[Q] soft bricked android tablet - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been recently messing with a Verizon ellipsis 7, it is rooted and I was trying to install some android 5.0 apps, boot animation, and fonts. Well I got a bootloop so I adb'd in and undid my modifications by pushing my backup of /system. Well that is where I went wrong Im guessing, I know have no access to adb shell, everytime I give that command I get this error
Code:
C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb shell
soinfo_link_image(linker.cpp:1635): could not load library "libc.so" needed by "
/system/bin/sh"; caused by load_library(linker.cpp:757): too small to be an ELF
executable: libc.soCANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE
Next I did adb pull /system/lib/libc.so and it is 0k in size. Now here comes the interesting part I did not modify my tablet yet to allow me to run adb in root mode so I cannot push the correct libc.so file to regain access to the adb shell. I am now stuck on the android screen (it is just stuck there not looping) can not run adb logcat because I have no access to shell and cannot push anything to the /system folder because I cannot run adb as root. So what do yall think, am I screwed?

Anyone have any idea?

im in the same mess, i messed with my system directory, got stuck on the verizon screen adb'd a backup but no go. wish i could help.
any idea of how to get root inside factory mode? my backup wasnt rooted

Did you try accessing adb while in recovery?
If I type adb devices it says list of devices and its empty..i thought its because I disabled usb-debugging...???
EDIT:
ok tried now and it worked...strange..ok happy anyways...

Glad it worked
I have the same problem as I renamed the framework-res.apk file and now stuck on boot screen...
How can I activate the USB debugging mode now if I cant access the settings tab in the GUI?
How can I restore the framework-res.apk ????
Also adb shows no Device?
Please help!!!
Do adb kill-server and then adb devices again, should work.

Did you read the entire thread?
I can only see one page and I read it completely. Here is description of my problem:
I already rooted my kindle fire, downloaded android market I loggedin using a google account. After that I was unable to change the google account. Browsed web and I saw the post of the video. I followed the instructions in the video.
steps followed: using root explorer, went to /system/framework and renamed framework-res.apk and and after I completed the renaming, the device crashed (or I clicked something; hence crashed?) and stuck in blank carrousel page.
So, I rebooted and all I get now if boot logo of 'Kindle fire'. It doesnt go any forward.
I connected to PC and I am able to see the device in ADB. But no root access in shell. So, any adb command I give I get back errors like: no permission; read-only folder, etc.
When I use the Kindle fire utility v0.9.3 and try to do temp root or root, I get.
Error type 2 android.util.AndroidException: Can't connect to activity manager; is the system running?
adbd cannot run as root in production builds
PC detects the device as 'Android Composite ADB interface'. But cant do anything in adb. I can push files to /data/local/tmp folder. Thats about it.
when I do
adb shell mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak /system/framework/framework-res.apk
I get:
failed on '/system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak' - Read-only file system
Can someone help rename this file back to original framework-res.apk?
Thank you very much;
Oh! by the way, I also have a cable jigged as described in another thread. I plugged in the cable, did adb and the device is recognized. But no root access so all commands come back with permission denied; read-only file system, etc.

First off, you're asking for help on your Kindle Fire in a forum for the GT-I9100. Totally different device...
That said, if you're getting "failed on '/system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak' - Read-only file system", this means your system folder needs to be remounted as read/write before you are allowed to rename or otherwise alter files in the system folder.
You need to do "adb remount" before you do "adb shell mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak /system/framework/framework-res.apk"
EDIT: I'm also confused... Why the heck are you trying to rename framework-res.apk to solve what sounded like an issue with changing the google account attached to the device? No offense, but it doesn't sound like you should have root on your device at all. At least, until you understand what you're doing.
EDIT 2: Alternatively to the "adb remount", can you boot into recovery and rename the file there? I don't know anything about Kindle Fires, but on my I9100, I can boot to recovery, run an adb shell, and have root access to rename /system files once I remount.
But again, since you have a Kindle Fire, I don't know if that will work for you.
Is there a kindle fire forum?

Yikes. You really shouldn't be messing with root stuff if you have to ask this question. No offense - I'm not trying to be insulting.
Kindle Fire forum. Found by going to the forum home page and searching for the text "Kindle Fire" on the page.

