Hello to all.
I am writing here because surely one of you will help me.
I have a notebook with windows xp 32bit, on which I regularly installed java jdk and android sdk (with whom I have downloaded the google usb drive).
When the phone is switched on (ROM started to understand), from the command prompt, running the command "adb devices" everything works perfectly, but as I enter fastboot (menu 'clk) and launch the command "fastboot devices" or tend to flash a recovery or simply to update clk, out the word "waiting of device" and does not go forward.
I state that I position it in the folder C: \ ....... platfotm-tools (where there are the files that I need).
thanks

Hi,
Try this:
On your device, enter recovery and connect via usb cable to your pc.
On your pc, download the latest Black-cLK (black_lk_20130314.img) and put it in the same folder you have adb.
Do a [Shift+RightClick] in that folder and select "Open command window here".
Execute these commands:
Code:
adb push black_lk_20130314.img /sdcard/black_lk_20130314.img
adb shell erase_image lk
adb shell flash_image lk /sdcard/black_lk_20130314.img
*I don't remember if the recovery you have now, has the erase_image & flash_image binaries. If not, you can take them from a rom and push them to your device.
Regards!

EDIT:
Thank you all for the advice.
Honestly with ADB from recovery I have not tried but I solved by using another pc with w7. The only thing I do not spego is that with nthe same procedure on my pc does not work while on another it works perfectly.
I'll probably have to change pc.
Is the find command available only with Root access and busybox?
I can't access the find command in the terminal emulator in Android.
I'm trying to control my Nexus 4 using adb commands from computer, but when I type in adb shell and then su on command prompt I can't click "yes" on the dialog box to enable superuser permissions. How can I do this?
For anyone having the same problem, I found a solution. You'll need USB Debugging for most of this.
-Download a program called MyMobiler to your PC
-Connect your phone via usb and use MyMobiler on the pc toolbar to install the app on the phone
-You'll need to grant superuser permissions if your phone is rooted, so in order to do that you'll need to use adb commands from the Android SDK. Open up a command prompt in the platform-tools folder once you've downloaded SDK
-To get past the lock screen use commands from this link. For me (I don't have a pin or anything, I just needed to get out of the lock screen), I typed "adb shell input keyevent 22" to swipe right to the camera app and then "adb shell input keyevent 3" to hit the home button, which got me to my home screen. If you have a pin, you can type in "adb shell input text 1234" and replace 1234 with whatever your pin is
-Now you can control your screen using the commands on the link above (mainly numbers 19-23)
-If all is running correctly (and you have granted superuser permissions to let MyMobiler run on your phone), you can use the arrow keys to navigate throughout the phone
-If you have any problems, you should follow the MyMobiler start guide
I also followed this guide for help. He uses the app androidscreencast, but that didn't work for me, so I went with MyMobiler.
Hello all,
I haven't really seen any options for restoring our Nexus 7's using Linux and terminal commands....
SO I made one!
This guide is the simplest I could make it and it only uses a few commands to get your Nexus 7 back up and running in the event of a brick or loss of data.
AS long as you have access to the Bootloader option of the device, this tool should work.
INSTRUCTIONS
1.Make sure that you have ADB and Fastboot installed
Open Terminal (CTRL+ALT+T)
Just type what's in the quotation marks, do not include the marks
Type "sudo apt-get update"
Type "sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot"
2. While in Terminal, browse to location of downloaded files (boot.img , system.img)
ex. Type something like "cd ~/Downloads/NexusRestore"
3. Connect your Nexus 7 to your computer with USB cable and make sure that the device is in bootloader mode
HINT: type "fastboot devices" and it should show a set of random characters and then the word "Fastboot" to the right
4. Type these commands to restore your device to a stock rooted Jellybean ROM
fastboot devices
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (ONLY use this if you DO NOT want to kep your original recovery or if you lost it due to your situation)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot
5. Profit
You may now go back to recovery and flash the ROM of your choice or do whatever your heart desires

Happy Restoring!! Let me know if you have any questions or need more Help :laugh:
Not to be nit picky but the instructions you gave are for Debian based distros (most likely Ubuntu/Mint- since android-tools are a backport in Debian Wheezy), IMHO it would be better to specify that this is a Ubuntu/Mint (Debian) Guide, since other distros use different package managers.
Once you have android tools installed there is an easier method.
Download factory image, extract the tar archive, run flash-all.sh
(optionally edit flash-all and remove the -w switch to preserve user data)

I appreciate the info, I've only ever used Ubuntu Linux and every method that I had found so far was super in depth and not exactly simple. I've been doing this stuff for a while, so it's no big deal for me, but I wanted to provide something for people who don't do this kind of stuff every day. Just trying to contribute to the "cause" i guess. lol
Good tutorial

First link in "Dowload" is dead !
Thanks for this simple tuto !
In introduction of your thread, you can put this link : http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html
I do not know how to use windows command prompt and ADB and I have little experience installing custom recoveries and roms I would appreciate some help.
Simple.
Find an adb installer, countless links on this site alone gets you that.
In my windows machine, I install adb to c:\adb. I then right click the adb folder then click 'command window here'
If you get no 'command window here', google a registry patch for your os that simply puts 'command window/prompt' here
In the black box that opens, type 'adb devices'
Voila, your now an expert in seeing your device from a different angle, now all you got to do is read everything you can find on this site relating to your device, and follow any instructions., using this black box to type commands which then get sent to your device.
