QTadb is great.works nice on linux n windows too.
I have a problem though.
When I was on hybridv3 rom then QtADB was able to load apps but now I am on Hybrid v1.3.2 n QtADB is not loading my apps.I tried reflashing but no luck.
I went back to hybrid 3 n it worked again,even on stock it worked but now again it's not working as I am back to Hybrid v1.3.2...
Any idea???

Thanks for the review doc.

I think gautam might be able to tell quickly what he dropped in h1.3 that is in h3 & stock.

1 request doc: if you find qtadb good enough, then can you edit your first post the #1 & mention about it in the end of post.

I think the problem can be a different busybox version.I will try to update busybox n see if it helps.
N regarding adding this to 1st post I think this is a ADB workout tutorial and QtADB has nothing to do with it.let me have suggestions from other members,if I get 3 suggestions(that include u sir) then I will update the 1st post.

mastermind1024 · December 18th, 2011, 04:41 AM

Figured it out.I has nothing to do with busybox(well QtADB requires busybox but problem has nothing to do with it)..problem was with Permissions to /data, /data/app, /data/app-private folders.it was rwxrwx--x. I changed it to rwxrwxr-x so now apps being listed.but to allow QtADB to uninstall an app permission should be rwxrwxrwx.
Which rom are u on Aditya sir?N if QtADB is working for u then can u please confirm permissions of those folders?
Thanks.

Thanks.

doc I'm on h3 .

apps are listed in qtadb .

and the data has the permission rwxrwx--x

but data/app & data/app-private have the permissions
rwxrwxrwx

thank you for the consideration to the #1 post.

I hope some request might trickle in.

fkid93 · January 25th, 2012, 01:25 PM

i did made the file but no use..

could some one tell me how to make the file??

using notepad or what??

please help

could someone please give link of any video tutorial or send me the adb_usb.ini file on my mail

fkid93@gmail.com

mastermind1024 · January 27th, 2012, 07:39 AM

Yes,u have to make the file using notepad.
Make sure u have installed java first,then drivers,then android sdk, n after that adb_usb.ini file.
0x1d91 is for Micromax A70 only.
Reply with steps u took n any error u get.
n there is no video tutorial for this,I m not good at making video tutorial.

Sorry we can't digitally sign a driver.Microsoft do that on request of manufacturer(mmx here) n mmx can't afford to get driver digitally signed...it's expensive.

I have followings installed in my windows7 desktop.
1: Java(TM) 6 Update 29
2: Java(TM) 7 Update 3
3: Java(TM) SE Development Kit 7 Update 3
4: JavaFX 2.0.3
5: JavaFX 2.0.3 ADK
AND

android-sdk tools rev 16 platform-tools rev 10

AND

MICROMAX USB DRIVERS Which automatically installed on connecting my device. Now

I have C:\android-sdk\platform-tools and C:\User\Username\.android and in .android folder no such file adb_usb.ini is there. I created a new file using text dacument with the name of adb_usb.ini and in this file I wrote adb_usb.ini hit enter then wrote 0x1d91 save this and exit. Now when I connect my device with cmd window it shows deamon started successfully with some port no. but not show my device attached (only list of devices attached message showing ) BUT in fastboot-windows mode it shows my device serial no. Can u pl. guide me at what point I am going wrong ? Thanks.

mastermind1024 · March 1st, 2012, 01:14 PM

@surjeet s
In adb_usb.ini file delete the 1st line adb_usb.ini...
1st line should be 0x1d91
save the file,exit..
then apply following commands at cmd promt.

Code:

adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices

Now ur device should be shown..

Applied your advice but still not able to detect my device under adb. The same message ( the list of devices attached ) showing. My system is Windows7 32 bits. Also pl.tell that .android folder must be kept in C:\Users\Username or it should be moved to C:\android-sdk\platform-tools.
When I type adb get-serialno it showed unknown.

mastermind1024 · March 4th, 2012, 02:01 AM

Its is C:\Users\YourUsername\.android
n folder will be there if u have started sdk manager before.u need to create file only.
I am using Windows 7 32 bit, Win7 64 bit n Linux Ubuntu 64 bit..
On all plateforms this tutorial tested and works for sure.
I think drivers are doing problem,not sure.
Tell me what u see in Device Manager when u connect phone??
N is USB Debugging is enabled in phone??it's must so 1st check that.

