adb and ruu problems

---

Hi!
First of i got a Htc one S from sweden and have been using utb rom for the last weeks with CWR Touch. After hearing that Cyanigenmod 10 was not as buggy as i thought i decided to use it.

This is what i did:
Downloaded the rom with rom manger - the phone restarted and viped everythig and started to install. It then aborted because of something wrong with the file.

Now i dont have a rom on my phone and i cant acces my SD card where i got other roms waiting for me to install.
When i try to use any ADB commands like "adb devices" nothing shows up under devices.

I tried "adb kill-server" and "adb devices" still nothing. When i use "fastboot devices" my device shows. I have tried both Hboot and Fastboot.

I tried to use one guide i found where someone used "all in one toolkit" to go back to stock recovery, delete space, re-enter recovery but that did not work for me.

I tried to adb push roms to my phone but still, no luck because my phone cant be found.

I tried to use the software "quick adb pusher" and with it i could se my device show and i could acces the storage, but there is a folder named "error device not found".

I tried to use "all in one toolkit" so i atleast could get CWR back on my phone, it flashes and finds my device, but when i try to rebot to recovery nothing happens anymore.

Do anyone have a fix for this? 7h later and im out of ideas.....what ever small ammount of knowledge i have about this ended hours ago and google cant help me anymore.

I even tried to download a ruu to try and install it but keeps telling me its the wrong version and then the installation aborts.

i have htc sync and htc usb drivers.
I also downloaded....well atleast 15 diffrent drivers and tried them still no adb device found.

I tried to download android atk but it complains about me not having java runtime but i installed it.

Im using windows 7 x64 bootcamp and osx

In fastboot you can flash boot images and recoveries.
You can only use ADB when booted (which you can't) or when in recovery.

If you are unable to mount /sdcard in recovery, check the sticky on how to fix unmountable sdcard. It's here in Q&A.
Once you can mount /sdcard in recovery, you can adb push roms to it. You have to be in recovery for that, not in fastboot. First flash the boot image for your rom from fastboot, then boot into recovery and push and flash the rom. Wipe your data and cache.

You can do this either on windows or osx but on osx you dont need drivers so you can't have the wrong ones.


Good hunting,

The CWM version shipped with all-in-one doesn't work. CWM doesn't mount the sdcard anyway. I'd suggest TWRP because it can mount the sdcard and also has other features that CWM lacks.

Just boot into bootloader and in fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery twrpfilename.img

Then do as jobo said within the recovery.

What I meant, and what I think aasterix meant as well, is not mount the sdcard onto your computer over usb, but just mount the sdcard onto the root filesystem in recovery on the device.
If that doesn't work, you have to fix that first using '[HOW-TO] Fix soft brick & error mounting sdcard'. Once you can mount /sdcard in recovery (any custom recovery will do) you're good to push and flash your favorite rom.
