[Q] adb shell "exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2)"

Hey,
Ok so a little backstory before my problem: So I was in the middle of putting a new ROM on my captivate. I had one before but i wanted to change so I put the rom in update.zip and installed it will clockworkmod recovery. It installed fine I think but then when I tried to boot it gets stuck on the boot screen. So i tried to boot in recovery mode. I geld down both the volume buttons and the power button until it reboots twice, then I let go of the power button. but it still gets stuck on the boot screen and does not go into recovery mode. So i plugged it into my computer and using
Code:
adb devices
it shows up under recovery mode. So far so good. I can use the
Code:
adb reboot
and
Code:
adb push
commands fine. but when i try to use
Code:
adb shell
it says
Code:
exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2)
So i can not reflash the recovery image. I read that I just needed to mount the /system file. But i do not know how to do this. the "mount" command does not work with adb. I would appreciate anything to help me to either reflash the rom or restore to factory or anything where i can work off of. thanks

Sh is the bash shell. Most likely, your flash just failed. Use odin to flash back to stock, and try again. Also, don't rename the rom to update.zip if you're using CWM.

Once in recovery mount everything you can system , data , cache , everyrthing besides sd card
then go into command prompt and type adb shell make sure its working if you still have root it will show # if not it will show $ I believe no biggie as long as it picks up in shell.
then type : flash_image /dev/block/mmcblk3p2 /sdcard/boot_orig.img
then type : flash_image /dev/block/mmcblk3p1 /sdcard/recovery_orig.img
select reboot from the recovery. now it will reboot and it will format misc and it will reboot again.

ya, i'm stuck in the same situation. I either get a "error -1" or it says "usage: flash_image partition file.img"
does getting "usage: flash_image partition file.img" mean the file was successfully flashed?

You are missing the space between mmcblk3pX and /sdcard.

ok, thats what i thought. when i do it the other way i get the "failed with Error: -1" any ideas on that. also if i send it back to t-mobile under the warranty, they won't send it back as damaged since i had CMW installed o it will they?

The links are down, any mirrors?

Same need files links re not working

IMG Reposted?
Hi Folks,
A couple of people have posted that the boot, recovery, and system image links respond with a "404 not found" error. This is still the case.
I recall reading somewhere else that the images may still live on the SD card on the device. If this is true does someone know where in the file structure they may be?
If not, does anyone know where to obtain the images?
Currently I'm in CWM reboot hades on my Dell Streak 7. Tried the Dell OTA update for Honeycomb...didn't know that was a BAD thing until it was too late.
I've tried flashing boot and recovery images from a backup I'd made earlier, but no luck, so thatruth's excellent guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1006829 doesn't help much...unless I can get the recovery and boot images.
So to reiterate:
I can get to CWM and clear the caches and flash a recovery.
I can communicate with the device via ADB and have flashed it with the backup images.
I can mount the internal SD card via CWM and my pc.
After flashing with the backup images, Fastboot still does not recognize that the device is connected, and the device does not apper to go through the 'format steps'.
Cheers,
L2

Found 'lightly modified' roms (thank you DJ Steve!) for a T-Mobile streak on another XDA thread. Flashed using adb, and tadaaaa, it booted! sliiiight problem. Will not boot into recovery and no wireless.
Managed to install rom manager (AKA ClockWorkMod) via ADB but CWM wan't an internet connection to install the recovery rom. grrrrr.
One of the other modifications (aside from root) by DJ Steve is the installation of 'BusyBox', This actually seems to complicate things for me because I don't really know how to issue ADB commands from the BusyBox shell. I get a lot of 'invalid command' and the like... I was able to install CWM OUTSIDE the adb shell (adb install rommanager) but once I'm in the shell (adb shell)I don't know how to issue the proper commands.
What I want to do is either remove busybox, or use ADB inside busybox to flash the CWM recovery rom, then flash my backup roms. (and hopefully return to full functionality.)
Any suggestions on how to use ADB commands inside of busy box to flash a rom?

