how to find ADB Shell using CMD command

Step 1: Download the Android SDK (direct link)

android sdk

Make a folder on the root of your 'c' drive named android (mine is c:\androidSDK and is the path Ill use in this guide). Extract the contents of the zip file then navigate through the extracted file 1 level until you see the following files: add-ons, platforms, tools, SDK readme, and SDK setup. Copy all those files into the c:\androidsdk folder.

Step 2: Connecting to and testing the ADB shell connection. 

On your epic 4g navigate to: settings>applications>developement and select usb debugging as this allows for the shell to interface with your phone. Plug in your epic with the usb cable provided with your phone and wait for drivers to load. Then on your computer hit start and type "cmd" (without quotes) in the search box (vista/7) or select run and type cmd (XP) then hit enter. You now have a virtual MS DOS window open type the following (each line is its own command and hit enter after typing each line):

cd\
cd androidsdk\tools
adb devices

This should come up with your devices serial number and show that the connection is ready to be initiated. 

step 4: Running the ADB shell

Make sure your phone is in USB debugging mode, connected to your pc and open a virtual dos window again: hit start and type "cmd" (without quotes) in the search box (vista/7) or select run and type cmd (XP) then hit enter. Type the following to enter the ADB shell (each line is its own command and hit enter after typing each line):

cd\
cd androidsdk\tools
adb shell

You should now see a "$" (no quotes) and that signifies that you have the adb shell up and running. Congratulations! you're now able to issue commands to your phone over your PC. This shell is the interface where one click roots and such are done. Now you are able to root your phone. Good luck!

**Disclaimer** I do not accept responsibility for rooting and bricking your phone by issuing the wrong commands.
