SO I NEED HELP!

i want to be able to install 3rd party apps and get rid of att bloatware.
i have no idea where to start.
HELP!!!!!!!!!
thanx
ubuntu or windows...
download the Android SDK for Windows
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
install and download ONLY THE USB DRIVERS
open cmd window, connect usb cable, navigate to the <folder>\tools where you installed, ie. c:\android\tools
paste the following into a small batch file, call it anything you want dot bat,
ie. c:\android\tools\yourname.bat
---cut here--
cd\android\tools
adb remount
adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db
echo update secure set value = 1 where name = 'install_non_market_apps';|sqlite3 settings.db
adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
pause 1
adb reboot
-- cut here--
ok i'll try right now
still must be missing something
what setting is my phone on when i plug it in? recovery? or just regular charge only or hard disk mode?
how do i get the usb drivers to work? when i try to install them is says "windows was unable to install your adb". is there something else i need on my pc?
when i run that .bat file it says a bunch of things, but basically says device not found.
please start from step #0.
there is no one place that has every single step we need to do.
it makes it next to impossible to get this to work.

I'm not sure I've ever seen this error come up before by anyone. Saying this is impossible isn't really true since several people have gotten it working, and the information is on these forums. The best thing to do would be to go to the IRC channel and get stepped through it. http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#liberatedAria
I'm not quite sure what's up with your ADB install, but you should download HTC Sync from the HTC site, because it includes a driver install. http://www.htc.com/us/support/aria-att/downloads/. Then go through the process in the post above. Your phone should be in the "Charge Only" mode when connected to the computer.

i know it's not impossible, it's just that usually when the people explaining the steps to accomplish this leave out steps that they think is common knowledge/sense, but is not to total noobs.
it would be nice to have a definitive step-by-step guide:
step 1 - root your phone (this was actually really easy with the ubuntu cd)
step 2 - go back to windows and download/install these specific programs . . . (i did not know i needed htc sync, the steps i saw said just to use the sdk and the usb drivers in there to set up my phone)
step 3 - enable debugging on phone, plug your phone into pc and use charge only. (don't we use recovery for anything, i've seen steps about having this open and using the mount /system to do stuff)
step 4 - get the adb usb drivers to install properly (i guess this is my main issue at the moment...is that what is causing the device not found error when i run the .bat file?)
step 5 - copy and paste code into notepad an save as a .bat file.
step 6 - run the .bat file (within cmd? double click on the file? does it matter?)
step 7 - ????
alternate step 2 through whatever - use the ubuntu cd to do everything... (???)

Run the bat file in the cmd window. Once the bat has successfully run you can unplug the phone and you'll be good to go.

so what is the point of the sdk...other than to have the tools folder to run that .bat? so i'm the only one that can't get the sdk usb drivers to work?
and by good to go, u mean i can install 3rd party apps?
how do i get rid of the the at&t bloatware?
There are other threads explaining how to install third party apps and remove ATT bloatware.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
The problem with trying to do a step-by-step guide is that things like rooting, removing bloatware, and sideloading apps are all separate processes that require different steps and can be done in multiple ways. Some stuff requires you to be in recovery, some stuff doesn't, and other methods may require additional software. That's why there are specific separate threads that discuss them.
You've rooted your phone already, yay! Now you decide what you want to do next. Remove the bloatware? It's important that you don't lump everything together when trying to figure out what you need to do.
It seems like the first step you need to do is get ADB working and recognizing your phone when it's plugged in. ADB is necessary because it provides all the tools/commands necessary for us to interact with the phone through the command line. Windows is notoriously bad about the USB drivers. That's why the Ubuntu method was streamlined for people so they wouldn't have to deal with it. (Linux and Mac have no such usb driver issues.)

thanks for the reply.
yeah i rooted via the ubuntu disc, but then all the other steps people were telling me were using the sdk, getting the drivers, htc sync, yada yada. via windows. so thats the method i've been trying.
is there a step-by-step guide on how to allow 3rd party apps using the ubuntu disc? or... removing bloatware?
is it the same steps, but you just dont have to worry about the drivers?
The steps listed once you're in the SDK are actually the same regardless of what OS you're using.
So for Ubuntu install the SDK. Steps should be the same, just make sure you download the Linux version. Then you'd open a Terminal window (should be called Terminal in Ubuntu.) Then you should be able to use the same commands/steps you find in the other threads.
Since you've been having trouble getting your phone to connect the first thing to do is make sure SDK can actually see your phone. You should be able to open up your Terminal window, navigate to the SDK folder, connect your phone and then type 'adb devices' in the terminal window. It should then list out your phone as HTXXXXXXXX. X being some numbers and letters. If it does show that then you're on your way.
After that I'd go with removing bloatware and the steps listed in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735255

