I ended up going from having a ROM that was missing features and I ended up having nothing but, recovery (ClockWorkMod) and the bootloader.
I would also like to include that my computer doesn't show HTC One or Mass Storage anymore though it shows up under the Device Manager settings when on Fastboot. De-bug is disabled, I don't have a rom to enable it so there goes that.
I do have a TWRP backup but I have no idea how to push it to the phone since debugging isn't enabled, adb cannot find device and fastboot knows that the phone is connected but fails when transfering, mostly when I try to flash a ROM into it.
In summary, HTC One only has access to bootloader, ClockWorkMod, no debug, no rom, clean storage.
I don't care what rom I have to install, if anyone can help as fast as possible I need it for work.
Also when I try adb sideload rom*.zip (error: device not found) shows up.
Thanks in advance.
I'm desperate to the point where all I want is to access whatever ROM is compatible with my HTC One, I'm glad to post any other info.
Ok guys, brand new to forums and brand new to Androids. Bought this phone off someone for cheap, was wondering if I could fix this. Have been googling for the past 4 hours and found some info. Here is what I know about the device.
It was rooted (not sure which rom), the recovery does say unlocked and tampered. I can boot into TWRP recovery. It says no OS. I have SDK Manager and correct updates, USB driver installed, HTC Sync Manager installed. Also have Stock rom for HTC One.
I have tried to use TWRP to load a stock rom using ADB, I can not in any way get it to read the device. On the phone I go into TWRP - > Advanced - ADB Sideload -> Swiped to sideload and it says Starting ADB Sideload feature... then nothing ( I assume that's all it says), I then go into command prompt and go to the proper directory and type ADB Devices (it says List of devices attached and nothing ), I still try to load rom and it says no devices attached.
Now I am completely new to rooting of android devices, I am a little tech savvy tho. But some detailed instructions would help and be most appreciated. Basically I just need help getting PC to read the HTC One, thanks!

Buy a USB OTG cable and drag the rom of ur choice to the USB. Go to TWRP recovery nd flash the rom. I suggest Android Revolution HD 51 custom rom. Based on Sense 5.5 nd KitKat with loads of tweaks.

Hey ok, so the USB OTG micro usb right? Would I use a flash drive I'm guessing??
Hi, I'll jump right into my issue, as in 3 hours of research I haven't found explanation on internet about my problem :crying:
I need to:
- Install a ROM on my HTC One (international)
I have done this:
- Installed driver in PC
- Unlocked, rooted, tampered
- Installed TWRP
- Wiped everything on the phone (stupidly) including OS, so I have only access to Bootloader and Recovery now
- Somehow the device is now S-ON, I'm not sure if it reverted by itself from S-OFF?
I have tried and doesn't work:
1. Mounting through recovery as MTP to add my ROM zip -> Cannot Copy, Its file size is larger than device limit
2. TWRP option "ADB Sideload" stuck at the screen "Starting ADB sideload feature..." infinitely
3. When running ADB Devices -> under "List of devices attached" is empty
As I've learned all of this just recently, I have incomplete knowledge about the entire process so please treat me like an idiot that I am. Thanks a lot!

Well it sounds like you just need to repair your drivers and push a Rom to the phone. What Windows version are you running on your pc?

About the s-on / s-off thing. If your phone is s-on then it probably always was. There is only one way to go to s-off to s-on and it requires a very specific fastboot command.

You could also just grab a USB OTG cable. It's a really short (like, 2 inch long) cable that plugs into the micro-USB port on the phone and has a normal female USB port at the other end. With one of these, you could just copy the ROMs ZIP file onto a thumb drive and flash the ROM from recovery. I know TWRP supports OTG as this is the only way I install my ROMs and do my nandroid backups. It's totally worth the $3!

OK bro what's your TWRP version? Because for some reason MTP and Sideload both didn't work for me on the newer versions but sideload worked great on 2.6.3.3

I've found MTP to still be a bit unreliable in twrp
use adb push, sideload, or USB-OTG as mentioned in the Frequently Asked Question sticky page 3
(it also mentions the driver problem)
PS: I also need to update that post, 2.8 series of twrp works fine for most ROMs, if you do get problems (such as with ARHD) then roll back to 2.6.3.3

Yes! I've got an OTG but doesn't seem to be working - either it's already broken or I don't know how Pls explain how to access OTG from TWRP if I've already placed my ROM .zip to USB?

It's a new TWRP 2.8.0.2. I've just updated it last week or so. Everytime I restart the device from recovery, it keeps saying this device is unrooted and asks if I want to root even though I've done it on every previous restarts.

Yep, I've tried all that as described in my first post (except the OTG which doesn't work), or do you mean something else?
----------------
Update:
If I boot in recovery and mount MTP, my "ADB Devices" command will recognize the phone, how do I take it from here?

