adb pull /data/media/0/ c:\backup

worked fine for me... was kind of clueless as I could not get anything to work.... I just had to mount data in recovery. That did the trick. Thanks so much guys.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3ft:
I'm having the same problem as others. I followed the instructions to the letter - unlocked and flashed CWM via fastboot without rebooting in between - but CWM can't mount the /data partition. Any adb pull attempts come back with "0 files pulled. 0 files skipped"
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waqar747:
Having exactly the same problem. Anybody has any clue how to get data?

---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:55 PM ----------

BTW, the phone now goes in a bootloop with the colliding balls animation. Has been so for the past 5 mins now. It was booting fine to stock 4.4.3 before the unlock and the recovery install.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fredcorp6:
Finally worked out how to do this after lot of trial and error...

First you need to mount /data, you do this from adb shell:

"adb shell"

"mount /data"

"exit"

Now you can pull all the data from sdcard:

"adb pull /data/media/0"

Then it should do it.

After its finished be sure to unmount /data:

"adb shell"

"umount /data"

That's it :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmcn99:
I tried this with a nexus 4 that had just been upgraded to 4.4. Unfortunately as soon as the device was unlocked there was a quick message that said something to the effect of "Data being wiped" which then went away. I continued on with the instruction until I could do the adb pull but found that the directory was empty unfortunately. Is this new behavior for 4.4 or did I screw up somehow?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exhaust2000:
No ADB Devices detected

1. I plugged in Nexus 4 with stock OS via USB.

2. Windows drive storage popped up but I cannot access it since password protected.

3. I type ADB devices but nothing listed. Same results when typing Fastboot devices.

4. Installed WugFresh Toolkit all I got was initializing ADB Daemon on system tray.

5. Why can't it detect connection via ADB?

Help please, I need to retrieve important files on this phone with broken touch screen :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exhaust2000:
ADB & Fastboot drivers

Btw, I went through uninstalling WugFresh's NRT tool just for the heck of it and got prompt whether to keep ADB & Fastboot drivers. I opted to keep it so this confirms I do have those drivers installed.

Let me know what to try next thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exhaust2000:
Final call for HELP!

To test ADB drivers are installed correctly on my Win7 pc, I plugged in another phone (Galaxy S3). ADB devices detected it successfully.

I'm assuming Nexus 4 is completely busted even its USB connection when it did a screen faceplant when I dropped it. Before I give up trying to recover photos from Nexus 4, any final attempts I can try?

I'll just smash the phone to protect data if there's no more hope in data recovery. Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheChileanDude:
Error mounting /data!

Hey guys, thanks for all the info.

I do however have a question, whenever I try to "mount /data" i get Error mounting /data!

I've followed all the steps up until there. Not sure what this means; is it that my phone is screwed?

thanks in advance, you guys are great help.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hjicons:
Yesterday I had similar issue with my son's phone. Screen was broken and only buttons were functioning. USB debugging was on however it had Marshmallow ROM installed and file transfer mode couldn't be enabled because of non responsive screen. "adb devices" didn't return anything. The solution was to power down (press and hold Power and quickly release otherwise it was just rebooting). With power off press Volume Down and Power buttons at the same time. Phone boot with "Start Bootloader" message. Scroll down to "Reboot Recovery" with volume down button and then press power button. After booting into recovery connect to PC and try "adb devices" again in command window. Now it'll show recovery device. After that "adb pull /data/media" worked and it dumped the whole internal storage with all subdirectories to directory called 0.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manojkumar.n88:
Hello, I was able to follow all the steps to recover data from a broken screen Nexus 4 mentioned in this thread. But somehow the adb pull/data/media and other similar tries did not work. When I enter the adb pull command the command prompt displays a dictionary of commands like for ex. adb root, adb unroot etc. I am doing anything like this for the first time, so it would be of great help if i can get some help.

Thanks

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] DEFNUB:
That's unless u flash a radio but I haven't tried that option

---------- Post added at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 AM ----------

There's a thread with all radios somewhere on here check it out
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
You mean set s-off?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Are you doing a clean install

Wiping cache/dalvik cache/system/data (from the Wipe/Advance Wipe tab) or using the Superwipe zip?

Sounds to me like you are doing a dirty flash or a bad downlod
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] DEFNUB:
My bad forgot u have to be s-off to flash a radio (I think). Also a lot of the ROMs require s-off
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
I did that but i haven't tried the superwipe.Now i find two problems.First,Every time after i wiped those files,i enter the install option,there are still many zip files on the sdcard,second,i just brush the rom again without brush boot,The fact is no different at all,which means i haven't write boot to my phone,i don't know why.i did exactly what they said,use the fastboot flash boot order.to write boot in.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
but they said if your phone isn't s-off,you have to brush root manually,but it seems didn't work,i used the way people told me online,it didn't work.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
What do you mean brush?

