How to install a rom with TWRP (for NOOBS) - LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion

Download Revolution Rom 5.8_15s for Le Max2 onto your c:\ drive of your PC. Reboot your device into fastboot mode (make sure you have your USB cable attached and the drivers loaded on your PC for ADB). Next make sure you have the twrp.img downloaded and copy it to your ADB folder. Then open up a command prompt session. Change the directory to your ADB directory. Type <adb devices>, this this will start the server and return info from your phone (provided you have installed the drivers). Verify that you can see your device in Windows File Explorer. If you can see the device and its' internal storage proceed to wipe everything. That means Dalvick, cache, system, data and internal storage. That is a clean install. Once it is all wiped, go back to your pc and copy the rom from you c: drive to your internal storage. Once the copy is complete you should still be in TWRP on your device. Simply go to <INSTALL> and flash the rom. If you have done everything properly upon completion of the install, reboot into system. All should be good.

[Q] can't update

Hi,
I installed cm7 with the stable build 7.0.3 and for some reason couldn't get gapps to work. the n I tried to update to 7.1.0 rc but I can't for some reason. I tried reboot into recovery and install from SD on ROM manger but it wouldn't work. can someone please help me?
What kind of error messages do you get? Does it reboot and fail? Or does the install fail? Elaborate please. Or, if you don't want to answer those question but take forever to install, here goes the El Guide:
0.5: Go into settings>applications. Tick Nonmarket installs and usb debugging.
1. Backup all your data. Simple. Do this on a computer with ADB:
Code:
mkdir Backup
and
Code:
adb pull /data/app/ app/
lastly:
Code:
adb pull /data/data/ data/
2. Download CM7. Pick your version. Nightly, RC, stable. Download it to the sd card. Also google "gapps" and download the universal version, for all devices. Put that on the sd card. Also download any other things to have flashed (OC kernel, Keysmod) and put it in the sd card.
3. Boot into ClockWork Mod. (Rom Manager > Reboot into recovery) Using the volume button to navigate, go to mounts + storage, and format system, data, and cache. Go into advanced and formate dalvik cache.
4. Now hit the power button, select Install zip from sd card, choose zip from sd card, then find the cm_encore_xx_xx.zip. Select Yes to flash.
4.5: Do the same step to get to selecting the zip, but this time pick gapps. Then also flash any other things you need too. (OC Kernel, keysmod)
5: Power button> reboot device
6. Boot into CM7. Set up the installation. Now plug into the computer.
7. Make sure the nook is setup on cm7 and is at the home screen, NO OTHER ACTIVITY GOING ON.
8. Run these commands from the computer using ADB:
Code:
cd Backup
Code:
adb push app/ /data/app/
(wait, it depends how long on the amount of apps you had.)
Code:
adb push data/ /data/data/
Code:
adb reboot
System should reboot, with data & apps restored. If all you get is a bunch of force closes on boot or launching an app, redo steps 2-7 but then do this:
-begin steps for desperate people-
Go into settings>applications. Tick Non-market installs and usb debugging.
Download File Expert from the market.
Run on the computer:
Code:
adb push app/ /sdcard/install/app/
Code:
adb push data/ /sdcard/install/data/
Make sure before that there is enough space on the sd card to hold those two folders.
Now run file expert, go into the install folder, press+hold on the app folder, and select "Install all APK Packages" Now just select install for each file. Now run this adb command:
Code:
adb push data/ /data/data/
Now reboot. BAM! Apps restored. And app data too.
-end desperate people instructions-
There you have it. A [long post to type in the quick reply form] guide to install cm7 latest. Note that for most future releases, these steps won't be necessary. The only thing will be to flash cm7, gapps, and other packages. This process of backuping and stuff was becaus (for me) upgrading to a major release caused issues.
To elaborate, it does nothing. I follow verygreens method to install a new build. I put it on the SD card( file is a zipped one) and then put it in my nook color and power on. Then I reboot in recovery. It just doesn't do anything. same for gapps. I thing I may be doing it wrong. I also tried going to install from SD ( in ROM manager) and I found the build and choose it. It then shows me reboot options and I pick wipe Dalvik cache and back up existing ROM. It then reboots and does nothing.
P.S. I don't have any data on my nook color that I can't install again.

ADB Sideload
1. Connect your phone make sure it's actually connected. No errors in Device Manager
2. Rename the downloaded ROM you want to flash to something basic, like rom.zip (Names can get rather long)
3. Open CMD (command prompt), & navigate it to the folder you placed the ROM in. or just press shift and right click on the folder where the rom is and select open command prompt here
4. Boot to recovery on your phone and enable the ADB sideload function. Under Advanced in TWRP...not sure about CWM
5. in CMD type adb sideload rom.zip or what ever the name of the .zip is
6. Let TWRP or CWM flash the zip and prompt for reboot.
7. Reboot and be happy, your phone is fixed!
You can then transfer the gapps to your internal storage and flash the normal way through your reecovery or just go through the same process for the gapps after you flash the rom.

