My son got a hold of my phone last night, got himself into recovery and completely wiped my phone. I can boot into twrp recovery, but due to the fact that he wiped everything I cannot install my rom. Is there a way to get the rom onto my phone another way? All my files were deleted and I've brained stormed and I'm not savvy enough to figure this out. Please help. I'm phoneless. Thank you in advanced.

TWRP sideloader stays stuck on loading and never actually loads. I'm stuck again. I've tried all morning to figure it out by researching and I've not been able to get it to work. Any more advice?
Try adb push nameoffile.zip /sdcard/

I must admit that I'm impressed with the help I've received specially from bigdaddy619. Nothing is working unfortunately. I'm going to give it another go later on this afternoon and keep you all posted.
Did you get it fixed? If not you can try the steps I have outlined here. One common trend I have seen lately is that TWRP 2.6.1.0 is not working for people whereas TWRP 2.5.0.0 does work. You might try fastboot flashing TWRP 2.5.0.0 instead as you follow the steps. Let us know if it doesn't work.

I have not fixed it yet. All options I have tried have helped. I will give this a try later on today and report back what happens. Thank you for this!

What version of recovery are you using?


Gentlemen, I am happy to report that the issue was all with twrp. As suggested by MrFixit007, I downgraded to 2.5 and I was able to load my rom from a usb otg. I appreciate all the help you all offered and gave. Specially bigdaddy619 for the one on one help. This is an excellent community that is extremely helpful. Thanks again!
