Can you get into TWRP?
If so then go to TWRP/mount/ and press Mount USB storage. Then plug into the computer and transfer files.

What do you mean copy and paste? How?
Copy and paste. Find the rom in your files, copy the zip and paste it in your SD card.

Wow, if your asking this, you might as well start reading how to unbrick your phone, I think it's inevitable.

Fair enough, don't rush into anything then. Read, read, read..... Plug your phone into your computer, click in the downloaded rom, drag it into your internal sd card (phone) or your external card (micro sd) reboot into custom recovery, wipe, then flash rom, then reboot

It might seem like a lot of reading and info at first but if you are interested in flashing roms it's worth it to avoid turning your device into a brick.
To respond to your op I use es file explorer to copy files from pc to device via lan shares.
Flash rooted stock firmware via oden on your pc. Install custom recovery (cwm I find works best for stock and asop or aokp over twrp) and make sure you do a backup (nandroid) and IMEI prior to flashing a Rom.

An enormous mess

Hello everybody, i'm here since a bit of time and i've always found every solution to my problems. Now i've made a very big mess. So.. i used to have aokp rom, and clockworkmod recovery. Then while trying to update, i tried TWRP 2.3.3.0 touch recovery. So i made a backup from the recovery and everything and then a full wipe.. the problem is that this recovery doesn't show me the SD card partition, and the backup i made was saved in /data, which was formatted with the wipe.. now i'm trying everything.. GNexus Toolkit, Odin.. but i can't get out of here.. any ideas on how to get back to Clockworkmod?
Edit: it gets in bootloader, recovery and download mode but there's no way my pc sees it, neither with the GNex toolkit nor with Odin
Did u try /data/media/ ?

yes.. but after a wipe that folder is now empty.
Edit: if i turn it on, the GNex toolkit, while trying to install ClockworkMod reeboots it in fastboot and then it says waiting for device.. why is that??
Flash clockwork recovery using fastboot.

When it gets in fastboot, GNextoolkit can't find any device.

1) put on your big boy pants and stop using a toolkit
2) its failing cause the drivers are not installed correctly.

Now with adb if the phone is ON i can communicate. I'm trying to put a ROM inside data/media and I can put it, but then it's not showing up in the recovery..?

Only backups are saved there. You have to put it in storage/emulated/0

Urgent help Required

I formatted /system by mistake. Now I am stuck on the Google Text I know I deleted the OS.
I can get into CW recovery. How to put rom files in SD card? Cause USB cant be detected in recovery mode.
I think you can use ADB to send files to your device. Or you can just use your computer to flash a stock image and start over. This is why I always keep backups and at least one ROM zip on my SD Card

Phone stuck in Recovery (TWRP) OTG Transfer possible?

Hey guys.
So my phone stuck in TWRP screen cause like an idiot I accidently erased system files as well.
Now I tried to adb push a rom bout I tried everything and couldn't get my both mac/windows to recognize the device.
So I now got a OTG cable to connect my USB key which I transferred a rom to use, but how do I get TWRP to recognize my USB key? If I go to INSTALL > EXTERNAL CARD it will not let me click on it.
Thanks!
Can you just load the ROM on an external SD card ? You can flash it from the external card in twrp.

Yeah so I transferred a rom.zip to my SD card than I went into INSTALL on TWRP to locate the file externally but it will not allow me to access the external memory.
Put the device into download mode and flash stock ROM and reroot

Male sure your drivers are installed properly and you are using a micro USB cord that supports data. If not it wont see it. When you say it wont connect have you opened Odin to see if it sees your phone in a com port ?
Not sure why it won't see your ext SD card. What's the size of it ?

That is your PC not recognizing your device, perhaps driver issues, cable issue, USB port issue...
