While looking at somethings about installing certain apps or rooting, I see that they say to use adb. Is this something used on the phone itself, computer, or both. From what I understand, it is similar to command prompt on the PC.

Its a bridge for your comp to talk to the phone. With adb u can push pull remove files ect ect. Its a tool to learn if u want to get into andtoid modding.

OK. Thanks. So, it's something to download online on my PC, then connect my phone to the PC, and go on from there. Is that correct?
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
Yep. Download the android sdk. Android.com
Java will need to be dloaded. Sdk will prompt that.

FYI
There is a pretty good thread about ADB that shows up as the first sticky in this questions and Answers forum.
Thank you both for your responses. They helped to clarify my understanding.

So I have been looking around and Im seeing that you will need the ADB set up and I saw this http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/ and saw this for user that are on windows 7 http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/08/24/workaround-for-htc-hero-sync-problem-in-windows-7/
Wondering if anyone did this yet for there phone and that they have win7? was there any issues or anything?
Hmm.. I already had SDK9 installed. I installed HTC Sync, connected my phone, Win7 Pro x86 installed the drivers properly, it was now showing as an "Android Device" in Device Manager, and I was able to verify I had ADB access. I didn't have to do anything special

Currently trying to root my Motorola Photon 4G, and cannot find the Android Debug Bridge to begin my root process, can anyone point me into the right direction on where to find the installer? Seems everyone links to the same place for the installer in root how-tos for the Photon.
If you can wait until tomorrow, I'll send you all the adb files.

Ok, I'd been on the Sense 5 Rom and Elemental 6.7 for a while. Today I noticed that my phone wasn't going to sleep and was normally clocked around 1.0 Ghz no matter what it was doing. I tried changing the settings with No-frills cpu control but it didnt work. Long story short: I rebooted into recovery and reflashed the kernel to see if it would fix the problem. I used the stock elemental x settings (no overclock or undervoltage). The kernel flashed, I pressed reboot and the phone went dark... It wont cut on, holding the power button does nothing and plugging it into the computer gets me the qhsusb_dload message that I've read isnt a good thing to have. However most people who had this problem seem to have gotten it from RUU while S-On, my phone was S-Off so I'm wondering does that help my chances any, and is there anything I can do to restore my phone?
Try the unbrick evita thread. You'll need to run linux by live usb or live CD if you don't run linux. A virtual machine could work too.
If you can make it past step 3 and the partitions are intact, you can restore your phone.

I tried the unbrick evita thread but the zip is no longer posted on dropbox. I worked up to step 3 and there are some /dev/sda/ folders which I am presuming are the partitions... I can't find the unbrick_evita.zip file so if anyone has it I would really appreciate it. If I can find it on my own I'll update this thread. Thanks in advance.

There should be a bunch of partitions Like in the picture in the unbrick thread if you only have 3 or 4 or 5 then it not recoverable.

Alright guys. Seems like I'm fully bricked. Another guy on here had the same issue and said he sent it to HTC and they covered it so I called and am gonna send it in as well. *Fingers crossed* If it doesnt work then I'll probably just save up and upgrade to the one.
I know I dont post a lot here, but I do a lot of reading and you all have been super helpful. Thanks for the hard work you all put into this.

If you are in QHSUSB-DLMODE after trying to install RUU, OTA, or a custom kernel, you are pretty much done, aside from JTAG or sending it to HTC. I don't believe anybody has unbricked from any of these conditions.

You could try for years and will not recover. You require specially signed files from HTC to recover from that.
You are more than welcome to try the unbrick evita thread but if your patitions don't enumerate (step 3) there Is no way to recover without signed files from HTC. Other than jtagg ofcourse.

I need the file: unbrick_evita.zip can give me??
hi...frnds...
any provide me unbrick_evita.zip file....please its urgent.....
I've tried searching for an answer on this but haven't had any luck. Is it possible to update from the SD card using the stock recovery? Or should I say is it safe to? I don't have a computer that I can install ADB on.
If so, any idea why I don't have that option, it only lists Update From ADB in my recovery (I am not connected to anything via USB).
Thanks, and sorry if it's been answered elsewhere already (if so a link would be awesome).
Edit - Aaaaaannnnnd... I didn't post in the Q&A forum. Mods feel free to move. Sorry.

The stock recovery doesn't seem to have an option for it... I wanted to try it but ended up sideloading it.

Blah, this stinks. I only have a work laptop without admin rights so I can't install the device drivers. Seeing everyone sideloading it is killing me. ?
