I have recently rooted my 2.1 ota 1.49 hboot. flashed cyantazzv2, OC 806mhz. kevlarfroyo v3.
What I am interested in, is learning more about adb
lehmans terms please.
I used an app off the market, a 1 button push root process, so any adb stuff I had bypassed.
Thanks in advance
Man you're going to get crucified....Google is your friend.
Its how most of us figured it out.
I say this because what you are asking can easily be found and figured out with a simple search on Google.

Yes google is your friend quit being lazy and search. It took me 20 mind of read to learn everythong about adb commands
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
Or hell, type adb into your command line / terminal and it will explain all the commands...
Research the old "how to root" and follow some of the steps (the ones that don't require doing anything to your phone). Download SDK and Java JDK to your computer. Set up the drivers. Now.....Google!

But if you rooted your phone than surely you must have used adb so as with any command line protocol ie Linux I always typed "help" and learned a lot just from that so try adb help

Don't be douches and flame this guy for asking more about adb and debugging. Yes it may be in the wrong section of the forums but we're all here for the same reason. Only flamers flame, so don't be a flamer.
Here is a link to the adb commands. If you need more information google it and im sure you will find it. Otherwise you're welcome to PM me or come into the andirc chat that is listed in my signature.

Cause no one bothers to google it or search the forums. How hard is it to do it especially adb commands. I would understand if it was something more complicated but its not.

99% or more of the time, the effort that goes into flaming someone could have been more than enough to answer the question in the first place. I am very technical-minded so I easily get frustrated by some questions, but why actually be so negative when you could give some useful information like Andrew did... a push in the right direction AND a hint to Google for more information without getting on a high horse.
My observations leads me to the simple answer that sometimes we all need reminded of our alternatives. I have almost 30 years technical experience and sometimes I still have to take a step back and realize that I can easily solve something myself by taking a different route.
A lot of people aren't being lazy, they just aren't search gurus, which is an art, not a science. I will also say that most forum's search functions lack the power to really effectively narrow down search results for some things. Now I'm going get of my own soapbox and try to continue being constructive.

Well since no one will actually explain ill put adb into lehmans terms, ADB is the Android Debug Bridge and is part of the Android SDK . It allows a developer to push files to certains parts of the phones memory, boot to the bootloader, enter shell commands, and much more. ADB is simply an interface for a developer to send commands and to test things without opening a terminal on the phone or using an emulator
Thanks Cap.... I truly wanted to know why an how it worked, not just told what to do. You gave me general understanding, I commend you my friend
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
yeah, adb just tells you everything. adb shell is direct access to a terminal that is on phones filesystem
No problem, glad I could help
I recommend downloading root explorer. A lot (not all) of the adb commands do the same thing that root explorer allows you to do. It allows you to open and view, modify, delete, and replace system files. I use it to change my boot animations, delete unwanted system apps, change Verizon (or whatever appears) on the lockscreen to my own personal message, and copy system files (i.e. the rom I'm on now has some sweet ringtones I've never had access to. So I'll copy them to the sd in case I decide to change roms in the future).
Beware....like adb commands, if you change or delete the wrong file you can brick your phone. So, like I said earlier, you still need to do some research.
PM me if you need help and I'll do what I can.

It gives very in depth info on android deving, and is a great help! Otherwise, you can download a kitchen (go to theunlockr.com and search android kitchen, or search the XDA forums for one that somebody created) and start cooking lol.!

Sorry it was an off day LOL. The for dummies book is good but the biggest issue I see people learning dev is Linux. Pick up a good book on Linux and setup your pc/mac with the appropriate software.

I disagree...unless your doing something with the kernel you don't need linux at all.
sent from my uncyanogen modded epic 4g. with the key skips.
You still need to understand how the system works. Side note since you mentioned kernels....most newer ROMs have certain kernels that work and some that don't. The dev process is about learning how it ALL works not just how to theme a ROM someone else made.
No offense but any moron can follow directions on how to modify someone's work and not know HOW it works. True talent is by understanding and creating something new and original even if based on someone else's idea.
Hence I say learn Linux at least enough to understand

I agree with the both of them. Windows and Linux are like riding a bike vs. Riding in a car, its like 2 completely different ways of getting to the same thing, just one is faster than the other! Now my only objection to pfroyjr's statement is that http://www.cygwin.com gives windows the main pieces of Linux! I have yet to use it, but from what I understand, its probably gonna save you a couple of Gigs in PC memory vs. Partitioning your hard drive to dual boot or installing a virtual machin via Virtual Box! Unless you are talking about learning how to build a rom all the way from planting a seed to watching the tree grow, you probably don't need to know every piece of linux! Also, with the help of various things like APK manager (which breaks down the compiled XML files for editing using a regular text editor, rather than some complicated software) the sky is the limit when it comes to theming!
So, to sum up my statement, and kinda piggyback on what the other 2 said, if you just want a slightly different LOOK, then Linux is not necessary. But if your trying to take the future of ROMs to a whole new level, you either need Cygwin or, as pfroyjr said, Learn Linux!

I am porting a rom over from another device. I need testers, as my phone is currently in Chicago. I require the testers to have knowledge of ADB and be able to provide detailed information on errors as well as logcat logs (I can help walk through getting logs via logcat). Also, you must have an understanding of the risk involved and have knowledge on how to restore your phone to working standards.
For more info, express your interest in the section below.
This rom is a port of the Acer Stream User Interface. It will be based on CM 2.3.

