Pulling build.prop with ADB - Sony Tablet S

Hi,
Finally I can enter recovery mode after messing up with build.prop on Xperia Tablet S
tablet is visible in ADB as
C:\Users\Amiga\Desktop\adb>adb devices
List of devices attached
0123456789ABCDEF recovery
but rest of the commands doesn't work
C:\Users\Amiga\Desktop\adb>adb shell
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: closed
So I don't know how to pull out build.prop from Tablet

The reason you are getting the "error: closed" message is because the version of System Recovery installed on your tablet inhibits ADB from accessing the tablet's file system. You are not going to be able to pull or push the build.prop file.

Ok I can't use ADb so how can I replace faulty build.prop file or make recovery? Any ZIP file that I can put on SD card?

You can try copying an OTA update file to an SD card and using System Recovery to install it, but I do not believe doing that will work. I believe you have bricked your tablet to the point where you have to send your tablet to Sony for repair.

Hi cat tried to PM you but can?t do it...
Can you teach me how to copy/restore (pull and or push) the original build.prop in my cell (now bricked) i had the original file (buil.prop) inside it... i am learning about adb commands. thanksss. The main problem I have: An issue with ADB VCOM drivers (in windows) (tried in a couple of PCS, the device manager "see" the vcom preloader only a little moment (when connect the cell with usb cable) and then dissapear... then with command adb devices: no devices found... can you help me?

The reason ADB is reporting no devices are found may be because (1) your device is bricked, which probably means you are not going to be able to pull/push files from/to your device, (2) you do not have ADB drivers for your device properly installed on your PC, and/or (3) you do not have USB debugging enabled in your tablet's Developer options settings.
It's good you are learning how to use ADB and there are plenty of ADB tutorials to be found via Google, etc.; e.g., HERE.
Here is what you specifically ask for.
Pulling the build.prop file from your tablet to your PC is easy, just use these commands.
Code:
adb wait-for-device
adb pull /system/build.prop
adb kill-server
Pushing the build.prop file from your PC to your tablet is more complicated.
(1) Your tablet must have root access. If it doesn't, attempts at pushing the file to your tablet's /system directory will fail.
(2) Along with having root access, you must have SuperSU or Superuser, and Busybox installed on the tablet.
(3) You have to temporarily set your tablet's /system directory's properties from RO to RW, which must be done quickly because your tablet's OS monitors the /system directory's properties and will reboot the tablet if it detects the directory's properties have been changed from RO.
(4) To issue the ADB commands as quickly as possible, the commands must be put into a DOS batch command script file. For example, create and run a batch file named doit.bat containing the following commands.
Code:
adb wait-for-device
adb push build.prop /build.prop
adb shell "su -c 'stop ric'"
adb shell "su -c 'busybox pkill -f /sbin/ric'"
adb shell "su -c 'mount -ro remount,rw /'"
adb shell "su -c 'chmod 0440 /sbin/ric'"
adb shell "su -c 'stop ric'"
adb shell "su -c 'busybox pkill -f /sbin/ric'"
adb shell "su -c 'mount -ro remount,rw /system'"
adb shell "su -c 'busybox cp -af /build.prop /system/build.prop'"
adb shell "su -c 'chmod 0744 /system/build.prop'"
adb shell "su -c 'rm /build.prop'"
adb shell "exit"
adb kill-server
Good luck.

Wowww Cat, you are the one!! Thanks in Advance
The main problem I have: An issue with device recognition in windows PC... driver ADB VCOM MTK 6592 (tried in different PCS windows Xp and 8) (the device manager "see" the vcom preloader but only a little moment (in the first instant when connect the cell (cell off) with usb cable) and then dissapear (disconnect) the vcom preloader... I think If I can reach the way to get this connection running ok I can progress with this... will fight hard...
When I type the command adb devices, result: no devices found...
Tried to upgrade the vcom drivers (when i can catch it in the active state in device manager)... nothing
Tried to "on" the phone... nothing
Tried to flash a new ROM from Recovery (MIUI or Feelingme 078)... ERROR installation aborted
I can see this effect (with usbview): the usb is recognized in the PC (but just for a little moment at the instant when plug it), then disconnect...
I need to recover the original build.prop.bak from coolpad memory, rename it to build.prop and send it to coolpad again...
I think i can flash (from recovery) an original build. prop (packed as update.zip) doing the wipes and apply update from sdcard)... anyone can assist me on this?
This new 9976A item comes to me with 048 version, custom buid version 265 and rooted from factory...
Anyone can please help me?

