I feel like such a freaking noob it aint even funny.... I have the path correct. When i open a command prompt, i typed in adb but it only gave me like a table of contents or something.... What am i suppose to type to get to my phone?





Edit: Ok i figured it out, wen to cmd prompt, typed adb recovery shell, bam, Droid went to recovery, then typed in command to flash, but no help, went to mount options on phone, mounted the sdcard, ran commands again... BAMM! thanks yawl, now have lastest recovery thingy. OK no how to flash custom roms... any help????
