please little help on "adb" - Nexus One General

When i try typing " adb devices" in CMD.
I get
"list of devices attached"
what am i doing wrong?

You need to be in bootloader, turn off, then turn on while pressing and holding the trackball. Make sure USB debug is enabled in the N1 Applications setting.

did as u said still the same thing "list of devices attached"
i downloaded latest sdk2.0
and did all as the google page says. its weire why it doest read ADB
fastboot read fine when i write fastboot devices, it show the serial of the phone...
can i add applications through fastboot? instead of adb?

I have the exact same problem. Did you ever figure it out?

What directory are you working out of? If you did the default install of the Android SDK. Try this:
Code:
cd c:\android-sdk-windows\tools
Then:
Code:
adb devices

You have to open the command prompt from within the tools folder from sdk folder.
Also, its never worked for me while my phone is in the bootloader, i run abd commands while my phone is booted normally (with debugging enabled).
I use adb shell stop, adb remount, whatever commands you wanted to do originally, adb shell reboot.
Hope that helps, good luck man.

Sounds like maybe the driver isn't installed correctly. Check your device manager and see if the N1 shows up in there and what it's named.

That is fastboot, fastboot for the bootloader, ADB for everywhere else
Are you on windows or linux?
Also try "adb remount" when you are in the /tools folder, then try "adb devices"

Make sure USB Debugging is on..that could be it

ADB Problem with HTC Magic Vodafone

Hello, I install the android SDK correctly and install all correct drivers, all correct files from the google repository, and reading on unlockr, you need to type CMD and enter a few commands, the final one being ADB devices, which is meant to bring up your device serial/id but doesnt show nothing for me, i deleted all drivers with a program, and it re-installs them, I put the phone into debug mode too, but whatever i try, i cant root my magic (32B), please help!!!!
i have followed every single guide but cant blooming root my phone!!!
HELP!!!!!!!!
Install the HTC Sync software first. If this connects correctly and recognizes your phone, then the ADB will find it too. I use it as a test, whether the drivers are installed correctly or not.
To start the ADB, you have to navigate to the folder where the SDK was extracted using the CMD Prompt, and then into /tools. There you type ADB and the command you want to execute.
done that mate, going to /tools and then adb devices and its meant to say a device serial, but on mine it shows nothing
As far as I know, you have to have a recovery installed to access adb.
Write "fastboot devices" while in /tools to see if the drivers are OK. When you install a recovery, adb should be accessible.

ADB install

I managed to install the drivers but how do I open the shell? I want to access some lost files.
I followed the instructions but adb_usb.ini was nowhere to be found so I had to create it.
I have to control ADB via cmd.exe right? Anyone can guide me?

Ok, to get to a shell on the Nook you have to use a shell on the host computer.
In Windows, a shell is known as cmd.exe, "MS-DOS Prompt" or command.
That's the (by default) black window with text.
You can start a Windows shell through the Program list if a shortcut already exists.
If not, you can start it by holding down the Windows key, hitting "R" and typing cmd.exe in the box.
The little box is in a sense already a shell, but it makes a bigger looking shell.
The program adb.exe is the one that you will run to interact with your Nook.
You will have to either be in the same directory as where adb.exe or else have that directory in your PATH.
There are a bunch of commands that you can use (documented in the second link above).
You must first tell ADB how to connect to your device through either a "connect" (for WiFi) or "usb".
Once you are connected you can issue the other commands.
Code:
adb shell
This will let your Windows shell access a shell on your Nook.
Since this is an entirely different system, the commands are different.
In Windows, to list files you type "dir", in Linux (the basis of Android), you type "ls".
I can get to the directory of adb.exe on command.
I don't get it what am I supposed to do next.
If I run adb.exe it starts to load something and then nothing. The Nook is connected, it has Noogie as it's CWR.
After running adb.exe what do I do? Do I go to the nook directory or something? The thing is that I don't even know if I'm running ADB correctly. I followed everything on the wiki

Um, Clockwork Recovery and Noogie are two separate and unrelated things.
Code:
C:\>adb usb
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
At that point it will either say that it found a USB device or that it didn't.
If it's connected, you can type "adb shell".
On Windows, when you click on the USB icon on the taskbar it will list what is connected.
Normally with CWR you should see two lines, USB Mass Storage and ADB.

