is this possible?
if so what is the commands I need to use?
i tried using adb:
adb pull /system/sd/ %CD%\sdbackup
but i just get adb:not found
please help!
adb
You cant use adb in terminal. Once you are in terminal you have to throw linux commands not adb. If you have sdk and adb set up on your machine then you can connect the phone and enable debugging, then open up cmd from windows, and then adb remount and throw those add commands.
Theres alot of threads that can show you how to do it.
so i have to adb remount then the pull command??
when using adb I get the #
i type \ls and i get a list of things
but when i type adb or any command with adb i just get
adb: not found
please help

Hey guys, i'm having a bit of a problem here. It might be a stupid problem that i am over looking, but i just cant seem to figure it out. I dont use ADB often, but i just installed cyanogens newest rom and it no longer comes with the advanced launcher. which i absolutely love. so heres my issue, I am trying to follow these directions:
Installation
- Plug your USB cable into the phone and your computer
- Make a backup of your original launcher: "adb pull /systemapp/Launcher.apk LauncherBAK.apk"
- Remount the /system filesystem: "adb remount"
- Unzip the advanced launcher "unzip Launcher_update_x.zip"
- Push the advanced launcher "adb push Launcher.apk /system/app/Launcher.apk"
- Remove the odex file "adb rm /system/app/Launcher.odex"
- Reboot your phone.
This is whats happening:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3\tools
C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3\tools> adb shell
#adb pull /system/app/Launcher.apk LauncherBAK.apk
adb: not found
#
I tried moving forward without backing up. this is what i get:
adb: not found
#adb remount
adb remount
#adb: not found
#
This is where im at. can sombody please point me int he right direction of whats going on here? thank you
As I understand it, when you type adb shell, youre in the android shell, and no longer use the adb commands, but you use the commands that youd use in console. ADB has different commands, which you can list by just typing adb.
SO,
plug it in
adb remount
adb pull /system/app/Launcher.apk LauncherBAK.apk
unzip Launcher_update_x.zip
adb push Launcher.apk /system/app/Launcher.apk
adb rm /system/app/Launcher.odex
reboot
That should work. Dont use the shell. The pros can feel free to correct me.

As far as I know this is right. Don't try to pull when you're in adb shell.

Right on! thanks so much Hummeroid.
Okay so I tried to do it without the shell and this is what i'm getting. So I'm stuck...Btw, I really appreciate all the help everyone's giving me.
C:\>cd androidsdk\tools
C:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb devices

Why are you doing in recovery, try it with the phone on.
first of all iv been trying to root my legend for hours and this is geting very furstarting... i am using the guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845512
i have finaly managed to get adb to work and have made my goldcard after 2 days of intense work and now im trying to downgrade my phone to root it
i am geting the following error in adb
when i type adb remount it says remount failed operation not permitted i have looked all over the net and found no answer
in additon to that when im trying to use adb push i type the following
adb shell
$su
su
#adb push flash_image /data/local/
adb push flash_image /data/local/
i just get the same line repeated how to excute commands from adb? this is very confusing since im noob with rooting also the following lines i don't know how to excute them too
adb push flash_image /data/local/
adb push misc1-2.img /data/local/
chmod 755 /data/local/flash_image
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc_backup.img
/data/local/flash_image misc /data/local/misc1-2.img
please explain to me how to use theese thanks!
That one is relatively easy. You could also follow Paul's guide but I like my approach better
Connect your phone to your PC. Second you have to install VISIONary r13 into your phone and do the "temproot" procedure. After a successful "temproot" you should be able to adb shell and then su. Fire up command prompt and issue:
adb shell
su
...you should have root privileges now (showing #). Next thing is backing up misc partition and replacing it with one from hack4legend-v5.zip. Extract this zip somewhere and fire another command promt there. Now you should upload flash_image binary and misc1-2.img:
adb push flash_image /data/local/
adb push misc1-2.img /data/local/
...switch back to 1st command prompt and change permission of flash_image_binary:
chmod 755 /data/local/flash_image
...and backup your current misc partition:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc_backup.img
Now flash misc1-2.img:
Code:
/data/local/flash_image misc /data/local/misc1-2.img
exit
...and you are set to downgrade retaining HBOOT 1.00.

