Please search on these forums before opening up new threads. Answer to this question has been posted multiple times. Search for "side loading" apps, that's the tech term used.
On stock ROMs, u would need to enable side loading.
On some custom ROMs, there is an option to allow for unknown sources. On those that don't have the option, u would need to enable side loading of apps.
Steps to side load (copied from existing thread/post):
What you’ll need:
* Android SDK
* BusyBox
o If you don’t have BusyBox, go search “BusyBox” on the Android Market
o Once installed, open up the BusyBox app and follow the full installation directions to enable it
* Samsung Captivate with root
* SQL Database Manager
o We suggest trying the SQLite plugin for Firefox, you can find it here.
Process:
1. Turn on USB debugging: Settings >> Applications >> Development
2. Plug in your Samsung Captivate
3. Open up Command Prompt on your computer (Windows: start, search, type “cmd”, right click cmd, Run as Administrator)
4. Type in: cd _____PATH TO ANDROID SDK FOLDER______\tools
Example:
cd C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\android-sdk-windows\tools
Press ENTER
5. Type in: adb shell
Press ENTER
6. Type in: su
Press ENTER
7. Type in: cp /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db /sdcard/settings.db
Press ENTER
8. Type in: cp /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db /sdcard/settings.db.backup
Press ENTER
9. Type in: exit
Press ENTER
10. Type in: exit
Press ENTER
11. Type in: adb pull /sdcard/settings.db %userprofile%\desktop
Press ENTER
Leave Command Prompt open
12. Open SQLite Manager in Firefox by pressing Tools >> SQLite Manager
13. Click “Database”
14. Then click “Connect Database”
15. Navigate to “settings.db” on your Desktop
16. Expand the tables
17. Click “Secure” on the panel
18. Scroll down to ID 6, “install_non_market_apps”
19. Double click it and change “value” from 0 to 1.
20. Close SQLite Manager
21. Go back to the command prompt window, type in: adb push %userprofile%\desktop\settings.db /sdcard
Press ENTER
22. Type in: adb shell
Press ENTER
23. Type in: su
Press ENTER
24. Type in: cp /sdcard/settings.db /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings
Press ENTER
25. Type in: chmod 777 /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db
Press ENTER
26. Type in: reboot
Press ENTER
27. Disconnect your Captivate from your computer while your phone reboots.
Congratulations! You can now sideload non-market applications on your Samsung Captivate.

Using Adb

I downloaded this for tethering but whenever I click on the adb program the window doesnt stay up, it just flashes and dissapears. My question is how do I change ports using this to tether via azlink or tetherbot?
Little help?
You don't click on it. It's a command line utility. You have to drop to the faux DOS prompt.
Start > Run > Type "cmd", hit enter > cd to the sdk\tools\ directory > type "adb ...." etc.
Ok I got the android sdk file on my desktop now for tethering how do I run a cd command to access it.

[GUIDE] Easy and simple adb and fastboot setup for newbies (Windows only)

Linux users please go HERE (thanks to bloodychaos)​Similar guides can be found on other devices subforums around but I can see that a lot of new users in our forum are not familiar with the setup and use of this commands.
All the instructions and installation files can be found on the Android Developers webpage, but for basic commands it is not necessary to download the whole SDK (which requires the JDK as well) to follow installation and the resources download process.
*Important: to use the adb/fastboot commands you have to enable USB Debugging in your phone Settings -> Applications -> Development menu*
To have working adb and fastboot system wide for basic commands just follow the steps below:
UPDATE: Not necessary for Windows 7 is installng adb drivers automatically after plugging the device and fastboot ones after rebooting the connected device to bootloader. To get the HTC USB Drivers on different Windows version download and install HTC Sync (If you do not need the Sync application itself you can uninstall it but the drivers will remain on your system).
*According to post #5 in this thread in some cases may be necessary to temporary disable your antivirus software during the installation of HTC Sync. Thanks @mimirom*
Download the zip archive or the attached file below
Extract the archive on your C: drive. You will have C:\android-tools folder
Adding to the System Path globally to use the command without browsing to the containing folder
Method 1 (via GUI):
Go to My Computer icon -> right click and select Properties.
On the left side of the opened screen select Advanced system settings.
(Or Start -> Search -> type sysdm.cpl -> Enter, browse to the Advanced tab)
Look down on the opened menu and select Environment Variables.
In the lower half are listed the System Variables.
Scroll to find "Path" variable, select it and click Edit...
On the Edit window in the Variable value field go to the end of the line (do not delete it!) and add without any intervals (spaces):
Code:
;C:\android-tools
do not forget the semicolon symbol (;)!
Click Ok 3 times.
Method 2 (via Command prompt):
Go to Start and in the Search box type cmd, right click and Run as Administrator
Type
Code:
setx path /m "%PATH%;C:\android-tools"
and hit Enter. Close the cmd window

