i made the boneheaded mistake of deleting everything off my phone in twrp (3.2.1-0) and ive had little success in trying to recover it.
1. my pc will not recognize it when its plugged in, this was also an issue when it had an os on it. ive tried to install the google usb drivers as well as the hisuite drivers with no success
2. i bought a usb otg adapter so i could possibly push the new os through there but when ever i try i get 0mb when trying to select the storage in the mount section of twrp. ive also tried reformatting the usb multiple times but that didnt work either.
3. there is no connectivity while in fastboot as well as adb
I'm caught in a tight situation and don't have the means to buy a new phone if anyone could help me out i would greatly appreciate it

Powerdown your phone and boot to bootloader by pressing powerkey and holding vol- then connect to your computer you should see the Nexus 6p on your pc and. from your computer download any rom of your like,gapps,root optional and copy it to your internal storage. Then just flash.

that doesnt work either. i have all of the appropriate drivers and still nothing.
That could be your pc. Try a different port or even better another pc.

I tried to figure out how to setup adb, and in the process tried to reinstall HTCSync2.0.25.
Ever since then (it may be a coincidence though) my phone does nothing but charge when i ahve it plugged into my laptop. I tried different cords, ports and computers and still no notification telling me to mount.
Is there a setting that i touched that may have turned off mounting?
Did i somehow delete the drivers? If so, what do i need to download because clearly HTCSync2.0.25 isnt doing anything for me since i tried removing and reinstalling + rebooting several times.
Any tips?
EDIT: Ive never had any problems before and i cant remember if i had any when i first got the phone or not.. I'm on windows 7
are you using stock ROM or? does you phone play sound when it connect to the laptop?
everything is stock htc sense.
no sound is made. its like the phone doesnt exist when i plug it in. it just charges. At first i thought it was my laptop, but then i tried my other computer and it didnt work their either..
Have you tried rebooting your phone?
yes, more than once.
Rebooting hte phone with the sd card unmounted (from the phone settings). Rebooting with usb debugging enabled. rebooting with usb debugging disabled. rebooted my laptop. everything
bad data pins on the usb port on the phone?
i doubt that. it worked fine 2 days ago.
Do you have DoubleTwist installed? I tried it once and it messed up my usb mounting and media scanning.
nopei havent installed any new apps between the time where it worked, and it didnt.
one day it did, the next it didnt.
Maybe its a driver error? wehn you first plug in a new htc magic, will it see the SD card or will it not do anyhting until your have the proper drivers? because i just reinstalled htc sync for the 10th time and it still doesnt see anyhting
Can you mount via recovery?
If yes then it's not hardware, cable or your usb port. Likely rom or app related.
If not then it's hardware, cable or your usb port.
well i dont know how to mount via usb, but the screen says fastboot usb when i plug it in.
Nothing comes up on the computer..

What kind of recovery are you using?
Reboot to recovery and mount the sdcard from there.
Plug it into your computer.
Does a removable disk show up?
Try a different sdcard
Try a different usb cable
Try a different computer even!
If all three fail then it's probably your phone (hardware).
Try to mount via recovery (sdcard in the phone, rebooted to recovery and depending on your recovery version... in this example I'll use Clockwork Recovery go to Partitions Menu > mount USB storage.)
If successful then it's rom related.
If fail then hardware (sdcard, phone hardware, computer hardware, usb cable) related
It's not difficult to troubleshoot. We just need to eliminate possible problems to pinpoint whether it's your sdcard, phone, usb cable or computer.
Thanks forhelping me. I appreciate it.
But I don't know how to mount via bootmenu. Il try a different sd card when I get home.
Also I got the stock recovery. Nothing had ben changed
Alright i just put in another sd card and still nothing. would formatting to factory settings help?
But before i do that, is there an app that backs up all my data and then restores it?

Uhhh.... yeah. There are several apps on the Market that will back up your data and restore it. Mybackup Pro ($$$) and Titanium Backup (Free) are the most popular.
But I would suggest installing a custom recovery first.
Try clockwork (use my signature) by downloading Rom Manager.
As long as you have root, (you do have root right?) then you can easily install a custom recovery.
Honestly though, it sounds like a problem with your computer or cable. If you can access the sdcard from your phone then it doesn't sounds like an issue with the card.
yea i guess its a problem with my phone then. I just did a factory reset and still nothing. I tried different cords on different computers so its unlikely that they're all broken..
And no i dont ahve root. Thats why i needed to connect, i was trying to root my phone!

