[Q] Help with setting up adb shell

I must be stupid or something cause I'm stuck on getting this to work. Can someone help me finalize setting up adb shell?
This is where I am so far:
I have installed phone driver and Android SDK. In SDK have installed packages API 2 through 8, usb driver package 3, etc.
What do I need to do when opening SDK manager? My phone is in tether mode but it just sits there. What am I not doing?
Thanks.

No love from the community on this one??

I'm a little confused.
When you set the evo to usb debugging and open a command prompt, cd to your sdk/tools dir, enter "adb devices" does your evo show up? It should be listed as a serial #.

Yes.....an HT### serial comes up which I am assuming is the phone. Guessing I can now just run the commands I need and it will communicate with the phone?
My confusion was that I was running the SDK Manager.exe and expecting it to find my phone and produce the adb shell.

Ok! You should be good to go. Just enter "adb shell" and you are set.

Good deal....thx.

Ok....thought I had this working. However, when in adb shell any commands I put in tells me "adb: not found".
What do I need to do from this point?

Let me clarify this.....
When I list devices it does find my phone. But, when issuing the adb shell command and trying to enter anything from the "#" prompt it always says "adb: not found".
I must be missing a step or something.

I'm kind of confused, mostly because I don't know what it is you're doing in a shell, but once you're in the shell and you get the # sign, there's no need to type in adb before your commands, for example, from the command line you would navigate to your tools folder. For me it would be
cd AndroidSDK/tools
./adb shell
Some jibber jabber about daemon starting
#
From then on I could run whatever command I planned on running in the shell like
echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/flashlight/brightness
And not
./adb echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/flashlight/brightness

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Then we can determine what's going on.

I'm running Myn's RLS4 and am trying to change the power bar in the notifications.
Trying to follow the instructions in this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836721

OK. What part are you getting stuck at?
Edit: for this code, you do not need to be in the ADB shell:
Code:
adb remount
adb push widget.txt /system/customize/
adb reboot
You just need to cd to your tools folder of the SDK in your command prompt.

The commands he has given here
Code:
adb remount adb push widget.txt /system/customize/ adb reboot
do not require you to be in an adb shell, you just open up the command window do an adb remount then type in his commands one by one and male sure you have the .txt file that specifies what widgets you're going to use is in the tools folder of your AndroidSDK folder so that adb can locate and push it to its respective directory.

Ok...that worked.
Knew I was doing something wrong. Was trying to run those commands from the adb shell....makes sense that it could not find adb.
Thanks.

i have no adb shell at all can anyone help?

Rooting with Gfree HELP!

Okay, I'm a complete noob and I'm following these instructions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2) using Gfree I believe.
I finished downloading the SDK File Manager and all the .zip folders that were mentioned on the site. However, I am stuck at the first temp root step. It says I can either enter in the command via cmd window or a different terminal. I chose a cmd window because I already have that and know how to use.
I run Windows 7, so I simply type cmd in the search bar to pull up a cmd window. I then "cd desktop" and then "cd gfree_temp-root" because it says to navigate to that folder. However, when I enter in the first command, my cmd window tells me this "adb is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file". Does anyone know what I have to do?
Also, do I have to install Eclipse and an ADT plug-in to root my phone? And is anyone available right now to chat and walk this complete noob through this????

You're fine, just make sure your android sdk with adb is in your system path, in Win7 find it in ctrl panel/sys and security/system -> advanced system settings on the left, then advanced tab, environment variables at the bottom. In there in the bottom text window, find Path, edit it, go to the end of the path line and if there isnt already add a ; to the end of the line then paste in the full path to your android sdk where adb is - for me someandroidsdkpath\platform-tools

Alright, bumping into a new problem. I found an alternative way to run adb through another guide on the forum. Downloaded adb.exe and this is what I do.
Pull up a cmd window and then cd to the folder that contains the adb.exe, and then I copied all the files that needed to be push on the wiki page that needed to be push into that same folder. Howeverr, I am getting permission denied.
I got adb to recognize my device and all, but don't understand why permission is being denied.
EDIT: While I am waiting for a reply, I went ahead and did what the previous user told me to do. Now I can use adb through my cmd window. I navigate to the window of the file but I still get permission denied. What's going on?

Hmmm, are you in adb shell running the commands? ie a $ prompt?
the prompt at the point you send the push command would look like (for Windows): c:\myrootfileshere> adb push somefiles /sdcard/wherever

No, I am in a cmd window.
This what is looks like:
C:\User\XXXX\Desktop\gfree_temp-root> adb push su /sdcard/su ... I would then get "failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Permission denied
Even if I wanted to use adb shell, I would get this:
C:\User\XXXX\Desktop\gfree_temp-root>adb shell
$ adb push su /sdcard/su
adb: permission denied

Alrighty then try adb devices (not in the shell) and just verify it actually shows your phone, it won't show 'PHONE' but it's either going to show something or not.
Next, make sure the sdcard is mounted for the phone and not usb disk mode for the pc
Another thought, make sure there isnt a loose 'adb.exe' in the folder, we want to use the one ref'd from androidsdk\platform-tools
All of that failing, mount the SD card.. copy/paste the file(s) to to SD card.. unmount SD card.. continue as if you pushed it to the SD card

WHOOHOOO! I am rooted! I had to turn off the USB transfer thing and it all worked!!!! THANKS SO MUCH!