Just a tip, if you put the Adb and fastboot files in C:/windows/system32 (32bit) or in C/windows/sysWOW64 (64bit) you can just use them from any command prompt window

To check is it working properly open Command Prompt (Start -> Search -> type cmd -> Enter) and type adb
If everything is configured properly this should list you the Android Debug Bridge version and the available commands.
*HINT*: To use adb or fastboot with files in the Command prompt you have to navigate to the folder containing the file first (using the cd command) e.g. "D:\Downloads\Android" and then to execute the command.
Example:
Start -> type cmd in the Search box, then Enter. You will see
C:\Users\with blinking cursor
If your file is on another drive like the example type "d:" (without the quotes), or other drive letter to go to the relevant drive. Skip this if the file is on C: drive. Then type:
cd D:\Downloads\Android to go to the "D:\Downloads\Android" folder. If your path contains spaces (intervals) type it in quotes.
The command "cd.." brings you one folder back
Good Idea!
Have put a link to this within the GUIDES section of [INDEX][22 SEP 11] ROMS/RECOVERY/ROOT/HBOOT/RADIOS/TWEAKS/GUIDES/etc
I believe that the guide would be more useful if you put in a link to a URL for the HTC Drivers and moved the advice about enabling USB Debugging to the top!
I can now point people at this guide rather than manually instruct them, Thank's you probably just saved me loads of time and aggravation!
Nice Work, Great Help
Excellent! Exactly what I needed. Thanks for showing us this.
Hi an thank you. Good guide.
I believe one important information is missing in the guide:
Before installing the HTC drivers (or HTC sync) it is necessary to temporarily disable AntiVirus software on Windows machines. If you don't do that, Windows won't recognise your phone. After the installation is finished, enable AntiVirus again.
I got this advice somewhere and it was true for me personally. I'm using Windows 7.

One more comment:
This is a minor detail but I think it's worth mentioning.
If you are using the HTC Sync installation in order to get the HTC drivers only, you actually don't need to install and immediately uninstall HTC Sync itself.
The Sync installer will first install the Desired (pun fully intended ;-) drivers and the it will stop. Next it's going to ask you if you want to proceed with the installation of HTC Sync. At that point you hit cancel and you're done. No Sync, just the drivers.

You do not need a phone for this guide It is setup for PC
Just a tip, if you put the Adb and fastboot files in C:/windows/system32 (32bit) or in C/windows/sysWOW64 (64bit) you can just use them from any command prompt window

Nice work mate
Thanks a lot for the guide, dude!
By the way, I noticed that it doesn't work for me (windows 7 professional) unless i end the path of adb with "\", for example: ;C:\android-tools\ and not ;C:\android-tools as in your guide.
Hope it helps!

