i have an e4gt screen cracked and i need to get internal sd card data. i have done several searches and have come across ADB pull but not clear on how to perform this. i am rooted w stock 4.1 using whatever recovery came with the stock+rooted ROM. (SPH-D710_GB27_1014481_Rooted_Nodata.tar.md5 from Rwilco12's Android Repository). If I could just remember the exact steps to mount usb from recovery i would be good lol... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Ive the same problem if someone would help.

No need. Just power up your device and connect to your pc. It will connect using mtp and allow you to access your files that way (as long as you hadn't deactivated it prior to cracking your screen.)

i have done that and i get a box that says "there was a problem installing this MTP device." then another box says MTP was not installed correctly. Well i do have the Samsung drivers installed. Even installed a fresh copy direct from samsung support. Maybe something to do with my screen being locked with pin? Just got the Galaxy4 cant wait to get my data back...lol
Okay, assuming you already have android SDK set up and working ( you get adb this way), flash a recovery. I would likely use the direct boot for simplicity.
http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.p...overy Kernels/GB/Noobnl Direct Boot/One-Click
That is for the one click version of the direct boot kernel/recovery. It is gingerbread based, but that shouldn't matter if it will boot the ROM later a due to kernel mismatch due to the broken screen lol.
Give it some time too verify you are in the recovery. Now the magic. Find where your adb is at, usually within android/platform_tools if memory serves. You can do a system search for adb and it should pop up. Move to that location. Make a note of the exact path to that location. Now open a command prompt (search for cmd.exe). You then need to switch to the location of your adb. It should be something like the "cd c:/path/to/adb" (no quotes) where you fill in the path you noted earlier. Once there, give this a go. Type "adb devices" (again no quotes) and if you get a string of numbers that means you have adb access!!! Then you can just type "adb pull /sdcard/" and that will drop the contents of your internal storage into the folder holding your adb files (kind of a mess but it is the easiest way to do it). If you would rather it be dropped in a location of your choosing, use this "adb pull /sdcard/ /path/to/desired/location/" and note there is a space between /sdcard/ and your path to desired location.
I am not expert at this, but let me know if you get stuck somewhere in this and I will try to help.

Hey guys,
Was trying to de-Carrier IQ my phone today when I made a serious rookie mistake. I renamed the following two files and rebooted, and now only get the "Samsung" logo at boot:
/system/lib/libiq_client.so -> libiq_client_old.so
/system/lib/libiq_service.so -> libiq_service_old.so
I also renamed the "/system/bin/iqmsd" daemon (to iqmsd_old), set "setprop service.iq.active 0", and "pm disabled" the various CIQ services but I don't think these changes are related (successfully rebooted afterwards).
My restore plan was to flash ACSRecovery5 using Odin (not previously loaded) and then mount the /system directory, renaming those libraries (.so's) back to their original names. While Odin reports success in flashing ACSRecovery ("ACSRecovery5-1.0.0.0-epic4g.tar.md5" under PDA), when I boot into recovery mode (VolDown-Camera-Pwr) the stock Samsung recovery menu still appears :-( Also tried experimenting with ADB--"adb devices" reports the phone as "offline" during normal boot (where it freezes at the Samsung logo) and doesn't even show the device in download or recovery modes.
PHONE DETAILS:
Samsung Epic 4G (Sprint)
Stock Eclair (DI18)
Rooted using z4root
Apps + Data backed up to SDCard via TitaniumBackup (not sure if this captured my SMSs and notes)
Trying to avoid a wipe/flash back to stock (trying to preserve SMSs and notes) but realize this might be the only option. Much thanks to all who help.
You didn't run a nandroid backup before this?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Sadly no, I didn't even have Clockwork Recovery / ACSRecovery loaded. Thanks for your response!
Have you tried using an adb shell to push those files back?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Hmm...I'm a bit new to adb, but when I try adb pull /system/lib/libiq_client_old.so it returns error: device offline. Same with other adb commands. Thanks again!

Sounds like USB debugging was off or a bad cable. Also try other usb ports.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Possible USB debugging was off, though I do remember turning it on at some point in the past. Not sure how far in the boot process it needs to go before it can respond to adb commands. Is there a way to get a console-type debug output as it boots?
Will try other cables once I get home. Thanks for your persistence
Fixed!
New cable didn't work, but was able to load CWM Recovery and mount /system via adb. Thanks again for your help
what about odin back to stock ec05?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
I bet you tried to use one of those detection/removal apps in the Market, rather than using k0nane's flashable mod for our device.
You honestly would've been better off just flashing a custom rom. If you were trying to stick with something as close to stock as possible, then there are custom options in the dev forum.
Glad you were able to get CWM going again and resurrect the phone.
Sorry if this is the wrong thread.
The run down. My phone is bootloader unlocked rooted etc. already flashed xenon rom and everything was great. (Just got the device today)
Ok so here's the trouble i'm in. I decided I wanted to try another rom so i boot into clockwork recovery wipe system,data cache etc. suddenly all my files dont exist.
I have no back up file (my stupidity). I can still get into fastboot, clockwork etc, but it does not recognize a sd card on the device.
i tried loading up Samnsung Toolkit v7.8.0 and all i see in the top menu is
fastboot-toolkit is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file
adb-toolkit is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file
this is what worries me. I plug the device in on my windows computer it recognizes something no sd card.. currently downloading factory images
BUT WHAT DO I DO?!!!! pls help and pls do not flame me etc. All I'm asking is simple help thanks

