Commands for Captivate

Okay, so what program can I use to type commands into my captivate?
Or can I type commands directly into my captivate.
Someone posted that If I don't know then I shoudnt bother but if I never learn I will never become the genius dev I know I can be.

Okay I've had the android sdk for a while but I can't figure out how to get to that part. I can't even get my phone screen to show up on my computer screen.
Thanks for the fast response.

Just use the adb tools.. Should be a folder called Tools containing adb.exe
Once you have it,
from command prompt go to the folder and then start typing commands to the phone, with the phone connected to PC using debug mode.
For instance > adb devices
It should show the device connected to the PC

Go to apps, push menu button, choose either camera or massstorage mode. And enable usb debugging and enable root access for apps and adb. This should solve it. If not, reinstall your cm10 with all wipes.

don't understand why you wrote "go to apps" - in my CM10 on my p970 the USB options are in storage menu :
settings->storage->[press menu]->USB computer connection
then after choosing Mass storage i can finally debug using ADB

Turn off your phone and battery get out...wait for while. Put battery in, turn on your phone and try to connect via USB

[Q] no imei on lg thrill

im new and can not figure out what is going on with this phone. ive tried to do whats listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1734330&page=8 but i can not get it to work. the "Erase entire CP" is grayed out. totally lost. this has been the worst android issue ive ran into that i couldnt fix
edit.... i was able to erase entire cp but now i'm getting stuck on step 5 restoring imei? no new device shows up when i do step 4... thanks for any help
Restoring IMEI
1. Connect phone by USB
2. Activate USB debug mode
3. Enter 3845#*920# in dialer if that doesn’t work try 3845#*925#
4. Select Port Settings -> Select CP Image Download
5. A new device should appear at let it install
6. Open Tutty and select serial protocol. Click on open
7. Type AT if response is not OK, change port number (it is possible that when typing you don’t see any letters)
8. Type at%imei, it should display a dummy IMEI
9. Type at%imei=x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x where x,x,x... is your orginal IMEI number (found under the battery of your phone). It should response IMEI WRITE OK
10. Reboot phone

I just had the same thing. You need to make sure the right drivers are installed. Are you on GB or ICS?

Do you have the drivers installed? Is your phone detected correctly by your PC?

where can i get tutty?
EDIT: i got tutty, com 4 and 5 dont work only com3 works, com3 command"at%imei" gives me error, and the phone switches from cp image download to cp usb

I have the same problem only my phone never lets me type anything at all into putty, but just like you no new device shows and it always goes back to cp usb.
I also cannot flash the phone unless using CWM. If I try to flash kdz or bin I always get stuck at waiting for IFX modem, if I try using the official lg mobile updater it the install always hangs at 15% and I get message saying phone is no longer connected to pc.

You open Tutty on your PC

[Q] Broken Screen..

Hi everyone, unfortunatly i broke my screen, my phone was rooted and i was using CM7
i would like to recover my files, but due to the my broken screen i can't see anything so i can't mount usb storage,
I also heard that if i activate usb debugging mode i can acces my files easily.. but debugging mode wasn't activated..
and finally I heard that through Recovery Mode, i can mount usb storage, but once again i cannot see or do anything ..
so can you help me please ?
thanks a lot for your help, and thanks to everyone on this forum for their help and their roms etc !

AW: [Q] Broken Screen..
Search on google for a pic from the the right recovery version then you navigate blind witch the picture.
If this dont work you can force the into recovery mode and plug it to the PC. You can save your data using adb without enabling usb debugging

Hi thanks a lot for your answers, i think i was on cwm 3.0, i found some screenshot, and yes it's the same, thanks i will try it !
how can i save my data with adb without enabling usb debugging ?
thanks a lot !

AW: [Q] Broken Screen..
Go into recovery and plug it to the pc. Open cmd and navigate to your adb folder. Then type "adb devices" you should now see your phone listed as some random numbers. If not you did something wrong.
If you see your device type this "adb pull /sdcard C:\…" and the whole sd should be copied to the directory.

thanks a lot !! with this method can i also save my contacts, notes etc ? thank you so much !!

AW: [Q] Broken Screen..
The contacts are normally saved with your gmail account.
With this command you push your whole sd to the pc but i think if you want also the app data you have to use another command and you need root.

Yes, USB Debugging is enabled, Apps from Unknown Sources is enabled, the lot.

are you rooted?

when phone is connect type adb devices and does it come up with any ?
If no then it is a cable or driver issue
You can always try WiFi ADB aswell

yes i have and ive had no luck what so ever. just keeps saying device not found even though it displays the serial number of my Z when i type "adb devices".

If you rooted just move the apk to your phone install then move the files manually sounds like adb drivers are wrong

Have you set your environment variables correct in your Windows installation?
Google for: adb for dummies
It contains a step by step instruction of how to properly set-up your adb connections.
