I saw a lot of threads asking for instructions on how to use ADB to reboot into recovery, Push/Pull Files, etc, etc.
Just follow this guide to set up ADB in 5 seconds WITHOUT THE ANDROID SDK.
This ADB setup is less than one MB and no need to download the entire useless (for us, anyway) Android SDK.
1. Extract the Mini ADB archive attached below to any folder.
2. Just use the RunME.bat file to open a console directly in the ADB folder, so you can get started directly without the cd command!
To reboot into recovery:
Extract, Open RunMe.bat, type adb reboot recovery.
That easy.
Just make sure to have LG Phone Drivers installed beforehand.

Now you see how easy it is! Did you try it?
Its Super simple!
Does it work on any Android?

Yes.. It works when debugging is On.....
But how to get into recovery when we have bootloops or system force close
Type adb reboot recovery... it's in the op...

When you have bootloops:
Remove battery.
Re insert.
Connect phone to computer using USB.
Try to turn on phone, when bootanimation keeps looping,
run the runme.bat, type adb reboot recovery.
Done
And remember to press thanks

You can use adb also to install applications from your pc. I keep copies of my apks on windows machine - sending via usb and installing from phone is a tedious task (mounting usb, copying file, unmounting, waiting for sdcard scanning, navigating to apk file, installing). Just type:
adb install -r name.apk
USB debugging should be on.
I've created a batch and registry entry so I just make right click on apk and choose "install to sd" or "install to phone"

That's just one thing adb can do! Apart from reebooting normally and recovery, You can push/pull files to/from any folder, you can take logcats, and on ics, you can use adb to even take phone backups!
Also, could you share the bat and registry file? Looks interesting.
Sure, I'll post it here in the evening (in 4 hours)
Yup it would be really very useful and if someone has something to share related to adb please do so... it would be really very usefull for all ob users.

I could add it to the OP. With credits of course....
Ok, here you go:
the scripts assume that adb.exe is extracted to e:\MiniADB\
download attachments and remove .txt extension from them.
put scripts install.bat and install_tel.bat to e:\MiniADB and run (double click and confirm in Vista/W7/W8 to run as administrator) apk_install.reg.
After that you will get two options in context menu for apk files:
Install in phone
Install in SD card
First option will install application in phone's memory, second in sd card. If application is already installed, it will be overwritten.
If you wish to put MiniADB somewhere else you have to:
modify install.bat and install_tel.bat and replace e:\MiniADB\ with your path
modify apk_install.reg and replace e:\\MiniADB\\ with your path but remember to make all \ doubled \\
Example:
if you want to put MiniADB into c:\Android\MiniADB then replace e:\\MiniADB\\ with c:\\Android\\MiniADB\\ in a .reg file
Those scripts are for Windows only. I'm not sure if it works for Windows NT/9x as registry file format was changed as I remember.
Edit:
USB debugging must be on in a phone to adb work properly. Phone must be connected to computer
Sorry for delay

Have you read through Darch's post on how to flash this recovery? Just click on the link in my sig for this particular thread. This is not directly flashable from the sd card. You need to flash it via adb
edit* You have read the thread, do you know how to flash via adb?
Based on your signature, I'm going to assume you are already rooted.
My first question is do you have the Android SDK installed on your computer? My Next question is have you already placed the recovery image on your SD Card (if you are using apps2sd you will want to place it on the FAT partition, but do not place it in any folders)
If you can answer yes two both question above, then go ahead conncect your phone to your computer with the cable and run the sdk in a command window or terminal window (depends on if you are using Windows or Linux) and type the following:
adb shell
flash_image recovery /sdcard/nameofrecovery.img (changing the "nameofrecovery.img" to the name of the image file on your sdcard)
If you run into any problems or if you don't know how to install the sdk post back and I will give you an alternative method to try.
Yes to everything. I tried typing that from recovery and while in the phone with usb debugging on and charge only. It just kept giving me errors.