Yup. It sounds like an issue with the usb port on your phone then.
It seems like it's not recognizing the cable when it's plugged in to switch to enable usb mounting.
but how could this happen so randomly? i had it plugged in and no problems, then when i went to replug it in a minute later nothing happened.
It's not a driver problem?
My computer gave em a popup once saying the device malfunctioned or something

It could be a driver, but if you tried a different computer then it's like you said... it's unlikely that all your computers are having the issue.
Just for the hell of it, uninstall the drivers, plug the phone in and try mounting it.
We just need removable storage and that doesn't take any special drivers at all.
yea thats what i tried yesterday, which still didnt work
i'm on hold with HTC now.. i'll see what they say. it's still under warranty
I cant believe this randomly happened.
I need some help guys.
My Nexus 7 all of a sudden stopped sending data through usb OTG and i tried to erase cache through TRWP but ended up deleting the OS. Now I am stuck with a device with no OS. I cannot mount the USB for my computer to recognise it so that I can restore it. I tried ADB sideload but it doesnt load and gets stuck on starting...
If I click on Mount, I cannot click on the USB-OTG box. My computer does have the correct drivers for the USB as it used to work on it before but since the OTG stopped responding to data I am now stuck and cannot push a restore image to the device.
Any help would really be appreciated.
Many thanks.
I've tried almost everything I can think off. I tried different OTG cables, different computers. None of the computers even detect a device as plugged in. Whether I boot into bootloader or recovery I just cannot get the PC to even acknowledge the fact that something is plugged in. As a result I am just not able to flash it at all. I tried NRT with the soft-brick option but that fails too because it says no adb connectivity.
any help please?
**UPDATE I have unbricked my phone and the whole time I thought it was a software issue on my phone but it was a cable, I guess my cable got broken when I bricked my phone and I thought it was a software issue but it was not the whole time**
I have a bricked device and I would appreciate your help and I have tried EVERYTHING!!
here is how my oneplus 2 got bricked, I was on stock oxygen os 3.0 and rooted and I had twrp recovery 3.0.
So I did a full wipe on my device and when I was flashing the resurrection remix rom in twrp it said "Error 7" so then I reboot my phone and I was in a bootloop with no os.
I went back to twrp and flash the rom again and it not work. So then I tryed to transfer a file through my computer to my device and twrp was not recognizing it and tryed adb sideload and same thing and even in cmd I
typed "adb devices" and it not recognize it and I have the drivers installed, the 15 second 1click adb and fastboot.
And then I went to fastboot mode and then I tried first aid kit and the qualcomm mega unbrick guide and all the methods and still my oneplus 2 is not being recognized by PC and I am using the official oneplus 2 usb type c cable.
I have tried 2 windows 10 PC and I turned driver signniture enforcement off for the qualcomm drivers and nothing in device manager
I tried 1 Windows 7 PC and same thing and nothing in device manager
And I tried a Linux Mint virtual machine and I typed adb devices and fastboot device in the terminal and it was not recognizing it even though I installed the packages
So do you think the problem might be the cable? because it is the official one. But my device charges through the cable to and the cable was working before my phone got bricked. Or is it a driver problem? What do you guys think and please help and I will really appreciate it and thank you.

If your recovery mode is TWRP.. Then goto Mount -> Data
Then your computer will show your oneplus 2.
If still its not showing then update Driver Software of phone in device manager.

I tried both mount data on and off and still no luck, I have mtp enabled in twrp. I also checked device manager and there is nothing showing up. But twrp says that my phone is charging when my phone is connected to pc. I think the problem is probably the cable because the usb end of the cable looks sort of damaged, And I tried a Type-C OTG and put a usb on that and TWRP was not recognizing it

Holy crap the cable was the problem the whole time!!! I just went to the store and bought A new 3rd party USB-C cable and I plug it in to my pc and phone and immediately the pc installed drivers and now I could transfer files to TWRP from my PC!! It was a really hot sunny day today and I walked to the store which took 30 minutes and both ways 1 hour. I am so tired right now from the walk but it was worth it since my phone will be brought to life!! I am so happy right now!!!