You don't need to flash the boot.img separately on the HTC One just flash the rom zip

Once you get it booted use a file explorer to remove some of the older zips that may be part of the problem you are running low on storage
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] DEFNUB:
Do you mean this???

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Konfuzion:

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Just make sure you wipe everything I mentioned or use the superwipe then install the rom
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
I had tried it,didn't work,thanks though.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
OK,i'll do it and report later.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
I just tried superwipe on it,the problem still occur
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
You are flashing just the rom zip correct? No need to flash the boot.img also.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] DEFNUB:
I hate to say it but I think ruu might be your answer. If you can pull down status bar and click the settings button on right corner go down to phone settings and then go to about , software info, more tab. And see if your baseband says unknown
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
Yes,i did,although there are still bunch of zip files in my phone after i used superwipe.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
When you say viperrom it is the one from the Sprint forum and not the International forum correct?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
Actually i downloaded the viperrom here.but i also can't use another one,you think it is related?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Have you tried checking the MD5 to make sure it is a good download?

You can also go into twrp and choose Advance/File Manager/sdcard and delete some of the zips you are talking about leaving viperrom or 420rom there, then start the whole process again wiping with superwipe then flashing one of those rom zips
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
It's a brick now...i can only access the hboot and recovery.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mike0916:
i have 19131MB space on this phone so that would't be a problem,i guess,Can you be more specific about checking MD5?

[LG Optimus G (International)] midi_1996:
Hi everyone, :D

I've got this phone from my neighbor who asked me to fix it, the problem is that the phone boots up normally and works good until it enters standby mode! When we try to wake it up, nothing is shown on the screen, in fact, the screen is turned off, but the phone still respond to other buttons such as volume and the power button and the capacitive buttons.

So we tried to:

- reset it to factory setting

- install the latest update (it was downloaded on the phone but not installed)

- change the screen time out to "never"

- change the unlock option to None

- stop power saving mode and the other power management stuff (the CPU management)

Information about the phone:

Android: 4.1.2

Baseband: APQ8064/MDM9x15M

Kernel v: 3.4.0

Build n°: JZO54K

Software v: E97510c-208-10

This phone is from France (SFR) didn't rooted it/ flash a custom rom / unlocked it or whatever!

Please help me to find a solution! :crying:

I don't want to flash it to another rom since it's not mine and my friend wants it as it is. :/
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Unfortunatelly we can't help without root. You need root in order to install apps like cpu spy,betterbatterystats. If you don't want to root,then send it to warranty...no offense,but your request for help sounds like when you go to the doctor in pain,you want help,but you don't let the doctor touch you.

In order to have a proper diagnose and see what is causing that sleep.

You coukd try kdz updater to flash original firmware.

[LG Optimus G (International)] midi_1996:
Haha :D

Thanks anyway, it fixed itself :eek: in fact after the update I've done, smt went wrong and couldn't fetch for further updates, until the day after, I retried and a bunch of update just came out :laugh: and after (maybe 4 updates) the screen goes on, but another problem that I can't activate nfc, and the problem was before and even after all the update, I will tell him to root it and flash a custom rom, I will try to flash CM on it.

Thanks a lot for the help ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
After my phone started to get slow, i thought it was a good idea to flash a new rom on it. My first pic was the MIUI roms because those always worked well on my desire. After the rom was flashed i lost connection to my network and i saw that this was a issue that some other people have as well. I tried to do a nandroid restore but even then i still have no connection. I have no idea what to now, please if someone knows anything i would really appreciate it.

Here's how it all went:

1. Flashed MIUI

2. Lost connection

3. Flashed Cyanogen, i thought it was a ROM issue

4. Restored nandroid

5. Back to stock now

Now i'm back where i began, but still without connectivity. I see a few thread about the ESF files, but i'm missing a few files (did a full reset i MIUI).

What are my options now? Am i screwed?

Thanks.

The fact that you said *esf* is alone enough to infer you didn't read properly. Is your imei intact ? If not Check for efs backups or else service centre . :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I've flashed back to the point before i flashed, to the newest and to the earliest stock roms.

I downloaded the rom off of the official MIUI site and it said nothing about EFS. It's not untill i came back to XDA when i first heard about it. It's just a simple typo, i know what the files are.

