Hi guys,
sorry if my english isnt so good...
i'm in trouble with ADB..
i want to upgrade my swype keyboard on my NEW M1 rom eu....i got the 1.58 and i want to try the 1.60..
i found a thread on this forum with commands for upgrading the swype like this way:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
su
pm list packages -f | grep swype
rm /system/app/<restOfApkPathFoundInAboveCommand>
pm uninstall <value after apk= found in result of 2 commands above>
exit
Install normally. If you want the apk in the rom:
adb push <newSwype.apk> /system/app/<newSwype.apk>
adb remount
adb shell
pm install <newSwype.apk>
(found here-> LINK)
I'm stuck at the beginning:
Code:
C:\android\tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
9000ec2a228b device
C:\android\tools>adb remount
remount failed: No such file or directory
my phone is rooted and in debug usb mode..I dont understand how can I go ahead...
what can I do?
thanks

oh..i'm not the only one! : >
we need to find the solution...but it's not easy..
are u using the NEW M1 rom too?
Rooting doesn't automatically give you remount permissions AFAIK.
i just use this command
Code:
adb push test.txt /sdcard/test.txt
and the copy is ok....i found the file in the sgs sdcard...
The command adb remount is for the /system directory (for set write permission) .... i think it cant find the directory /system on the phone......why?!?!

Are you using the internal ext2 lagfix? I think that causes problems with the adb remount command. It doesn't work for me either.
Same results using a different ROM?

No lagfix installed at the moment..i installed lagfix when i was on M2 but i think that reflashing removed the lag fix...is it right?

adb remount as well
Trying to remap hard keys, adb remount along with push and pull do not work. Depending on whether im in shell or not I get no such file or directory or file not found errors. I can change into directory of each of the folders im trying to work with, and look at the file but I can't push it from my tools folder(locally) or pull it from the system folder. Every tutorial I see has adb remount command first, which fails every time.
Samsung Fascinate
Blackhole-build your own rom
(also tried on jt's latest rom, same issue
Crazy
I'm having the same issue here too. I'm trying to get a custom boot screen on my rooted Samsung Infuse and I've tried every way I can think of and it wont take. Clockworkmod says successfully installed, but its not. Soon as I reboot I see the At&T stock boot. I've fixed all of my permissions and still no luck.
So I saw a solution to do it via adb by typing "adb remount" and I get the same thing u guys are getting. I've got a headache now. Done all I could, even typing "shell", "su", that all goes well then when I tried to push it "adb push bootanimation.zip system/media" I get adb: not found. Smh, is it a device issue?
i think ive got the solution

I've just pushed new Hero Java app into my rogers build and it works fine.
What you basically need is:
Jbed.apk (install with adb install)
libjbedvm.so (adb push /system/lib) - remember to remount as RW.
I strongly suggest to run linux-swap (as it killed all my applications and hanged for some time without it).
Files taken from Drizzy's build.
I just went to getjar.com and d/l the jbed runner, installed and it worked perfectly without pushing it but I haven't found any good use for it, must java programs are worthless on our phones since they were made for regular phones and not smartphones like ours
I have a .jar file on sd, but it doesn't read. Anyone know for what OS i have to download it for (ei: motorola razr)

What is remount as RW? Just want to make sure I get this done correctly.
So I just download it and then:
adb install jbed.apk
adb remount
adb push libjbedvm.so /system/lib
adb shell reboot

/system is originally read only, you can't write files to it. It's for protection/security reasons. Run the following command, which remounts it as RW (read-write, instead of read only).
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

Wanting to know the same thing..
You don't need to do all this, I posted before that, go to getjar.com and find the j2me runner and install, it works the same and does work on cyan's roms
Put both files on root of sdcard.. and do this on terminal
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/jbed.apk /system/app
cp /sdcard/libjbedvm.so /system/lib
reboot
Or download it from getjar.com like gridlock32404 said..
And yes it works on cyan's rooms..

Chances are you will need to run a fully compliant j2me jad or jar file. as for a jad u need to make sure the jar file has the full path or else it will fail.
java apps made specifically for Blackberries and not for universal j2me devices will not work as well as most java apps for Symbian based Nokia phones and specific Ericsson models.
Also a lot of Nokia apps will not have properly built manifests but those u can go in and correct or build yourself and repack the jar
your best option for downloads are any Motorola or Samsung since 99% of them are purely java based with the exception of the few Win Mob

As hinted at in the other thread, the solution is to delete some stuff from your /system/ directory.
I deleted about 20 ringtones I never use from /system/media/audio/ringtones and then repeated the adb push command. Worked a treat.
I am trying to pull the Sprint_Core.apk out of Damage's 2.5 rom and try to mate it with this 1.0 rom.
But every time I try and pull it it will simply give me the adb options, or will say no such file. Here's what I'm doing:
adb remount
adb pull system/app/Sprint_Core.apk C:\My Documents
I have also tried, making /system writeable but still no avail.
Can someone direct me to how I'm commanding this wrong?
Thanks!
adb remount
adb shell
cd system/app/
rm Sprint_Core.apk

See if this works:
adb pull /system/app/Sprint_Core.apk "c:\my documents\"
Make sure "My Documents" exists in your c:\ drive.
Try this
adb pull system/app/Sprint_Core.apk C:\Sprint_Core.apk
no remount needed it will put right on your c drive dont do that rm stuff unless your tryin to remove it oh wait according to my adb cheat sheet that actually wouldnt do anything without adb shell in there

He can then just extract the file from the update zip.
I have been trying for some time now,pushing files via adb commands onto nexus one but keep getting cannot copy file read only file error.I am fully rooted and unlocked.I have also reinstalled the android sdk but always get the same error when I push the image file.has anyone experienced this with their phone. I have a feeling its something to do with the SD card but can't be sure.any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I know you must be thinking "Jedi"how can he can he call himself an androidjedi when he can't sort this simple problem (to some of you),but I must say even a Jedi needs to learn!
try adb remount before your command
Dunno if this will help but have tried changing the system to rw then try to push
Tried that no cigar
are you trying to push it into your sdcard or the phone system??
and remember the whole folder name has to be in the push so it woul have to look like
C:\Users\Android>ad push "C:\Users\Android\Downloads\Android\Nexus 1\Phone.apk" /sdcard/files
has to have full path of where you are pushing it from/too.. i have mine sdk setup to use adb in any directory as well why you dont see it in the sdk directory
@ilostchild
Thanks i will try that later today and let you know
As for pushing the file - i am trying to push it to the sd card - but i am not really sure as i am following instructions in the [HOW-TO] Revert HBOOT 0.35.0017 to 0.33.0012 thread in the forum
as i need to downgrade my Hboot from #17 to 12
are the commands different for pushing a file to the phone?
the more i think about i think i need to flash the file to the phone - but i will try your adb command format of specifying the location of the file in the comp

Ooo you want to push to sdcard.. ok then yea, you would type it like this
C:\android-sdk-windows\tools> adb push C:\Users\Android\Downloads\Android\signed-passion-FRF50-from-
ERE27.1e519a24.zip /sdcard*
if you dont have the option to use adb in any directory, then you have to be in the android sdk directory and in tools
cd android-sd-windows
cd tools
adb push(drag the file you want to push in the command prompt window) /sdcard*
sorry i know its detailed and im sure you know all these things.. but it kinda gets the questions out of the way for future problems to come

I just put cm7 on a sd and am running it on my NC. how do I get the market on it? I saw one link but don't understand how to do it.
If all you want is the market, you can download the newest market APK from my webserver. The link is:
http://www.r00tyou.com/android/tools/Vending(new).apk
To push it to the device simple connect the device to your computer using ADB and type the following in the console:
adb devices
adb install \path\to\the\downloaded\apk.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Wait for it to successfully transfer over and install.
The viola, you have the newest market APK.
However, I suggest that you download the newest GAPPS from the cyanogen website and push over the whole gapps.
To do this, simply download the latest GAPPS from here:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#Google_Apps
Again, using ADB type the following commands:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
adb push [the path to your SDK tools folder]\system system/
adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The console will show the progress of what apps are being transferred over and installed. Once it is done rebooting it will prompt you for logging in to your google account to setup your device. You can simply skip this (Tapping in each corner of the screen starting from the top left going clockwise) or you can proceed with the setup process.
Hope that helps
Thanks for the info. It took some doing because I haven't written code since DOS.
Thanx alot man i had the same problem and this worked perfecty
Not sure if it's important since /system/ is mounted ro anyway but all apps in /system/app/ have 644 permissions, pushing files with adb (whether in linux or windoz) will give them 755 permissions defaultly, so I usually do a:
chmod 644 [app-name].apk
after I transfer the file. Might be a good idea to do this if you are remounting it a lot.
Cheers,
Mike

Links to the necessary files are listed at the bottom.
Remember, I am not at fault if you brick your phone, now, proceed.
Connect your phone in charge only mode to install the LG Bootstrapper and drivers, or grab the LG Universal Drivers.
Change your USB Mode to Internet Connection
Go into Settings/Applications/Development and ensure USB Debugging is turned on
If all goes according to plan, you should see the ADB Ladybug icon in your notification bar
I updated the Rootzwiki page with the same info found below.
Busybox actually comes installed by LG on the Revo, how awesome is that??
Download the rageagainstthecage binary
Download the SU binary
Move these files to the same directory your adb.exe is in.
Code:
The > and # characters below illustrate the prompt
you should have, if you have the $ when you go into adb shell,
exit out and type 'adb usb' then go back into adb shell and
you should see the #
Open Command prompt (either use the Windows Key+R and type cmd or start/run, then type cmd)
32-bit users: >cd c:\program files\android\android-sdk\platform-tools
64-bit users: >cd c:\program files (x86)\android\android-sdk\platform-tools
Or >cd (whatever directory adb is in)
>adb devices (verifies you are connected)
>adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/temp/rage
(if the above command fails due to read-only, type 'adb usb' then 'adb root' to validate root status, then 'adb devices' again to verify connection)
>adb push su /data/local/temp/su
>adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/temp/rage
>adb shell ./data/local/temp/rage
>adb shell (If this gives you a $ prompt instead of a # prompt, type 'su', if that fails, 'exit', 'adb usb' like above.)
#mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/mmcblk0p12 /system
#busybox cp /data/local/temp/su /system/bin/su
#chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
Verify the file is in place w/correct permissions
#cd /system/bin
#ls -l *su
After the ls command you should see the following returned by the system:
-rwsr-sr-x root root 26248 2011-05-29 01:09 su
At this point, you may way to remove the files you put in /data/local/temp (optional):
#rm /data/local/temp/su
#rm /data/local/temp/rage
continue with commands
#reboot

Just a note for some. The rageagainstthecage bin file may be detected as a virus/trojan. It is not. You may want to disable your antivirus before downloading the .bin file.
I run avira on my desktop and it caught the file as a virus everytime I downloaded it and then deleted it. Avast on my laptop however did not.
Root is simple if you follow the instructions. You need to make sure that adb recognizes your device. Takes 5 minutes to complete, took me longer to install adb again and update it.

Hey guys, either using S1C or ADB Commands, have we found out if it's possible to unroot this as long as you Nand Backup the stock rom then unroot from there yet? Just because I got this phone as a filler/4g unl. lock and got buyback on it from best buy so I could buy a dual/quad later on when they come out .

Doing a factory reset I believe will unroot you. There is no nand back up at this time. We are waiting for a recovery mod.

Oh ya I know, I just always keep a stock one, on the Inc if you factory reset from an AOSP rom, you'd bootloop, so you had to make sure you were on a Sense 1.0 or stock rom(from my experience), so I was just making sure it was no big deal to go back.
Any idea when we will have cw on this?

If you have to return your device, simply remove the superuser app, after you unfreeze anything you may have frozen then factory reset. They honestly will never know it was rooted. The only way now that you can really tell is the super user app from market.
Just so everyone knows. SuperOneClick can root and unroot this phone ok.

No No, I was saying we need to praise Koush's good work so he will make one faster .
And Stetsonaw, any idea if I root through ADB, can I unroot with S1C, since it uses the same idea.
S1C for whatever reason will not run(tried three computers, a XP, Vista, and Win7 lol), it keeps freezing at the same spot, everytime.
Should be able to, since S1C does what the ADB method does... or you could just delete the 'su' file out of /system/bin and /system/xbin (if it's there) to unroot.
EDIT: I couldn't get S1C to open on my desktop, and my laptop, which would open the program, would bluescreen when i connected the phone, so i had no choice but to do it the ADB way.

Hmmm, ya now my computer for whatever reason won't open up ADB through command. This is getting irritating lol. Should be nice and simple, but it just won't go through. If I downloaded the SDK Manager like 4 months ago, it shouldn't matter, correct?
make sure you change directory to wherever your adb.exe is located... as in:
Code:
cd C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
