Sorry if this is the wrong thread.
The run down. My phone is bootloader unlocked rooted etc. already flashed xenon rom and everything was great. (Just got the device today)
Ok so here's the trouble i'm in. I decided I wanted to try another rom so i boot into clockwork recovery wipe system,data cache etc. suddenly all my files dont exist.
I have no back up file (my stupidity). I can still get into fastboot, clockwork etc, but it does not recognize a sd card on the device.
i tried loading up Samnsung Toolkit v7.8.0 and all i see in the top menu is
fastboot-toolkit is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file
adb-toolkit is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file
this is what worries me. I plug the device in on my windows computer it recognizes something no sd card.. currently downloading factory images
BUT WHAT DO I DO?!!!! pls help and pls do not flame me etc. All I'm asking is simple help thanks

A. Do not use toolkit. Unless you know how to solve things manually
B. Google how to setup adb and fastboot.
C. "adb push NAME_OF_ROM.zip /sdcard/" while on custom recovery
D. Flash that ROM

There is no sdcard on the gNex. As long as data is mounted you should be good

1st of all, Gnex doesn't have SDcard, therefore, you can't mount it. You can only use adb to push and pull files on recovery
2nd, are you sure you got proper driver? Do you actually have the ROM.zip on the same directory as adb.exe? If not, you need to do that. Also, if /sdcard/ doesn't work, /storage/sdcard0/ should work. It's a same directory. Just in different name for some reason.

I downloaded a ROM for the wrong nexus phone (there's so damn many I forgot to check carefully) and I've already wiped system and moved my nandroid backups to my computer because I wanted to wipe the SD card.
Is there any way to get into the phone's internal storage from recovery and load a new ROM manually?
With my older phones I would just pull the micro SD card and put the ROM on it from my PC, this doesn't seem to be possible with the nexus.
EDIT: I also have the Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit v1.3. I think I can load a ROM using this right?
Thanks!

I got:

in my device manager I have:

I assume typing "adb devices" brings nothing up?
Are you in the fastboot menu?
Do you have the drivers installed (I'd assume so, if you're rooted)

Okay got into the phone when I used recovery instead of boodloader to talk to it with ADB. I'm pushing the ROM but CWM doesn't see the ZIP after it has been pushed when I choose 'install ZIP from sdcard'
Final edit: Couldn't find the ROM when I pushed it using ADB. I think I was using the command wrong because the file never showed on the SDCARD after pushing it. So what I did was push it as 'update.zip' and then used CWM's 'load update.zip' from SDCARD function and got Cyanogenmod installed and everything is gravy again.

this didn't work for me. adb devices shows serial number recovery (that's the only thing I can boot my phone to)
when I adb push update /scard it eventually says it successfully did so with xxxxx amounts of data.
When I apply update.zip card from CWM menu it tells me can't open /sdcard/update.zip (no such file or directory)
I also renamed latest cm.zip and pushed it to /sdcard/0/Download - even when it says OK I can't find that file in that directory.
Am I royally screwed?

Sorry but this is really really old. You should try doing a flash-back-to-stock if you can using the Nexus Root Toolkit.
I haven't had my Galaxy Nexus for well over a year.

Hi guys
I would like to know how i can push a zip ROM through cwm recovery to my Gnex because i have a problem, my phone dont want boot and only i can see fastboot mode and Recovery mode and i dont have a nand backup or a ROM file on my SD memory to flash and fix this problem, someone can help me with this??
Adb push nameofROM.zip /sdcard/ nameofROM.zip
I also believe you have to go to Mounts and Storage and unmount system in CWM beforehand.
Someone double check me but I wouldn't remember it fully unless I had to do it again.
Had to learn how to do this myself recently.

Connect your phone to your pc,open CMD and use the code below:
adb push {file path} /sdcard/｛file path｝
Use my guide.
Particularly post 1 to set ADB up if you haven't.
And post 3 (panic section) for this exact scenario.
Had to do this recently.
In mounts and storage mount /data
Then
Adb push ROM.zip /data/media
Then unmount and it should be there on the root of your "sdcard"

If I can get step by step help I will def buy someone a beer or two or three. Thanks
If you have a rom zip on your sdcard just boot into recovery, wipe and flash a new rom. If you don't then go into recovery, mount sdcard to your computer and move a zip onto your sd and then flash.

Connect your phone to your computer, boot into CWM recovery, and use ADB to push a ROM.zip, GAPPS, and whatever else you need to flash to your phone. You can then do a data wipe in CWM and flash the ROM.
If you don't know how to use ADB, download the package I've attached to this post. Unzip it to your home directory and drop any files you need to push into that file as well. Open up Terminal, type "cd" (no quotes) and drag that unzipped Mac_ADB_Fastboot folder into the terminal and hit return. It'll take you to that directory.
First, make sure the computer recognized the device by typing:
Code:
./adb devices
and hitting return.
If it detects, then type this into the Terminal, of course substituting any file you need (GAPPS, etc.) where "ROM.zip" is:
Code:
./adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/

adb is a platform tool in android sdk, and can use on mac surely.
you can get one sent by martonikaj.
firstly you have to try to mount your sdcard in the cwm recovery. if it done, you can use adb push send file to sdcard.

You could always just find someone with a PC that will let you use it for 15 minutes, download the rom, move to your phone, boot into recovery, flash and enjoy. I always have 2 or 3 rom zips on my phone just for that reason.

i was trying to install a rom,and in the CWM i formated the sd along with the others by mistake,now i can't reach the rom i transfered and the phones won't boot for sure
i tried to flash the google stock with gnex toolkit (using step 9) and i downloaded the file but it fails and what is shown to me is what you have in the attached image,it gets stuck at the "sending radio"
what should i do,i really need urgent help here
please just know that i'm a total noob so please tell me what to do step by step so i could understand
What Nexus do u have gsm or verizon? If it's Verizon you picked the wrong version and it's flashing a gsm radio. If it's gsm it could be a bad download or you picked the wrong version not too sure about that I have a Verizon nexus

it's a GSM,and i chose the right version stated in the toolkit thread and the one i installed the drivers and unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phones with it
is there a way to transfer a file in the CWM mode? can i transfer the rom in this mode?
You should do these commands in fastboot instead of using a toolkit.
Here is a step by step guide how to get back to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
Edit: to answer you question about pushing a file in recovery, you can. You must use adb. The command is adb push nameoffile.zip /data/media

i installed the sdk and found the adb.exe in the platform tools folder now what should i do?!! should i transfer the rom .zip to the same directory of the adb.exe?
Put the zip in the same folder and hold shift and right click select open command prompt here. Then adb push the zip onto your phone.
You got clockwork recovery? If so, you need cwm flashable version of radio, boot loader and ROM

seriously thanks for the help,i am totally new to this and felt like i killed my phones with my inexperienced self
i was a driver problem and i used the toolkit to uninstall and install again the driver and then used the toolkit to push the files but it said something like adb is already in root access or whatever so i headed to the adb.exe and it did it!!!!

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.
