I recently tried to flash the android revolution rom on my M8 and now I can't get past the boot screen. I tried everything.
I can access recovery mode but I don't have any other roms that I can flash. I can't use adb to push files to my device. The only thing I can use is fastboot. Everytime I try to use adb it doesn't recognize my device but fastboot does. Please help. Thank you!
Go into recovery and adb push a ROM to your phone.
Adb will only work when you're booted or in recovery
Put a custom firmware and gapps to your sdcard and flash them through recovery, just to get you started.

You can push them through adb commands, but why you can't remove the sdcard?

Do you even know that you have slot for external sd card? It's on right side above volume buttons.

I did not know that So I just put a custom rom on a sd card and put it in my verizon m8 then flash the rom?
Yes, it's the same as flashing from internal sd.

Also make sure you flash a ROM compatible with the Verizon variant! That might be your problem

Did you ever enable encryption? Maybe try a common password? If not then you're going to have to wipe you device

Hello all,
Since today i can't mount my SD card with my recovery. Is there a way to flash a new recovery without ADB ? I have tried 3 different SD cards. Ah, and my ROM won't boot. And i can't find the drivers for Android Flasher. So i am a little bit lost... Thanks in advance for your answers!
Ok i successfuly flashed a new recovery, and now i can mount my SD card. But now (after cleaning data/cache/davilk, and flashing a ROM) i have a black screen after HTC logo.

USB brick maybe? Did you flash 4ext recovery? If so you can use the usb unbrick feature under the tools section.

Yes, you can flash that rom.
If your PC cannot see your M8 your out of luck with ADB. But just download the rom zip to a microSD, insert it, boot to TWRP and flash it. The microSD has to be fat32 for TWRP to read it.

Hi you really helped me a lot, I have the zip in /data/media/0/ path and whenever I want to install it it says failed.

/data/media/0? Isn't that internal SD? How did you get it there?
You should be able to flash it from the microSD by navigating to it under the Install menu in TWRP.
Mhhh, can you mount/unmount system and data in TWRP?

yes it is the internal, shouldn't it be there? I found the file there by following the tutorial about ADB that you sent me. Can I just install it from the microSD?

My friend, thank you a lot, I flashed it I didnt uncheck the squarre thing so because of that I failed all the time. Thank you very much. God help you.
So long story short I attempted to update my GS3 to the official ota 4.4.2 and it installed 100% but now will not boot past the AT&T logo. It revolves about three times then freezes. I am still able to get into recovery/download mode and I was wondering how I can either get it to fully boot or install some other rom? Pretty noobish at this have only rooted twice and installed CM via the installer. Any help would be appreciated!
Try a factory reset in recovery to see if that helps.

You might have to try with Kies if you wanna keep the official.
I'm not sure if there is a flashable zip of 4.4.4 yet.

Thanks but im not 100% sure what to do. Can I flash cwm via odin then flash the rom? Because my gs3 is recognized by my computer but im not able to access it like a hard drive to drag the files in.
Edit: If I had an external sd card could I load cwm and say cm11 from there?

Yep, you could use an external SD to flash CM. You'll have to flash cwm or twrp with Odin if you don't already have it.

Oh my brother, what have you done now? :laugh:
When you restored your AquariOS, did you only restore data I hope?
Then you fastbooted the factory image correct? If so, did you fastboot it to both slots?

Did you take all the image files out of the large secondary zip file you find within the factory image file and put them individually in the platform-tools folder. Don't freak my friend, that won't help at all.

Gotchya. Ok, everything looks right. Try running it again. I've read people have had to run the script a few times to get it to work. If not, try another cable or port.

Hey, I just unlocked my bootloader after waiting for the 7 days today I wanted to install the MIUI EU, and i follow the steps that they have on their website, installed and boot into recovery mode TWRP format data, and install the ROM that i downloaded, after that the wipe on the cache. When i rebooted my phone he didn't boot and was stuck on POCO screen. After 1 hour it was stuck on that, I decided to try and flash stock firmware with miflash tool, did the steps and after 604 seconds it shows success on the result but it doesn't boot the same thing stuck on POCO screen.
You need to Format data. Not cache.
Then the phone will boot up just fine.
Go, do it again.
Try to flash it using miflash again.
Then Boot TWRP, then flash it again + ( FORMAT DATA)

otg? sorry, I'm kinda new to this situation. I've flashed many custom ROMs before but have never had an issue. Yes, my phone can boot into Fastboot without a problem.

I had the same issue before. Just reflash the stock (be aware, don't select "Wipe data and lock")
When the phone boots up. Flash twrp or just boot it. Then flash Xiaomi EU then FORMAT DATA.
Everything will be just fine.

You're welcome.
As you wish, just try, at least to unlock bootloader since you're still fresh. As to make sure that it can be unlocked.

I will think later this day about installing a custom ROM. but I don't hate miui as much as people usually hate, I find some things extremely useful I just don't like some UI esthetics i prefer the minimalist look of pure android. But some things like the cloning apps are very handy to me. Some bugs that are present atm on custom ROMs for this device like the double-tap to wake up are very negative to me because I have always used that feature since 2014 and I'm extremely used to it.
