hi.
so we now have android in windows phone.there's a tutorial on how to copy files from that android and to that android os but i think you're phone needs to be unlocked (interop).and if you're phone is locked you can do it (i've been away from these kind of things for a long time.correct me if i'm wrong)
i used adb before and knew there was some kind of command to check the folders and files in the phone.so i took my chances and i tried them.
here is the code:
1-
Code:
adb shell
2-result will be something like
Code:
/system/bin/sh: No controlling tty: open /dev/tty: No such file or directory
/system/bin/sh: warning: won't have full job control
[email protected]:/ $
3-type this
Code:
ls
it will gives you a list of all folders in the phone (in android os in windows phone in this case)
4-the main folder is "mnt" so type this code
Code:
cd mnt
5- you can still type
Code:
ls
but it'll take a lot of times to find folders so i'll just give it to you guys.these are the command you need to enter and press enter.(each line must be typed separately)
Code:
cd shell
Code:
cd emulated
Code:
cd 0
6-in here is you type
Code:
ls
you can see that you have Pictured,Music and things like this.so if you want to create a folder in your android just type
Code:
mkdir YourFolder
7-after you created your folder enter
Code:
exit
to exit the shell and now you can "push" and "pull" commands.here's how push command work
Code:
adb push Path\To\Your\File.txt mnt\shell\emulated\0\YourFolder
i like to put my files that i want to push in the same folder that i have adb.exe so i just need to type the file name and extension.
8-after that you can install an android file manager to manage your files.

i haven't tested "pull" command but it'll work.i just need to test it.

so sorry if you guys knew this method , i just wanted to share it with you.
this method is really good for phone like 920 and for apps and games that has .obb data files (like Fallout Shelter :D )
