How to pull/get the vendor folder and its files to your desktop via adb? (sharing) - One (M7) General

My phone is android 4.4 (HTC M7 802t), and this works on most of the android devices
Prepare a USB cable and a usb dongle and connect ur phone.
Your device should be rooted and installed some kinds of root browser i.e: SU Root Browser . Browse where the vendor folder is located (/vendor/)
On your desktop, adb should be installed.
If you're a mac user, "Android File Transfer" should be running, as macos cannot read android file system directly.
Open a terminal and cd to the folder where adb is located (in my case, /Users/cupcoker/Desktop/rom_compiling_necessary_files/platform-tools, this was shown:
[email protected] platform-tools % )
input adb commands:
Windows:
adb devices
Linux:
sudo adb devices
Mac:
./adb devices
it should show somehow:
List of devices attached
VG38KC924147 device
Windows:
adb pull /vendor C:\Users\{your_username}\Desktop\vendor
Linux:
sudo adb pull /vendor ~/Desktop/vendor
Mac:
./adb pull /vendor ~/Desktop/vendor
Finally, the terminal should output this, and viola! It's done successfully:
/vendor/: 67 files pulled, 0 skipped. 5.6 MB/s (95715627 bytes in 16.212s)

[solved/info] - adb with ubuntu

I am running ubuntu 9.04. I have eclipse and the Android s.d.k. set up and running perfectly. But I cannot figure out how to setup a.d.b.
I apologize for the new post, but I promise I have searched for hours on this forum and Google. All I found was info on installing on Windows, and fixing a.d.b that used to work but won't work now after updating to 9.04. Anybody have a tutorial or a fix that I might have missed? Thanks in advance.
there is nothing to set up just make shure it has execute permissions, thats what had me stumped LOL
#chmod +x adb
then just plug in the g1 (no drivers required) and
#adb whatever you want
but i was using arch :O
to make it easier copy the adb executable to /usr/bin and you can execute from any directory withoud using cd /directory
Code:
sudo cp /androidsdk/tools/adb /usr/bin
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/adb
that's how i use mine on my 8.10 and 9.04
Thanks guys, pretty sure it's working, just need to figure out how to connect to device. I will try your suggestions.
Done. Then I tried
#adb logcat
and i get
- waiting for device -
should I
#cd /bin
#adb logcat
?
I am following tutorials for windows, so it is kind of confusing. I don't think I can connect. I get

Any ideas?
I am using the Rogers v3 Rom with jf1.42 bootloader and the 2005 s.p.l
Would any of that matter.

Doubtful. I too am looking to get ADB running on my Ubuntu laptop, as it would save a bunch of time for me being able to use it instead of my slow windows computer (ADB is corrupted driver-wise on my main rig).
Anyone have any reasonable tutorials for lower-level linux users on Ubuntu 9.04 32-bit?
I have Ubuntu + SDK and I don't have any issue.
Are you sure you installed your SDk the correct way == you followed exaclty the android.com howto ?
it should work with ubuntu 9.04. Just follow this instructions to setup connection to your phone. mainly create rule for you device in udev.
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html
If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a rules file:
1. Login as root and create this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules.
For Gusty/Hardy, edit the file to read:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"
For Dapper, edit the file to read:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"
2. Now execute:
chmod a+rx /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules
reboot, then if you are still having problem after this, one more thing to try to start server swith sudo.
adb kill-server
sudo adb start-server

I think I did this part, I will double check. I did try sudo adb start-server, that didn't work. I will double check the rest. Thank you.
Oh that's why I never did it, I cannot find a rule for jaunty, only hardy, dapper, and gutsy.. I'll do more searching. Thanks for the idea.
Okay it works now. This is what I get
Code:
[email protected]:~$ adb start-server

THIS IS WHAT I DID:
created 2 files on my desktop named:
50-android.rules
51-android.rules
Then I edited both files to read:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"
Then I opened terminal and did this
Code:
[email protected]:~$sudo mv /home/chris/desktop/50-android.rules /etc/udev/rules.d
[email protected]:~$sudo mv /home/chris/desktop/51-android.rules /etc/udev/rules.d
Then I rebooted and It all worked. I am runnung ubuntu 9.04 jaunty jakelope(sp?)
Thanks for everyones help. Hope this helps someone else.

