HELP

So I managed to make a BIG booboo and I formatted my /data directory and /sdcard directory I keep trying to "push" a new rom on via adb but it just keeps tossing an error

C:\android-adb>adb push kitkat.zip /sdcard/kitkat.zip

failed to copy 'kitkat.zip' to '/sdcard/kitkat.zip': No such file or directory

For the remote directory I've tried

"."

"/sdcard"

"/sdcard/0"

and some others but I always get the same error.

Anyone have any ideas? I'll be more than willing to buy anyone who can help a few beers or more!!!:silly:

Your destination does not need to include the filename only the directory path. /sdcard or /data/media should be sufficient

Thanks MAN, I'll be sending a donation your way in a few minutes!!

One more quick question just out of curiosity, I should be able to do something like one of the following to get an idea of the directory structure correct?

adb shell ls

adb <device name> shell ls

I bought my HTC One pre-rooted running Cyanogenmod on 4.4 and CWM, but I wanted sense back so I went to get Android Revolution HD. I downloaded the zip and put it on my phone after following the previous instructions. However, when I go to install from /sdcard my zip isn't showing. I put it directly in the root of the phone, and now I can't connect the phone to the computer to drag the ROM back on. The phone will not boot, but I can still go into recovery mode. I tried adb push and adb sideload commands but it always says "device not found" even though I have Sync Manager and the device connected in recovery mode. Does this mean my phone is f*cked? I just got it two days ago..

And if there is no way to use the computer, can I order I mini usb to usb and just put the zip on the flash drive and install from that directory?

Thanks.

Help unlocking DNA firmware 3.06

I apologize as Im sure this is a re-post, but I have scoured this forum, and the internet for over an hour and have not been able to find a clear method on rooting my DNA running the current 3.06 firmware. I rooted my thunderbolt back in the day, but I feel like Im doing it for the first time again. It seems a little more complex than it was with the thunderbolt, and I want to do it right the first time. I really want to download KitKat with Sense 5.5.

Hello everyone, I am having some issues with my rom installation. This is the first time I've ever done this on a Droid DNA and I missed something important. My phone responds to ADB and fastboot, however when i proceeded to follow this guide I forgot to copy the ViperDNA ROM to the SD card and now I have formated the system files and wiped data.

I freaked out and restarted my phone but it only stays stuck in the HTC boot logo and I dont know what to do. I tried using the ADB sideload option on CMW but for some reason I cant, it always fails. I don't know if I bricked it or something. My phone specs on bootloader are the following:

moonshine s-off

monarudo pvt ship s-off

cid-vzw__001

hboot-1.33.4444

Then install the zip normally through CWM.

Thanks guys for your insite, but I still have no luck with this. And now to make it worse the CMD is saying error: device not found.

Try installing pdanet, it does a great job of installing the correct USB drivers for HTC devices.

Your safest bet (most time consuming) would be to do this.

1. Download the latest 4.09 RUU

3. Run Firewater to get S-Off and unlocked bootloaders

4. flash custom firmware and rom

Ruu continues to give me error 158

I hope im posting in the correct forum (forgive me if im not i mean no disrespect) im new to this rooting thing and made a choice the other day to root my htc dna thats currently on kit kat 4.4.2. I started out with clockworkmod and didnt like that so i then flashed twrp. The reason i didnt want to continue with clockworkmod is because i notice that there was some storage issues going on, i went to my settings and located my storage and saw that the other field was reading that over 13gb was being used up. I couldnt find out what the 13gb was so i started researching and found out that clockworkmod might have been having some issues with duplicating the os therefore taking up too much space. So what i did was try to flash the twrp thinking that would work and the storage was still being taken, so i started researching again and found out that i would need to do a factory reset and start all over....well when i did some how i erased the os as well now im stuck on the htc screen or i have the option of booting up into twrp but thats it.... I downloaded what i thought was the right ruu but thats not working i keep getting error 158....please somebody help me!!!!!!

Thanks, but.....No WiFi

Hi and thanks totally,

I'm absolutely new to this and have been bouncing around the internet for the last couple of weeks just getting confused. A click on the 'Thanks' button just doesn't cut it. This guide is amazing and I now 'get it', or at least some of it. So much so that I had a try today.