Installing adb doesnt have to do with what mode your phone is in.

help please

i format my Nexus 4 on twrp recovery using advance wipe and i checked all the box there, and when i rebooted its stuck on google logo, what should i do?
Well why would you do that? If you selected everything under advanced in twrp, that means that you have also wiped the system partition so there is no rom to boot into, hence why you are stuck at the google logo. You will need to use adb to copy a rom onto your phone, and then flash it via twrp. Instructions:
1. Setup adb: http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-set-up-android-adb-and-fastboot-on-windows-tutorial/
2. Install Koush's universal adb driver (google this for the download)
3. Put the phone into twrp
4. Download a rom on your pc and move it to your desktop. Rename it to "rom.zip".
5. Open a command prompt window and run the following commands:
Code:
adb devices
If your phones serial number shows up, continue. If not, reinstall drivers.
Code:
cd Desktop
adb push rom.zip /sdcard/
6. After its finished pushing, go to install within twrp and flash it.
when i typed in cd desktop it says "The system cannot find the path specified". and when i continue to adb push rom.zip /sdcard/ it says "cannot stat rom.zip: no such file or directory"
it worked, thanks for your help.
I hope you realized when you checked all the boxes, you checked to wipe the internal storage which holds all your personal data.
And you checked to wipe /system partition which house the operating system, of course there wouldn't be anything to boot into.

How can i copy Rom zip to phone, i formatted, no rom to flash but i have recovery

I deleted Rom file in sdcard. I cant flash a rom. I have recovery, root and Philz Touch.
How can i copy Rom zip file from computer to Phone? Any idea. I have rooted KK, i dont want to do all things again.
How to: Copy ROM zip file to the freshly wiped device
I found and share with you, it worked.
Have you ever been in a situation where you mistakenly (or not) wiped the content of the internal storage (including system partition and virtual SD card) on your phone or tablet and unfortunately it doesn't support external storage? Now you can't flash desired custom ROM because you removed it and the device can't be booted due to wiped system partition. Don't worry - it's very easy to fix!
Here are the steps you need to follow to copy the correct rom.zip package to your internal storage:
Download this mini-sdk package and extract it to c:\mini-sdk
Rename the custom ROM package you want to flash to "rom.zip" and copy it to c:\mini-sdk
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in recovery mode
Open a command prompt on the PC (cmd.exe), type and confirm each command with ENTER:
cd /d c:\mini-sdk
adb shell
mount /data (error might mean that /data partition is already mounted)
on Android 4.2 and above: mkdir -p /data/media/0
on Android 4.1.2 and below: mkdir -p /data/media
exit
on Android 4.2 and above: adb push rom.zip /data/media/0
on Android 4.1.2 and below: adb push rom.zip /data/media
Wait for a few minutes until the file is copied. It will looks like command shell is not responding, but that means it's still copying. Wait patiently until you'll see blinking cursor again.
Depends on your custom recovery, use the navigation keys to flash the custom rom.zip package in a typical way you used to flash custom ROMs. It should be on your internal storage now. Done! http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com.tr/2013/12/how-to-copy-rom-zip.html
easier solution:
*bring device in recovery mode
*open cmd, go to adb.exe
*type adb.exe push *filename.zip* /sdcard/your path **/sdcard is already linked to /data/media/0
*wait after pushing the file, reboot recovery again
*choose file and flash
*** other method ***
*use the sideload function in recovery
*adb.exe sideload *rom.zip* in cmd
it says usb device descriptor failed...is it due to bad cable??

You can copy the file over from TWRP. Just connect to the computer boot into TWRP, go under Mounts, and Mount USB. You can just copy and paste from your computer to the phone, then unmount, and flash the file in CWM
Otherwise,
1. Open your cmd and navigate to the folder with the adb files(the folder where you flashed your roms, kernels, or recovery).
2. Access the cwm at your phone and connect an usb cable to the computer.
3. Put the files that you wanted to send to your phone at that particular folder
4. Type "adb push (filename) /sdcard/(filename)". Example, "adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip"
4.1. Depending on your OS, you may want to add "./" at the front of the command if you're using unix based os(this is an oversimplified version)
5. Wait until it finishes its transfer(a message will appear saying the filename, file size and the speed of the transfer per sec when it finishes)
6. Wait for a while or reboot your cwm so that the filename will appear and just reflash the file.