Hey guys,
Earlier today I wiped my phone while trying to update the system, but when I tried to install the update it failed. That means that I'm now sitting without an OS on my phone, only able to access TWRP Recovery and Fastboot. I've successfully installed adb drivers and all of that, but when connecting the phone to a computer ADB doesn't find any devices and device manager only sees it as an unknown USB device (Device Descriptor Request Failed). I have been seaching for a couple of hours now and have not been able to find anything that works, so I'm hoping that you guys can help.

When I try to update the driver, as it says in step A-7, the only unknown device is the unknown usb device and when I try to update that one with the qc folder, it just says that Windows have determined that it is up to date?

Have you tried connecting to PC while in TWRP recovery ? You should be able to access internal storage using mtp. Then you can copy another rom & flash it.
I have tried connecting to Windows 8.1 on a Macbook Pro while in TWRP Recovery, and that's where it said it was an unknown USB device.

Lets try installing the drivers again. If this doesn't work, then it should be a cable issue OR usb port issue. Try this on another pc.
1. Download Oneplus2 USB drivers -> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347833370
2. Before installing the drivers, Disable Driver Signature Enforcement. -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM1MN8QZhnk
3. Install the drivers & Restart.
4. Now try either connecting to pc while in TWRP or fastboot.
you can flash factory image through fastboot

Maybe this is a bit annoying but the best solution is to buy another cable since a few weeks ago I had the same problem, bought a new cable and the problem was solved. Hope this helps
Then flash the OS through TWRP using the advanced tool that allows you to sideload files using adb.

How to enter mtp on recovery/fastboot?
I've done the same thing in the past (erase everything) , the solution that worked for me is this:
1.Always have a twrp back up on a usb stick.
2.Buy a cheap usb 2 type c to usb adaptor.
3.Enter twrp and restore the back up.
This way you do not need a pc/drivers etc.
I hope it helps.

Looks like you haven't installed oneplus usb drivers. Install the drivers & try again.
Drivers -> http://www.technobuzz.net/oneplus-2-usb-drivers/
Tried miui 12 and after flashing rom the twrp is gone I tried to reflash it the same way I did first but sadly when I'm on fastboot PC can't detect it. also tried it with other softwares but same result. Device is fine and responds when open but not in fastboot mode. Currently running miui 11 .0.6 China stable. Stucked. Also all drivers are updated
Same here.
I accidentally flashed china stable 11.0.4 zip rom on my global device through twrp and upon booting up twrp was gone and when i plug in usb the pc doesn't detect anything. In order to make pc detect the phone via usb cable i have to reboot phone while plugging usb to laptop that way file transfer option shows up in laptop and adb works but fastboot doesn't work i can force boot to fastboot through adb but upon booting to fastboot the pc stucks at waiting for device. All the drivers are installed
Currently on china stable 11.0.6
Same issue indeed
That's exactly what's happening right now. I hope someone can help us
Quote me if u find any luck.
Same issues
That happens me sometimes. I only reboot the device into fastboot again, reboot the computer, and that it. This may change depending on your computer CPU, mine is AMD. And ussually I have to use a 2.0 USB or if it still does not work a USB 2.0 hub. I know the hub thing is strange but it worked for me when my pc does not detect the phone in fastboot. Hope it helps .
With my PC I have to open device manager, look for the device, usually has a yellow sign next to it. Right click on the device name, click update driver, click browse my computer for driver software, click let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer and pick mtp USB device. Then I read it. I hope this helps.

I use a usb hub that is very old i guess, as it uses MiniUSB. By the way with multiple computer it should work, your error is very strange, I never saw it. A thing that may work is trying to use fastboot on a Linux system (no, with VMs no). So if you can flash a pen drive with a Ubuntu ISO or any linux distro, boot linux,install fastboot and check if it detects your phone.

Read my 1st reply to this op
Even file transfer option doesn't show up if i connect my phone via usb to laptop.
In order to make pc show file transfer option i have to reboot phone while connecting the phone to pc so.
That way i can use adb but as soon as i boot to fastboot via cmd pc doesn't detect the fastboot mode.
Tried with 3 laptops
Issue Fixed

Dude I fixed it and I managed to flash global and maybe reflash EU when miui 12 stable arrive
Try another type c cord preferable the original one. I just change the cord and everything went fine fastboot can now be detected via "fastboot devices".
