[Q] ADB Installer - General Questions and Answers

Currently trying to root my Motorola Photon 4G, and cannot find the Android Debug Bridge to begin my root process, can anyone point me into the right direction on where to find the installer? Seems everyone links to the same place for the installer in root how-tos for the Photon.

If you can wait until tomorrow, I'll send you all the adb files.

Not in a hurry here, waiting to get my battery for my phone, upgrading to a Siedo extended life battery and need to be able to recalibrate the battery.

Here is a zip of the whole plat-form tools directory from the android SDK. Enjoy

You need to root your phone then flash a ROM with 3rd party apps enabled to install an app that is outside the android market.
Search 4shared.com and type applanet.apk or you could go to applanet.net

You can install an applanet apk via the sideload wonder machine but you won't be able to install the apps though it anyways.. ATT just won't let it happen.

yup basically, even after sideloading applanet, you'll still need to install apps via sideloading if you don't root.
Applanet is warez, although I'm sure everyone already knows that.

lol.
i will do you a favor. give me your com.htc.framework.jar located in /system/framework/
i will take care of it for you.
if you want to learn how to decompile apks, let me point you to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
more specifically to decompile jar files:
http://mastergenius.net/wordpress/2...le-apk-and-jar-files-for-android-smartphones/
in order to do the non-paginated app drawer, you need to decompile that jar file and edit some smali.... i have the exact lines that need to be modified, and a link to the original thread on it, but i dont think they want it posted here.
Okay. I'll do it tomorrow.

Adb (noob asking)

While looking at somethings about installing certain apps or rooting, I see that they say to use adb. Is this something used on the phone itself, computer, or both. From what I understand, it is similar to command prompt on the PC.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
Its a bridge for your comp to talk to the phone. With adb u can push pull remove files ect ect. Its a tool to learn if u want to get into andtoid modding.
Sent From Space Using My ICS Flavored Sensation
OK. Thanks. So, it's something to download online on my PC, then connect my phone to the PC, and go on from there. Is that correct?
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
Yep. Download the android sdk. Android.com
Java will need to be dloaded. Sdk will prompt that.

FYI
There is a pretty good thread about ADB that shows up as the first sticky in this questions and Answers forum.
Thank you both for your responses. They helped to clarify my understanding.

[Q] QHSUSB_DLOAD S-Off

Ok, I'd been on the Sense 5 Rom and Elemental 6.7 for a while. Today I noticed that my phone wasn't going to sleep and was normally clocked around 1.0 Ghz no matter what it was doing. I tried changing the settings with No-frills cpu control but it didnt work. Long story short: I rebooted into recovery and reflashed the kernel to see if it would fix the problem. I used the stock elemental x settings (no overclock or undervoltage). The kernel flashed, I pressed reboot and the phone went dark... It wont cut on, holding the power button does nothing and plugging it into the computer gets me the qhsusb_dload message that I've read isnt a good thing to have. However most people who had this problem seem to have gotten it from RUU while S-On, my phone was S-Off so I'm wondering does that help my chances any, and is there anything I can do to restore my phone?
Try the unbrick evita thread. You'll need to run linux by live usb or live CD if you don't run linux. A virtual machine could work too.
If you can make it past step 3 and the partitions are intact, you can restore your phone.

I tried the unbrick evita thread but the zip is no longer posted on dropbox. I worked up to step 3 and there are some /dev/sda/ folders which I am presuming are the partitions... I can't find the unbrick_evita.zip file so if anyone has it I would really appreciate it. If I can find it on my own I'll update this thread. Thanks in advance.

There should be a bunch of partitions Like in the picture in the unbrick thread if you only have 3 or 4 or 5 then it not recoverable.

Alright guys. Seems like I'm fully bricked. Another guy on here had the same issue and said he sent it to HTC and they covered it so I called and am gonna send it in as well. *Fingers crossed* If it doesnt work then I'll probably just save up and upgrade to the one.
I know I dont post a lot here, but I do a lot of reading and you all have been super helpful. Thanks for the hard work you all put into this.

If you are in QHSUSB-DLMODE after trying to install RUU, OTA, or a custom kernel, you are pretty much done, aside from JTAG or sending it to HTC. I don't believe anybody has unbricked from any of these conditions.

You could try for years and will not recover. You require specially signed files from HTC to recover from that.
You are more than welcome to try the unbrick evita thread but if your patitions don't enumerate (step 3) there Is no way to recover without signed files from HTC. Other than jtagg ofcourse.

Trouble updating to 4.4.3

Hi Guy, and thanks for a lovely forum.
I'm currently running 4.4.2 on my Nexus 5 rooted and with Exposed Installer and GravityBox[KK] (which has a modify kernel for the Exposed installer). I want to install the new OTA-update (4.4.3) but the installation always get aborted (unexpected counting) or something. Dose The EI and GB[KK] interfere with the update process or by the modify kernel or both?
Do I need to uninstall EI and GB[KK], unroot the Nexus 5? In that case, how? Or do a factory reset or di I need to install totally back to stock 4.4.3?
I'm running a Mac (the only computer i own, and I have on internet connection at home so I use my Nexus 5's 3G and use hotspot to the Mac so it's not possible to install ROM's/update via my Mac cause then I will not have an internet connection during the installation process).
Is it possible to return back to stock on my Mac? In case how?
Dose anyone know how to fix this problem or are able to help me solve this problem? All answers are appreciated. I really need to get the 4.4.3 update. It dose not matter if I need to do a full "wipe"/factory reset, I have everything backup.
//David

Thanks for the quick reply!
I do not fully understand the instructions for the Mac. I'm not so femilier with the terminal commands. Do I need to install adb and fastboot on me Mac also?
Do you think that you can help me understand a little better or go through with the steps?

Google 15 second adb drivers xda. That should set up adb/fastboot that'll you'll need. Then extract the file and just double click on the flash-all.sh

Hi again!
I manage to the part where you use commands for test if the Mac detected my Nexus 5 but I get error massage:
"macbook:android Macbook2$ ./adb devices
List of devices attached
044d1ff7251a31c9 unauthorized"
What seems to be the trouble?
