I am by far means no expert in this. Some of the more common commands in adb are push, pull, shell, install, remount, and logcat.

Push sends a file from your desktop computer to your Android device: adb push test.txt /sdcard/test.txt

Pull pulls a file from your Android device to your desktop computer: adb pull /sdcard/test.txt test.txt

Shell lets you run an interactive shell (command prompt) on the Android device: adb shell

Install lets you install an android APK file to your Android device: adb install myapp.apk

Remount remounts the /system partition as writable (or readonly if it is already writeable): adb remount

Logcat lets you view the devices debug logs in real time (must press control+c to exit): adb logcat

I've found connect can be used for a wireless lan connection on my M001 since adb won't see it on the usb connection like it does with my PDN.syntax: adb connect :5555 (with being the local ip of the M001)example: adb connect 192.168.0.87:5555

Lol.adb devices ---a good starter command. Starts up the ADB daemon and lets you know that there is a device attached.

So I can adb into any adroind device that has its wireless on with that command? Say like in a coffee house full of droids? and pull their market ID, call log, contacts, browser history, etc. If true that is some scary sh#$%# right there! Gonna try some experiments...

[yankeespitfire]

Not to encourage it... but if you knew the ip device of the target device, possibly you could determine it by trial & error based on whatever ip addy the dhcp server assigned yours... and if the device has adb enabled... and if usb debugging is "on" on the target, you might be able to do a pull on the accounts.db... and if you got lucky and connected to a rooted device, you'd probably trigger a "allow access?" on the user's screen when you tried to su... (not that you'd do THAT ;) )Not sure the wireless connect works on all devices, it does work on the M001, doesn't seem to on the PDN though, I can only access PDN through the usb connection.
