I'm attempting to get webtop from HDMI to work and attempted the install.bat thing but still nothing so I went to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12580345&postcount=634
I can push those files but can not SU in adb shell
I am able to SU in terminal on my phone but not the adb shell
What can I do to get this working? I'm not sure what info you need from my phone to better assist but ask.
I'm running 2.2.2 rooted with gingerbreak I tried to reroot but no go don't think i need too and superuser app is there and works since i use TB and bloat freeze
I just get permission denied thanks for any help. I have googled this but can't find anything.
could you maybe have a problem with ADB itself? Maybe try reinstalling your SDK and setting up ADB again? You said you already tried to re-root and that didnt fix the issue. Maybe someone with more knowledge of ADB could provide more assistance...
I managed to get it working. I noticed when I had my screen set to not turn off i received a message to all access and I granted SU now it works fine.
Hey Guys,
Would it be possible to give Samsung's stock app "My Files" root access through su or perhaps modifying the code? I purchased root explorer but to be completely honest like the feel of the original app.
No.
Ability to access root must be built into the application. There are only a few that have it. Root Explorer is by far the most popular and most used.
Isn't android based on linux, and don't applications run like programs? So in theory couldn't you use a sudo or su like command that would give the program full rights?
I know it's got to be possible given the environment that it's running in and I feel like it would be relatively rudimentary.
With root access you can use android terminal emulator and the su command to get root access. Or you can use Android Debug Bridge (adb) from a Windows, Mac or linux computer. Since you are new to android, perhaps you should do some searching and reading so you can gain some general knowledge. In the guides linked in my signature you can find some directions for using adb and terminal emulator.
But still, installed applications will only function the way they are programed, and MyFiles does not have root access.
Thanks for your help, i'll look into adb. Inevitably I want to start developing on the kernel level but thought this would be a good place to start.
Have you tried ES File Explorer? It is free and has root access (must be enabled within app settings).
I also was not a fan of Root Explorer.
Alright, you need to be able to have the drivers setup and everything correctly because I'm not offering support on this. Sorry but I have alot of stuff to maintain so I can't always help. I'll try but I would prefer the community support each other too. (you also need tgps launcher already installed so if you havent rooted, I dont think you will be able to do this.)
Anyway: you need to get the .apk file you want to install and just put it into the directory and name it A.apk b.apk c.apk d.apk and so on. I will have it install up to 26 apps (all the way up to z) then you can remove and start over.

I will probably update it eventually but right now it's supposed to be very basic.
Manual instructions:
All you need to do is use adb install appname.apk

Basically, for those a little familar with ADB, they didn't block adb install, so you should be able to adb install path\to\app.apk and it will load without an issue. If your not familiar with adb, using xIndirect's method is probably for the best for you.
so the android central sideload wonder machine should work.
In addition, they did not actually close the hole, they just covered it up better. If you sideload anycut, in theory, you can allow any other install. I am going to try it, and let you all know how it goes.

They would have to maintain two versions of their software if they blocked adb install. How are they going to test the apps going into their market.

Someone try this. You need the apk file of the app you want to install on your cimputer.

Hey all, I cannot get his to work because I no longer have usb debugging. I should say I am on a Nook Color not tab. I just thought it would be nice to try non-rooted for a while. I guess I will just re root.

I have AnyCut installed and created a shortcut to app settings. I reset the "Install from unknown sources" to be checked and then tried installing an app from the Amazon Market. When the package manager ran I got the new will not install dialog. Dang! So I launched the app settings again and noticed that the unknown sources box was unchecked. I checked it again, closed, and relaunched the settings window. The option is unchecked again. Grr....
Installing apps from the Android Market works just fine though, as it does not require the package installer to install an app.
Am I understanding this correctly? So even with un-rooted NT that has updated to 1.41 we can use this method to sideload? I so hope I am understanding this correctly. If so thank you so very much!!!!! If not thanks anyway for helping me learn!!!!!
I have been unable to clear and reset my drivers for the NOOK Tablet.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled but I must not have the right drivers.\
I'm running Win 7 64bit.
Any link would be appreciated.

