if i'm testing on a galaxy tab, is it necessary to do this or can i just connect the tab as a mass storage device and transfer the apk that way? thanks!

awesome videos bru

[OhHeyItsLou]

@becauseibelieve You can't access /system/app directory when the device is in Mass Storage mode.

right now i'm stuck on "./adb devices" command not recognizing my HTC Glacier. I'm running Ubuntu 11.04

[OhHeyItsLou]

@wolfbloodchain Is your device in debugging mode?

Both of these videos may be a bit old an I don't know if you even check on them anymore but I gave it a big THUMBS UP! You couldn't have done a better job at explaining things step by step and for anyone new to Linux and Android this is a must watch. I pointed some friends this way and I'd love to see anything else you may have on building roms etc. I know this comment is long but had to get it all out there.

Worked with Samsung Facinate SCH-I500 on machine with Ziron OS5 Ultimate.

But not on my Dual-Boot Windows 7. Cannot gain root access to Filesystem files.Haven't found a work around yet.

Thank You for all your work!!!
