Adb - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I'm getting setup to root my buddies Evo shift. I Dloaded android sdk followed the instruction. I've opened cmd.exe when I type in a command it says it says 'adb ' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable command or batch file.
I'm trying it out on my Evo first just to get familiar with the system any direction is greatly appreciated

What version of windows are you on? You followed all of the instructions on setting up adb from that thread in the Shift forums? I also rooted my roomate's Shift, and I read that adb setup tutorial when I was over there. It was pretty solid. I already had adb set up, but read it through to see. When I set up adb, I had someone advise to me to place the adb.exe, and that .dll file (found in platform tools, in the SDK download) in my 'system32' folder of my PC. Once I placed those two files in the 'system32' folder, adb has worked flawlessly.
Also, have you made sure you have all the correct drivers installed? I believe I also had to install HTC Sync, because that installed some drivers that were necessary. Once it installed, I uninstalled it (the drivers will remain installed) because it can interfere with adb communication, apparently. Hope you get it set up. Once you do, rooting the Shift wasn't hard. Just follow the instructions to the t, and just copy and paste the commands, to eliminate the possibility of messing up the commands.

Thanks man I'm gonna give the HTC sync thing a shot

You're welcome, feel free to PM me if you have any more issues.

to get adb to work, you need to be in the same directory as all of the sdk tools to use my setup as an example, my stuff is located in
C:\SDK\platform-tools
when I open the cmd prompt, it starts in
C:\Documents and Settings\Chris>
to change directories, type
C:\Documents and Settings\Chris>cd \
the display will change to
C:\>
type (in my example, yours may vary unless you set your folders up the same way)
C:\>cd SDK\platform-tools
it will change to
C:\SDK\platform-tools>
then you will be able to use adb commands like push/pull, shell, devices, etc.

By putting the adb.exe and the .dll files in the 'system32' folder, that will allow you to execute adb commands from any directory in the command prompt. I don't have to navigate to my sdk tools to use adb. It saves a few steps, so you can just open up your command prompt and command away.

Or you can put the directory that contains adb in your system PATH. This will let you execute adb in a command prompt anywhere...

Windows 7 ADP help

Ive downloaded and reinstalled all drivers, pretty much tried everything. in the command prompt i keep getting adb is not a valid file. Please help. ive already use the adb tutorials and done all the stuff they said, im using windows 7 32 bit
If you downloaded the evo-recovery.zip, the file you need is in there, it's just has a different name.
The instructions where written w/ adb.exe in mind, but the file in the packet is called "adb-windows.exe."
All you have to do is substitute "adb-windows" when the command calls for "adb"
Like this -
"adb reboot recovery"
should be
"adb-windows reboot recovery"
For me to have it work, I had to go to the command prompt and be in the same folder.
If you're not familiar w/ DOS, do it this way and it will save you sometime.
Unzip the evo-recovery.zip to the C: Drive
Go to a command prompt and type the following
cd\ {ENTER}
cd evo-recovery {ENTER}
Now you'll be at the C:\evo-recovery>
Here you can type the command "adb-windows reboot recovery"
You need to set the environment in order to execute abd under any folder

What exactly are you doing? You're not in the shell are you? If so, exit the shell and do it at the dos command prompt.

wrong section. did you cd to the tools folder inside sdk folder
Make sure you have the SDK installed and when you open up Command Prompt type in "cd C:\Program Files (x86)\android-sdk-windows\tools" Obviously programs folder would be wherever you have your SDK located. After you type that in, type ADB Shell and you should be in.

it sounds like he's already in shell which he souldn't be. he needs to just be in a command prompt. you can't use the adb push command when in shell
This result from the command "adb" not being found.
Two ways to fix, either go to the folder with the adb executable in it, right-click, "Open terminal here." And then "adb" will work.
Second way is to copy the adb executable to /usr/bin. (I think xD) (One of the */bins.)
Good luck!
so im not supposed to run the whole cd\ cd sdk cd tools... all that stuff?

G2; How to initiate/ launch adb

ok,,,noob here.. but not a dummy. I want to load music on my sd card. I have downloaded everything I think I'm supposed to have.. SDK, adb, drivers eclipse java program...I'm running vista 32 and have created C:\program files\Android\android-sdk-windows. I have extracted all files I think all the drivers. I have spent some considerable time (wee hours ..) I can start the sdk .exe and the java eclipse but how do I use it to connect to my usb connected phone? I want to load data onto my sd card. BTW I have temprooted with VISIONary r14.
The cmd prompt window that comes up with the sdk .exe does not respond to typing in it. Commands typed into the computer's cmd prompt are not recognized. Or maybe I'm typing the wrong thing. I can't navigate to the android folder, to find my usb'd phone. I have read a lot of posts here trying to figure this out..I'm really at wits end anybody please help!!! I thought there'd be a desktop lauch icon..haha.
There's a guide for using ADB in the dev forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865685
If you are just trying to put music on your SD card though, I don't think you need to do all of this. Just mount the SD card once your phone is connected to your computer (there will be an option that appears in your notification drawer to do this). Your SD card will then show up as a drive on your computer...
I saw that guide..Step 4 doent apply on vista.."My Computer" and the path that is described is not on Vista, or anything similar. I can't "update your Path variable." It did not say HOW TO LAUNCH! What is it application that I need to work from for adb? I have read every post I could find here..and that one maybe four or 5 times. I want to use adb I can see and browse my SD card as drive F..thanks..I still want to run adb.. I cant type into the sdk cmd pane.