Nice bro! If I helped at all and if you wouldn't mind, hit the thanks

No problem!

thanks and happy flashing!

[GUIDE] ADB, logcat, shell, etc

ADB:-
Android Debug Bridge
Very useful program made itself by Google for Programmers and developers. Its based on command line and basically communicates with your Android to respond to certain commands. There is vast amount of knowledge about adb but its most useful commands limit to getting:-
Logcat:-
A real time log of what is happening in background of our devices. It is really useful for developers to see which component has malfunctioned and helps to narrow down their search for what failed and what needs to be fixed. Several times users are asked to give logcats of their devices which are giving errors. We will go in detail that how to get logcats in every and easiest way possible.
App Installation and Management:-
adb proves really handy if you want to install apks directly from your PC or want to batch install or delete them.
Shell Execution:-
You must have heard of Terminal Emulator. It is an app for android to execute shell commands(linux commands) which are basically present as applets in /system/bin, /system/sbin or /system/xbin(in our case) folders. A very imporant applet called busybox is installed there mainly used for execution of basic commands during root browsing or ROM installation. Many times updater script of ROMs use busybox commands to install it. Well, these commands can be initiated from your device too but they can be initiated from adb also making it easy for programmers.
Pushing and Pulling:-
Most used commands of adb. adb makes it a piece of cake for new device developers to get an ideo of structure and basic knowledge of devices by pulling command. We can pull out i.e copy any files or folders from our devices to our PC, even the root directories without rooting the devices. It help rooters and ROM chefs of new devices to get an idea and implement their mods on them. Pushing is also very useful command. It copies your files and folders from PC to your device. Very useful in pushing some /system apps and other things
Remounting and setting permissions
Basic commands:-
Of-course basic commands such as reooting and rebooting in recovery ode and download mode are supported.
Others:-
There are several other features of adb such as fastboot, aapt, etc
Setting up ADB
Pre Requirements:-
A little amount of brain
PC(This is a windows guide, if asked I will add linux and mac guide later)
Java Runtime environment or Java Developing kit
Your Device Drivers
An Android Device
Assuming you all these ready and working properly, we continue
If you are having trouble completing Pre-Requisites, there are several guides featuring them too
Start
1. First Download Android SDK. Roughly about 70 MB
2. There may be any compressed zip file or exe file
If zip file, then extract it to C:\android-sdk
If exe file then double click on it and install it in C:\ Drive(or any other drive you want)
3. Now to get adb and other tools, you need to download 'Platform Tools'
To download them, go to the android-sdk folder and double click on SDK Manager
It will ask you which package to download? However, it is your choice which package to Download, but here, we will only talk about platform
Tools. So, simply tick on Platform Tools and click on install. Once you have done it. Go to the platform-tools folder in the directory where you installed android-sdk. You will find several files there like adb, fastboot, aapt, etc
4. Now, you can backup the whole folder of android-sdk to any external storage that will make you not download package
again if you want to. You can have it placed in any computer and run it as it does not require registry to work
5. Now, you are just one step away from using adb. Next step is SKIPPING SETTING ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE
Many guides on internet say that it is to be done for making it easy for users and if you have some basic knowledge of Command Prompt,
you will know that to execute any application with command prompt, you first need to change the directory to the one where application is
placed. And to skip changing the directories every time you open CMD, you need to put that application is environment variable. Howeve, we will not do so.
6. Type cmd in the search bar. Copy cmd.exe from there. Go to the directory where you have installed android-sdk. Go to platform-tools folder. Paste cmd there, right click on it and in the settings, select Run as Administrator.
7. You are done. Now what to do in it?
ADB Commands
Type adb in command prompt. And several commands will show up on your screen. It is very difficult to analyse these all commands, so we will only talk about most used and important commands
Connect your device via USB cable
And open the CMD in platform-tools folder(Make a shortcut of it on desktop). And type the suitable commands
Code:
adb devices
Will show the list of devices attached to the PC andtheir serial numbers. If this shows up correctly on your PC, then it means that everything is fine for continuing.
Logcat
Code:
adb logcat
It will display the real time log of your device
Best time to do it is when your device boots up
Now, many users ask me how to copy the logcat and upload it from CMD
There are several methods:-
1. Right click on the Title Bar of Command Prompt. Hover the cursor over edit and select mark. Select all the things you want to copy and then click enter. All the things will be copied to clipboard.
