I rooted my AT&T HTC One and when i was going to flash a rom I accidentally wiped the phone completely. I can go into TWRP but cant move files into the phone. When i try plugging it into my computer all i hear is the little ring that windows does when you plug in something into the usb but i cant access the phones storage. I also tried buying a USB otg cable but the phone didnt seem to recognize it. please help. I've been stuck without a phone for about a week now.

you can use ADB from twrp recovery to push a rom to your /sdcard
follow this guide step by step and quote me here if you have question.
HTC ONE M7_U/M7_UL - ADB PUSH & FLASH A ROM - DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS
Prerequisites:
You need ADB and FASTBOOT on your computer, either by installing the Android SDK or Minimal ADB and FASTBOOT
You need to know how to start a fastboot/adb command prompt:
To open a command window prompt, in Windows go to Start Menu --> ''Run'' then type cmd. Change the directory to the ADB folder on your machine:
If using the default install location for the SDK:
Code:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
If using the default install location of Minimal ADB and FASTBOOT:
Code:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Or hold left shift + right click a blank space inside the folder where adb and fastboot are located and select ''Open command window here'' from the contextual menu.

}
You need TWRP recovery (2.6.3.3 or higher) on your device.
Unlock bootloader if not already unlocked:
Thanks to Electroz for the video tutorial
Flash TWRP Recovery:
Make sure the recovery.img file is in the same folder where adb and fastboot are located
reboot phone in bootloader mode
Flash the recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
You need your HTC drivers correctly installed on your PC:
If not, follow this guide (thanks to nkk71):
originally from @nkk71: [GUIDE] [02-MAR-2014] nkk71's SuperGUIDE to returning 100% back to stock
follow the below instructions to fix
Open "Device Manager" -> select the unknown "One" -> right-click -> "Update Driver Software ..." -> "Browse my computer" -> "Let me pick" -> "Android USB Devices" -> select "My HTC ..." -> install that
just in case, HTC Drivers can be found here: [Drivers] HTC Drivers for Windows - Several Versions (credits to @mdmower)
though you should already have them since you have been using your phone anyways
for those who like a visual guide:
okay so I did a fastboot boot command, and as you can see it didnt install correct driver
Open "Device Manager"
there's the culprit
right click and Update Driver Software
select Browse my computer for driver software
select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
select Android USB Devices
select My HTC ... (if you have more than one version, choose the latest)
warning, select Yes
successful installation
now it looks better
and can confirm:

If phone is booted in OS:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
if not booted or bootlooping, hold power button + volume down until phone boot in bootloader mode
then select BOOTLOADER then RECOVERY using volume up/down to navigate and power button to select.
Make sure your phone is booted in TWRP main menu:
transfer the rom to your /sdcard folder:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
Wait for the zip file to transfer, this can take several minutes and there is no progress bar. When the command prompt give you back the hand and display how much bytes transferred in X seconds, the transfer is completed:
In TWRP main menu, select ''INSTALL''
Browse the installation menu and select your rom zip file inside /sdcard folder:
Swipe to confirm you want to flash the rom
Reboot phone

THIS GUIDE IS FOR THE MOTO G6 PLUS ONLY
2: Returning to Stock
If for any reason your phone is no longer functioning properly such as a bootloop (the phone is restarting itself over and over), "Can't Load Android System," "Startup Failed", or any such error you can fix this by flashing the stock firmware using fastboot.
I have taken stock firmware version OPW27.113-89 and packaged it with a few extras. XDA Member luiz_neto has provided a modified logo.bin that removes the unlocked bootloader warning during boot. A special thanks to XDA Member lohanbarth for providing the stock firmware. I have included the fastboot file for Windows, Linux and Mac users. Windows users can run the .bat file to execute all the necessary commands. For Linux and Mac users, I have included a bash script. You will need access to a PC and connect your phone via a USB cable.
*Downloads:
Modified Stock Firmware OPW27.113-89: (Download)
MD5: 3a1d984a8a3d0c57fb21931a8004eb27
Instructions:
*On your phone:
2A. With the phone powered off(even if for just a moment between the phone rebooting) hold the Power button and the Volume Down(Vol -) at the same time. You should boot into what is called the bootloader. It should display information on the screen and state "AP Fastboot Flash Mode" in orange lettering.
*On your PC:
2B: Extract the firmware which is in tar.xz container/file extension. Windows user probably need to use Winrar, 7Zip or PeaZip to extract the file.
2C: Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder EVERT_OPW27.113-89_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml and click on it to open it.
2D: Hold the Shift Key on your Keyboard. While holding Shift, Right Click in the window(not on the file). Depending on your windows version you should see either "Open PowerShell Window here" or "Open Command Window here." Select which ever one applies.
2E: You will see a black and white screen or a blue and white screen. The steps are the same no matter which screen you see. Simply type(or copy and paste) the following command:
Windows:
Code:
flash_rom.bat
For Linux and Mac you need to make the script file executable. It will make the fastboot binary executable for you. From a terminal run these 2 commands one at a time:
Linux:
Code:
chmod a+x flash_rom.sh
./flash_rom.sh
Mac:
Code:
chmod a+x flash_rom_mac.sh
./flash_rom_mac.sh
Your phone should reboot on it's own. If for some reason it doesn't try tapping the enter key on your keyboard or use the volume keys to make sure “Start” is selected on the right side of the phone and pres the power key on the phone. It should successfully boot the stock firmware.

