When i try to push apps and etc, it goes directly to the phone but when i plug in my phone and do it through the usb it gives me whats on the sdcard and not the phone. but when i use i execute it like such "adb push C:\APP.APK /sdcard" and it still does that.

I have a broken (completely black) screen on my captivate Im trying to back up all my files from the INTERNAL memory. I can't see the screen so obviously I can't mount the phone to view the files on my PC. I have gotten 'pull /system/ /local/' to work however when I try something like 'pull /data/ /local/' it says "pull: building file list... 0 files pulled. 0 files skipped."
Basically, how do I use ADB to get all of my files to my computer? Help is certainly appreciated. After this I will probably reset the phone and then maybe sell it as is. Not too sure.
Question: Do u happen to have any recent clockwork backup and/or tibu backups on ur phone? If either is present u could directly navigate to those folders (in adb) and pull the files u want.
Alternate option: U cud put in an external sd card, and copy the files from internal sd to external sd if u are not comfortable with the pull commands.

I do not have any type of backups apps or anything like that on the phone.
I have an external sd card however Im not sure how thats different than using adb to copy the files from the internal memory to my computer. I am fine with using pull but maybe im using the wrong directory name for my personal files?
Have you tried qtadb or droidexplorer. Would be easier imo.

That requires a rooted phone right? My phone is currently not rooted and I don't know if I would want to. How come I cant just use the adb pull command on the folder with my data in it?
edit - i might have found a command that works, i will update when finished.
ok this worked for me: 'adb pull / d:\backup\'
thanks everyone for your help.
Yeah. Assumed you were rooted sorry. Just thought that way you could see everything and point and click.
So I have a similar situation to this only I have a phone that isnt rooted and usb debugging isnt enabled. However I know the phone boots on, and I can also get into recovery mode where I am able to ADB to get a basic shell, and see the device but that is about it. I feel that if I could enable usb debugging thru recovery mode I might be able to mount the /sdcard and then pull files from there. anyone got any ideas if I could get a reboot with usb debugging enabled from recovery or maybe just a command that I could use in shell via recovery?? Please Please lol. I have a strong feeling i might have hit a wall.

So basically i looked around on the forum cause i was getting crap battery and it said to wipe your SD card cause you might have a dodgy file on the phone, i did that and now the phone wont boot at all i dont have any roms to flash on it and the computer wont even seem to recognise it when i mount usb storage in CVM anyone have a clue whats going on?? and what i can do to get a rom working on it? or get it to boot
Boot into CWM recovery and connect the phone to your computer. Make sure you have ADB installed (see the links in my signature). Type "adb devices" to see if adb recognized your phone. If yes, you can transfer a rom file to the phone storage by typing:
adb push rom.zip /data/media
*Replace rom.zip with the location of the actual rom file.
Now flash the rom.
I've got my tf300t stuck in a boot loop when i turned it on today. (Ive looked around the forums for this issue already and been able to find little or no solutions that work for me)
I'm using cm10 and twrp. last night i shut the tablet off as usual and go to turn it on today and i cant get past the white asus logo and device unlocked screen.
I can access my twrp recovery menu, wiping dalvik returns a "E:Unable to mount '/data' (tw_mount)" cache wipes fine no errors.
I'm unable to flash another rom or restore from a back up as well.
Fastboot says its working but in cmd prompt it wont list the device. (computer recognizes it and it shows in device manager as android adb interface)
If there is any other information needed I will be more than happy to provide it.
any tips or help is greatly appreciated.
thanks in advanced.
I'm not yet very fammiliar yet with TF300, but from SGS 1 and ICS I remember one trick. If you have external microSD pluged, take it out or of you don't have it plug it in and then enter TWRP.
It probably won't work but you can try anyway.
Does TWRP have any file browser? I'm using CWM so I don't know much about TWRP.

Yeah it does have the file browser, upon initial booting i can browse an sd card ( i have a few of various sizes none seem to to be having any affect) and i can browse the internal storage as well. Booting both with and without the sd card in the device still leaves me in the boot loop.
So, can you copy new rom to sd card, then copy from sd to internal and install new rom? I think only option you have is to reinstall rom.

I can and have tried but it wont let me flash with the "unable to mount /data" error. It tells that my external sd-card and whatever rom i attempt to flash has problems

Be sure your sdk is up to date.
1. If you hold volume down plus power button to get to fastboot.
2. shift + control right click fastboot folder on computer then open command prompt.
3. type devices... and if it is not showing a device there something is not right.
4. you can try adb push to apply a flash if your device is not wanting to flash from sd card.

I've tried this as well. It was my first thought. Also it states in my original post that fastboot doesnt list my device, adb doesnt list it as well. Both are recent and up to date. However device manager does recognize it and windows makes the little notification sound. In safely remove devices it shows up as fastboot when i enable fastboot on the device.
Hello,
So I made the mistake of wiping my sdcard partition, so I don't have the .zip with the ROM on the phone's memory.
The ROM I currently had was deleted aswell when I formatted /system/. Recovery works, but because I don't have an external SD card, I can not put anything on the phone memory.
So now, I can not push the zip file with adb because my Moto G is not recognised, even though I installed all the drivers (in AP Flashboot Mode) it says that the USB is connected, but "adb devices" shows nothing.
So in a few words, phone memory is empty, it's not recognised by the PC so I can not push the .zip with adb sideload.
have you tried to connect an USB stick (in cwm or TWRP)?
Probably you can mount it and install a zip.

I found a version of the Universal ADB Drivers, installed them and the adb sideload worked.
Let this be a lesson for others with phones that don't have external SD cards - NEVER delete the ROM from your phone's internal memory

Are you using Win8 or Win7? I have read posts from people that had problems using fastboot commands in Win8.
Hello,
I have Samsung Galaxy Core Plus (SM-G350) with broken screen (totally black) and password set up.
I want to recover my internal card data, but any of my ideas wont work.
I have already installed CWM and tried to blindly mount /sdcard by USB, but I dont see any new drive on PC.
I wanted to root it, but any of methods I found wont work (maybe cause Im running in CWM? Yes, USB debugging is disabled).
I tried also 'adb pull', but I need to mount /sdcard (am I right?) where I get 'permission denied' error - in adb shell I cant perform any command except 'cd'.
Im thinking about flashing /data by Odin, but how to create the 'script' for it?
Anybody has any idea how can I do it?
Same Boat...
I've got a broken screen on Centura Galaxy. I managed to blindly ODIN CWM on it, and now get ADB in recovery, but debugging is off so I'm stuck with there. I've tried recovery screenshot tools to try to load rooted ROM, but had no luck. I know JUST enough to be dangerous, and not much more. Just need to get DCIM folder.

If this is still valid, you could try flashing TWRP onto the phone, where it should mount the SD Card automatically and it should connect to the PC automatically too. Search for TWRP (either 2.8 or 3) here on XDA
