adb sync question - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone looked into this command?
adb sync [ <directory> ] - copy host->device only if changed
(see 'adb help all')
adb sync notes: adb sync [ <directory> ]
<localdir> can be interpreted in several ways:
- If <directory> is not specified, both /system and /data partitions will be updated.
- If it is "system" or "data", only the corresponding partition
is updated.
Seems confusing to me, is it designed to take adb sync data to sync local directory data to device /data?
I'm wondering if there's an easy way to allow it to work as a direct /sdcard/directory sync. Trying to script something with a podcast client on my computer to allow moving podcast files to the sdcard overnight while charging, but I rarely (if ever really) remember to mount the sdcard first.

Have a look at this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1865265.
This tool will do it for you (credit to Lexmazter), option 5 or 6, depending on what Android version you are on.
No need to do the wire trick, that is not for XL...
have tryed this when i ask to remove s off loads of information comes up then it just ends with a # and does nothing

I didn' try the tool myself, so I cannot help you further about it.
Otherwise you can go 2 ways: ask Lexmazter for help or go on unlimited.io and follow their instructions (as I did). If you follow the guide carefully you will get s-off :fingers-crossed:
have you got a link for unlimited.io please and this is what i get when i do multi tool flasher Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.26

Sure.
This is the link to the guide: http://www.unlimited.io/runnymede.htm
On the right side you can download HBOOT. choose the one you need (unprotected version).
Sorry, but I can't understand what the log from the tool is showing...

It seems you have typed something wrong. Maybe it happened when you performed adb push in step 1, since it reports it can't find the file or the directory. Try to repeat the whole sequence controlling exactly what you are typing.
i copy the text word for word and still get the same message it makes no sence
Weird... have you mounted system partition as writable? Is USB debug enabled? And still: are you going through the process while your device is powered on and your ROM fully loaded?
i have now got s off but since doing my memory card wont mount even when i plug phone into computer i don't even get the disk drive icon on my phone to select almost as if it don't exist and my phone says insert memory card
Try Multi Mount SD-Card from market. It should help fixing that issue.

This problem often occurs when you have a different HBOOT version of ROM, for instance if you have 1.25 Hboot and flash a 1.28 ROM, this is what you get, same applies if you flash a different HBOOT over a existing version of ROM already installed
Hope this helps

As for the tool, it provides the same flashing steps as the one presented on unlimited.io, but it does all that without the need of you to kill you fingers reading and interptreting all that, is a script, that is what scripts do

stuck at boot animation - CM

i would post this on the CM tyhread but dont have permission with > 10 posts. I flashed CM nightly to my htc one and was stuck in the boot animation, bad part is that it wont shut off....so i let the battery die. i power into recovery and found out i cant access the internal storage via my pc without it being turned on (not in recovery) so how can i put my backup or a different rom in the internal storage through Team Win's recovery? everytime it turns on it just stays stuck at boot animation...
1) you can try to flash the boot.img in fastboot.
Maybe it will boot
2) You can push your backup into sd with adb command like:
Code:
adb push name_of_file.extenction /sdcard
anyway for me to restart the phone into recovery when its stuck in the boot animation?
Longpress power, when it will reboot, longpress Vol-.
you will boot into bootloader, then, recovery.
okay, i have gotten back into recovery mode, ive tried fastboot but it just stays at the animation. my computer doesnt recognize the phone in recovery...is there a way to change that?

From fastboot you can reflash a recovery
So, you pc don't recognize the phone with adb devices?

The problem is with the name of your file. Rename it to something like trickdroid.zip with NO UNDERSCORES because the sideload can't read it. Also, in recovery mode, make sure you select install by sideload!

i still get the debug.
here is some additional information; i tried another htc one and my pc recognized it. i formatted the hard drive, and factory reset as well
What recovery are you using? Also, try using Cyanogen mod instead of TrickDroid. Both should work if you flash ClockWorkMod Recovery using the One AIO Toolkit by hasoon2000. With CWM installed, go to Install Zip from sideload and start, do the command adb sideload cm.zip, and wait. It should install.

I'd flash CWM just because I believe it works better. Here, use this Nightly -> get.cm/?device=m7. Are you having problems with TrickDroid or with CyanogenMod? Re-flashing CyanogenMod should do the trick, but make sure to factory reset beforehand and clear the Dalvik Cache after the sideload. Then try to install TrickDroid by installing the Cydia Substrate from the Play Store as well as Winterboard and then install the TrickDroid ROM from Winterboard.

You need to go into fastboot by holding down power and volume down, then going to bootloader by pressing power, then hit volume down once. After that, open up the toolkit and say flash ClockWorkMod Recovery. Alternatively, you can go into command prompt and do
Code:
fastboot flash recovery clockworkmod.zip
Make sure you rename the CWM file to the specified name in the code. I personally recommend flashing through the AIO Toolkit, but it's your decision. From there, you can follow the previously stated instructions.

