Hey Guys,
I Clockwork3'd my Aria, but I wanted to update my sources (thread 730398) so I can get non market apps. When I follow the instructions in that post I get an error:
Code:
./adb remount
remount failed: operation not permitted
'adb devices' does show my Aria's SN, I'm su'd and I'm running in debug mode. I also chowned everything in the android sdk tools and its subdirectories.
Here's the question -
In searching, I found (thread 614645) that suggested ro.secure wasn't set properly, and sure enough if I do:
Code:
./adb shell
$ getprop ro.secure
1
$
Shouldn't applying clockwork have set that properly? Would the instructions at (thread 8041739 post 9 ) be the right steps to resolve this on an Aria?
Thanks!
PS - sorry I can't post direct links.
if you have all the drivers installed, it should work...
which OS are you using?? (Mac, Win7, etc)
dont rund SDK command in Clockwork, with phone on connect data cable and select "charge only" when asked.
the ./ command is used for Linux i think, i never got that command to work either. just go to the folder where SDK/Tools is located in CMD prompt or Terminal(depending on the OS) and run the following command:
adb remount
hope this helps a bit
I had a lot of issues with driver installs on Windows 7, so I'm doing this on a netbook with Ubuntu netbook remix. Also tried the reflash CD, similar issue.
Right, so with Ubuntu, and the cable my phone came with (have tried a few others just in case)
1. phone on and operational
2. plug in to laptop
3. phone gives happy USB connected and Charge Only notifications
4. fire up terminal window, and su
5. type ./adb remount
and I get the error above. If I do kill-server to refresh it, I get the demon starting successfully on port 5037.
Yeah, I was hoping I'd just missed something stupid. Should I need to modify the boot.img file outside of what Clockwork did?
My symptoms match those described in thread 685146 post #3, however, I've only applied Clockwork (which seems to work) not done anything else funky.
I have my windows 7 machine at the same point now -
adb remount gives 'remount failed: operation not permitted'
and
getprop ro.secure at the adb shell returns 1.
I think this means there's something wrong on the phone, if both machines act the same.
One other data point, I noticed the new Superuser Permissions app that installing clockwork gave me is asking to give superuser permissions to /system/bin/sh when I try to run the adb shell, but it doesn't trigger that when I do the adb remount.
Not sure what this means, any ideas most welcome - TIA!
steps here fixed it, thanks - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=730398
Hello,
I install z4mod, and I patch kernal, and it's fine, after that I don't what I do , I do convert to filesystem, after that open till galaxy s come the shutdown.
I use froyo 2.2
please help me?
I can not open phone in download mode or recovery by using 3 buttons.
All I can say is that if you cannot access download mode you're in trouble. :/
so what can I do,
any idea
If you can't get into download mode you may have bricked your phone, the only way to fix it is to make a homemade jig or put your phone in the oven. I'm not sure what your preference may be...
EDIT: In future please do not post in this section just to get your thread more attention .
I use
Z4mod over in I9000 converts data to ext2
and it's not open download mode from begening when it normal mode,
any news,,,,

yeah, not with the oven
but the trick with the hair blower works and also just recently has rescued another unfortunate soul (not me)
Isn't it possible to get into download mode by adb? I did it a few times, but i can find the tutorial only on a german forum called android-hilfe.de.
It worked for me a few times:
1: Install Kies (probably you did already)
2. install adb for windows ( don't know where to get it, sorry)
3. install odin 1.3
4. open command line and navigate to adb folder
5. start odin
6. place command line-window and odin window so, that you can see both.
7. write in command line: "adb reboot download" and press enter ( starts daemon)
8. remove battery
9. connect the phone to pc using usb cable
10. put the battery in the phone again
11. write in command line: "adb reboot download", DO NOT PRESS ENTER
12. wait until it shows the battery symbol on your phone, indicating that its loading. press power button
13. now look at odin. when the Com-Port becomes yellow, press the enter button in command line, where you wrote "adb reboot download" before.
Now you are in DL-Mode.
Hope it works and someone maybe can give you a better written tutorial with a link to adb. Like i said, it worked for me.