Hi! have you succeed with your issue flashing this stock firmware ?
Does this stock firmware helps to remove warnings "This device has loaded a different operating system", and "Verity mode disabled" during boot?
And the worst thing is the message "System integrity compromized" and hens - GooglePay disabled and no software updates., when bootloader is re-locked?

Please follow my guide below. That would be much easier I think, because it seems you are doing several things wrong.
1. download ADB/Fastboot tools from here and extract the downloaded zip to 'C:\' to create the path 'C:\platform-tools'
2. download your current firmware build here.
You use 116-16-22 but the latest build is 11-16-29 for RETBR.
3. extract the firmware.zip to 'C:\platform-tools'
Watch out to extract only single files and images to that path and do not create a subfolder => see screenshot attached
4. extract attached flashfile.zip to 'C:\platform-tools'
5. open 'C:\platform-tools' in Explorer and type 'cmd' in the address bar and hit 'Enter'
=> opens a new cmd window
6. boot your Moto into fastboot mode, connect it to your PC and run 'fastboot devices'
=> output: <SERIAL-NO> fastboot
7. execute 'flashfile.bat' and start flashing

No, your bootloader isn't unlocked. The OEM-Unlock toggle would be inactive (greyed out) in case of an unlocked bootloader.
Bootloader can now be easily unlocked as same as Pixel devices.
Older get_identifier_token command is no more needed.
Instructions
Connect your device and PC, then simply run below command.
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
Select "UNLOCK THE BOOTLODER" by volume key and press power button.
Done!
Cheers!
Nice find!
No DRM crap or anything that would cause some features to be lost (stopped working) after unlocking bootloader?
I'm Sony user btw and had already lost DRM and some of its features, including camera that didn't work on older ROM version XD
Thanks, I just ordered the phone because of this post.... Though I should probably have waited for the U20
Still, ive been jonesing for an HTC fix . I need this.
Doesn't work for me.

Don't use fastmode/Fastmoded Mode, it has to be done with CMD and bootloader startet!
Hello, friends on the fifth floor
Before using FastBoot flash unlock, you need to open OEM lock in developer mode now. You can try my way and give me a reply on how to unlock normally. I am looking forward to your reply

