A couple of updates since this video was made: 1. As of October 2017, entering the "./fastboot" command will give you this message: fastboot: usage: no command That means everything is working fine! If you'd like to see the fastboot help screen that is shown in the video, enter: ./fastboot -h 2. MacOS no longer uses Bash, so the bash profile no longer works. There is however a simple solution, to replace the text "bash_profile" with "zshenv" So, the first line of code becomes this instead: touch ~/.zshenv; open ~/.zshenv

Found this video and then followed your recommended videos at the end to get through this all the way to getting a rom installed. Perfect. Great no BS tutorial, with all the steps needed explained and shown clearly, really thank you!

Great tutorial, super easy to follow! Thank you!

I've litterally watched this video over 100 times. Awesome video! Just helps me out real quick!

Awesome dude! It worked for me :D

Great tutorial! Simple and easy to follow! Thank You!

You nailed it. Fast and to the point. Thanks!

Good video man! Helped a lot and just what I needed!

You don't know how much thankful I am to you! So my pixel 2 never receives updates over the air, god knows why! and I've been borrowing windows laptops from people every month just to update my phone to the latest version. Windows tutorial I found so that was the only way I could do. But today I again tried my luck and came across your videos. And I have setup adb, updated my phone and just realising that how much easy it was on my mac comparing to windows. Just only if I would've found your videos earlier. I am so grateful to you! Thanks a lot for this informative video. Really appreciated! Keep making good stuff like these. Cheers!! :)

NOTE: As of October 2017, entering the "./fastboot" command will give you this message: fastboot: usage: no command That means everything is working fine! If you'd like to see the fastboot help screen that is shown in the video, enter: ./fastboot -h

Hi! Thanks for the awesome video. I'd like to know how to install adb and fastboot on Mac OS Catalina! I've tried just as you mentioned here. It worked on Sierra and High Sierra. But it does not work on Mojave and Catalina. Please help!

Brilliant Video, just managed to update my Pixel 5a on Android 13 after faffing around with Microsoft for 4 hours. One important message my Android folder was opening on zsh on Terminal, so if someone is having the same issue you can change it to Bash in order for adb to be permanent. In the Terminal app on your Mac, choose Terminal > Preferences, then click General. Under “Shells open with”, select “Command (complete path)”, then enter the path to the shell you want to use.

hi, can this, ADB, bypass locks (pattern, PIN, Password and other locks) in a oneplus nord device?

Excellent video!

I get the following line when I type the adb command zsh: segmentation fault adb. What does this mean? I have an M1 MacBook Pro

When I enter command ./adb it says Segmentation fault: 11. What I have done wrong?

Hi great video, it worked for me ! Also got the fastboot: usage: no command message. so I hope it works !

You are genius , thanks a lot Sir !

Thanks a ton dude!

when i quit terminal and reopen and type adb it gives me no command. how do i get it to work so i dont have to point terminal to the adb path?

how do i uninstall android apps after installing ads and fast boot on mac?

SUCCESS! Thank you very much!

hey man you are the best!!!

Thanks for a clear and concise video, I appreciate everything getting described in layman's terms. I have a problem maybe you can help me with. I can''t run adb and fast boot. I get an illegal action when I get up to the point of inputting the command. I suspect it's because I have an old Mac running OS X 10.6.8. Is there a work around, or do I have to wait until I buy a new machine. Thanks again, Paul

@HowToTechVids

Unfortunately it seems your system isn't supported by ADB and Fastboot. I think the only work around is to wait till you have access to a newer machine. Sorry Paul!

hi i am using catalina 10.15.7 i followed the same steps but i am getting fastboot: usage: no command this

Thanks, dude!

Thank you in the last when write adb : command not found

Hey bro so I tried doing it with my Mac but its not working for me. It keeps telling me no such file or directory. What should I do?

mac is throwing an error that "ADB cant be opened because it was not downloaded from the app store?

fastboot not installing telling me that their is no command like ./fastboot

again best explanation)))))))))

Very nice method :D and also permanent very good video

Thanks a lot!

Thank you very much

Thanks a lot man, I do not have to install parallel desktop anymore.

nothing works :'( It just says that this method is depreceated in the terminal and to use the android studio :S

It says permission denied when i try to run adb from the terminal

Why does it say no command like bro everytime i watch a tutorial its always one thing that does not work or is diffrent from the video am watch like omg why

This is brilliant! Much obliged! :) Worked great. ADB works no problem, tried fastboot but wondering if it'll be the same or no? Still brilliant thanks :)

thank you man

Try this: - Go to your Applications folder and find Terminal in the Utilities folder - Do a control+click on Terminal and select Duplicate - Rename the second Terminal application as "Terminal (x86)" - Do a control click on Terminal (x86) and select Get Info - Under the General section, click the box that says "Open using Rosetta" and close the Info window Use your new Terminal (x86) app for the process in the video. Let me know if this works!

Hi,,, good tutorial... is there a way to use mac for unlocking bootloader of redmi note 4, using MIFlash unlock App, which is available for windows OS. I don't have access to windows pc for unlocking the phone's bootloader, which will be required before I can use your method to flash ROM.

You could try using Wine or Wine Bottler to run MiFlash. You can find Wine Bottler here: winebottler.kronenberg.org/ If that doesn't work you could also run Windows as a virtual machine or set up a dual boot installation of Windows with Bootcamp.

I am trying to root my droid turbo xt1254 with the mcg24.251-5-5 build number, so i am having to go through extra steps to root my phone. I have watched both of your videos, but my phone is still locked. i have tried to get an unlock code from motorola, but everytime i go through the command prompt to get the code to send to motorola it gives me a failed error. The command is supposed to be fastboot oem get_unlock_data and i have tried different variances of it with no luck. Any thoughts or suggestions?

I believe you have a Verizon phone which doesn't have a factory unlockable bootloader. Check the forums at xda-developers.com for instructions on how to unlock your bootloader.

Joder no entiendo una papa de ingles pero es el unico video que me ayudo, FANTASTICO!!

I can't get this to work. ./adb works ./fastboot -h works But when I try and put the galaxy s7 (exynos) into "fastboot" (download) mode, and then connect it to computer only the ./adb commands work. i.e.: " ./adb devices " works, but no fastboot commands work. adb can't communicate with the phone while the phone is in "download mode". I can't unlock bootloader or access it using terminal/adb. Any suggestions? Also, is just entering bootloader mode going to wipe my data? Thanks!.

If you can still see what's on the screen you may be able to control it with a USB mouse and an adapter. If you can't see the screen, some phones do have USB to HDMI output to plug into a monitor or TV.

Fastboot was updated after making this video and now that actually means fastboot is loading up - it's simply telling you that no fastboot command was run. To get the results seen in the video you now need to run "./fastboot -h" without the quotes.

Says "Command not found" after I reopened the terminal at the last step...
