How can I use this to run my application from IntelliJ (AndStudio)!

I have installed this. I have given it root access, I have applied Wifi mode, I have then tried to connect to the IP address in Wifi info but I just keep getting the message that it cannot connect. No problems with USB. Can anyone confirm that it works using wifi?

The question that strikes me is .. how is this different to other tools like adb wireless?
What I am looking for ist a tool that fixes my adb to wireless regardless of a reboot or of a wifi toggle and easily lets me set it back to permanent USB. Haven't found that yet. I can boot with adb wireless with an init.d script but there is not a real simple way to turn that off I want to go back to USB. Maybe that's sort of a brain teaser

Doesn't work!
Settings are dead.
Don't even try this crap, guys.
P.S.: Anyone took a look inside? May be it is some root trojan?

useless
Or you can just open terminal emulator and type:
Code:
su
setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
restart adbd
And you can disable it and return ADB to listening on USB with
Code:
su
setprop service.adb.tcp.port -1
restart adbd
PC side:
Code:
adb tcpip 5555
adb connect 192.168.x.x

Android Studio keeps starting up its own instance of ADB. To use this with android studio you need to run adb kill-server and the the adb connect command.

It does work the way that you have mentioned, however i didn't find it very convenient to type in those commands everytime i had to develop. It works either way so choose whatever you are comfortable with.

[mod] Clockwork recovery 3.0.2.8 [easy install] v3

I have put together a little program to allow me to install recovery quicker because I got fed up of it taking so long.
Its dead easy to use!
instructions
download file
unzip
connect vega and make sure usb debugging in enabled
click windows_install, mac_install, or linux_install to flash depending on what your running (u should know that )
wait for that to finish
to boot into recovery click the recovery icon in your app draw
Download v3 clicky - mirror 1
another v3 - mirror 2
For those of you that are having an "error: device not found"
It means that you dont have the adb drivers installed correctly
To check right click on the windows folder and click command prompt here. then type adb devices
If nothing shows up then it means the drivers arent installed
To install them correctly follow this guide

v1 - windows only
v2 - added mac and linux
v3 - updated to CW 3.0.2.8
thanks go to @mad murdock for making the image and now for fast mirrors
also thanks to @bob1369 who has made a mac and Linux version
i have created mac and linux versions
linux; http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JNEP1GJ5
mac; http://www.megaupload.com/?d=O73B61F0
i suggest creating a small automator app on the mac to further speed installation of clockworkmod just drag run shell script into a work flow and write in the box below the code you would usually use to run the script from terminal e.g.
cd /route/to/script
./install.sh
This worked a treat for me.
I used it to update cwm to the latest version.
Thanks very much for a time saving app.

well done! pretty userfriendly - will link to this post
i mirrored your files - if thats okay with you. at least mirror 1 got gigabit ethernet connection - i download with 2mb/s from it (my local maximum). if you dont wanna use that mirror, tell me, i remove files and links
had to rename file since spaces are no-go the _noflash hopefully keeps "cwm gives error due flashing" on a low degree - people tend to flash every .zip from recovery.
hope that helps...

hmmm, a little confused by this one. mines works correctly and shows up under adb devices but mine shows up as android composite adb interface
try an install like this
http://android.modaco.com/content/advent-vega-vega-modaco-com/327084/what-to-do-when-your-usb-drivers-are-wrong-win7-64/
i think that should set it up right
have you used the vega and adb before?
Thank you. I will try that right now. Used adb with a desire until today.

ATTN: Backup your boot0 block today

ATTENTION: PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
It has come to my attention that under certain circumstances when the Kindle HD's get stuck in a bootloader bootloop the information on the "boot0" block of the internal storage can be ERASED and RESET.
This partition is special and contains ALL of your device's hardware specific information:
- Wifi MAC address + Encoded Secret for registering w/ Amazon services
- BT MAC address
- Serial #
etc
FOR BACKING UP THIS PARTITION:
Code:
adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot0 of=/sdcard/boot0block.img"
adb pull /sdcard/boot0block.img
Place the "boot0block.img" file with the other files that you backed up in the original instructions for safe keeping.
FOR RESTORING THIS PARTITION:
(do not do this unless you are absolutely SURE that your boot0 block got wiped out -- hopefully you never need to)
This is done via adb from your PC while the device is in TWRP recovery or in the Android OS (not fastboot):
Code:
cd <your safekeeping files>
adb push boot0block /sdcard/boot0block.img
adb shell "echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro; dd if=/sdcard/boot0block.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot0;"
THIS FILE IS UNIQUE TO YOUR DEVICE AND CANNOT BE REPLACED OR REBUILT FROM ANOTHER DEVICE. DO NOT SHARE IT WITH ANYONE AS IT CONTAINS INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DEVICE USED BY AMAZON DURING REGISTRATION.
very interesting Hashcode,thanks for the information :good:
Odd, I can't seem to find the file after I pulled it with ADB.
EDIT: I didn't even assign the command an output location to begin with. LOL.
Thanks for the info.
How can I access KFHD via ADB if CM10.1 installed.
I can't see my device in device manager only as a media storage or sth like that.
Should I remove KFHD adb driver and install the google driver?
Or just using the hidden trick in cm10.1?
"Enable Developer options in your phone (Settings > About phone and tap Build Number until you are a developer (about 7 times)
Set root access for APPS and ADB in: Settings > Developer Options > Root Access
Enable Android debugging at the same page (Developer Options). Enable ADB over network if you need.
Check if your Settings > Security > Unknown Sources is checked. you will need it to install over ADB."
Yeah...it helped

Just turn on ADB debugging on the tablet, and plug it into the computer. On the computer, open command prompt, use the command "adb devices" to see if your ADB is working.
Other than that, I don't know what happened in your post.
Ok i really can't figure this one out, I used adb many times while testing KFFAide tool so I am 100% sure my adb drivers are installed correctly, But since i switched to cm10.1 (Thanks hashcode) ADB cannot recognize my device anymore, I have enabled ADB on my KFHD and when i connect it to my pc a small notification appears "Android debugging enabled" but when i use "adb devices" command nothing shows up!
Can anyone help me with this i'm completely lost here!

