So I'm trying to root my G2 on my mac. I've installed the sdk but when I go to run the android tool I get an error message in my command line. Is anyone else experiencing this?
I rooted using my mac, use the Android SDK often and may be able to help here.
What guide are you using, and what android tool are you referring to?
when I open terminal and run the "android" file from the sdk and instead of launching the sdk manager I get an error in terminal saying "cannot find sdkmanager.jar"

i have downloaded the android sdk for the saphire and am having trouble in the command prompt with the given command. the wiki says to put adb and it should run smoothly but this is not working for me.
I saved the .zip file in a new folder at C:\androidSDK and it is still not working.
Can anyone help me PLZ!?!
I am following this guide here, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1413313 but when i type the command
"sh android-sdk-linux_86/tools/ddms"
it says it can't open the file. Any help would be great. Thanks
btw i am already unlocked and rooted so i just need to do steps 2 and 5
does the file exist?
ddms is part of the android sdk. i'm assuming you have installed the linux version of the sdk and know where the tools directory for the installation is?
i don't think you are even required to run this step anyway:
Code:
Now, for example, if you plug in the phone and run
$ sh android-sdk-linux_86/tools/ddms
[b]you will see the phone listed. (Note: this is not a step in the howto) [/b]
-verify the file exists at the location specified
-make sure it is executable to the current user (chmod +x)
or post the exact error message here
Yep the file is there and in the right place but when i type it it tells me "Can't open android-sdk-linux_86/tools/ddms"
Anyone...all i need is to get ubuntu to recognize my phone when i plug it in...
Hmm, seems a little odd. If you type the same command but replace the "sh" with "ls -l" what comes back? Plus, what user are you logged in as?

I got it working yesterday, not sure what i did but ubuntu recognizes my phone now.
Anyone installed 2.3 sdk yet?
I did and when I try to run ddms it does not find adp or something.
What do i do
Did You mean 'adb' ?
I've updated sdk via SDK Manager and from then on Eclipse is complaining about missing 'adb'. Solution was to update Eclipse plugin via Help->"Check for Updates".
I got bitten by this too. adb has moved from C:\android-sdk-windows\tools to C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools. Add the latter to your path and it fixes it.
hi guys im getting anoyed with my pc and phone now ive followed so meany tutorial etc on how to install adb but still not getting any where so far i have done
1. downloaded sdk from code.google.com
2. extracted to c:/android-sdk-windows
3.installed htc wildfire drivers
4.created a path on enviromentable variuble
5.ive loaded the skd.exe
6. ran cmd and ran adb and adb devices but my pc will not reconise this command any adice please thanks
ps ive also tryed using qtaADB it connect to the phone but dnt show any thing frustrated now lol thanks daddyspud
First download adb for windows from " http://developer.android.com/sdk/ ".
then u will get a file named " android-sdk_r08-windows ".rename it as "Android SDK" after extracting.
download proper driver for your phone and install them .now move "Android SDK" to root of hard drive that is to c\Android SDK...
now update the adb using SDK manager that is inside Android SDK.all packeges even usb drivers.
connect the phone via usb and windows should recognize it as android phone .
now take "cmd".command prompt and type the following code .
cd\
cd Android SDK\tools\
adb devices
Now Adb is set if it shows your phone code ..
Sorry about my english .
I had a hardtime making my computer recognize my wildfire, I had to manipulate the driver to make it find it. just google it and you shall find .. if thats the problem ..
thanks worked a dream cheers buddie
They changed the location of the adb.exe file with the new SDK release using the example given would be :-
cd\
cd Android SDK\platform-tools\
easier in my opinion to add to path in windows
c:\android sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe
make sure u add java.exe to path aswell
Hope this helps

Well what do you want to do with adb?
run the sdk but i get errors when i start it "error 2" cant find file.
Failed to get the adb version.
Edit - Never mind i have sorted it.
I have read every post I can find pertaining to setting up ADB. On the first try, I was able to get my computer to recognize the device as an Android Phone with Android ADB Interface. However, whenever I try to execute an admin command prompt I get the following error:
'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.. I haven't done command prompts in 20 years (back when that was the only way to get the computer to do anything). It is probably a syntax error but I can't figure it out. I know how to change directories. Do I need the Android SDK and the Java JDK installed? I currently have a rooted Nook Tablet and all I want to do is sideload a few apps on this HD+, I'd rather not root until we get all the 'bugs' worked out. Thanks in advance.

Go to my HD+ tips thread linked in my signature. There is a file attached there, adb.rar. Download and extract that. There should be three files there. Put them in the folder on your PC where you want to run adb. That error you discussed is that it could not find those adb files in the folder you were running in.
