First post updated with how to flash roms... Is this helping anyone? Worth keeping current, or just let it die?

If I am able to successfully issue adb commands when my phone is booted (e.g. my device appears when I enter "adb devices"), then my inability to achieve root is likely not due to a driver or SDK issue. Is this correct?
I have to fess up, never used it on the incredible, recommended it since it worked great on my moto droid back when I had it....
If someone tries it and it doesn't work, let me know and I'll remove it.
Thanks, and sorry

To the OP, in my sig is a guide I wrote for evo users, but a lot of the info might still be useful.
droid explorer will recognize my phone however it will not show the files on the phone, some other features do work, but for the priamary purpose of this program it does not work, i would take it down from the OP
wow dreamersipaq, this is awesome! i wish i had found this tutorial before i ventured the internets for all the steps individually, haha. i will start sending people here when they have questions. thank you for taking the time to do this!
one thing i would really like to know about is how to make (cook) a rom for the incredible. i am not sure if you have the knowledge of how to do that, but coming from the visual kitchens with winmo, i hate running pre cooked roms. really wanna cook my own again (probably the only thing i miss from winmo). and so far i have found very little, at least with regards to the incredible, about making a rom...
extremely useful thread. using it along with dreamsripaq's adb shell thread (finally buying a 4gb Kingston sd card was also important) has finally, after many spent hours, gotten me to where I can flash custom ROM's. thanks for the consolidation/creation of info!
let me just say, this guide, so far, is close to completely worthless.
Nothing is where the guide says it is
ADB doesn't see my device.
I have no idea what to do with the recovery thing I downloaded, it does nothing that the guide says it should. It doesn't unzip anything, I just get a big white window on my laptop, no idea what to do next.
I ended upgetting root by runnig unrevoked3, but I have no idea what parts of the guide I needed to follow or not, the "uninstall apps" section is worthless, really this thing reads like it was writen by a hyperactive 13 year old who forgot to take thier Ritalin. Can soone write a READABLE guide on how to get root and unintall apps?
One thing that isn't clear in the guide is what a nandroid backup actually covers.
My nandroid restore isn't working. I thought nandroid covers everything.
But what if I'm accidently running a different ROM, kernel or CWM? Maybe those need to be the same as the backup? This needs to be in the OP
p.s. the OP is the #1 google link for nandroid restore so it would be great to help everyone by updating some info in the thread... or even just the second post which has been reserved