[RESOLVED] Screen Broken - Data Recovery?

I've got a droid razr; rooted, stock rom
I broke the screen accidentally and now the screen isn't showing anything and touch isn't working.
I'd like to recover all the data off my device, but since it's locked, it won't budge. Drives won't mount when I plug it into my PC.
I've got a previous backup which is a little older, but i'm interested in backing up the actual databases (texts, call logs, etc) and system data too, along with my images and personal data.
Is there any way I can perform a whole backup while the system is locked like this?
I've already searched the forum for previous threads with similar issues, but I couldn't find one with a viable solution.
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.
Partial Update
Hey all-
I've partially solved my problem.
I was able to get ADB working miraculously. I downloaded the Motorola Device Manager and installed it, also downloaded the Android SDK/Java SDK;
Using the sdk manager i installed the google usb drivers (im not sure it helped any way, but just in case)
after that I ran through the process of adb
Code:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
**plug in device**
adb wait-for-device
adb get-serialno
From there I was able to use "adb shell" and navigate around the file system; used su, went to /data/system/ and did "mv gesture.key gesture.key.bak"
I then restarted my phone and did a repeat of wait-for-device, and get-serialno just to verify the phone was connecting properly.
I then browsed to my computer and amazingly, the drives mounted, my sdcard, and sdcard-ext as removable drives and I was able to view the contents.
-------
So now, I'm stuck here with a device that's NOT locked, I can view my files, and I can navigate the file system.
My end goal is to be able to copy everything from /data/ to /etc/ /system/ /root/ /sdcard*/ /vendor/ /xbin/ and any other system file that's not available through the mounted drives.
I'll keep this thread updated, and if anybody has any help or clue on how I'd do this, it'd be greatly appreciated.
So far I've tried variations on "adb pull" using / as a root dir; trying to find a way to use the shell to invoke scp, ssh, or some other file transfer, but I get no network connection. While in the adb shell and doing any file operations, I get an error stating that it's a read-only file system as well.
Fixed
I just wanted to let you all know that I've resolved my problem.
Let me state the issue again.
- Screen and touch broke.
- Device locked with pattern
- Rooted
- ICS - Stock Verizon ROM
- USB Mode was UMC, not PTP/MTP
- USB Debugging enabled
I used ADB to delete /data/system/gesture.key and rebooted, effectively removing the device lock, and allowing drives & data on my SD cards to show up in explorer after a reboot of the phone.
After futzing around for a bit, I realized the phone was tied to my Google account, and I remotely installed "Droid VNC Server" (app name org.onaips.vnc)
From there I found a way to activate the VNC server through the ADB command line
Source: android.stackexchange.com/a/31957
Code:
Application located in
/data/data/org.onaips.vnc/files
With a root shell, run this
chmod 766 /data/data/org.onaips.vnc/files/androidvncserver
Then you can execute the vnc server from the command line
/data/data/org.onaips.vnc/files/androidvncserver
Run this to forward the port
adb.exe forward tcp:5901 tcp:5901
On your VNC client, connect to localhost:5901
From there I was able to get access to my home screen and pulled the notification drop down and changed from USB Mass Storage to Camera/Media Mode
Rebooted the phone, started the vnc server again, connected to it and moved some files around to my SD Card
In another adb shell as root, I was able to copy files from /data/data/ (or anywhere else I wanted) and write them to anywhere on /sdcard-ext/
From there in another command shell, I ran adb pull /sdcard-ext/datafolderfile
=========================================================================
I believe this to be the overall gist of things, though I ran into hiccups along the way, while I was messing around, I changed some permissions which caused my su executable to break and only be allowed to run shortly after booting the phone; and also because of the broken screen, something would cause the phone to reboot every so often, breaking my connections, backups, file transfers, and etc
There's also a cool option in adb
Run
"adb backup" and it'll give you all the switches, you'll have to confirm the backup on your phone, so be sure to be running VNC and confirm it, but adb backup should be able to grab everything you need. Like I said it didn't work for me because my phone would reboot;
I hope everybody that sees this can benefit from it

