Adb/fastboot

Bill Idol · Aug 23, 2014

Hello, I just recently got my z1s C6916 and I'm trying to root via jcase method. Now in order to do the commands in adb doesn't my phone have to be in fastboot mode? If it does, how can I get into fastboot? I've tried holding down the volume down button while pressing the power button but no luck. My phone is easily recognized in adb and I have USB debugging on but after I run all the commands it just tells me that it cannot execute. So that is why I am wondering if I have to be in fastboot mode in order for the commands to work.

No,

It has to be turned on and connected to the PC

Type
adb devices

to check your PC is recognising the adb device

ok I did it without fastboot and ran all the commands but keep getting cannot execute for the last command

C:\Users\TEMP\Downloads\xperia root>adb devices
List of devices attached
CB5A1Z18JC device

C:\Users\TEMP\Downloads\xperia root>adb push pwn /data/local/tmp/pwn
5056 KB/s (574722 bytes in 0.111s)

C:\Users\TEMP\Downloads\xperia root>adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/pwn

C:\Users\TEMP\Downloads\xperia root>adb shell /data/local/tmp/pwn
/system/bin/sh: /data/local/tmp/pwn: can't execute: Is a directory

C:\Users\TEMP\Downloads\xperia root>

You may have to allow unkown sources.
Not sure as I have a Z1

yeah I have unknown sources allowed. I wonder if I have to turn off my fire wall to do this? Well thanks for your help brudda, really do appreciate it.

maybe your adressing was wrong or something like that! because it say you try to execute a directory! Do some search about this command. it maybe help you.
