The Droid??
This is X10 forum
There is a Program called "RemoteSMS" were you can write SMS from your Computer. To "control" the Phone from PC (install , uninstall *.apk etc) is a tool too (forgot the Name) but for that you need root :-d , which we dont have atm
Or you can use androidscreencast.jnlp, see attachment.
To launch open cmd and type: javaws androidscreencast.jnlp (Note, you must have adb installed. For further info download android sdk)
Forgot to mention your phone must be connected through USB

Please give us a guide on how to get this thing to work.
I have downloaded the Android SDK and installed the Android 1.6 and 2.2 stuffs in the SDK program. But not sure what to do next.

If you have installed the Android SDK, open a command prompt and switch to the android tools directory:
for example:
Code:
cd D:\android\tools <-- this is the tools directory I use
Can also be:
cd X:\*path to SDK*\tools
then use
adb devices
This is to see if your device is connected through usb
You should see this:
Code:
List of devices attached
*Some product number* device
In my case:
List of devices attached
HT9A6LG05799 device
Then execute:
Code:
javaws androidscreencast.jnlp
And it should open a java screen and then show your android screen on the computer.
Also make sure you have the latest Java installed, which can be found here:
javadl . sun . com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=39502
One note though: the screen needs to be enabled, so not in sleep mode
I hope this works, it works for me, but I'm using an HTC Tatto instead of a SE X10, so I'm not able to check this for the X10 yet.
Murch, that doesn't seems to work for the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10. I don't get up the device list to the X10 no matter what i do.
So can anyone else try this out with an X10 to see if this is the case?.
Nvm, i found out by looking here: http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=196304
http://adoxa.110mb.com/ansicon/index.html
Something I found awhile back to enable colors in windows shell, after you open cmd, run ansicon then do your adb shell and you get colors instead of junk text.
Also I love adbWireless from the market, no having to dig out my USB cable to use adb, even push files over without usb cable
Thanks, I was looking for it
wow how did i not find out about adbwireless earlier, this tool is fantastic!

hi. could you connect Kindle HD to PC and run command: adb nodaemon server
put there your output
output is: cannot bind 'tcp:5037'
(now when i type adb device the daemon is running and it seems to be recognized by adb but still not as external drive)
Try going into terminal if you have your kindle fire ROOT already and run
shell
start sdcard

Have you tried wireless transfer technology? Such as what is possible in ES Explorer?

it works, as a temporary solution it could be fine, but you know it's kinda slow expecially for music and video files (neither windows media player sees my kfhd). but thank you for this solution in the meantime
Go to a terminal emulator on your kindle and run the command

So what's the problem? You have an ADB connection. Use it to push files to your sdcard.

i'd prefere to transfer my files in a normal way, like an external hd (it's a bit intricate using adb when you could just drag and drop in a folder)

Really? Because I didn't see anything of the sort. You'll have to forgive me for assuming the worst as that is what I'm used to seeing around here.
When you plug your device in, (assuming you haven't installed a custom ROM), what shows up in your device manager?

MTP cannot work while debugging is on BTW, turn it off and try again.
Hello,
My N4 is soft-bricked. Well, hopefully that's all it is.
I want to sideload a ROM onto it, via Mac OS X 10.9.3
I have found plenty of instructions on how to do that with a Mac.
But I can't get ADB or fastboot to see the device.
When I go to the system information on this Mac and looked at the USB devices, I see the Nexus there... along with its serial number, etc. But in Terminal I get a device not found error in ADB and nothing at all in fastboot.
It is my understanding I don't need to install any special drivers on Mac for it to detect the device. Is that correct?
If not, does any one have any suggestions on how I might get this device connected properly?
Thank you...
With further research, I have made some progress. I found this: http://stackoverflow.com/a/7169048
It says:
Also, if that does not work, check to see if the device shows up under USB in the System Profiler (included in OS X). If it is showing up there, but not in ADB, try adding the USB Vendor ID of the phone to ~/.android/adb_usb.ini
This file can be created if it does not already exist. The Vendor ID of the Nexus S is 0x18d1. Please make sure the last line of the file is a Vendor ID, do not leave a blank line at the end.

After doing that, I can now see my N4 listed. Well, at least it does when I am in recovery mode.
Now I shall see if I can make some progress with pushing a ROM to this thing (I am new to all this, so I'll see how this goes...)
Can you get to the bootloader screen? Only there fastboot will work.
Way easier if you just set up a virtual machine and run Odin from Windows.

Let me know if you run into any problems. It's how I change ROMs on my Tab Pro. I use OS X 10.9.3

Sorry I never replied. Thank you. I got it sorted. Nice to have my N4 up and running again.
Anyone get ADB working? I'm getting a no permissions (udev rules) on my linux machine. I'm guessing we need to add the device into udev
EDIT: Solution for Ubuntu/Linux here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73619079&postcount=20
hmm it works on my Mac though..
did you use Sudo?

Yeah, it's not working.. I tried adding the dev in my android.rules file and still nothing. I'm going to play with it more now

Do you need to update your ADB version on your Linux box? I had this issue at one point. With a different phone a couple years ago. Wouldn't recognize the device.

I'm always on the latest version since I do a lot of Android development. I don't get why it's not working.. I've had to add devices in udev so many times, never did it give me an issue before. I'll see if I can figure it out though

ADB Debugging is on in Dev Options right? lol
I know its super basic, but got to check anyway.
whatever you figure out, please let us know! Good luck, and congrats on getting your device!

any idea whats causing adb to not work?

I found a work-a-round to transfer your files from one phone to the Essential.
create a folder on your desktop and copy and paste all files you want transferred to the PH1. Once you have completed that just copy and paste those files from that folder to the phone.

wow, an extremely obvious solution to a problem no one asked about and has nothing to do with this thread!!
I've got ADB to connect somewhat. Instead of cd\sdk\platform-tools just run cd\sdk. ADB devices shows my phone, but once I ADB reboot bootloader, it will boot into the bootloader, but that's it.
I can't get it to work at all windows 10
Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk
I'm on Windows 10 as well. ADB works as long as the phone is booted into the OS. Once I enter the bootloader ADB nor fastboot can see the device

I got ADB working on linux. You need to add this to your 51-android.rules
#Essential
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ATTR{idVendor}=="2e17", ATTR{idProduct}=="c032", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
I still can't get fastboot to work yet though. To get it to work I need to run: sudo $(which fastboot) devices
I'm going to play around with it more to see if I can get it to work just using fastboot devices
ADB is working on Windows 10, but as mentioned above, fastboot isn't recognized. Can't unlock the effing bootloader without that dammit.

Okay so to get it my PC to recognize the device in fastboot, I had to open Computer Management < Device Manager and find the device listed as Mata while booted into the bootloader. Windows didn't know what driver to use so I manually selected the Android Bootloader driver. You have to list all installed drivers on your machine and it should show up for windows 10 users. Device is now unlocked

Same here, just manually installed Google USB Driver and installed it as "Fastboot Interface" and it worked.
Ok I got adb and fastboot both working on Ubuntu/Linux now. Instead of adding the line I posted in my previous post just run this:
sudo sh -c "echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2e17", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules"
Then
sudo service udev restart
Then ubplug your device if it's plugged in via USB and then plug it back in. adb works as well as fastboot
