this is about wiping, hmm how would i adb wipe this LOLOL .. i wiped my sensation that was broken accidently wiping system now it's stuck at boot and broken ahha
i dont know what the aplpciation is called its when you can view your phones screen and control it on your computer
With no screen, you cannot set up screen viewing software.
You'd need to boot into download mode and flash cwm / philz recovery. Then boot into recovery, connect via usb. Adb commands (which you can Google) can be used to delete anything in /data

So i can't tell when i'm in recovery or not, but
do i hold home + vol up + Power
wait
run adb and then find the command to wipe data?
i can't tell because i can't see anything
Im using wondershare mobileGo
would it be the same if i just wiped the data folder in the internal memory?
i want to make a factory reset but i can't since i don't know how via computer, i dont want whoever gonna buy my phone to go through my accoutns and all
Well you can run the command "adb devices". It won't work until you're in recovery.
Hold vol up, home and press power. Connect the usb. Run adb devices and see if it returns your serial number. If it does its connected and you're in recovery

Once in adb shell (which i'll assume you've learnt about) you just run standard linux terminal commands (case sensitive)
rm -vR /data/.*
rm -rf /data/*
You can ls /data to confirm (that's LS)

do i just paste when i have my phone connected and all when im in adb shell?

If you "know about adb" you know what adb shell is. Adb shell is where you type the commands.

i know i can adb pull but what would be the command to actually browse the system...
Use the command "adb shell" and browse as you would on your OS through the command prompt.
ex: for PCs for listing use the command "dir" and "cd" to navigate through folders
ex: for Macs you would have to use "ls"

Try restoring the parts manually using an "advanced restore". that should work.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356401&highlight=md5
and this tutorial on how to use ADB
Check if your phone is detected by ADB
Open up Command Prompt (Go to run, type in cmd, press enter)
Type in:
cd C:\**your sdk name**\tools (Press Enter)
adb devices (Enter) You should see your device listed
adb shell (Enter) you should see $ in the next line
**After you obtain root**
su (Enter) you should see # in the next line if you are already rooted
**you may need to allow adb shell to run as root. Look at the phone and see if Superuser.apk is asking for your permission to allow adb root access. Click on "Remeber my selection" and select yes.
Now you are all set to run adb commands as root or as a regular user
# cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-06-29.20.22.53
# rm nandroid.md5
# md5sum *img > nandroid.md5
**Note: for a list of commands that you can type using adb type "adb" in cmd
The screen is black and doesn't operate when you touch it.
I know you can get into the files using the recovery ...but I don't know how many volume ups and downs you need to get into it?
I am running the 5.0 JB CM10 recovery.
Volume up + volume down + power button if froyo bootloader
Volume down + power button if gingerbread bootloader

What he is asking is, since he can't see the screen, he needs to know exactly the number of up or down spaces to get to.....
And this brings my question, where are you trying to get to in recovery?

If you want to copy all your files from the internal storage using ADB: Reboot into CWM and connect it to your PC. In the command prompt, type:
adb shell
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(that's the partition of the internal storage in my vibrant)
exit
adb pull /sdcard C:\backup
(make sure you create the C:\backup folder first, it will begin to copy everything from your phone's storage to your harddrive)
-----
Optional: Once you are in adb shell, you can type this:
cat /etc/fstab (it will tell you the location of each partition that you can mount)
cd /sdcard (go to /sdcard partition)
ls -la (display all files in current directory)
Just remember to use 'adb pull' or 'adb push' you need to exit adb shell first.
Or just:
1. Pull battery
2. Attempt to get into recovery by guessing.
3. Adb shell Into device.
3.b if adb can't find device, go back to 1
4. Adb pull /storage/sdcard0/ or adb pull /sdcard/
It will be in the folder containing the adb file.

that /storage directory is new thing in Jelly Bean, I guess it does make things easier for people, instead of /sdcard and /emmc. It's a symbolic link, I don't even see it in adb shell.
The CWM doesn't auto mount the internal storage, so you still have to mount it first.

Maybe your GS3 uses MTP rather than mass storage.
Try: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, B, A

Hello im trying to pull a file from my phone with adb but its not working (picture)
What am i doing wrong? ??
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Too many adb's.
You're already in adb shell. adb is not a comnand within adb.
What I mean is adb is a programme. You start it from a command line with "adb shell". Think of it as meaning "adb start". When you run a command from cmd, you tell it the programme and the option. So you tell it "adb shell" and it opens adb shell. You tell it adb pull and it does a pull, but this only works when you're not in the adb shell.
So if you want to run adb commands within the shell, drop the "adb". The command starts "pull" because you're already running adb. If you want to run outside the shell, you need to define the programme with "adb pull"
Personally I work this way
adb shell
mount /system
exit
adb pull /system/app/SecSettings.apk c:\users\dan\desktop
But I could also
adb shell
mount /system
pull /system/app/SecSettings.apk c:\users\dan\desktop

Hi
First of all, sorry for my bad english.
It has been several hours that i'm trying to find a solution to my problem.
I want to wake my nvidia shield via adb command throught network.
I installed android tools on my raspberry pi, and when i connect to it via command line everything work, i can wake up the Shield.
But when i put my command line in a bash script
Code:
#!/bin/bash
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb connect 192.168.1.38:5555
adb shell input keyevent KEYCODE_WAKEUP
adb kill-server
i have this error :
Code:
error: device unauthorized.
This adb server's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set
Try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong.
Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device.
I dont know why, when i am execute the command line in a bash script it can't find the rsa key, who is there and should be used.
Any ideas
Thanks in advance.

Normally on Windows the first time you turn on usb debugging it will pop up and ask you to accept the adb key. This is what is preventing you, I haven't had to resolve this in Linux, but essentially you need to go to C:\\Users\You\.android\ (in Windows, path will be different in Linux) and copy the file adbkey. Now you need to move it to data/misc/adb/
This will most likely require root or TWRP. Good luck, my friend.

I couldn't make the connection via USB my adb tells me that there is no emulated device. But it work with network And yeah the first time I made the connection, the authorization pop up appeared on my shield. I checked, always authorized this device.
I have the key in /root/.android on my raspberry pi
I don't think I have the access to the /data/ folder in my shield.
But what I don't understand is why when I execute the command in a terminal like that, it work and when it's from the bash script it won't work anymore

Option B would be to dump your boot.img and use Assayed's kitchen to add insecure kernel and adb direct root, then the adbkey doesn't need to be on the device.

Yeah as you said in your previous post, i think the solution is to root the nvidia shield cause the rsa key doesny copy itself on the device.
But would you able to explain to me why if i execute those command individually in the terminal it works.
But if i put them all in a bash script that i execute it doesnt work anymore, what's the difference between those two procedure ?

I don't really understand why, but adding
Code:

before
Code:

resolved the problem, maybe the script execution was to fast for adb to adjust, dont know.
