Moving the .dex file to Dalvik-Cache caused my Milestone to reboot as soon as
USB was connected. Then, after the reboot, the file was gone, and no more
reboots after connecting USB... guess it didn't like it all too much... :|
Any ideas?

Make sure you have upgrded to the relevant revision of the SDK and then start
an emulator for THAT version to grab the .dex from... I figured that out when
the r7/2.1u1 .dex wouldn't work on my Droid running r8/2.2... updated to the r8
SDK and redid the steps and alls well for me... I don't have a Milestone to
test this on so your mileage may vary...

You may be onto something there - I was using an Android 2.2 emulator, and my
Milestone is running 2.1. I'll give it another try tomorrow :)
Thanks for the tip!

Hmmm, for some reason I can't move the file to dalvik-cache.
mv ... failed on '/data/local/...' - Cross-Device link.
Could it be because of my having moved Dalvik-Cache to a different partition?
Moving the file via Root Explorer doesn't work either (says it's moving the
file and then doesn't do anything)...

I just used root explorer and changed permission of directory dalvik-cache to

None of the other ways worked because it kept saying TEMPclasses.dex did not

Hi! I'm from Argentina, I've found this project searching in XDA and I think
it's really interesting.
I'm running it on Moto Milestone 2.1 rooted, and I can see my home, but I can't
control it, only view it.
Is there a solution to this without giving full control to dalvik cache
(security reasons)?
Thanks!

Thank you TJ for the workaround, here is a super simplified version of the walk
through... if you can't follow this i don't know if you should be doing this.
{NOTE: CMD LINES ASSUME YOU INSTALLED ANDROIDSDK DIRECTLY TO C:\ and changed
its name... i.e. C:\AndroidSDK}
~Phone should not be connected yet~
1.Download AndroidSDK to C:\ and change its name to AndroidSDK
2.Run it and update everything (this will take a bit of time)
3.Make an AVD (Android Virtual Device) of your phone. Virtual Devices>New…
Give it a name (whatever is clever)
Target (your android version)
SD Card (size of SD)
Create AVD
4.Start AVD, let it load completely to android home screen
5.Start Screencast
6.Open command line (start>search>cmd)
7.In cmd type… (every line signifies the push of enter)
cd\
cd AndroidSDK\tools
adb pull /data/dalvik-cache/data@local@tmp@InjectAgent.jar@classes.dex mine.dex
8.Turn off emulator, Android SDK, and screencast
9.Connect ROOTED droid (MUST BE IN USB DEBUG MODE)
10.in cmd type…
adb push mine.dex /data/local/data@local@tmp@InjectAgent.jar@classes.dex
adb shell
su (wait a second b/c your phone will ask you to allow/deny access to Super User, allow)
mv /data/local/data@local@tmp@InjectAgent.jar@classes.dex /data/dalvik-cache/data@local@tmp@InjectAgent.jar@classes.dex
That’s it. Nothing of importance will post on cmd to let you know it worked.
Close out cmd and turn on screencast again. It should work fine no bugs or
crashes at all, right click works too. Admittedly it is a bit slow on screen
but input is instantaneous if looking at your phone. Also, your phone has to
stay in Debug mode for it to work.

had the same problem (no left mouse or keyboard) on rooted Epic.
I just changed the permissions on dalvik-cache directory as following:
adb shell
su
cd data
chmod 777 dalvik-cache
Restarted the desktop app and have full control now.
Is changing the permissions on that directory too risky? Is there a particular
file I can change permissions on instead of the entire directory? Thanks.

Just an update I can get this to work every time on my droid x (had a period
last month where I needed a replacement and went thru a few handsets before
asurion decided just to give me a new phone)
{NOTE: CMD LINES ASSUME YOU INSTALLED ANDROIDSDK DIRECTLY TO C:\ and changed

6.Open command line (start>search>cmd)
7.In cmd type… (every line signifies the push of enter)

but input is instantaneous if looking at your phone. Also, your phone has to
stay in Debug mode for it to work.
*******NOTE: the only bug I have found is that sometimes I need to scan with
adb devices to get screencast to work. to do this open cmd and:
cd\
cd AndroidSDK\platform-tools
adb devices
Also, I just did it to my droid while updating this post and noticed that
Screencast has been updated to scan for devices as well, BUT, I had no control
with keyboard or mouse. However, after doing the above steps I did.
good luck

I can verify that comment 33 (thanks) works on Motorola Droid. I was able to
get android screencast to display but had difficulty getting the mouse and
keyboard to work. I found the easiest way to resolve the problem was:
1)Download "Better Terminal Emulator Pro" from the market (there is a fee of $3.99 but worked well...other free terminal emulators and a basic version of $0.99 are available but not tested)
2)Open the application and proceed to the Shell section. Look for the words "Start as root" and make sure it is checked (this will start the terminal as root (device must be rooted)
3)Type in the following commands...
chmod 777 /data/dalvik-cache
cd /data/dalvik-cache
chmod 777 ./*
Start android screencast. Mouse and keyboard will work. There is some delay of
the typed words and mouse clicks, but only on the pc (screencast). No delay on
the actual android device. Hope this helps others who are having difficulty.
Best of luck and leave a reply if helpful.

I'm confused as to how to open the emulator on the computer. I'm assuming that
what you're doing anyway considering screencast wouldn't make sense for someone
who's screen worked on their phone. My captivate's screen is shattered but it
still works. Trying to reset my phone to sell it. I can see the phone on
screencast but can't control it. I downloaded better terminal emulator (Free
version) onto the phone. But how do I open it if my phone doens't work? Or
how do I open it on my computer to control my phone? Sorry for these noob
questions.
