adb pull -> device not found


I have a rooted phone and running adb in root mode.

I used adb shell to successfully access the phone.

I can browse directorys, even those who require root.

When i try to use:

adb pull /data/data/my.app.path/databases/mydatabase.db /home/admin/Desktop/

I get the following error:

error: device not found

The adb shell stays connected and i can go on browsing the sdcard.

Can anyone tell me where this error comes from and how i can fix it to pull the file?


Solution

  • Stay out of shell during adb pull.