ok cool thanks a lot!
i didn't even think to go back to linux to try this stuff until today at work.
i'll check it out later tonight after i mow the lawn and eat dinner....priorities...
i tried in windows one last time. it actually found the htc sync drivers (i in/uninstalled htc snyc earlier...i guess thats what did it)
adb devices command finds my phone, but when i try and run that .bat file, it goes through a bunch of things, but basically says:
remount failed: operation not permitted
failed to copy...
permission denied
all those types of things. then it says to hit enter and then it restarts my phone
???
did u try installing HTC sync connect phone to htc sync, then unistall the htc sync software usb drivers should stay behind

[Q] Sideload Script says no device found?

My Nook Tablet just updated to the dreaded 1.4.1 version which makes sideloading pretty difficult.
I was reading this article which has steps to sideload apps onto the 1.4.1 NT without rooting it, and pointed to downloading this script on the XDA forums which will push the apk onto the plugged in tablet, as long as the apk is in the same folder as the Sideload script files.
So, steps 1 to 5 weren't a real problem but its Step 6 that I'm stuck on.
There is a Sideload BAT script which seemed to run (its disclaimer is that it will only run if it finds an Android device -- which is a clear indication that it could find and recognize that my Nook Tablet is plugged in). It even says C:\Sideload>adb wait-for-device. However, when I try to tell it to install the apk via Command Prompt (I type in: adb install Amazon_Appstore-release.apk ), it returns "error: device not found" .
Just for good measure, I also type in C:\Sideload\adb devices and it returns: List of devices attached .
I'd greatly appreciate if somebody could help me with this--I really have it up a wall and would just like to put this problem to bed. Thanks!
i'm having the same exact problems here! are there any specific drivers to install?
Yep, I was still fairly a noob at this when I first posted but have learned a lot ever since. Here's what you want to do:
(btw, I factory resetted to 1.4.0--you may need to as well):
When it says "no device found", it's corresponding to this command line : adb install whatevernameofapp.apk . I interpreted "no device found" to mean that it does not know what "adb" means in the command.
For it to recognize all "adb" related commands, you have to have the USB drivers installed. Look for tgps_launcher.apk on this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354487. That will set you up with having you Nook to accept third party applications + having it on UBS debug mode.
Then, install the drivers (I saw this YouTube walkthrough because it is NOT intuitive and you want to be sure you're doing it right , it's not the way you would traditionally update drivers for a mouse or keyboard; here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtGveN7jbzs )
After that, I followed the instructions on this article, made a folder in C:, called it sideload, and also pasted an .apk. Now, when I do the Commant Prompt, it says this: http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/2914/cmdnookadb.jpg . While, the transfer was successful, I haven't been able to see the app on my tablet. Does anyone know where I can find this (data/local wasn't found when I connected the tablet to my PC either, and it wasn't on my SD or so). Is it because I'm still on 1.4.0?
Let me know if you get it working all the way!
I followed all those directions exactly. I had received the No Device Found error. I followed the Youtube directions to add drivers and it seems like I did it correctly. I am seeing the android device on the device manager.
I tried running the script again and got the same error! I'm now stuck!
I had the amazon marketplace already installed and was using it successfully until my nook updated to 1.4.2. I thought I had ES File Explorer downloaded but for some reason I can't find it! So I now I am trying to sideload ES File Explorer this way but it wont work!
0x2080
^ put that in %userprofile%\.android\adb_usb.ini
Can you give me more specific instructions on how to do that?
FYI - I have ver 1.4.2 and I am NOT rooted. I have already enabled unknown sources and downloaded the amazon market. I was installing 3rd party apps fine before the update.