Can anyone upload the stock rom images? I need to flash back to stock :\

Tools to take OTA for Sprint M8/Get Back to Stock

FOR SPRINT M8 NON-H/K MODELS ONLY​
Well everyone I'm here to bring you a little tool set i use to take official OTAs.I am not a dev nor do I take credit for the work. This is mainly just a collection of things I used to get OFFICIAL OTA updates. I've used this on 2 Sprint m8's with STOCK Hboots so I am sure this will work. Please feel free to share this with others JUST GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT IS DUE.
To start off there are some requirements...
S-OFF is needed
STOCK HBOOT
HTC One M8 (Sprint non-Harmon Kardon)
UNLOCKED Bootloader (If you are LOCKED and rooted PLEASE use UNLOCK Bootloader method included in zip. DO NOT use HTCDEV to unlock... Your internal storage will be wiped if you do. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
MAKE SURE TO UNLOCK BOOTLOADER before doing any of this (instructions are included in zip)
1. Copy the stock nand to backup folder in twrp
2. Make a backup of your setup
3. Restore the stock nand provided
4. Flash stock recovery provided
5. Boot up and do all otas up to latest
6. Flash custom recovery
7. Restore your backup
8. Flash modified firmware
9. Lock bootloader
10. Flash asdp for hk mod.zip in ruu mode (same as flashing FIRMWARE) if audio is not working in htc music
Locking-Unlocking & Remove Tampered flag
***NEED TO BE S-OFF!!***
TO LOCK BOOTLOADER
1. Phone on with adb debugging enabled to confirm this open cmd prompt type adb devices should show device serial number
2.Type adb shell
3.Type su to get # prompt
4. Copy paste exactly as is
Code:
echo -ne '\x00\x00\x00\x00' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 bs=1 seek=33796
5.Type exit you may need to enter that command 2x to get out of adb shell
6.Type adb reboot bootloader You should be ***LOCKED***
TO UNLOCK BOOTLOADER
1. Phone on with adb debugging enabled to confirm this open cmd prompt type adb devices should show device serial number
2.Type adb shell
3.Type su to get # prompt
4. Copy paste exactly as is
Code:
echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 bs=1 seek=33796
5.Type exit you may need to enter that command 2x to get out of adb shell
6.Type adb reboot bootloader You should be ***UNLOCKED***
TO REMOVE ***TAMPERED*** text
1. Phone on with adb debugging enabled to confirm this open cmd prompt type adb devices should show device serial number
2.Type adb shell
3.Type su to get # prompt
4. Copy paste exactly as is
Code:
echo -ne '\x00' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=1 seek=5314564
5.Type exit you may need to enter that command 2x to get out of adb shell
6.Type adb reboot bootloader You should not see ***TAMPERED***
Flashing Firmware
IN HBOOT MODE
1. Label the file to exactly 0P6BIMG.zip
2. Put zip in root of external SD card
3. Boot into HBOOT to flash (bootloader should detect zip automatically and prompt you to flash)
IN FASTBOOT MODE
1. Boot device into FASTBOOT mode (device should show FASTBOOT USB)
2. Put the firmware file to be flashed in the folder with fastboot.
3. Open a command prompt from the folder where fastboot is located.
4. Run the following commands:
fastboot oem rebootRUU (this will reboot the device into RUU mode in preparation for zip flashing)
fastboot flash zip 0P6BIMG_M8WHL_x.xx.xxx.x_firmware.zip (the name of the zip should match the name of the file you're flashing)
5. Once complete, you can fastboot reboot or fastboot reboot-bootloader depending on what you want to do next. If you choose bootloader, you can confirm that your radio is now updated to the one from the file you flashed
Links needed ...
For Locking and Unlocking bootloader (ONLY WORKS WITH ROOTED ROM AND S-OFF!!)
For Removing Tampered Flag (ONLY WORKS WITH ROOTED ROM AND S-OFF!!)
For Modified Firmware
I'd like to give thanks to the people that have made this possible
if i forget someone I'm sorry send me a pm I'll add you to the list

Great work Bro, very helpful. Thank you

Just one thought on your thread title. You might change it to "How to Return to Stock" since most of those steps aren't needed to take a OTA. Very useful for those who need to go back to a stock device though.

