Are you in the right directory ? Do you have adb and fastboot for mac installed ?

no, ./ is actually correct on the mac. do you have adb in that directory not just fasboot !
if you type ./adb devices what do you get ?

Still says no such file or directory . Does ./make it look for a file or something?

You have to cd (change directory) first. So open terminal than type cd.
Than if i remember right you keep tapping the space bar until you see the adb folder.Once there than run the adb commands.
Yep i'm pretty sure that's right because in Windows you tap the tab key
If i helped hit the thanks button!

Do you have adb in the directory you are in ??? I'm wiling to help but you need to answer this...
if you don't have adb installed it's pointless, 2 possibilities either you have adb installed but are not currently in the directory where it resides (you then need to navigate to the right directory using the cd command) or you don't and you need to install it and then go to that directory.

that's just not possible with the error message you get...you either not in the right directory or it's not installed.
Go to the directory where you think adb is and type ls and post the results.
Are you sure your USB debugging is on

He is right though. That error message can only mean it's not in the directory or you typed the name wrong. Are you sure there's not something simple you're overlooking? Sometimes we geeks over think things. I'm not a mac user but that error message is pretty clear.

As Redpoint said if you want help you need to try to follow instructions. you posted adb_mac after i asked you to perform an "ls"in your directory so that made sense as far as getting a "no such file or directory" error if you execute by doing ./adb. Either it's not there, it's corrupted,there is typo or wrong directory, that's the only time you will get this error maybe you just want to try re-installing adb in your directory of choice.
go to directory where adb reside type "ls" and post a screenshot

To install it you need root and knowledge of adb. Then use these commands
Code:
adb remount
adb push qhdkeyboard.apk /system/app
adb shell
su
chmod 644 /system/app/qhdkeyboard.apk
Then reboot

If you have Root Explorer you can copy it to /system/app after mounting R/W and the long press and change permissions to RW-R--R-- and reboot
is it possible for the atrix users to somehow extract the skype skin they have ....was playing arouind with one today and much prefer the white and black skin they have to the blue one...

I found this rootzwiki.com/topic/2603-radio-htc-sensation-radios-pg58imgzip-update-24-nov-2011/ and one of the steps it says to drag a zip a the adb folder. Is that same adb folder I made when I was getting super CID?
If not, how do I setup it up or how do you flash a radio through adb?

OK,
Please refer to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178143
[EDIT] I also meant to add that you shouldn't refer to an external page then ask here how to do something that XDA folks have had no visibility of.
There are basically two methods, one is to copy the PG59IMG.zip file to the root of the SDcard. You can do this either by an "adb push" OR mount the SDcard on your PC and then copy it over with Windows Explorer.
The second method is to flash the .IMG directly.
The files for either method don't need to be in the adb directory, just helps on the typing though. Where adb is depends on where you installed it, in my case on this laptop it's: "C:\android-sdk>".
I did did some digging and found the exact same post here on xda. Sorry for the confusion.

Here's instructions If u r using tapatalk open in browser and it will make more sense, in the app everything looks confusing
if your partitions are not the same as below change the mmcblk1pXX to your correct block ( to find your block partitions in adb shell or terminal on device
Code:
su
cat /proc/partitions
now enter theses commands in adb shell or terminal
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk1p11 of=/sdcard/boot.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk1p12 of=/sdcard/recovery.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk1p17 of=/sdcard/system.img

Hi guys
After a few weeks on f2fs i decided to revert back y filesystem to ext4. Everything goes well except sideloading new rom to my device ( as its completely wiped ) Everything is now formated to ext4. Then the problem starts..
When I'm trying to sideload the rom i get error 'cannot read' even though I've put rom in my adb folder and my device is connected in sideload mode.
If someone could help me via team viewer ( free software allowing you to use my PC from yours PC ) it would be super great.
Thanks

Must give the path to your ROM zip. Your cmd prompt runs from c: \users\koppa but the ROM is not there.
You can't put the ROM in the adb folder. That only works if. You haven't added adb to your environment variable path and you have cd to that location
To get this to work either put the ROM in c: \users\koppa or cd to your adb folder or give the full path in the command

A neat little trick with Windows and cmd is to back out of the folder you are in. So, if the path was C:\Users\toster jp\adb, back out to the C:\Users\toster jp folder. Hold shift and right click the adb folder. Select Open command window here. Then, cmd automatically cd to the proper directory. Then your adb sideload rom.zip will work.
