Hi all,
I unlocked my bootloader and flashed Clockwork-recovery. I made a backup of the stock-Android using CWM -> Backup, and it shows in CWM that it wrote files to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/$DateEtc$.
How can I get those files to the PC now?
They don't show up in the mounted SD card.
Also, I tried adb pull /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/, which says the folder doesn't exist. I can pull /sdcard/clockworkmod/, but that gives me only the file ".recovery_version" and nothing more.
So how would I get those files to the PC?
Thanks,
@Elador.... Try this....
1) On your phone copy or move your backup file to the folder sdcard/Download
2) Connect your phone to PC as "Media Device"
3) The "Download" folder will be visable on your PC ..... Transfer your backup file wherever you want.
Turn on usb debugging in developing settings.
Download adb on your PC.
Connect your device to PC.
Enter to your cmd window:
adb devices
on your phone screen you should allow adb access
After that enter
adb pull /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup C:/
That's for coping all backups on C disk.

@metpolds: That didn't work, the files are not visible in the File Explorer on the device.
@S0bes: Awesome! That finally worked! Thank you very much!

I just rooted the phone (I know this because I installed a screen shot app and it works) and I'm trying to copy a private app that is free off of my phone onto my computer. But, I cannot figure it out. Could someone please give me step-by-step instructions. I would really appreciate this.
It sounds like you have completed this process:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581577
But read it and make sure you complete the last step to flash the recovery rom.
www.androidspin.com/downloads...roc-v1.2.3.img
He kind of botched the last command instead of:
adb shell flash_image recovery recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img
it should be:
adb shell
cd /sdcard/
su
flash_image recovery recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img
Once you make sure this is done, turn of your phone and then hold Home button and press end button. This should load the recovery, choose Nandroid Backup once you are done backing up you will want to flash Modaco's 1.1 rom. More information can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581846
Once this is done connect your phone to your pc, and open command prompt.
type in:
cd "the directory where the sdk is" \tools
then type:
If you are using appstosd with ext2 and fat32 partitioned sdcard:
adb pull /system/sd/app app
If you are using just fat32, no appstosd:
adb pull /data/app app
this will put all your apps into a directory named app in your \tools folder on your pc.
for private apps just replace app with app-private
alternatively, you can move apps one at a time with the command:
leave out " ".
adb pull /system/sd/app/"appname" "appname"
This will place the file directly into your tools directory. Hope this helps.
Yep, thats what I did. But I didn't flash the recovery rom. If I do that will it erase all my applicastion that I have installed? I didn't want to do that because the app I want to backup was free when I downloaded it but now it's not.
Ok, so I followed all the instructions above and go the in MoDaCo rom flashed. Then, when I tried to pull the apps off the sdcard I get a permissions denied error.

Now I have a new problem. It says "adb: not found". Now what?
Thanks for being so helpful everyone.
adb is a command that is run outside of the shell
for example your prompt would still be at
c:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb pull /data/app-private (location)
you can't use adb inside of adb shell
Ah, I didn't know adb had to be run outside of the shell.
Now it says there aren't any files in app-private but I know there are two in there.
Hi,
I'm new here, so I don't know how to put this...
I have a HTC Legend 2.2 Froyo with HBoot 1.01 and I want to downgrade and root it so I can put CM7 on it. Can anyone tell me how to do this?
Thanks!

Thanks, but at the first step, where I type ''adb shell'' it
says:''adb: permission denied''.
What do I have to do?
On linux, make sure adb is executable. On windows, make sure you run cmd as an administrator
Help?
I always did it on my phone with Terminal Emulator(Temprooted). When I type in ''adb shell'' it gives ''adb: permission denied''. When I try it on my PC(Windows) With only charge and USB debugging on, adb doesn't find my phone.(This is also in fastboot mode)
It gives: ''error: device not found''. What on earth am I doing wrong?
Adb isn't executed on the phone, it's on the pc. The phone should be running normally when you run it (with usb debugging enabled)
Also install htc sync to get the correct drivers
Rehash: start the phone normally. Ensure usb debugging is enabled. Plug the gizmo into your pc. Run adb shell in the command prompt as administrator

Adb is not a valid binary on the phone.
When you issue adb shell you're dropped in to the shell on the phone. Any commands entered there execute on the phone. Type exit to get out of the shell before executing the push commands

Oh OK, I see, but when I type in just ''push goldcard.img /data/local/'' after adb shell, it says: ''push: permission denied''. (running as admin in windows and temprooted phone)
Exit out of the phone's shell, them the command is
Code:
adb push goldcard.img /data/local

