I thought some people might appreciate the instructions to get adb working over WiF:
Type this in your terminal emulator on your One X:
Code:
su
setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
stop adbd
start adbd
(5555 can be whatever you want.)
Then check it with this:
Code:
getprop service.adb.tcp.port
When it returns "5555" then run this command in the terminal (or command prompt) on your computer:
Code:
adb connect 192.168.0.151
Obviously enter your device's IP address in place of 192.168.0.151. Your computer must have adb (duh!) and your phone must be on the same network.
And you should be connected!
To tell the One X to listen for adb on the USB port instead of TCP again, enter this into the terminal emulator:
Code:
su
setprop service.adb.tcp.port -1
stop adbd
start adbd
Or just reboot the phone.
And to tell your computer to use USB for adb instead of TCP:
Code:
adb usb
I would definitely use the USB cable to push large files or even small files that you really don't want to risk corrupting (partition images you plan on dding, etc).
Very importantly, keep in mind, when your phone is listening for adb via WiFi, it's wide open... anybody that that the adb installed and knows your device's IP address can access it without a password. Again, a simple reboot will turn it off though.
HTH,
Billy

I bet our usb plugs last longer doing things over WiFi. Thanks man
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Many custom ROMs and even some stock firmwares can change from usb to wifi in developer settings. Jellybean has this function built in with android so you dont need root or run any commands from terminal :good:
Thanks for the tut, this helps out a lot ^_^

So tell yourself to smile upon it; we're humans, not automatons; they were being polite, and that's a lovely thing to be in this age - you're not compelled to "frown upon it". You know, "netiquette" is not law, and humanity is a lovely thing to see

It makes me happy to see some actual humanity around these stuffy as of late parts! It's at best troubling and at worse ungrateful to have a policy in place that forbids a friendly human ”thanks". When someone feels the need to let that policy actually change their own personal level of gratitude there is something very bad happening.
A button can in no way replace a real human emotion. It provides a very impersonal response with very very little meaning.
I know there's probably a policy in place around here forbidding disagreement or self-expression against something that when looked at through other eyes is absolutely without meaning or need, but as a human I feel the need to stand up for my beliefs.
Thank you for your time.

AMEN!!!
God bless you my friend; the world's in a mess, and people are increasingly becoming entrenched in "the way it is" - well not me. Who wants to "fit in" and just be passive and live as if they're "enduring" life? Some people will NEVER like you - I found that is the case, and some people WILL NEVER have anything good to say. Well, that's up to them - for me, I AM ALWAYS going to SAY thank you, and people can just dislike that all they want - it's how I am, and if they "frown upon it", that just shows how lost they are, seriously.
BE NICE TO PEOPLE!!!!!!!
God bless you all
Landed here by googling a bit abt adb over wifi
And ... BAM ! Works straight !
I'll do some scripting around it but the core usage is all there,
BiG Thanks !
(Thanks button hit but cold not help posting a bit more )
I'm very late to this thread, but luckily, as of Android 11, adb works over wi-fi (without USB) on non-rooted Android phones via Developer options Wireless debugging switches.

search market for "ADB over WIFI Widget"
Notes:
- Rooted phone only.
A Widget to quickly enable/disable ADB over wifi. It will work over WIFI or Hotspot. IP and Port information will be shown on the icon. SU access may needed depends on your ROM and in that case, it would be slower (experimental).
If it didn't work, please email me, we will work it out.
Other features of the widget:
- Info on the icon can be enabled/disabled.
- The label under the icon can be customized or completely disabled
- You can specify port number
- you can set SU mode, please note that this feature is experimental and will slow down the widget operations a little.
App is free now!
I decided to make the widget free. download and enjoy. I will add some cool features soon.
Awesome. How do you get it to work??? Like is there something for the PC I have to download or run??
No software required on PC
Nothing needed on PC other than the ADB itself of course.
Make sure Debug mode is enabled on your phone.
this is the command on PC:
ADB connect IPORT
IP will be shown on the icon when you enable it and you can set port (also will be shown on the icon).
you should be on the same network with your phone, you cannot use 3G IP to connect it on the internet.
Have fun!
Excellent, thank You!

