Go ahead with the guide it should work.
Open a cmd prompt from that folder. (shift + right click in a blank space) (step 4)
with you device in twrp sideload mode (step 1,2,3 completed)
type in the cmd prompt:
Code:
adb devices
make sure it output your device s/n + sideload
then
Code:
adb sideload <name_of_rom>.zip
what rom did you downloaded?

Do you have fastboot.exe on your computer? It looks like CMD isn't finding fastboot.exe 1-because you don't have it 2- because you have not started your cmd prompt from your fastboot.exe folder

Like mb_guy said, you MUST place the bin file in the same folder where adb and fastboot are. Every time you want to flash a file to your phone it must be in that folder, otherwise fastboot won't find it and it will output you that error (can't open file). That rule apply to recovery, unlock code, rom, kernel, ruu, firmware etc etc.

''error: cannot open'' is caused because fastboot don't find the file. Is the recovery file you are trying to flash is named exactly <openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img> ?
Btw I'll recommend you to flash twrp 2.6.3.3 not 2.6.3.0 as you could have issur flashing newer 4.4 rom
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <name_of_file.img>
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Yes, named exactly the same.
It's driving me mad, if the bootloader is now unlocked is there an easier way to flash twrp and then root.
Whats the best way to check adb is actually communicating with the phone

Well, think I'll give up with rooting my HTC One, I have never had so much trouble routing a divice as this. My bootloader is now unlocked and that's about as far as I get.
My phone seems to have been detected once through adb that then allowed me to run unlock token but everything else just fails.
In one last attempt I've attached image of ADB folder and below is result from command line.

Lol
Now that the phone is good, go spend some time with your better half!!!
No guides on xda, on "how to return my marriage to stock"
Put the phone on the charger or something, and spend time with your significant other.

One last question
nkk71,
Can I uninstall Superuser now and install SuperSU instead cos I've already purchased that when had the Note rooted or will it cause me more time away from the mrs with issues.

Yeah , sorted.
Thanks again for all your help.

FYI: I am not tech savy at all so bare with me if I sound like a noob/idiot.
I basically formatted my phone from TWRP and I'm thinking there isn't any ROM/UI/kernel?..ect. so it cannot start up (basically stuck on the htc loading screen). My computer detects it but not as a storage device and I can't seem to find a way to access it. I believe I have what i need on my computer but my issue is that i dont know how to get into the internal storage of my htc one because it cannot detect it as a storage device on my computer.
The only trace of it at all i seem to be able to find is in
Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers
Its called "android 1.0" and when i click on it, it takes me to its properties from device manager.
It says Location: Port_#0001.Hub_#0008
I dont know if any of this info i gave is relevant, if not, let me know what ups.

Here is some reading material for you
Bro..I completely understand your predicament..
Just do this step by step
1. Download minimal adb from the internet and install it on your PC.
2. Download twrp image from the internet.this is a recovery loader.
3.copy the image file into the install directory of minimal adb.
4.execute the minimal adb shortcut from your PC.it should open a command prompt.
5.connect your device to the PC via usb.
6. Type this command to check if your device is recognized. "Fastboot devices"
It should show you a device ID..if your device is connected and recognized
7.flash tarp image with this command "fastboot flash recovery <twrp.img>"
8.reboot your device..press and hold volume down at the sametime to get into bootloader.
9.enter recovery.
10.Download any custom rom from htconeroot.com.it will be a zip file.
11. Copy the zip into minimal adb install directory and run this command to push the zip onto your device. "adb push <image file>.zip any name.zip"
12. After this completes you should be able to see this image in the filemanager in twrp.
13.move the zip file into sdcard directory.
14.make sure all options are checked in the mount in twrp
15.install the custom rom from install option in tarp.
This is 3 frantic days of research on the internet bro..
I had a brick in my hand too..got it up and running VIPERONE ROM
Hope you get through this fine
Thank you, i really appreciate the effort! but im stuck on step 6/7. When i typed in fastboot devices, it didn't show any new id. and when i typed fastboot flash recovery twrp.img it says "waiting on device" so im guessing it still didnt detect it. any idea on why this might be happening? thanks