Read better, you have to open a new terminal for pushing the files to the phone, you can't use adb push while you are in adb shell.
BTW you should avoid posting questions in development section.
Hi,
my ADB doesn't work correctly. I plug the phone into the pc with USB Debugging enabled (stock V20m 2.3.4) and run adb.
I can type su and the phone shows shell was given su rights, so the connection must be ok.
But I can't give any command. When I type in adb remount it says permission denied. The same problem with any other command like adb pull /system/app/Camera.apk
Everytime comes permission denied.
What can I do? Please help me.
You're running a kernel which doesn't enable the adb remount option (or rather default.prop in the ramdisk doesn't). To get around it:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
...this basically does the same thing. There may be something else wrong though, as pulling an app from /system/app should work without it.
EDIT: Make sure you're not in the adb shell when running adb commands. Pull and push commands for example must be run in the computer-shell, not the adb shell.
Thank you very much!

That was the solution for the problem with pull/push files.
I wanted to ask this in the actual thread but 10 post limit...
Anyway,
I can't get any GPS lock on my I9000, Onemsomic's ICS RC3.1, JVU modem.
I tried changing the NetworkLocation.apk by following this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21351809#post21351809
but since I have absolutely no idea how to use ADB I couldn't do the "change mode to 0644" step.
Someone help a noob?
Thanks.
Well, first off, download the *.apk provided in that post and place it on the sdcard.
adb is a command line tool, so you must insert those commands on a terminal emulator (maybe you got one installed, if not, download one from the market, I can recommend "Android Terminal Emulator").
So, open your terminal emulator and go to the directory where you placed your *.apk. this example has been wrote with the *.apk in the sdcard folder:
Code:
su
cd /mnt/sdcard
adb start-server
adb remount
adb push NetworkLocation.apk /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb chmod 0644 /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb reboot
Note: I wrote this example following my common sense, so I'm not completely sure if this will work!
Cheers!

I get a "device not found" error after adb remount. What should I do?

Well I have been looking here and there, and I found that adb doesn't work directly on the phone, you must use adb from your pc. So, this is what you should do from now on:
Install Java SDK
Install Android SDK
Turn on "USB Debugging" in your SGS settings
Connect the Device to the PC
And finally, use the following commands (from the PC):
Code:
// Go to the folder where you put the *.apk
cd C:\users\exampleuser\Documents\ // or /home/exampleuser/Documents/ if you're using linux
adb start-server
adb remount
adb push NetworkLocation.apk /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb chmod 0644 /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb reboot
Note:
The text after the double-slash ( // ), must not be written in the console, they are just comments
You need to install the SDK's because there it is where the adb tool (and tools needed by adb) is found, so, good luck!
I'm unable to use the adb push command on my rooted OnePlus 3t running OOS 4.0.2. My device shows up after typing adb shell and im also able to execute 'su' command but after that if i try adb push <source> <destination> it returns the following
OnePlus3T:/ $ su
OnePlus3T:/ # adb push 1Carbon /sdcard/
sush: adb: not found
127|OnePlus3T:/ #
I've already downloaded the latest platform-tools and drivers.
is there any solution for this? Thanks in advance!

You don't do adb shell,that means your running this command from your phone's terminal which isn't what your trying to do.sp instead of adb shell just do the ADB push command

Ohh such a beginners mistake there xD Also, im trying to push some pics via adb so that their timestamp is preserved and it requires me to run adb as root. i now tried adb root and then the push command which worked but timestamps were still altered. what am i doing wrong now?
Anyone?
Bump.
