This Guide is for windows only. If you are using Mac OS X please go here: ADB For Dummies
If you are using Linux please go here: [HOW-TO]Set up Android SDK/ADB/Fastboot on Ubuntu Linux
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Things you need:
Android SDK - Download
Winrar - Download (32bit) Download (64bit)
Windows PC
USB Cable
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Setting up the Android SDK
Download the file from above
Unzip to your desktop
Take the "android-sdk-windows" folder and move it to the root of your hard drive (C:\)
Right click on My Computer and click properties
Select the Advanced Tab or Advanced System Setting (Vista/Windows 7)
Select Environment Variables...
Press New
For Variable Name type: adb
For Variable Value type: C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
Now, [Get new sdk (1.5r3) to work]
1. Run SDK Setup.exe
2. If it gives you an error go to settings and click on "Force http//....."
3. Select all options and let it download and install
If you cant get the setup to work, Download the USB-DRIVERS folder - HERE (Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Preparing your phone for ADB
Go to Settings on your phone
Select Applications
Select Development
Make sure 'USB Debugging' is checked
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installing Drivers
Plug in your phone through USB and DO NOT MOUNT IT!!!!!
Your computer should see a new device and try to install Android 1.0 driver (If it doesnt, scroll down to the "Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB" section)
Let it load
Once it cant find them select "Install drivers from my pc"
The drivers you need are in the Android SDK 1.5r2 folder (C:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver)
Depending on your OS pick x86 or amd64
You ADB Android Device should now be installed! Good Job
For Android SDK 1.5r3+
1. Run SDK Setup.exe
2. If it gives you an error go to settings and click on "Force http//....."
3. Select all options and let it download and install
If you cant get the setup to work, Download the USB-DRIVERS folder - HERE (Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Check if your phone is detected by ADB
Open up Command Prompt (Go to run, type in cmd, press enter)
Type in
Code:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools === Press Enter
adb devices === You should see your device listed
adb shell === you should see # in the next line
Now you are all set to run adb commands
Note: for a list of commands type in 'adb' in cmd
CONGRATS YOU NOW HAVE ADB FULLY RUNNING!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB"
Why: Your computer has detected your phone but as a protable device and as a storage device.
Fix: This took me a lot of research and time to figure out so this is what your are going to do.
First download USBDeview - Here
Unzip it
Run USBDeview.exe as Administrator
You will see all drivers being used on your computer
Highlight and Uninstall all drivers with the description have HTC Android (Should be 3 of them)
Right Click on the driver and press uninstall
Once done, Unplug your phone and plug it back in
You should now get the notification of the ADB device
Follow the steps above to install the drivers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Typing just adb in cmd you will get whats called a "usage doc" which gives you a lits of commands that you can use:
Code:
-d - directs command to the only connected USB devic
e
returns an error if more than one USB device is
present.
-e - directs command to the only running emulator.
returns an error if more than one emulator is r
unning.

ith
the given serial number
-p <product name or path> - simple product name like 'sooner', or
a relative/absolute path to a product
out directory like 'out/target/product/sooner'.
If -p is not specified, the ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT
environment variable is used, which must
be an absolute path.
devices - list all connected devices
device commands:

l it
('-l' means forward-lock the app)
('-r' means reinstall the app, keeping its data
)

pdated.
- If it is "system" or "data", only the corresponding partition
is updated.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okej I will try it out..

I can´t install Calculator.apk or the modified youtube.apk (High quality set as default) on my X10i????

for the calculator(is it a system apk) ? if yes then you have to push it to /system/app, if not try installing after signing it.
For youtube.apk i am sure it is a system apk and you need to push it to system/app

looking at the screen shot you gave i am sure you haven't pushed it to sdcard .
it should be
Code:
adb push "the path where you have the apk" /sdcard/YouTube.apk
unless you have copied it to android-sdk folder.
And it seems it didn't mount the system to r/w .
Try these:
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
adb push "the path where you have the apk" /sdcard/YouTube.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/YouTube.apk of=/system/app/YouTube.apk

Then...

note the space between the /mtdblock2 and /system...[you typed it without the space the first time]...
now check with the mount command...
Code:
# mount
there should be a few lines of output check for this one...
Code:
/dev/block/mtdblock2 /system yaffs2 rw 0 0
Note the "rw".... it indicates your fs is mounted now as read-write if it is "ro" [read only] then you made a mistake somewhere along the line...
if it is mounted succesfully as rw... then try this...

