i can get to no drivers screen but as soon i try to run adb nothing anyone got any advice
cheers in advance

You won't get ADB to run in Fastboot mode. Follow the instructions in the recovery thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mad...overy-twrp-2-8-2-0-recovery-mad-catz-t2973640
Make sure you have the TWRP.img in the same folder as the fastboot command and boot to the image on the computer, not the MOJO.

Alright Mate
when i run super boot in Terminal i can do anything. I tried looking for devices and i get command not found if i try to flash a rom i just get permission denied its like the box isnt there

As it says in the linked thread, boot the MOJO to the recovery image located on the PC. Then flash the ROM of choice to the MOJO using the recovery.

Need help with ADB on a mac

I'm trying to install baconbits on my G2 and I have a mac. I cannot seem to get the recovery image to work through fastboot. Help?
I can access the phone through the terminal but once I command it to reboot to the bootloader I can't get it to find the img file
There's a fastboot binary available for download from this page: http://developer.htc.com/adp.html
I have the binary in my sdk's tools folder but I still can't figure it out. Where/how do input the command to boot the img file?

You can flash files from recovery if they are on the SD card. You can either adb push while in recovery, or mount USB storage and tranfer the file. Or just transfer it via USB while the phone is on (big, green android screen)
I'm not sure how to install baconbits, but I think you need fastboot to flash the .img file. Recovery flashes .zip files and fastboot flashes .img files. You can put fastboot-mac in the same folder as adb... then fastboot flash recovery your_recovery.img. You really don't need adb (for this) since you can boot into fastboot on the phone by restarting while holding down the trackpad button.
These might be the droids you are looking for...
Code:
adb (read the instructions)
adb devices (you'll see your phone if it's plugged in, turned on, and in the proper mode)
adb reboot bootloader (white screen with androids on skateboards)
fastboot-mac (more reading...)
fastboot-mac devices (your phone again)
fastboot flash recovery your_recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
For some reason, I had a little trouble flashing my recovery- sometimes it would hang and wouldn't flash, sometimes it would only fastboot boot. So if you run into trouble, there might be other problems.
While you are at it, you might as well save yourself the trouble and either add the adb and flashboot folders into your path, or put the binaries somewhere in your path. I also renamed fastboot-mac to fastboot for simplicity.
Going to try that when I get out of class but I think you helped me realize what I was doing wrong. Thanks and will let you know if it works
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Okay I could get the fastboot prompts to work but when I try to flash the recovery it tells me "g2recovery.img" could not be loaded
okay, used clockwork and got it to work. yay!

MOJO Won't Boot Past Mad Catz Logo

After some help
The other night my MOJO just reboot itself when I clicked on an App ( KODI ) and since then won't boot past the Mad Catz logo. I hadn't had it long and it wasn't rooted or modified in anyway. I'm looking for some way to do a hard reset either by attaching a keyboard or connecting it to a PC. Any advice is appreciated.
Install the fastboot drivers and the TWRP image on a PC, see the development section and the TWRP thread. Connect the booted PC to the MOJO with a USB male2male cord then power on the MOJO. Following the directions in the thread boot the MOJO to the TWRP image and do a factory wipe. If that doesn't do it then reinstall the firmware or a custom ROM.

I've think I've managed to wipe the OS off my Mojo - I get back into fastboot but it says drivers not found, any idea how I can get back into TWRP as I know it is on the system

So far you're good. "Key driver not found" is normal, don't worry about it. Copy the TWRP .img to the same folder ON YOUR PC as the fastboot command. Now it depends on which fastboot you are using but you need to enter a command on the PC like:
fastboot-windows.exe -i 0x0738 boot openrecovery-twrp-2.8.2.0-mojo.img
See the recovery thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mad...overy-twrp-2-8-2-0-recovery-mad-catz-t2973640
So you're actually booting to an image on the PC, not on the MOJO.

Thanks - it worked! I managed to reboot into TWRP and then ADB sideload the CM12 build onto my SDCard (it wouldn't let me access the ext sd where all the files were stored). Then recovery was pretty easy. Thanks. However, I'm still having problems with the CM12 build and wifi dropping out.....still that's another story.

