Solution

  • You are receiving the error above for a couple of different reasons.

    1. You are spelling the directories incorrectly
    2. ADB pull is used for pulling specific file names.

    Assuming adb can actually access the devices while its stuck in a boot loop (you could test this by running 'adb devices' and see if you receive a response.

    What you need to do is run the following command to list all the files in your "downloads folder"

    adb shell ls -r /sdcard/download

    Every file in your downloads folder will be listed. You can then do the following the pull the files

    adb pull /sdcard/download/filename.mp3
