Well first off I assume the proper drivers are installed? It looks as if your computer isn't detecting your phone

Should I reinstall android sdk?

Well an easy way to check is by typing adb devices and a bunch of numbers should come up saying that you're attached. If not then you may need to reinstall the proper drivers (don't need to reinstal sdk)

I reinstall sdk and run the cmd adb device and all I got is a bunch of adb device command

yes it looks like the drivers are fine and your computer is seeing your phone no problem.
this is the same proses i used to root my rogers dream and i dint have any issues.
by looking at the pictures you attached did you put exploid and amonra in the same folder as adb is in?

"Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB"
Why: Your computer has detected your phone but as a protable device and as a storage device.
Fix: This took me a lot of research and time to figure out so this is what your are going to do.
First download USBDeview - Here
Unzip it
Run USBDeview.exe as Administrator
You will see all drivers being used on your computer
Highlight and Uninstall all drivers with the description have HTC Android (Should be 3 of them)
Right Click on the driver and press uninstall
Once done, Unplug your phone and plug it back in
You should now get the notification of the ADB device
Follow the steps above to install the drivers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Typing just adb in cmd you will get whats called a "usage doc" which gives you a lits of commands that you can use:
Code:
-d - directs command to the only connected USB devic

i have attached a zip that has the files i use to get basic use like for doing root to stock to upgrading 2.1-2.2 and other small things.
extract to C:\fastboot
in C:\fastboot you will find a "cmd" batch file. just run it and it should be ready for you to type in adb commands or fastboot. just make sure your in debug mode by doing all in the first post for installing drivers and all that.

Trying to flash a rom on my phone (x10) and was making sure adb is working properly before i do anything. When flashing the new rom there's some bugs that require adb to fix. From my understanding "$" means i don't have su access. Thanks for the help btw. Sorry for bothering you. Just taking proper precautions.
EDIT
Sorry again. Found my answer. I forgot to unlock my device to accept superuser permissions. Thanks for your help
to check ur phone is detected by adb....
i type "adb shell" in cmd,and according 2 u i should show #.....but it shows $ to me......why?
To check connection, type "adb devices"
"adb shell" will allow you to work remotely on your device. If the $ doesn't change to #, then you don't have root access.

Onemsomic's ICS 3.1RC no GPS lock!

I wanted to ask this in the actual thread but 10 post limit...
Anyway,
I can't get any GPS lock on my I9000, Onemsomic's ICS RC3.1, JVU modem.
I tried changing the NetworkLocation.apk by following this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21351809#post21351809
but since I have absolutely no idea how to use ADB I couldn't do the "change mode to 0644" step.
Someone help a noob?
Thanks.
Well, first off, download the *.apk provided in that post and place it on the sdcard.
adb is a command line tool, so you must insert those commands on a terminal emulator (maybe you got one installed, if not, download one from the market, I can recommend "Android Terminal Emulator").
So, open your terminal emulator and go to the directory where you placed your *.apk. this example has been wrote with the *.apk in the sdcard folder:
Code:
su
cd /mnt/sdcard
adb start-server
adb remount
adb push NetworkLocation.apk /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb chmod 0644 /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb reboot
Note: I wrote this example following my common sense, so I'm not completely sure if this will work!
Cheers!

Well I have been looking here and there, and I found that adb doesn't work directly on the phone, you must use adb from your pc. So, this is what you should do from now on:
Install Java SDK
Install Android SDK
Turn on "USB Debugging" in your SGS settings
Connect the Device to the PC
And finally, use the following commands (from the PC):
Code:
// Go to the folder where you put the *.apk
cd C:\users\exampleuser\Documents\ // or /home/exampleuser/Documents/ if you're using linux
adb start-server
adb remount
adb push NetworkLocation.apk /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb chmod 0644 /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb reboot
Note:
The text after the double-slash ( // ), must not be written in the console, they are just comments
You need to install the SDK's because there it is where the adb tool (and tools needed by adb) is found, so, good luck!