please help, my head was broken, from morning I research,
Well firstly your original post is very confusing.
Im assuming english isn't your first tongue, if not plz use something like google translate which might do a better job.
Is ur situation that you want to flash something and don't know how ? Or you flashed something and can't boot into the os and have neither download mode / recovery mode at ur dispense ?
I assume you are saying that now when you are switching on your phone you are not getting startup screen of I9000 and you are getting a small icon showing broken connection with phone and PC.
If this is the case, you can try doing following trick
1. switch off phone and remove battery
2. Plug your USB with phone and PC
3. Start ODIN V3
4. Now press vol down + menu (Centre button) and power on
5. Insert your battery
6. If Odin will show your phone connected you are safe
7. if not try it again (do it 10 times)
Once Odin will detect your phone...flash any stock ROM from forum.
If unfortunately this does not work, then use hot-blower option.
1. Switch off your phone take out battery
2. use hot blower (hair dryer or something else) on the part where battery is placed.
3. Heat till the time you can tolerate...dont worry nothing will happen to Galaxy
4. Now press vol down + menu (Centre button) and power on
5. Insert your battery
6. Your phone should show yellow screen of downloading
Above trick seems insane but believe me it saved me (Thank God)
Galaxy S can not be unbricked (at least easily by any RM) I have faced this situation many times and come over it.
Let me know how it goes.
Before all of these I install OneClickLagFix v2.2, but I got same problem, and I use adbRecovery and I solve the problem.
First I install z4root and i root my device, then I install z4mod and I patch device kernel, after that, I choose converts data to filesystem, then the device rebooted automatically, until show logo GALAXY S, then the screen come black and vibrate allways,
The problem also when I connect it to USB my computer does not get the device,
But in the problem I have it now the adbRecovery not do any thing
Oh you are safe then...
Press vol up + menu + power button
once it shows Samsung logo leave the power button but keep pressing menu + vol up. After 4 seconds leave these button also.
Your phone should go to recovery mode.. then flash any rom..
If this does not work then use below:
1. switch off phone and remove battery
2. Plug your USB with phone and PC
3. Start ODIN V3
4. Now press vol down + menu (Centre button) and power on
5. Insert your battery
6. If Odin will show your phone connected you are safe
7. if not try it again (do it 10 times)
Once Odin will detect your phone...flash any stock ROM from forum.

OK, I am trying to root my Nexus 4. What follows is a pretty comprehensive description of what I've done but the TL;DR version is that I managed to unlock my nexus4 using fastboot oem unlock -- but now fastboot and adb are very consistently (across different computers and different cables) not picking up my nexus4 anymore. I did check out MTP mounting, and that's successful. It could be that I'm misunderstanding something, but this is getting kind of frustrating. I have been using information from three or four different tutorials here on xda. So anyway, here's the grisly details:
I am running Ubuntu 12.04 (32 bit on my laptop, 64 bit on my desktop).
Now, on the LAPTOP:
Firstly I powered up my N4 (vol down + power) to get the LOCK STATE - locked information. I connected to the laptop via USB port with the cable supplied with the N4.
I went to the adt.../sdk/platform-tools (from unpacking the ADT bundle archive) directory on my laptop.
Code:
[email protected] $ sudo ./fastboot devices
this gave me a string of numbers followed by fastboot in response. [Note that this is the one and only and ever time I sucessfully listed the N4.] So far so good. Then
Code:
[email protected] $ sudo ./fastboot oem unlock
...
Again so far so good. After answering yes to the unlock question on the N4, the N4 now shows LOCKED STATE - unlocked.
Now here is where it got weird. I wanted to start up adb, so
Code:
adb devices
daemon not running, starting on 5037
list of devices attached
... and no devices. Repeated with sudo, no difference (except daemon already running. Huh.
The above is from my written notes. More detail below on the desktop as I've got all this in another window here.
That was yesterday. So then I checked with my desktop today. This is what's on my desktop:
Code:
[email protected]:~$ uname -a
Linux desktop 3.2.0-35-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 5 17:42:16 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I downloaded the ADT Bundle. (I notice that despite checking the 32 bit on download, it seems to have given me the 64 bit version. Hm...)
Code:
[email protected]:~/SDK/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools$ ls
aapt aidl dexdump fastboot llvm-rs-cc renderscript
adb api dx lib NOTICE.txt source.properties
[email protected]:~/SDK/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools$ sudo ./adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
[email protected]:~/SDK/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools$ sudo ./adb devices
List of devices attached
I changed the USB cable and repeated, same results. Is it the N4?
This computer wasn't set up with MTP, so I did that quickly:
Code:
[email protected]:~$ cd /etc/udev/rules.d/
[email protected]:/etc/udev/rules.d$ sudo vi 51-android.rules
[sudo] password for digitalramble:
[email protected]:/etc/udev/rules.d$ more 51-android.rules
# nexus 7
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, ATTR{idVendor}==”18d1”, ATTR{idProduct}==”4e41”, MODE=”0666”,

