Hi folks!
I wanted to install Cyanogenmod as described in Cyanogenmod Wiki.
So I downloaded ioroot, rootet my phone via adb and used AutoRec to install TWRP (version 2.7.0.0).
Then I rebooted into recovery mode, wiped EVERYTHING and wanted to sideload the CM image via adb.
So in TWRP I selected Advanced/ADB Sideload and swipe to start sideload but all that happens is the notification "Starting ADB sideload feature...".
Consequently the phone is not recognized by adb on my PC.
What can I do to make the sideload feature work?
BTW: TWRP tells me that my devices doesnt appear to be rooted when I want to leave TWRP (reboot). Moreover when i want to enter TWRP again (by pressing POWER + VOLUE DOWN) I first get a screen that asks me if want to do a factory hard reset! Only if I agree (by pressing the power key) I get into TWRP.
Contrary when I enter the Download Mode (VOLUME UP when when connecting the powered off phone to the USB port) I am told that the phone is rooted. Moreover the LG Mobile Support Tool is able to detect the device and tells me that the installed software is up to date.
Thx!!
have you tried typing 'adb sideload rom.zip' on a command window on your pc? name the rom, rom.zip, and have it your adb folder.. also type the command from that folder
Make sure you're in the proper folder in prompt and the device name will be sideload if you do, adb devices.

Thanks but this doesnt help either. Same error message "error: device not found"
boot into twrp, don't start sideload
try adb devices, if you get not find you need to change the usb drivers
when you have it working, type, adb push /sdcard/ rom.zip .. check the syntax on that command, but i think that's right from memory

I had a problem and my wifi tablet is now bootlooping. So I looked into using adb sideload to re-install a rom.
When I enter sideload (twrp) and do adb devices it lists my device with sideload beside it.
C:\Windows\system32>adb devices
List of devices attached
0123456789ABCDEF sideload
when I try to sideload the rom adb c:\rom.zip I get error closed.
I tried adb usb to reset the usb but getting error closed.
C:\Windows\system32>adb usb
error: closed
By the way I am running windows 8
Really stuck any ideas!
I have been able to download the stock image and use fastboot to flash so I think I have the issue sorted!
I had the same problem three days ago. Try this method. It works for me write this on command " adb sideload filename.zip" hit enter don't put quote. If this not for you, go head try
adb push filename/data/media/
If you are on 4.2.2
adb push filename/data/media/0/
Good luck

Sideload mode is just a subfunction of your recovery. Create a blank .zip file and push it to the device using adb push C:\pathtozip\whatever.zip to abort. You'll be kicked back to your recovery and will be able to reboot.
hi there
I installed twrp using adb, that means i am able to use adb when i'm in the OS
but when i boot into TWRP, i cant get my pc to recognize my phone, when i type "adb devices", nothing shows up ...
and when im in TWRP and go to advanced, adb sideload, i swipe to start it and it says "starting adb sideload feature.." and it stays forever -_-
what could be the problem and how can i fix it ?

Which twrp, first version didn't have adb support as I recall...
Happened to me too. Go to device manager and uninstall any drivers, then install generic adb device
I'm stuck right here as far as download mode goes.
I installed TWRP on a d800 rooted with stock 4.2.2. The TWRP install went ok but it never booted afterward.
I can get into twrp, but can't sideload anything because the computer does not connect to the device, I hear the connection noise the computer makes but nothing in the device manager.
any ideas?
May I suggest you use "adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip" instead of sideload (the sideload doesn't have to be enabled)

Thanks, I get
error: closed
I was wrong about my computer not seeing my device, it's in the device manager under Android and the adb drivers are installed.
I also renamed the rom to "update" to make it simpler
What's up now ?
Sorted it out or still issues there ?
I also tried the adb shell method.
I also tried this method through TWRP terminal and nada.
If I did something wrong here let me know, hopefully I can get it up and going

This is what I get when I do the above. The CMD prompt in located in the same directory as the adb files
ADB sees my device as this #

ok, let's do it like this
1. copy rom to c:\rom.zip
2. while in adb folder "adb push c:\rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip"
that should work, you don't need sideload to be enabled.
Please test and report.

