So, basically, I've done a stupid thing, I attempted to install Cyanogen, forgetting to enable USB debugging, and it didn't go too well, all I can do now is use Clockwork Recovery as there is no ROM on the phone, I'm not sure if there's anyway I can enable USB debugging and flash it via USB, with Odin, but whenever I try to flash via .zip through Clockworkmod Recovery I either get the status 7 error, or if I take steps to get rid of that the installation just aborts, any ideas on what I can do?
There is also a possiblity I installed Clockwork Recovery for the 3G edition, whereas I have the LTE edition of the phone, I'm not sure if that'll have contributed to the downfall of my smartphone adventures
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

hi,
first of all, dont worry for that. its not really a brick.
reboot your device to download mode (press vol-down, home and power buttons)
install philz_touch_5.18.2-i9195.tar.md5 - 7.08 MB via odin and restart to your phone to philz recovery. (press vol-up, home and power button, if you see samsung logo release power button)
then install cm rom and reboot. if you dont have any rom file in your storage, then copy rom zip file to your external sdcard via your pc and put external card again to your phone and reboot recovery and try install your rom from external card. this recovery is for lte variant of s4 mini.
i hope you get your phone working again and tell me if it works
I can't use Odin to detect my phone, it just doesn't show up :c
There is another solution.
first - get philz recovery zip file for lte variant and extract it. (get it here http://d-h.st/qdn) open updater-script and remove this code and save file.(that installer will not stop because your device is show him you have 3g variant but you have lte one so simply remove this code and save file to your zip)
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "serranolte"
|| getprop("ro.build.product") == "serranolte");
make zip file and copy it to your sdk folder and install it via adb sideload. (google it when you dont know how to install with sideload)
after this you should have right recovery.
then install your rom with sideload and reboot.
Yeah, that did fix it, I now however have the issue of my Wifi won't turn on and I cannot install things as it states that there isn't enough storage space available, which there is, there is also 4.62 Gb used in my Misc files and nothing is listed as even close to that size, so my phone isn't particularly better off ¬.¬ But thanks for your help
Got all of the problems sorted now, for the storage space thing, I had to remove my external SD card and just go on a formatting blitz after reinstalling Clockworkmod and the wifi required a modded kernel to be installed
Hi can someone help me, I have the same issue as Tobiscuits. The link no longer worked but I managed to get the file needed for recovery Odin doesn't see my phone so I can't recover to stock that way I'm guessing USB debugging is off I'm stuck on the Odin mode screen everytime my phone starts. I'm new to this what do I do with the recovery zip I have, it's on my pc atm

Have you installed latest Samsung drivers? Or try reinstall/update them, from Samsung website?
(in the past some people had to uninstall the Samsung sync software & it's drivers first if it had already been installed on PC, ie smartswitch/kies)
You must reboot PC between each operation above & check Samsung drivers uninstalled in program list (assuming Windows). Reboot after install as well.
Update to TWRP after fixed.

Hi thanks for replying, yes I installed Samsung usb drivers still doesn't recognise my device, I do have the same phone again and that works but that phone doesn't recognise on Odin or pc either maybe it's a cable issue or USB driver issue like you said. I'm pretty new to all this but TWRP is the recovery zip right? When I try factory reset it goes through the motions then nothing happens goes back to Odin mode automatically.i should mention I uninstalled magisk before my phone decided to not boot back up I'm guessing I uninstalled it wrong. I'll try uninstalling the Samsung drivers and reinstalling.
Hi guys,
I am having a problem getting Cyanogenmod on my sons phone. I have flashed ROMs to this phone before with no problems but it was a while back. Last night I downloaded all the needed files. I flashed the latest nightly recovery which was 8-5-2016. After rebooting I tried to flash the ROM and it failed. I suspect the file got corrupted. Now I can't seam to get Windows to recognize the phone anymore so I can add a ROM to flash. It doesn't show up as a drive. Also, when I try to flash or push files to the device I'm getting adb server outdated or device not found. Can someone please help me get this working again? My son is 13 and wants his phone lol.
Thanks,
Rocky

Try pushing the files while in twrp
Skickat från min HTC One M9 via Tapatalk
It has CyanogenMod recovery installed. When I try to push files it says adb server is out if date. My PC has Windows 10 x64. Before flashing CyanogenMod recovery when I would connect my phone to the PC I would see it's drive and could copy and paste files. Now the PC makes a sound when the phone is connected and disconnected but the drive does not show up to copy and paste a new ROM.zip.

Try rebooting to download mode by shutting down, holding volume down am power to restart. Download latest TWRP and flash when in download mode per fastboot. Reboot to bootloader, and recovery from there. If booted to TWRP mount as MTP and push Cyanogen Nightly as well as GApps to the device install both and reboot. This should work.

So I have a new oneplus 3. I rooted it, installed TWRP and flashed cyanogen mod. I couldn't receive incoming calls so I figured that should factory reset using TWRP. I messed up and deleted all files, including the internal storage. My phone has no os to boot from, no backups and now it has no roms due to the wiping. It can only boot to TWRP and fastboot. It's being recognized as "google nexus adb interface" by the device manager when booted into TWRP and connected. I just need a way to transfer the files from my pc to the phone so I can flash them. Please help me. (By the way, I'm fairly new to this whole rooting and flashing experience so please keep that in mind when providing a solution)
Try flashing with an OTG adapter and a Rom on a USB stick or google "how to use adb sideload" there are youtube tutorials for both of that, used them a few days ago
Link for adb sideload:

This has happend to me before with my old android device.
Boot up TWRP and mount the device as MTP storage and plug the phone into your computer [Make sure you have the right drivers installed] Transfer a ROM of your choice to the device and install it like any other ROM. :good:
I made a very noob mistake today. I was going to factory reset my Oneplus 3 in TWRP (recovery) and flash back to the stock rom but I accidentally checked off everything to be erased... which erased my current operating system, along with the stock rom I was going to install :crying:
Now im stuck with no OS, phone won't boot, can only get into recovery etc etc
I tried connecting it to the computer and clicking MOUNT in recovery, my PC detects it, but when I try to drag and drop the stock rom it just hangs there and the file transfer progress bar doesnt move.
What are my options ?
The phone is rooted
You can use sideload from twrp. Or you can put the zip you want to flash in a usb and flash it via otg.

