2. Copy the precompiled TCPDUMP file to the "/data" library on your phone:
first make sure your "/data" library has READ and WRITE privileges. if not use: "chmod 777 data"
in order to copy use the following command if you have ADB :"adb push c:\locationOfTheTcpdumpFile /data"
in case you don't have ADB you can copy the tcpdump file to the SD card and do: "cat /sdcard/tcpdump > /data/tcpdump
3. Give the tcpdump file Read Write and Exec privileges : "chmod 777 /data/tcpdump"