This guide will help you to restore your phone if you happen to have wiped your internal sdcard and have no way of getting your phone to boot to a functional state.
This method is 99.9% safe, and should anyone break their phones as a direct result of this guide, I will send a donation
Requirements: A computer running either Windows or Mac
An unlocked bootloader, which can be achieved at http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader
This guide, best served cold, comes in three parts:
Unlocking the bootloader
Installing the ADB drivers
Restoring your phone
Feel free to skip to the part you require, and I hazard a guess at saying most people can skip straight to the third and most important part, where the magic actually happens.
Unlockin' the bootloader
First off, you need to head over to HTC Dev and select 'All Other Supported Models' in the little drop down menu, then press the big green button as shown.
This will then require you to register, and you can then follow the steps provided by HTC. Obviously, during this process you're gonna come to a point where ADB drivers are needed to flash your unlock token, so take a peek down the page. I aren't going into detail with this unlock guide because I am fully aware that there are detailed guides elsewhere in the forums, from people who have a lot more time to sit and explain things than I do.
Installin' the ADB drivers
Howdy partner, this here thang be the most important thing you can ever do regarding your Android and PC ecosystem, and you're gonna be hella glad that you did it. After installing ADB, you're free to enjoy the wonderful world that is logcats, custom recoveries, ROMs, kernels; the whole package!
First off, select your OS!​
Windows 7
Congratulations! You have managed to avoid the flop that is Windows 8, kudos to you.
First, head over to HTC Sync Manager and download this and install, to gain the required drivers.
Now, head over to the Android SDK and download it, using the big blue download button. Simpless.
Extract this zip file to the root of your C:/ drive.
Now you're done! To check it's working, open the platform-tools folder of the SDK and then hold down Shift, Right Click and press 'Open Command Window here'.
Now, type
Code:
adb devices
If your device is plugged in, and powered into Android or a custom recovery, it should appear as a serial number here!
Windows 8
Sorry to hear you're stuck with the latest and far from greatest iteration of Windows, but don't let that Metro interface get you down! Lets crack on.
First, head over to HTC Sync Manager and download this and install, to gain the required drivers.
Now, head over to the Android SDK and download it, using the big blue download button. Simpless.
Extract this zip file to the root of your C:/ drive.
Now you're done! To check it's working, open the platform-tools folder of the SDK and then hold down Shift, Right Click and press 'Open Command Window here'.
Now, type
Code:
adb devices
If your device is plugged in, and powered into Android or a custom recovery, it should appear as a serial number here!
Mac
Finally, someone with a good taste in operating systems This is the easiest thing you will do all day, believe me.
First, head over to HTC Sync Manager and download this and install, to gain the required drivers.
Now, head over to the Android SDK and download it, using the big blue download button. Simpless.
Locate the zip, or folder (if you have 'Open "safe" files' turned on) in your Downloads folder and drag it to your Desktop. If it ain't extracted, give it a double click to extract it.
Now open the folder and navigate to 'platform-tools'. Drag this to your Desktop out of the main folder.
Open Terminal and type:
Code:
cd Desktop/platform-tools
./adb devices
If your phone is plugged in, and powered into Android or a custom recovery, the serial number will show up here. Congrats, adb is set up, now lets restore your phone.
Usin' ADB Push
So, you're stuck in recovery and cannot boot, or you just need to transfer a file to your phone for whatever reason... This is the method to transfer a rom back onto your phone, in order to make it fully functional again. This works in both recovery and booted Android, meaning it is also a good way to transfer music and photos when your phone boots again. This process doesn't wipe any data.
First, open platform-tools (your adb folder as described above). Download any ROM from the HTC One section of XDA and drag the .zip inside here
Hold down Shift and Right-Click, selecting 'Open Command Window Here'.
On a Mac, open Terminal and type;
Code:
cd Desktop/platform-tools
to achieve the same result.
Now, we are ready to use the ADB push command.
Plug your phone into your computer in recovery mode, and in CMD type:
Code:
adb push NameOfRom.zip /data/media/
Be aware that on Android 4.2.2, you need to type '/data/media/0/'
On a Mac, type:
Code:
./adb push NameOfRom.zip /data/media/
(or /data/media/0/ if coming from a 4.2.2 rom)
Now, wait for the process to complete. This takes on average around 260 seconds for a 900mb rom, with no progress indicator. Don't worry, it hasn't frozen.
When it completes, type:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
or
Code:
./adb reboot recovery
on a Mac.
Your file can now be found on your sdcard, and can be flashed from the 'Install zip from sdcard' screen.
That's it, you have saved your phone, and can now get back to using it again!​
Annddd I've posted this in the wrong section by accident... Sorry I was too excited about finishing ;D
Great tutorial. I wish I had seen that a couple of days ago when I accidentally wiped my internal SD and had no ROM to flash. Thanks to the members here and hours and hours of Googling, though, I was able o get ADB working. Bookmarked!
Great work - this should be a sticky on the Q & A page. This issue/problem comes up 2 or 3 times per day. Especially since 4.2.2 releases came out.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Sticked until August 1st. If there is still a problem with formatted sd-cards then, we will re-asess.
I can't believe there are still people around android who don't know how to push I had to do that as well as I had my internal SD wiped too during the S-OFFing/unlocking...
One a bit OT, but does anyone know why the TWRP lacks the advanced "mount USB storage" feature? I had that one on my OneX....
Cheers

