I'm not by my computer but shouldn't it be something like
Code:
adb shell
mount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
exit
adb push HTCMusic.apk /system/app
or push before exit I can't remember off the top of my head.

You posted it right, exit shell first, then use ADB push.
Code:
adb shell
mount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
exit
adb push HTCMusic.apk /system/app

Ok now Im getting failed-read only file system. Can someone please help me push apps through adb it was so easy with my hero but its not working with this Evo for some reason.

Im even trying to pull apps(to delete them) and Im getting "Directory not empty" what am I doing wrong in adb? I can use the same sdk that I used for the hero correct?

I am getting the same out of memory messages when trying to push to the device. I can pull just fine.

Make sure you don't have your SD Card enabled as a removable device. Make sure it says "Charging Only", under the notification pull down.

I am having some of the same issues with pushing bootanimation.zip onto my FroYo'd Aria with SDK 08 for 2.2 platform. I get Directory Not Empty. What am I not doing? I've tried 4 different methods I've read for this.

Help using ADB to push an app

Hi all, I am using a froyo rom based on richardtrips rom.
I'm trying to push a themed facebook apk. I have placed the apk in the tools folder.
This is what I did.. Boot to recovery, then open a cmd on my windows laptop. I then did the cd to go to my adb tools folder.
Then I typed
Code:
adb remount
This gave me an error saying error 0.
So I tried while the handset was booted normally. The remount was successful.
I then typed
Code:
adb push system/app/facebook.apk
This just gave me the help list with details of all the commands.
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong?

how about
adb shell mount /system
adb push C:\Facebook.apk /system/app/
adb reboot

[MOD] 3-Click QuickTempRoot TerminalMOD :/

Alright all,
I know there's another thread about "easier" method, but this is easiest for me. 3-Clicks after installation.
I was really tired of typing the same crap over and over after rebooting just to get my temproot back to do more testing/playing.
So I redeveloped this to be quicker/easier upon reboot. Mainly I altered the Term app to be have a scripted start-up on the 1st 3 launches.
I also updated the su/Superuser combo with ChainDD's latest stuff.
Here's how it works, after it's installed.

1) You run the terminal app once, wait a few seconds and it disappears.
2) You run the terminal again, wait for it to FC.
3) You run the terminal a final time and receive root.

Now on each reboot, it will be simply 3-clicks (running terminal app 3 times).
Finally ... any executable script placed in /data/local/tmp will be in the path of the new terminal mod. This makes running other scripts very easy.
Installation
Download the attached QuickTempRooter.zip and place it in a directory and unpack it.
Turn on USB debugging and install through adb ...
Here's the adb installation snippet ...
Code:
adb kill-server
adb push su /sdcard/su
adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb push rage /data/local/tmp/rage
adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/rage
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/root
adb shell 'pm uninstall com.android.term'
adb install Term.apk
Has made my life wayyy easier when playing with this phone while we wait for the real-deal!!!
Hope you enjoy!
NOTES
If you get a permission denied on the ''adb shell 'pm uninstall com.android.term' '' ... this is normal if you don't have a terminal already installed or have an alternate terminal app (using a namespace other than com.android.term.
If you have another Terminal App installed, you may want to uninstall it first, to avoid confusion.
Also, you may need to reboot after the initial installation for it to work properly!

ummmmm.....Enomther??
Did you get a G2 already?
Great to see you helping out with this

Great to see you here man! Trying this now can't wait to get themes rolling once we get permanent root!

If you didn't already have a terminal app installed that error is normal. Also you may need to reboot once after the initial installation for it to work properly.

Sorry, this is my first Android. I came from WM and I was pretty good with it.
I've searched XDA, Youtube, and web to ADB and SDK. I've downloaded it and it's installed. The only thing I don't get is when you said to
"Download the attached QuickTempRooter.zip and place it in a directory and unpack it."
You mean place the extracted files into the sd card correct? That's why the command is "adb push su /sdcard/su".

No, he means on your PC. You are running adb to push files contained in the zip to your phone.

So they go into the tools folder? Damn. I think I've in over my head here.
Like this?

If you have better terminal, you can also add the rage and root to specific keys.

At this command I'm getting told "failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Read-only file system"
adb push su /sdcard/su

Unplug then plug ur phone back in then try again also make sure u are in usb debug mode

Good work, Temp root in like 5 seconds

Quick question, ok I was able to get root for a few mins, then it went away I guess I have to have the terminal always open or ignore so my taskiller doesnt terminated it?