[GUIDE] Fixing "Debugging mode pop-up"

Hello, recently I've ran into a stupid problem after unlocking bootloader on my M7. Here is what happened, after unlocking I was not able to use my phone in debugging mode, the authorization pop-up didn't show up wherever I connected my phone to PC in ADB mode. This was not Drivers fault I just lost RSA Key, I managed to get it back, I hope it will help you also.
To get RSA keys you need to do next thing.The trick is to create the .android directory elsewhere, for example on the SD Card:
You need Android Terminal Emulator and Root for this operation. ( Link to Android Terminal Emulator: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en )
Open Android Terminal Emulator and write:
adb kill-server
HOME=/sdcard adb start-server
At this point you should have /sdcard/.android and the 2 keys in it.
Then just copy adbkey from your phone to your computer into C:/Users/YOURNAME/.android then write in terminal.
stop adbd
start adbd
Then connect you phone in ADB mode Wifi or USB and check again:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices
Now authorization prompt should pop up!
This issue is also known as Unauthorized device in ADB mode.
Good luck!

Introduction
adb and fastboot are very useful command line tools. They can be used from Windows, Linux or Mac to carry out tasks on your android device, such as moving and backing up files, rooting and restoring your phone to it's factory state. Understanding how to use these tools could save your phone when you get yourself in trouble. This is especially true of rooted users. Particularly those of you who are "new to the scene". You definitely should read and understand this thread before you do ANYTHING root related.
This thread is not intended to be a non-exhausted reference. It is merely here to give an overview of the most basic of basics

