I have been trying to do this at work and cannot figure it out at all. I have unlocked my bootloader and it is rooted and installed custom Twerp recovery. I have downloaded firewater but then am stuck. I have opened up CMD and typed in adp reboot but nothing happens. in the instructions it says I need to do this:
Push, Prepare, and Execute firewater:
adb reboot <–important!!!!
adb wait-for-device push firewater /data/local/tmp
adb shell
su
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/firewater
/data/local/tmp/firewater
Question is how do I push, Prepare etc? Sorry I have read so many posts this afternoon I am starting to go stir crazy. I have moded loads of samsung phones but this really is starting to go over my head. Any help would be wonderfull

do you have adb and fastboot installed on your computer?
if yes have you opened your cmd prompt from adb/fastboot folder?
is you rphone drivers correctly installed on the computer?

Error says adb is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
Will try and watch a youtube video tonight. Spent way to much time on this today

That mean your cmd prompt doesn't find ADB.exe either because you don't have it or because you did not started the command prompt from adb.exe folder.

So I go into cmd and into the sdk/tools directory and typed in adb devices. It shows my phone HT03xxxxxx offline. Am I missing something here?
I just wanted to reboot in recovery through there and its telling me that the device is offline.
I flashed fresh 2.1.2 and the su fix update if that means anything.
Edit--
I did a nandroid and flashed back to 2.1.1
Went into cmd and ran adb shell with no problem...
I just did a wipe and will reflash 2.1.2 and try it again

Are you using Windows or Linux? Either way; you should kill the adb server and try again. In Linux to do this:
sudo su ./adb kill-server
sudo su ./adb start-server
Then try running your adb commands again. (e.g. adb devices, adb shell)
To kill the server in windows:
adb kill-server
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then unplug your phone and plug it back in and see if that changes anything.
The Windows command to reboot into recovery via adb is:
adb reboot recovery

I had 2.1.1, and flashed 2.1.2 with no wipe. I didn't reboot, but flashed the su fix zip file, and then I rebooted. Maybe that's why I didn't achieve any adb commands.
I did a data/factory wipe, then flashed 2.1.2. I rebooted and set my google account up. After it was up and running, I booted in recovery manually. I flashed the su fix and rebooted. Now I'm all set. I went into cmd and got my shell back. Now I'm all set. Just a pain in the ass and redownload all my apps again.
Thanks for your help though.
Hey guys im new here and new to android too. my android sdk doesnt seem to work anymore. when i typed adb shell, it will show daemon starts successfully. it worked flawlessly previously. however when i tried using adb command like adb devices all these, it will shows "adb not found" what does this mean? i open the command prompt at the tools folder and have tried to reinstall my samsung I9000 driver but still it doesnt work. Is it cos of the path i set is wrong or wad? Im using window 7 and the folder name of tat android sdk is called "android" on my desktop. can anyone help me with this??? thanks. i need the adb to work in order to install some game and root. thanks in advance
Reinstall SDK
i tried reinstalling driver and sdk and the result is still the same. any other suggestion?
Not sure if it helps, but I had problems installing i9000 drivers until I installed Kies. Kies installed all the drivers perfectly.
you have to restart the adb daemon as root, eg:
sudo ./adb kill-server
sudo ./adb start-server
edit: just read that you are using windows ... so run the command without he "sudo" but under the admin-user ...

Do you have the fastboot.exe in the same directory as adb.exe?
I realize that these threads are every where but re posting in hopes of helping someone out. Every bit of mt's AIO worked for me, but AIO 2 for Zv8 would not.
You could always do this manually using adb. Here's how.
Push CWM Recovery image to your phone manually once in rooted zv8.
1. Open the ZV8CWMRecovery folder on your PC.
2. Double click the 'Files' folder to go into that directory.
3. Highlight/select and copy the address of your current folder location on your PC. It will look something like this:
Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\Downloads\ZV8CWMRecovery\Files
4. Click Start>Run>type 'cmd' and hit enter/return to open your command prompt.
5. Type 'cd', hit your spacebar, then paste your address which you copied in step 3 into your command prompt, hit enter/return.
6. You should now be positioned in the folder containing the adb and CWMRecovery files.
7. Type the following to copy the CWMRecovery image to your phone:
Code:
adb devices
adb remount
adb push cwmrecovery.img /data/local/tmp/cwmrecovery.img
adb shell dd if=/data/local/tmp/cwmrecovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14 bs=4096
adb shell "rm /data/local/tmp/* 2>/dev/null"
adb shell rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
adb shell rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p
adb shell rm /data/local.prop
adb reboot
Phone should reboot. Try and boot into CWMRecovery after it reboots.
you can do that by typing: adb reboot recovery
all thanks go to brad 6360 for lending a hand and general lack of DoucheBaggery!
You're welcome. Glad I could help.
I'm stuck on adb remount cmd. Here's the output I get:
adb remount
remount failed: Operation not permitted
Any ideas? This is the same place I had issues running the AIO .bat file. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Make sure you have internet connection and usb debugging enabled.

I was having the same problems. No matter what I tried, AIO, this method, etc, nothing worked when I was using my computer to get CWM back after ZV8. I found this thread that uses terminal emulator on the phone and it worked perfectly.

I never could get cwm working but a friend recommended QuickBoot, gives you the boot into recovery mode. Works great.

This is the same thing as terminal emulater on your phone
with this you can open a shell inside your phone running on your pc
Same commands
Thanks for the suggestions. I ended up getting it to work. I just skipped the adb remount cmd and started with pushing the img. Then I used the su cmd in shell to get a # prompt and ran the rest of the cmds as written including reboot recovery. CWM popped up on boot!

Hey all. Last night I was helping a friend keep root through the V8 update. Everything went fine until I thought that I had manually pushed clockwork, but when I tried to reboot into recovery I got stuck on the LG logo forever. How I'm having trouble getting the phone to do anything. When in emergency mode it won't connect to the computer and it's not even my phone so I feel like a real #$%^^. Any advice would be appreciated.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1564941 allow me to answer my own question
Hello all, I think this is going to be easily answered here as I can't find the answer anywhere else.
I am trying to use ADB to pull the entire contents of /sdcard/
Ive been typing the following commands
adb root
adb shell
adb pull -p /sdcard/ C:\Users\
after typing the pull command I just end up at a '>' prompt and nothing happens.
I'm using a Win 10 machine, CMD running as admin. My phone is I9305, rooted running CM 12.1, debugging is enabled and I have even installed ADBD insecure.
I have been doing all this with the device booted.
What obvious mistake am I making?
Is your device getting detected in command prompt by typing "adb devices"?
My issue was fixed after EFS repaired and ADB starts detecting my phone
