Adb ON the transformer

Was playing with the terminal emulator and noticed that the adb commands you could use in linux seem to work on the transformer! So I connected my evo 3d to it and typed adb devices and it didn't see my phone... do I need root? would be wicked cool if I could use adb from the tab then every time I want to flash a kernel I could use it instead of pulling out my M18x.

you need to install the asus suite for it to work.

Install it on what?

My bad, missed read the post. Though you were trying to get ADB to work for TF to PC. I now see what you're talking about.
I don't think kernel can be install using terminal anyway.

Any apps to check hard drive transfer rates on tf?

Hi i have a 500gb hard drive on my tf and i really want to know if its as quick on the tf as it is on the pc is there a way to check or a app?

Install Linux via chroot with an app from the market (I forget what it's called just search for Linux and/or chroot) or find a way to get the hdparm binary on your transformer then run hdparm -t /dev/[device name] from the terminal. That's the only way I know about going about it.

Had native ubuntu but the speed of that to android was different transfering the same file took longer in android than linux
Any terminal commands or anything if theres not an app

You mean the Unlock code from the HTC dev website?
I had similar troubles, I got through it by connecting to:
#HTC-one-XL
#android-root
and
#TWRP
on irc.freenode.net using my IRC client.
and asking the friendly people there.
If you're not familiar with IRC, can you post more about your situation here?
What OS are you running on the computer?
What "steps" have you been following? Link us to the thread.

I also have a telus hox. What part are you stuck on exactly?

my IS is windows 8 I have the driver sig disabled for ADB to work and I was able to retrieve the unlock code 3 times but it will not allow me to sendthe unlock bin file. Says cannot load
Unlock_code bin file, so I followed a guide someone made for Telus one X owners and try to use a spoof bat to install it still no luck I'm on
android 4.0.3.,htc sense 4.0, fw 1.91.661.4,htc sdkapi level 4.11.

So you got the unlock_code.bin file in your email and your put it with your adb and fastboot files correct?
And once that's in the same folder you opened a command prompt and typed
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

Yes and it comes up saying cannot load that it can't load that file.

Are you sure it's in the same folder. and you are typing the command in properly with upper and lower case where it should be?
Double check the name of the file in the folder to be sure. Sometimes windows adds (1) to the end or something

Yes in sure I have rooted an htc desire z, htc desire c, Samsung galaxy tablet, nexus 7, its just this one is being very strange on the final step.

There is your problem. Win8 is extremely problematic right now. Your drivers are not synching/downloading/installing. Even with downloading HTC sync. You'll have to do that from a computer that has win7 or lower, wait for the driver updates for win8 come out, or you could dual boot you PC with Ubuntu and do it on Ubuntu.

Nexus 5 unable to authorize

My friend got a new nexus 5 and for some reason the window that usually pops up to authorize the computer does not show up. Tried different cables, debugging is enabled, tried hard reset, software is updated. My nexus connects and authorizes fine. Inability to authorize is preventing us from being able to flash custom recovery. I was able to boot device into bootloader mode and unlock it though, but no luck when it is booted. Any ideas?

Yes, you know how a window would popup asking to reject or accept when debugging is enabled? That window never comes up. So, apps like nexus root toolking or most adb commands do not work.

You may need to run your pc without antivirus and firewall.. Right click a program and select run as administrator..

Also try switching/toggling modes when you plug the USB cable in

Sounds like you don't have the latest adb&drivers. This happened to me also. Those can undoubtedly be found somewhere on here by searching.

Not just the drivers, use a newer adb too. If that doesn't work you can clear the authorized devices on the phone and there is also a file located on your computer that I think needs to be deleted also.
My nexus was really picky on the debug 'handshake' whereas I had to remove all authorized computers/delete the file on my pc and use the newest adb and drivers - and even then I had to reboot the phone first (once everything was cleared) and use the newest adb & drivers to make it work right.

You need to re-install the universal drivers for that device as well, no matter if you installed for another previously. Happened to me with 3 nexuses 5 at home.

So do I just remove the old drivers then plug in my new n5 then let it do its magic? Or install it myself on Android sdk

Yep, uninstall. If you got google drivers or universal naked drivers, install them

It makes the regular USB sound when plugged in then immediately makes like a awkward different sound after assuming that it's not recognize man I need to do this before school tommorow
I went to device manager delted all drivers related to Nexus 5 then deleted google drive on Android sdk then reinstalled it... Rebooted computer and still not getting installed..

are you on a windows PC?
If so, on the start menu, type "Device manager", open it, look for Nexus 5 on the list of devices, right click it and choose "update driver software"
then, choose " Browse my computer/ let me pick form a list of devices drivers, choose one that says ADB, look for Google or LG, next" ... done
