Make sure you are in fastboot mode first by running the command:

Code:

adb reboot-bootloader

Then once in fastboot mode re-run the command you were trying to run.

HTC one X - brick ( not powering)

will I be able to use this tool while my HTC one x is not powering !!

what i think is that my HTC boot-load file needs to be re-installed, any step by step instruction is appreciated..!

I have been searching through the forum but did not succeed to finde anything that might be of help.

( what i have tried : Hard reset, normal Rest, normal powering... In wall or PC charger more than 5 hours... none of these works..... )

while in charger no light is on and will not power.

Any ideas ( dont suggest to visit HTC dealer as there is no warranty now).

thanks in advance ppl.

To answer your question about my tool, the tool will not work if the device isn't powered on as it needs to communicate with the Android Debugging Bridge (ADB) or Fastboot mode in order to function. If you can't acess either ADB or Fastboot because the device won't power on then the tool will not work. Unfortunately, if your device is not powering on at all, no charging LED is coming on, and if you go to power your device on and it doesn't vibrate, then I'm afraid you have hard bricked your device and JTAG repair would be your best option since you said you have no warranty. For the JTAG repair I would recommend checking out this guide for JTAG repair on the HTC ONE X.

Hi Shimp, great tool, very handy. :good:

Will you be updating the app whenever there are new fastboot/adb versions released?

How can I push a ROM using this tool so that I can flash?
I experienced a random reboot that wiped all my data this morning and I cannot RUU- I cannot side load- so this is my last option...

I also tried Quich push and it did not work...

You can try pushing a ROM to your device by first opening up a command window where you installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot too. Next, run the following command:

Code:

adb push ROM.zip /mnt/sdcard/ROM.zip

The ROM should now be on your sdcard you can then boot into the custom recovery you are running and flash the ROM you pushed to your sdcard.

Version 1.1.2 Released

Version 1.1.2 Released

I have updated Minimal ADB and Fastboot to include the creation of a desktop icon, start menu folder shortcut, and quick launch icon (All of which are optional) that when selected will automatically navigate to the directory you installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot to and open a command window for you to issue ADB and Fastboot commands. For example if you installed the tool to "D:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot" clicking on the shortcut would automatically open a command prompt window in the "D:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot" directory which would then enable you to easily issue commands. Thank you for all the continued support

Thank you for this easy tool. I just achieved S-Off for my HTC DNA and this was very simple and helpful.

:highfive:

Tried installing this on a friend's machine who is ruinning Vista 32bit and the exe installed but when came time to ruin it it said it wasn't "designed" for this operating system.

Does it only work for Windows 7 and beyond?

I haven't tested it on Vista as I don't have access to a machine running Vista (Or a virtual machine of Vista), technically it should work for XP and up. What you can do since it you said it installed is navigate to manually navigate to the directory where you installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot to then right click from within that directory select "open command window here". Once the command window opens you should be all set to run commands. Let me know if you still need help or have any more questions

Am using a new Win 8 laptop. The program installs fine but won't run. I get "path_cmd.exe has stopped working" message. From file Explorer I can Shift and click to open a cmd window from the install folder and ADB commands all work fine with my phone doing it that way.

Do you have an idea of how I should get your app working properly please?

I recommend running the program as administrator and if that doesn't work try running it in compatibility mode as Windows 7. Also what are you running 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 8? A couple of other people have mentioned it's working fine on 64-bit Windows 8 Pro, because I don't have a copy of Windows 8 I unfortunately can't test it myself on Widows 8. Let me know how the above suggestions work and I can try and help you work through it

Thank you. Sadly I have now tried all your suggestions with no joy. Am on Win 8 64bit.

your install runs fine though and adb has no problem finding my phone. nice package anyway. You can just open a command prompt to the window by going to the install dir and holding shift down, right click and select open command prompt here. Then you can adb away. Thanks for the package. I HAAATTEE downloading the entire android sdk and I just rebuilt my system 2 days ago, so you are SAVIORS!!!

Version 1.1.3 Released

Minimal ADB and Fastboot has been updated to fix a bug that was causing a force close problem for users with the desktop shortcut on Windows 8 and 8.1. And as always thanks you for all the constructive feedback and awesome support