Leave the device plugged in, go to Developer Setting and uncheck ADB debugging, then check it again. You should see a prompt, select OK for both.

Why don't you guys try this, go into CMD while connected with the device (ADB debugging on), and type "adb devices" to start the daemon, then try the commands. Other than that, I don't know what else to do.

Nope. Just get "List of Devices Attached" but no serial number. Checked device manager and it's showing up as a portable device. Probably will reinstall them and see if that solves it.
On a side note:
if we ran these commands in terminal emulator on the device, would that be sufficient?

run the first command then pull it manually
But we need to know what's going on, i will need adb sometime soon when prokennexusa releases the next version of KFFAide

Normally you would notice WiFi doesn't work under any circumstances same for BT. And when on Amazon's software it won't let you register.

I can't get ADB to find it either, think i'll revert back to stock to get the file then go back to CM - I notice though on CM turning USB Debugging on doesn't change anything in device manager, it still stays connected as a media device or camera, depending on which you have ticked in storage setting *shrugs*
Thank you Hashcode

No don't, just type the command hashcode provided in terminal emulator and you'll find the backup in your sdcard, just copy it to your pc like normal!
You can do it from the terminal without typing ADB. that may be why people are confused. Start with hashcodes command but start with "su -c" in the terminal.

ADB Device not found, HELP !!!!!!

Hello, Today i have installed Cyanogenmod 11. But after rebooting i connected my mobile to PC and in command prompt
i gave a command " adb devices" and the list is empty. :crying: This happened after flashing CM11. HELP !!!!!
I can access internal memory as a media device.

As above.
You'll need ADB active on the phone.
And a new / updated version of the ADB drivers / tools on your desktop.
Also, you will get a dialog prompt on the phone to confirm a security encrypted key (to allow ADB between your desktop and your phone)
This is something Google introduced on 4.1 (I think) which, if is not set, will end in a "devices not found" when trying to use ADB

Try to disable/enable USB debugging again and check if the adb device is listed in your device manager.
You can also try this ADB/fastboot bundle (Includes the google drivers) and work on all folders

Question ADB TCPIP mode w/o cable

I've been looking around for a way to enable ADB TCPIP mode without cable, and I just couldn't find something that works without rooting the device first. The Tasker trick is waaay too complicated, and I couldn't make it work on my Pixel 7 Pro.
When root is available, things look simple: run "setprop persist.adb.tcp.port 5555" or modify /system/build.prop to include a line to that effect. Assume that I go to the trouble of rooting my phone, and make the requisite change in /system/build.prop, will I be able to un-root afterward while keeping the change I made intact?
Edit: here's a wild thought: maybe I can actually tinker with the official Android factory image, hence add the requisite line to /system/build.prop in vitro, as it were, repackage the whole thing as a modified image, and then flash it onto my (unrooted) phone. Will that work? Or does the flashing process check the checksum before flashing?

For one, my adb doesn't seem to know the "adb pair" command ("adb: unknown command pair"). Moreover, the IP address provided by the "Pair with device" menu is funny, along the lines of 100.xxx.xxx.xxx, hence it's not an usual 192.168.xxx.xxx. Finally, this doesn't really lend itself to scripting, as the pairing code changes all the time.

Update your tools, you should be on 33:
Code:
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41
Version 33.0.3-8952118
Installed as /usr/lib/android-sdk/platform-tools/adb
I have a script for that, I forgot to include it...
Edit: can't attach it for some reason, anyways, here's a link to my git: update_platform_tools
Thanks. This is what I am getting when attempting to pair:
Code:
[email protected]:~$ adb pair 100.78.124.214:32989
Enter pairing code: 521129
error: unknown host service

Do you have your phone and PC connected via wifi to the same router?

Same router, yes, though my PC is on a wired connection.

I checked on my Windows PC and it does not connect when the PC is connected via cable.
It works when both devices are connected via WiFi.

Thank you. Anyway, it may not be of much help, as this procedure needs to be repeated after each reboot, and is not scriptable. I, for one, am interested in writing a script. For now, it's easier for me to connect the phone via USB and run my script every time after reboot.
About the rooting/un-rooting questions I was asking in the OP, any opinions about those?

As for things you can do with root, I have nothing to offer, in fact, I am totally against it. It just causes unnecessary problems with the device.
However, you *may* be able to modify the stock rom with an Android ROM Kitchen, emphasis on the "may".

(...) then flash it onto my (unrooted) phone. Will that work? Or does the flashing process check the checksum before flashing?

So what's would the point of OTA file signatures if anyone could modify the original ROM with dangerous changes?

It worked fine for me after killing adb ($ adb kill-server)
Tasker and LADB app are working on my P7P perfectly, no cable required, no root - more info here.
