Hi guys,Android file transfer it doesn't work any more after the upgrade of my Mac to el Capitan. Adb command as well. Someone has any idea how to solve it? Cheers.

Android File Transfer works fine and so does adb. You have to disable something Apple has added to El Capitan that blocked adb from working as it should.
Here is how I installed ADB on El Capitan:
https://github.com/corbindavenport/nexus-tools/wiki/Fix-for-Mac-OS-X-10.11-(El-Capitan)
follow it really carefully!
I will. Cheers!

...theres nothing there at that link.
Yeah, I found a wiki to run at that link. I don't have the brain capacity or patience to follow instructions like that at length. I'm hoping there is an easy fix. It doesn't work on Mavericks either.
AFT has worked flawlessly on both Mavericks and El Capitan for me.
Honestly dont know what I did (aside from flash the latest Cataclysm ROM) and everything is working. I can adb and use Android File Transfer with El Capitan and Marshmallow
Guys, I had almost the same problem. I was using AFP on 5.1.1 with El Capitan, and everything was great. But then the Marshmallow came. And AFP stops working. I only had the "your device is locked" error. I've killed a night to figure it out – the device was charging only, no MTP protocol. So, here is the solution, that may helps to someone of you: you need to enable developer settings, and allow USB debugging. After that, when you have your Nexus connected to Mac, swipe down the notification bar and tap on message "Charging via USB". Then choose "File Transfer (MTP).
Thats it, AFP will works correctly.

Probably because I don't see anything about a Mac on the site you're pimping.

Hello everybody! I have a lot of android apps on my pc and I want to transfer them to my nook, but I don't know if it is possible. If it is, which folder do I drop them off in? I tried to find where the other apps are installed in my nook that I directly download from the android market, but I can't find their location. Please help me out, I really need some of the apps I have and I can't even find them or can't download them directly. Thank you for your time!

Thanks for taking your time to help me I really appreciate it. I've run into a problem though. when I try to set up adb it wont find my device in the cmd prompt. I am following these instructions to set up adb: search in youtube "ANDROID SDK Tools (How-To Install)" first video. I get stuck at the part at 6:23 it just says "list of devices attached" and doesn't list anything. I don't know what am doing wrong .
psbear532,
You can use a file explorer program (astro, es explorer, etc), and choose the apk on sd and install it. Just remember to use nookcolortools and de-select and re-select the non-market app box.
I guess it would be easier - I haven't had luck with adb so far...

Assuming you've successfully rooted your NST:
1: Enable wifi on your NST and make a note of the IP address assigned to it.
2: Tell adb to connect to that IP
Code:
adb connect 10.0.0.2
That's it, if adb was able to connect you can now adb push or adb install all you want

Why?, apart from having to download and install the Android SDK, using adb should be straightforward unless you're trying to get it to connect to the NST trough usb.
Ros87,
Maybe that was my mistake. I've always tried using USB :S

Getting adb to work over USB on the NST is a pain in the a**
Some people have reported getting it to work with the Google drivers, but none of them worked for me in W7. Also I'm unable to try it in Ubuntu as I'm running that trough VMware Player and I cannot redirect the USB port properly.
Thank you both so much! Ros87 I got it to work over wifi which I think is even better since now I don't even have to deal with the wire. apeine I didn't try your method since adb worked, but thanks for your time anyway.

So why don't you install linux on a separate partition?
How does one do this without an SD card? I will be getting one soon, but for now, can I just create a temporary folder on the home directory and install it from there? Does it automatically install to the apps directory?
Thanks!
EDIT: I just figured out how much you can browse with the computer. So...
The simplest method is to just copy the apps to an SD card, insert the card,browse to the .apk location,tap on the .apk file, you will be prompted with an screen asking if you want to proceed to install or just use the adb over wifi method as explained above
I use and app names Airdroid. It allows you to install apps remotely from your computer via wifi.
I have an "apk" folder in my UbuntuOne account, Dropbox should work too.
then i have the app for the service installed.
it works fine for me
Hi all,
the question seems simple, but I am unable to solve it, would be very grateful for somebody helping me out.
I have an unlocked HTC One
Bootloader is working, OS is upgraded to 2.24.401.1
Recovery is installed and working TWRP 2.6.1.0
When starting the phone, the system asks to connect to WiFi but does not find a network in the air, hence I am not able to continue that route.
When connecting it to a Windows PC, it is recognized, the usual "drives"are mounted as the drivers are installed.
I see the HTC One but it is read-only and a file cannot be copied to it.
I tried to use the adb push xxxx /storage command but this also says the system is read-only.
I just lack the knowledge on how to continue, I cannot flash a rom as it is not copied to the device.
Please be so kind to guide me in the right direction.
Ruud
When you connect the phone to the PC - the phone will show its connected on the top (notification bar) pull that down and select /USB connected then choose
HTC Sync Manager
Now connect the phone to the pc and it will be seen as a media devise open it and in root copy the rom and anything else you need
leave the phone with that setting then when you need to move photo, music, docs or whatever its is just a matter of finding the correct file and copy/paste

Thanks, but your explanation is for normal usage, as said, I had a read-only system, this did not work for me.
I understand that the command adb remount did the trick, after that at least adb was able to do its task.