Change from charge only to sync and it should work. Make sure ur in the sdk/tools folder and type adb remount before u type in the adb shell command
If you are still having trouble, you may want to just grab from the market a neat little program called Gscript (paid version) or Gscript Lite (adware) and create a script to flash the recovery image.
Once you install it on your phone the steps are:
Start GScript
Click on the phone's Menu Key and select Add Script
Give your script an easily identifiable name
Make sure there is a check mark in the Needs SU? box
then you can type in the command to flash recovery which would be:
flash_image recovery /sdcard/"nameofimagefile" (changing the name to whatever the name of the recovery image you stored on you sd card is)
then click on save.
The script should now appear in the list of availble scripts - just click it to run it. If SuperUser Permissions pops up requesting permission click on allow and you should see message at the bottom that the window will close in 19 seconds.
To verify if this worked for you go ahead and manually reboot into recovery mode - Power off the phone, then press and hold the home key while pressing and releasing the power button.
Let me know how you make out with this.
Ok so Ive seen a few people posting in the dev section that they cant get adb working. So heres a quick write up on how to get it working on windows and linux (ubuntu) machines. Follow these directions and you should have no problems. If you notice any errors dont hesitate to point them out to me! This is meant to help, not confuse.
First you need to download ADB.
Click here and select the download appropriate for your operating system: Android SDK
For Windows:
1.Extract the .zip file you downloaded and make a note of where you extracted to.
2.Go into the extracted android-sdk_r12-windows folder.
(if you go into this folder and have another folder named 'android-sdk_r12-windows' then cut and paste it outside of the extracted folder)
3.Open SDK Manager. Let it do its thing and then make sure 'Select All' is checked and click 'Install'
4.When its done it will say ADB has been updated and needs to restart. Select OK.
5.Now go back to your android-sdk_r12-windows folder and you should have a new folder called 'platform-tools'
6.Go into that folder and you should see 'adb'
7.Now to make things easy you're going to create an adb shortcut:
Right click your desktop and choose to create a new shortcut.
It will ask you to type a location for the shortcut. Enter "CMD" without the "".
Click 'Next'
For the name type "ADB" without the "".
Now right click the shortcut you just created and select 'Properties'
Now in the Properties dialog where it says Start In, type the path to your Android SDK foler. In my case I extracted the folder to my desktop, so my path would be C:\Users\Jason\Desktop\android-sdk_r12-windows.
Then click 'OK'
Now all you have to do is click this shortcut and you're automatically in adb in the command prompt.
For Linux:
Everything above is going to be pretty much the same except for the way you get into adb.
So do steps 1-6 above.
Now, instead of a shortcut you're going to open terminal and type the following:
sudo cp <path to your sdk platform-tools folder> /usr/bin
(for <path to your sdk platform-tools folder> it will depend on where you extracted the .zip to. In my case it would look like this because I extracted it to my desktop on MY computer:
sudo cp /home/jason/Desktop/android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools/adb /usr/bin
now you can access adb directly from Terminal.
Now I dont own a Mac so Im not going to put a writeup for that. But someone can feel free to post one and I can add it to my original post.
Thats it you now have access to adb on your computer! Go flash alternate recoveries and roms and be merry in 3D!
I am on my mobile app right now and haven't been able to find the link yet in the development section, but can pretty much guarantee that most ppl are having the issue I had with error messages about being denied BC u don't have permission. You have to change the permissions to get read and write access. If someone with better knowledge than me knows about it, then please feel free to elaborate. I spent hours trying to find answers before I stumbled across how to fix permissions. I know it requires u to enter adb shell and the into su to enter the code to change permissions so u can use adb push as well as adb root, etc. If no one addresses this shortly then I will find the link on my laptop and update.

Hey guys, just got me a dell streak 7 with android 3.2. I really wanna root it, but I've read the instructions posted in the other threads & its just not making sense, can someone explain it easier? ON how to put the clockworkmod image on a sd card, etc...?
Thanks!
1. Download Fastboot+ADB.zip
2. UNzip the file and copy the whole folder to C:\
3. Assuming the name of the Field u unzipped is "Fastboot+ADB", rename thsi folder to ADB (I only rename the folder for simplicity when enter the path in command promt) also do some reading on how to install ADB
4. Now go to Start> Run. enter CMD in RUN
5. that should open a command prompt defaulted to C:\ Documents and Settings \XXXX (your could have different path XXXX here is additional path)
6. Now in Command prompt change directory to ADB folder (if u renamed folder in step 3) or Fastboot+ADB(if u didnt rename folder in step 3)
you initial path would be C:\ Documents and Settings \XXXX (your could have different path XXXX here is additional path)
now change directory C:\ Documents and Settings \CD C:\ADB \tools (if u renamed folder in step 3) and hit enter
now change directory C:\ Documents and Settings \CD C:\Fastboot+ADB\tools(if u didnt rename folder in step 3) and Hit enter
7. now your path would be C:\ADB \tools
8. C:\ADB \tools fastboot.exe (hit enter, that should give some commands that u can use with fastboot ).
9.Copy the File Clockwork mod 5.0.2.7 recovery.img(rename this to recovery.img) and superuser7.zipon to root directory of the internal Streak 7
10. now get your streak into Fastboot mode (look at Setting up fastboot for Windows -XDA wiki)
11. Connect your streak to computer and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (sample what it looks like i command prompt C:\ADB \tools fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img) and hit enter
12. u should some messages on your streak something like writing recover.img(the process dosent take no longer than 1 min MAX)
13. now open the SDcarf slot cover and do reset pushing into the pinhole next to SD card reader. teh streak will be turned off and with thsi your device should be CMW enabled
Rooting:
1. assuming your device is turned off, get the device into recover mode (see wiki how to get streak into recovery) and select update from update.zip(user volume rocker to navigate up and won and power button to select )
2. then after quick 2 secs that should give additional options (cant recall options as I don't have my streak with me right now) select the option where it says like Internal memory and navigate to update.zip and select the file. process would run for quick min or so and now once u see the process has complete select option to reboot device and that's it u are done.
Move this to Generic section, should not be in DEV
Thanks for your help... It took me a bit... But it all worked out.. now to try some ICS...