Dumb question: How do I do this?
I've got USB Debugging checked in Settings -> Applications -> Development, but that doesn't seem to do the trick to use ADB via WiFi.
I'm running Ruby 1.1.1 on an HTC Incredible, Super User Mode is checked (widget doesn't seem to work without it), and the widget says it's enabled, shows me the IP/port, but adb simply says "unable to connect to 192.168.1.xxx:5555" (I changed the port to 5555).

I take it that you've granted the application superuser permissions? You need to then need to activate the widget and adb connect xxxxxxx
Yes, it has permissions in superuser. I tap the widget to activate, it turns green and displays my phone's IP address + port. I open up a command window (w/ admin privileges, though that doesn't seem to matter), run "adb connect IPort" and get the "unable to connect" message.
adbWireless doesn't work either.
Rock on
Suite sauce! Great app
Where are you using this app? is it on your home network or a work/university? Because I also cannot connect in university, I've found a fix for it thats need a trick. I will add the trick to next version (Maybe I do it tonight, stay tuned), I hope it also work for you.
Just a test, can you use programs such as file managers to remotely access a share folder on your computer? because you should be on the same folder to do this.
Updated!
Check the updated version. Enable Change mask option and set different mask values. It fixed on my university's network with "255.255.0.0". you need to check the computer ip and your phone ip and determine what mask you should use. The goal is to make phone that you are on the same network as the computer.
Also a bug fixed.
Have fun.
The widget itself works like a charm, thanks a lot! But - look what I see in my Command Prompt window(on desktop computer under Windows 7) after successful connection with android device:
Code:
~ # cd /sys
cd /sys
/sys # ls
ls

←[1;34mbus←[0m ←[1;34mdevices←[0m ←[1;34mkernel←[0m
/sys #
What this??? What all these "←[" mean???
Those are escape codes. With the right terminal program, they can control the cursor or change colors among other things. They are coming from whatever shell your ROM is running.
As for me, there must have been something wrong with my Ruby installation. The widget worked just fine after restoring a nandroid of Virtuous, and works great on my wife's Droid running Sapphire.

Hi,
very great idea, works fine with desire hd.
with friendly greet
starbase64
Very useful program, thanks!
I do have a question; Is enabling su when adding the widget required to make it work?
If I leave this toggle unchecked, the widget never turns green to indicate a connection is possible.
When it is checked, everything works as expected.
Is this toggle giving the widget su permission, or is it to grant permission to the wireless adb connection?
Please clarify the function of this toggle.
Thanks!
Given the nature of this program, is the source code available for this?
UbuntuChroot + LXDE for WebOS
Travis Antonio Projects
Hello my friends!.
The July 17 I was testing Ubuntu Chroot, then I was testing some APPs like "Synergy-Foss", "Chromium-Browser", "VNC" and some others, then I just got a idea to put a GUI in the XServer, first I tried to put XFCE4 but it was a big fail because of the graphics then I tried twice but any ways was fail "not a big ".
The July 20 I tried to install LXDE but after install only was shown the Wallpaper desktop screen, nothing else, I though I was doing something bad but when I saw the log there was not xorg.conf, then I made one for generic drivers and I did put it on /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and the Desktop UI was fully functionally, then I tried Synergy through my Windows 7 and was like I dunno but was awesome!. =D

Maybe my English is not good enough to comprehend that line.. but you read the rules @ Internals, right?
Other than that.. I think you're presenting yourself and your work kinda..well.. let's just say: To me, it seems like you're actively developing for WebOS, but as far as my knowledge goes you're "just" using the tools, already provided by others, use them as intended and present the results as your work.. (refering to your "Windows-build" for WebOS..?)
I'm not saying what you're doing is bad.. but pls respect intellectual property of others, and if you're building your projects on top of others, give them proper credits for what they have done.. and respect their rules regarding distribution and such.
______________________________________________________________
Other than that: Good work so far, keep it up
Oh.. and maybe you've already seen the Ubuntu-Chroot-thread in the HP Touchpad section for further referance?