Hey Guys, I need help!
after an installation of adb all I get is error:device not found
i entered a code adb shell and hit enter, than i entered
dmesg | grep mmc0, since you cannot put two lines of code at once (I'm a rookie)..
where did I put it wrong?
I can get to recovery of my device, but I get error like:
/I]E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
I made revolutionary S-OFF..
Thanx for a help!
Rocks
You have to enable USB debugging in the settings.
And while in recovery it should work too

[Guide] Telus Motorola Backflip with CM7 Android 2.3.7

Recently I've got a cheap Motorola Backflip for Telus, then I start exploring and find a solution to upgrade to 2.3.7. I've spent 2 whole days facing the computer but eventually got the solution.
I don't know is there anyone still using this ancient phone but I wish this thread can help the one who needs this and also update some of the out-dated processes.
Origin: Android 1.5
Let's start:
(The following are tested on a telus backflip)
First Root
1) Go setting>Application> Development>USB debugging. check the debugging box
Put a at least 1GB memory card in your phone
2)Connect your phone to computer. USB connecting type: "charge only"
3)Download pdanet so that they can install the driver you need, run it after you downloaded it with your phone connected to the computer
http://www.junefabrics.com/android/download.php
4)Download adb and extract all the files to the root of (C: )
http://www.mediafire.com/?tntogmymgo16ac0
5)Download the rageagainstthecage file, create a file called "Moto_MSM_Root" in (C: ), then extract all the files into "Moto_MSM_Root" in (C: )
http://www.mediafire.com/?azcraghfl12sw8w
6)Download “Terminal Emulator” and "Rootchecker" and put them in the root of (C: )
http://www.iapktop.com/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/download.php?id=5181
http://goo.gl/KEt1Z
7)Computer: Enter (C: )drive and then hold "shift" on your keyboard and right click, choose to open the command prompt
8)Code
8a)Verify the connection by typing the following code, if it shows your devices serial and "device" side by side, you are good to go
Code:
adb devices
Example:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX device
8b)start rooting
Code:
adb install RootCheckPro.apk
adb install Android_Terminal_Emulator_v1.0.32.apk
adb push c:\Moto_MSM_Root\Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
adb push c:\Moto_MSM_Root\su /sdcard/su
adb push c:\Moto_MSM_Root\rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
adb push c:\Moto_MSM_Root\install-root.sh /data/local/tmp/install-root.sh
adb shell
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 0755 rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
chmod 0755 install-root.sh
Keep your phone connecting to the computer
9)Backflip: open the terminal emulator in your Backflip
10)type the following in the terminal emulator on Backflip

[Video Tutorial]How to remove Google Ads from any APK

How to remove Google Ads from any APK​
This tutorial will learn you how to remove Google Ads from any APK (app), the ads are a specific part in the source code that can can be removed easily without damaging the app.
Any ways, I encourage you to keep supporting the app developers by buying their apps. The outcome of this tutorial is made personal use only and you may not share (or even sell) the apps you cleaned from ads.
Requirements:
- Java 6/7 (JRE or JDK)
- APK Multi Tools
- ADB
Youtube Video:
or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pw-e2m_TBxA
Instructions:
Step 1. Download and install/extract all needed packages. (Install JRE/JDK 6/7 and unpack APK Multi Tool and ADB)
Step 2. Looking what apps you have installed on your phone to pull (make sure you're in debugging mode)
- In ADB folder, run adb.bat
- Enter: "cd data/app"
- Enter: "ls", now your apps will show up
- Copy an apk name by right clicking in the cmd window and click mark, then mark the text and right click again to copy
- Now terminate adb.bat by either pressing Control+C and enterying "y" or closing the window.
Step 3. Pulling the apk
- In ADB folder, hold shift and right click in an empty place in the folder (not on some file/folder) > Open Command window here
(or press windows key + r and enter cmd, now enter "cd C:\your\adb\folder\here")
- once in command prompt, enter: "adb pull /data/app/[right click > paste]"
- After pulling the apk it will appear in your ADB directory. Now copy the apk
Step 4. APK Multi Tools Setup
- In APK-Multi-Tool folder, open setup.bat
- Enter "3" and press enter
- Enter "00" and press enter to exit setup
- Browse to /place-apk-here-for-modding/ and press Control + V to paste your pulled apk
Step 5. APK-Multi-Tool Decompilation
- In APK-Multi-Tool folder, open script.bat and press enter
- Enter: "24" and press enter, now choose your apk, probably #1
- Enter: "9" and press enter to decompile your apk
- Browse to the /projects/apkname folder
Step 6. Removing the ads
- In APK-Multi-Tool\projects\apkname.apk folder, open the smali folder
- Then browse to the com folder and then to the google folder
- Now you will see a folder called ads. remove this folder.
Step 7. Compiling the apk
- In APK Multi Tool, enter: "12" to start compiling the apk
- When a new text dialog appears, enter: "3" and press enter
- When the "keep folder" question shows press enter
- Now your signed apk (without ads) can be found in the APK-Multi-Tool\place-apk-here-for-modding folder
- Copy the apk (with "signed" in front of the name) and paste it in the ADB directory
Step 8. Installing the result
- Select the apk and press F2 (or change name) to copy then name to the clipboard then press enter to discard the name change
- Now, hold shift and right click in an empty place in the folder (not on some file/folder) > Open Command window here
(or press windows key + r and enter cmd, now enter "cd C:\your\adb\folder\here")
- Enter "adb install [right-click > paste]"