how unlock bootloader spd 9863a Android ver.11 realme c11
Hello, I need HELP! When I get to the "Google USB Driver" section I cannot proceed any further. When I open the update hardware wizard, I choose the folder that the Google drivers are in, and sadly, the drivers do not get installed to the device. The error reads "The best drivers for your device are already installed", preventing it from getting installed. I am using a Samsung Galaxy S21 that has an IMEI of a bunch of zeros (0).
Solution below.
For those with the same device, I was able to successfully root + pass safetynet, without TWRP or custom recovery. Since this device isn't yet on the forums I thought I should share my findings.
At the time of rooting, I was currently updated to the newest version available (10) and did this through the regular OTA updates.
Preparations
1. Download Magisk Manager Beta from https://magiskmanager.com/magisk-beta/
2. Download the stock firmware for your tablet from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/lenovo/Yoga_Smart_Tab/YT-X705F/
3. Download kdrag0n's SafetyNet Fix from: https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix/releases
Edit: looks like I missed a step, thanks for the feedback! Point 4 has been corrected to include instructions on how to unlock the bootloader specifically.
4. Unlock your bootloader, instructions on how to enable USB debugging which is needed, can be found here: https://www.shizhub.com/2018/12/how-to-enable-disable-usb-debugging.html, from there you can open your command prompt, navigate to the directory where you have your fastboot and ADB stored, and type "adb devices" to confirm your device is found (a serial number will display on success) - next type "adb reboot bootloader" to force your tablet to restart into it, finally type "fastboot oem unlock-go" to unlock the bootloader. This voids your warranty.
-- end of edit.
5. Enable USB debugging through developer options (go to settings->about->find build # and tap a handful of times until it says you are a developer.
6. Plug the tablet into your PC, and set the default option to Charge only, or go to file transfer mode and enable USB debugging over file transfer.
Steps
1. Unzip the firmware, there should be a folder called Maincode, in it contains "boot.img" as well as adb/fastboot.
2. Copy the boot.img and Magisk apk to the tablet.
3. Install Magisk
4. Tap on "Install" or "Update" beside Magisk in the app and follow the prompts.
5. You will be asked to select a file, select the boot.img you copied earlier.
6. This will generate a file (it will tell you the path) of a patched boot image.
7. Reboot, and copy the patched boot image to the "Maincode" folder from the tablet.
8. In command prompt, type adb devices and make sure your serial number is shown. If not, review the preparations.
9. Type adb reboot bootloader and you'll see a cute little Tux (penguin)
10. Type fastboot devices and ensure your device is shown, if not then it could be bad drivers on your PC or a crappy USB cable. Check device manager on your computer and make sure you see Lenovo ADB. You may have to force it to install it, or you may see a yellow exclaimation mark - right click on the device and force it to install the Lenovo Bootloader option.
11. Next, in the "Maincode" folder where you put the patched image, rename the old "boot.img" to "stock_boot.img" and the patched version to "boot.img"
12. Back in the command prompt, type fastboot flash boot boot.img
13. Reboot by typing fastboot reboot.
Magisk should now be installed, and your tablet should be rooted. Next, you'll want to go into Magisk and do the following:
Steps:
1. Click on the modules button (bottom of the screen, far right option) and at the top you're given an option to install from storage.
2. Navigate to the SafetyNet Fix zip file and select it, then proceed.
3. You will be given the option to reboot - do this. The first time it may go into recovery, but rebooting brings you back to the home screen.
4. Go back to Magisk, click on the gear at the top right - there is an option to hide Magisk from the system, do this and name it whatever you'd like (just not Magisk) - wait a moment, as the app will restart after it installs.
You can check to make sure you pass SafetyNet in the Magisk (now renamed) app, and root status by downloading one of the countless root checking apps on Google Play Store.
Could you let me know a clear way to unlock the bootloader on the Yoga Tab YT-X705F? The instructions you've provided don't point to anything helpful beyond activating USB Debugging.

Thanks for pointing that out! - I've updated my notes above, but if your familiar with fastboot the command is simply "fastboot oem unlock-go", no unlock code needed for these guys. It will wipe your device and void your warranty though, in case you're not already aware.
Cheers!
Thanks for this rooting guide! I was able to root my YT-X705F
Here some comments/hints:
- At first make sure your downloading the right stock firmware. I've tried a different one which results into a boot loop. One way to find out the right version is to start into the recovery mode. In the header you will find the right version. In my case it was YT-X705F_S001130_210508_ROW
- Make sure you have actually unlocked the boot loader. "fastboot flash x y.img" worked, so I didn't recognized that the boot loader was not unlocked. This was reason for "fastboot boot y.img" shows errors "FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))".
- The extracted stock firmware have no "Mainfolder". All files, including boot.img and recovery.img, contained in the root directory of the ZIP file.
- After installing Magisk app (v23.0) it shows me: Installed: N/A, Ramdisk: No, A/B: No, SAR: Yes. According to this Magisk installation guide you have to patch the recovery image instead of the boot.

