It will get logcat from a mobile which is not working bootanimation? Phone freeze in splash screen. I need advice.
Thanks
Do you have adb working on your PC? If so then you can do adb logcat - d > logcat.txt.
If not then you need to get it working on your PC. There are several tools in this forum that you can use that will help you with this or you can install the SDK and use it from there.
I would suggest that you do a google search on what things you should install to get yourself up and running.

It should be. ADB drivers are functional. I got logcat before because I was trying to fix bootloop. I just modified only the bootclasspath in boot img. And I will try it again. If it works I'll let you know.

It does not work. Should I compile it again? Previously worked bootanimation, but once I rewrote the "init.rc" problem. Huawei phone freezes at boot logo (splash screen). If I compile it again, I do not know where to find the jelly bean source (on github) for htc desire z? HTC Desire Z has been the same chipset as my Huawei u8800 (Ideos X5). You do not know what should I do now? and in the terminal:

That's an issue on your pc not on the device. You probably don't have adb setup in your PATH so it can't be called from just anywhere. You either need to add it to your path or go to the folder that has adb in and run the commands from there.

To the OP, I don't know if this is the case for you but I changed my path on my Windows PC like the guides said to and that didnt completely work. (Maybe neede a restart). But in any case if you go to the command prompt, change directories to were you have adb and run your commands from there, it works like a charm.
For example if you unzip the the SDK in your download directory, open up the command line and type:
cd C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\Downloads\<whatever-you-named-the-unzipped-folder>\tools
ADB is in the tools directory you just went to. From here you can run the adb command without having to set up the system paths. This is a quick and dirty explanantion and might not even work for you. I was running this on Windows XP when I had this problem. Same thing had to be done on my Ubuntu Linux box b/c I'm to lazy to set up paths on that one, lol.

Oops, didnt see that you allready posted this. Yea do what zephiK says and it should work.
i have not been able to get adb to work no matter what i did (i am using xp) and i have been trying since i had the htc magic last year. here is how i recently got it working.
i downloaded the one-click root zip file and unzipped it. inside there is a adb.exe file. i clicked it and then then made sure my phone was in debugging mode and connected to my pc and used the command prompt to point to where adb is in my android sdk which for me is cd\androidsdk\tools
adb devices
i hit enter after tools and enter after devices and now it works. not sure why but it does. i couldnt get my magic, my nexus one or even the galaxy to work until i did this.
i got everything done. i think? only problem is im getting $ sign instead of # sign. any ideas?
i got adb working. thanks everyone.
A thread success story without any casualties. Almost makes me weep.
Alrighty, I am new to the linux world and I am trying to setup my beloved adb on my Ubuntu. Java is there, SDK in in /opt/androidsdk. Do I need something more? I read that people install Eclipse also but since I am not a developer I don't need it, do I? I only need to execute very simple adb commands like push.
With Windows I needed the HTC Hero drivers and then it worked like a charm. Do I need something similar here?
I tried to run adb devices while my phone was connected and I get a phone with ?????????? as a name.
Is adb going to work or do I miss something?
Thanks in advance!
Adb works fine on x64 Ubuntu. I know there is a guide for it on www.villainrom.co.uk/wiki, but then search "adb" and it should bring up the entry.
I'm installing Ubuntu again today anyway, so I can check it works (which it does btw)

Try doing this.
sudo adb kill-server
sudo adb root
then do w/e you need to do. This worked for me.
Not sure if you need to sudo kill-server, if it doesnt kill it, try without

I did this followed by adb devices and I now get the correct device name.
I guess that it works though I didn't try to push any app
Another question: how do I add adb to the path? I currently need to type in the full adb path. It is linux related but I am new into this exciting world!!

