Try reading over raziel23x 's wonderful thread here -->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227179 Which may help with your problem. If after thoroughly reading over the thread, and you still can't solve your issue then provide a bit more in depth information about the issue you are having, and I will try to help you out as much as I can, since I have been playing around with APK Manager 5.0.1 recently. As for what is obvious, make sure your PATH environment variables are set properly, do a search in the forums, and you can find excellent documentation on how to do this. If you can't find it, then post back here, and I'll find it and post the link for you. Also, if your using an older version of APK Manager then you should give APK Manager 5.0.1 a try, or if your using another manager. I'm still learning some things as well, so go ahead and post back here, and I'll try to help, as helping you may help me to better understand things as well.

[Q] Unable to access jarfile X10flash.jar

Hello.
This is my first post so first off I would like to say thank you to the members of XDA because I have been helped a great deal in the past by simply reading some of the posts on this forum.
That being said, I have a problem that I could not find the answer to after hours of searching.
I am trying to Debrand/Root my Rogers X10a using the Exploid method
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7490733#post7490733
After I enter my Device ID into the appropriate file, I ran RootX10a_v2.cmd as instructed. However, once I try to run step 1 i get the following message:
"unable to access jarfile X10flash.jar"
Ive tried connecting the phone in flash mode to different USB ports and using different Device IDs however nothing has worked.
Any ideas?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I have just the thing for you matey. I can't post a link sorry but google search for Universal Androot and download and install it on your phone.
It allows to you 1 click root or unroot your device without any fuss and should allow you to root it when 2.1 is released as it contains the superuser files for 1.5 / 1.6 and 2.0 - 2.2.
I am using it and it works brilliantly. Hope this helps

Welcome to xda! the answer is in the forum but i can't remember where.
Set up the path to the sdk tools in your environment variables.
Cheers
Gav
Thanks for the responses.
steve- are you sure that the universal androot works with the x10? another concern is that i also wanted to debrand my phone to get rid of rogers bloatware so how would I solve that issue if I can't access the x10flash.jar?
gavriel- sorry. could you explain in a little more detail what you said? i don't quite understand what you mean.
Thanks!
The one click root seems simple enough.
My problem now is with debranding.
Ive tried the method where you switch the files in SEUS (ive also tried PC Companion) just before it installs onto your phone and that has not worked. It says every time that the installation has failed.
Does anyone have any other ideas as to how I can debrand my phone?
Thanks!
For sure. I may be wrong but ill explain it as I understand it.
Basically when your PC is trying to use a jar file it looks in a particular area. I'm not sure where it looks though. Obviously your jar file isn't in that directory or you wouldn't get that error. So, by adding it as an environment variable it will look in the directory u added for that file.
The environment variables is found somewhere in the system settings. I can't remember where. Once you have found it you should find the path to the jar you are trying to access. Copy that path and paste it and the end of the environment variables. Don't erase anything that's in there. If need be seperate that path from the one before with a ; (semicolon). Save it and try running the jar again. It should work.
Good luck and hopefully it helps.

It means that Java can't find the X10flash.jar file. Do you have that file in the same directory as DeviceID.txt? Also, do you have the latest version of 32-bit Java installed?
To solve my debranding problems I had to use the 32 bit update 20, not 21 (which is the latest) and you need the jdk and the jre, hope that helps

[Q] Setting up the Android SDK in Ubuntu...

Ok, I'm sure this is been asked before and I'm sure there's references somewhere...I've looked for a couple of days and found what should be answers, but nothing is working like the instructions I've seen...
Here's the simple question; How do I get the Android SDK and Java JDK setup in Ubuntu? I've tried the sudo commands to get the JDK to install, not working for me (as Ubuntu tells me it can't find the files I'm looking for). I've tried moving the SDK into the Root Folder (in the File System area itself), don't have permissions even though I'm logged in as the administrator. I've tried getting the SDK Manager to run through Terminal (home/android-sdk-xxxxx_xxxx/tools/android), can't find the file in terminal, but it's there in the file system exactly where I'm pointing it to.
I'm very new to Linux, but if I'm going to do things that I want to do, I'm going to have to learn. For the most part, I'm prepared to read whatever I need to in order to learn from this, but I also know when I need to ask for some help here. It seems like every command shown to get this started is just not working in the partition I have setup for this. If anyone can help get me started, I'm sure I can pick the rest up along the way!
Thanks in advance!

