Yes, i put my sdk folder in the root of the hard drive C and called it just sdk to make it simple. And inside are the tools folder.....so i do not know what i might be doing wrong.
The debugg mode mode was enabled in the previous rom, but dont know in the 2.3.1 rom, as i am not able to run it
Thanks anyways

i think i have the answer to my problem...
i have to put this in the cmd
cd C:\sdk\platform-tools\
that's where the adb shell is.....not in tools, but in platform tools

[Q] Command prompts in fastboot mode

This may be a noob problem on my part but I have been having problems navigating fastboot through command prompt. I have been able to successfully install fastboot on my laptop and have no problem getting my streak to go into fastboot mode, but command prompt doesn't recognize my commands when I type "fastboot" after getting prompt to "c:\streak>". I have followed the guide "what you need to know about the dell streak" to the letter but no luck. Help please
You can't install fastboot you need open the command prompt and navgivate to where u have the files extracted.
For example for me I extracted repaire tool in c:/streakrepair
So I do
Cd ..
Cd ..
Cd ..
Cd streakrepair
Then u can will the fastboot commands make sure that where the fastboot file is.

I'd post the link but can't search streaksmart for how to sideload apps without adb
This should help you out on how to get unkown sources to appear.

So I should just use this command in fastboot and it will give me the option to disable this security setting?

There are 2 ways that I know to get to adb shell
First u can download android sdk that contains adb shell on it,enable usb debugging on u'r phone than connect it to your pc. Then run cmd on u'r pc and point to android sdk folder than type adb shell
Second,the easiest way I think,download and install terminal emulator from market,then run it and u are on adb shell now.

APK installer for Mac OS X??

Is there a SIMPLE gui apk installer on mac??
I used to use "Droid Explorer" and "Android Commander" on windows.
Any help?
well.. besides just draggin an apk to the sdk card and launching it with a file explorer to install, you can use adb to easily push and install an app from your mac to your computer.
download the android sdk.
open the terminal and navigate to where adb is and
Code:
./adb install <path_to_apk>
easy!

Thanks for your reply. It's the method that I know man, but it's not as easy as double clicking any .apk file and clicking "install" (as in Droid Explorer for windows)
yea its seems that most of the good front ends and guis for the android tools are all made for windows.. ive used a mac the entire time ive had an android phone and i havent seen much osx love in terms of guis (with the exception of some rooting app.)
That's because everything can be done via command prompt

hi I am on a mac running lion. I need a little help please with how to use adb to reinstall all my apk's back to my tel.
I seem to have been reading and reading but can not figure out the code to write in the terminal line.
I have my apps stored on my Desktop, in a folder called. backupapps
( the apps I am backing up are apps i have bought from the market)
I want to install them all at one time
can some one give me the adb code to install all files in my backup folder to my galaxy s2 tel. please
thanks
Plug your phone into the pc, enable USB Storage mode, copy apps to storage card. Use a program like root explorer or es explorer (my personal fav) and install the apps from there. Es Manager and Titanuim backup has nice application backup features. If you really want to use adb: adb install <path to apk> or try the cross platform QTadb application
This might help you
It will allow you to install your APK if you double click it and your phone is connected (debug mode enabled)

I created the app successfully
Use airdroid,wireless management for any droid,it-s free apk,and web based.i'm using lion,and working ok.before i find'it i've used droidexplorer from vmware windows..very uncovenient way.

adb server is out of date ...killing?

Anyone know how to fix this?
I tried a reinstall of the PC Companion software, but that didn't do any good.

Update android sdk
Tried that, and no dice, still doesn't work. Strangely enough, the rooting still worked.

used to happen to me on ubuntu sometimes.
sudo ./adb kill-server
sudo ./adb start-server
make this a .sh file and run outside terminal.
if you run inside terminal, then it will give the error again after closing the terminal

remove the already existing adb.exe in SDK or rename it to some other name. and try adb commands.
it should work as iḿ using it every day.
PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED YOU!
Or go to
Settings > Xperia > Connectivity > USB connection mode > MSC.

Yes. Closing the flashtool worked for me. If any one having problem try closing flashtool or something that is using adb.
That happens to me when i wanna start sdb server for manual root while having flashtool open.
For my case, I check USB debugging as it uncheck automatically...

[Q] What is "ADB" and how to run it?

Hello all, I've been really happy with my XPS ever synce I've root it and everything is working clockwork, except there is something eating my battery.
I've used "BetterBatteryStats" app, and i've got a parcial wakelock "AlarmManager" in 1st place.
I've read that to know eacly what app is waking the phone i've got to connect the phone to a Pc, run "ADB" and type "adb shell dumsys alarm > C:\alarm_log.txt".
This will creat a log file that will show what app is generating all those wake numbers, and then unistall or limit it.
The problewm is... what is ADB.EXE??? Where can i get that program for the pc? Does the phone have to be in USB debuggin mode? If someone help me I'll post a guide to anyone in need to find the problematic apps that eat battery for others noobs out there!

As the above is saying you should search n read a lot... there are guides all over in net in many n here xda as well... Its a good start by learning urself from the help already here..
1. ADB is included in SDK here. get it ...http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
2. Here is a guide to set up SDK... http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/developer/android-sdk-install-guide/
4. Browse to folder platform-tools adb.exe is inside... but u can't just click open it.. adb is used via command prompt (cmd)
5. Easy way to open cmd to adb is Shift+ right click -> click open cmd here
6. To connect phone in adb u have to enable usb debugging mode as u said..
7.Then start typing commands....
Thank you a lot for the aswer!
I DID goodle for the answer, but I had an hard time undestanding what I should do, I'm a pharmacist, not a technician.
That beeing said, the other part of the info I posted I found using the search funcion.
Anyway, thank you a lot for that answer, I'll try it now.

To perform this actions, is it mandatory that phone needs to be rooted?
Because, i followed all the steps, when i executed the command in cmd prompt, i got below info
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
/system/bin/sh: dumsys: not found
What should i need to do now if phone doesn't needed to be rooted?
For using adb not necessarily ur phone rooted... but if u need to get anything insdie system folder ur phone needs root access... you can pull/push files from adb.. but it makes more easier if u do those for sdcard via windows explorer after connecting via usb..
In short its for rooted devices mostly.....
Ok, still need help on this one.
I've followed all the steps, installed SDK, phone in development, command line accepted, but then I check the log file I get this:
/system/bin/sh: dumsys: not found
So... Why is it now finding my phone? any idea? When am i supposed to connect the phone to the pc?
Thank you for the help!