My phone says i have the "standard" corrupt IMEI; 6400 something.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Download an EMG based official stock rom from sammobile, flash it with odin on your pc.

If that doesn't enable your imei to be read then you need a service centre.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I will try that now.

If i need to go to the service centre, what do i have to do? Flashing back to stock, unroot and what else? Is there anything i have to say to them about how this happened?

Thanks for the help!

How can I force my Ouya into Recovery? I have no ADB access.

I tried the sysrq key combination but it just locks the ouya up.
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexter84:
That is one of the main drawbacks of ouya - you just can't.

If you bricked it it stays bricked, at least to the moment when ouya releases sbk.

Even if they release firmware update with recovery you have no way of applying it so nvflash seems to be the only option for you.

Sorry about your ouya. You can of course try contacting support and ask for help, but as you said sysrq is not working so it might be difficult.
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nchantmnt:
i wonder if it is possible to connect your device as usb-storage-device.

maybe you are able to push the ota to your device and make it update on first boot. but i guess we're unable to push a file via mtp into /cache where the update.zip is supposed to be found

you don't have any possibility to get into settings e.g.?

i still refuse to believe that threre is simply no way of fixing it you it hangs on updater.

atm i'm at work for at least 6 hours from now on but as soon as i get home i will try to "softbrick" my ouya (keeping safe recovery as backup) and try to get to the point where you are. from there on it's trial and error for me ;)

i'll tell you if i find some way to get to recovery or fixing this problem without using sysrq
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HT123:
What do you mean it locks it up?

I have had it take a few tries to get it to work. I also had to hit the home key to get the menu to show up.

One way that seems to work often is powering up cold (after pulling the power) with the USB kb plugged in and hitting the alt sys-req I as the first ouya boot animation starts to come on the screen.

hello

there is no such thing as a backend on this mobile platform

most of this stuff is controlled by the registry

the only limitations known for this device are related to the evdo services on it, impact directly on internet sharing, sms sending

as far for 3G / H+ it should work but it will never activate LTE on standard UMTS Services

also please check for workaround regarding sms and the other "painpoints"

I read that a stable xbmc build for ouya was released. I'm curious as to what is need for a custom build? Is it to use the joystick? I don't think that's the case as I read something regarding hardware accel playback. But if that's the case why does the generic build of xbmc just work with other tablets/phones?
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 'Murica:
It is probably because the regular version isn't 100% compatible with the OUYA

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ultimate Chicken:
Actually XBMC isn't universal, because different manufacturers have different ideas on how to deal with drivers at the abstraction level. Search around a bit, the Ouya isn't the only device requiring a custom build.
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sark666:
duh really?? No kidding??

I assume obviously there is an incompatibility but at least the other post was a little more insightful regarding the abstraction layer.

But xbmc in the end will use two things: opengl, and hardware accelerated video playback. So why would that need a custom build? If the android OS is designed properly this should all be done through an abstraction layer and not have to be coded to be hardware specific.

I guess somewhat related, when I first got my nexus 7 and heard about tegra optimized games. They are boasting that but I didn't actually like to hear that. I read that some other tablets that may actually have a better video chipset, could perform worse with these tegra optimized games. Even though nvidia and ati try and make similar claims, if the game is d3d compliant it will run fine on either. That's how it should be with android, so I shouldn't need an ouya optimized build. But this is my layman's understanding so maybe there's something else I'm not seeing.
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ultimate Chicken:
The Ouya's lucky tho, my Galaxy S2 still doesn't have a build with hardware acceleration that isn't a beta, so anything but basic XVID AVIs play like molasses. =.=' (Samsung's own video player works better...)

Android's compatibility throughout all devices isn't guaranteed at any level below the abstraction layer. Games don't really have this problem because everything graphic intensive must be done in OpenGLES, which is at least backwards compatible - and unlike Windows you don't have DirectX vying for compatibility with it.*

Video processing is a different beast altogether, because unfortunately OpenGLES isn't a compression/decompression/streaming library. Google by the way doesn't actually promise HD video decompression from the very beginning, just the standard cellphone codecs. Not even VP8, the codec they back. Non HD MP4 is the only decent codec that's guaranteed.

Apple doesn't have this compatibility problem because it is its own manufacturer and nobody else manufactures devices that runs iOS. Android and Windows, not so. <_<'

* And even then remember that some graphics cards support only up to a certain version of DirectX OR OpenGL. Anything greater and the game either won't run, or WILL but won't let you see anything. The only reason why you don't see this in the DX9-10-11 transition was that game engines implemented fallback mechanisms. I still remember the transition between DX8.1 and DX9. <_<'
