possible you need to get rid of driver signature verification, google it how to install correctly adb drivers.can search xda too for that

U should be able to access mtp via trwp, just turn it on in Mount

Just use sideload to push rom and any extra zip (like gapps or super su)

I forgot to put a ROM on my sdcard before wiping/flashing kernel and my phone won't boot now. How do I get a ROM on there?
If you have a nandroid backup on the phone, resore it. If you don't have a backup, copy the ROM you wanted to install to the phone via 'adb push rom-name.zip /data/media/rom-name.zip' Then flash as described above.
Or easier go to TWRP recovery ---advanced ----- and adb sideload

Send from my awesome 1080p
you have to make sure it is the exact ruu for your device or you will get an error
Try to get into boot loader or recovery. Make sure the phone is under light and try resetting it by pressing power and volume down. The phone can not be in a dark room or this will not work. Then connect your phone to the computer. Navigate on your PC to where you have the Android platform tools. Now hold down SHIFT and right click in this folder where the platform tools are, and select open command prompt here. Type in "ADB devices" with no quotation marks. You should see your phone come up, it will probably be something like "HT something something" this is the serial number of your phone. If you see this continue. Make sure the ROM that you are trying to put on your phone is in the same folder when you held shift and right clicked. Now you need to type "ADB push" followed by the exact name of the ROM that you placed in the same folder as the platform tools. So it should be "ADB push ROM_NAME /sdcard" without the quotation marks. The /sdcard part tells the computer where to place the ROM on your phone. If you are able to do this, reboot into recovery and you should be able to flash the ROM from there. A side note, it could take anywhere from 1 to 5 or 6 minutes to push this ROM to your phone, roms for this phone are big files and they take a while to push in this way.

You should also uninstall HTC Sync manager, this will not allow you to use the ADB commands

Hope you get this sorted out. If not, we need more info like where and when you bought the device what carrier your on, what firmware you had and what rom you were flashing. Also if your running windows and what version or mac/Linux.

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

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

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!!

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.

I was trying to load ViperOne into my phone, something happened during the install and my phone power cycled continuously. I tried to reinstall but instead wiped my entire phone on accident, now nothing is on the "SDCard"
I can turn the phone on into HBoot and get into TWRP recovery, but after that theres nothing to install or do. I cannot connect to the phone in ADB either.

if you have a custom recovery, you can move files into it from a computer, using the commands of adb push or adb sideload. if you are stock(i dont see how you couldve removed your rom then) you can just flash the factory img. for your own info, google adb sideload or adb push, and youll find instructions.

Error flashing ROM via adb sideload/fastboot

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.

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?