Introduction :
We all know how to copy files from PC to Android Device and vice-versa (I guess )
But say, in some rarest of situations, where your phone is being recognized by PC on connection with USB cable, but for some reason, 'My Computer' or whatever File Explorer does not show your device, or doesn't lists files and directories of your phone, and you would want to transfer files, then this guide is for you.
I would have put the title, the one written below, but it won't fit in the Title
Transfer files from your PC to phone and vice-versa even if 'My Computer' does not recognize your phone properly.
However, PC must recognize it (when a notification sound is played on connection).
Requirements :
1. You
2. An Android Device.
3. A PC. (I will use windows 8 in this guide)
4. ADB installed on your PC and configured for your phone.
Procedure:
Let this be the situation

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"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"
}
As you can see, My Computer says 'This folder is empty', but actually I have 2 main folders , sdcard0 and sdcard1
Now what you have to do is open ADB. To do that, Hold Shift+Right click on your ADB folder and then select 'Open Command Prompt window here'
First we will check whether ADB recognizes the Device, to do that, type :
Code:
adb devices
If your device is recognized, the result will be
If it does not recognize, nothing will show up in the list.
Now, the main thing, to transfer file, I will be transfering 'Gallery.apk' to my sdcard0 main directory.
I have kept the Gallery.apk in C:\ for easy address.
Now the general format of the code:
Code:
adb push <source address> <destination address>
Source address here is C:\ and target address is storage/sdcard0/
You can check for address of a location on your Phone by always viewing properties with a file explorer of a folder or a file.
So I type :
Code:
adb push C:\Gallery.apk storage/sdcard0/
First, before executing it, I will show no Gallery.apk is present in referred directory
After typing the code, it should look like this :
Execute it.
On successful execution, it will look like
You can do the same thing to transfer files from Phone to PC
Code would be :
Code:
adb pull <source address> <destination address>
Remember, here source address will be the address of file present in your phone and destination address would be the desired location you would want to put the file in.
This should work even if your phone is not showed up in My Computer at all, but however PC detects it and so does adb.
Transferring multiple files will really be painful, but wait, trick is even here too.
Just press the up arrow key in command prompt and the last statement would appear, now just change address and your hard work is reduced to just work .
Cases when this won't work -
1. ADB is not configured. Head over to this thread to set up ADB. You can Google it more info.
2. ROM installed on your phone has storage issues (like mount problems).
If you feel this guide has helped, then there is no harm in pressing Thanks button

what about:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img
?
& to recover just via dd vice versa
I did this on Moto G4, Moto G5, Moto G5s Plus ...
Is it possible on Moto G6?

I appreciate the response: you seem to be knowledgeable in this and so I have another question for you:
when it comes to the ADB method as I have Android Studio SDK and i have the latest platform tools downloaded in the configuration setup.
Do I do this in AP Fastboot mode or do I boot to Recovery Mode?
Which should I use?

I have the stock ROM on USB now, but hè will not install it. When i press the home and enter button and plug the power cable. Hè start up with the MI logo and shuts down, then start up with no screen.
Are there other ways to install the stock ROM?
AFAIK the Stock ROM typically gets installed by means of ADB Sideload method:
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot sideload
adb sideload <FULL-PATH-TO-STOCK-ROM-ZIP-FILE-ON-PC-HERE>

Didn't think it can be so difficult.
Assumed the Stock ROM's file is located in root of E: drive then the ADB command in your case becomes
Code:
adb sideload E:\<NAME-OF-STOCK-ROM-ZIP-FILE>
where you have to substitute
<NAME-OF-STOCK-ROM-ZIP-FILE>
by ROM's true file name

ah ok. lets try.
It seems not so difficult but, for the first time is everything more difficult
What do i wrong. sorry! I do really my best
1, i have a format 16gb usb FAT32
2. i have install ADB installer.
3. i have download the stock rom (see picture)
4. my drive name is e:
5. When i zip my stock rom file, i got an another zip file, and an file of 1kb
in the next picture is what i do in CMD
anglee_full_9.0.0.1911 is my zipped stock rom downloadfile
the other 2 are the unzipped files from the first file
1st screenshot provided above shows
1. Device isn't connected via USB-cable with PC or, if, not powered on
2. The ROM's archive name you entered is without fileextension -> required :ZIP
If ROM's archive is packed as .RAR file then you have it to repack to .ZIP file
I think it will not gonna help.
When i connect my projector to the pc, the pc dont recognize him.
What i try, nothing works.
but thanks for your help anyway
