Basic adb/shell commands for noobs

Here is a list of some of the adb and terminal command I have used it Android frequently. I found that I was always having to look up these commands so I figured I would start keeping track of the common ones in case they can help anyone else. If any of these needs corrections or if you have a good one to add please post it.

Note, I type "cd C:\Android" to get to my Android folder before doing these commands in the command prompt in windows. That way when I do things like pull apps they end up in "C:\Android\apps", same thing if I want to send I file to my phone I throw it in my Android folder and send it to the phone from there.

Through ADB

Pull apps off phone onto computer

Code:

adb pull /system/sd/app app

adb pull /system/sd/app-private app-private

Push apps back to phone from the computer

Code:

adb push app /system/sd/app

adb push app-private /system/sd/app-private

Delete existing apps on SD

Code:

adb shell rm -r /system/sd/app

adb shell rm -r /system/sd/app-private

Through Terminal

Partition SD card - This erases everything on your SD card (*size* being the size of the FAT32 partition)

Code:

$  su

# cd /data

# wget http://64.105.21.209/bin/lib/droid/sdsplit

# chmod 555 sdsplit

# /data/sdsplit -fs *size* (add -nc to the end for JFv1.5ADP)

From the Recovery Screen

Sending an update file to your SD card:

Code:

adb shell mount /sdcard

adb shell rm /sdcard/update.zip

adb push *filename* /sdcard/update.zip

From Fastboot

Restoring a nandroid backup - Start command-prompt/terminal cd to the nandroid folder and enter following commands

Code:

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash userdata data.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot

Good work, but add other commands too like for fastboot and mmpeg

Firstly u need drivers for your device (google it)
Now download the latest adb version
And in the folder where you downloaded the adb and the other two files, shift+right click and select open command window
Now you can use the adb commands once you connected your device

You can find all the adb files in my devhost :

Now it will be done
