Environment: running adb in command window on Windows XP PC running adbKonnect on Nook Simple Touch (rooted; running Android 2.1)
When I type
adb shell ls \sys I get a list of the folders there.
When I type
adb shell ls \sys\module I get an error that there is no such file or directory, even though it is listed in the first step. What's going on?
Try adb shell ls -l /sys and check the output. Most likely, access to the /sys/module directory has limited access.
It doesn't matter that your device is rooted, when you're not using your root powers. To view the contents of "restircted directories":
# open a shell adb shell # obtain root permission su - # now access your target ls -l /sys/module When issuing the su -, you will have to approve a popup to confirm superuser access − at least on the first try. You then can tell your superuser/superSU app to remember your choice.
