You need to give more information. What exactly can't you do? What steps have you tried and what steps can't you do? Screen shots of the errors you are getting?
I'm a little surprised...you've been able to do the first part of Toast's root hack, but now when attempting the second part (unlocking NAND), you're unable to do anything with ADB? How can this be, when the first part of Toast's root method requires you to use a couple of ADB commands? What have you done since then that might have caused this to happen??
If you're experiencing problems, you should; 1) Download the latest the Android SDK and delete the old one, 2) Check your cable, and 3) Make sure the drivers are detecting the phone properly.
i used the unrevoked method
I have never used adb

One click method? Never seen that for the slide. I used Eugenes method to root which is in the slide Rom bible and so far I've been able to root all 3 slides Ive ended up with very easily. You will have to use command prompt on ur computer but if u watch the video its really not hard at all. This is my.first android phone and it was simple for me so try it out an let us know.

go with exploid
I agree with whgarner, I used the exploid method and that was fast and efficient
I used this method and strongly recommend it: HTC Slide root guide from cyanogenmod
The guide assumes that you have already setup Android SDK on your computer and that you have installed the correct drivers for your phone so if you have'nt done that already you will need to, as all the methods I have seen so far for the Slide require ADB. Lemme know if you got any questions.

First off thanks for your response,
Im assuming that this guide works with the latest OTA.. btw can you contact me on gtalk? [email protected] (for quick response support) i just wanna make sure my wife gets her phone back asap. That way if i hit any walls i can get over them quickly and efficiently..
thanks again..

[Q] Rooting this device

Hello Everyone. Im receiving my slide tomorrow and you already know i must root this (been a g1 user with root for 2 years now). But as i see, rooting this device isn't like a G1 and this involves ALOT of adb work which in my situation kind of sucks because my windows vista fails and wont boot and im stuck on ubuntu and my adb on ubuntu is kind of crazy (doesn't adb push anything and it doesn't seem like all the adb commands even work.. only thing that seems to work is getting an logcat) and all rooting methods involve using windows. I don't know which version my slide is going to come with i dunno if its going to have the OTA update or not already preinstalled because if it does i can't use the linux simpleroot by eugene and wesgarner because it requires you to be on the stock firmwire. Also from researching i see hardly anyone can revert back to the stock firmwire. So any suggestions? I hate being on Stock.. Alot lol

ADB for Desire HD - Very confused

Hey guys,
I am very confused about this whole ADB business. After plugging in my phone in development mode, it says "ADB - No driver found".
All the guides around refer to the G1, and I cannot get this to work. It is driving me up the wall!
I run Windows 7 x64. Any help would be great!

Ok, after looking through many guides, I have FINALLY managed to get ADB for my phone.
Can u describe how you did it? I recently installed the SDK and had major problems with the driver for development. I was trying to flash my radio. I have sorted it out now. If u want me to describe what I did then let me know.

First thing I need is to find a decent method eveything I've tired so far does not work. The most of them have been one-click methods so maybe thats the issue. What would you suggest?
i thought the root without a pc method was the easiest for me. i cheated and used a computer to move files over but i didnt really have too much trouble with it. i had a cliq before and could just do the one click method for rooting so i didnt have much experience beforehand.