Whoa whoa whoa! If all you want to do is load music on your phone and your using Windows, either just install Doubletwist on it. It's kind of like iTunes for everything. Or just make a music folder and load your music onto that. No adb needed.
Now, about adb; there is no program to run. You don't really need to set your path either, it just makes things easier. Just cd to the sdk tools folder.

Oh I see. You first mentioned simply putting music on your phone and the next thing you've got a full development emvironment! Lol!
Cd to the tools folder of the android sdk. (Bear with me as I haven't done this on windows in a good long while). For example, open command prompt, then type "cd C:\androidsdk\tools", where the androidsdk part is whatever the sdk is called.
Sent from my HTC Vision
Once you have the android sdk on your computer- change the folder name to something simple so typing is easier. You'll also want to edit the enviornment variables (google is your friend, but I'll post a link tomorrow to help). The latest sdk is missing a dll file - I'm sure one of us can upload it, I just don't remember which one it is right now.
Now that you've got that done open command prompt an type:
cd c:\where\you\put\it (the sdk)
Then type:
adb devices
Or
adb start-server
If you get an error it means you did something wrong.
"cd C:\androidsdk\tools
I'll ad that to the list of command that do nuttin...lol
I downloaded all the sh*t I was told in these threads to dowload...yeah..everything to create an app. lol
I still am waiting to read or be informed of the precise command line that will let me into adb... tfn
thks KCRic... I will give that a shot.. nice tip on renaming the folder..I did not type cd C: first.. (the tuts I've been rackin my brain on did not say that..
I had read that it was missing and found it downloaded it and put it in tools..
the edit the environment variables is what I can't find where to do that.. thanks.
I added the missingAdbWinApi.dll and AdbWinUsbApi.dll and Adb.exe (of course) into the tools folder...
I renamed the folder in Programs\Android..."android-sdk-windows" simply "sdk"
I typed in:
cd c:\program files\Android\sdk\tools
I got in..opened a port..gave me my phones serial #
so this is where adb commands are made? (stupid question perhaps)
I thought the other cmd screen that opens with the sdk.exe was it. And I cant type anything there anyway.
If you have got "adb devices" to show you your phone's serial number, then adb is working find, and you can start using the other adb commands.

Yeah you're up and running now. If you typed adb devices or adb usb and got it to list your phones serial # then it's connected and running.
As far as adb commands, you can type adb help to get a list of some and they're pretty easy. Some of them are:
adb push <path\to\file> <where\to\push> - copies files to your phone
adb pull <path\to\file> <where\to\put\it> - copies files from the phone to your computer
adb remount - remounts your device
adb reboot - self explanatory
adb install <path\to\file> - self explanatory
adb start-server - starts adb service
adb kill-server - kills adb process (I always type this in when I'm done, sometimes it doesn't terminate and causes issues)
adb shell <linux type command> - runs command in the device shell
adb shell [enter] - operates in the devices shell until you type {exit}
Once you enter the shell you can type {su} to enter superuser. All commands in the shell are in linux format so if you're unfamiliar with that then do some reading.
HERE is a link that should help with adb also.

Apologies if you've seen it already, but most of that is covered in the adb guide on the dev forums, with that link also - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865685
Thanks for the great info... Now I'm standing at the gate (maybe the precipice..lol)
As far as completing the pathway...
I found (through excrutiating trial and error) the Vista path for step 4 on that tut.
So under "Environment Variables" there are two editable windows, and the bottom with the "Path" that the tut says to edit says to ad the path to the tools folder and the platform folders...
The question is, when I double click to edit the Path line,(C:\Program Files\JavaFX-sdk1.3....) it changes to a different path (~1C:\Program Files\Quicktime\QTSystem\
So am I to delete that line and ad a new path or ad to the Quicktime line..
ty
The existing path was probably just too long to show up on the screen (so you saw the beginning of the line initially and the end of the line when you tried to edit it). Just add a semi-colon and then the path you want to add. You don't want to delete what you already have there since it might mess with other software installed on you computer.
So for example:
...C:\Program Files\Quicktime\QTSystem\;C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
Quicktime and android are both separatefolders under program files... so....no.. that's not it. I don't even know why java showsthere... my sdk is in C:/Program Files/Android/sdk/tools...
p.s. how you do backslash on this keyboard....lol
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
The path is simply a listing of directories separated by semi-colons. When executing a command, Windows will check the local directory you are in first for the program, and then parse through the directories listed in your path. This is why this step is even needed (it allows you to run adb.exe from any directory instead of always having to change to the tools directory). This is also why I said it's not a good idea to simply delete what is already there. You just want to add the tools directory where adb.exe is located to the existing listing.
So in your case, the end of the path variable will look like this:
...C:\Program Files\Quicktime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files\Android\sdk\tools
Alternatively, you could stick it in the beginning of the path (so double-click to edit the variable, hit Home to go to the beginning, and add the directory there with a semi-colon). It should look like this in your case:
C:\Program Files\Android\sdk\tools;C:\Program Files\JavaFX-sdk1.3...
And there is no backslash on the G2 hardware keyboard (as you noticed), but you can access it by hitting the Alt key and then space to pull up a dialog box of additional symbols.
Word of advice to anyone reading this:
When adding the adb to your path make sure and don't put a space after the the semicolan. When I set mine up I spent 4 hours trying to figure out why it wasn't working, and it was the stupid space lol.
I haven't looked at the wiki since I did it back in October so maybe they've updated it to be clearer but just want to throw it out there.