Cat i will need to pull the backup file... then the code i need is... (please monitor it for me)
adb wait-for-device
adb pull /system/build.prop.bak
adb kill-server
and... when you push the correct and original file
adb wait-for-device
adb push build.prop /build.prop
is it ok? or the path is this?
adb push build.prop /system/build.prop

You need to solve that problem before you can do anything else. Find an xda-developers forum that deals with your device and look there for fixes for your device's drivers. I am confident I can help you with Sony tablet drivers, but not your device's drivers. I don't even know the model of your device.
Create and use the following CheckDriver.bat file to help you troubleshoot the drivers. The script simply opens a DOS command window, starts the adb server, then lists the devices the adb server finds. The DOS command window will stay open until you press any key. If the script hangs, press ctrl+c to abort the script and close the DOS command window, then open another DOS command window and issue the "adb kill-server" command to stop the adb server.
Code:
@echo off
echo Starting ADB server and waiting for device.
echo.
adb wait-for-device
adb devices
pause
adb kill-server

Looks okay. Just keep in mind that the scripts are based on what is required for Sony tablets. Your device may require something a little different.

No. The "adb wait-for-device" command is what starts the adb server and causes the script to wait until the adb server detects a device before the next command in the script is issued.
Similar to the CheckDevice.bat file, you can insert the "@echo off" command at the beginning of your .bat files and the "pause" command just before the "adb kill-server" to cause the DOS command window stay open so you can see what is going on and the DOS command window will stay open until you press any key. Again, if the script hangs, press ctrl+c to abort the script and close the DOS command window, then open another DOS command window and issue the "adb kill-server" command to stop the adb server.

i have the drivers upgraded

Sounds to me your device simply is not responding to the adb server's attempt to connect. Again, my advice is for you to find an xda-developers forum that deals specifically with your device and look there for fixes for your device.

@Cat McGowan
Thank you for the info,
but it's not working on Recovery mode!
I try to backup and restore the build.prop file on cmd in recovery & in bootloop case.
working:
adb wait-for-device
adb pull /system/build.prop.bak or adb pull /system/build.prop
adb kill-server
not working push to the system: (even the cmd showing the opposite)
adb wait-for-device
adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
adb kill-server
I'm tring to resotre from PC or SD card...
(after changing the permission to system folder (instead only build.prop file) to 00644 the device keep get to Recovery mode! (with root browser app)
only flashing again the rom fix it.)
I got an error too:
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Permission denied (13) -
by the way what Should to be on?
SuperSU or Superuser (ADB shell allow ?)
Developer Mode (Enable ADB ) +USB Debugging on
i'm worng what else?
I want to add some info:
I know the best way to edit this file only by : Notepad++ or EditPlus editor to preserve UNIX encoding
or Turbo Editor ( File Editor ) app.

and great script from user.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55113422&postcount=208
will this work too on recovery or bootloops mode?
backup:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp /system/build.prop /system/build.prop.bak
mount -o ro,remount /system/ /system
----
restore:
adb shell
su

cp system/build.prop system/build.prop.bootloop
cp system/build.prop.bak system/build.prop
chmod 00644 system/build.prop

[Q] ADB shell commands in .bat

I am on aospCM's rom for my Hero and as such the market has some problems. To fix it, s0be found a way to do it. The commands are such:
1. adb shell
2. su
3. mkdir /cache/download
4. chown system:cache /cache/download
5. chmod ug+rwx /cache/download
6. chmod a+x /cache/download
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don't need step 3 since the directory exists.
Since I am flashing nightlies (or near nightlies as the case may be) typing all of these commands gets super tedious. I figured there has to be a way to do this in a .bat from Windows.
I have adb worked into my system shell (did this so I could use the SendTo menu to push to my phone) and I came up with this:
Code:
@echo off
adb connect 192.168.1.66
echo Time to fix the market
pause
adb shell su
adb shell chown system:cache /cache/download
adb shell chmod ug+rwx /cache/download
adb shell chmod a+x /cache/download
echo Done
pause
This didn't work, nor did a few iterations previous to it where I was taking out the repetitive 'adb shell' commands. I don't know enough about batch/dos programming to get this to work, so I am turning to the community. Help please?

not "adb shell" try "adb shell -c"

example : boot.img = /dev/block/mmcblk0p7"
so you can pull out from there .. here ..
3. adb shell su -c "chmod 777 /dev/block/mmcblk0p7"
4. adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mtdblock7 of=/storage/sdcard0/boot.img"
(of=/storage/sdcard0/ .. this location may b change you can look at "mount" )
For someone dont' know
thanks all ...

[Q] P7500 3G keep rebooting even with factory reset

Hi all,
Here's my case,
The tab keep rebooting itself (galaxy tab - samsung logo - startup page). On the startup page it stil able to run it around 6/7 seconds and freeze then the same thing happen again.
I tried wipe all data/factory reset and wipe cache in recovery mode,but it still happen.
I wonder by factory reset all data would be deleted but still i able to view the old files from "get zip from sd card" option.
Tried Odin with usable ROM last time. Still the same.
In Mounts and Storage, there's no mount usb options for me. So cant boot from usb.
Please advice. Thanks a lot. Too many in my head now.

think this called a boot loop. and i found this... which i do not familiar with this.

