Root adb push?

[gmenfan83]

i am just getting in to ADB and the question i have is if i push a file to my x using adb does it automatically install and apply or do i push the file then install through clockwork?

If you're pushing a system app, you need to

adb remount
adb push blahblah.apk
adb reboot

Upon reboot your app should be installed, usually nothing else needs done.

thank you for your resonse .....now i saw in another forum a command for adb install rather than adb push ....will this do the same?...thank you for your response and patience as i am trying to learn ...i have searched and found no definitive answers or descriptions on this topic

adb install only works if the apk is signed and installable in the first place.

A lot of the time you need to actually push an app to /system, where it doesn't matter if it is signed or not.

Pretty much everything you could ask has already been answered. Not being snarky, but the forum search usually gives pretty good results
