h1. ADB h2. Installing ADB Instructions to [[ToolsInstallation#ADB|install ADB]]. h2. Authorizing the device In order to allow your host computer to access ADB on the device, it must be allowed on the device. A window should pop up when connecting USB, asking whether to allow USB debugging. *Note: when booting with USB plugged in, the window doesn't pop up and you have to disconnect and reconnect the USB cable to see it happen.* h2. Accessing root shell Once allowed, you can access the device shell using: <pre> adb shell </pre> The shell is running as an unprivileged user. To gain root access, use: <pre> adb root </pre> The following shells will then be run as root. h2. Modifying the system partition Replicant is installed on the system partition. By default, this partition is mounted as read-only and can't be modified. You can mount the partition as writable filesystem using: <pre> adb remount </pre> Files under @/system/@ can now be edited.