Neither TWRP nor CWM are able to Mount USB Storage anymore and I have no idea why. They were not able to mount on my Galaxy S3 either.
thnx
thanks you very much it helps me allot
thanks again
anyone know how to get around this so it actually pushes teh rom to the phone?

at least they allow to use OTG to install roms, so (if you have the cable) you just can wipe the internal sd, and flash using an usb with OTG :good:

Yeah, I'm aware of that. I went ahead and ordered an OTG cable when I mistakenly wiped my internal SD card before. It arrived about four days later, though, so I had already fixed the problem. I am sure when I want to do a fresh install, it'll make life much easier than having to sideload or push using ADB.
Great guide although i'm a bit stuck, when I run the ./adb push Rom.zip /data/media/0 command it says:
-bash: /Users/archiedennis/Desktop/platform-tools: is a directory
Any ideas anyone?
Running OSX btw

Update.. issue

Hi guys I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to roms and updating phones.
I managed to root my phone and add team win and super user admin thing. I even updated all the way to Google vanilla but went back stock. My issues now is I want to update my phone via the update in systems and it won't let me. My phone boots up into team win recovery.
There's a 30mb update 2.24.401..... Can you help me with this small query. I just want to be able to update

You cannot update your phone when you have a custom recovery installed, you have to reinstall the stock recovery! If you have an international htc one with 2.24.401.1 here is a step by step guide to update the phone, i wrote it for someone else with the same problem as yours!

lol dont worry your not an idiot, it happens to all of us what you have to do is boot into twrp go to advanced, then adb sideload and swipe, then on your computer open a command line where you have your folder for rooting the htc one (where fastboot and adb are etc...) and put any ROM in that folder, rename it to rom.zip and type "adb sideload rom.zip" without the quotes and you should be good to go!
Thanks one more...

Sorry I didnt say this eariler you have to run this command without going to advanced -> adb sideload so just enter the command "adb push rom.zip /data/media/0/" without going into sideload mode and tell me what happens and make sure you leave a space between zip and /media

[Q] Bootloop forever after KitKat install

So i decided to give insertcoin 4.4 rom a go yesterday. flashed twrp 2.6.3.3 via adb flash recovery which worked great.
Clean installed insertcoin kept to instructions no odex etc.... phone rebooted as required got to setup screen an just reboots itself and repeats the same procedure.
I cannot push anything via adb now all sdk is up to date and in correct folders etc.
would try sideload but i cant get any sense out of that. any help on this oh yeah.
hboot 1.54, htc dev unlocked and thought i had s-off but its showing s-on. tried rumrunner with the hope i can fix situation but no joy but the program just ends.
so whats i should route to take follow some tutorials and get back to stock or try a few more times to get it sorted?
edit: I have a backup but its on my laptop and i cannot push it through
ERROR: run rumrunner again and READ (no adb connection to device. Debugging on?
Drivers?)
Press ENTER to exitYes
This is the message I get when trying rumrunner. but there is no way i can enable/disable usb debugging as i cannot boot into the phone
I have tried many different ways to restore the phone but i keep getting remote not allowed error

I thought TWRP 2.6.3.3 was pulled due to some bugs, maybe best to go back to 2.6.3.0
then use adb push or sideload to get a Guru Reset ROM (same or close to your firmware) onto your phone (with ROOT, and without "stock recovery")
and use rumrunner to get s-off.

You didn't read nkk71's example properly.
Assuming this file is good: HTC One Toolkit 2.0 - Squabbi.zip, rename to Squabbi.zip only
try:
C:\Fastboot>adb push Squabbi.zip /data/media/
How does it go?

you cant fastboot flash a ROM. you have to, be in custom recovery, then:
adb push C:\Fastboot\ViperOne_3.1.0_RC2.zip /data/media/ <- this will take 5 to 10 min
then in recovery INSTALL ZIP -> choose zip -> ViperOne
and you should be good.
All fixed now using revone to s-off and sideloaded zip I'm back in the game.

I was having the same issue, but can't seem to get past it.
I have HBOOT 1.55 and CWM installed. S-ON.
I've tried Revone and Rumrunner but can't get S-OFF.
If I go back to Cyanogen Mod rom it works but I would like to try this ROM, no joy! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544119&page=4
