When I try to pull a file using adb pull <file>, it used to be automatically saved in C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.
Now, whenever I use the same command, it's saved in C:\Users\khibr\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot. I can't remember if I did anything to change the path, but I want to change it back. is There any way to do so?
you can always use the following syntax to change where you want the file to be stored after the pull command.
adb pull file.txt C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Another way to do this is to open the command prompt from the directory where you want to pull the files to.

Location of pictures:
/storage/sdcard0/pictures/screenshots/
I want to move all the screenshots to below folder in my PC
C:\Users\[username]\Downloads
I have ADB enabled and not rooted my phone.
Help me to use ADB pull.
Use the following command:
adb pull /storage/sdcard0/pictures/screenshots/ C:\Users\<username>\Downloads
You will find the folder named 'screenshots' at the location C:\Users\<username>\Downloads
I want to check a file in a sdcard but I have to use ADB.
I made this :
adb shell ls $EXTERNAL_STORAGE
It prompts me a list of directories but it's not my sdCard.
How can I find a file in my sdcard using adb ?
#paralleles. You can use the following adb command below to check if an external storage card exists:
adb shell echo /$EXTERNAL_STORAGE
If the above command executes successfully, you'll see a similar output as below :
Alternatively you can start an adb shell session and traverse the directory so as to find the desired file in your sdcard as follows :
adb shell
cd $EXTERNAL_STORAGE
If the above commands executes successfully, you'll see a similar output as below (depending on the files/folders in your SdCard):
For a program I am using ADB to transfer a file from the computer to mobile phone.
Using adb push overwrites every existent file and thus takes ages to finish.
adb sync does only push the file if it exists on the phone AND contains other data than the local version.
Is there any midway solution? I want the file to be transferred if it doesn't exist or is changed, but not, if it is the same as on the computer. Is there a way to achieve this?
The best way to do this is to first check if the file exists and if it does then sync it and if it does not then push.
Skeleton for a batch script to do this:
FILENAME_RESULT=$(adb shell ls / | tr -d '\015'|grep '^fileName$')
if [ -z "$FILENAME_RESULT" ];
then
REM adb push because the file was not found
else
REM adb sync because the file was found
fi
adb push --sync /local/file /sdcard/remote/file
From adb --help
adb push [--sync] [-zZ] LOCAL... REMOTE copy local files/directories to device --sync: only push files that are newer on the host than the device. -z: enable compression -Z: disable compression
There's a really easy way to do this with adb-sync (https://github.com/google/adb-sync).
adb-sync is a tool to synchronize files between a PC and an Android device using the ADB (Android Debug Bridge).
If there is a space in the directory in the adb pull operation, say
adb pull data/tombstones "c:/Program files/myApp"
is any other way to do it besides adding quotation mark on it "c://Program Files/myApp" to accomplish the same thing?
You can try using the short name of the folder. for program files it is progra~1.
you can see short name with dir /x.
I've never tried it with ADB, but I think it should work.
Is there a way to reload .gdbinit file.
Assume that you are already working in gdb, and you have made changes to .gdbinit, and want to reload the new .gdbinit without disturbing the present gdb environment.
Is this possible?
You can execute the commands in .gdbinit (or any other file) with the source command. E.g., "source .gdbinit" will execute the commands in the .gdbinit in your current directory. You will need to specify the path if you want to use another .gdbinit, such as "source ~/.gdbinit" for the one in your home directory.
This will only execute the commands currently in the file; it will not reset or undo the commands that were previously in the file. So it will update any definitions or settings the current commands make, but it will not erase or undo any old definitions or settings.
source ~/.gdbinit
