(from ogra's http://paste.ubuntu.com/10501535/) * get the IP of the device with ifconfig * android-gadget-service enable ssh * use phablet-shell once so your ssh key gets copied in place * log out from phablet-shell or adb * scp the android-tools-adbd package in place * ssh phablet@ * sudo mount -o remount,rw / * sudo dpkg -i /path/to/adbd.deb * sudo mount -o remount,ro / * sudo reboot now check that: * adb root is a nop-op * adb shell only works with screen unlocked (adb on the PC should print "error: closed" * adb push and pull only work with unlocked screen * adb reboot and adb reboot-recovery work in any case (locked and unlocked screen)