[Q] ADB help!!

So I have no idea why my G2 isn't being found with the htc sync but its not. I followed this thread here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865685) I made sure i had the platform-tools installed before changing the path. I think this is the problem I am having. There are 2 paths that appear; One in user variables and then one in system variables. I have tried altering both but I am having no luck. Does anyone have any clue to what is going on?
HTC Sync will install the correct USB drivers for your G2. Although you cannot actually *run* HTC Sync with your G2 unless it is running a Sense (Desire Z) ROM. So just install it but don't try to actually run it or sync with it.
It's the System Variables path that you want to change, to add the appropriate directories. This just lets you run adb from any directory on your PC. Even if you haven't got it added, it should still work if you "cd" to the directory where adb resides (in which case you will need to put any files into there that you wish to "push" to your phone).
What is the problem you're having, is it saying "no internal command" or similar ?

The PATH issue, relates to ADB, if you are running into errors like:
'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When executing ADB commands that is your issue, it can be resolved by adding the path where ADB lives to either your user or system PATH in Windows. The PATH is irrelevant if you are running ADB from the folder where the ADB files live.
The other (common) issue is drivers, where ADB is working but won't see your device. Do you see an "ADB Device" or similar with a yellow icon in your device manager when your phone is connected to your PC? If so you don't have the correct driver loaded. The only reason you install HTC Sync is to load this driver but the driver can also be loaded separately.
Sorry to hi-jack this thread, and since I'm new to adb I might as well use this.
I have adb running, did the file paths and everything. I'm just trying to test it out, since I'm already rooted using visionaryr13 as well as s-off. Went back and gfree over that, and I've also verified through terminal emulator on my phone, but I'm just testing my skills with adb and failing miserably. I Have d/l the verify file, and unzipped in a folder inside my downloads folder I might add.
When it says:
"
VERIFY (using "gfree_verify")
Now you can try using a new SIM card to verify that it worked.
In addition you can use gfree_verify to verify the state of your locks.
Download gfree_verify.zip from gfree_verify_v01.zip
ON YOUR PC:
Unzip gfree_verify_v01.zip to a place on your computer. Navigate to where the file is on your computer, and type:
$ adb push gfree_verify /data/local
"
I'm having a problem with the navigate to where the file is on your computer and type. I have cmd open, and have tried everyway but the right way to push this through. This is the error I'm getting.
cannont stat 'gfree_verify': no file or directory
EDIT: I got it and I'm sure everyone is laughing at this idiot. So in the cmd prompt you have to navigate to where you put the folder, then push the file to your phone, DUH!
OK, stupid question number two, since I answered number 1.
When you are in a adb shell in your cmd, how do you get out of it besides exiting cmd?

Ya my problem is that when I finally get to do the commands it tells me that "adb is not recognized as an internal or external command.
@raitchison- I checked my device manager and it says that i have the most current driver for the phone. Unfortunately it doesn't say anything about 'adb' it shows my 'portable devices' then into my 'E:/' drive and in the details there it stats 'Android phone'

You just need to add the correct directories onto the end of the path in System Variables. Go right to the end of the path, and then separated by semi-colons (do not put spaces in) add the two pathnames of the tools and platform-tools folder of the Android SDK. If you have done that and it is still not working, copy and paste the path variable up here and we can try checking it.
As I said, you could "cd" to the folder with adb in it, and then run "adb devices" from there, and it should work. But setting up the path will make it more convenient.

Ok well here is the path that i have set up.
- C:\AndroidSDK\tools;C:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools
I saved the file right to my "C" drive so thats why i didn't go to the program files. I also changed the name of the folder so it was easier to type.
Edit: I got it to finally recognize my device. I went back to my path and found that i had spaced in between my ';' and 'C:/' so thank you very much Stevie on making me double check it!!!

(q) adb

I know this is a noob question but I installed the sdk on my windows vista 32bit PC I've read like everything I could about doing this but I can't seem to get adb working when I run cmd adb it says 'adb' is not recongnized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

You're getting that error because you're not in the folder where adb is. Look in the platform-tools folder. You can run it from that folder, or just copy it into the tools folder.

If all you are using from the SDK is ADB, then moving ADB to the /tools directory is not an issue. This will bork the functionality of other tools in the SDK though.
U can also add it to ur command lines so u don't have to always be in ur sdk folder to use it. Google adb and there r instructions on how to do this. Its very easy