Google "Ubuntu add to path" and it will tell you
Hi.
It's not first time for me to root or flash rom or sth like that.
It's also not the first time for me to use the adb.exe or the android sdk.
Today, I installed the sdk and the java and everything I need. Everything works great until I tried to use the adb.exe.
When I click on adb.exe, it pop out for a second and then disappear. I can see a lot of commands within that second.
Then I try to use cmd and the commands are the following:
Code:
-d - directs command to the only connected USB devic
e
returns an error if more than one USB device is
present.
-e - directs command to the only running emulator.
returns an error if more than one emulator is r
unning.
-s <serial number> - directs command to the USB device or emulator w
ith
the given serial number. Overrides ANDROID_SERI
AL
These commands are obviously the command: [abd help]
Why the hack would they show out instead of running the normal adb.exe???
Also, any other adb command turns to the same things above( result of the [abd help] command)
Need help, can't use any adb functions..........................
What command are you typing? What guide are you following? This is all very vague!

What do you mean run adb.exe?
adb.exe doesn't run, its a service.
you should set it up your path on your computer to make life easier.
Open a command prompt (search for cmd in start menu) and type "set PATH=%PATH%;C:\sdk\whateverthepathis"
Then once that is set you can just type adb into command without the need for writing the whole path every time.
Like C:\sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe\adb devices becomes adb devices.

Ya I thought you were going to the platform-tools folder and clicking adb.exe the icon.
Well try set up the path so you don't need to type all the long path to adb.exe whenever you want to use it.
When you set it up all you need to type in is adb devices. That's it.
Its up to you though.

solved issue
Hi guys,
EDIT: See the last posts - I have figured this out, and tried to include helpful information, if you are having this problem too.
Firstly please accept my apologies if this has been answered already. I have searched the forum, and the Internet, and cant find specific instructions, or a guide that I can follow with any success.
I stupidly deleted system files from my Kindle, but now I have purchased a fastboot cable, and I'am able to get it into fastboot mode.
I have correctly installed the ADB Drivers, and the device is now recognized by my Windows 7 Device Manager. It shows 'Android ADB Interface'.
I would guess that I need to flash the entire Kindle, but I'm unsure of how to do this, as I cannot seem to access the device at all. It currently loops when booting, giving me no time to see it as external storage via My Computer.
Please would someone more versed in this, guide me specifically through how to get myself back up and running again? I would be forever greatful.
I have SDK and JDK installed, but do not have the knowledge I need to learn how to use them properly.
Thanks so much in advance.

You definitely need the fastboot cable to push files through the ADB Interface dude. You can buy one for dirt cheap on EBay. Then all you do is simply plug it into your PC and Kindle, and it should put the Kindle straight into Fastboot mode.
Then you need to install the ADB Drivers for the Kindle.
From there, I'm stuck I'm afraid.

OK，I think I'm gonna get one and give it a try. the only way to fix this brick is in the ADB Interface I'm sure. though I also don't know How to do.
I've finally figured out how to get ADB up and running, and how to start command prompt. I found this link helpful:
developer.amazon.com/public/resources/development-tools/ide-tools/tech-docs/05-setting-up-your-kindle-fire-tablet-for-testing
If anyone needs help pushing files through ADB, I recommend that link!
Do the following to detect your Kindle Fire tablet through ADB:
Open a command prompt window.
Change directory to your Android SDK platform-tools directory. - To do this, find out where SDK is installed on your PC. Copy the path.
Type cd in command prompt, then space, then paste the directory path. EG, C:\Users\Administrator\sdk\platform-tools
Hit enter, and the command line will change to read C:\Users\Administrator\sdk\platform-tools.
Run the following commands and confirm that the serial number for your Kindle Fire tablet appears in the list of devices.
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices
Then follow the rest of the guide. I think all you need to to do, is push a system update through, by putting the file in the tools folder of SDK. This should make the device update, and put back any critical system files that you had previously deleted.
Now I'm just having issues with it finding the device, so I'm going to charge the Kindle for a few hours, and then try it again.

In command prompt, there is an ADB push command, so I think all you do is type that, then the path of the file.
To list all the commands you can use, change command prompt to your platform-tools folder within SDK, type ADB in command prompt, and it will give you all the options.
You'll need to unzip the update file first I think.

