[GUIDE][30/10/2013]New To Adb And Fastboot Guide

this is just a quice guide about some main features of adb and fastboot and ways you can use them

heres some simple information i can give you about a device, a device has 6 main partitions, system, data,

cache, dalvik cache, recovery and externel(sdcard)

for a device to boot it must have a boot.img, system.img and a data.img, when you backup your phone it backs

up system.img, boot.img(included in system.img), data.img, cache.img, dalvik cache(thats included in the

cache.img), and optionally your recovery.img(no point)

THIS WILL TAKE 10 MINUTES OF YOUR TIME AND WILL BENEFIT YOU FOR LIFE

Quote:

Here is a little package i uploaded with adb.exe fastboot.exe AdbWinApi.dll AdbWinUsbApi.dll and a file named

OPEN.CMD that opens a command window in the same directory as adb and fastboot -

IDEIDE

Quote:

this is the folder we w ill be working with. so unzip it and open the OPEN.CMD file and a command prompt will

appear.

ADB INTRODUCTION

IDEIDE

Quote:

adb and fastboot can be really hard to work with until you learn the language of it(its easy)

when theres somewhere and something you wanna do, theres almost always a way!

if your using adb to do a task you must do it with your device on, adb you cant do much with, you can pull files

from your phone to your computer, and you can push files f rom computer to your phone, you can reboot your

phone, reboot into recovery reboot into bootloader

note, to pull or push system files you have to type in adb root, to get superuser permissions

NOTE: Your Phones Root Directory Is "/"

FASTBOOT INTRODUCTION

IDEIDE

Quote:

now fastboot,

move any file you want to flash or use in fastboot into the Adb Abd Fastboot folder you extracted, fastboot you

must have your device booted into bootloader and in fastboot mode, fastboot has many more commands,

without fastboot our lives would be miserable, fastboot you can flash recoveries, flash .zip files, unlockbootloader, lock bootloader, flash .img files, w ipe partitions get your cid number, write a cid number

i know it doesnt seem like much but doing stuff in the right order you can do ALOOOOT! for example my tool

simply uses adb and fastboot commands, look how many features ive added?

move the files your flashing to the same folder as fastboot

FLASH A .ZIP FILE

IDEIDE

to flash a .zip file called flashme.zip put the zip file in your fastboot folder and type

Quote:

fastboot flash flashme.zip

FLASH A RECOVERY IMAGE (.IMG)

IDEIDE

to flash a recovery called twrp.img, put it in your fastboot folder and type

Quote:

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

UNLOCK BOOTLOADER

IDEIDE

to unlock bootloader from htc you get your identifier token then download the unlock_code.bin they email you andflash it

Quote:

fastboot oem get_identifier_token <how to get token>

fastboot oem flash Unlock_code.bin <how to flash it>

fastboot oem lock <relock bootloader>

FLASHING SPECIFIC IMAGE FILES(SYSTEM, DATA ,CACHE, ECT)

IDEIDE

orite now to flash .img files, if your gonna flash a system, data or cache .img file i recommend wiping the partition

before flash, and to manually restore your phone you must flash system, data, cache

note, to flash a recovery, all your doing is flashing a recovery .img

note, if your gonna flash a boot.img dont try to wipe your boot partition just flash it

to flash system image file

Quote:

fastboot erase system

fastboot flash system system.img

to flash data image file

Quote:

fastboot erase data

fastboot flash data data.img

Quote:

fastboot erase cache

fastboot flash cache cache.img

HOW TO GET CID NUMBER

IDEIDE

this is how you get your cid

Quote:

fastboot getvar cid

NO SPACE.^

HOW TO WRITE SUPERCID

IDEIDE

this is how to write super cid

Quote:

fastboot oem writecid 11111111

NO SPACE.............^

HOW TO RESTORE DEVICE BACKUP FROM COMPUTER

IDEIDE

if you wanna restore your phone on your from your computer, simply backup your phone in recovery and transferthe backup to your computer and extract all the .img files and put your phone into fastboot mode, then go on your

computer, put all your .img files in a folder with adb, fastboot, AdbWinApi and AdnWinUsbApi(the files everyone

tells you to get from the android sdk package)

then navigate to the folder on command prompt on terminal then wipe a partition then flash one

for example i do it like this, i wipe system, data and cache first, so this is what i would type,

Quote:

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase data

fastboot erase cache

then flash the .img files(need to flash system first)

Quote:

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash data data.img

fastboot flash cache cache.img

then you can flash boot.img, when you want to install a new kernel, all it is, is a a stock boot.img modified

It looks like its for an HTC. If it is, you should put that in the beginning so everyone knows. You should also explain why

you are doing this and what it does to the phone. From what I can tell, it does nothing at all and not even worth being a

sticky