What is fastboot?
Fastboot comprises of 2 components.
1) Fastboot mode on the phone (The Bootloader)
2) Fastboot tool on your computer
Fastboot is a small command line tool that you can use from your computer whilst the phone is connected via USB and you are booted into the bootloader. The most common uses for fastboot are:
Unlocking the bootloader - needed as part of the rooting process
Flashing a custom recovery to the device - needed as part of the rooting process
Flashing factory images - used for saving / trestoring your device back to stock
Being able to do these 3 things are essential before rooting. Many new users skip learning these and use a toolkit to root. As a result, when they mess up and we try to explain what they need to do to fix their issues, it becomes very difficult for us to help as fastboot is not understood. It is YOUR responsibility to understand these things BEFORE you mess up.
What is adb?
adb is another small command line tool that stands for "Android Debugging Bridge". Again, it can be used from a computer connected via USB to your android device. It can be used whilst the device is booted into Android or (if you have a custom recovery), it can be used in recovery too, unlike fastboot (yes, adb and fastboot are NOT the same thing) which can only be used in the bootloader.
adb can be used to push files to (or pull files from) your phone. It can also be used to execute many of the commands available in Linux terminals (Or Android terminal emulators) on the device itself. We're not here to cover all these commands however. We just want to cover the basics.
How to install adb and fastboot
adb and fastboot are very easy to install and can be installed on Windows, Linux and MAC computers. The Windows install can be a little bit more complicated than the other 2 and may need additional drivers installing too.
Windows.
There is a very handy tool that can install adb and fastboot in 15 seconds. It is recommended that you use this to install adb and fastboot. Please see the link immediately below for that tool:
ADB, Fastboot and Drivers - 15 seconds ADB Installer - Really quick and easy way to install adb and fastboot (by @Snoop05). Download links are at the bottom of post 1.
This tool asks if you want to install adb and fastboot (to which you should answer Y) and then creates c:\adb\adb.exe and c:\adb\fastboot.exe
It then asks if you want to install it system wide .. This is asking to install for all windows users. < 15 second installer needs updating to SDK 23, which is required for latest Android versions.
Download the latest SDK (adb and fastboot) versions here: https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html (Scroll down to SDK tools only) then download the Windows *Installer*.
Open the installer and select "Platform-tools" and install the packages. This should create "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools"
Now we want to set this path as a Windows Environment variable PATH to make the executables work system wide:
right-click computer > properties > advanced > environment variables.
under system variables click "path" and click "edit"
at the end of the line, add the below:
Code:
;C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
Please note, the semi-colon ; is VERY important.
You may also need to install drivers.
Here is a link to the Google USB Driver: DOWNLOAD THIS
Code:
To install on Windows 7:
- Ensure existing drivers are uninstalled first*
- Extract the zip to c:\adb (created earlier by the installer)
- Right-click "Computer" > Manage in windows and choose "Device Manager"
- Boot the Nexus 6 to the bootloader (Volume down + Power) and connect the USB Cable
- Watch for any new devices with exclamation marks appearing
- Right-Click the new device > Update driver software
- Choose the "browse" method and browse to c:\adb, find teh folder you extracted then follow the wizard to the end - using amd6 64 if you're on a 64 bit system and i386 if you're on a 32 bit system.
*To uninstall existing drivers, boot into Android and connect the USB cable. Monitor device manager for the device showing up. To uninstall the device, right-click it to uninstall it. At the prompt, ensure you also choose to delete the driver. Repeat this for bootloader and recovery.
Code:
To Install on Windows 8, you may need to additionally disable driver enforcement
- From the Metro Start Screen, open Settings (move your mouse to the bottom-right-corner of the screen and wait for the - -- pop-out bar to appear, then click the Gear icon).
- Click ‘More PC Settings’.
- Click ‘General’.
- Scroll down, and click ‘Restart now’ under ‘Advanced startup’.
- Wait a bit.
- Click ‘Troubleshoot’.
- Click ‘Advanced Options’
- Click ‘Windows Startup Settings’
- Click Restart.
Once that is done, your Windows computer is configured for adb and fastboot.
In device manager, the device should show up as below, depending whether you are booted into recovery or bootloader...
Recovery - Android Device > Google Nexus 4 ADB Interface
Bootloader - Android Device > Google Nexus 4 Bootloader Interface
If it shows as something different, either you have existing drivers in the way or something went wrong.
Linux and Mac
Here is a really simple tool to install adb and fastboot on the above OS. The only expectation is you know how to open and run a terminal command. Please see the link immediately below:
Nexus Tools 2.2 (Featured by XDA) - adb and fastboot installer for Linux and Mac (by @corbin052198)
Once you have installed adb and fastboot from the above link, you're ready to go.
How to test adb and fastboot work
As previously mentioned, adb and fastboot are both command line tools. That means you must run these tools from command prompt (cmd in Windows) or Terminal (Linux and Mac).
Remember earlier, I mentioned that fastboot can only be used in bootloader? and adb can only be used in Android (or custom recovery - lets cover that later)? We can use the command "fastboot devices" and "adb devices to see if we have adb and fastboot working correctly.
Lets try it.
Boot your phone into android
Connect it to your computer via USB
Open cmd (start > type "cmd" on Windows) or Terminal (Mac/ Linux
Type in the windows "adb devices" and press enter
Here is what we don't want to see:
Notice how there is nothing underneath where it says "List of attached devices" That means it cannot see any device
Here is what we DO want to see:
We can see that there is now a device listed.
OK lets test fastboot. Unplug the USB and turn off the phone. When it is off, hold down Volume down + power until you feel the vibrate. You will now be in the bootloader. Reconnect the USB cable.
In the same window (cmd or terminal) we're going to now type "fastboot devices".
Again, here is an example of what we don't and do want to see:
If in both modes, you can see your devices "Serial Number", then you know they are both working.
Please note that if you cannot get adb and fastboot to work "system wide", you can open the command prompt to the location of the adb and fastboot executables exist and try from there.
OK Gimme some useful fastboot commands please!
