Also look up "path variables windows (whatever)"
are you opening your command prompt in platform-tools (or wherever your fastboot.exe is)? you havent given us much background on what you did to setup and what you've done to troubleshoot...

You need to cd in cmd to the directory you extracted your sdk tools to. Or drop the fastboot and adb files from your download into c:\windows\system32. Or add your extracted directory to environment variables as per the link.
Its not difficult if you read

Alright same problem happened with me
Just go into the fastboot folder in cmd that gave you the error
Example: C:\Users\Vishnu\Downloads\Fastboot>fastboot oem lock
'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Now in cmd type cd fastboot again
C:\Users\Vishnu\Downloads\Fastboot>cd fastboot
enter
so now it should say something like this
C:\Users\Vishnu\Downloads\Fastboot\Fastboot>
after that type in fastboot and whatever command you need like fastboot oem lock or whatever
That should do it

I think i might be able to help.
You do have the adb-tools and the adb-treiber folders right? And you have run the file in the adb-treiber folder, and unlocked the bootloader from the adb-tools folder, good.
Now copy all the files from the hammerhead-lrx21o folder into the adb-tools folder, and try and run the flash-all.bat file again.
Let me know if it works, it did for me.

i wanted to flash the new firmware onto my phone so i could flash ics, but one of the requirements is to have superCID.
ive been following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
But, everytime i get to the command, "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" it only gives me a message saying, 'fastboot' is not recognized as internal or external command, operable program batch file.
is there anything i may have missed? ive tried starting over thinking i may have written a command wrong but it still wont work.
thanks in advance guys
Is fastboot present in your sdk installation? If I remember well it should be in "tools" folder of the SDK files.
Try to update your packages through SDK manager.
Re-download, the fastboot package and then unzip...
Open the folder where you see a file called Fastboot.exe
Right click anywhere while holding shift button and press open command here...
Then type that command which you want for CiD
Don't frget to thanx if it works

thanks guys
it turns out that fastboot wasnt in my adb folder but was in my android sdk folder, so i just copied and pasted it into the adb file and tried again, this time it works. thanks guys now onto flashing the new firmware
Hey guys I'm in the process of using the new rooting method and I'm at the part where I put the unlock_code.bin into my phone but I go into my computer and my phone doesn't show up. I am currently in bootloader and stopped for fear of hurting my phone. How do I proceed? So sorry for being such a noob but I'd really really appreciate it if someone could help me!

you need to have fastboot executable installed in that directory also is your phone in debugging mode ?
take a peak at gunny's adb/fastboot primer here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1754018
hopefully that'll do it. good luck

Ok I put fastboot in there and it still didn't work. The phone is currently in bootloader. Yes I had debugging on when I switched it to bootloader.
What do you mean by didn't work? What is happening now when you run fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

go into the directory where your adb is and run "adb devices" from command prompt and let's see if your device is recognized, if it isn't it might be your drivers or try a different usb port.

Are you executing the commands from the folder where fastboot exists ? For example
You have adb, fastboot in C:\android-sdk\platform-tools" then you need to goto C:\android-sdk\platform-tools" ( Or folder where adb and fastboot exists) then "Press shift + right click and select "Open command window here" ( open command prompt and cd "folder where adb and fastboot exists) and then execute the command

did you get the unlock_code.bin from the htcdev website ?? It also needs to be in the same directory as your fastboot executable.

open the folder where you extracted the tarbal
hold down shift and right click
open command prompt here
do a "fastboot devices" to check if your device is connected
continue flashing using the commands.

"Into your FASTBOOT folder". adb's got nothing to do with this.

worked for me i never had to put anything into my android tools folder, i have system wide access no matter where i open up the command prompt.
Easiest way is to extract the sh1t out of the Google file until you eventually see all the img files. Then extract the fastboot zip into the same folder they're in and open a command prompt there.

People refer to the folder with ADB and fastboot in it as the ADB folder (If you had adb/fastboot in the system path this wouldn't even be required)
Do you really think I meant them to use ADB? Come on, now

Hi All, I hope someone can help.
I got this phone in December, and unlocked it, flashed TWRP and rooted.
My phone automaticly updated and was on version 7.1.2. But Super SU wasnt working anymore.
I tried to boot into TWRP but it was saying somthing like "No command given" when I tried.
I used Skipsoft toolkit to flash the recovery again (What I originally used) and when the phone rebooted, it gets to the Google logo and instantly reboots.
I can get to bootloader, but if I select recovery, it reboots.
Is there anything I can do here?
I did a backup in TWRP before I flashed, its stored on the phone.
Thanks in advance
I would use the tool to go back to stock. Just pick the last Google is the app I believe its V. Either update to the lastest software or I just flashed a rom with the newest vender
Hi, Thanks for your reply.
How can I do this though, I cant get the phone to boot, or into recovery
Is there a way I can use adb to push a TMRP so I can restore my backup?
My PC makes the noise as if something is attached by USB, but when I do adb devices, nothing shows.
Hi all,
I managed to sort it out and restore to original as advised above with fastboot. Never used it before, but I followed this guide and it worked great.

You can get TWRP and root on the May update.

This didn't work for me. I got as far as:
7. Now type the following command in the command window and hit the Enter key.
flash-all.bat
When doing that, I got the following returned in the CMD prompt:

In the CMD prompt, make sure you're in the folder where you extracted the contents of the zip file.

I probably should have clarified, but by quoting step 7 as the point it failed, I meant to imply that I had performed steps 1-6. Step 6 is the "open command prompt here" step.

That error means flash-all.bat is not in the same directory as the command prompt you opened. You unzipped it elsewhere, didn't unzip it or you opened the command prompt in the wrong place.