Working with the HDX 8.9.
I think I have deleted some of the system files also. I was reloading a safestrap backup and rebooted but the backup had failed to complete. I don't know what may be missing from the system files and would like to push the system files onto the device.
Right now I get a gray kindlefire screen for about 90 seconds, during which I have adb access, then it goes to the color kindlefire screen and asks if I want to Restore to Factory Defaults or reboot. I finally subjected it to the Restore to Factory Defaults, but that just wiped the cache and data partitions, I don't see where it did anything to the system files. It did not change my adb access.
In adb I can push files to some locations but others say: failed to copy ....: Read-only file system.
I cannot run shell commands
# adb shell
soinfo_link_image(linker.cpp:1617): could not load library "/vendor/lib/libNimsWrap.so" needed by "/system/bin/sh"; caused by load_library(linker.cpp:745): library "/vendor/lib/libNimsWrap.so" not foundCANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE
I was working in Windows 8.1 but have switched to Suse Linux but the results are the same so far.
I have the stock system files but I am not sure how to push them to the device, if it can be done, while the device is trying to reboot.
fastboot
I can put the HDX in Fastboot mode with the adb command. But when I try to pass commands to the HDX I get:
< waiting for device >
and I have to Ctrl-c to stop the process.
Do the fastboot commands only work if you have a fastboot cable???

Hello all
So here I am in my first topic :laugh:
For Mac users can be tough to work with commands, which most of it has to be done in order to perform stuff in our Moto X.
Instead of having to mount virtual machines in order to have access to Windows' stuff. Or the Android SDK has to be installed, browse to specific folders to run commands from them, etc.
We can work directly in our precious Terminal! :victory:
So, I made a little script that will allow Mac users to work directly on Terminal, no matter which folder we are working on. I've included the following files:
adb
fastboot
mfastboot (Motorola's modified version of fastboot)
To Install
Run Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app)
Browse to the folder in which the script resides, i.e., if it’s in Desktop, then type in Terminal “cd Desktop/ADBInstall” (without quotes).
To run the script type “./install.sh” (without quotes).
You will see input on the screen.
That’s it
To Uninstall
You can safely remove the 3 files in one command, just run the uninstall.sh script by following step 1 and 2 from the Install section. Instead of following step 3, type the following in Terminal: “./unistall.sh” (without quotes).
Hope you like it
Hey, thanks for creating this script. However, I am running into a problem. I run ./install.sh, it runs through the install text, but when I try to run an adb command to test it out, I get the following error: -bash: ./adb: No such file or directory. I went into /usr/bin/ and adb, fastboot and mfastboot all show up there and can run when I'm in the directory, but if I'm outside of the directory, it won't run. Any suggestions? Cheers.

It's weird, though.
Did it ask for your password? You can force root access by typing: "sudo ./install.sh" instead.
Can you show me your input screen on Terminal after running the installer?

Thanks for looking into this for me. Yes, it did ask for my password. Here is what I get after running the installer:
Jareds-MBP:ADBinstall Jared$ ./install.sh
This will install ADB, Fastboot and mFastboot on your computer.
Root Permissions required. Please type your password.
Password:
Changed directory to /Users/Jared/Desktop/ADBinstall
Copying ADB...
ADB copied to /usr/bin/adb
Copying Fastboot...
Fastboot copied to /usr/bin/fastboot
Copying mFastboot...
mFastboot copied to /usr/bin/mfastboot
You may now run Android Debug Bridge, Fastboot and mFastboot commands
Have a nice day
I'm attaching a screenshot of the output as well, but that is the output I get, which seems correct.
Np! Yes, it seems correct.
So, if you run, let's say, "adb devices" you get the bash error?
Did you try to close session and open a new one?

Exactly. adb devices has been my test command. Yeah, I tried closing out the session, I logged off using the 'exit' command and quit Terminal.
Just odd that it installs fine and shows up in /usr/bin, but I can't get it to work. I am running the beta of OS X Yosemite, but I doubt that would impact anything, since it installs.
Hmmm... Weird stuff.

Really weird! I'm using Mavericks, but I also doubt this may cause the script not to work.
Here's my Terminal window running from my user's main folder.
I don't know what else to try man. The only option is to take them out of usr/bin and just create a "work" folder to use them. That's how I started