Put the OOS you want to install on a flash memory and use it as OTG from TWRP
As mentioned above, sideload is the easiest way.
Simply follow the steps here:
https://twrp.me/faq/ADBSideload.html
You can transfer data from a pc in twrp so you have loads of options
Push it with ADB
Ex- "adb push (input_file_name) /sdcard/(output_file_name)"
I will try adb sideloading, i had tried that method a while back for installing a rom and had issues, i have windows 10.

Try reflashing twrp from fastboot
I had the same problem when I was trying to upgrade to OOS 4.0. The phone was stuck at bootscreen. I powered it off by holding power button for 10 seconds. I turned it on again and booted in recovery mode. Then I connected my OP3 to PC and I was able to copy the .zip file into the TWRP folder. In recovery mode I installed the latest firmware from the .zip file.
Maybe I should mention that the OS I'm using is Arch Linux. My PC instantly recognized my phone.
Hello everyone!
My oneplus3 is actually running no OS and I'm having a boot loop.
I will try to explain what happened to me with the most details I can.
Before I ****ed everything up, I think I was running OxygenOS 3.28, not really sure about it but im 100% sure it was below 4.0, and it was rooted with TWRP 3.0.2 installed.
1) Today I had a pop up saying OxygenOS 4.0.2 was available (the official one that pops on the screen on boot) "Yay so coooool Nougat!"
1.1) I downloaded it, 1.4Go, then I pressed install
1.2) TWRP showed up, I didn't know what to do and that's where I ****ed up, I set my phone "factory new" in TWRP.
1.3) Phone restarted fresh new, I thought I had 4.0.2 but naaaaah would've been too easy so the official pop up showed again, I was still 3.28 I think.
1.4) Downloaded it once more, TWRP opened again, this time i was looking for the update i just downloaded in the "install" section. I browsed for quite a while and couldn't find it.
1.5) Master ****-up here: I tried to restore a backup. Then the bootloop happened. The black screen with "Oneplus" written in white. I was able to go back in TWRP by pressing power + volume down
1.6) Tried every kind of restore unsuccessfully, and tried ADB but it wouldn't load. Also TWRP said that I was running no OS when I wanted to turn off my phone for example.
2) I downloaded 4.0.2 from one plus website on my mac, and i flashed the official recovery instead of TWRP.
2.1) Transferred the update from my mac to my PC (seems important to me) and installed ADB & everything on both PC/O+3.
2.2) so adb worked in forceboot, i've been able to flash official recovery, tried once more to wipe & everything, but clearly I have no OS now, as TWRP said.
2.3) so i had the update in a folder (not a zip, probably due to the download being done from a mac), I made it a .ZIP with winrar, but "adb sideload update.zip" crashed at 0% everytime
2.4) looked at the archive then i noticed it was first a folder "OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_039_all_1701140133_03b794d8a8b44883" then inside it i had the content like "boot.img" & everything. So i zipped it again but without that first folder because I thought it was the problem, but it kept on crashing 0%.
2.5) restarted my PC, looked on several forums, but i couldn't find any fix. Now adb can't even open update.zip anymore, it fails even before 0%.. I tried naming it .zip.zip, keeping the name "OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_039_all_1701140133_03b794d8a8b44883.zip", using a third party app to allow more RAM to the cmd app...
I've been trying hard for 4 hours but I still have a O+3 without any OS... My last idea is downloading "OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_039_all_1701140133_03b794d8a8b44883.zip" from my PC so it downloads it directly .zip unlike on my mac...
I hope I said everything, sorry for the long post but i'm desperate.. thanks for your attention,
Valentin

Thank you for answering! unfortunately i've already tried that and my problem occurs when i try to sideload the update from adb recovery... "couldn't load 'update.zip'"
I dont really know what to do now because I think my only option here is to load the OS through adb as I can't boot my phone to get the update zip inside a specified folder to load it from internal storage.
Try to install the new official TWRP version i think it is 3.0.3-0 through fastboot. Boot up TWRP, wipe every partiton and copy the update.zip onto the phone. You can copy it by connecting it normaly via USB(like you would do in OOS) and install the zip file afterwards.

install stock recovery and then try installing official OS. Or install modded twrp 3.0.2-1.28 and then try installing Freedom OS 2.3 via sideload or through internal storage.

Stop fiddling with the ROM. Download the ROM afresh directly to your Windows PC/laptop. Check the md5. Then start experimenting with the other suggestions but don't again meddle with the ROM!

I read your post again and here are a few things:
* Don't update Stock OOS via "System updates" in Settings if you are rooted and have TWRP
* Back up your data before updating, wiping or doing something with your phone.
* For the ADB error, see the FAQ #17 in the guide I provided.
Now, try this:
Flash TWRP via fastboot > boot to TWRP > connect your phone to your PC and copy the full Stock OOS v4.0.2 OTA to your phone > reboot to fastboot and flash Stock Recovery.
It didn't touch the internal storage. So, try to install from internal storage when you are in Stock Recovery.
Let me know if it worked.
