Im faily new to the android world. please forgive me of any stupid questions that i may ask.


I was trying to reinstall a new version of maximus 7 on my htc one .

i had the CM 10 installed and was having wifi issues. read that i should clear data and what not and instead of doing a factory reset....i did a format...

now i have no rom on the phone and cant figure out how to do this.

ill upload a video on what i currently have going on...

when i plug it in to the computer...i head the noise from the computer saying that it connected..but nothing popped up.

please help.

I also ran into a similar predicament a few days ago. I found adb push to be much easier than sideload. Make sure that your drivers and adb is installed on your PC (I assume Windows). In recovery mode, plug phone into USB and your PC should detect the phone but you won't be able to see phone contents; mine made a connection sound.

Then open a command prompt and type: adb push ROM.zip /data/media/ROM.zip

Rom.zip is the rom file that you want to flash, which should be in the same folder as adb. For the path, I used "/data/media" because the custom recovery defaults to that but you may be able to use "/sdcard" as well.

Then flash the rom using recovery