Ooops, sorry about that request.
What is the difference between this, and the adfree app from the play store?
It worked. This is very helpful. Thank you. I just use the apk tool. To compile and decompile the apk. Then use rom toolbox to paste it back.
Thank you again
Thanks bro, i will learn.. May GBU

How to move apps to sd card without rooting??

Hii Guyzz... Here i'm gonna show u how to move apps to sdcard...
1.To run commands which will enable Move to SD card button for most installed apps, you need to have adb executable on your computer. Download Android SDK from Official Android SDK developers site.
2. After downloading the archive of the SDK, unzip it to any folder and remember its location (let’s call this folder <sdk>).
3. If you are installing Android SDK on Windows machine, you also need to install USB driver.
4. Connect the phone using USB cable and do not enable USB storage mode. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Development and enable USB debugging.
5. Start terminal window on your computer (on Windows: click Start, type “cmd” and press Enter).
6. In the terminal window, navigate to folder containing file named “adb” (<sdk>\platform-tools folder) using this command: cd “full-path-to-sdk-platform-tools” (replace “full-path-to-sdk-platform-tools” with an actual path as shown in the screenshot below).
7. Type the following lines in the terminal window and press Enter after each line:
• adb devices
• This checks that the phone is connected and is in the correct mode. You should see one entry in the list of the attached devices. If you get “device not found” error, see Troubleshooting section below.
• adb shell
• If you get “cannot find file” error and are using Mac or Linux, instead type: ./adb shell
• pm set-install-location 2
• (If this command doesn’t work try using the “old” command: pm setInstallLocation 2. Thanks to polosco for the tip.)
• exit
8. Now on your phone go to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications.
• If you have Android 2.3 or later, click on USB Storage tab (may be called SD card). This tab shows a list of apps that either can be installed to SD card or are already on SD card. The ones that have checkbox on the right side are already moved to SD card (credit to Michael Scully for the tip).
• On Android 2.2 and earlier if you don’s see USB Storage or SD Card tab, click on All tab.

9. Press hardware Menu button and select Sort by Size.
10. Tap on each app that is taking significant amount of space and tap Move to SD card button. Press hardware Back button and repeat.
11. (optional) To change the default installation location for new apps back to the internal phone memory, go back to your terminal window and type:
• pm setInstallLocation 0
12. (important) Go to Settings -> Applications -> Development and disable USB debugging. Leaving USB debugging enabled makes your phone vulnerable (e.g. lock pattern can be reset).
13. Enjoy!
There v gooo..... No rooting...no vulnerability....everything is safe and easy.....