As promised, this post describes how to root the Atrix HD Jelly Bean build. This should also work on other Motorola 4.1.2 builds (Razr/Razr Maxx, Razr HD, Razr M, etc.).
The exploit requires setting up a special Samba share and mounting this share on your phone using the File Manager app. I apologize that this process may seem involved for some of you, and request that members of this community help each other out if some of you are having problems completing the procedure. I'm not able to provide individual tech support to every user who wants to root this phone.
The following instructions require a working Linux installation. The following instructions are for Ubuntu. If you don't want to install Ubuntu permanently on your machine, I suggest using a LiveCD installation. Instructions on setting this up are described here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD#How-To_LiveCD_Ubuntu
Once you're booted into Ubuntu, open a terminal. Create a new directory for your Samba share:
Code:
mkdir /tmp/share
Next, install the samba package:
Code:
sudo apt-get install samba
Edit the configuration file for samba:
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
Add the following lines to the end of the configuration file and save your changes:
Code:
[share]
path = /tmp/share
available = yes
valid users = guest
read only = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
Close the text editor once you've saved your changes.
Next, create a user for the Samba share by typing in the terminal:
Code:
sudo useradd guest -m -G users
Set a password for the new user. Remember this password:
Code:
sudo passwd guest
Provide a password here and press enter. You won't see the characters you're typing, so be careful.
Next, set a password on the share. Use the same password you just provided:
Code:
sudo smbpasswd -a guest
Type the password you created before and press enter.
Next, restart the Samba server:
Code:
sudo restart smbd
Finally, download and prepare the required files to the Samba share:
Code:
cd /tmp/share
wget [url]http://vulnfactory.org/public/motoshare.tgz[/url]
tar xvf motoshare.tgz
sudo chown root:root pwn
sudo chmod 6755 pwn
At this point, you'll need to know the IP address of your Linux host, which you can get by running "ifconfig" from your terminal (it should be of the form "192.168.x.x").
Next, move over to your Android device. Ensure you have enabled USB Debugging Mode (under Settings -> Development Settings). Ensure your device is connected via Wifi.
Open the "File Manager" app, and select "Remote storage". Click "Add storage", and fill in fields as follows:
Code:
Host IP address: [your Linux machine's IP address]
Domain name: WORKGROUP
Shared folder name: share
User: guest
Password: [the password you created above]
At this point, the phone will mount your Linux share. To complete the process, plug in your phone via USB to your Linux machine, and type the following in your Linux terminal:
Code:
sudo /tmp/share/adb kill-server
sudo /tmp/share/adb shell /storage/rfs0/pwn
If it's successful, this should print "[+] Rooting complete!".
Finally, install Supersu by typing the following in the terminal:
Code:
sudo /tmp/share/adb install /tmp/share/eu.chainfire.supersu.apk
Congratulations, enjoy your rooted device.
I can't stress this enough: I can't provide individualized tech support for everyone on this forum. Please help each other.

Why would anyone even attempt to use a VM for this simple root method? You could've been rooted already if you had just followed the instructions.
Same problem here. I couldn't get past the adb kill-server command. It would tell me there is no such directory. If any one can get past this can someone please tell me what they did to get past it.

Does the root method have anything to do with having android sdk and ndk on your system? Im thinking thats what it is now. Would i have to have linux sdk to run with terminal root or windows sdk?

No, you don't need the Android SDK/NDK, since I included a copy of ADB in the tarball file that you extracted to /tmp/share.
What's the output of "ls -l /tmp/share/adb" on your Linux machine?
I had to re-flash official JB firmware in RSD Lite before the exploit would work. Before that, the Exploit would return "Root Complete", but there was no root access (though I could su to # in adb). I run Ubuntu 12.04 x64 at work already with Windows in VirtualBox.
RSD Lite doesn't seem to want to complete a flash in the Windows VMs I run in VirtualBox at work, so I waited until I got home and used my Windows 8 Pro machine to RSD the phone with the official JB firmware. I run Ubuntu 12.04 in a VirtualBox on that machine already, so after the RSD flash, I ran the exploit from that VM - BINGO - worked on the first try.
Failing other options, you might want to try re-flashing JB in RSD Lite and running the exploit on a fresh device.
I used the firmware in this thread (To fix the issue the thread is about):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2057078
If you decide to try that, Be SURE to get the firmware zip AND THE XML and replace the XML before flashing!!

1 Yes this is normal until you change it.
2 For me, s-off then you can always relock the bootloader without htc knowing you have ever unlocked it for warranty purposes.
3 Both do the same thing so personal preference. I used revone which was very easy but cannot comment on revolutionary as I have not tried it.

If we relocked the bootloader, it will show 'relocked' instead of 'locked' right?

