hey guys i've recently bricked my tablet with chainfire 3d and ive been trying to remove it with adb.
I went to google dev. downloaded android-sdk-windows. Ran sdk manager and installed adb tools+android 4.2.2 api. After that I went to cmd, went to C: - android-sdk-windows - platform-tools - adb. Worked fine. I typed adb devices and saw that my tab is in recovery with the command 'adb devices'. I needed adb shell, but I got the error above.

I tryed:
adb usb
adb kill-server followed by adb start-server
reboot tablet.
Any advise? I really, really dont want to change the rom, due the fact that my tablet doesnt have a stock rom downloadable.
 
Adb shell is intended to only access a fully available system and that's not usually available from recovery.

Do you have stock or a custom recovery?
 
do you know any other persons that may know what should i do? after all im trying to remove chainfire
 
Best bet is to tell what the tablet model is, any helpful details, and possibly how you put on what you did.

Hopefully we'll have someone who's been there or knows how to advise further.
 
tableta model: r80bt
android 4.2.2