- Patching the recovery image was fine with Magisk. No errors was shown. Please note I used the recovery.img
After this I was able to boot the patched image without flashing it:
After "fastboot boot patched_recovery.img" nothing happens. The tablet keeps showing me the Linux Tux image. I have to disconnect the USB cable and then I booted into system.
*Upd. never mind, I download the official rom file from lenovo\
Crap. I patched the boot image with Magisk, and by the time I flashed it - the system got updated from S001133 to S001135, and I'm getting a bootloop. Can someone maybe upload original boot img from S001135?
Or what else can I do? the update isn't on the mirror server yet https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/lenovo/Yoga_Smart_Tab/YT-X705F/
Rooting was successful! Thanks for the guide. Since I cannot find any section in the forum for the YT-x705 tablet, I thought I can have a follow up question in here. The reason I rooted was because alexa app keeps getting removed after each reboot. I rooted as I wanted to convert it into a system app.
So far, I've been unsuccessful . I have tried with the systemizer module and titanium backup. Anyone have any idea how we can retain alexa app after a reboot? Interestingly enough, titanium backup shows alexa as frozen after I install alexa from playstore, despite it appearing in my app launcher. I am unable to unfreeze it. Alexa is then removed after I reboot.
Quick question: What do i do if i don't have a "MainCode" folder, on the tablet or in the extracted folder.
or is that just the folder with the maincode, in it?
Thanks, looks like a good guide!
Jim
you're just going into the zip file from step 2 where the boot.img file is. I just followed all these instructions and got my yoga rooted.
ugh...I don't have a device that I can root for a couple of years... and it feels like I'm a complete noob, now!
when i try to flash the boot image I'm getting: FAILED (remote: Partition flashing is not allowed)
When i run fastboot oem device-info i get this:
PS C:\Users\Jim\Downloads\YT-X705F_S001135_210909_ROW (1)> ./fastboot oem device-info
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: true
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.007s]
Finished. Total time: 0.010s
So i don't think i am unlocked. even after following the steps. I've got Developer options, Debugging is obviously working, OEM Unlocking is toggled on.
I feel like on my phones we had to run an adb or fastboot command, and then the device would reboot and reset it and it would then be unlocked.
Am i missing something?
Thanks again!!
Jim
p.s. and once i get it working, what roms can i flash? any of the "yoga" roms? or do i need to look at something specific like the 3 or 4?
answered my own question!
i had to run: fastboot oem unlock-go
the device rebooted and reset
now i get this:
PS C:\Users\Jim\Downloads\YT-X705F_S001135_210909_ROW (1)> ./fastboot oem device-info
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: true
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.007s]
Now on to the next step!
So anyone know what ROMs i should use and how best to install them, i don't think we have a working TWRP, do we?
... after crash of my booting Android 10 system last stock rom my yt-x705F 210909 can't be rooted anymore!
i use some app and this app ask for busybox .... so crash !!!
i reset tablet by system recovery .
"wipe data/ factory reset"
after restart my tablet is working again.
Bootloader is still open
also develover mode is working USB Debugging etc.
but no rooting alowed by patching root img .. see next
now i try to install stock rom NEW but some error
"apply update from external storage " get error
same is from "Apply update from ADB" abd sideload file.img
are this zip files from this server corrupt? mirros lolinet ?

The download link seems broken. Also what firmware is ROM based on OOS 11 or 12 ?
With the kebab version should also work

