| | |
| The device must be connected to the Linux host with the USB cable all the time, unless told to reconnect.
| |
| | |
| ==Configure the host device==
| |
| | |
| Install Android tools.
| |
| | |
| On Ubuntu do:
| |
| | |
| sudo apt-get install android-tools* ubuntu-device-flash phablet-tools
| |
| | |
| | |
| Connect the device and type:
| |
| | |
| lsusb
| |
| | |
| an output like this will come out:
| |
| | |
| | |
| Bus 004 Device 010: ID 18d1:4ee1 Google Inc. Nexus 4 / 10
| |
| | |
| 18d1 is the vendor id, 4ee1 is the product id.
| |
| | |
| Numbers may change with other devices.
| |
| | |
| Create /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules with:
| |
| | |
| SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666"
| |
| SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4ee1", SYMLINK+="android_adb"
| |
| SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4ee1", SYMLINK+="android_fastboot"
| |
| | |
| | |
| replace vendor and product identifiers with yours.
| |
| | |
| Now Reload uev's rules to make these changes effective:
| |
| | |
| sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
| |
| | |
| | |
| Reconnect your device.
| |
| | |
| Type:
| |
| | |
| sudo adb devices
| |
| | |
| your device will be listed.
| |
| | |
| ## Unlock the device
| |
| | |
| Go to the bootloader:
| |
| | |
| * Power off the phone
| |
| * Keep volume down and power pressed together until the bootloader is shown (the bootloader has an android with the lid open like this: http://www.androidcentral.com/sites/androidcentral.com/files/postimages/684/android-az-bootloader.jpg)
| |
| | |
| From the Linux host type:
| |
| | |
| | |
| sudo fastboot oem unlock
| |
| | |
| | |
| Select "Yes" on the phone using volume keys, confirm pressing the power key once.