I moved the file to the root of my C drive changed the name to "rom.zip"
Copied the command you supplied and got this result
I know my phone is connected because I can reboot it by using the command " adb reboot"
I used this;
adb push C:\Android\sdk\platform-tools\rom.zip
And it is now ready to install through TWRP!
Hold your breath.......
Edit;
Failed but at least it's in the twrp list
"unable to open zip"
I think I got it, I was able to access the firmware update screen.
Sorry fir these incomplete responses, I don't want you to keep looking for a resolve while I do this.
If your still here?
I'll be back!
Success!
After nothing would work except for loading the rom through adb I decided to wipe the whole thing.
I reloaded the rom and when selected for install it opened instead of preparing for install so I thought I would reboot and when I did I was prompted by su that my device may have lost root and gave me the option to reinstall it, I chose yes and when rebooting it hung (normal) at the LG logo, however this time the charge light was flashing! I attempted to access "download" and was successful in loading the stock rom.
In the end it looks like TWRP was the culprit, it used to be my favorite but not for this device
All is well, thanks for your help...
After flashing recovery via flashify i get TWRP 2.6.3.3
but when i try to get firmware update mode (download mode) it stucks says: download mode.. and cannot recognize by PC whatsoever, so cannot use lg flash tool or support tool or dp-tool.
and in this mode phone gets really hot!
when i enter recovery i couldnt manage to install any rom because my sdcard is empty and otg-usb is not recognizable.
and in recovery mode, pc cannot detect the device only unknown device as "LG D802"
so i found android adb driver and manuelly install to windows.. but still i cannot pust any file over usb via adb.
adb push command gives me "read only system" error.
i also tried adb sideload to install custom rom from pc..
adb sideload command still gives me "read only file system"
i am assuming this is due to secured Kernel.. but i don't know what to do..
i also try the terminal command in twrp for adb commands.. but still no luck.
what can i do to push any custom rom.zip or any way around to install kdz?
i manually installed usb adv driver.. do i need to install as lg adb device..
can you give me a link to adb "inf" driver file?
Y uninstall current lg driver and download newest driver then reinstall( y can use google to find). Good luck
thanks i solved the problem via ubuntu.
i used "adb push" to /sdcard still got "read only" error.
but when i used "adb push" to /tmp i can managed to send/copy some zip files into my device.
Hello,
i delete the System and Data on my LeEco Le Pro3.
TWRP is installed.
Can i flash a rom with an usb flash drive in TWRP or fastboot?
greeting gizez
Boot into TWRP and use MTP to transfer ROM file from your PC to Phone. Then flash the ROM.
I have this problem, but I can't see the phone when connected to a PC. adb sideload doesn't work (adb devices doesn't find anything). Do I need to install driver for the phone? I originally used fastboot to unlock the bootloader and flashed TWRP, then installed LineageOS and gapps just fine. I then proceeded to wipe system in TWRP (I was trying to get back to new phone setup so I can transfer stuff from old phone, which I skipped the first time).
Any idea how to get around this? I tried plugging in pen drive through an micro USB OTG and a usb-c to micro usb adapter, but it's not recognized in TWRP, either. Would very much appreciate any help!
You can get your data. First try to connect phone while is in TWRP. Your phone can be detected as file manager. Try this.
If not, check my theme;

Go Advanced -> ADB Sideload, type "adb sideload aicp_zl1_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170516.zip" (zip of OS should be downloaded and put into "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" installation folder with name as same as the text of command). It should let you turn on system.

Also "adb push" command can be helpful. Sometimes phone is not current on adb devices list, but you can also try. As i remember, target should be /sdcard/0

Thanks, but unfortunately no luck. Both adb sideload and adb push said error - device '(null)' not found. It seems like the PC is not recognizing the phone. I checked device manager on the PC, it showed LEX727. I right-click and had it install the driver. It says driver successfully installed. Then device manager showed MTP device with a !. I again tried having driver installed, but this time it doesn't find any driver.
I'm at my wit's end... Any more suggestion?
TWRP and/or Minimal ADB isn't trouble here? Tried you both on main menu of TWRP and in ADB Sideload mode? You can also try do it trough bootloader, for this check my link and read all.

Actually, the problem is solved, by using another PC. This one showed LEX727 in windows explorer as soon as i plug in the phonr (in twrp). I was able to drag and drop the zip files to the phone and go on my merry way. Now back in business!
