I know this was posted a little while ago, but I just used it.  I've tried a million different ways to get ADB working and haven't been successful (I'm not super computer literate).  However, this worked and was easy to follow.  Thanks Tuc.

Adb stands for Android Debugging Bridge. You can learn a lot more about it HERE.

That was a really nice straight foward tutorial. I also ran into the same issue when trying to run the adk manager and I just needed to update java in order to get it to work. Now I'm going to use your tutorial on how to set up recoveries. Again, very helpful.

Thanks!

 

It worked great!  You saved me as nothing else worked.

 

Minor change I had to make:  Had to move adb and fastboot files to actual drive outside of the folder; otherwise, were not recognized.

Worked perfectly thanks, just wanted to clarify that using the xt912 Razr I don't need to use a different fastboot binary? The post regarding omap/snapdragon binaries was worded slightly confusing.

Do we have to amend the files regarding snapdragon or OMAP devices or were they amended in the OP? This is the first time Im trying to flash a custom recovery into a xt907 and I just want to ensure I have lined up properly


....its never too late to learn :google

Very little has changed at all. The ONLY thing I could suggest, like it's been mentioned already, is browse to where you stored your SDK's platform-tool. So let's just say "C:\Android\SDK\Platform-tools" then, depending on whether you normally deal with OG Razr/Bionic OR Razr HD/M download the appropriate motorola fastboot binary and overwrite the AOSP one. Matt keeps copies of them

 

OMAP (OG Razr/Bionic) Fastboot 

or

Snapdragon (Razr HD, M) Fastboot

 

Make sure you grab the Windows executable from Matts zip as he supplies Windows, OSX and Linux binaries in those zips. (I'm gonna amend this write up soon to include the same process for OSX I think.)

 

If you're dealing with NON Moto devices, you can stick with the SDK supplied fastboot binary. The reasoning behind this has been mentioned in the thread, the Moto FB binary will nicely split the larger partitions up.

 

I know this is an older post but do binary files need to be copied and pasted regardin an xt907 or is that inclided already? This is the step that is confusing me a little. What file is being copied and overwriting the one in sdk platform tool? I followed your tutorial and I was easily insert the path and adb runs fine on Windows 7 PC.

 

Thanks

You should be fine just to use the sdk files you've downloaded.  Mfastboot is only necessary to flash the system.img.

You would download the zip, unzip it and surf to the folder that corresponds to your OS, then copy the fastboot.exe and paste it to the platform-tools folder.
