Im trying to repurpose my SD card so my phone recognizes it as internal memory. So ive been trying to install the ADB. I got on androids developer site and installed all the SDK tools. after installing it, i open up the command promt and type "adb device" and nothing is found and "adb shell" and nothing is found. The only thing i can think is that in the SDK there is no android 6.0.1 only 6.0, does this matter? And does anyone have any other ideas on how to install it? thanks
nvm got it

Ok, do I am changing all of my work over to Ubuntu and have the 1.5 SDK installed and working now. What I don't have is a device connection when I type "ADB Devices" in my terminal window, or when I bring up DDMS. IS there a trick to getting Ubuntu to recognize the G1 as an ADB device? Help is appreciated.

Do a search for an Ubuntu SDK guide, there's a really good one floating around. You need to create a couple of text files to get it to register the USB device, the guide tells you how to do that.
Search for ubuntu udev android. You should be able to find it that way...
Hi there... totally new to the Andriod world and am stuck on trying to upgrade the firmware. I am running Windows 7 64 bit and the devices says that it is installed correctly yet when I run "adb devices" it gives me and error stating "command not recognized....? any idea's?
Rogers device....
do you have your sdk setup correctly? do you have the sdk tools folder in your path?
you can find out by typing path
you should see
C:\android\tools as one of the entries....
windows is telling you that the adb command is not found.
i have the same issue. running windows 7 64bit and adb doesnt find the device. the phone doesnt show up in the device manager either, but it told me that it installed correctly when i first plugged it in.
ok so i have done lots and lots of research on this because as it turns out you need the android sdk for just about everything.. i dont know if it is just me or im not reading sumthin correctly or i jus dont understand but i read the instructions over and over agen on how to install this dam thing and it never works.. can somebody please help me intall this?
Lot of people install it so it does work. The trick is uninstalling the windows driver and replacing it with the adb driver. I assume that's what you want to use. "Install" I think is the wrong word to use, because you don't install anything in the sdk except the driver.
cd to the path of adb.exe in the command prompt. The inital command is 'adb devices' it will show the serial number so you know the phone is detected.
i type that in the cmd and it just says list of devices attached then theres nuthin attached to it.. i read through the instructions on the android website several times and all it really tells me about getting the sdk is adding the full path to the tools\ directory path.. i did this and then what do i do after?
Did you activated "debugging" in USB-Options?
on the phone or on the pc? i have it turned on on my phone but if that is even possible to do on a pc then no i dont...
Hi guys.
Sorry for this noobish post, but i cannot remember for the life of me on how to install things by using 'adb' - i know there is an option on the phone, but where bouce is it? I used it when rooting, but i just cant find it.
I'm trying to install a new boot image, but when i go into cmd i type "adb remount" and the reply is "device not found"... AndroidSDK is in my C directory.
Another EDIT; I just rebooted my device into the recoverymode, and i didn't see ndroid back up thing, does that mean my phone hasn't actually been rooted... - But my phone is deffently debranded.
Thanks if anyone can help my noobish style.
Slim.
When in recovery mode you must have the driver installed. If you enter 'adb devices' it should give you the serial number of your device, if the driver is installed correctly.
To enter the recovery menu you must run the recovery-windows.bat from modaco if using windows or a similiar file (recovery-linux.sh, recovery-mac.sh) according to your operating system. The file should be run when in recovery-mode or else it returns a whole bunch of errors.
Awesome, thanks mate. Just what i needed! Could i have advice what driver i need to be able to acsess the adb?
I just use the driver supplied in the newest version of ADB.
You can get it here. usb_driver.rar
Or else just install HTC Sync from htc.com. It also has the driver files needed.
Remember to have USB Debuging enabled from the Programs/Development menu.
Hello,
i wanted to flash the slimbean rom on my nexus 7 3g but was stupid enough to format the whole storage, so that nothing is left on it.
i tried to connect the device to my pc by mounting it, but it seems not to work, because nothing happens.
well, i found out that i can install the rom from sideload. and after googling it, i managed to find out that i have to install the nexus 7 adb drivers through android sdk, which i did.
to test it, i opened the cmd and typed in "dir", but there was no android-sdk listed. what did i do wrong?
my cmd does not understand the command "adb sideload", although the adb drivers are listed in the device manager...
please help me, i need my nexus 7 tomorrow...
thanks in advance!!