Chapter 3 Using ADB as solution
ADB can be used to access the phone while booting, be aware that some bootloops make it unable to use ADB since they do not go further then the manufacturer logo. (In new CWM versions it’s possible to use adb)
The only tricky part about using ADB with bootloops is that you have to do it on the right time, this is different from every device, but normally it’s after the manufacturer logo that the partitions get mounted. The easiest way to enter your phone in this part is using a batch script that monitors the state of your device and connects directly when possible.
I use this script for example, called ondemand.bat (requires adb.exe and the 2 dlls)
@ECHO off cd /d %~dp0 echo. echo Waiting for device… adb wait-for-device echo. adb -d shell stop adb push mycwmfix.zip /sdcard/mycwmfix.zip adb reboot recovery

@ECHO off
cd /d %~dp0
echo.
echo Waiting for device…
adb wait-for-device
echo.
adb -d shell stop
adb push mycwmfix.zip /sdcard/mycwmfix.zip
adb reboot recovery
Linux Version (ondemand.sh):
#!/system/bin/sh echo " " echo "Wating for device..." ./adb wait-for-device echo " " ./adb -d shell stop ./adb push mycwmfix.zip /sdcard/mycwmfix.zip ./adb reboot recovery

#!/system/bin/sh
echo " "
echo "Wating for device..."
./adb wait-for-device
echo " "
./adb -d shell stop
./adb push mycwmfix.zip /sdcard/mycwmfix.zip
./adb reboot recovery
This script will wait for the device to become ready, when it’s ready it freeze the device, so the script has more time to push the file (instead of keep rebooting). Then it will push the specified cwmfix zip to your sdcard, and after that it will reboot in recovery so you can install the cwm fix you made. You can also make an batch script that pushes the files automatically to your phone, here is an example:
@ECHO off cd /d %~dp0 echo. echo Waiting for device... adb wait-for-device echo. adb -d shell stop adb -d shell su -c "mount -o remount rw /system" adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk adb -d shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk adb -d shell chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk adb reboot

adb -d shell stop
adb -d shell su -c "mount -o remount rw /system"
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb -d shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk
adb -d shell chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk
adb reboot
Linux version:
#!/system/bin/sh echo " " echo "Waiting for device..." ./adb wait-for-device echo " " ./adb -d shell stop ./adb -d shell su -c "mount -o remount rw /system" ./adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk ./adb -d shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk ./adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk ./adb -d shell chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk ./adb reboot

./adb -d shell su -c "mount -o remount rw /system"
./adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
./adb -d shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
./adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk
./adb -d shell chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk
./adb reboot
This script will wait for the device to become ready, when it’s ready it freeze the device, so the script has more time to push the file (instead of keep rebooting). Then it will push framework-.apk and SystemUI.apk to the directory it belongs to, after that it changes the permissions of the files to RW-R-R (644) and then it will reboot.
Please note that on some devices the command “su -c” cannot be used after using the “stop” command, it gives an error then (Segmentation Fault).
What you can do to prevent this is adding “adb remount” just under the “adb wait-for-device” line, and remove the “adb -d shell su -c “mount -o remount rw /system” line.
Save the script and run it again.
You are probably able to fix your bootloop with this guide, in some rare cases some other partitions could be damaged, then I advice you to install the stock rom (which is no .zip in most cases)
Once you master the fixing of bootloops you can fix your phone independently !

anyone know how? where do i need to put the script file to? thanks.

Try this
Code:
adb devices
adb disable-verity
adb reboot
adb devices
adb shell "mkdir -p /data/local/tmp > 2/dev/null"
adb push c:\su /data/local/tmp > nul
adb shell "chmod 0777 /data/local/tmp/su"
adb shell "-c '/data/local/tmp/su'"
adb shell "setenforce 0"
adb shell "cd /"
adb shell "mount -o rw,remount -t auto /system"
adb shell "cp /data/local/tmp/su /system/bin"
adb shell "mount -o ro,remount -t auto /system"
adb reboot
adb devices
adb enable-verity
adb reboot
Ok I try

1. I think you forgot to type a simple "space" between Command: "mkdir -p" and Dirname: "data/local/tmp > 2 /dev/null"
2. And the last part "> 2 /dev/null" means redirect stdout (or error stream) and ignore it.
Conclusion, maybe just a typo? or err. mssge isn't what you think --> redirection made it dissappear.
Hopefully this works...
otherwise use this code:
adb devices
adb shell "mkdir -p /data/local/tmp" 2>nul >nul
adb shell "chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp"
adb push C:\su /data/local/tmp > nul
adb shell "chmod 0777 /data/local/tmp/su"
adb shell "/data/local/tmp/su -c 'cd / && mount -o rw,remount -t auto /system'"
adb shell "cp /data/local/tmp/su /system/bin"
adb shell "/data/local/tmp/su -c 'setprop ro.build.type user-debug'"
adb reboot
