There’s a lot of info in the threads. Here’s what I did so far.
According to https://community.e.foundation/t/tuto-installer-adb-et-fastboot-sur-votre-pc-avec-linux/54357:
On my pc:
- I downloaded latest version of SDK Platform-Tools for Linux (I’m running Ubuntu 24.04.2)
- I ran “mkdir ~/android-adb-fastboot” (where ~ is “/home/user/”)
- I ran “mv ~/Téléchargements/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip ~/android-adb-fastboot”
- I ran “unzip ~/android-adb-fastboot/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip -d ~/android-adb-fastboot”
- I plugged my phone to my PC using USB cable
On my phone:
- From Recovery 2-item menu, I pressed back arrow to get to Recovery 4-item menu
- I pressed Advanced
- I pressed Enable ADB
On my PC:
- I ran “sudo apt install adb”
- I ran “adb shell”
From ADB shell:
- I ran “ls”
- Output:
I read:
- "Your data may be corrupt": /e/os booting into recovery and crashing on startup after running out of disk space
- How to mount encrypted /data partition in recovery mode?
I’m still confused about which command lines to type in order to locate and delete excessively large Signal backup files.
Could you please clarify?