Worse than all that is the act of copying information from official sources (instead of linking to them) and then not having the decency to keep that copy updated as the procedure changes.
For example, the testing feeds are no longer needed for this, and the instructions in this thread for the testing feeds are obsolete and intentionally no longer work due to the actions of posters like this.
-- Rod
that would be something I would do simply out of lazyness.. copying everything while you could just link to the informations needed.. well..
But in this particular case..
7) "They will never post the raw testing feed URLs or instructions anywhere, but will always refer others directly to this page using only the URL "http://testing.preware.org/""
That was the first line I jumped onto when I went to Internals after getting my TP, and yeah.. rules are rules..
I have by far not enough knowledge to get why testing feed procedures changed or whatsover, I simply believe contribution should be held as simple as possible, giving anyone the same chance to help and of course giving anyone proper credits.
Sticking to rules should be taken for granted I think
Yes, everything is my bad, so don't worry, everything can be fixed. (=

I would want to have Palm Pre OS on Fluo M.
So I have been throwing around this idea for awhile about making a script that will do it all for the Atrix2, root, fxz restore, some other hacks. This would be accomplished from a menu driven shell script, with all the things like the root hack and adb and moto-fastboot included with the script, so no need to go grab them all.
What do you think?
Who wants this, and who would use this?
For me this would be quite easy, but I will ONLY do it, if enough people want it, and would use it.
So post your thoughts, and if there are other utils you would like it to do include that in your reply.
And to totally steal a line from a favorite movie in the geek world:
"One script to rule them all"
This is a great idea! Sure would save a lot of time. I'm interested.

I would certainly use it and I am sure others would too. I would recommend you make a windows batch version too because many people here do not have linux, even though they probably should so maybe this would motivate them.
I think this is a cool and useful idea, so if other people agree I would say go for it.
P.S. check the thread I just started about cheesecake.

I think it's an excellent idea I would use it and this clearly would help others to do all the things we can do with our Atrix2.
"One script to rule them all" would be perfect! Count my vote.

As a Mac User... WANT!
Love the idea!

Oh yeah, this would be great! Might actually convince my wife to root and play with hers then.
Ok, so I have decided to work on this script.
Here is what I am going to work on as far as things the script will do:
1) Root the Atrix 2 (for both 2.3.5 and 2.3.6)
2) Restore the fxz (for both 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 "modified" xml and all)
3) Have an option to run my Ubuntu full webtop hack
4) An option to copy music and pictures to and from the phone
5) Sideload apps (for those that don't want to enable the non-market apps)
Any thing else that anyone wants, please request it now before I get started, I will start on this on Friday morning, so requests need to me put in here or PM'd to me before Friday June 15th, I would really prefer to have the requests in here (so they are in one place), but I will also accept a PM.
So, don't forget to put your requests in!

how about an option to install cheesecake, or the auto cheesecake I just posted. That should give some encouragement and would be really easy.
an option to pull CWM backups from the sdcard and delete them from it to free up space
Let me know if you want any help with this.

Great ideas, I will add those in.
I might hit you up, let me see once I am in it knee deep.
I am guessing it is about 6-8 hours of coding, so it should not be too bad, but I will let you know on Friday, I might break some of it up, and have you do a few things and I can do a few things, then have the main script call all the others, and I can do the main script.... It would then be modular, sort of like the kitchen.
I am still debating if I use perl or shell. If I use perl, we might be able to make it work in windblows too.... just a thought though. Using perl would add a lot more lines of code though.
If this is still happening how about an option to dump system as an image for use with from building. that should be easy to add.

Ok good idea. I will add that... it will be a cat of the device and can be mounted as a loop device similar to an iso.
I have some parts already started, about 2 hours worth of coding so I have a good bit started and finished.

Ok good idea. I will add that... it will be a cat of the device and can be mounted as a loop device similar to an iso.
I have some parts already started, about 2 hours worth of coding so I have a good bit started and finished.

