Hi,
I would like some help, if anybody has some minutes to reply It would be great
I updated my phone with KitKat and when I finished it didn't want to boot in. It took me back to CWM. Well I format the SD and the phone too. So now if I turn it on it stops at the Google logo at the begining. I have an adb sideload menu in CWM. MY question is that how can I put any zip files on my phone e.g. android 4.3 becouse my notebook doesn't see anymore my phone. Is there any way to push up a zip file on it?
Thank you

First I would recommend plugging in your Galaxy Nexus to your computer and when it shows up in Device Manager, install the attached Google USB Drivers. After you install the drivers your phone should hopefully be recognized, and you can then push another ROM .zip file to your device. Let me know if you still have questions.
Ugh, totally my fault for not thinking this through.
Had downloaded the Paranoid Android ROM, a newer version from what I had, as I had installed it incorrectly.
So I thought, no worries, I'll just reinstall the ROM.
Booted into recovery mode, did a full wipe and then tried to install the new rom, only I couldn't find it anywhere...
Thinking I'll restart the phone and figure it out from there, but of course it doesn't go past the loading screen.
I can boot into download mode, but on my PC if I boot Odin, it doesn't recognize the phone and I get no yellow colour.
Pretty sure my internal SD card still has one or two custom roms on it, but without booting into recovery mode, I can't do much.
Odin doesn't recognize my phone. I installed the drivers from the samsung website, but it is not reading the phone in download mode.
Now I am unsure if there's another driver I need to install, i.e. a USB driver, seeing as this is a brand new pc, but other than that, I'm stuck.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!
Download galaxy s3 toolkit from original android development section,install it and agree when asked to install drivers , reboot Pc and cross fingers for your Pc to detect your phone in download mode then just flash stock ROM
Sent from the grey stuff inside my skull
If you have a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP), you can use an OTG cable to connect a USB stick to your phone (which will be discovered by CWM, haven't tried TWRP) and install a new ROM with gapps from it...
Of course if you want to install stock, you have to stick with Odin.
Hope it helps
Ok, so this was my first attempt at trying to root and flash a device, and somewhere along the way, I screwed up. I installed TWRP on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi only tablet (GT-P7510 32GB) via Odin, and rooted the device with the SuperUser and everything was gravy. Then, I tried to flash CM onto the device, and something went wrong. Bad install file or something along those lines.
OK, I'll just wipe it off and try again, went into TWRP "Wipe", and did all of the wipes. Which is where I went wrong. I did ALL of the wipes. So now the only thing still on the tablet is TWRP. Luckily I can still boot into that, but that's it.
So, this is where the real problem comes in. I need to be able to load the ZIP onto the device root so I can use TWRP to install it, but for the life of me I cannot get my Windows 7 Laptop to recognize the device. I have installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled the Samsung drivers at least 4 times, being extra patient to reset both the computer and tablet after each attempt, i've tried turning the computer on with it already plugged in, i've tried waiting to plug it in until after the computer is fully booted, everything.
The USB port on the computer recognizes other USB flash drives just fine, i'm using the OEM cable, and everything worked fine to connect the tablet with Odin before I did that wipe, so we can rule out the cable being bad.
I've been reading a lot of forum posts both on XDA and elsewhere and I've seen people talking about needing to uncheck the USB debugging in Settings, but obviously I can't get there, because there's no OS. This must have been unchecked before the wipe though, because it connected fine then.
Help
Interesting addendum.
I actually CAN access the device with Odin. It will allow me to reflash the TWRP .tar file onto the device. Not sure if that's helpful at all though.
Figured it out, questions answered
Hey so I recently tried to install a custom ROM (Nougat 7. 1. 1) in my galaxy s6, but I ended up wiping all the data from my phone including the OS. Now when I try to connect my otg with a memory card reader (which is working perfectly on my pc) it doesn't appear anywhere. And when I tried to install the ROM and gapps from my pc via ADB, my phone doesn't show up in device manager I tried show hidden devices but it didn't help..
So can anybody help me in fixing this issue

Use TWRP 3 to transfar files from pc to phone
But it has to be TWRP 3.X.X, just boot into the recovery and connect the phone to pc with a normal cable
If you don't have the TWRP, flash it with Odin.