Need stock apps to take OTA
I'm in need of a list of the stock apps so I can figure out what ones I'm missing so I can take the OTA. Also has someone made a zip of the stock apps. Any help would be great.

in my zip i have included a STOCK backup made with TWRP that is also included in the zip it has ALL stock apps that you may be looking for to make things easier just copy that folder to your TWRP backup folder whether its on your internal sd or external sd restore that and boot up

Tring to upgrade "dirty"
I do keep a copy of the stock rom for when stuff hits the fan. I also have a backup i made before I went S-off. I deleted a few of the system apps that were bugging me before I learned that OTA also checks apps.
I'm trying to get the OTA without wiping my phone and all the setup time I have so far spent on it.
I just try to install the OTA again this time i checked the log. I get "/system/app/Plusone.apk" has unexpected contents. I guessing this is caused from my removing apps. I'm thinking i can use this to find what the installer thinks is missing.
My last question, is there a way to extract .apk and .odex files from the ruu?

okay with the first half of what you said... i have not had an ota check for apps... when removing google plus you probably left a second apk that works with it hence your error message. if you are looking to be able to take an official ota you should NOT be rooted. honesty if you meet ALL REQUIREMENTS i listed then just follow the guide you should be fine. the backup i have there is based on initial rom that came with the device. so you will have to do 3 ota updates to be exact. i made it that way out of personal preference. now for the second half of your post ... as i mentioned i am not a dev unfortunately i can not answer that question for you... slightly above my pay grade. not to put you on the spot either i'd like to keep thread on topic in OP.

htc1 m7 keeps rebooting and won't detect network

Last week after software update using auto update Option , after installing the softare , the phone will keep rebooting and won't detect the network. I guess that my phone battery was low at the time of installation(10%) however it was connected to a charger. The problem is after turning on the phone, the phone will reboot after aprox. 1minute 50 seconds and the htc1 won't show network. The settings option in network setting would appear greyed out.
After this problem, I tried factory reset, no avail. Tried recovery from bootloader option but no avail.
Tried Using RUU- RUU_M7_U_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.2_R_Radio_4A.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01_release_311663_signed_2_4
Gives me error 155 in Update Utility.
After searching the threads, I decided to unlock and unroot the phone so that I could install any custom ROMs, did unlocking and unrooting.
My htc1 m7 with following specs now
Tampered
Unlocked
M7_U S-On
Hboot- 1.57.0000
Radio0- 4T.28.3218.04
OS-6.15.599.101
Android version 4.4.3 and Sense 6

Some guys recommended me to post my query on xda and I came here with lots of hopes. Unfortunately after couple of days no one from expert community has responded to this query.

you not being ignored, their is no real answer to your problem
you can flash stock recovery for 6.15.599.101 if you can find it
and try the factory reset from stock recovery (not bootloader)
If you have TWRP 2.6.3.3 or higher on the phone now you can choose to format data and then push / sideload a 6.xx.xxx.x rom to the phone. Their are no 6.xx RUU so that's not an option. If the phone died during the update theirs no telling what partitions are damaged so the format data option is your first step

Firstly loads of thanks.
I have tried hard to find 6.15.599.101 RUU but no success.
I should use the second option to push 6.xx.xx.x rom, can you advice where can I find it. I get confused between kernel & OTA, which one is a ROM or neither one?

Use this >> http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip
adb push Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip /sdcard/
or adb sideload Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip

My device is already formatted and I can only access bootloader(TWRP recovery) and if I boot the phone it gives me white htc screen.
I have downloaded the Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0 fastboot works fine however adb won't detect my device. I have sdk tools from adroid.development and the latest version of adt tools.

boot into TWRP
from the PC command prompt
type adb devices
if it's blank you need to reinstall the htc driver
if your device serial number shows it's working normally

When I use the adb command- where should my phone be? adbsideload? fastboot?
The adb won't detect my device even with htc drivers re-installed. When I use the adb sideload button in the TWRP , it stays there for ever.
Can we use fastboot command to flash the ROM, the way we flash recovery?