Do you have USB debugging mode activated when you connect to a PC?
Also you can adb sideload a rom when you are in recovery.
Thanks farang4u,
As I said, Matt helped me out and the last Wipe Data which I did this morning was also the trick, so now all seem fine with my phone again.
Thanks all.
I originally used Helium to move all my app data from my S4 to my Turbo. I used the PC application per the directions. Now it seems I can backup/restore data by just using the android app, not the PC application. Has anyone else tried this?

You need to have root access to do it without the pc which we don't have yet.

The Play Store description suggests that (without root) you need a PC to enable the app, but not to perform backups. Am I misreading that?
(I'm expecting a Turbo today...probably should have waited for bootloader/root after the 5.0 drop, but sometimes timing is what it is)
After a little research, I've found out that you only need to use the PC application to initially enable the backup bridge. After that, backups/restores without a PC. However, after every reboot you need to reconnect to a PC to enable the backup bridge again.

I got a Droid Turbo yesterday and I have been trying to get the Helium Desktop Application to recognize my device. The Helium android app says it requires Desktop App to recognize my device but after hours of tinkering, it still doesn't. I enabled the USB debugging and PTP as required. Installed DD from the Helium and Motorola website.
So, my question is, how did you get Helium Desktop Application to enable the backup bridge on your driod? Backing u with my S3 worked great now need to transfer the app data.
Thanks

I followed the instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56840571&postcount=5 to get the ADB driver resolved.
Enable USB Debugging under Settings > Developer options
Download and install Motorola Device Manager from Motorola site here
Open Device Manager
Expand Other devices > right-click ADB Interface > choose Update Driver Software…
Choose Browse my computer for driver software
Choose Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
Select Android Device
Select Motorola ADB Interface
Answer Yes to the Update Drive Warning
Note: When selecting the Android Device, more than one shows up so if you don't see Motorola on one try the other.
Once the Motorola ADB driver is installed, Helium was able to work on the Droid Turbo . I was able to successfully restore app data for Blitz Brigrade, Cognitile, Enemy Lines, GLWG, and a number of other apps. Death Tour was one game that wasn't successfully restored.

With all respect to @KrazyDawg825 , why do you need to go his path?
Is it due to Windows or the Trubo?
I am just asking to clarify because it works as is with the Chrome "plugin" on a Droid Maxx using a Mac.
That was the only way to get it to work on Windows. I didn't know it worked through Chrome for the Motorola phones. The Helium wiki, author, and other members advised that it was not working on any Motorola phone. I'm running Win 8.1 so I was surprised to see that the driver wasn't automatically picked up. It required the drivers to be manually installed for it to work. I'll give the Chrome plug-in a try.

Hello to all,
I just bought an Acer Iconia One 8 B1-810 and I have a few questions.
First of all, is there already a way to root this device, or else is the root under way?
Secondly, is there another way than rooting the tablet if I want to get rid of the bloatware? There are many pre-installed Google, Acer and Amazon apps I'd like to get rid of.
Now, am I right to assume that to get rid of the bloatware, I can simply stop and deactivate the apps I don't want, and then erase the corresponding .apk and .odes files in the appropriate folder? Or is there something else that I must do?
Thanks for helping; the Iconia One 8 B1-810 is a fine tab, but this bloatware is driving me insane!
Best Regards and a Happy New Year from the South of France.

Dead link and a few questions
[email protected]Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I've got a few questions/comments:
- The first link doesn't work, unfortunately.
- Will this root work for all Intel-based Android tabs?
- I wen t to Acer's website. There are no USB drivers to download for the Iconia One 8 B-810. I already connected my tab to my laptop, though, and it was recognised by Windows 8.1. Does this mean that the USB drivers might already be installed by default on the laptop?
Thanks for helping,

Hi again,
I downloaded Cydia Impactor and tried to upload the drivers to my device as you said but it doesn't work. I connect the tablet to the computer with an USB cable, launch Cydia Impactor, choose USB then Driver Scan but all I get an error message stating No such device. Any idea about what I am doing wrong?
Since you have already rooted your tablet, could you possibly attach the drivers here or send them in a private message? This would really help me.

hi, in order to install the drivers, you have to activate the "USB debugging" option under the "developer options" on you device.
then run Impactor.
if that fails, tomorrow I will leave you a backup of my drivers on attch.