I think you could possibly use part of the EasyDev-v6 script in the Development and just cut out everything after installing prerequesites. It probably installs the JDK and the SDK among everything else, and it probably wouldn't hurt with the other things that installs, too. Just cut out everything after the prerequesites (it's just a regular text file but it'll be easier to edit in Ubuntu with OpenOffice).
Also check out http://maketecheasier.com/install-android-sdk-in-ubuntu-karmic/2010/01/11. As far as I know it worked when I tried it.

A good website to learn about ADB

Been reading a lot of mods here and that ADB thing seems to be a common link for them. Can someone help me learn about it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=690362
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
Couple of links to get you going.
Edit...you can get the atrix specific drivers in the op of the ginger theme rom.....among other places.
Also, the location to run commands from, or to set your path to in Windows so you don't have to be in a particular directory, was changed from tools to platform-tools and I didn't check that link I posted to see if it reflected this change.

Ok, this doesn't seem that difficult to figure out. I don't have my Atrix yet though, so there's only so much I can do. However, I do hope to figure enough out by then.

[Q] execute a file remotely

Hi there,
I have an (hopefully easy) problem which I am searching the answer for hours now.
I want to use my android device (4G Systems One Tab) to remotely execute a batch file on my PC via WIFI-Connection.
That's it.
I want to have an Icon on my homescreen and when its clicked the batch-file on the desktop computer is executed. (no feedback or output needed, this is all done by the batch)
I would be grateful if anyone could provide me with a solution or even an idea to find the way.
Thanks
HagbardC
I don't have much experience in bash script but I do know that a software by the name of Script Manager is available in the market and might just help you achieve your goal.
Now with Script Manager you can execute a script you created and place it on a shortcut on the desktop of your phone. The bash script would do any type of calls it needs to do to the PC. As long as your firewalls are well configured and you have port forwarding on the router (if needed) or your on the same wifi network you should be able to do as you need with the tool.
Now also remember, you might want to consider rooting your phone so you can have busybox installed and have a good amount of commands available to you.
Thank you, that was of help. Problem solved.

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but this is my problem exactly as well. I want to run a script to execute a .bat file from my computer.
Could you please go into more detail about HOW you configured "Script Manager"?
Possibly share your script so I can change it to fit my information.
Anyone? Please help.
Thanks.

Package index of all system apps

Hello!
I'm currently modding a fireTVstick and I've run into some problems. I hope someone here can help me. Thanks in advance!
I'm going to explain this in detail so to have some context but the ideea is that I need a way to understand what each package does, not only on a fireTVstick but on Android in general
I'm trying to uninstall the package(s) that has/have to do with the startup screen where you are asked to select the language and wifi network followed by updates check and I managed to do this by using this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/general/disable-bloatware-2nd-gen-fire-tv-stick-t3674629
Why I need to uninstall these packages is a whole other story, which is quite long and doesn't really matter. I'll explain it if anyone is curious.
It uninstalled a lot more than I needed and I am trying to follow it step by step, package by package.
The ideea is, though, to get an index of the amazon packages so to see exactly what I am uninstalling and what not, since some of these are not really self-explanatory.
I found this index https://developer.android.com/reference/packages but it seems to lack all amazon apps.
So is there any way to find and index or at least to understant what each of these packages do?
Hope this is a right place to post this, I don't really know my way around with forums so if I did something wrong please give me a heads up and I'll delete this. Aldo posted on FireTV forum but it's kinda dead there.
Thank you! :fingers-crossed:
