As you can see in title I want to record screen without root, I don't want to hook it up to PC and then start recording only for 3 minutes long. I want to do longer than that and without PC and the app be free. Does anyone know an app that can do that or I need to be rooted ?
Unfortunately if you don't want to use ADB to record you need root.
Yes you have hope!
Take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2629723
I know it says you require adb but the command works perfectly even in the phone.
You'll need an app like Terminal Emulator to open up the console and type in the command.
No root required.

Noooooooooooo... That's not what you do.
'adb' is for your PC ONLY.
Type whatever is there after 'adb shell'
For example, type 'screenrecord /sdcard/video.mp4'
See, the adb shell command on your PC allows you to control your Android's terminal FROM the PC.
Instead, you can simply type the commands after 'adb shell' into your Android's terminal.

Oh right OK. So I can do anything that has adb shell after it ? But I don't see adb shell in that tutorial
Oh never mind . that means I need to be hooked up to PC to record all the time. I don't want to be beside PC all the time trying to record

No!
You don't seem to get my point.
Try this :
Open terminal, type the following -
screenrecord --time-limit 10 /sdcard/demo.mp4
This should record a 10 second long session from your screen and dump it into a video.

I don't know the maximum allowed time, but if you don't type the '--time-limit' flag, its set to 3 mins by default.
Guess its impossible to record games if max time is limited to 3 mins. You got no choice other than rooting then.

I installed ADB (Windows 7) has described in this forum. ADB recognizes my phone when the phone is on. When I load the bootloader to prepare to unlock it the serial number does not show like when its on. Is this normal? Do I just proceed to unlock it?

You should not see it mounted unless you have it mounted. try running this command replacing blah with the file path to your adb file
Code:
blah/blah/blah adb shell
If it works, you're golden. If not, troubleshoot
I set the environmental variables so I can just enter adb shell?

Um I'm not too great with windows and on a mac we just drag the adb file into our command prompt and it works =/ what I'm saying is I have no idea what you mean by environmental variables. Try it? If it doesn't tell you the phone isn't there but also doesn't say its starting the daemon then you have to enter everything.
Awesome I'll give it a shot when I get home.

I tried adb shell and it says error: device not found. I've tried to update the drivers that i got from this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878786
Inside the x64 drivers there looks like there are 4 that might work:
Android_test
Android_usb
Android_winusb
Android_winusb2
I really dont understand what I'm doing wrong.
Edit: I entered the entire path and still nothing.
haha I got it. I was getting frustrated of trying to "play it safe" and said screw it. I just went ahead and entered fastboot oem unlock and it worked lol......

Ok so i downloaded adb already along with android sdk. But every time I click on the adb application it just opens and closes immediately after a bunch of words show up but I can't read it because it closes too fast. Is there something I'm missing?

You cannot open adb like that.. You need open command prompt where adb exist and then use commands, for example
If you installed sdk in c:/android then you need to open command prompt and type
cd c:/android/platform-tools
Then start using adb commands like
adb push
adb pull

There should be a prompt on your phone when you connect to a computer. If it doesn't show up, then try using the "Revoke usb authorisations" option and try again.

Had the same issue. Solved it by enabling PTP in Settings - Storage - (menu button in the upper right) - USB-Connection.
After enabling PTP the Popup with RSA key appeared.
Hope I could help.

I did sort of the same. I disabled MTP and didn't enable MTP and that worked. You might need to do a fresh install of the drivers.
You won't get the pop-up by just plugging it in and toggling USB Debug, etc. You need to open up a program that uses ADB (Like WugFresh) or a command prompt in the adb/fastboot folder and typing -> adb devices (or fastboot devices if in fastboot mode). I just revoked computer permissions and tried ticking and unticking everything, and I couldn't get the auth pop-up. As soon as I started WugFresh, the pop-up appeared on the phone to authorize.
Still no popup
I tried everything in this topic and I still don't get popup RSA key.. working with nexus5 4.4.2 and windows8 and WugFresh toolkit
Any idea?

First of all, don't use toolkits... Please.
Make sure you have installed the correct drivers... Download Android sdk and make sure you have downloaded the usb_driver...
Go to developer options and revoke permissions, enable adb debugging... Now again connect your n5 to the PC and the a message should popup...
I had this problem because I was using an old version of adb

Do you get the yellow exclamation mark in device manager on the port not working? I had a device where no matter what I couldn't get the pc to recognize it. What worked for me was to go to update drivers, then right below the area where you can browes for drivers is an area where you can choose drivers from a list on your computer. Go there and look for the android adb interface driver

If you can copy files to the phone from the pc, just copy the super su zip to your phone. Then flash it in a custom recovery

You don't need adb to root. Can you copy files to your phone? If so, copy supers.zip to /sdcard/download. Then get a twrp.img file and you'll flash that in fastboot.

Try adb: in cmd type: adb backup -apk -all -noshared -system or adb pull sdcard /sdcard/

You can use ES File Explorer or find another app and maybe connect a CIFS (Windows File Sharing) share or NFS or even FTP. If you can set up a ftp server on your Mac it should work.

Here is a way to install adb'fastboot on win8 or win8.1 for your htcm8 in less then 10 mins. only 1 Fully working m8 driver an 1 program needed to install an then your up an running adb/fastboot on win8.1 with nothing else to install no SDK no nothing
You simpley just launch program an start entrering adb an fastboot commands
DIRECTIONS
download the need files below
extract them [myself I did it to my desktop]
then to get driver to work always[no more waitng for device]
scroll to settings tab in bottom right screen
pick change pc settings an click update an recovery
next pick recovery
Then pick advanvced set up
REBOOT IS REQUIRED it should auto do this or prompt you do
then pick troubleshoot>Advance options>startup settings>click restart
once it reboots you need to disable driver signature enforcement by selecting number 7
Reboot once last time it will boot right to OS
Plug phone in>navigate to device manager I tested with a 2.0usb an stock cord
You should see your phone under other devices>click on it an select update driver software
pick find file yourself then navagte to file you extracted of driver>click ok an install driver.
Then simply install the minimal adb/fastboot program I would add desdktop icon
open program an type adb devices an yours will show up...[ if it shows offline check your phone for a prompt[it will be there if you get offline] check allow this pc an click ok
again type
adb devices an yours will show up an your good to go.
now you can reboot bootloader an try some fastboot commands