That is only if you do it with the instructions on HTCDEV. With S-OFf you can relock and it will show LOCKED.

There is an ADB command to change it to 'locked' instead of 'relocked'. It's mentioned in revone's thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314582
I used revone to S-OFF and it was quite easy.
Code:
./revone -l

1 Yes this is normal until you change it.
2 For me, s-off then you can always relock the bootloader without htc knowing you have ever unlocked it for warranty purposes.
3 Both do the same thing so personal prefierence. I used revone which was very easy but cannot comment on revolutionary as I have not tried it.

1. I saw other devices pictures which showed CID in bootloader mode, and also my previous HTC OneX had such information available.
2. I'be read somewhere users having issues with S-Off with HTC one. Previously I had Inc S and I S-Off it using revolutionary.
Thanks.

Uncheck in settings/energy/fastboot and close (at the bottom). That may help.

You have to close sync manager (best is to uninstall except the drivers).

There is a problem with your drivers somehow, go to device manager in windows and delete the phone from the list. Reboot the pc and try again.

"adb push" command is not shell command!
you need type: adb push revone /data/local/tmp/ before you entered into shell by "adb shell".
1) adb push revone /data/local/tmp/
2) adb shell
3) and so on..

"C:\fastboot>cd /data/local/tmp" What is it??? You need here to specify a way to yours adb.exe file.
if youer adb.exe in c:\fastboot folder you need
1) c:\fastboot> adb shell
2) [email protected]:/ $ cd /data/local/tmp
3) [email protected]:/ $ chmod 755 revone
4) and so on ..regarding s-off thread

[GUIDE] Obtaining S-OFF on Sprint HTC One HBOOT 1.57

I had some trouble getting S-OFF using HBOOT 1.57, and I finally got it. Here is what I did in hopes someone may find it useful:
Before you Begin:
If you get stuck at the white HTC Logo when booting or you get "Process com.htc.dialer isn't responding" at any point in this guide, or even before it, you are likely missing your Radio. (I don't know exactly how this happens, but it apparently does sometimes.) I had this problem once, and flashing the latest radio from here in recovery fixed it.
Steps:
Flash this ROM. (Other ROMs may work, but this one gave me no trouble at all)
Flash this Kernel. <-- Important! Firewater will fail if you don't do this!
Follow the Firewater Instructions to obtain S-OFF. It should work the very first time. (Use the "normal, rooted device method" set of instructions.)
You should now be S-OFF! After this, you can proceed to flash your favorite ROMs Kernels, and HBOOTs. If you would like to downgrade to HBOOT 1.44 (I did), you can find the files here.
Please post if this works for you or if you need help. Thanks to all the developers who made this possible!
Thank you very so much
thank you very much you helped me save my htc was like brick but since I got resurrect from your guide

Hi, what specific ROM and Kernel version did you use to get Firewater to work? I have flashed rom Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_Sense_6_v1.0 and Kernel ElementalX-sprint-m7-13.1 but USB debugging is not working and Firewater is not working properly, I am guessing its a kernel issue. I leave everything on default while installing Kernel thru TWRP. Can you confirm? I appreciate the help

Yes, I did fastboot devices and I got the device listed there. Although I could see that in the phone it does not appear the 4 bars of USB debugging. I had it checked in the Dev Options. When I do the same with the stock 4.4.2 I do get those 4 bars and the indication that the USB debugging is active.

Yes it gets recognized. But when I turn on the phone and try to run the firewater commands it does nothing. No error nor the prompt of the disclaimer. I thought I better asked you and see if you have any idea of what could be wrong.

Yeah. I just booted to fastboot to check the drivers. When I push the firewater file I get success. Its just the last command that does no action.

Hi. I meant adb devices. And I was wondering how do I check the file permissions. Can I try to copy firewater with a root file manager ? Thank you
This is what I get in adb
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb wait-for-device push firewat
er /data/local/tmp

chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/firewater

/data/local/tmp/firewater

After this, there is no action from firewater. I should get a warning prompt, but I don't.

Are you doing adb reboot before doing adb wait-for-device? Also make sure that your device has no lock mechanism enabled (pattern lock etc).

I do, this is what I found weird. Screenshot 1 is stock rom 4.4.2 and it says USB debugging enabled. Screenshot 2&3 is Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_Sense_6_v1.0 ROM with its default kernel, it shows no USB debugging enabled even when its selected
