Ayyyy! Good lookin' out Max. Six years later and this helped me save a long discarded transformer prime.

[prathamesh]

You just save my day. Used on Oneplus and No data is lost. Happy to get back all of my data. A big Thanks!!!

[Magicmushroomboi]

if u find your self with an older version that does not support recovery adb, go to advanced (in twrp) and click sideload, then instead of using "adb push" use "adb sideload" and the file name after it, this will directly install the zip file on the phone. done

[Guilhermearins]

Thanks, saved my phone, 12hours learning how to do my phone back, and i got this with your help

[kravets_coding]

Nice! Clear and working guide. Its the first one I watched with Max Lee, but definitely not the last one.

[EddyPrms]

Over the past 3 years I've had to do this about 4 to 5 times since I'm always using a custom ROM and I get bootloop issues, I always keep coming back to this video. You're a life saver Max!

[Inovar_com_Principios]

Cara! passei 3 dias tentando e rodando pela net pra recuperar o meu htc, E como no dia que fiz o root... Voce apareceu !! Muito obrigado Sr. Chang. oque o senhor faz é incrivel!
Grande abraço e sucesso! Pefect

If you have this "The system cannot find the path specified", just skip the "cd downloads" and "cd fastboot" part. It's only to direct the cmd to open the folder in which you put your fastboot folder.

INSTEAD
1. Open your fastboot folder, press Shift + Right click wherever on the folder and select "open command window here".
2. Make sure the files is already inside the folders
3. Inside the cmd, type: adb push filename /sdcard/.

to make the command of your filename right, only type the 1st phrase of your file and then press Tab on your keyboard (Just ike on the video). Sometime it'll appear using " ", sometimes doesn't

[rickyjackson]

Him: First thing you do is boot into twrp...
Me: Tab doesn't boot into twrp...

[khajakamran]

Man u made me learn something. I got my Zuk Z1 OS removed accidentally, somehow I got into twrp and then followed your steps which was like fresh water in a desert. But I did a small change since my device was not recognised, I choose ADB in twrp, swiped, adb devices, adb sideload and enter.

Great

How to send file to devices without sdcard? Cmd plz. Becuase gt-p7500 don'n have sdcard.

[Machomannk]

You just saved my life (at least $500 worth), I spent 4 hours watching youtube tutorials using odin and all kinds of other things to unbrick my device and you were the only one who had a video describing my exact situation with such an easy to follow tutorial. Keep up the good work!

[Marwan]

Thank you .. you saved my life :D .. actually my phone's life :P

[RobHoubeck]

After the botched Android N OTA this morning, this was the ONLY video that helped me sideload the file back onto my device. Thanks for this man! Excellent work!

[benvasse]

This is so great man! You helped me save my phone, I didn't even know I can do that. The phone has been detected as an external drive without installing any driver. Big THX

[eduardofernandez]

mine says error: closed when i try to sideload it

[AntonioSilvaToronto]

Thanks man, I was freaking out but I followed your instructions and recovered my OnePlus One!

[esbbassboosted]

Thanks Max, worked on my Galaxy Note 4 (It's only a test, I don't have a No OS problem).

[TheZammySam]

Help!
When typing the adb fastboot commando i get a serial code, so that's working.
But when I try to push my flashable .zip file, it says "error: device not found". I have a 64gb Oneplus One and I accidentally removed my internal storage, so no OS, and now I'm trying to install OxygenOS, but I encounter this problem.
Any help appreciated, I can't survive without my phone haha ;)
EDIT: Yay, I fixed it!!! My problem was that I had the wrong ADB Drivers installed haha ;)
Anyway, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! <3 Everything works great, my phone is BACK!!!

[biafrafetech]

THIS GUY IS my phone got hard bricked while i was trying to install MARSH.. custom rom, but with the help of this guy I got it all working again.... Thanks mannn...