A. Do not use toolkit. Unless you know how to solve things manually
B. Google how to setup adb and fastboot.
C. "adb push NAME_OF_ROM.zip /sdcard/" while on custom recovery
D. Flash that ROM

There is no sdcard on the gNex. As long as data is mounted you should be good
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
1st of all, Gnex doesn't have SDcard, therefore, you can't mount it. You can only use adb to push and pull files on recovery
2nd, are you sure you got proper driver? Do you actually have the ROM.zip on the same directory as adb.exe? If not, you need to do that. Also, if /sdcard/ doesn't work, /storage/sdcard0/ should work. It's a same directory. Just in different name for some reason.

So I screwed up, wasn't paying attention and wiped everything including the internal sd card. Now I'm stuck in recovery with no rom to flash. I tried mounting usb storage in recovery but nothing happens. My computer dings when I plug the phone in but it doesn't show up, then I press mount and nothing happens. Any ideas?

Post one for ADB.
Post three for pushing a ROM.zip to your phone.
You can use ADB to push a ROM .zip to the internal storage while in the recovery.
Ok awesome, thanks guys. For a minute I was thinking I might be screwed since I couldn't mount.

ADB and fastboot can usually save your ass.
Ok, downloaded latest drivers, reinstalled ADB using the ADB for dummies app. copied rom to platform tools, held shift and right clicked inside the platform tools folder, clicked "open command window here".
In the command window I have after trying to push looks like this:
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb push milestone4.zip /sdcard/
error: device not found
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>
Any idea how to get my device to be found?

You have your phone connected and booted into recovery? Then you need to install the adb driver. Use the naked driver mentioned in the 101 & faq (link is in my signature).

Open the device manager before plugging in your phone. Plug in your phone watch for newly listed devices. You should see your phone be added to the list.

Alright so I was an idiot and wiped data and internal storage...I figured I could just mount the phone like I could my Thunderbolt, but apparently not. I have adb installed and currently been going to platform-tools folder and opening command window...type adb devices and it shows my device in recovery...which is good. However as soon as I try to do "adb push C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\baldwinguy77_toro_aosp_011913-120824-signed.zip" and it doesn't do anything and just scrolls through all the available commands you can do...I have tried multiple variations of that and nothing seems to work. Help me please, as I need my phone working and I have been trying to figure this out for about an hour now.

I was trying to reflash JB 4.3 because of storage issues but unfortunately I accidentally deleted and formatted internal and sd storage, so Im left with no OS on my Gnex but I can boot on recovery and fastboot. Also before I deleted the internal I did not enable usb debugging yet at that time. Is there a way I can flash a stock image by just using toolkit? ty
I tried pushing through fastboot mode but it says error: device not found. I only have the platform tools on my pc.
UPDATE:
Finally got the file pushed into the sd card doing via recovery. Since I am using TWRP recevery it was not too obvious how to do it unlike CWRM which I used to use. I spent more than 24 hours looking for the right solution that would work for me and funny thing was I finally got the right way to one of the first threads i looked into but just didnt pay much attention to it which was here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667929
"Boot your phone into Recovery and select the "Mounts & Storage" screen
- Plug your phone into your computer using USB Data Transfer Cable
- Ensure in Recovery that your phone shows "Unmount /sdcard/" and "Unmount /system/" (If they do not show this automatically, just press each one once respectively as pressing just toggles Mount and Unmount)
- Open Command Prompt on your computer by doing Start -> Run -> cmd
- In Command Prompt, type "cd c:\AndroidSDK\tools" replacing AndroidSDK\tools with wherever your adb and ROM are located.
- This is probably the most important part - Still in Command Prompt, type "adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip" replacing ROM with the EXACT name of the ROM file and including the .zip piece on both ends. This may take a minute or two...or four, but you will see a message in Command Prompt saying something like <12345678kb to 1234567kb>. That is just telling you that the file was pushed properly. (I did not include that message in the picture below)"

Go into your device manager if you have windows, and see if you have any errors.
If you do, you might have an exclamation mark for the device: Galaxy. You can manually install the drivers from here, point it to your toolkit, I guess, since you downloaded it already.
If he reads efrant's "android 101" -which is STICKIED ON GENERAL forum- just the first post, he'll know everything and downloaded everything he needs to know and have to interact with his device.

I have read that already however I was hoping to just flash a file to the sdcard if is even possible considering I have formatted both internal and sdcard. I am very new to adb so its an easier way for me. But it seems then I will ave to do it the hard way. Thanks
PS
Not sure if this has any bearing but when I accidentally formated internal and sdcard it was a fresh 4.3 install and so android debugging was not enabled. Thanks

Doesn't matter because if you reboot in bootloader you can use fastboot(if drivers are installed properly), fastboot always works, you don't need to enable anything for it.

no, there's no ADB interface on FASTBOOT interface. You'll never be able to push anything through ADB in FASTBOOT interface. Please read the thread i talked about earlier, and this one too -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895 - Just the first post of each will do.
