ADB Issues

[mithu]

Hey guys,

I tried to search, and found info. But it didnt really help me.

Prolly a noob question:

So im trying to get access to ADB shell. ON my droid 2, that is rooted. I first go to terminal, and type:
Su
that gives me
#
after that i try
# adb shell
i get no such directory.

but if I reset terminal, and try adb shell. it gives adb: permission denied.

Im getting annoyed lol. Been trying for the past few days. :/

If U are doing this on ur phone U do not need to to type adb shell because su puts u in the shell. Plus U do not use adb command on the phone, only on computer. Once you get the # U type linux commands. Need more, let me know.

Thanks for quick reply. I feel stupid lol. the ABD file itself is in different folder. I think after 2.1 or something they moved it. I had to Download SDK 1st. then download all the other stuff thru the SDK.

I got the issue above fixed. Now im stuck at when i am in the shell with the #. I try to use this command:

sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

i get sqlite3: not found.


Thanks In advance haha

The above is not a Linux command. You are on the right track, but you will benefit greatly if you study this link.

It will teach you the basics of shell scripting and how Linux works. Be patient and study it.

Thank i will def read it.

I was just trying to remove the SMS limit on my phone. The guides out there are just repeat each other, and are sorta out dated. lol.

Also wanted to see how sqlite3 works.

Thanks Again