None yet, it's just a stock rom from the Acer Liquid Metal. The first step is getting a stable booting rom, then I can worry about adding other things.
holy crap. after watching that video, i may learn ADB just to get my hands on this, lol!
I have basic knowledge of adb. As in showing devices and using it to move stuff into the sd card and what not, but nothing of logcat errors. If you don't mind telling me how to do that, I would love to be your tester. I just need to know if there are any brick warnings dealing with this.
"adb logcat" is pretty much it. I will send you a link to the project page when I get the next release up.

Noob here,
I've looked and looked and haven't seen anything definitive. I have a Samsung GS II (I-777). Someone had rooted my phone for me a while back but now I want to un-root it. I only have access to Mac and have NO idea how to. Everything on here seems to be written in a different language lol. What's the easiest and most simplest way to do this? Sorry if this is repetitive. Thanks in advance!
Rooting is such an easy proccess. Looking at you, I would not recommend it doing by yourself. Rooting will not get you on any legal issue other than warranty cancelation. If you still insist look at the stickied threads in this forum. I myself would like to explain it, but I can't explain it better.

Not sure if a virtual machine of Windows would work but I would give that a try if your hell bent on un-rooting.

What I meant was that rooting is easy to do. And nothing negatives comes out of it unless you want to get the phone back to store... Since it's a mac and he doesn't have much knowledge of rooting, just let it be.

Well, "looking at you" made me go Whaaaat??? myself. Odd snap judgement from reading one post, which was pretty well phrased from what I saw.
Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434020 which should help - and this thread says it should work with MacOS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432. You'll need to do some more searching and learning (start with the sticky at the top of the general forum). If you don't feel confident doing this, then don't. You really aren't going to gain anything by it unless you have a specific need. Or expand on what you're looking for and maybe we can help.
BTW if you don't use it, the difference between root and unrooted is zero AFAIK. Root just lets you do more, but it's still stock i777 if that's all "someone" did.
Well, the thing is, the root that this person did (not me lol) has disabled my wifi. It's the ZedomaxStockKernel. I did some research on this and it seems that using this method renders the wifi useless. I clearly don't know what I'm doing but will read more in regards to this. Again, I've had the phone rooted for about a month now and I haven't done anything different. (Maybe because I don't know how) I wouldn't mind leaving it rooted but if I could fix the wifi issue, that would be great and then maybe I can learn further about this whole root thing. Reading through the forums though, most people rooting have Windows and not Macos. Which kind of leaves me feeling alone lol

Go into the siyah thread (you can do it on your phone). Download the ATT tar file. Open up mobile odin, select kernel. It will open a window to find your kernel. If you download from the xda app it will be in tapatalk_downloads I think. Select siyah_2.1.13 (or whatever it is). Go down to the bottom where it says flash firmware, hit it. If done correctly, the phone will reboot and everything will be awesome
I'll keep an eye on this thread tonight in case you have further questions.
Forgot to mention, the siyah thread is here in the i777 forum, more specifically look in the development section. The download link is in the first post.

Okay I understood almost everything you wrote! Let me start by saying thank you! Couple of questions so I don't screw something up!
1. Should I download the .tar file directly to my phone? Would that be easiest?
2. I can't seem to find the thread in the development section, care to spoon feed me?
Lastly, when I googled Siyah it gave my a website but I don't know if that's reliable or not.

Not to sound mean... But if you are asking about basic stuff, you might want to:
- Read some threads before you start flashing
- use the search function
- follow the thread instructions following the above two suggestions.

I agree with this POV.
If someone is having trouble simply installing/updating CWM, they absolutely need to do more reading, or chances are they will badly mess up their phone.
Using ODIN and installing CWM are rooting 101, and I would advise any SGS3 user to make sure they know these 2 bits of software inside and out, before jumping into CM9/CM10, as both are not fully stable, and will require additional knowledge to get them working correctly, if it is yet possible given the current build states of each.
If CWM installs, or ODIN flashes are not pieces of cake for you, you should probably pick a different ROM until they are.
Yes we all started somewhere, but a big tip from experienced users to noobs, is to learn how to swim, before jumping in the deep end. And CM9/CM10 is definitely the "deep end" of the Android pool, at least until the builds reach RC status, if not at least beta, as things wont work, or are yet to come upstream.
It takes as much time to flame as it does to post helpful advice. How do you want to be remembered?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Telling some one that cant swim, how to jump into the deep end, is not my idea of "helpful" advice.
Sometimes the "helpful" advice is.. "you are not ready yet"
It may not be what the person wanting to jump into the deep end wants to hear, but it may save their phone, until they know what they need to, to get where they want to be.

I know the sense of panic you have when you trash your phone, here's hoping some users understand that by searching first, almost 98% of the answers are out there.

Again, to anyone seeing this, not trying to be a **** here, but the search function really has tremendous value when looking, don't just try one term, use several variants of terms when searching.

What exactly do you need a guide for, upgrading CWM?
I take you are rooted, what version of CWM do you have, and what version are you trying to upgrade to?
What version & build of CM are you trying to install, the file name should give the specifics?
Does the ODIN count matter to you?
okay download CWM for your phone from :http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager
Rename it to recovery.img , and copy the file to your phone's internal /sdcard
Grab android terminal emulator from the play store and run the same commands starting with su in the box below.
just type: su
then
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
