Answer 1

You are trying to write to system folders. With ADB you have root (admin) access so you see the system folders of which sdcard is one of them so to send a picture you could use

D:\Program Files\Android\sdk\platform-tools\adb push am files\android sdk\adb.exe push C:\Downloads\anand.jpg /sdcard/pictures/

NB: C:\Downloads\anand.jpg replace with path and name to picture..

Answer 2

From Ubuntu Terminal, below works for me.

./adb push '/home/hardik.trivedi/Downloads/one.jpg' '/data/local/'

Answer 3

Sometimes you need the extension,

adb push file.zip /sdcard/file.zip

Answer 4

In my case, I had an already removed SDCard still registered in Android. So I longpressed the entry for my old SDCard under:

Settings | Storage & USB

and selected "Forget".

Afterwards a normal

adb push myfile.zip /sdcard/

worked fine.

Answer 5

run below command firstly

adb root
adb remount

Then execute what you input previously

C:\anand>adb push anand.jpg /data/local
C:\anand>adb push anand.jpg /data/opt
C:\anand>adb push anand.jpg /data/tmp

Answer 6

Try this to push in Internal storage.

adb push my-file.apk ./storage/emulated/0/

Works in One plus device, without SD card.