Hi Jim,
I just read your post from about 2 hrs ago, that you've already got about 2 hrs worth of coding done.
QUESTION: Did you go with Perl or with shell scripting or a mix? (just thinking about Cygwin for the Windows crowd who don't do VM's, for whatever reason).
Thanks so much for this awesome gift to the community Jim.
Respectfully,
Paul
PS: DOCUMENTATION: if you want a help file, with some pretty screen captures annotating it, that can be called up at rich text or html or some other method, let me know, I can help with that.

There isn't any much information on the tab specs-wise, except that it runs on a customised Android distribution with a child-friendly UI (think Samsung's Kid UI), a 1024x600 LCD screen, and a dual-core Rockchip RK3168 SOC. That's besides VTech developed or curated edutaiment apps being distributed physically through proprietary cartridges (using a wrapper as NeverLies mentioned), a stylus pen and of course the form factor.
Mom's Messy Miracles is currently having a giveaway contest, if anyone's up to it.
UPDATE: @ifhi has managed to debloat and convert his Innotab into a plain ol' Android tablet; see this post for details.
UPDATE 2: Instructions on how to convert the Innotab can be found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/convert-vtech-innotab-maxx-android-t4060429
Sorry for the bump, but anyone?
I'm also interested in some hacking of this device. I'm interested in the device so my daughter can still use her cartridges but still have a full android tablet.

I'm not sure if I'd be able to pick one up in the near future, but I'm interested in tinkering with one and knowing as to what VTech used for the Max's internals, like the card slot and of course the SOC used.
That, and since this is by and large a children's device, I'm sure Samsung's Kids UI would be a natural fit for this tab. That is if it can be ported at all. Oh, and Cyanogenmod, anyone?
I am also very interested to hack this device.

It has been hacked, there is a firmware hack to allow you to dump carts to the SD card. Trouble is I cant find anywhere to get pre dumped games so its not a moneysaver for me yet. You can also convert video to play too.
Any info on where I can download games would be much appreciated. The hack author wont allow pirated games.
Failing that maybe we could share??
for the hack google spiffy hacks innotab
The hack is for INNOTAB MAX version ?

Heard of it, but I'm actually interested in a root/recovery for the device as this one runs on Android. Yeah, there has been hacks for the other Innotab models, but while there's a thread in Spiffy's board mentioning about the possibility of supporting the Max, no hacks or root tricks for the latter exist yet.

Hi
Anyone succeeded to root the tablet, or at least install an alternate store (Google Play Store or Amazon App Store) ?
I couldn't find anything about a way to dump games to SD card, can someone post some information about it ?
Are there any debugging options available on the tablet when you log in to Parent Mode? Something along the lines of Unknown Sources or at least a USB debug mode?
I would be definitely interested in accessing the play store and having root rights with this tablet. But I need to still have access to the Vtech UI for my child. (good UI I think, but a little slow sometimes).

Not that I know of the box it comes in doesn't say much and there's virtually no help on the options screen trying to find a way to maybe boot into recovery or something but I am very interested in finding some sort of alternate ui or a way to add apps from the play store and such if anyone would be kind enough to help I'd greatly appreciate it

