Was reading and studying the (fantastic) tips/tricks and getting started threads written by milominderbender (hope I got this screen name correct). In any case, thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to provide all of the excellent write ups. Helps an Android new-bie like me get over the initial speed bumps in getting familiar with Android. Many kudos, sir.
My question revolves around the console adb pull command and backing up my installed apps as the/your example/tutorial describes.
I downloaded the sdk as described.... after a little tinkering, got the adb driver to recognize my phone (or vice-versa)... bottom line, phone was recognized with no driver errors reported by windows.
Turns out that the adb.exe command now resides in a folder named "platform-tools" rather than tools, but, got all of that figured out and defaulted to the appropriate directory in the command shell to be able to run the command.
Tried to run c:/.../adb pull /.../ \output_dir etc., etc....
I received a 0 files pulled message or something of the sort, and am kind of at a wall.
What else do I need to try/do, to get this working? Again, total newbie to Android, but otherwise fairly computer/IT saavy.
Particuars:
Phone: MyTouch 4G, USB debugging "on"
OS: Win7x64 Pro, AMD quad-core 64
Latest SDK downlaoded from Google yesterday:Android SDK Updater Rev 8.
hellllllllp (pleeeeez) LOL
