I'm trying to install CyanogenMod on Nexus 4 and so far I had done this:
- installed google driver;
- enabled developer options on my phone;
- enabled debugging by USB;
- unlocked my device using ADB;
- installed CyanogenMod Recovery;

PS C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools> .\fastboot flash recovery .\cm-13.0-20160510-NIGHTLY-mako- recovery.img
  • started bootloader;

Then I get the following error trying to push the file to the devuce:

PS C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools> .\fastboot devices 01cf8682d9c98ac0 fastboot PS C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools> .\adb push cm-13.0-20160510-NIGHTLY-mako.zip /sdcard error: device '(null)' not found

I followed CyanogenMod instructions step-by-step, including troubleshooting section, but I keep getting this error.

  • adb is not the same as fastboot. Thus, if adbd is not running on the device, adb can't find it. The same applies to fastboot. Commented May 10, 2016 at 13:08
  • You cannot use ADB when you are at the bootloader, you would need to push the files to the device using ADB when in recovery. Commented May 10, 2016 at 13:16

Reset to default

Update: This works from Recovery mode:
- Full factory reset
and then:
- Apply Update -> From ADB 

.\adb sideload cm-13.0-20160510-NIGHTLY-mako.zip