Thank you so much, this works perfectly. Bump for someone else finding this who needs it.
Yes it has to be rule 51, not 50 with Jaunty. Google doc is not up to date yet.
see this thread :
http://groups.google.com/group/andr...read/thread/ab6e89c4b51cd905/a05c2a749cd55b88

Ubuntu 9.04 already has a rules/50-something file so you need to make
sure that the android rule is > 50. Otherwise whatever you define gets
reset. We should update the doc to just state rule/51-android.rules
which will work right now till the base configuration changes once
again

Hmm thanks for the info. That's a new one.
Edit
Ok sorry a little OT, but I responded to this because I did not see an answer posted. I Seem to be having problems with posts showing up when I am logged in... but not when I am logged out... really weird. After I logged out at least another dozen posts showed up in this thread.
you need to change the rule from 50 to 51 on ubuntu 9.4
didnt realise the answer was posted sorry. but its def the right answer

[Q] Using a DROID X and MAC together is tough -- can someone help?

Too many threads... too many sites and PC options.
Here's my situation:
Droid X
Used the leak update... running 2.2 now.
Use a MAC. And have Terminal app on DX.
Have SBF file for 2.1 stock, have ZIP files of rooted 2.2's
Dont have custom recovery.
Dont care much about warranty or OTA... just want to be able to apply ZIPs.
I need to somehow either root my DX with Mac or Terminal app. Or flash the SBF to bring things back to 2.1.
Not sure what to do??? Please please help.
I am not familiar with terminal commands...so if you leave instructions that would be great.
-Roman
You follow the same ADB commands, more or less. Why not try something like Universal AndRoot though? Then you could just skip over it.
But, if you need to sbf, I would *think* you follow the Linux instructions.
1) download sbf_flash & sbf file
Code:
cd directory/where/these/are/located
./sbf_flash SBFfileLOCATION
The only way to SBF is to run windows through bootcamp or this http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-hacks/38671-flashing-sbf-mac.html . I am in the same boat as you luckily my girlfriend has a dell running Windows. You should also be able to root 2.2 using the Droid 2 method posted in this section http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=766767. I assume you have the SDK downloaded already? The Linux directions does not work for Mac.

I TRIED THAT, BUT THERE IS SOME ERROR THAT POPS UP... CAN'T DO IT. 2.2 ISN'T SUPPORTED... I THINK IT'S JUST FOR 2.1..
But, if you need to sbf, I would *think* you follow the Linux instructions.

SO THAT EASY? JUST TWO COMMAND LINES?
So, if I put the SBF on my desktop it would be:

Running ADB with Mac OSX and therefore rooting with the mac is EASY. Just make sure you have the Android SDK installed on your Mac. Make sure in your .bash_profile you have the path set to the tools directory of your SDK folder.
Since I can't tell if you have all this down, I'll give you the instructions on setting up adb on the mac (using terminal), then give you the directions I followed on rooting my Droid X from OSX (I am running 2.2 leaked).
Essentially follow these instructions (taken from tjrocks91 on droidforum... I'd link, but I am not yet allowed to post outside links on this forum):
1. Download the Android SDK for Mac OSX. (google it)
2. Extract the zip file to any destination on your Mac. *Remember its path!*
In the AndroidSDK folder, there will be a folder named “tools”. We will be adding this folder to the path on Mac OSX. For this example, extract to your home folder (the folder that contains the desktop, documents, etc. folders)
3. To do this click on Finder > Go > Utilities > Terminal.
4. Type in without quotations “cd ~/”
5. Next, type "touch .bash_profile" to create your new bash or otherwise known path file.
6. Next, type "open -e .bash_profile" to open it in TextEdit. A TextEdit window will open, copy and past this into that window, substituting <username> for your username on OSX:
export PATH=${PATH}:/Users/<username>/AndroidSDK/tools
7. Save the file and close the window.
8. Repeat steps 5 through 7, but replace .bash_profile with ".bashrc" (without the quotes)
9. ADB should be ready to go. Make sure that your Droid X is set to "charge only" when connected via USB, and that you have debug mode set to on in your Android settings (settings>applications>development> USB Debugging)
10. In terminal, type (without the quotes): "adb devices". You should see a return that gives a list of devices attached. If the daemon wasn't started yet, this will do it. After that, type "adb shell" to enter adb.
11. After that, the adb commands are ALL the same on any platform, just make adjustments for different file systems when moving things TO your phone when using the command prompt (and not in the adb shell itself, but using adb commands). OSX follows unix/linux file structure, but not always the linux/unix file arrangement (but pretty darn close, since it is a Unix BSD GUI).
Now onto rooting your DX running 2.2. I've attached the file I used. It is a .rar files, so you will need a .rar extractor. I found a nice free one on the net called UnrarX. Google it, get it. Its free, it works. I will give instructions assuming you have them. These instructions come from karnovaran here on XDA. THey are for the droid 2, but work for the Droid X as well. i will translate them into instructions that can be followed verbatim on Mac (as the instructions he gave are meant for those doing this through the command prompt in windows).
1. Extract the contents of the attached file to your sdk tools folder
2. Open a terminal window and navigate to your sdk tools folder. if you put the sdk folder in your home folder, then the command and path you should enter from the terminal should be something like this:
cd AndroidSDK/tools
3. Now the process is as follows (follow EXACTLY, making sure you are faithful to YOUR file paths). I'm copying almost verbatim from karnovaran:
- adb devices (to verify the connection)
- adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
- adb push su /sdcard/su
- adb push busybox /sdcard/busybox
- adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- adb shell
- cd data/local/tmp
- chmod 0755 rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- ./rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- let the process run until it 'kicks' you out (this WILL take a while, so don't TOUCH ANYTHING on your phone. Just go grab a beer and relax until the proces kicks you back out to the tools folder in terminal)
- adb kill-server
- cd <wherever-your-sdk-tools-folder-is>
- adb devices (to verify the connection)
- adb shell (you should now have a # prompt, if not return to ./rage step above)
- mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
- cp /sdcard/Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
- cp /sdcard/su /system/bin/su
- cp /sdcard/busybox /system/bin/busybox
- chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
- chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
- mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
- exit
- exit
This got me root on my DX and I did this on OSX no problem. The only PC I have that is functional is my laptop for work and because of the content on it and security procedures, though I could do android hacking with it, I will not, so I'm stuck with using my Mac. Thing is that it really is NOT hard. Commands are almost exactly as in Linux/Unix, and OSX terminal runs bash, which is quite versatile (more commands than busybox, iirc) in and of itself. And getting mac root access is bloody easy using sudo if you need it (otherwise, don't use it).
I hope this helps. Have fun.
many steps.... but will go slowly.
Thank you!!!!
Many steps, but they work!

Yeah this would be your problem.
@OP,
yes, it would be just that easy IF AND ONLY IF the linux commands apply to macs as well. Which I have NO IDEA on. so proceed at your own risk :z

There's your problem.... you're using leopard . I'm using 10.6.3. Love it. They did well with this new OS version (for those who don't know... the difference to users between Leopard and Snow Leopard for OSX folks is like the diff between Eclair and FroYo... the former is good, but the later far exceeds it under the hood though still remaining almost the same on the front end).
And obviously that means I'm running an intel machine as well. 2008 iMac 20".... 2.66 Ghz Core 2 Duo. Just your regular, nothing-special iMac.
I thought Macs were supposed to be user friendly?

