go here and download and install:

And while you are at it, you might as well install fastboot too.

HI , how can i do ADB Reboot for HTC EVO 4 for adb shell
Thanks
Uhh... adb shell reboot? that's it....
Or if you are already in the shell, reboot
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
It's just that easy
To clarify:
Code:
adb shell reboot
or
Code:
adb shell
reboot
or even
Code:
adb shell reboot recovery
That one will take you into the recovery environment.

just

or, to get into recovery
adb reboot recovery

Oops, my mistake. I knew that, too.

Which version of adb supports that? I'm using 1.0.20 and the command adb reboot just displays the command help.
good to know!

AFAIK, they all support it. the only reason i can think of that it wouldn't work would be if you haven't loaded the drivers for your device. does
Code:
adb devices
give you a response?
or, perhaps you need to update your sdk? i haven't had a problem with an android device yet, as long as i've kept the sdk updated, and my drivers functional.
of course, that means modifying my rules file on ubuntu, but i only have to do that once. had to do it for the nexus one, and for the evo, because the identifier tag is distinct for each...
on windows it needed drivers. on ubuntu it needed a rule made.
To answer my own question. ADB reboot did not work in version 1.0.20 that came with the android 1.5 sdk. I updated to the 2.2 SDK which includes ADB version 1.0.26. ADB reboot works with this version.
ok so i got the leaked ICS flashed on my device and I really like it!
so my question to you all is "what is next?" I am going to want to use cyanogen roms for this when he gets it out so what can I do to get ready to further prepare for that. Like I said all i did was flash ICS and lost root like supposed to. I have not gone in and added bootloader or nothing like that as I am not sure what to do first.
thanks in advance!

Factory reset your device, then:
- Root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531646
- Unlock the bootloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1557445
- Install CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1558595.

Install root explorer and try placing the attached file in the /system/bin/ folder (remove the ".c" file extension), then try updating it again.

Yes.
ok i got root and unlocked bootloader. I am now here
This is where it gets tricky download "url it wont let me post yet" for your OS and extract recovery_thor17_403.img to the root of your platform-tools folder for instance mine is C:\android-sdk\platform-tools
Once completed on your PC open a command prompt as an administrator and navigate to your platform-tools folder from cmd prompt e.g. cd c:\android-sdk\platform-tools and hit enter.
i followed the site dl what i needed but I dont have the c:\android-sdk\platform-tools on my pc anywhere. what do i need for it or is it on my tab.

This is for your PC. You do not necessarily need the android sdk for it to work. Just place the recovery image in a folder with adb.exe and fastboot.exe, open up a command prompt, then navigate to that folder.

Hi, I'm trying to follow theinstructions here:

I have the SDK installed, the phone is rooted, CYGWIN is installed, etc. But I cannot get ADB to work in Cygwin. It doesn't respond as a command even though I know that the phone can connect using adb. Do you have any suggestions?

Why do you try adb in cygwin? Cygwin doesn't use the cmd of windows so adb won't work.

You can use adb to push a rom file to you phone storage. I found this link that should help you http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-tutorials/how-to-copy-files-to-htc-one-using-twrp-mount-and-adb/

What is your PC's OS.. Where did you get adb and fastboot??

Fastboot/adb

My PC's OS is windows 7 home premium service pack 1. the fastboot was unlocked through the firewater method. if you mean the android-sdk tools i got them here
developer.android.com/sdk/index.html?utm_source=weibolife
the fastboot still seems to work as i tried re-flashing TWRP. it was successful. but it still just seems to stay stuck at "Starting ADB sideload feature..."

Ok do this move everything from the folder platform-tools should be fastboot.exe and adb.exe and a few other files to the root of your c drive....
than open your CMD window as admin... make sure you open as admin... than type
Code:
cd /
to move to the root of you c dirve and then type
Code:
adb
let me know the out come of that....
