Me too bro, I can not understand this adb shell stuff at all, my computer says adb drivers aren't installed even though I manually installed them. When I type adb shell into the cmd prompt it says it is an unrecognized command... Anyone want to help!?!?

did you go to your folder that contains the androidsdk tools folder then ctrl shift right click on the tools folder then open command window here? You have to be in that folder for it to work properly from what I understand. I always run adb shell from there. It should work. Good luck

Have you tried my tutorial section 5?
You don't need to know or understand adb. Just type what I tell you.
In fact, I don't even use the android-sdk, I just use the evo-recovery.zip file many people already had from rooting the 1st time around.

I tried this and it is telling me the same thing, 'adb' is not a recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Yes your directions are very clear, but when I get to step 5S it says No such file or directory, Not a directory, any help? :/

all the commands work till 5S and then it tells me that that
chmod: No such file or directory is found
755: no such file or directory is found
write: no space left on device
$

I think may be typing it wrong or don't get it. ????

Edit: I think I was typing it as whole and not separate commands. I believe that was my problem.

UPDATE: I FIGURED IT OUT, TOOK SOME TIME BUT I GOT IT. I think I finally understanding this android thing like I did with WM! Thank you everyone for your help!!!