Here are some of the most useful fastboot commands you will come across. Fastboot is used mostly for flashing images to the devices partitions on the internal memory.
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
This unlocks your bootloader and allows you to flash a recovery to root. WARNING, this will wipe your device. Rooting the N6 is essentially unlocking the bootloader, flashing a recovery and then putting the SuperSU zip on your sdcard and flashing it via the recovery. This thread covers rooting: [HOW-TO] The Nexus 6 All-In-One Beginner's Guide by @xBeerdroiDx
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
This will flash a recovery.img to the recovery partition. The command is broken down into "fastboot flash" (what to do) "recovery" (where to flash to) "recovery.img" what to flash there. In the terminal or command prompt, you cannot just type "recovery.img" though. It has to be the path to where the recovery image is. For example, if my recovery image is on my desktop, I would have to type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery c:\users\rootsu\desktop\recovery.img
It is worth noting, that it IS case sensitive, meaning if your file is called Recovery.img, you must type the capital R...
Other things you would flash:
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
These will flash the system image (ROM) and boot image (kernel) as you would if you were returning to stock.
A full guide to returning to stock can be found here: [TUTORIAL][GUIDE][HOW TO] Flash Factory Images || Unroot || Relock bootloader by @Mr hOaX
You can also boot into a recovery.img without flashing it...
Code:
fastboot boot c:\users\rootsu\desktop\recovery.img
which is "fastboot boot" (what to do) "c:\users\rootsu\desktop\recovery.img" what to do it with. As you may have noticed, we did not define the recovery partition in this command, that's because we're not flashing it....
OK Gimme some useful adb commands please!
At the moment, we are going to assume you have a custom recovery and you have booted into recovery. The reason for this is using adb in recovery can be much simpler.
Here are some useful scenarios for using adb.
Backup your sdcard to your PC
Code:
adb shell
mount data
exit
adb pull data/media/0 c:\MyBackup
**Please note, some recoveries may "mount data" automatically on boot, so don't be disheartened if you get an error stating device or resource busy. This probably just means you can't mount what is already mounted**
/data/media/0 is the real location of /sdcard for your information. Also referred to as "The mount point". What we have done here is "adb pull" (what to do) "data/media/0" (what to move) "c:\MyBackup" (where to move it to)
Push a zip file from your PC to your sdcard (useful if you wiped your sdcard and rom)
Code:
adb shell
mount data
exit
adb push c:\rom.zip data/media/0
What we have done here is "adb push" (what to do) "c:\rom.zip" (what to move) "data/media/0" (where to move it to)
You can of course also use adb to push and pull files to and from /system too. You just need to:
Code:
adb shell
mount system
exit
I mentioned earlier that using custom recovery is much easier for adb than whilst booted into Android. You need to ensure you have a kernel that allows insecure adb before you do anything with system and data partitions. You also need to ensure that USB debugging has been enabled in developer options.
For example, to mount system to pull files whilst android is running you have to:
Code:
adb root
adb shell
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system /system
...which is clearly a little bit more involved, so I recommend you use recovery for adb push and pull. You can find more detailed information on adb here: http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html
A little more about using Windows command prompt
One thing to understand is that like Windows, command prompt (cmd.exe) works with directories (or folders if you like). The Linux and Mac terminals are the same, but most linux users, we expect you would already know this.
Here you will see I have downloaded a recovery image that I want to flash using fastboot.
As you can see, the recovery.img is located in C:\users\rootSU\Desktop
Usually when you open the command prompt from the start menu, or run command, the command prompt will default to your user location as seen below:
So lets try and fastboot flash recovery recovery.img...
It fails with a not-too-accurate error message. It has failed because you have not told it where the recovery image is. It assumes it is in the directory as listed in the prompt
So, how do we deal with this? Well, there are 3 ways.
1) We tell the command prompt where the recovery.img actully is in the command itself
Success! As you can see, we have told the command that the location for the file is Desktop\recovery.img
2) We can change the directory in command prompt to the directory where the file is. In this example, we change directory to "Desktop". The change directory command is "cd " or in this case "cd Desktop"
3) ...and possibly the simplest method. We hold shift whilst we right-click on the folder we want to change directory to, and directly open a command prompt there:
Another point to make with command prompt or terminals, is if you do a particular command, it is "pre-programmed" to "expect" a particular format of that command.
For example, we know that adb push as a command expects after it . This means the command is actually
Code:
adb push
BUT if you put something AFTER , for example -
Code:
adb push somethingelse
, it will assume that the "somethingelse" is a bad parameter, and the command will fail. It will probably display (or "print" which is the technical term in a terminal) a helpful guide of how the command should be used instead of trying to run the command which it does not understand.
You're probably wondering why I am telling you this. Well quite simply, it is a warning about folder names. Imagine you have c:\users\rootSU\My Documents as a folder. You assume the command is then
Code:
adb pull /data/media/0 c:\users\rootSU\My Documents
but it is not... There is a space in between My and Documents. What you have actually done is
Code:
adb pull Documents
because it uses a space to signify the end of a command or parameter. It is best to avoid using folders with spaces in them. Avoid as much as you can. In the event it is unavoidable (Although when is it ever>) then please surround the path with quotation marks,
Code:
adb pull /data/media/0 "c:\users\rootSU\My Documents"
so that way, it sees everything between the " " as a single parameter.
Myth Busters
Myth 1: You need USB debugging on to use adb and fastboot
If you cannot boot into Android, it doesn't matter. You DO NOT need USB Debugging turned on to use adb outside of android. USB Debugging is an Android ONLY setting. Fastboot obviously also does not need debugging either as this too is outside of Android
Myth 2: to adb push or fastboot flash files, they must be in the same folder as adb or fastboot executables. Sorry but this is rubbish. You can pass the full path of the image you're flashing or file you're pushing in the command and fastboot / adb can be called system wide if you've set them as an environment variable or used the 15 second installer

