Adb problems

When I try to run ./adb devices or ./adb shell it always says device not found. Yes USB debugging is turned on too. I'm on a mac also.

Mac might be your problem. Have you made sure your drivers are installed correctly?
If you just let it auto-install drivers, try finding a manual download online.

no need to install drivers on a mac. what mode is you phone in. Try both PC Mode and Charge only...I had a few dab problems myself...so much that I restored it back to stock..which fixed all of them. I am set up on a mac and use a little batch file to show and hide hidden folders, then I dropped adb into /bin folder so I didn't have to keep putting the ./ in front of dab.
-Try killing adb in activity monitor, then retyping adb devices...if that doesn't work,
- have you tried resetting your computer too? Mine weirds out every now and again and a restart fixes dab

Good suggestions, however,you can stop the adb service with adb kill-server
Try typing just adb by itself to get a list of options

ADB Not Working

MY ADB has stopped Working
It happened after Installing the CWM And TWCR
Well What happened it was saying ADB was outdated while installing but it installed CWM and TWCR
Now if i enable ADB in the phone the windows doesnt read that there is a mobile nor anything detected not even charging
When i disable ADB I can see my phone charging and i can transfer files
I don't know what to do and I am very worried ...
Hope If any1 could help...
Tried installing ADB drivers and the Android SDK .. No luck
I think the problem is in the phone as it doesnt allow me to connect to the PC with ADB on
I read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917741
and found that ro.debuggable=0 in the Deafult.prob While it is enabled ...
And there is a question too how can i backup it so if i eddit it and get a bootloop I want to be able to restore using CWM or TWCR

Can you use adb over other computers?
Also, try ADB over network. Goto Settings > Developer Options and turn "ADB over network" on. If prompted with a warning, press OK. Then you will see an ip address with a port number under ADB over Network setting. Now open cmd (or Terminal in Linux) and cd to the directory where the ADB files are present. Then type
Code:
adb connect <ipaddress>
Of course, replace <ipaddress> with the ip that you see in the Developer Options under ADB over network. It should be something like "192.168.1.2:5555", enter the whole thing. Then see if you are successfully connected by typing
Code:
adb devices
.
If you are using windows go to control panel and look for "hardware" or more specifically "drivers". It is somewhere there, just look around and you will find it. Then enable adb and connect phone. Then Select your device name from the list and right-click and select appt. drivers.

if your booted into a rom, do you have usb debugging enabled ?
its in system, developer options, if you cant see developer options then goto about - software information - more - and tap build number 7 times, it will count down and eventually say you are now a developer, you should now see developer options in your system menu.
when you enable usb debugging and plug your phone into the computer.....eventually.....and sometimes it takes a while, you will get a pop up on your phone saying your computer wants to connect to this device, allow or deny, I suggest you allow.
if you don't get the message, then with the phone still plugged into the computer, open developer options again and disable usb debugging, then enable it again.

im at a loss, sorry I couldn't help any further, but if its doing it with different devices, it has to be a software issue, especially as you say its working in recovery and bootloader, the only thingf I picked out from your picture is it states your adb is out of date, but you say you've tried that too, all I can suggest is you try this one.

why are you using an adb shell to push the file? push the file using adb and then enter the shell to chmod the "ff" file (I suppose you are pushing firewater but your renamed the file to "ff" ?) And btw "adb devices" will not output your device ID from an adb shell.
Code:
adb devices
adb push ff /data/local/tmp
then
Code:
adb shell
su ---> [COLOR="blue"]to get a # prompt[/COLOR]
chmod 775 /data/local/tmp/ff [COLOR="Blue"]--> to give read/write/execute permission[/COLOR]
/data/local/tmp/ff

No

I'm a little late to answer your question at the time you asked it, but if it still helps the OP, non-rooted Android 10 and below allowed wireless adb connections AFTER a USB connection was first
established (adb start-server && adb tcpip 5555 && adb connect [IP]:5555), but that changed (for the better) in non-rooted Android 11 and above with the new new Developer options Wireless debugging random port assignments (adb connect [IP]:[PORT] or adb pair [IP]:[PORT] [PIN]) such that the adb wireless connection never needs USB cable ever again.

ADB commands not working

Has anyone gotten the ADB commands to work? I'm trying to see if I can get by without root, so I want to enable the enhanced battery stats in GSam battery. It doesn't work for me. I'm using the latest platform tools, and I have the USB file transfer checked.
Does anyone have any suggestions that I can try?
Thanks.

Have you enabled "USB debugging" in developer options? Cause ADB definitely works here, and i haven't done anything special to get it working. Steps i'd personally take if it wouldn't work are:
Make sure USB debugging is enabled and USB is physically plugged in.
Make sure everything is ok with the ADB drivers, double-check the device manager.
Check if the device appears in "adb devices", make sure its authorized on the device.
Try actual adb shell and other relevant adb stuff.
BTW, if you seem to have troubles with ADB drivers, you can try wireless ADB instead. It is only available without root on Android 11 and does require the absolute latest SDK platform tools, but hey, i've tested it, it works, and it doesn't require any special USB drivers. Follow the "Connect to a device over Wi-Fi" steps from https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb to try that.

I had already done everything you suggested, but can't get the battery stats to work. I even tried it using wireless ADB, but had the same results. I get no indication that my command was accepted . I've never enabled permissions like this before, just used root, so I don't know if anything is even supposed to come up.

What command are you trying to use exactly?

I used :
adb shell pm grant com.gsamlabs.bbm android.permission.BATTERY_STATS
and
adb shell settings put global hidden_api_policy 1
According to GSam labs website, I need to enable both of these.
I am going to try to contact the developer and see if I can get an answer as to why it's not working.

The first command supposed to grant a specific permission (BATTERY_STATS) to a specific app, i am unfamiliar with the second one (it turns a system setting named 'hidden_api_policy' on, but i have no idea what this setting is). I have no idea if those work as expected on Android 11, and Google loves changing stuff like that.
In any case, first, make sure you don't just run those commands from start->run or equivalent, but from a command line window, so if there are any errors you have a chance to read them. And finally, don't forget to force close and restart the app in question.

Did you get any text after you entered the commands that indicated you were successful? I've tried it multiple times without success. I may try to clear the data on the app and try again.

I am using the ADB shell in the platform tools folder. Yes, I'm sure I am making some stupid mistake . I had no problem rooting my Pixel 2Xl, so I'm hoping I can figure this out. I'll just keep trying.

Yes, I do see my device, and I got a prompt on my phone the first time I connected.
I have managed to adjust my AOD brightness with ADB, so it must be something I'm doing wrong with the battery stats. I'm still waiting to see if the developer can give me any pointers. If I can't figure it out, I'll find another battery app.

I finally got it to work. The developer emailed me and told me that since I had the pro version, I needed to add pro after bbm.
Thanks for all the input!

I clearly remember you mentioning getting the package name wrong... the forum migration didn't exactly go smooth for xda, i guess :-/
Edit: WTF, now i see that last post, AFTER posting this one.

I'm having a similar problem.
Typing "adb reboot bootloader" using Windows Powershell, put my USB connected tablet into bootloader mode.
However when then typing "fastboot flash twrp.img" the command line returns "waiting for device" and appears to hang.
I definitely have Debugging ON, and "twrp.img" is in the adb folder.