I'm a newbie here, the last time I have installed a custom ROM on Asus phone over five years ago with lineage os.
Will I be successful if I follow below instructions, as your instructions above are short and suited for pros.
search
Install LineageOS on kebabkeyboard_arrow_left Back to the overview
warning
WARNING: These instructions only work if you follow every section and step precisely.
Do not continue after something fails!
Basic requirements
Read through the instructions at least once before actually following them, so as to avoid any problems due to any missed steps!
Make sure your computer has adb and fastboot. Setup instructions can be found here.
Enable USB debugging on your device.
Make sure that your model is actually listed in the “Supported models” section here (exact match required!)
warning
WARNING: Before following these instructions please ensure that the device is currently using Android 12 firmware.
If the vendor provided multiple updates for that version, e.g. security updates, make sure you are on the latest!
If your current installation is newer or older than Android 12, please upgrade or downgrade to the required version before proceeding (guides can be found on the internet!).
Unlocking the bootloaderinfo_outline
NOTE: The steps below only need to be run once per device.
warning
WARNING: Unlocking the bootloader will erase all data on your device! Before proceeding, ensure the data you would like to retain is backed up to your PC and/or your Google account, or equivalent. Please note that OEM backup solutions like Samsung and Motorola backup may not be accessible from LineageOS once installed.
Enable OEM unlock in the Developer options under device Settings, if present.
Connect the device to your PC via USB.
On the computer, open a command prompt (on Windows) or terminal (on Linux or macOS) window, and type:
adb reboot bootloader
You can also boot into fastboot mode via a key combination:
With the device powered off, hold Volume Up + Volume Down + Power.
Once the device is in fastboot mode, verify your PC finds it by typing:
fastboot devices
If you don’t get any output or an error:
on Windows: make sure the device appears in the device manager without a triangle. Try other drivers until the command above works!
on Linux or macOS: If you see no permissions fastboot try running fastboot as root. When the output is empty, check your USB cable and port!
Now type the following command to unlock the bootloader:
fastboot oem unlock
info_outline
NOTE: At this point the device may display on-screen prompts which will require interaction to continue the process of unlocking the bootloader. Please take whatever actions the device asks you to to proceed.
If the device doesn’t automatically reboot, reboot it. It should now be unlocked.
Since the device resets completely, you will need to re-enable USB debugging to continue.
Flashing the dtbo partitionwarning
WARNING: This platform requires the dtbo partition to be flashed for recovery to work properly, the process to do so is described below.
Download dtbo file from here. Download the file named dtbo.img from the directory named with the latest date.
Power off the device, and boot it into bootloader mode:
With the device powered off, hold Volume Up + Volume Down + Power.
Flash the downloaded image file to your device by typing (replace <dtbo> with the actual filename!):
fastboot flash dtbo <dtbo>.img
Installing a custom recovery using fastboot
Download Lineage Recovery. Simply download the latest recovery file, named something like lineage-19.1-20220825-recovery-kebab.img.
Connect your device to your PC via USB.
On the computer, open a command prompt (on Windows) or terminal (on Linux or macOS) window, and type:
adb reboot bootloader
You can also boot into fastboot mode via a key combination:
With the device powered off, hold Volume Up + Volume Down + Power.
Once the device is in fastboot mode, verify your PC finds it by typing:
fastboot devices
If you don’t get any output or an error:
on Windows: make sure the device appears in the device manager without a triangle. Try other drivers until the command above works!
on Linux or macOS: If you see no permissions fastboot try running fastboot as root. When the output is empty, check your USB cable and port!
check
TIP: Some devices have buggy USB support while in bootloader mode, if you see fastboot hanging with no output when using commands such as fastboot getvar ..., fastboot boot ..., fastboot flash ... you may want to try a different USB port (preferably a USB Type-A 2.0 one) or a USB hub.
Flash recovery onto your device (replace <recovery_filename> with the actual filename!):
fastboot flash recovery <recovery_filename>.img
Now reboot into recovery to verify the installation.
Use the menu to navigate to and to select the Recovery option.
Ensuring all firmware partitions are consistentinfo_outline
NOTE: The steps below only need to be run once per device.
In some cases, the inactive slot can be unpopulated or contain much older firmware than the active slot, leading to various issues including a potential hard-brick. We can ensure none of that will happen by copying the contents of the active slot to the inactive slot.
To do this, sideload the copy-partitions-20220613-signed.zip package by doing the following:
Download the copy-partitions-20220613-signed.zip file from here. It should have a MD5 sum of 79f2f860830f023b7030c29bfbea7737 or a SHA-256 sum of 92f03b54dc029e9ca2d68858c14b649974838d73fdb006f9a07a503f2eddd2cd.
Sideload the copy-partitions-20220613-signed.zip package:
On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.
On the host machine, sideload the package using: adb sideload copy-partitions-20220613-signed.zip
info_outline
NOTE: The copy-partitions script was created by LineageOS developer erfanoabdi and filipepferraz
Now reboot to recovery by tapping “Advanced”, then “Reboot to recovery”.
Installing LineageOS from recovery
Download the LineageOS installation package that you would like to install or build the package yourself.
(Optionally): If you want to install an application package add-on such as Google Apps (use the arm64 architecture), please read and follow the instructions on Google Apps page
If you are not in recovery, reboot into recovery:
With the device powered off, hold Volume Down + Power.
Now tap Factory Reset, then Format data / factory reset and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption and delete all files stored in the internal storage, as well as format your cache partition (if you have one).
Return to the main menu.
Sideload the LineageOS .zip package:
On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.
On the host machine, sideload the package using: adb sideload filename.zip.
check
TIP: Normally, adb will report Total xfer: 1.00x, but in some cases, even if the process succeeds the output will stop at 47% and report adb: failed to read command: Success. In some cases it will report adb: failed to read command: No error or adb: failed to read command: Undefined error: 0 which is also fine.
(Optionally): If you want to install any add-ons, click Advanced, then Reboot to Recovery, then when your device reboots, click Apply Update, then Apply from ADB, then adb sideload filename.zip those packages in sequence.
info_outline
NOTE: Add-ons aren’t signed with LineageOS’s official key, and therefore when they are sideloaded, Lineage Recovery will present a screen that says Signature verification failed, this is expected, please click Continue.
info_outline
NOTE: If you want the Google Apps add-on on your device, you must follow this step before booting into LineageOS for the first time!
Once you have installed everything successfully, click the back arrow in the top left of the screen, then “Reboot system now”.