BUMP, as I was wondering this myself.
I understand how to use adb, but how do I get the Nook Tablet with 1.4.1 in debugging mode? I can't install the tgps launcher apk because it says it is not a Nook Store app. My Nook was previously 1.4.0 and rooted with android market and lots of apps installed. I have no problem with the new side loading method, but I need to figure out how to re-enter USB debugging mode.
Ugh, my Nook just updated to the dreaded 1.4.1 version. I tried the script from XDA and ran it with the command prompt, but it says "error no decide found", even though my Nook Tablet is plugged into my Windows XP Machine. Any ideas why this is happening?
I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
Also, I got the script from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1407023 . I run the Sideload.bat file which usually doesn't run until an Android device has been found, and in MS Dos it says: C:\Sideload>adb wait-for-device . And yet when if I were to install an apk residing in the Sideload folder via Command Prompt, it says no device found.

Scrap that. I thought I had to re-download the apk file. I realized that it is installed as a device app. Once I entered debugging mode I was able to sideload apps onto 1.4.1 using the instructions.
Now I would love to get Android Market working again...

Is there something available for Mac users? I don't have access to any Windows system for over a week.
Also, I was wondering if anyone out there has had success access the Android Market after using this new script? Hopefully some of the root teams/specialists out there can find use a better answer that going by to sideloading.

Ok, so how DID you get it into debugging mode?

If you rooted 1.4.0, you would have used tgps launcher downloaded over the air. Once you run (install) the tgps launcher, it remains in your android apps installed on the Nook tablet after the 1.4.1 is installed by B&N. Just unplug your USB cable, run tgps launcher, go into te development settings, enable two debugging options, disable auto mount. Then when you plug in USB it should pop up a notification that you are in debugging mode.
Do "adb devices" from a command prompt. If your device is found, you can adb install apps.
so this won't work for unrooted? got my mom this for xmas, we had 1.4.0 and started sideloading apps...then outta nowhere today, the OTA came through and now i can't do anything. when i try this method, it tells me device not found. it doesn't show up under adb devices, either.

Looks like your only option will be to manually downgrade to 1.4.0 and load all the apps you want. You can also prevent OTA update to 1.4.1. Search the forums for the instructions. That sucks.
Alternatively, wait and see if a 1.4.1 root comes out.

Thanks, this works great. I know there is a way to root and install google apps on 1.4.1 now, but I'm fine with this since I don't have to go through the process of losing and then restoring all the apps and books I have loaded.
Just like another person mentioned, all one has to do is have NT Hidden Settings or tgps_launcher installed prior to the upgrade to be able to enable USB debugging.
In reading carrett's root, unlock and install guide as well as thecubed's Project FreeGee thread, it's clear that adb needs to be installed on my phone. Unless it's hidden somewhere, I believe that I need to install it as well as install adb drivers on my laptop. As far as the phone goes, Google play has wifi apps, but I can't find a tethered app to install. In addition, after a couple hours of searching, I don't find adb software or drivers to install on my laptop.
I'd prefer to not brick my phone on 1st attempt, so I pose the following questions:
1) Am I completely confusing things or am I correct in thinking that I need to explicity install adb both on my phone and laptop
2) assuming that some sort of adb install must happen, where do I find the installation files?
I think that I've finally found the answers to my questions: install the ADT bundle which includes adb. I'm downloading and installing it as I write this.

dude link it?
Uh, ADB support is built into Android.
You need to have USB Debugging turned on for some stuff to work though. In Settings>Developer Options>(check USB debugging box).
Then ADB SHOULD be installed with the LG drivers (if not I think the FreeGee download has it built in).
And if it is not, you can always install the Android SDK (HERE).
I know it is in there.
(Sorry, my memory is fuzzy, I've had ADB on my laptop for a few years now... not sure where I got it)

That's the issue I had with it, but just today I got rid of my old one troubleshooting.... thinking I messed it up ( which is why I had to find another)
