I dont want to install linux for this one purpose of fixing my lcd density so i downloaded a live cd of ubuntu. Is there a way to use adb on here i tried one way and i had to extract files to the usr/bin which it wouldnt do ( i think because that exists on the disc so its not able to write) any help? maybe another way for adb on linux so i can fix that build.prop?!
you could run it in terminal:
in the adb's folder, run:
Code:
./adb [your command]
hey
i got the adb running the way u said to with adb in the folder. it still dose not show my device and my phone is in debug mode also. on linux it doesn't even show my sd card.
i put in abd devices and no device is shown. any help did i miss a step here.
I kinda have the same problem, I'm new to linux, and just finished installing Ubuntu on my laptop. The first thing I was thinking whether i needed a driver to install the phone like in Windows, or is there some "device manager" like plugin to find out more details on what devices need drivers or whats installed.
on my kaiser, adb doesn't work always. reboot your android if not.
You could see it with command:
Code:
lsusb
and/or
Code:
adb devices
hey thanks dark side just got a hero and couldn't be happier except for battery life my old vogue lasted longer lol (probably all the hero HTC stuff). But thanks for actually giving advice about the adb! no one else seemed to it drove me to get a hero! The sense ui is really great i didn't think i would like it because of how it felt on vogue. but actually its a really good thing. That sense ui from jamezelle is insane. its almost like it but after u leave an app it dose not loads again. if he some how gets that fixed it will be close to the hero. anyway everyone thanks for letting me experience android (dzo plemen, jamezelle and zen i tired your builds so this is to you). You helped with my decision to get a hero. Best phone i have ever owned! also to help anyone i think that if u plug your phone into windows 7 and then windows xp it can mess up your adb with the vogue that what happened to me... it let me see the files in windows 7 but after i hooked up to xp both became unable to use!
so im new to the android phone scene i have had blackberry for 5 years noe and decided to try out the new HTC Evo. but im sooo lost with thing, help!!! please
first off my phone is running the newest software 1.47.651.1
im trying to root the phone but to do so all instructions ive found require using adb. what is this adb? and what is adb shell?
when i plug my phone to my computer it says the adb is not set up and it ask for the driver disk, phone didnt come with this.
also im running vista 32 on my laptop if it makes a difference.
any help with getting this done or where to find info would be great!!
adb is apart of the android SDK package which is required for transfer from computer to phone. google "android SDK" and download + install
you need it in order to transfer the files required for rooting to your phone so i suggest reading the instructions so you know what your doing
Need SDK
Android SDK can be downloaded at the following address:
http://developer.android.com/sdk / index.html
Once downloaded extract the folder to one of the PATH for example E: \ android_sdk_windows
i have tried in win xp and 7.
how to install SDK

Hi all,
I have downloaded Android SDK and the Eclipse plugin under my Win7 Ult.
The problem that I am facing is that Eclipse is unable to deploy any app that I create. I have tried the same under Ubuntu and it was working fine.
After couple of hours of inspection I noticed that the adb doesn't recognize my emulator when running my app using Eclipse.
After closing eclipse and killing all the related SDK tools I started the adb process then started the emulator. Still the adb doesn't recognize my AVDs that are running through the emulator.
Now when I first run the emulator and then start the adb process then adb would recognize the emulator.
So did anyone faced the same problem??
Any help appreciated
I'm having the exact same problem.
Downloaded Eclipse. the sdk. avds. and everything else. have read every single other thread about this issue that is online. I'ts been 5 hours trying to find a solution.
is there an area in the preferences that specifically dictates app to avd transfer options? there has to be!
so what is it please?
any help appreciated.
Hi all,
I have a Macbook Pro currently setup for Android Development. Eclipse works just fine, the SDK seems to be installed correctly, and I can load up the AVD emulator just fine for testing applications.
However, when I try to plug in my EVO into my laptop, I cannot get the EVO to be recognized by ADB. I've made sure the phone is setup for USB Debugging, placing it in Disk Mode/Charge Only, tried a few ADB commands in terminal (./adb kill-server, ./adb start-server, ./adb usb) but nothing works - it just doesn't see my EVO.
I'm currently running Myn's WarmTwoPointTwo on my EVO with netarchy's kernel. On the Mac, it's the newest version of Snow Leopard with Eclipse Classic 3.6.2 with all the newest updates to the SDK.
Thanks for your help.
I had this exact thing happen to me, but on a Windows box. I had rooted a ton of EVO's, pushed files via ADB, etc. One day it stopped working. Nothing had changed, I hadn't even rebooted, the laptop had just gone to sleep. Did all the normal troubleshooting, etc.
I ended up starting an install of PDANet, which re-installed ADB, and it's worked fine since. Not sure if that's an option for Macs. The last Mac I used was one of those ones that looked like a colored TV
I've done a fresh reinstall of Eclipse, the SDK, and tried your PDANet install as well and it doesn't work with my EVO or with any other Android phone I plug into my computer.
I had the same problem earlier today too. I ended up just using adb wireless to connect my evo to adb so that's a fix you can try using too.

Whenever I use ADB, I boot the phone into recovery, then run ADB shell from there. It's the only way I've ever been able to run it. Might be worth trying.
So running into a problem. I have downloaded and installed ADB but the version installed is 1.0.32. And my computer doesn't find any devices when I type adb devices.
Is this because I need a later version of ADB and if so any clue how to install it on Ubuntu? I have searched the WEB and can't find it.
Cheers!

Thanks DrakenFX for trying. I had already looked at that one. I looked some more and I guess Ubuntu has been having some problems with MTP. The answer for the problem is found at HERE if anyone is running into the same issue.
I use linux as well, but instead of installing the whole Android development kit, I went for the leaner, no-install-required platform-tools, which is the linux equivalent of "Minimal ADB and Fastboot". You can download it directly from Google here: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools_r23.0.1-linux.zip
Unzip it, open up a terminal in the folder, and type " ./adb devices "

adb devices on ubuntu 16.04

Just to document this in case it would benefit someone else: I have been trying everything I could find on the net to get my A7 recognized by adb devices. The list always came up empty. Yet, on my windows 10, adb devices for my A7 worked. And my htc m7 on ubuntu was also recognized. Finally, I removed the famous 51-android.rules (which had a line for my A7 but not for my m7; on /etc/udev/rules.d) and then adb devices showed the A7.
EDIT:
The day after having written this, I lost the device again: adb devices no longer showed the A7. Again tried everything with no success. Then I downloaded the Android SDK, which comes with version 1.0.39 of adb. Ran that and it worked. Go figure. So I still cannot really put my finger on what made the difference.