[Q] [ROOT] Kindle Fire HD 7.4.8

Im trying to root my kindle fire hd (version 7.4.8)
Every time i use Kindle Fire First Aide on the command prompt it says that i have a system path not specified error.
My laptop operating system is windows 8 ( I have not upgraded yet to latest version so I don't know if that's the problem)
Any Help would be appreciated
Steps I Used
1. Download KFFA
2. Opened KFFA using cmd
3. Used option 21 : Alternative root: newer devices
4. Says system path is not specified
5. It starts a daemon but thats all it does
P.S Im not sure but it also looks like i have a adb problem
I turned on the ADB with usb and used the adb drivers in KFFA but it never works
I'm having a similar problem.
I've had my kindle rooted for several months now, and I'm sure that I had turned auto updating off...however, this update (7.4.8) was forced on me a couple of weeks ago, and now I've lost the ability to usefully run Google Play (it keeps giving me a 'no connection' error). I also cannot update any programs that were obtained through google play.
A few things that I have noticed:
BusyBox Installer says that my Kindle is rooted, but cannot install BusyBox, or run any of the scripts.
KFFA cannot access my Kindle. I have tried several proceedures on the forums to rectify this problem, to no avail. I have tried with several cables including the original, and the cable that I previously successfully rooted my kindle with.
My kindle has started showing ads on the lock screen at times, which was something I disabled with KFFA when I first rooted my kindle.
I do have momentary adb access while booting, but it gets disconnected as soon as the lock screen appears and I cannot reconnect
same problem here, can't manage to root kindle with 7.4.8
RE:
Well then i guess it will only work if you brick your kindle to reboot over and over then root and use kffa to root it then unbrick it using it and i think it will work let me try
Successfully rooted Kindle Fire HD 7.4.8
Hi,
So this morning I reset to factory my KFHD 7.4.8. Clean start...
1/ install KFFirstAid from geekappz.blogspot.com/2013/02/root-kindle-fire-hd-and-2-with-windows.html
I did install the 64bit version on my windows 7.
2/ execute all installation steps of KFFA as explained in the link above until reaching C-1 root step 10 (do that step 10).
3/ connect your kindle to your computer via USB
4/ the runme.bat in KFFA depends on another system package called busybox. Great package but... you cannot install from amazon store on a fresh kindle, and the installation via the runme.bat does not work. I decided to do without busybox... So replace the original runme.bat in C:/KFFirstAid by the one attached. I edited the sections 18 and 21 (i "rem"ed some lines, and put the corrected code just below). I edited only these two options. (means do not ask about the others...)
(site did not upload the file, so here is a link to it... drive.google.com/file/d/0ByEA1ADGX9vNS2RKUEdKYnN6Uk0/edit?usp=sharing)
5/ launch "my" runme.bat.
6/ select option 21. This will root the kindle. Follow the instructions (including the full restore at the beginning). It will reboot quite a few times, just be patient... (very). Your kindle may seem up and running, but the adb communication may take a few more minutes to go through...
At the end, superuser.apk is installed, look for it in the command window log. When done, on your kindle, start supersu and let it update itself. Verify root access with root check basic.
7/ return to the main menu of runme.bat,
8/ select option 18. This will install google play. Follow the instructions, including the registration to google on the kindle, in the middle of the installation. During this registration i experienced a few "application stopped working", but it went through anyway... so do not panic...
Again, a lot of reboots...
That's all folks... (takes about two hours...)
Successfully Rooted KFHD 7.4.9
Still works for KFHD 7.4.9
Replaced some "mv" commands by "dd" commands to workaround a cross device link error, in the runme.bat file.

Has anyone found a way to root the LG Transpyre?

Having this phone non root is driving me completely insane. No greenifying system apps, bloatware, etc.
Are there any root methods on the computer that root all android phones?
Did you get this rooted yet?
See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/lg-transpyre-root-4-4-2-t3021836
Found this to work for me on transpyre
I found this on another web site after almost giving up on my Verizon transpyre vs810pp i followed to the tee with the exception of install su from thr google store cause after root and boot it will b installed so just follow the guide and you to shall have root enjoy and props to the ones that gave us this gift.........
This is not my exploit to take credit for in anyways; and as always do this at your OWN risk. Credits to the creator(s) (I don't know who it is), the finder jgkim, and the translator Unjustified Dev.
Original post here.
A translated post here.
The original posts do not talk about the G3, but it DOES work for the G3. See post #636 and on where it has worked for others besides myself (on this XDA thread.) Tested myself on the VS985 (Verizon G3) and it has worked flawlessly. Others have tested on AT&T G3 (D850) and it has apparently worked fine as well!
I noticed quite a few people upgrading who didn't know much about this, and also quite a few people NOT upgrading because of the lack of root access, well this easy to follow tutorial should help with that. I think the instructions on the XDA post are quite clear and easy to follow, but I decided to post one here out of boredom. Originally I was going to just share the link, but why not? Enjoy.
How to:
Install SuperSU from the Google Play store and install it.
Download these files and extract the contents. I redownloaded all files and packed them together right after to ensure this file is safe. The files are the original rooting-require files along with MFastBoot (Basically adb without the Android SDK installed, it's quick and easier for me since I have not installed the Android SDK). It also includes the latest SuperSU Binary zip straight from the Chainfire website.
Enable USB debugging on your device. (About Phone > Build Number (keep tapping it until it says you are a developer) and then go back to the main settings. Go into developer options and enable USB debugging.)
With your phone screen on: Connect it to your computer via USB cable and put it into PTP mode. (USB debugging should report as on in the status bar.)
With your phone screen on: Hold shift and right click in the folder you extracted and open a command window. (Your phone will soon ask you to allow the computer, hit remember and yes! It may have even asked your prior to this step, just allow it.)
Copy this:
adb push g2_root.sh /data/local/tmp/
Right click in the command window and paste. Hit enter, and wait until it finishes (should take a second.) Now copy this:
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/
Paste it in the command window and hit enter. Copy this:
adb push UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/
Paste it in the command window and hit enter.
Leave the command window open and disconnect your device. Turn off the device completely. Hold volume up and connect the USB cable to your device without touching the power button; it will go into download mode.
Find which com port your device is connected to (Device Manager > Ports > Your phone will be there, COM(Number) is what you'll need.
Go back your command prompt, and copy this:
Send_Command.exe \.\COM(CHANGEME)
Replace "(CHANGEME)" with the COM port number of your device. Now copy this:
sh /data/local/tmp/g2_root.sh dummy 1 /data/local/tmp/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp/busybox
Paste it into command prompt and hit enter.
Enjoy your root access! I don't think you can just do "adb reboot", so just disconnect your device and do a battery pull. Put the battery back in and boot up your device. Enjoy root!