Hi all im new to this forum. I am having a problem with my N7 im trying to unbrick it with nexus tool kit but at the flashing stage its says FAILED write failed unknown error for all partitions and when I try to flash a rom in twrp it hangs on patching system unconditionally.

so you can boot to recovery or bootloader?
try nexus root toolkit - there is an option to unbrick. Wipe everything and try to unbrick.
how windows detects your N7? maybe try different usb cable - if not genuine, then cut a lil bit of plastic, so it goes all the way to the usb port
give some photos of what errors do you have in recovery

I can boot to bootloader and thats it that tool can't write to any partitions thats what I tried in the first place it erased the partitions but then could not write to them so im left with no system no kernel or recovery
Download drivers from here
Open cmd as admin and type fastboot devices, it should detect your n7 with some numbers and letters.
If you have grouper (wifi) n7 then download recovery here
Go to bootloader, connect n7 with pc and type:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Where twrp.img is the name of recovery file you downloaded.
Then type: fastboot reboot
In cmd you probably have to go to proper folder just use cd.. to go up a folder and cd name of the folder to go to proper folder. I use C:\adb as drivers install right there

Just flash the stock ROM with the stock recovery.
I can’t sideload it, “ adb not working “

Files all courupted
With stock recovery you can't use adb sideload in windows 10.
If you're unlocked i would flash Codeworkx TWRP, download the OOS 5.0.1 Full Rom Zip, boot into TWRP, copy the zip to your phone or sideload the zip.
If you're not unlocked (and thus being unable to flash twrp) use windows 7 and sideload the zip.
You can download ADB drivers here
Can you boot? Turn on USB debugging , make sure that you allow the device when booted.
Do an advanced devices when in the OS make sure it's there.
Then you can install a TWRP recovery and do what you need to.

be sure your bootloader is unlocked
turn your phone into fastboot
open command prompt to the folder your twrp is in.
rename the twrp image file to recovery.img
do the following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
after that boot into recovery
press adb sideload
on the computer, open command prompt to the folder where your zip file is in.
rename the rom zip file to rom.zip
do the following command: adb sideload rom.zip
done!
Thanks bro, I shall update you on the situation once I done, at work now.
Do I need to “open command promt “ at my sdk folder/plat-form tools?

Cannot adb to the phone in FASTBOOT. adb devices shows nothing when in FASTBOOT, but shows the device when in normal boot.
Hence I cannot upgrade TWRP from 3.2.1-1 to 3.2.3-0. Was trying this so to upgrade from beta23 to the beta 26, now 27 with which 3.2.1-1 seems to have problems.
A 2nd approach, just re-installing beta23 without Magisk18 gives the stock recovery which manages the beta27 install. But then I'm blocked from a Magisk18 install and still cannot use FASTBOOT mode to put TWRP back on.
Thought the adb drives could be old and sought new drivers, even assuming your link is to the most current I don't know how to get my Windows7 to use the zip file. Can you assist? This would let me put the latest TWRP, hence install Magisk18 and be rooted again!

what am I missing? adb sideload twrp fails

I am following this guide here to root oneplus 6t (european variant), 9.0.5 Android:
https://www.xda-developers.com/onepl...otloader-root/
bootloader is unlocked and I can see there is a positive connection between phone and PC by checking the output on adb devices and fastboot devices. both work as intended.
the problem is that when I try to adb sideload, it says that I need version 1.0.32. so this means I cannot flash the custom recovery.
any tips? been looking online for quite some time now and cannot figure out what to do anymore. where can I find this 1.0.32 adb version?
I am a long time user on nexus 5 and just bought this phone, want to root it aswell. (note: this does not mean I have high level of knowledge on these types of hacks, just wanted to have this clear.)
Are you trying to boot or to flash the recovery from adb ? If you're trying to install the recovery from adb it wont work, on a/b devices the recovery is part of the boot image wich needs to be patched, boot twrp.img and then get the bluespark twrp zip and flash it.

I can start the twrp, the problem is when I go into adb sideload and try to flash it. on pc is says "error" and on the phone it says I need to get adb 1.0.32. I am trying to flash that bluespark recovery with no luck.

You need to flash the zip from within the recovery that you booted using adb, not sideload it.
I already tried that, copied the files to the phone but when I try to access them through the bootable trwp, I cannot access them.