I have Imilika's AOSP ICS ROM V6,
I changed the buid.prop
ro.sf.lcd_density=213
for tablet mode. after I reboot, my GNote is not booting. I cannot go to recovery mode or download mode.
Please help. I don't know what to do
Got it
OK, I was really sad about what happens to my phone, but finally I managed to fix it .
As I told you, my phone was not booting to recovery or download modes (key combinations not worked). finally I try to connect to PC via USB and luckily my PC could detect my phone . So i realized that the problem is the display not coming but phone is halfway booted.
So, I tried to change my build.prop via adb but failed due to cannot grant root permission (becoz display is off).
Finally I issue a adb commad to reboot in recovery mode.
"adb reboot recovery"
yeah, that command directly take me to the CWM recovery. then I flash AOSP v6 again.
Now, my phone is working again.
P.S. I just note this down for others if they get same problem future !

If you don't know what ADB is, you probably shouldn't be flashing so regularly. Anyway, ADB stands for "Android Debug Bridge" and it is a protocol for device control, development, and debugging.

adb is a connection type. we can run shell commands (in the phone), file transfer via adb by using our PC. for that we should have to enable usb debug mode in our mobile.
Actually you might used adb, when you root your phone in the first place . If you have CF-Root zip file, just extract it. you will see a folder called "files", in there you can see adb.exe .
If you need test run,
connect phone via USB(make sure you've enabled USB debug), open command prompt, navigate to that "files" directory.
run "adb shell ls" (to run "ls" command in phone)
run "adb push <anyfile in the PC> /system/sdcard/" (copy files from PC to sdcard)
like that
OK now I got it.. But why do we need to push some file like this when we are able to transfer files like mass storage??? Or what else can be done??? Sorry for the basic questions..

Download these files: http://d-h.st/RvD - call the unzipped folder with the four files 'android' or something and put it somewhere, either directly on your c:\ drive or on your desktop
Download a rom and put it in the folder along with those files you download
Select 'install zip from sideload' in recovery on your phone
Hold Shift and right-click on the folder and select 'Open Command Window Here'
Command:
adb sideload name_of_rom.zip
once it reaches 100% it should begin to install on your phone automatically.
Or you could
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
this will put the rom on your sdcard and you will need to flash it normally. (you don't select 'install zip from sideload' for this)

Did you type 'name_of rom.zip'? Or did you replace it with the actual name of the ROM?
Edit: Sorry, you need to put a space before /sdcard/

I typed the name of the rom......I'm going to update the drivers, because I'm seeing an error in device manager for the "android driver" .......

Ok let's make this easier. Go to where your ADB/fastboot files are, shift right click on empty space and select Open Command Window Here. Then type push name_of_rom.zip/sdcard/
name_of_rom.zip should be changed to whatever file name your ROM is that you want to install. If sdcard doesn't work, try /data/media

Are you right clicking on the folder and open command window here?
Reboot your computer...
Shift+right-click, Open command window from folder
Go into fastboot in your bootloader and type
fastboot devices
If your device appears then go into recovery and type
adb devices
If your devices doesn't appear then there's something wrong with your drivers/adb files or folder
If it's found then just do a push or sideload...
The only thing I can think if it doesn't work is buy a usb otg cable and put the ROM onto a usb and flash it through TWRP that way.

Ok, abd devices showed my device and "recovery" Went in and renamed the folder with adb and my ROM in it, double checked everything and was able to load the rom.......also I wasn't putting space after the rom name and between /sdcard/ ......