Adb installation instructions for Ubuntu

The Absent-Minded Professor and I just installed adb on Ubuntu; here is how to set up adb on Ubuntu Linux, Gutsy through Maverick.
Our port of the BX theme to CM6 stable is forthcoming.
first command after installing and updating sdk and extracting the tgz file to your home directory is== sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules
NOTE: In the above file replace ## with the number 50 if you are running Gusty/Hardy/Dapper (50-android.rules) or with the number 70 if you are running Karmic Koala/Lucid Lynx(70-android.rules
after the window pops write this in the file==SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, SYSFS{idVendor}==”0bb4″, MODE=”0666″ then save and close
the follwing commands is== sudo chmod a+rx /etc/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules
Then reboot.
Open a terminal and type== sudo gedit .bashrc
The file contents should be as follows== export PATH=${PATH}:~/home/user/android-sdk-linux_86/tools
Save and close.
Run the command== adb devices
If you see a serial number like this:
List of devices attached
HT99PHF02521 device
then you are done.
If you get error messages such as "no such command," cd to /home/user/android-sdk-linux_x86/tools and use the adb commands in this way:
./adb devices
./adb shell
etc.
If you get an error message here referencing insufficient device permissions, do the following:
./adb kill-server
sudo ./adb start-server
Now ./adb devices should work.

As a note I had to do this last week when I upgraded to the new 4.2.2 roms, and I was unable to sideload the rom until I rename it to something smaller.
So instead of something like "rom_trickdroid7.5" I just renamed it to "rom.zip" and at that point sideload command worked fine.

OK so what you need to do is place the zip in your tools folder in andsdk. I am not sure if you have a platform-tools folder where there is an adb.exe file but whatever folder you have that in the zip also needs to go.
In recovery make sure you navigate to advanced then sideload and then swipe to start sideload. Once sideload is enabled then you type in the command prompt adb devices... It should show your device and have sideload next to it. If that is what you see last step is type
adb sideload nameofzip.zip
It automatically hoes to the root of your internal memory

I changed directories to where the adb.exe is (inside platform-tools) and ADB Sideload is already started in TWRP. However, whenever I type "adb devices" it only says "List of attached devices" and nothing under it. Whenever I try flashing the ROM, it says error: device not found. What am I doing wrong here? I even changed the name of the ROM to rom.zip to make it shorter as per a suggestion in the first page of the thread, but that didn't work either.
Okay now I realize my device isn't actually recognized, although it works fine with fastboot usb.
What do I do? I tried having windows automatically search for drivers but it didn't find anything.
Okay after doing some more reading I realized I never actually opened SDK Manager, and when I try, it just opens a black command prompt window and then shuts down. I then came across this article and realized I need Java JDK drivers before I can actually run SDK Manager and then follow the rest of the tutorial. Maybe that is the problem??

are you trying to use adb while fastboot is running on the phone? if so that won't work.
you need to have your phone in recovery mode or during normal operation for adb to work.
also make sure no other instances of adb are running use task manager (through ctrl+alt+del) to check and make sure no other instance of adb is running. i had the issue where it wouldn't kill previous iterations of itself.
*edit*
hmmm i just noticed your screenshot.
looks like you may need to reinstall the htc drivers, alternatively you could try to install koush's universal adb driver.

could very well be, if the sdk isn't properly installed - chances are the drivers aren't either. have you tried manually updating the drivers for the "unknown device"?

Hey Man, you need to make sure you install HTC Drivers and make sure the phone is recognized by the computer. Also, open sdk Manager and download updates, I will post a screen shot, I am using the same adb bundle you are. Update all the 4.1.2 and 4.2.2 APIs and next to each item under 4.1.2 and 4.2.2 make sure it says installed...May help with adb recognizing your phone.
The only issue right now is your phone being recognized by adb while in sideload because once it is the process will work I can promise you that.
Let me know if you have questions, I would get back to you sooner but I am in Hawaii and where its 11pm on the east its only 5 18pm here
Yeah, thank you very much guys. I was playing God of War and waiting for HTC Sync Manager to download so I can install it, haha. Everything went fine and the rom sideloaded 100%. Now I rebooted into recovery but I do not know where the rom.zip is located so I can install it? Any ideas?

Never mind, I just realized it should be in the sideload.zip file. I am so dumb today.
Thanks for all your help, guys.

Quick question guys, does sideload work with Cwm recovery too ?

I have never used CWM but if you boot into recovery, look for ADB Sideload through the options you have in CWM Recovery, if you do enable sideload and verify its connected and recognized by the computer by typing adb devices and it will show you your device with sideload. If it shows that then yes it will work
