1) Install Java JDK :-Before installing the Android SDK, you’ll have to install Oracle’s Java development kit. You can download it from here...(click me !!)
Even if you already have the Java runtime (JRE) installed, you’ll need to install the JDK as well.

}
After installing Java JDK , you can now download the Android SDK from Google .
NOTE:- If you see a any type of Java-related error during installation, then download and install the x86 version of the JDK, not the x64 one ..

2) Installing android SDK:-Download Android SDK from here...(click me !!!)
After clicking on "DOWNLOAD FOR OTHER PLATFORMS" , you will get an extended menu ..
After downloading the .exe file , then Double click on the .exe file and install it in C:\ Drive or on whichever drive you wanna install .

3) Android SDK Setup
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Once the Android SDK is downloaded and installed, launch the SDK Manager application from your Start menu.
Enable the Android SDK tools and SDK Platform-tools checkbox and click the Install button. This downloads and installs the platform-tools package, which contains ADB and other utilities.
After installing these packages , Go to the place where you installed ANDROID SDK . IN MY CASE , IT IS :-
Code:
C:\Program files(x86)l\Android\android-sdk\tools
If you used a different install location, you’ll find DDMS in the tools directory,inside your ANDROID-SDK directory .....
MOST IMPORTANT :- To DDMS with your device , you must Enable USB DEBUGGING and you install your device driver's
1) you must enable USB debugging on it. You’ll find this option under Developer Options on your device’s Settings screen

2)You must install your device drivers :- Individual OEM USB drivers for windows are available for each manufacturer and are listed in the official document ..
After you have downloaded you device drivers, then we have to install on our pc. for that :-
a) connect the device to the computer
b) right click on MY COMPUTER and click manage
c) go to devices > other devices and right click on device and select update driver software.
d) you should see an option to " BROWSE MY COMPUTER FOR DRIVER SOFTWARE" , which you nedd to click on and point to the location of your device driver installation file..
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To test whether DDMS is working properly, connect your Android device to your computer using a USB cable
..Now it will show the devices connected ..
Now that you have sucessfully installed DDMS and now we are good to go further..
NOW GO TO ANDROID FOLDER AND OPEN TOOLS
2)NOW RUN MONITOR.bat AS ADMINISTRATOR
3)NOW ANDROID DEBUG MONITOR WILL APPEAR ..
TIME TO TAKE A SCREENSHOT....
Troubleshooting ;-
sometimes it will not recognize a Device in recovery mode..So in this case ,either uninstall your device drivers and then reinstall it OR refresh your device list in the DDMS device panel..... GOOD LUCK TAKING A SCREENSHOT :fingers-crossed:
I am not from this section..just waned to share my guide in your section..heres a link to my original guide.... link = click me...!!
Thank you,

Why is this program making registry edits to my computer. Seems it is trying to gain internet access for some reason? changing proxy settings and other protected registry settings?
Need to know before allowing it to do these things.
program needs access to windows registry only to associate apk files, and internet access to checking update.

Windows: execute start.bat
Dev notes
Full Unlock,
it was pretty easy, everyone used stupids toolkit that may work or not. Adb and fastboot are the most useful and powerful tools.
I've changed the order to unlock device that everyone used. Why first root, then recovery and then bootloader?? Do you need the keys to change a car engine? Nope, so it's the same thing for an android device. Fist I boot a recovery to get adb root (stock kernel doesn't allow it, but a recovery automatically give adb root acces even if phone is not rooted), then I'll push file to unlock bootloader to sdcard and then unlock it. After this I flash recovery, then flash any root package. Done! And it works with any rom.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
About Lg L3 II,
apparently this device has no bootloader to imput fastboot commands needed for the full unlock, read notes inside bat file
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
About Lg L3,
this is the only device I own of the four I support... Now there's no recovery that allow both adb shell and sideload so I've to push every file to sdcard. When there will be a recovery where both adb shell and sideload are working I'll change a few lines of code and it will be OK.

About Crazy Mode,
it's made for crazy users that may brik their devices and make strange things with their pc. When crazy mode is enabled there's no way to quit it and it may lag your pc like hell (until reboot) so you won't be able to do anything because you're crazy and you may destroy something.

Seems so good!
Well I guess I need to run su before i execute it on unix because of the permission errors I get , it will work fine I guess
If you need any help or testing for Unix , message me on Hangouts

Required:
3 USB Flash Drive
Make a bootable USB with Windows 8 (in case that something goes wrong). Make sure that the bootable USB is working: shutdown your Vaio Duo 11 and press the Assist key (next to volume key) and choosing form the menu the option Recover or maintain your system (if everything is ok, it will start Windows installation so you can press long the Power button, remove this USB and start Windows to continue with next two USB)
Make a bootable USB with Android
On this USB you will install Android (it should be at least 16GB storage and I recommend to be an USB 3)
[*]EaseUS Partition Master from here
Win32DiskImager from here
Latest version of the Android-x86 from here
Preparing Guide:
Insert the 3rd USB in your PC
Open EaseUS Partition Master and format the 3rd USB to ext3 and set it as primary
Remove the 3rd USB
Insert the 2nd USB in your PC
Open Win32DiskImager, choose the Android-x86 image, on Device choose the 2nd USB, press Write and wait till the Progress is done
Shutdown your PC
Press Assist button and go to bios and disable Secure Boot and change the boot mode from UEFI to Legacy
Save changes and Shutdown
Install Guide:
Press Assist button and "Start from media" (you need to have inserted the 2nd USB)
It will start "Android-x86 Live & Installation CD"
Choose "Installation – Install Android-x86 to harddisk"
Now you have to insert the 3rd USB and press "Detect devices" (pay attention on what devices appear because you will have to choose this one)
Choose the device that appear when you inserted the 3rd USB (if you are not sure is better to write down all the devices and when you will insert the 3rd USB you will see clearly the new device and if you want, you can ask me which one is the right one)
When it ask you to format, choose “Do not format”
“Do you want to install Grub” choose Yes
“Do you want to install /system directory as read/write?” choose Yes
“Android-x86 is install successfully” choose Reboot
When your PC is rebooting, remove the 2nd USB
It will start the boot loader Gnu Grub were you choose Android-x86 4.4-r1
Note:
The first time when boot Android-x86 it will take a longer time
Auto Rotate doesn't work, but you can search on Google Play the word "Rotate" and you can install the first app
Thanks to saary

Will this work on the Duo 13? I have one and although I think I have plenty enough Android devices (especially with Xperia Z2 tablet), it should work the same way since they're almost the same except under the hood, right?

Hi, i want to unlock the bootloader of my old Redmi note 5, but there's a problem, when I go into fastboot mode, the Xiaomi's software can't find it, even using ADB the device is impossible to find. If I turn it on normally i can find it. Why it happens?
Hey u may give this a try as based on my understanding Xiomi devices will require u to install mi flashtool on PC as it has driver installation option. Remember some times you are required to disable driver signature verification.
I recently had trouble with fastboot as well. I eventually sorted it by installing the correct drivers, from here: http://bigota.d.miui.com/tools/xiaomi_usb_driver.rar
I don't remember having to disable driver signature enforcement (usually to do this you have to use an advanced boot option as shown in Option 2 here) but maybe it happened automatically.