2 brand new KFHD6. One connects to ADB, the other doesn't.

I installed ADB and fastboot from http://lifehacker.com/the-easiest-way-to-install-androids-adb-and-fastboot-to-1586992378 and Bloater from http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294.
I have one KFHD6 that got the OTA 4.5.4 update prior to anything else. This one connects to my PC just fine and ADB works. It's the device I used to install PDANet, which helped me get the computer to recognize the Kindle in ADB.
I took another KFHD6 out of the box today (on 4.5.3), ADB was enabled by default, I did not setup Wi-Fi so I could keep 4.5.3. When I connect it to my PC, I get the Autoplay popup on my computer, but ADB does not connect. There's no prompt to trust the computer. I've tried the same cable. I've tried turning ADB off and back on. I've rebooted my devices.
I did notice that the Autoplay icon is different for the two Kindles. The 4.5.4 looks like a phone ( http://www.groovypost.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Open-Device-to-View-Files-AutoPlay.png ). The 4.5.3 looks like a tablet like the icon here ( http://cnet1.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r.../066e9701a8d91559092f149bd6b32516/drivers.jpg )
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
I figured it out. I don't have PDANet installed on the 2nd Kindle. Can someone tell me the path in the Silk Browser to execute the apk? For example,
file:///Download/PdaNet.apk
But that's not it. I don't have Internet on the Kindle yet, because I don't want OTA updates, so I can't install ES Explorer from the Store. I just need to be able to execute the APK file that I transferred to the Kindle via the USB cable. Thanks!
I figured THAT out. But Silk is not executing the file. It states that it has to download it and that it can be found in Downloads, but then the screen goes black and nothing happens. I hit home to get out of Silk, go back in and it's still black. If I reboot, and then open Silk, it asks if I want to restore my tabs. Yes, gives a black screen. No puts me back at the Silk browser again. The file doesn't show up in the Downloads section of Silk, so I'm unable to execute it. Surely there's a way to install APK files without ES Explorer (I'd actually like to install ES Explorer, but without Internet access).
Which came first--the chicken or the egg? Please help. Thanks!
I have yet to figure this out. I have several KFHD6's. The first one was a breeze to get ADB working. The second one had trouble, but it finally started working when I uninstalled the driver from the Device Manager and the ADB Driver installed. I have 3 more new Kindles which don't want to get on the ADB bus. Does anyone have any suggestions? Here's what I've done:
Installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790)
Installed PdaNet (http://pdanet.co/)
Installed Android SDK (http://dl.google.com/android/installer_r24.3.3-windows.exe)
Updated an inf file and tried to update the driver (http://www.jayceooi.com/how-to-install-kindle-fire-adb-usb-driver/)
The first worked after the first 2 bullets. The second worked after the first 3 bullets and then uninstalling the driver in the Device Manager. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Here's the solution if anyone has this problem:
Plug in the new device. Let it install the driver in Device Manager. Right-click --> Properties on it. Uninstall device and unplug it. Reboot your PC and you Kindle. Plug your Kindle back in.
It was that easy for me--on 2 new devices. The 3rd was literally plug-and-play. Very weird.
