You may install the HTC Drivers... and ADB works only on system or recovery... otherwise you have to use fastboot commands. So I'd recommand flashing a Stock ROM from TWRP, you can get a stock rom from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752 (thanks Mike1986 for providing such awesome ROMs)... then you should have a working phone again. At least: If you can enter the bootloader EVERYTHING is fine and you didn't f*** up your HTC One.
Hit the Thanksbutton if it helped or ask me for further clarification

Okay, first here you have the correct adb and fastboot files, I uploaded them quickliy for you, I think this way they should work properly:
http://uploaded.net/file/ykwya517
Next thing are these HTC Drivers, in this post are a few of them: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2089508 and on my computer there are the 4.3.0.001 drivers, so I'd recommand downloading those(Credits go to @mdmower):
http://www.mediafire.com/download/n5y93fdgkvexpwc/HTC+Driver+4.3.0.001.exe
Now shut down your phone and boot in into the bootloader with pressing the power button and the volume down button. Then select fastboot and enter this menu. Now if the drivers are installed correctly there should be written FASTBOOT USB. I think you said you are unlocked... so the following command should run just fine. Open a command prompt and navigate to the folder where adb and fastboot are placed. In this folder you copy your custom recovery(TWRP) and you flash it with this command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery [recoveryname].img
And DON'T worry about adb in the bootloader! ADB doesn't work with the bootloader. Now you boot into your recovery by chosing Recovery somewhere in your bootloader. If you are in the bootloader you somehow need to push the ROM to your HTC One... This should work with this command...
Code:
adb push "C:\FolderWhereRomIsStored\rom.zip" "/data/media/0/rom.zip"
And if this doesn't copy it correctly simply place your zip on your computer to a folder that is empty and push this folder to your HTC One with:
Code:
adb push "C:\FolderWhereRomIsStored" "/data/media/0"
Now you are good to go, simply flash the zip form TWRP. I think you know how this works Simply go to install and then chose the zip and flash it.
If you now want to s off... then ask me again. I'll give you an advice

Good to know that it worked As some kind of a hint I'd recommand not to proceed s off at the moment because with this security system disabled, you are able to destroy many more partitions such as the bootloader and this would result with irreparable damage to your device and it would be hardbricked. So my advice is: Keep your hands away from S OFF for a few weeks and use rumrunner s off if you are sure that you can understand adb/fastboot basics. I really don't want to say that you are stupid or a noob, this is truly NOT the case! Everyone needs experience and the only way to get experience is to read through forums, to read statements from people that hardbricked their device and many more thing But you have a working phone right now, that is important :highfive:

seriously mate, do some searching, don't wanna sound rude, but this has been asked & answered about a gazillion times.
anyway, one of three methods to get a ROM onto your phone:
1- OTG cable
2- adb push, as in "adb push <name of rom>.zip /data/media/"
3- adb sideload, as in "adb sideload <name of rom>.zip"
adb command work in custom recovery.
it is alive again.. i had seen your answer to another soft brick issue but the things i was doing was not working, however now it is, so thank you.

Need help unbrick (willing to pay if needed)

I have a VS980:
I rooted and installed twrp recovery.
I triedto install pac_vs980-dev-20140731
I copied it to root of my phone along with the gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip.
I made a backup of everything on the phone, Then did a full wipe of everything.
I installed the two zips, and it says sucessful. Then goes into a boot loop!
I tried to recover the the backup and it is not found!
IDK what to do it is my girlfriends phone and she is absolutly ripped **** with me. I need serious help to fix this I have no idea what went wrong or how to fix it please help willing to make a paypal payment to anyone who can actually fix this. I was trying a new rom but adb sideload won't load either!
I keep seeing people saying that some commands work for them but when I am in twrp and click advanced and terminal command it loads up what looks like a file browser and I am lost. I seriously need to fix .
I tried the following:
from the TWRP terminal command was to type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
then hit enter
type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc
then hit enter and reboot.

But both commands say there's no space left. what should i try now?
I'm new to this phone but can't you just load the phone's SD into the computer in twrp?
That's what I would do with my old phones.

No this phone doesn't have an SD Card, and the computer isn't seeing the phone at all while plugged in.
I ended up downloading the LG Flash tool and the stock KDZ file it took seconds and completely fixed the phone,
Just had to boot the phone into download mode (Press Volume Up and insert USB cord while phone is off)
and uploaded the KDZ file and all is new, still rooted, but other then that everything is back to full stock.
I don't understand why people don't just make KDZ files for the custom roms! It's much easier!
I know, I meant "mount as USB drive" option in twrp.
They probably need to digitally sign it for a kdz to work , so I don't think they can just "make" a kdz
Have you tried to go back into twrp and wiped the dalvick again. Then tried to reboot.
If all else fails, use the Return To Stock Guide in the general section. What version of Android did you have on the phone before you flashed this? You need to make sure the rom matches the baseband you're using.

i am Stuck at recovery with no adb working or download mode

so my friend the phone owner accepted OTA update he was rooted phone model is F340k and he was stuck at recovery and he wiped every thing without backup and gave it to me and i tried every thing i installed SphinX ROM still was stuck at recovery and then i done the most stupid thing i flashed the original recovery so the phone was bricked but the BULK 9006 mode was working so i fixed it via the Ubuntu method i extracted the needed files from the kdz file for my model and i had recovery working again with adb working and all so i tried flashing SphinX ROM again still was stuck and then i tried these command lins from twrp recovery terminal
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
and
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc
and after these command lins ADB and MTP not working so now i am stuck at lg logo but i can still go to recovery and when t try to open download mode i am stuck at the blue 5 dots so is it bricked now is it fixable what else can i do ?
finally the phone is fixed it turns out that otg was working it was not working before the 2 command lines so when i found out i extracted laf.img from the kdz file and flashed it from the twrp terminal with this command "dd if=/sdcard/laf.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf" and so the download mode was fixed and i flashed it with stock firmware with kdz method and it is working flawlessly again
Give the phone back, apologize for screwing phone up worse than it was, and don't mess w other peoples phones. Lesson learned.

Stuck on TWRP screen. Help Needed

Hi,
I have rooted G Flex, with Freedom Flex TWRP v.2.8.0.0
Did a factory reset as I wanted to gift my phone to my friend but after factory reset, it asked for an update and when I pressed yes, it went on to TWRP and is stuck there.
There is option to install, wipe, etc, but not sure which one to chose and what to do.
Lg Freedom folder has a recovery.zip as well.
Just wondering what is the option for me.
try the steps here. scroll down to the terminal commands and that will get you going.

(How to Fix bricked LG G2 stuck in Recovery after taking OTA update
If you have LG G2 rooted and installed with TWRP recovery then suddenly and automatic OTA update came around but then its too late that your phone just stuck in TWRP Recovery. If you bricked your phone after doing an OTA Update with root and TWRP installed and happens that it stuck at recovery. This can be fixed either by installing the official firmware via flashtool using the KDZ file but sometimes your phone can’t boot into Download mode and it won’t connect to the computer, so this could be a very frustrating situation.
Before doing anything else you may first try this, this has been reportedly worked on some LG G2 users at Androidcentral forum and thanks to the folks at XDA-developers for this workaround.
On your TWRP terminal command type this codes.
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
then hit enter
type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc
Then hit enter and reboot.)