Root
Hello,
Is it always impossible to root it ?
Does someone manage to go to recovery ?
I tried some combination of keys with power Button, but no luck.
Hello there
My daughter just had one, and I've spend couple of hours on this one.
Right now, here is the status:
- I can boot in bootloader interface mode
- I can "adb" with device
- while in shell mode, "su" is working fine, and can read full content of the tablet
You can see in attached pic that they may had some issue on the wifi/bluetooth device as they are some testonly release in it
Root
Wow !!
It's a good news !
Could you tell me how you enter in bootloader mode ?
Thank you for your work !
I don't want everyone to get a bricked device so let's wait a few and found out what is available.
I've also made available some information on spiffy. Let me see If I can get the FW
As posted on spiffy, here are the instructions
1. Turn OFF your MAX
2. In order to get access, you will have to boot to recovery
* * *- Plugin USB cable and wait for the battery charging animation
* * *- Hold down UP (on the dpad) + LEFT (on the dpad) + Context Key (the one on the upper left) and press ON for 3 seconds
-------- Alternate: Up & left (d-pad) vol up and power button (3 seconds)
* * *- It will stay black screen, this is normal
3. Using the google driver, edit the "android_winusb.inf" file on your PC, and add following lines:
- In section named “[Google.NTx86]”
;InnoTab Max
%SingleBootLoaderInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2207&PID_0006
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2207&PID_0006
- In section named “[Google.NTamd64]”
;InnoTab Max
%SingleBootLoaderInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2207&PID_0006
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_2207&PID_0006
4. Plug the MAX on your PC using USB cable
5. Drivers should be then installed correctly (thanks to modifications done in android_winusb.inf)
You now have adb access to your tablet, only in recovery mode. You can test using "adb devices" command, it should list your device
6. start adb shell using "adb shell" command on your PC
7. Get root access, using "su" command
8. Enable adb for normal mode, using this command: "setprop persist.service.adb.enable 1"
9. You can now reboot the tablet in normal mode using "reboot" command
Once tablet is rebooted, you will see an unknown device, based on the rk30 board. You will need rockship driver pack to continue with adb in this normal mode
10. Install driver pack for rockship from: http://dl.radxa.com/rock/tools/windows/RK_DriverAssitant.zip
You now have complete ADB access to your tablet
I've just installed the latest firmware upgrade available and the device is reported to be running on android 4.2.2
Let me know if you have issue while following these steps, but should be quite straightforward.
Note that busybox 1.11.1 is already available, and you have root access.
If you need to factory reset your tablet, the key combination is almost the same as getting in recovery
Hit: UP + LEFT + ? and turn on the tablet
------------------ Android Launcher ---------------------------------
Start adb shell and type the following command:
am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -c android.intent.category.HOME
this will move to foreground the android launcher
Congratulation !
How did you find this konami code ???
So, can we install apk ? Is it possible to reboot with vtech launcher ?
Thank you again !
Looking interesting now been playing with my daughters when she not demanding Peppa pig on it some cool posibility with it if we can launch some apks on there
Dear all,
Two months after installing a new screen on my OnePlus 5T, the screen basically stopped working (black, sometimes flickering parts).
However: the touch function is still working. For example, I can still operate spotify, as I just know where I would have to press...
As I really wish to retrieve some information from the phone, or initiate data transfer to a new OnePlus, I would like to try screen streaming options.
Since I can't really operate any other app without seeing the screen, I wanted to force it from my computer via adb commands.
The phone is unlocked/rooted, and adb debugging enabled.
There are two approaches I would like try:
GitHub - Genymobile/scrcpy: Display and control your Android device
Display and control your Android device. Contribute to Genymobile/scrcpy development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
I am planning to run these approches on a virtual machine for linux/ubuntu on a windows 11 computer, and I got it so far, that the device is being recogniced by the <adb devices> command, showing the device number.
However, the phone is also unauthorized, potentially hindering me from continuing with scrcpy (and potentially any other adb driven approach).
Please find the following output.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Of course, the internet provides solutions to that problem but they all require me to use the screen of my phone. (Which technically is possible, but I just can't see where I am tapping/if popups come up etc.).
So here's my question(s):
Is adb-driven screen streaming the only option I have at that point?
Are these approaches reasonable, or is there an easier solution?
Is there a way to properly set up the adb connection, that is also compatible with the broken screen problem I experience?
As this seems to be a more general question, I wasn't sure where to put this thread, but I could imagine that many approaches could lead to a satisfying result.
Just in case everthing fails, I also ordered a new screen from china, but it will probably take around 3-4 weeks to arrive...
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or feedback.
Thanks in advance!

it could be a hardware issue, most probably loose connection with the LCD Digitizer. you could try fixing it at a service or on your own.
Hey, and thanks!
You're right, it is most definitely a hardware issue. Hence, I ordered already a new screen.
Not sure if I want to break apart the whole phone again to check the connection to the LCD digitizer, if I can first try some software approaches...
The most pressing issue I have right now, is the missing authorization for usb debugging, as I can't answer any confirmation prompts send to the phone.