I have an old HTC Desire which I'm using as a test subject (I admit that I'm scared stiff of doing this sort of stuff with my HTC M8!).

I installed the ADT and then used the CWM and Fastboot to flash the CM10 ROM and the NOPE 700 kernel. All went as advertised until the final reboot when I found that everything wass working apart from the WiFi!

Don't want to bother you, but can you suggest a solution? I must have missed something, but I wasn't aware of anything.

Apart from that, there are very few apps in the ROM, so I understand I need to flash GAPPS - can you tell me how to do this? There seem to be lots of them, but I read that you need different ones for different ROMs, is this true?

Thanks for bringing me this far, KC

Got it!

I went through the process again and all is fine now. My next stage is to keep playing with it until I break it!!! This is fun! KC
[HTC Droid DNA] kcandteresa:
Reboot Bug?

OK, the phone is now working well - just one problem that I need help with....

Whenever I switch it off and then plug the USB charger cable in, the phone starts up into CWM at the 'reboot system now' entry. If I let it reboot, it does so normally and the phone is ready to go. So, I switch it off again, but instead of staying off, it reboots back to CWM. I can't charge the phone unless it is switched on - it keeps starting up again so long as the charger is plugged in.

Is this the reboot bug that I've heard of?

Can anyone please tell me why this is happening and what I can do to make the phone switch off and stay off while I charge it up?

KC

Need a little help.

Hey guys,

I'm new (as in totallly new) to HTC. I've had a Droid 2, a Droid 3, and a Droid Bionic (still using) so the only real rooting/romming methods I've used have all dealt with things specific to Motorola - i.e. locked bootloaders, no real way to screw anything up, safestrap, which seems comparable to TWRP, etc, etc. Dad recently got a SGS5 and gave me his DNA because he said it wouldn't complete calls or something, and he said if I can fix it then I can have it, so we'll see what happens when I start tinkering. Questions though (yes, I've googled a **** ton, but I still have questions):

1. How up to date is the OP's guide?

2. If not up to date, is there another guide that is?

3. What is S-off? (is this what unlocks the bootloader?)

4. Or is "Firewater" what unlocks the bootloader?

5. Or is there something I'm missing regarding the bootloader?

5. What are the opinions on the best available roms (wireless tether a must have)?

6. What am I forgetting? ;)

Any help would be awesome. I'm not totally stupid; pretty experienced crack flasher here, just on the Moto side of things. I don't want to break this phone if I can fix it or if a ROM will fix it because it seems really nice. I just need to be pointed in the right direction. Thanks in advance for any response!

Nola

EDIT: sorry guys, I missed the FAQ thread somehow. I'll poke around in there. The only question I had that I can still see being relevant would be whether or not this is the most up to date guide?

I should be able to find everything I need in there. Feel free to give me a heads up on any tips though :)

cant charge

I have a rooted/s-off DNA that was stuck in a boot loop-Don't know what happened, just got hot in my pocket and was in a loop. Had been running a 4.4.4 rom (slimkat) for months without a problem.

So, now (after going crazy with formatting) it will start into CWM recovery when plugged into USB, but only for about 10 seconds before it dies again. It won't charge enough to run for any extended period. I can connect via ADB and push or sideload a small file--- I there anything I can push or sideload that will bring back charging so I can go on from there. I can't get into fastboot, only CWM recovery (6.0.4.5).

Thanks-

Please provide an active link for cwm recovery

Searching for 3 days, still not found a valid link for cwm recovery. Unfortunately my device has been incompletely rooted and want to flash a custom/go back to stock rom.

Most of the devices boot up even in stock rom when connected to power if it is sufficient to run the device, it is not a reboot bug.

I can do that with any ZIP file: ROMs, GAPPs, Kernels, Magisk etc. Could someone please explain to me why I need these other tools and to unzip these files? Am I missing something important?

Its NFC tag finding something. Maybe you have nfc enabled card or anything in your pocket or nearby. It happens if I have my university id card with me in same pocket.

If not, you have some problem with ROM/Kernel combo. I would suggest clean flash ROM/Kernel again.
