Do I need to root my phone to get my MSL via "Adb shell getprop"?
Cause if not, all I'm getting is "Toolbox!" after I type that. I don't know what that means. If I do need root, then my bad.

Has anybody tried this? having Lynx accessible via adb shell would be - imo - very handy. For example, my work terminal has no internet access, but I can install the USB driver for my Galaxy S and access the shell that way.
Of course, since I'm not allowed to play with my phone while working, it would be very nifty to open up a cmd window and just type "adb shell lynx" and have at it if I need to.
Has anybody tried this? I'm no coder by any stretch of the imagination, otherwise I'd be having a go at it now..
Alright, Im having an issue when using adb shell. Anytime i run an adb shell whether during normal operation, recovery, or bootloader the shell only allows me to run one command then refuses anything after. Even if i just su it will not respond to any other commands. It does not disconnect me or say device not found or return any type of error, just sits there waiting. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
also just realised if i try to run an adb backup it opens up the backup screen on my device and when i click backup my data it shows it is backing up but nothing gets pushed to my computer.
So no one has any ideas?
I am having an issue with ADB and rooting my n4 as above When i do"ADB reboot bootloader" I get Emulator-5554 offline and error: more than one device and emulator.
And I cant cant do anything. I have tried adb kill-server didn't work, a lot of people say it is bluestacks and to just end the process (I dont seem to have that installed with the android sdk I got). I have tried connecting it to port 5555 like people have said. Im lost now, any help

Hi there,
I have spent a couple hours trying to figure this out and just can't seem to figure out what to do any further!
I have a rooted Galaxy S4 with CWM 6.0.4.4 and Cyanogenmod 11 with developer debugging options enabled.
I cannot see anything on my phone screen as it is broken, nor touch anything so I cannot authorize the ADB connection from my computer. When I try to look at the connected device in command prompt, it says "0999d838 unauthorized". I assume it is unauthorized because I cannot accept my computer's connection. Therefore I cannot access adb shell and use other commands to pull the files I want.. When I try to "adb kill-server" and restart, it says my
"device unauthorized.
This adbd's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set; try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong.
Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device."
Is there anyway to work around this? I have searched and the best answer I have found was that I should be able to access my ADB interface without authorization through recovery mode. I can access Download Mode and Odin.
Thanks

You cannot just access your phone without authorization. Use this thread as a reference.

Maybe you can ask the guy if he figured it out. Basically you have to flash a kernel with these parameters for adb to work without authorization.
ro.secure=0
ro.debuggable=1
ro.adb.secure=0
Afternoon -
I am looking to enable ADB on my Inseego. I can get to fastboot, and flashing is unlocked but I can't determine a means of enabling ADB on the device to extract the partitions to be able to flash.
On Netgear's for example, you can enable ADB via AT commands, but there isn't the same ability here as far as I can tell.
Figured it out
Would you mind posting your solution?
Does adb give you full root and AT command access?
Yes, the Inseegos use sneaky ways to enable the ADB interface.
I have a MiFi 8800L and it enables multiple interfaces through an HID command.
Do you have an HID interface showing on this?
Nope, if you could walk me through the steps that would be incredible!
Could you please post the solution?