Hello Alexys77
I have got the same problem as Slithertooth and i get exatly the same screenshots on my B1-810 when I start launcher.bat on the computer.
Many thanks for uploading your drivers here. I downloaded the .zip file on my computer but I don't know where to start.
Could you please tell us which files we need and how we must install them on the computer after dezipping?
Sorry if I ask silly questions, but this is the first time I am atempting to do this (I rooted a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 a long time ago, but it was a one-click root-thing).
Thanks again for helping,
vbdx66.
hi slithertooth and vbdx66 thats easy to resolve .
This screenshots mean that the ADB drivers are not correctly installed.
To resolve this, with your tablet in Droidboot mode and connected, go to device management on your PC and find driver with a "yellow ?" click properties click on update navigate to unzipped drivers and click ok.
Then execute launcher.bat file again.

i mean Fastboot mode, Acer call it Droidboot.
-power off your tablet , then press V+ and Power, old it for a few seconds and release it when Acer logo pops up.
it worked!
I booted into "droidboot" and then connected to my laptop with usb debugging enabled. Then i downloaded Cydia impactor and using the USB drop down menu in this small program I was able to successfully instal the needed drivers. CWM then came up following the previous instructions.
Now can we flash ROMs on this tablet???
Success!
Well guys, I went through the whole process again, which was very tedious to say the least, and apparently it worked, SU is now flashed on my B1-810!
I now have Root Access in ES explorer, so this is simply brilliant. I can now access the external SD card or without restrictions again, which is just what I was looking for
Something strange, though: I installed Root Checker and it says me my tab is not rooted... Can it come from the B1-80 running an 'exotic' Intel Bay Trail processor?
I would be very interested to know what results you guys get from Root Checker after the whole rooting process is completed. Does Root Checker also tell you your B1-810 is not rooted even though it is? Is there another way to check that the tab is properly rooted, or can it be 'half-rooted' or something of the kind?
Best Regards to all and many thanks to Alex for the great job done
Update - Tablet Rooted
Hi again guys,
According to another root checking programming, my tab is properly root. Screen capture in attach. This time I used the Root Checker programming from Free Android Tools.
Update - I checked properly again, and now the other progrwm, Root Checker Basic developed by joeykrim, also tells me my tab has full root access. Cheers!
And Now That B1-810 is rooted, what?
My main concern to root this tab was to get full access to the external SD card again (done) and to definitely get rid of the bloatware, which comes unfortunately in quantities on the Acer B1-810. I already deactivated many apps I won't I use, like Email and Gmail (I use Aquamail) and Acer Docs, Acer Music, etc.
Now that the device is rooted, can someone who's already done this can tell we whether, under root, there is a safe and efficient way to completely uninstall these unwanted apps, like any 'normal' app downloaded from Google Play? Should I just suppress the relevant apk's with ES explorer or could this make the system unstable?
Furthermore, is there a way to control which apps the tab will start when booting?
And lastly, is there any way to tell the KitKat Camera app that it should store the pictures on the external SD card by default?
Any other things you guys are willing to do now that your tab is rooted? I am curious.
Best Regards.

And lastly, is there any way to tell the KitKat Camera app that it should store the pictures on the external SD card by default?
Any other things you guys are willing to do now that your tab is rooted? I am curious.
Best Regards.

I deleted anything I didn't want using es file explorer. Navigate to the system app list from the dropdown menu and delete all the bloat you want. I deleted quite a bit and just disabled anything I was unsure of and I've run into no problems yet.
Which system apps to delete?
@slitertooth: Could you please be more specific? This is the first time I am doing this and I am afraid of damaging the device. If you don't mind, which apps did you deactivate and which did you completely uninstall?
Thanks.
Hello,
I cannot connect with android file transfer for Mac and My Note 5- It says try restarting or reconnecting. ANybody else get it to work? I have it set to MTP and I have restarted; it never works. I chatted with Samsung and they said to install smart switch which will install the drivers, when I did this I got a note saying AFT would likely not work and it did not. So I cannot transfer anything...
Help
thanks,
There is a arrow beside name of device pointing down. Click that and then double click the file. Opens up for you to transfer. Way better than AFT ever was

download and use an app called AirDroid
Sounds promising. Please explain in more detail. Where are you looking to see the name and down arrow? What app do you wind up using?

I have the same exact problem.
Neither T-mobile, nor Google nor Samsung could help. (That wasted hours of cell phone time!) I did get the Software Data Cable app to work with Filezilla, but WiFi xfer is way way too slow, as I needed to xfer 36 Gb of data.
Final solution was to use my wife's Windows PC. Our Note5s mount there as hard drives, giving full and fast access. Why, oh why, can't a Mac do that?!??

Hi,
I got it AFT to work on my MAC. I had to uninstall KIES first, Install AFT and reboot my MAC.
After that I was able to use AFT (MTP on the phone) to transfer files from my device.
Here is my config
Device: SM-N920T
BUILD: N920TUVU2COJ5
OSX: 10.11.1
AFT: 1.0.50.2266
Alternatively you can use ADB from the ADT and pull files via USB... but that is a lot more work
From terminal: adb pull /sdcard/<path to file>/ /path/to download/
Hope that helps someone.
Thanks,
Matt

From what I have experienced, its either Smart Switch or AFT. You have got to choose any one. I kept Samsung Smart Switch... maybe because I was tired of using AFT all these years and wanted a change. And from what I have seen, Mac doesn't need drivers. Its only for Windows.

If it's ok, you can try some other Samsung mobile manager tool. It allows you transfer files from all kinds of Samsung mobile phones to computer for sharing or backup just via USB connecting cord. Hope it works.

Can you give the link to Samsung Mobile Manager Tool? I am not finding anything on Google with that name.
It does not work if Kies or Smart Switch is installed. You need to properly uninstall them first. I use Android File Transfer without a problem.