[Q] Ematic EGS004 BU Rooting/Kernal Module Issue

Hello,
Veteran SW guy here; but newbie at Android.
I have three tablets. All of them are Ematic Model EGS004. All three were bought for the sole purpose of being used by children to watch educational videos (in mp4 and flv formats) and read PDF documents. Absolutely nothing else. No games. No internet access whatsoever. Etc.
Two of the tablets are still in the box and have not been touched. I'm hoping that they may be useful for making/restoring an original image of the tablets.
To implement the requirements of this project, I did the following to one of the tablets:
1) Used the instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2495069 to get root access with Cydia Impactor and Chainfire SuperSU.
2) Installed Titanium Backup (root). Using this, I uninstalled most of the Google applications (excluding Google Play), messager, YouTube, games, etc.
3) Installed File Manager (Explorer) by Rhythm Software.
4) Installed Shell Terminal Emulator by MobilDev. Using the shell, I went to the /system/lib directory and renamed libwifidisplay.so
and libwpa_client.so to libwifidisplay.disabled and libwpa_client.disabled.
Unfortunately, upon reboot, the tablet gets stuck in the bootup screen (with the ematic logo). Obviously, something about Android causes a hang if an expected kernel module is missing...
I tried using the shell in Cydia Impactor. But, the file system was read only. I tried:
mount -o rw,remount /system
But, I get an "Operation not permitted" since I am not root.
I downloaded the ADB bundle for windows at http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#download and successfully installed adb on my PC. I could get into a shell with the "adb shell" command. But, the /system/lib directory still is read only and I can't seem to remount it since I am not root.
I tried "adb remount". "Operation not permitted" was the result, again.
Cydia Impactor installs its "su" binary in /system/xbin. I tried running it from there using various invocations like "su -c mount -o rw,remount /system" Each time, the shell hung and I never got a shell prompt afterwards.
Questions:
1) Surely there's a way that I can get back in to rename these files now... I can "ls" them from the adb shell. I can pull them to my PC with adb pull. (adb put doesn't work either since the file system is read only.) Ideas?
2) Once I get this solved, what is the best way to get rid of the wireless capability so that children can never use it? I would like to move videos and PDF's between it and a PC strictly via USB.
3) Is there a way to image/restore one of the untouched tablets - or, for that matter, this one once its up and running like it needs to be?
Thanks everyone!
Jim
Let's try a simpler question since there have been no responses:
Once I get into a shell (non-root) using ADB or Cythia Impactor, I believe I can rename the files if I can only get SuperSU to work. However, when I invoke su, the shell hangs:
su -c ls
su
etc. All of these hang. I assume that SuperSU is waiting for a confirmation from the android display. But, since I'm stuck at the startup screen, there's never an opportunity. How can I get the shell to interact with me as root so that I can remount the file system as RW and rename files?
Thanks,
Jim

I rooted my son's EGS004, installed busybox, and played around with it without any apparent problem. When I rebooted it, I was prompted to set up the device then and every subsequent time I rebooted it. I could not install any apps and could not redo the Cydia Impactor rooting procedure. The reason was that /data was reporting itself as 0.00B in size. Factory reset didn't change anything. Ematic wants me to return it.
Your issue sounds different, but it could be something as simple as the device being very unforgiving. There's a pinhole with a reset button (never worked for me but tech support suggested it) which may help.

Kindle HDX 7''. Pushing system update files - Android ADB Interface - Bootloop -

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???

[HELP] S4 w SS broken screen. need to authorize ADB

I have an S4 with SS and a custom rom. Now the screen is broken, and I am trying to rescue data from it. I want to use adb to use a ScreenControl app but my computer is not authorized on the phone. Since I can't see the screen, I can't accept the security dialog when connecting through ADB and device is just shown as unauthorized.
I tried to use ADB shell when booted in SS recovery hoping to add my RSA of my computer to the adb_keys files on my phone, but when I use adn shell there I get an error CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: could not load library "libc.so" needed by "/sbin/sh"; caused by library "libc.so" not found
Any ideas how I can proceed?
For anyone in a similar situation: fixed this issue by pulling the adb_keys from my tablet that had authorized my comnputer via ADB. Pushed that adb_keys to my broken S4 from within safesatrap recovery. They could use ADB when phone booted into the rom to control via ScreenControl tool.