Ok..try this..
Press down on the power and volume down button to enter the default boot loader.
If you hv rooted your phone..it should be showing tampered at the top.
select the fast boot option..
Now connect your phone via usb..
The display name should change to "fastboot usb"
Then again open minimal adb and continue from step 6.
Make sure you have all the htc drivers for Windows installed on your PC.
Windows can automatically download these drivers for you if you don't have them..
All the best
Are you using Windows 8.1?
everything works now, thank you guys. You are all awesome!
HI everyone, i have unlocked Mi Mix with EU Global ROM (rooted) and TWRP installed.
After the phone was playing up, I idiotically removed root and deleted Xposed, and it was OK, but tonight I tried to re-install originial ROM, and now can't do anything with the phone.
I can boot into TWRP, but when i try fastboot, the fastboor screen comes up for 20 seconds, then the phone boots to Mi logo, and nothing happens.
I can't get computer to recognize the phone so can't add new ROM - so unsure how to do anything now
Any help appreciated, thanks!
Jamie
Hello !! i think i can help you , well same thin happened to me and what i did was ----∑ Boot into recovery , plug your phone to computer , download Universal ADB Driver and when it detects Adb Composite click install . Then you will be able to unlock and use fastboot. Hope it helps if not im sorry , this is all i know. Good Luck !!!
If you are able to boot in to twrp why just install the original Chinese rom and start from scratch.

Hey, thanks for the reply - in TWRP though I can't see any ROM files, or anything to install?
Download a ROM (from desktop)... boot to TWRP (device)... Mount storage... Copy Rom to device... Flash ROM...

Hi, thanks for the reply. the problem is, the computer doesn't recognize phone no matter what I do, and I tried the mount storage option but it only shows the phone internal storage!
Sorry, i'm new to this all, thanks,
Jamie
There is sdcard on Mix, then if you see internal storage you can copy rom on it then when u try to flash, navigate to this zip file...
Other u can flash using MiFlashTool using adb feature....

Thanks! Yeah, I noticed it said SD card - but it's not removable, no? So i don't know how to put ROM onto it, when my computer doesn't recognise it!
Thanks

When you boot into TWRP, try "adb devices" on your PC. If it's read there, you can use the "adb push filename.zip /sdcard/" command to push the ROM to your phone and then install it.

Thanks, is adb devices the same as mimal ADB and fastboot? As in, the program? I have that installed, although it can't find phone
And sorry for knowing so little, i don't have much Android experince.
Thanks,
Jamie
Check if u have an issue with your driver when device is connected... device manager on windows 10...
If yes, check to install driver from computer (not from web or cd's or something like that), select universal USB/adb feature... and ur device will appear...

Well, I use minimal ADB and fastboot too. Just run it, and try "adb devices". If it's read, you can try the "adb push". If not, please check your Device Manager to see if it is read there.

It doesn't appear in Device Manager, and it always has done before. I installed new drivers (made sure they were correct), rebooted PC, and still doesn;'t show in device manager, so not sure what top do!

Damn. Not sure what to do either. Maybe download a fastboot ROM from their site and flash it trough Miflash? Maybe that'll work? If not, then I'm out of ideas.

I've 100% installed the right drivers, but the device doesn't show in device manager, or anywhere on my PC! It does charge though, which is weird

if you have a usb OTG adapter you can put a rom on an usb stick mount it in twrp and flash from there
Did you do a total wipe? And left your device totally clean?

Put your ROM in the same folder as your adb drivers folder. Hold shift while right clicking in this folder and choose "open command window here". Boot into TWRP and goto "advanced", then "adb sideload". Now write in the command prompt "adb devices". It should now show your device id and "sideload" after it. Write "adb sideload name of your rom.zip"
At least your phone isn't totally dead like mine. I powered mine off with a full charge and we to power it back on a little while later and it's totally dead now. Even Xiaomi Flash Tool won't let me flash anything. Sees the phone but won't let me flash anything. I get an error code. Xiaomi, via email says they can't service my phone because I'm in the USA. This will be my last Xiaomi phone. So pissed off
