Two things first.
Your thread title, well sorry to say it sucks . Thread titles should give information about thread. Every second thread is called "please help" people get bored by that and don't even look into them anymore. A good title enables people to take one look and know wether they can help or not.
This should probably go to Questions&Answers too .
Now that i ranted a bit lets get to your question.
You can't install anything on the android sdk.
You can install something on the emulator provided by the sdk.
I guess thats what you meant?
typing "adb -help" into the console gives us this:
Code:
adb install [-l] [-r] [-s] <file> - push this package file to the device and install it
('-l' means forward-lock the app)
('-r' means reinstall the app, keeping its data)
('-s' means install on SD card instead of internal storage)
You could try that command to install LauncherPro on the emulator.
Is this what you wanted to know?

Will do. I figured out I could just use the android browser within the emulator to download apps and I can install them just like on my phone. I still want to know how to do this.

Try adb.exe then, adb devices.

install Android SDK if you already have it add SDK folder to system path
or just start working from adb.exe folder -open cmd.exe in this folder usually ~\android-sdk\platform-tools\ don't forget to enable usb debugging on your phone
i.e.
I installed sdk in C:\Android so output from adb devices is something like that (look at the picture)
also check in Device Manager (start/run/devmgmt.msc) if you see ADB Interface when connected if not something is wrong make sure when phone is connected you see something like that in attached pict. (if not install HTC sync to get phone drivers )
adb devices is a vital check to see if pc connection is working well don't do anything until you get output from adb !

Get fastboot and adb tool for windows here OK
Download my universal misc_version and unzip to obtain the misc_version file. OK
Download tacoroot OK
Place both the misc_version and tacoroot.bin files in the same directory as adb OK
Procedure
Check the version number for your gingerbread RUU
my example : RUU_Flyer_HTC_WWE_2.23.405.3_R_Radio_20.3501.30.08 9BU_3809.05.04.10_M_release_194964_signed.exe
Boot your flyer up to android if it's not already on, with usb debugging enabled and connect it to the PC. OK
Run the following adb commands
Code:
adb push tacoroot.bin /data/local/
adb push misc_version /data/local/
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tacoroot.bin
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tacoroot.bin --setup So far so good
At this point your device will reboot to recovery
Simultaneously press Volume Up, Volume Down and Power
Reboot your device
Run the following command OK
Code:
adb shell /data/local/tacoroot.bin --root
Your device will reboot, do not worry if it does not boot fully, it doesn't matter for this procedure, and it is a side effect of this root exploit.
For my part, nothing happens at this time when I made...
Run the following command:
Code:
adb shell /data/local/misc_version -s 2.23.405.3
Reboot to fastboot:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader OK
Relock the bootloader:
Code:
fastboot oem lock OK
Go back to fastboot mode ( lock causes the device to reboot )
Run your RUU The progress bar appears but stops and says "error 140"...
What shall I do to solve this problem?
May be a concern of the RUU!

[ADB]ADB v1.0.31 - Fix For ADB Staying Offline in Android 4.2.2

Seems some of the user unable to get the ADB working on Android 4.2.2 as the command prompt always stated that the device is offline so now I open my first thread after I found out the solution
What is ADB?
ADB, or the Android Debug Bridge, is a development tool included with the Android SDK (Software Developer Kit), which allows for communication from an Android device (such as a phone or tablet) to a personal computer, and vice-versa. This communication can be made over a wifi connection. However more commonly, it is made via a USB cable. adb can also be used by developers for communicating from a computer to a virtual android machine that is also running on the computer.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Android 4.2.2 now enforces RSA authentication via ADB and this is only supported in the latest versions of ADB.
In Android 4.2.2 (which corresponds to CyanogenMod 10.1), Google implemented some new security features for using ADB. The new "secure debugging" feature requires that you manually approve your computer for an ADB connection. This approval must be done from within the device, and only after any screen lock has been bypassed.
To access your 4.2.2 or higher device via ADB, you MUST ensure you are using a recently-updated Android SDK. Once the SDK (and therefore ADB) has been updated, you must ADB kill-server and ADB start-server any existing ADB daemon running on your computer. The first time you try to connect via ADB, you should receive a prompt on your device to Allow USB debugging? for this device (along with an RSA fingerprint identifying the computer). You may select the Always allow from this computer check box if you want the device to remember this computer, in which case you will not be prompted again when connecting your device to that specific PC.

Information from GitHub
ADB with version of 1.0.31 or later will works for Android 4.2.2
In order to use ADB :
Go to the ADB directory. Example C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
Shift + Right click and then click "Open command window here"
{
"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_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
OR use the command in command prompt
Code:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
NOTE : You can change the directory based on where you placed the ADB files in your computer by simply changing the command to :
Code:
cd <your directory>
To check for ADB version :
Code:
adb version
There are two ways of upgrading your ADB version
Upgrade through Android SDK Manager
Extract the ZIP file that I attached below to the directory you want (example C:\ drive) and redirect your command prompt to the specific directory using "Shift + Right click" or by using the command in command prompt :
Code:
cd <your directory>
Before upgrading your ADB :
After upgraded ADB :
If your ADB is working correctly, you will see this when you plug in for the first time.
NOTE : Cyanogenmod (based) ROMs require the following setting to export kernel logs via adb: Settings >> Developer Options >> Root access >> select "Apps and ADB"
NOTE : The RSA key for the host computer is stored in directory /data/misc/adb/adb_keys
After you press the OK button, in command prompt :
Code:
adb devices
NOTE : Some user reported that the ADB over network doesn't works if the option "Always allow from this computer" is not checked. So make sure you select the option if you want to use ADB over network
now you will get something like this and you are done...ENJOY