# nexus 4
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, ATTR{idVendor}==”1004”, MODE=”0666”, OWNER=”digitalramble”
[email protected]:/etc/udev/rules.d$ sudo service udev restart
udev stop/waiting
udev start/running, process 6945
And then installed the mtp software
Code:
[email protected]:~/$ sudo apt-get install mtp-tools mtpfs
[email protected]:~/SDK/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools$ sudo mkdir /media/nexus4
digit[email protected]:~/SDK/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools$ sudo chmod 755 /media/nexus4
[email protected]:~/SDK/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools$ sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/nexus4
[email protected]:~/SDK/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools$ ls /media/nexus4
Alarms DCIM Movies Notifications Playlists Ringtones

[email protected]:~/SDK/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools$
So I can't figure out why fastboot or adb won't list my N4? I've swapped out computers, cables, everything but the N4 itself. Yet, the N4 is working otherwise normally (it's doing what I expect on the screen, it can be listed via MTP tools. But if fastboot won't see it, how can I proceed with fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, or or fastboot boot boot.img or whatever? I was going to try to play with adb push/pull instead but neither of them are listing the N4 when I check...
Thanks for any ideas...I'm stumped. I've tried to include all the relevant bits of information.
What state is the phone in when you are trying adb? adb only works when youre in the actual OS (or recovery) and fastboot is for bootloader commands.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "actual OS". I have the N4 plugged in, turned on, MTP media set, on the default home page with the clock and play icons, etc. I've tried to make sure it hasn't timed out or gone to sleep on the fastboot or adb commands.
It doesn't have a sim card. Is that an issue? Should still be functional, I thought.
i meant when you're booted into Android you can use adb. fastboot commands only work when youre in the bootloader
is developer mode / usb debugging enabled?

Hrm. I may be a pretty seasoned unix admin, but I actually am not up on some of the android based terminology. I literally do not know what you mean by "when you're in the bootloader" or "booted into Android". Can you explain further or point me to something (not a video, please, I'm deaf) that does? Oh -- is that the mode you're in when you power up via VolDown + Power ??
I did enable the usb debugging thing (tapping seven times on the build number) on the N4 (which is JB 4.2.1).
(as dhayman11 pointed out, "unknown sources" is in security settings, not developer options. but no luck anyway, like most of the settings app, it also crashes if you try to set it.)
instead, here is an extremely stupid idea that just came to me.
1. turn on adb wifi debugging
2. sideload your favorite terminal, e.g.
http://jackpal.github.com/Android-Terminal-Emulator/downloads/Term.apk
(ok I lied. you will need your desktop/laptop/phone/whatever, exactly 1 time. step 2 will be skipped forever after that 1 time.)
3. fire up said terminal from the settings->applications menu.
4. (LOL!)
$ adb devices
4a. if the above command shows no devices,
$ adb connect localhost
and proceed to step 5.
4b. if the command shows exactly 1 device, e.g. "emulator-5554", proceed to step 5.
4c. if the command shows more than 1 device (wtf?!) then you will need to specify a device of your choice ("-s somedevice") in every subsequent adb command, e.g.
$ adb -s emulator-5554 <whatever>
$ adb -s localhost:5555 <whatever>
etc.
5. e.g.
$ adb install /sdcard/Download/foobar.apk
$ adb shell
$ adb uninstall -k com.something.somethingelse
etc. etc.
6. profit? profit!
ok here is a slightly-less incoherent form of the senior-moment-reply I posted earlier
several days ago it occurred to me to alternatively use sshd for terminal access, because:
-a) I feel a little unsafe leaving adb wifi enabled all the time (ok it's only a small thing to turn it on and off, but still) - and for security reasons there is no way to enable/disable it programmatically e.g. from a script/shell/terminal/app (well theoretically this is not exactly true, but practically it is)
-2) some people (i.e. me) would like to do shell/terminal remotely sometimes, rather than on the AFTV (and other people don't have/want a keyboard)
ssh access makes a great alternative to Term.apk, but the problem is:
- Term.apk and/or (pick your favorite android ssh server) don't have permission to run e.g. "pm install foo.apk" - it will fail. (btw 'pm' is a great command, take a look sometime at all the options. it shares a lot of functions as the adb command itself. 'am' is another fun command...)
- so, the hilarious workaround of enabling adb wifi, "adb connect", and then finally "adb shell" or "adb install" etc., is still required. (b/c the adb user is in the 'shell' group, among others - giving it permission to run /system/bin/pm) - oh well.
for random reference:

(also note it appears the adb shell user might possibly have 'mount' abilities, but since the /dev/block/sd* nodes permissions' are really locked up, who knows...)
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!