I have TWRP recovery installed into my phone but whenever I try to connect my phone to my laptop it only charges it does not show up as an external device. My pc doesn't recognize my phone. I am using an original cable which worked before for transferring files

Ummm, you will have to use a work around, you can copy the rom and gapps to Micro SDcard and put it in your phone and install the rom with it by selecting "select storage" and choose external sdcard.
Or if you have TWRP 3.0.2.1 you will find an option in "select storage" to select from OTG.

Are you sure it's the correct rom for your device? Error 7 means usually rom & device do not match, it's a safety mechanism to avoid you bricking the phone..
In rear cases it can also happen due to outdated recovery, but I bet on the first reason..
By the way, go to your device specific forum, lots of people owning the same device are there..

No it was not the problem of a wrong ROM. It was something in the scripts. I have installed the ROM along with gapps.
But I have a new problem now. I am unable to operate my phone with the touchscreen. But it's working with a mouse perfectly. Also it is not recognizing my SIM card and the camera is also not working
Lineage 14.1
Nougat 7.1.1

Hi all,
I'm trying to get my old s2 to a point where I can think about flashing one of the Lineage roms 14 or 15.
First hurdle is that i need to replace the current custom recovery (Philz 3) with TWRP. Ordinarily I'd do this through Odin and not think twice about it. However I cannot get my windows machine to recognise the USB connection to the phone. It will charge and nothing more. The phone obviously used to connect, many years ago.
Device : Samsung Galaxy sII - GT-I9100 (has root)
Recovery : Philz Touch 3 - CWM Base 6.0.1.8
OS : Jellybean 4.1.2 (stock unbranded)
PCs : Win 7 ent x64, Win 10 ent x64, Win 10 ent x64
I've scoured the forums here and have tried the following to get the usb connection working.
Tried 4 different usb cables across 3 different PCs
Tried with USB debugging on and off
The phone does not have any options to choose the type of USB connection I want (MTP etc)
Tried installing kies and drivers
Tried installing device drivers only (specifically for this model)
Tried installing device drivers (whole package)
Tried switching engineering mode to modem and back to usb through *#7284#
Tried a recovery flashable zip version of twrp 3.0, through Philz (it fails)
Tried cleaning the contacts on the port on the device.
Have stripped out the old device usb port and installed a new one.
Have tried to install mobile odin but it fails to get update (addon package from xda, and will not run)
Have tried various timings of plugging usb into the phone when entering download mode
Have factory reset the phone from OS
Have factory reset the phone from recovery
Have tried clearing the various caches and wiping pretty much everything.
The phone reliably boots into OS, recovery and download modes.
Other android and samsung devices are seen by all the PCs I've tested on
At no point are the PC and the s2 connected
Is there another way to flash twrp to recovery?
Is there another way to flash a complete stock rom including stock recovery, to start from scratch.
What else can I try? Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers P

A safe method to start with. Place twrp-3.0.3-0-i9100-signed.zip and the recovery.img extracted from it and lineage-11-20191223-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.zip in the SD memory.
Run the current recovery and select the recovery zip or img installation from the external SD memory.
I don't know PhilZ Touch so I don't know where to choose zip or img.
Restart recovery mode and make a backup in TWRP to the external SD memory.
Only then wipe the Cache, System, Data, Dalvik and install ROM.
Many thanks. I'm gonna give that a go this evening. Will report back on how it goes.
I feel like my usb connection woes will disappear if i get a new rom on it.
Cheers.
Manages to update to Philz to version 6 ...I after which I did get the lineage Rom onto the phone but it booted once then went into a boot loop.
I gave up
Thanks for those who helped anyway though.