2. This is the correct way of getting logcat saved.
Code:
adb logcat > logcat.txt
This command will create a logcat.txt document in platform-tools folder with the complete logcat of the device. Ofcourse you can type any name instead of logcat.txt
3. I prefer taking logcat this way as it neatly compiles logs of different time
Code:
adb logcat -v long > logcat.txt
This is a very nice way to get logcat.
Installing Apps
Code:
adb install %PATH OF APK%
This will install an app on your Android
For example, if my app AreeB.apk is in G:\ drive (G:\AreeB.apk)
Then I will type
Code:
adb install G:\AreeB.apk
Be sure your apk is not in a folder that has space in its name, else the command will break at space bar.
For eg:-
G:\Program Files\AreeB.apk
Mounting
However, I never found any problem in tweaking with system files with adb, but some users said that they couldn't do it, so the problem was that their system partition was mounted as Read Only(R/O)
So, it is necessary now to tell how to mount system partition as Read Write(R/W)
Code:
adb remount
It is easiest way to do so, if it does not work then
There is another method that we will discuss in ADB Shell commands section
Pushing and Pulling
For pushing,
Type
Code:
adb push %PATH TO BE PUSHED% %PATH WHERE TO BE PUSHED%
Suppose I have an app named SystemUI.apk(PATH = G:\SystemUI.apk) which I want to push in /system/app/ on my android(or in other words, install an app as a system app). Then I would type
Code:
adb push G:\SystemUI.apk /system/app/
More examples
G:\Dance.txt file to be pushed in Dance folder in sdcard
Code:
adb push G:\Dance.txt /sdcard/Dance/
OR
Code:
adb push G:\Dance.txt /mnt/sdcard/Dance/
G:\Movies folder to be transferred in SDCARD in Videos Folder
Code:
adb push G:\Movies /sdcard/Videos/
G:\system\framework\framework-res.apk to be pushed in /system/framework/
Code:
adb push G:\system\framework\framework-res.apk /system/framework/
For pulling,
push command replaces with pull and paths are swapped
Code:
adb pull %PATH TO BE PULLED FROM% %PATH TO PLACE PULLED FILE%
Example,
All system apps are to be pulled to G:\ROM\system\app
Code:
adb pull /system/app G:\ROM\system\app\
build.prop to be extracted to desktop
Code:
adb pull /system/build.prop C:\Users\Areeb\Desktop\
However, if a folder is in platform-tools folder, you don't need to type full path
Suppose if I type
Code:
adb pull /system/ system
Then a folder named system will be created inside platform-tools with all the files in system in it
If a file is in platform-tools folder, then also no need to type full path
For example,
There is an app name DeskClock.apk in this folder then, to push it to /system/app, type
Code:
adb push DeskClock.apk /system/app/
ADB Shell Commands
This mode of adb allows you to execute linux shell commands from your PC
These commands can aldo be executed through the mobile using Terminal Emulator
To initiate shell mode
Type
Code:
adb shell
You will get an prompt like this
sh-3.2#
Now you are in shell mode
adb commands won't work here and a new set of commands will work here. But we will only go in a little detail here.
Assuming you are in adb shell mode, I will only type commands that will work on shell. Note:- These commands won't work if you type them alone on cmd. But, these command will directly work on your mobile's Terminal Emulator
As these commands can also work on mobile, I am going to tell you a way of taking logcat on mobile
Type
Code:
logcat
You will see log of your device
To save this
Type
Code:
logcat > /sdcard/log.txt
A file named log.txt will be generated in sdcard
Uninstalling Applications
Code:
cd /data/app
This will change the directory to /data/app
Code:
ls
This will show the list of files in there
Suppose, there is an app named com.opera.browser (Opera Mobile) you want to uninstall it
Type
Code:
rm -r com.opera.browser
This will uninstall the app
Mounting Command:-
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Miscellanous commands:-
su: Initiates root request
du: Shows file foldrs and size
date: Shows todays date
Forgot next ones, will write later

Doesn't it belong to General section???

great work, now i know how to make a logcat. hehehehe. tnx a lot.

Well if you say so
I will request a mod to move it
But I have seen several threads (even stickies) that are guides just about logcat
And my guide features it all
Well I will not argue and request a mod if you insist

Nice thread , every thing is very clearly stated.

Thx, Nice guide.

I suggest to change the 'remount' command in:
mount -o remount,rw /system
As the effect is the same and it works universally (at least, should)

I use the command you mentioned every time. Thanks for reminding. I can't remember why I wrote that command there!

[Q] Can't adb push

Hi,
I am in the platform-tools folder but the push command won't work.
See screenshot.
Odd..

looking at your screenshot your entering a second > sign before adb and thats whats causing the problem. replicated your issue on my pc by adding a second > before adb
for example your setup says
c:/adt/sdk/platform-tools>>adb push llama_events /sdcard/llama/
it should say
c:/adt/sdk/platform-tools>adb push llama_events /sdcard/llama/

Run these commands 1 after another, copy and paste:
Code:
adb kill-server
adb connect 192.168.1.144
adb push keyboard.xml /sdcard/android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps
adb push Llama /sdcard/Llama/

Many thanks