Some useful ADB command
Code:
adb shell
Code:
adb logcat
To get a normal logcat
Code:
adb logcat -v long > logcat.txt
OR
Code:
adb logcat -v time -d > logcat.txt
OR
Code:
adb logcat > logcat.txt
To get a radio logcat
Code:
adb logcat -b radio -v time -d > logcat_radio.txt
To get a kernel log
Code:
adb shell su -c dmesg > dmesg.txt
To get a last_kmsg
Code:
adb shell su -c "cat /proc/last_kmsg" > last_kmsg.txt

ADB over network
Thank you for this great tutorial.
I've got ADB saying device is offline with ADB over network even with the latest version of ADB. See my post
In fact, if you try to connect over network for the first time, you won't get the popup.
So, make sure you connect with USB and check "Always allow from this computer" before connecting over network.
And if you are using Ubuntu you can get the latest adb via:
Code:
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb

[Q] I need help unlocking bootloader

I am trying to unlock the bootloader on my US Moto G 16 G. I have followed the instructions provided in Unlock Youe Device and Android Pit. I have followed the instructions in the FAQ as well.
After I input "$ fastboot oem get_unlock_code" i get the following reply " '$' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file."
I have searched for the reply in Google, but I cannot come across another user who has documented this issue and how to resolve it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No dice bro. No matter what I type, I get back "[whatever the first word in the command I type] is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I don't even know what to try next.

Oh I get you now, have you got fastboot and adb installed? If so point it to the folder that contains fastboot and adb iI usually place it on c drive in a folder called android so in command prompt to point it adb I would type cd c:/android then execute your commands

Well, I don't know if I have adb installed. I only downloaded and installed the 2 files mentioned in the Motorola page. Android SDK and the latest Motorola drivers. I can navigate to any folder in terminal (all I do is Shift+Right click on a folder and select open command window here...)

You don't actually need the android SDK ,install adb and fastboot from the previous link I posted above
Install drivers point cmd to folder containing adb and fast boot type in cmd "adb devices" if your phone is recognised it will show a serial number,if so continue with the unlock process,
If its not recognised the drivers aren't installed properly if so download pdanet for windows and set it up ( its a tethering app but it installs drivers) get it here http://pdanet.co/bin/PdaNetA4126.exe
Check again if device is recognised and if so continue with rest of process

HOW TO UNLOCK BOOTLOADER ON LENOVO TAB TB-7504X

I am using 'fastboot oem unlock' but
Erorr shows me
'fastboot (remote : unknown command)
How to solve this problem
???
Please help me

Download the latest version of fastboot & ADB.
You can see what version adb and fastboot you have installed, just open a command window and type: sudo adb --version (then hit enter) sudo fastboot --version (hit enter key) that will show your installed version of those tools. I believe right now the latest is 31.02 but I could be wrong. It is updated often and using an older release of adb and fastboot can and will cause issues..
Go here to download adb and fastboot. https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Just download the android sdk for whatever OS you use on your computer, unzip...
What is the device you are trying to unlock? Have you enabled developer options on the phone and changed usb settings to file transfer instead of the default which is charging? Also have if that was done did you keep a close eye on your device because there will be a small box that pops up that must be immediately checkmarked so that your computer can communicate with your device. Have you selected "allow oem unlock"Also in the developer options? it might be good idea to set your lock screen to "none" instead of having a lock set for it. Any time anything is installed on a computer it almost always needs to be rebooted. If you have not done any of that I would suggest doing it all.
Also depending on what device you are attempting to unlock the bootloader on, the wording could be slightly different. My Pixel 4XL uses: fastboot flashing unlock , to unlock bootloader. So keep that in mind as well. If you use Windows OS on your computer some day when you have a minute check out Linux. You can make a "live USB" burn a copy of a Linux distro to a USB drive and boot from it and or install it along with your Windows OS, aka dual boot... The very first time I used Linux, it was Ubuntu and quite a few years ago and I would never return to Windows!! Can't stand it! Linux is made for doing what we do to our phones.
If you need more any help with this some other time and still cannot get it installed message me on here or should I say "start a conversation" with me here on xda. Same thing with the new layout.. My user name is the same here on XDA as it is on telegram. Feel free to shoot me a message any time. It may take a some time to respond depending on what day it is and what time and all that but I will respond.
Here is one of the best guides in my opinion on how to get and setup adb and fastboot tools on MAC, Linux and Windows OS. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-unlock-flash-root-for-the-pixel-2-xl-taimen.3702418/

Try typing: sudo fastboot --version & sudo adb --version and make 100/% that they are most current and up to date. I'll go grab a link really fast...
Okay idk how you installed adb & fastboot but this guide in my opinion is the best!!! https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-unlock-flash-root-for-the-pixel-2-xl-taimen.3702418/
Try using different ports, reboot your computer..
Did you already have the pop up on your device once connected to computer or no? If not your it won't work at all.
Enable developer options
USB debugging
Now plug in to a different USB port.
Now scroll down on phone to default USB configuration and change it from the default which is "charging" to "file transfer" but keep your eyes on your device screen because the pops up will only show itself for a few seconds. When it does checkmark the box. You should be good then. Windows has driver issues alot of the time!! I switched to Linux years ago and I have no driver issues. Or anything else far as that goes.
