{How to} Setup ADB

adb is just basically the connection between your phone and your computer in development mode.

First make sure you Java JDK installed, if not you can get it here > http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

Just follow the install prompts and you should be good.

Download and install the SDK for your system found here > http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

* Notice the Tools folder when you install the Android SDK, we'll come back to this later.

Download the USB drivers for the Behold II found here > http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CLKTRJI1

Turn on your Behold II, go to menu > settings > applications > and make sure USB debugging is checked

Also make sure USB storage is switched to PC Studio

Connect Behold II to your computer and it should bring up a "found new hardware" prompt.

- Select "Install from a list or specific location" and click "Next."
- Select "Search for the best driver in these locations"; un-check "Search removable media"; and check "Include this location in the search."
- Click "Browse..." and locate the folder where you copied the Behold II usb drivers.
- Click "Next" to install the drivers ( it should probably be 3 drivers, make sure you install them all)

*Note - this is for win XP, it might vary in some way according to your operating system but the premise is still the same.

Once your drivers are installed, open up your command prompt

What I do is go to Start > Run ... type in "cmd" and then press enter

Remember the tools folder? In command prompt you have to change drives to where your tools folder is located

When you type it in, It might look something like this

cd C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Desktop\android-sdk-windows\tools

type in "adb devices" and your phone should be displayed.

You're now connected with adb

for adb commands, you have to type "adb shell" to get access.
