Ok, I installed TWRP via freegee. I then proceeded to wipe my ROM, but realized too late i did not have the ROM i wanted on the phone. Any ideas on how to put a rom on it?

Go in to TWRP> Advanced> adb sideload, now (must have ADB installed and phone connected to computer) have the desired file to flash on your computers desktop and now hold the shift key and right mouse click> open command window here. Then in this command window type adb sideload rom.zip (whatever the actual name of the zip file is included .zip at the end)

TWRP install ROM from SD slot. Hell, it can even be installed via a mounted USB OTG stick. Did you try putting you ROM onn an SD card and try it?

Uninstall/reinstall them. Make sure you have ADB installed correctly too (google/youtube for this). Change USB ports on your computer perhaps? - If this is all done correectly there will be no reason it will fail unless there is a hardware issue

thats ok. go to platform-tools, adb is in there. run it, itll close. with the curser/arrow in the folder with adb, press the shift key + click right click on your mouse. thatll bring up some options. press open command window here. make sure your device is connected. you might want to type adb devices to make sure adb sees your device.

[q] SOLVED: ADB ROM PUSH ERROR: DEVICE NOT FOUND

EDIT:
I was trying to reflash JB 4.3 because of storage issues but unfortunately I accidentally deleted and formatted internal and sd storage, so Im left with no OS on my Gnex but I can boot on recovery and fastboot. Also before I deleted the internal I did not enable usb debugging yet at that time. Is there a way I can flash a stock image by just using toolkit? ty
I tried pushing through fastboot mode but it says error: device not found. I only have the platform tools on my pc.
UPDATE:
Finally got the file pushed into the sd card doing via recovery. Since I am using TWRP recevery it was not too obvious how to do it unlike CWRM which I used to use. I spent more than 24 hours looking for the right solution that would work for me and funny thing was I finally got the right way to one of the first threads i looked into but just didnt pay much attention to it which was here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667929
"Boot your phone into Recovery and select the "Mounts & Storage" screen
- Plug your phone into your computer using USB Data Transfer Cable
- Ensure in Recovery that your phone shows "Unmount /sdcard/" and "Unmount /system/" (If they do not show this automatically, just press each one once respectively as pressing just toggles Mount and Unmount)
- Open Command Prompt on your computer by doing Start -> Run -> cmd
- In Command Prompt, type "cd c:\AndroidSDK\tools" replacing AndroidSDK\tools with wherever your adb and ROM are located.
- This is probably the most important part - Still in Command Prompt, type "adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip" replacing ROM with the EXACT name of the ROM file and including the .zip piece on both ends. This may take a minute or two...or four, but you will see a message in Command Prompt saying something like <12345678kb to 1234567kb>. That is just telling you that the file was pushed properly. (I did not include that message in the picture below)"

Go into your device manager if you have windows, and see if you have any errors.
If you do, you might have an exclamation mark for the device: Galaxy. You can manually install the drivers from here, point it to your toolkit, I guess, since you downloaded it already.
If he reads efrant's "android 101" -which is STICKIED ON GENERAL forum- just the first post, he'll know everything and downloaded everything he needs to know and have to interact with his device.

When I am on recovery yes theres an exclamation on samsung mtp device but in fastboot mode the samsung mtp does not appear but when I do fastboot devices there appears a device number so I thought I can do it on fastboot. thank you.

I have read that already however I was hoping to just flash a file to the sdcard if is even possible considering I have formatted both internal and sdcard. I am very new to adb so its an easier way for me. But it seems then I will ave to do it the hard way. Thanks
PS
Not sure if this has any bearing but when I accidentally formated internal and sdcard it was a fresh 4.3 install and so android debugging was not enabled. Thanks

Doesn't matter because if you reboot in bootloader you can use fastboot(if drivers are installed properly), fastboot always works, you don't need to enable anything for it.

no, there's no ADB interface on FASTBOOT interface. You'll never be able to push anything through ADB in FASTBOOT interface. Please read the thread i talked about earlier, and this one too -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895 - Just the first post of each will do.

[Q] Kindle Fire BRICKED (Stuck On Kindle Logo) No Susses in CMD

Hello, I Have a Kindle Fire 1st Gen. I Had CM 10.1 on it. I was attempting to put AOSP back on it for My Wife.