I do recommend changing to TWRP 2.6.3.3 untill your up and running. Just because it's the most stable version right now.
If adb is detecting your device while in recovery that's good. You can just push your Rom. Rename your Rom file to rom.zip and bit it in your fastboot folder.
Boot your phone to recovery. And connect usb. (you don't need MTP for this) just on the TWRP home screen is fine. In the adb command line type
Code:
adb push rom.zip /sdcard
The command window will appear unresponsive until the push completes. Once it's done install the Rom with twrp.
Or to use your OTG first you must mount it in the Mounts options. Then you can access it with the TWRP file manager, or by selecting install then changing the working directory. At the top of the install options Select where it says Internal Storage and change it to OTG.

Ok, I will install TWRP 2.6.3.3 instead. My OTG cable is busted so that's out for now.
Also this method worked. When I pushed the ROM it was unresponsive, I had to wait for about 7 minutes until it finished.
So I've finished installing Android Revolution HD 81.0 as normal, throws me back to TWRP, but when rebooting to system it says "No OS installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?" And sure enough, it's stuck at HTC One welcome screen for over 10 minutes.
Seems like there's progress, you've helped a lot but still can't drill it to the end

Mmm! That's strange should install fine with 2.6.3.3. Did you notice any errors during install. Specifically "set_medata_recursive - some changes failed"
Check the md5 of your ARHD download also. You can get a free tool from www.winmd5.com to do that. If the md5 is correct and you see no errors during install.
You can try formatting data in TWRP this will however completely wipe the entire device. Including internal storage. So you will need to push the Rom again.
Also bare in mind it can take up to 15 to 20 mins to pass the HTC logo screen after a clean install. But seeing the No OS installed message is not normal

Yes! That did happen at the end of my installation. Should I be worried about that?
I'm not familiar with md5 - downloaded and installed it, but clueless about how to use this thing.
The installation was done in previous TWRP, I'm flashing 2.6.3.3 now and will try install ROM again.

Set meta data recursive means you've used the wrong recovery to install the Rom.
Just flash it with 2.6.3.3 you'll have no problems
EDIT :- for the record MD5 checking should always be done before flashing files to your phone to avoid flashing a corrupt zip or img. MD5 checksum values are normally posted with the download. This is the correct md5 for ARHD 81.
Code:
[SIZE="6"]Android Revolution HD 81.0[/SIZE]
[SIZE="2"]--- [I]MD5 Checksum: 9985BFD22A695AEA7A43BC7E0EB42DBC[/I] ---[/SIZE]
paste the long code into the appropriate box in the checker tool and drag and drop the file on the tool then click verify. It will tell you if they match. If they don't match get a new download

I really have the same problem but my own is s-off seem as your is solve a help please
So let's say theoretically that someone in their first week of using an Android device (ever) were to boot up the TWRP recovery and wipe their Fire because YOLO. Would anyone have advice for any possible way to revive it? Here's a description of the device's state:
It boots the Amazon logo only, and adb lists the device as unauthorized. If I boot it in recovery it says it's in fastboot mode and adb doesn't recognize the device at all. (Edit: ) Fastboot does recognize it though, but I'm not sure of the best path to take since I can't use adb to push files to the device for reinstallation of the firmware.
So from my view it's a paperweight, and that's cool because what I did was all kinds of dumb (thinking I could still revive it after what I was doing). But before I use it as a door stop, I figured I might ask you guys what you'd do. I'm guessing maybe I boot from an image that allows me to push the firmware to the sdcard, then I can boot from TWRP recovery and install it, but the first image to use there is something I'm not yet sure of.
Have you tried the methods at http://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/general/unbrick-restore-stock-2015-amazon-fire-t3250639

Thanks for the reply
I think that's along the lines of what I need to do, but I can't use adb sideload as adb no longer sees the devices in recovery. Fastboot does though.

Ah you know what, you just encouraged me to read over again and try one different thing. The CM recovery enables adb sideload, and I'm pushing the stock firmware to it now.
Thanks for the help
Hey there,
I wanted to install a custom recovery on my MI8, I"m currently on MIUI Global 11.0.5.0 QEAMIXM, bootloader unlocked
I have tried several tutorials, such as:

everytime I reboot into fastboot, fastboot on my laptop doesnt recognize my phone, I mean if I type in "fastboot devices", it just isnt there, but adb recognizes my phone and also reboots into fastboot per command line....I just dont know what to do - I also used the all in one tool version 2, after reboot it just waits for my device which is already in fastboot..I just dont understand what I am doing wrong
I installed all needed USB drivers, my laptop recognizes my phone in device manager, everything is as it should be (also enabled ADB debugging on my phone)
If I type the command to flash recovery.img, it just get stuck there and nothing happens...
It is a very strange behaviour and I am sick of it right now - wasted the last three hours for this :crying:
Maybe someone could help?
Also I have several questions regarding finding the right ROM for my phone - I want MIUI 12 without any bloatware from XIAOMI, also want Viper4ANDROID if it is still a thing - also where I can read for some information regarding magisk? I never used it and I have no idea how it works, I just remember some things from my previous phones, such as Samsung Galaxy S5 or HTC EVO 3D, but this time it is all different...
I would be really thankfull, if someone could help me out