I am seeing in device manager:
my pc name/ADB Interface/Micromax A70 ADB Interface and in properties there I see driver provider : Micromax ; driver date : 11/12/2010 ; driver version : 1.0.0.0 ; driver signer : not digitally signed . USB debug is ON while connecting to ADB. In .android folder there are 3 entries by default like avd ; androidwin.cfg and repositories.cfg . 4th entry I made after reading your tutorial that is adb_usb.ini with the help of text dacument option. In this file I wrote 0x1d91 then save it and exit.
For your convinience I want to make it clear that I have anti-virus ON and USER ACOUNT CONTROL also ON ( I mean not disable ).

Okay, download this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/39210842/adb_usb.ini

and paste in the .android folder.
Check and tell.

(If it opens in browser, right click on link and then click on "save link as" and save in .android folder)

mastermind1024 · March 4th, 2012, 01:08 PM

Delete your existing adb_usb.ini file n replace with following.
adb_usb.ini
N tell me what u get.

EDIT:
@akshay- lol,i also doubted that n posted link for that.We were both posting around same time...

varun.chitre15 · March 4th, 2012, 08:14 PM

@surjeet

surjeet s · March 4th, 2012, 10:17 PM

@akshaybz and @mastermind1024 :
Many Many thanks to both of you as now I can see my device serial no. in adb cmd. I will check it later in the evening where I was wrong in making that file but again many many thanks.

@varun.chitre15:
Varun my system is win7 32 bits. My problem has solved now but I also thankful to you as you also respond to my request.

mastermind1024 · March 5th, 2012, 12:01 PM

Which link of xda???
i didn't find this method on xda.nowhere else u will find such method cause I searched a lot then came up with this method.i do inspired by another method but it was also not from xda for sure...but don't remember that source.all know abt creating rules but simply rules don't work for our A70.the key point is adb_usb.ini file...
I was using this method way before I posted here...
So sorry to say but there is no xda link.
N never used mac so can't guide u there..but after connecting device try lsusb like command for mac n see if it shows a device without any description...if yes then it will need rules thats what i think but can't say for sure as not a mac user...will try to find for u..

.android should already be created by SDK Manager...
Btw, I saw stuff for mac on xda...
Don't remember the actual thread but try searching

For mac i figured it out !
now its working

I asked the question for Windows this time

EDIT : Done

It did not work as while creating a virtual machine, Parallels created a user as "Ninad.Ninad-pc"
that "." is the problem !
you cannot have a dot or space in username ! lol hence all things over windows were unstable

I think, mastermind must add this

Btw i am feeling like a fool

All my developed stuff never worked ! I got frustrated and now i realize it was the Parallels fault

ninadchaudhari · March 13th, 2012, 02:33 AM

BTW
@mastermind !
For mac i got it working

when i saw ur post ,
I felt one thing in common the adb_usb.ini folder !

I just entered the folder name in Spotlight and it found the folder !!
after watchhing in Finder, added the vendor number !
and it started working !

Windows don't allow to have a "." in file/folder name...
.android folder will be there already when u install sdk.
N like I said key point is adb_usb.ini file.!!!

was trying to install adb on ubuntu 12... text given by u for 99-android.rules didnt work for me,
so i referred other tutorial and filled it with following ...

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1d91:0009", SYMLINK+="android_adb", MODE="0666" GROUP="plugdev"
TEST=="/var/run/ConsoleKit/database", \
RUN+="udev-acl --action=$env{action} --device=$env{DEVNAME}"

and it worked for me....

Well its obvious because whatever written in OP is for Ubuntu 11 or previous.
12 comes out just a month back so u need newer android rules.
Btw thanks for the update, i will add that to OP.

EDIT:
I have added udev rule for 'fastboot' too.As u r on ubuntu 12 can u just test it?

yes tht worked...
i checked with d command "fastboot devices" ...
btw is it of any use for a70 except for installing recoveries ?

D3odex3DAyusH · Yesterday, 01:48 AM

Recently one of my friend asked for help about adb setup.....
I succeed in setting it up on his PC, but noticed one thing that adb doesn't recognize phone in recovery mode! Drivers are latest, sdk is updated too and everything is fine except this.......
Does any hv similar problem?? It just says device not found no matter however times you kill and recreate server!!

It may be a problem with drivers, or with the cwm recovery, not supporting such functionality??