Velocity Cruz Tablet Bloatware Removal (ADB Method)

How to Remove Bloatware from the Velocity Cruz Tablet
Downloads and Setup
Unfortunately, I can't post links in the forum (yet!). For the links to these sources, check out my post with the same title on the Slatedroid Forum...If someone with link posting privileges would be willing to add the links below, I would greatly appreciate it.
1] Download and install the ADB drivers on your device from the Velocity Micro support site. Detailed instructions are available on their site.
2] Download and install the Android SDK on your computer.
3] Connect your Tablet to your computer via the USB cable and mount the device
4] Open your SDK directory on your desktop computer and navigate to the tools directory
5] Write down or copy the directory path to this tools directory (you will use it again below!)
Remove the Bloat
6] For Windows users, select Run from your Start menu
7] Type cmd.exe in the text field and click ok
8] At the command line, use the following series of commands:
cd C:\xxx\android-sdk-windows\tools (where the xxx is the path to your SDK directory)
adb shell (you should see a # sign after this)
cd /system/app (this changes your directory to the app directory on the Tablet where the apk's are located)
ls (optional: will allow you to view all of the apk's that are installed so that you know what to remove)
mount -o remount,rw /system (provide yourself with write permission on the system directory to remove files)
Then for each of the apk files that you want to remove, type:
rm /system/app/filename.apk (replace filename with the actual name of the file)
You can change the system directory permission back to read only with the following command if you would like:
mount -o remount,r /system
Copy and Paste
>cd C:\xxx\android-sdk-windows\tools
>adb shell
# cd /system/app
#ls
#mount -o remount,rw /system
#rm /system/app/filename.apk
#mount -o remount,r /system

[Q] How to make USB MASS STORAGE mode persistent?

I followed these instructions Enable/Disable USB MASS STORAGE mode (UMS) and everything works fine.
Currently if I reboot the device the persist.service.mount.umsauto goes back to 1.
How do I make it always stay at 0? I don't want this mode to be ever enabled again until I explicitly set it to 0 from command line.
Thanks

You'd have to change the init.rc in uRamdisk in the boot partition.
Step 1: Make sure that you have a good backup of the entire Nook.
You need to change:
Code:
# Enable auto-mounting of USB mass storage
setprop persist.service.mount.umsauto 1
If you care to use bootutil.exe in my signature, you can:
Code:
bootutil /x uRamdisk init.rc
[i]edit init.rc and change the one to a zero[/i]
bootutil /r uRamdisk init.rc
Of course you have to mount the boot partition and ADB pull uRamdisk.

Thanks for reply Renate.
To highlight my ignorance let me ask the followup question:
How do I do pull the uRamdisk?

If I do the "adb shell ls /" I see bunch of files in the root folder including init.rc, but not the uRamdisk. I guess what I see is the content of uRamdisk.
Probably the keyword is "mount the boot partition". How do I mount the boot partition?
Thanks a lot.

I sorted it out:
Code:
$adb shell mount -r -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /data/local/tmp/boot/
$adb shell ls -l /data/local/tmp/boot/uRamdisk
-rwxrwxrwx root root 185116 2012-10-11 21:05 uRamdisk

i don't know if works on other oppo devices, but surely works on oppo find 5, how you can find device ID?
You need to search into device propierties -> Device managment -> select oppo device (or any android device), right click (properties)-> details-> id hardware:
a list appear, look for a number like 22D9, then replace into tutorial, 0x<number>.

I haven't tried yet, but maybe:
0) get root AKA SuperSu or ChainfireSu
1) If you are on Oppo Frimware install adb insecure
then open the app and start service.
2) finally conect your phone and:
adb push <file.jar/apk> /system/bin (or wherever)
Note: if you are on CM10.1 skip step 0) and 1).

How to mount MicroSD EXT4?

I've been using on my I9505 since 2013 the very old (3.11.1) MIUI ROM by bmarko which was AOSP CM based and it supports MicroSD EXT4 out of the box..
Now I've swiched to a much newer version (Version: 5.7.24 and future) by Shiro (http://en.miui.com/download-110.html) which is a (non-TW based) 4.4.4 MIUI v6 very beautiful but ...
... but my big surprise is that it do not automount a MicroSD EXT4 formatted.
I had an old procedure that works for TW based 4.2.2 old MIUI but it doesn't work here.
It was:
Step1:
Code:
su
setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
adb kill-server
stop adbd
start adbd
HOME=/sdcard adb start-server
adb connect localhost
adb -s localhost:5555 shell
exit
stop adbd
cat /sdcard/.android/adbkey.pub >> /data/misc/adb/adb_keys
start adbd
step 2:
Code:
#making sure adbd is on port 5555:
setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
adb kill-server
stop adbd
start adbd
#starting server in a way where proper private key is used:
HOME=/sdcard adb start-server
# connecting server to localhost
adb connect localhost
sleep 2
#actually mounting sdcard and re-running vold :
adb -s localhost:5555 shell su -c /system/xbin/msd2.sh
#if we don't kill server it will drain power like crazy:
adb kill-server
Step 3:
Code:
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /storage/extSdCard && sleep 5 && /system/bin/vold
Unfortunately it doesn't work here...
Ext4 is very much faster and safer than FAT based filesystems, and it is the standard for Android on any partition but MicroSD... :crying:
Now that we all use MTP protocol to share android disks there's no need for fat filesystem anymore ...
Do you have an idea on how to properly automount (even using a boot script) a MicroSD ext4 formatted on our amazing MIUI??
Kind regards.