Good guide. Needs to be a sticky. In fact, I think every device general forum should have a sticky like this. Would have saved me a lot of grief back when....
Excellent update.
Very good to see. I'm sure lots of people will be sending noobs here for the basics.
Up to your usual helpful, good work I see.
rootSU said:
This tool asks if you want to install adb and fastboot (to which you should answer Y) and then creates c:\adb\adb.exe and c:\adb\fastboot.exe
It then asks if you want to install it system wide (to which again, you should answer Y)... This then allows you to type adb commands in the command prompt without having to open a particular directory first. You may or may not understand what I mean when I say that, but take it from me, its much more convenient and easier to use this way.

Y option = System-wide = install to "C:\adb" and add path for system variable - This mean you can use it by any account on your pc.
N option = Current user only = install to "C:\Users\[YOUR USERNAME]\adb" and add path for user only - Only user account used for installation can actually use it.
So if you say Y or N you will be still able to use it from any directory with cmd.

Thanks for the info. I thought system wide meant it was putting it as a path environment variable. Reason I didmt use the drivers from your tool originally is (well I wrote this thread for N5 originally) they didnt work so had to install the universal naked driver. But if yours are the same as the ones linked, I can update that.

Sooo I need a little help here. I followed the directions to unlock the bootloader and everything went good. I did the CF auto-root, and the phone booted back up as normal. Now, I was trying to flash the M preview, and all of a suddon now my phone isn't recognized in adb. You posted a pic of what we don't want to see when testing for adb, but you don't say how to fix it if we run into the problem. Any way to get it to recognize my phone again so I can get this build on?

Android M no like root, you'll either have to live with stock or wait for chainfire to do his thing.
This all worked well until I had to find my device in the cmd prompt. It listed no devices when I typed in "ADB Devices". The issue I found was with the ADB Interface Driver. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it thinking it might've been a driver issue, but it still wouldn't work. I tried the "Uninstall driver" then "scan for hardware changes" but that didn't work. Finally I found the universal ADB driver and tried using that. STILL nothing. I figured that, because I don't have my device's driver installed, it might've been that, so I tried to DL it and yet again, nothing. I have a Kyocera Hydro Life, if that helps. Also, I tried looking through the "update driver manually" in order to update the driver software by looking through the different ADB interfaces that it had but my Kyocera driver wasn't there. Is it supposed to be there or do I just use one of the ones provided?
I checked my programs and apps and it says that the Kyocera usb driver was installed. Did I do something wrong?

Try a different USB port. If that doesn't work try a different USB cable. If that also doesn't work, you could try disabling driver signature checking for Windows.

@ScottyChaos,
Just a fundamental question: I assume you have enabled "Developer Options" in Settings, and then checked "enable USB debugging"?

Here is a thread that you might find interesting > http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/metro-pcs-kyocera-hydro-life-rooted-t2870678
Windows 10 device driver management is even more locked down then windows 8. I got two of the three drivers loaded but when going into adb mode on the phone through recovery it just disappeared out of the device manager. I had to unplug and plug in while in that mode to trigger a unloaded driver in the device manager. Once there I had to force the adb driver manually with the nasty windows driver warning and all. Once I did that I could see the device in adb mode and sideload my marshmallow OTA. woot!
I decided to drop a thanks bomb...
ADB is good.
But that fastboot.
Seriously, its ONE command. OK, a few different arguments to use.... But it is so easy, and so powerful. People are afraid to mess up on command line, but its actually way harder to type the wrong thing out then to click the wrong thing.
LEARN IT. Forget your toolkit.
You can fix almost anything, Its not too hard for you. It may be new... YOU CAN DO IT.
Also, I have to say it... Its not going to help anyone, but it will keep me from punching something. ADB and Fastboot... Not the same. You don't ADB a new system image....

ADB: Device Not Found

ADB Question
If you have downloaded all of the required software and when you do the command “adb devices”, it does not show that the phone is recognized even though you can access it through my computer through the file system.
What can be done?
