Virus detected from avg??

I'm getting a AVG popup about a Trojan horse virus when extracting the newest download v4?? anyone else?
[Android Software Development] mihahn:
Doomlord said you should disable your antivirus program because it could detect a virus. But you can just go on, it's nothing to worry about ;)

Thank you
[Android Software Development] ahjee:
i know this is an old thread and am unsure if anyone uses this still but, i recently soft bricked my Motorola Droid Ultra so in the meantime i am using the Droid X2 and i believe i am properly following everything but i will not work at all...any insight? i've downloaded and extracted the files into a blank D drive, it runs and boots it into fastboot, supposedly installs a file, reboots and t hen nothingf
[Android Software Development] madefree:
I'd love to see that last line.... Yes I would.

OH by the way...... thanks to all xda devs..... all of them.

I totally noobed out....

Tried to install SDK.exe .... Error can't find tools\android.bat

Tried to update ADK It can't install certain 19 ?? file so it cant download updates??? WOE..... I check the 19 file with 2.3 and intel something and hit install and it tells me it can find 19 file to do an install. I unpacked it all in one place C:\

I went to "developer sdk site and NO ... Download "TOOLS" of any kind.

I can't locate the "TOOLS" file/ whatever to get the cmd prompt to find . . . ANDROID\android-sdk\plateform-tools.

Of course the pdf is cut off between the platefor

m-tools ...........so I don't really know what to type there or leave space.

Its my fault I can't seem to get a 3 click root in 30 or more clicks later still just trying to figure out the STEP by step pdf,

But mostly back step by back step so far.

I rooted my Alcatel Authority in 2 clicks.

I rooted my LG Regard in 3 clicks.

But my Bell Alrix is a "no liftoff" Huston... so far.

And I got to de-bloat or use it as a fishing sinker.

I have Linuxonandroid (by devs at xda,) ready to install Ubuntu (downloaded and ready) to ex-SD card but need ROOT first.

I'd say.... any ideas.... but after being a member for 8yrs.... I know better that that...LOL

Any help.

WOW!

Pretty lame that you guys are resorting to having installers that load 3rd party rogue software onto users systems in order to get the root app. And they do this even when you skip and decline. Nice go with the skip button being greyed out like it is supposed to be non clickable. I declined and skipped every choice I was given and it still installed optimizer pro onto my machine. PLEASE! I beg you guys don't become like the rest and use spam and scam tactics you will destroy your reputation and no one will trust you again. This goes far beyond an absent minded forgetfull nature of one individual or is that what you are all consumed with by all I mean those that have uploaded their files to the dubious. I wouldn't have bothered writing this if it was an isolated event. Deposit files website is a scammers delight for those that even when you automate refusals they rewrite the installers to have you agree by accident or by not asking at all for the 3rd party scamware to be installed. DON'T BE DUPED REPOST THIS ANYWHERE YOU FIND A LINK TO SITES LIKE THIS MAKE A STAND

How to Sync my Android to PC

Hi, I have been trying to connect my Android Phone Redmi2 to my Pc in Win XP (SP3) but failed. My Pc always request for some drivers which I could not find them anywhere, they are as follows,

1.	ADB Interface

2.	MTP

3.	Android

I managed to install ADB Interface I think, as I can see “Android Composite ADB Interface” in Device Manager. But I still failed to find driver for “Android” and “MTP”. I tried to search everywhere for solution but failed. I then come across this article about rooting and thought it would help me connect my mobile to my Pc. I am able to enable the “Usb Debugging” and also “Unknown Sources” on my mobile but still not able to sync my android to PC.

Please Help!

Thanks very much!

[MENTION=4828189]machv5[/MENTION], You are correct! Everything I have found so far that relates to rooting this phone has been nothing but scams and spyware.

Reporting it works on Galaxy S2 with stock firmware XXKI4 in the second try.

The first try failed with the same message as some other.

At the second try I also had to unplug the usb cable when the process arrives to the step where it disconnects (note that I am using a virtual machine for running windows on mac os x).

The second try took a quite long time (more than 10 minutes I guess).

But it worked !
