i need to install a terminal program on my PC and tweak my android phone through it. i'm rooted. how do i do this and what programs do i need to download?
you dont need any downloads or at least not for easy tweaking...just type cmd or terminal emulator on your pc search and youll find it and you will need mostly the android sdk(found on the google home page) and to do some ubuntu codes you can download cywin...if you really want to dev well do a virtualbox with ubuntu on it....you can find good howto's on this page: freeyourandroid.com

Hmm, at least "important update" explains that it's not vnc.
Got to take a closer look at it.
Open androidVNC from your android programs menu.

All the steps seems to be for a linux distro, on a computer..

No he seems to set up VNC server on he's debian on phone and then connect to it from VNC client on he's Android OS.
Just a trick so he doesn't need any special drivers to use debian GUI on he's mobile phone.
Anyway, to install debian shell you need to have firmware that supports LOOP features. I'm not sure if I want to switch amon_ra.
Could anyone recommend such a firmware for HTC Hero?
Try linux img. You will need loop module
Got shell finally working
i am missing one called ADB and High Tech Computer lol any idea how to get them
http://www.htc.com/us/support/thunderbolt-verizon/downloads/
you need HTC Sync.
If you download this it will allow you to just install those drivers you need and not HTC sync itself.
still does not have those 2 drivers
Do you have ADB installed? Have you downloaded the Android-SDK for Windows? Without that, you aren't going anywhere with ADB.

hmmm it did for me, but read below. Also, if it still says it isn't installed, go to device manager and right click on the ?ADB and click install drivers, and tell it browse your computer and chose drive C: and click OK. It should find the drivers.

first thing you need to do is this, download the SDK, put it where ever you want, and then run the program inside the main folder, which will update everything.
i think it installed when i installed htc sync i did the sdk thing with the nexus s so maybe that worked out but the high tech computer does not want to i am trying to tether from where you plug it in to the comp and on the TB show what you want to do like like mount etc...

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)

Moving to Q&A

You can use apkInstaller Application in mac.
It has GUI.
It's here:

I have done some searching but I have a time constraint so I am hoping someone can assist me. We are looking into supporting Android at our facility whether it be employee owned or company purchased. My question is how do you register Google Play to download the MDM app it you do not have or want a gmail account? Or how do I install my custom app on a tablet without an SD card or "Astro File Manager"
I have put the APK file in the Downloads folder but that does not work.
How are you registering devices under a Corporate identity?
Thaks for any assistance.

Adb install apkname.apk

Hi
I'm feeling like a complete idiot here but I cannot find the android drivers, specifically; android_winusb.inf which I need to modify to root my tablet.
I get to here 'C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio' and there's no SDK tools folder, no extras folder, nothing; just 'bin', 'gradle', 'lib', 'licence' and 'plugins'. I can run SDK via Android Studio and I've uninstalled and reinstalled the USB driver but I've no idea where it is.
Am I running a newer version of Studio? Has implementation of SDK changed? This is on Win8 64 bit.
Any help much appreciated
@Badmiker,
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.
On my PC, android_winusb.inf is here:
Code:
[path]\android-sdk-windows\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
...[path] being the folder on my hard drive in which I've placed my android-sdk-windows folder.
Thanks
I eventually found it down in Users\Blah\Appdata\Local\Android...
I've modified the USB driver to include the devices codes but it's not showing up in 'Fastboot devices' though it is in 'adb devices'
Can I root from here?

I think so, yeah, but I'd need your specific device name to know for sure.

Z4root works, just don't mess with the CPU. I did and it's been buggy. I'm trying to figure it out. I'm also looking for a recovery/ROM that works but no luck on that. When you root it, download superSU and busybox if you can get the pro versions.

Here's the Z4Root thread.
Thanks for the help.
I've run z4, without any success, and pushed via adb. All proceed fine but 'root checker' and Titanium say that neither tablet is rooted...
Very frustrating!
Any suggestions on what else I can do would be great....
