Terminal Emulator??? Access "adb shell"???

how do i use the terminal emulator app to access adb shell?

adb shell is only used when you're on a computer, like when using android sdk tools. When you use the terminal emulator you use different commands try This Link for some help using the terminal emulator, they're basically the same as linux commands.
also this should be in the Q&A section

lol the terminal is the 'shell'
if you're running a terminal right on the phone, then consider yourself already @root when you're typing in commands.

Sort of. You are a user, but not "root". To become superuser you have to use the SU command.
/ $ su

I'm sorry if I'm nitpicking here. Your original point remains true. You don't have to use ADB at that point to run commands. You run the command without ADB right in the terminal.

No, you're fine. I was just assuming that he was already rooted, but you're right - it's a regular user account unless you change to superuser.

in order to do what you probably want you will have to type su. It should then ask for SU permission and then you should gey
Code:
#

hello everyone, idk if im in the wrong place, but im trying to connect my non rooted phone to my rooted tablet with terminal emulator.Is there a way for me to use adb because it worked with my previous phone...its not working and isn't showing any device when i input "adb devices"...Can anyone help me please, help would be greatly appreciated ?(btw usb debugging is enabled on my phone)

New member, have a few questions.

Ive had the hero for a while now and now feel its time to root it since there doesnt look like there will be anymore major updates.
I had first tried to root it through the unrevoked method and couldnt get passed code #8: su
It just kept saying that su wasnt a valid code or something like that. so after a couple other tries i scrapped it. eventually found the 1-click way and did that on my phone. But nothing seems to have changed. The frst thing i wanted to do was uninstall the useless sprint apps such as sprint tv etc... but was unsuccessful in finding a way.
If you guy could give me a little insight on what i need to do or point me in the right direction i would appreciate it.
there is just so much info on this site that it makes it a littl overwhelming for somebody just getting into the game.

best way to test if you have root is open terminal emulator and type su if you get a # in the prompt you have root.
Or from adb try
adb remount
adb shell and if you have a # instead of a $ in the prompt you have root.
If that works then to remove the crappy sprint apps open a cmd and type
adb remount
adb shell
cd system/apps
ls
then look through and find the ones you dont want and type this
rm my_bloat_app.apk (replace my_bloat_app with the app you don't want)
and hit y to comfirm and its gone.

Titanium Backup can do it. Download it and learn how to use it. It will become your friend.
If it can't do it, you still aren't rooted!

How to make adb work on root permission directly?

I have already rooted my Droid 3( the system is Verizon 906) , but when I use adb to contol it, I cannot get it run on root directly. I need to exploit it and reboot my phone to make adb run on root.

So do you want any ADB command you send to the phone to have root privilege?
If you run ADB SHELL and then run su in the shell, you will get root privilege for that session (is that not enough for what you're trying to do?)

How to manually re-grant access?

Hey guys! I accidentally "forgotten" access to the ADB Shell on my Super SU. I am really scared now. How do I manually re-enable it? I don't want to flash my phone and stuff if possible.
P.S. If this is the wrong topic/thread please feel free to direct me to the proper area.

Regranting su access is an extremely quick and simple process. All you have to do to be able to use root from adb shell is to start and and shell on the device again, call su and grant root from the SuperSU access prompt that will appear on the device, regranting access to apps is simple too, simply open the app and when it calls for su, SuperSU will bring up the access prompt for any app/uid that it hasn't got any stored settings for already