Don't use task killers. (IMHO)
But I tend to have to reboot every once in a while to keep root in tacked within terminal but all my apps seem to stay with su permissions until reboot (or sometimes 12 hours)

ADB

I'm trying the rage root method after reading up on all the stuff. I managed to get adb installed and connected, but i can't use adb actions.
I type in c\androidsdk\tools\adb shell
$ su
$ SUermission denied
even without su, if i try to type "adb push su /sdcard/su" it says adb permission denied.
I have kept my phone screen on as per another thread, but i do not get a prompt that asks for adb permissions. Am i missing an app or something? I do have debugging and screen awke both on.
I have placed the g2 root folder in the androidsdk\tools\ folder, both just the files and the entire folder just to be sure.
Obviously I'm new to adb, so If i'm doing something completely wrong just let me know.

as long as you're not rooted (temp or perma) you can't use "su" in adb-commands... If you tell a little more about what you're trying to push, then I can help some more

Im just trying to root the phone with rage since visionary seems unreliable.
Im trying to adb push the su/ sdcard/su as per the first line of instruction in the rage temp root guide

hehe... I used the visionary root, and it have worked good for me btw, I think you should've posted in the rage-thread instead of opening a new topic, but now it's already opened so here it goes
firstly... are you sure you're in the right folder, and have the folder "su" in there?
If so, don't go into "adb shell"... use the lines exactly as stated in the OP. adb inside an adb shell won't give the results you want... Post back if it doesn't work
$ adb push su /sdcard/su
$ adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
$ adb push rage /data/local/tmp/rage
$ adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
$ adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
$ adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*

I don't think Im using adb right then, how do I just type in "adb push ...?" If I do that, it just says that the command is not recognized internally or externally.
For example,
Adb push su/ sdcard/su
gives me that error.
I've tried to set a path directly to adb, but that didn't work, so I was manually going
AndroidSKD\tools\ Adb push su/ sdcard/su but that also didnt work.
I don't have the $ prompt without shell, is that wrong?
I'm pretty sure Im in the right folder, as androidsdk\tools\adb gives me the adb directory, just nothing else works. What exactly does SU folder mean? I have the su file in the tools folder, dont know about the su folder.

Ok, my adb stuff is in c:\tools .. so when I first open command prompt, I have to type this:
cd c:\tools
That puts me into the correct folder. If yours is in C, then you'd probably have to do this:
cd c:\androidsdk\tools
Then type:
adb devices
It should at least give you SOME sort of output, either with your device number (if it's connected, and adb is working properly), or just say devices, with no numbers (incorrectly)

You, apparently, need to read some more.
Do it exactly as written here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2
FYI you will not see the $ symbol. that just indicated the next line you have to enter in commnad prompt. Each time you see $ just mean you type that line then press enter. Wait to see a result of transfer from prompt then enter next line and so on.

This!! I'll be kind though.
Make your life easy. Unzip the contents of g2TempRoot, to your tools folder, in sdk. So, unzip the g2temproot to your desktop. Go into that folder. Copy all, and move them to c:\androidsdk\tools. Now, once that's done, go into command prompt. cd c:\androidsdk\tools. Then, do as follows, as per that link
$ adb push su /sdcard/su
$ adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
$ adb push rage /data/local/tmp/rage
$ adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
$ adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
$ adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*
(Sorry I couldn't be of more help, as I used VisionaryR12 and it worked fine for me.)

One more word of advise...
I would recommend you try temp root first.
Become used to using adb then try to get full root.
When you use temp root everything you do is temporary only.
Rebooting will reset everything back to stock so its good practice.

thanks for the help guys, but i figured it out. I just wasn't in the right directories from the get go.
Edit: Just finished the perm root! And it didn't brick.

Read .. research .. double check .. triple check .. and right before you do it .. check again. As you're doing it, go over every letter, space, and character to make sure it's as it should be.

On the subject of adb, I have it installed, but when I run adb devices to find my phone, I get "???????????? no permissions". What am I doing wrong here?

[Q] Installing DSP Manager to Oxygen

I've got a few problems getting DSP Manager to work on Oxygen.
I try and install the DSPManager.apk file and just get a tick with "Application not installed" next to it.
That's a little confusing since the tick suggests it installed - the "Application not installed" and lack of app says otherwise.
I'm running Oxygen 2.2 but I also got this error on 2.1.6.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

push it via adb (I'm gonna assume you have android-sdk)
put the .apk in your c:\ and reboot into recovery
Code:
cd c:\android-sdk/platform-tools
adb shell
mount /system
exit
adb push c:\DSPManager.apk /system/app/DSPManager.apk