So This Screwed me "Bricked" Message comes up in TWRP when rebooting, says ( NO OS ) . I have Tried Kindle unbrick utility with no success when clicking on "Stuck at Logo" in utility I get this Error ...> PIC Attatched!>
I then Tried Using android-sdk ( I have went in and edited the files that need to be edited in program files/android...> File_android_winusb as well as in .android folder in the appdata location) Along with CMD & I get a Error So far into the process of Resetting Kindle OS. Pic Attatched as well. It Seems Like I have something missing ?!?!?
I somewhat Suck at CMD, I don't have much experience with it, so Please go slow on me,when Giving advise....

My Kindle is a 1st Gen. I'm not sure If I understand what You are talking about when You say "send Commands/devices" If Your talking about in CMD I Get all the way to Seeing my Device Serial Number for Kindle. The when I type "adb shell" I get a error saying (Failed: No such file or directory <2> - ) You can see this in the screen shot I attached to this thread..
Sorry, I looked at what forum this was in and got a little confused...silly me :silly:
Anyway, back on track...
You should not be receiving that error in TWRP. If you are, then something is seriously wrong with it and probably needs to be reinstalled. Other than that, I'm having trouble seeing where the problem is. (the pic shows that you're not in recovery, btw)
You clearly have access to adb, so...why aren't you using 'adb push' to transfer a new ROM to your sdcard to flash in recovery?

I have no idea what you're saying.
All you need to do is, boot into recovery (TWRP), use adb to "push" a ROM to your sdcard (adb push...), then install the ROM in recovery.

Try to understand what you're being told. I'm not saying anything about mounting your sdcard to transfer files to it so get that idea out of your head for a moment.
You need to boot into recovery and use the command 'adb push' to transfer a ROM to your sdcard, then flash it in recovery.

I am attempting to understand what u are saying But I'm thinking ur not giving full step after step instructions OR this Version I have (v2.6.0.0) differs from Yours, Because there is No such OPTION as ADB PUSH..... I have ADB sideload (under Advanced Tab) which only wipes Cashe.. I've looked in every single area in TWRP and see nothing of anything You are talking about, other than "MOUNT" obviously.

You don't need Linux to run adb commands *face palm* While I am a linux enthusiast, all he's trying to say is boot into twrp, plug kindle into your PC, and open a command prompt, CD into the directory of adb and run "adb push pathtofile /sdcard/filename" this should push it to the kindle, though their might be something else u need for in prior to this I'm not sure, soupemagnet will probably post back if there is. BTW I don't know if u actually meant u were going to install Linux, but if you don't plan on using it after this or anything in the case u do decide to still use it for this, u don't need to install it, distros like Ubuntu let you boot into a full os from the CD so u don't need to install it.

Need help with restoring my Note 2

I was doing a factory reset on my Rogers Note 2, and I accidentally wiped the internal storage. So my phone now just stays at the Samsung logo, I have TWRP 2.6.3 I believe, and it says I have no OS installed. So im trying to copy a Rom (zip format) to my phone to install. I figured this would solve my problem, but my computer won't read my phone, it install as an adb device, but doesn't show up in my computer. So I installed the Samsung Galaxy Toolkit, latest version, went through the setup and installed the drivers. When I try to push files to my phone, it says it is waiting for USB debugging to be enabled. I have no idea how to use this, as I've only seen this option in the Android itself. Could anyone help me out on how to copy over a file to my phone so I can reinstall it and get my phone working again, it would be greatly appreciated

Do you have an external sdcard in the phone? If so can you take it out and put into an sdcard reader and plug it int your PC. Then it will show up as a Drive.
If not.....
Do you have just adb.exe by itself ? No?
Download here ... http://androidarea51.com/downloads/adb.zip
Unzip to a directory where you can find it/ Like c:\adb
Reboot your phone into TWRP recovery. Put in down, do not touch it.
Go to a command prompt, cd c:\adb (or wherever you unzipped adb.zip)
type adb push whatevertheromnameis.zip /sdcard/romname.zip
Pick up phone, click install and choose file to install from sdcard
Should work fine.

Thanks for your help, I have another question, could you point me in the right direction on how to upgrade my note 2 to 4.3?

Go to sammobile.com. create an account it's free. 4.3 is available. Click on firmwares and it guide you thru it. By choosing phone model