Finally I was able to sideload- adb sideload Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip
After the sideload was 100% my phone was black screen, was no more in recovery TWRP.
What next step to take?
When I restarted the phone, it will again show the white HTC screen , won't go ahead and boot.
I am s-on and with TWRP 2.8.0.1 recovery.

use TWRP 2.6.3.3

Using twrp, 2.6.3- I sideloaded adb sideload Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip
By the time sideload= 100% on cmd
Phone recovery-twrp showed, zip sign verification failed.
Screen shows as follows:
Updating partition details...
Starting ADB sideload feature...
Installing 'dataa/media/sideload.zip
checking for md5 flile....
skipping md5 check: no MD5 file found
Verifying zip signature...
E: zip signature verification failed.
I unchecked zip file verification from settings and this time was able to complete, followed the step by step installation. After the installation was complete, cleared cache and dalvi and performed system boot. The phone restarts but its again stuck at white htc screen.

Made another attempt to sideload and it was successful, phone booted and rebooted. Phone turned on but again restarted after few seconds, the same way it was behaving earlier. Any suggestions?
I was checking htc Dev site, it has download section with my OS version no. 6.15.599.101- is there something I can do with this file to get my phone working.? m7u-3.4.10-ga936d02.zip is the file.
What are options to get RUU for 6.15.599.101 ?

You still never tried the stock recovery / factory reset
maybe you can extract it from that file
maybe @Danny201281 could help you check and repair your partition's if he has time

I tried factory reset and stock recovery at my first step long time ago. Only after failing, I tried the TWRP recovery and Android Revolution.

My device is already formatted and I can only access bootloader(TWRP recovery) and if I boot the phone it gives me white htc screen.
I have downloaded the Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0 fastboot works fine however adb won't detect my device. I have sdk tools from adroid.development and the latest version of adt tools.

When you say it's formatted are you sure about that?
Format Data is not the same as Factory reset or Wiping partitions. You need to use the Format Data option in twrp to be sure. So in case you haven't already and probably wouldn't hurt to do it again anyway.
Boot into twrp recovery Select the Wipe option and then Format Data option. You will be prompted to type "yes" to confirm. This will wipe everything from your device including your Rom and internal storage. Reboot to recovery to restore a completely new file system to your device.
Now with the phone still in twrp recovery, Select the Mounts option and uncheck all the boxes to unmount the partitions. Return to the twrp home screen (you don't need sideload mode for this part) in the command line type
Code:
adb shell
e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk35
e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk36
e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk37
exit
Once that's done you can push or Sideload your Rom. Personally I prefer the push method but which is easiest for you is fine.
Ideally you want to do a factory reset with Stock recovery also but since you can't find one unless you can extract it from the file on HTC dev just try the above.

I was using the format data option before as well.
This time, followed the step by step procedure and installed the OS, the phone booted again but it restarts after sometime as it was at the beginning of the problem. Any suggestions?

When the phone is booting, does it take longer than normal? And does it bootloop before finally booting.
Unfortunately this is starting to sound like a hardware problem. After formatting the memory, repairing partitions with e2fsck and flashing a new Rom there's not much else can be done. If your still getting random reboots then something is defiantly a miss.
You can check your supersu app to make sure is properly rooted, by opening supersu, it may ask you to update the Binary's.
Or just flash this in recovery to make sure your on the latest.

[FIX] Wrong pin error in multirom/TWRP restored backup

Hey guys... This is probably my first flashable zip and I created it because I was annoyed due to this wrong pin error whenever I flash a new rom in multirom or restore my backup. So here it is... . Just flash it whenever you want to go back to your previous rom or after restoring the backup.. It will remove your lockscreen but you can set it again in the security settings.

Thanks

Thank you! Not all heroes wear a cape!

You can also run this command manually in recovery instead.
From computer:
Code:
adb shell rm /data/system/locksettings.db
From phone:
Code:
rm /data/system/locksettings.db
