Ok I'm a noob about this so be gentle. I wanted to upgrade my Tattoo but I've encoutered several problems.

First I tried to root my phone, after few tries I decided to do that with Universal Androot. That part went well.
Then I've downloaded and installed Eclipse, SDK starter package and ATD plug-in, and conifigured it all by instructions I've found here. But I stucked at step 15. When I type adb devices in command promt I get this: 'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. That means what, that I didn't do somethine right during the installation or configuration? I did everything by instructions. So I went to step 17.,

17. Open the Device Manager.
  • Right-click on My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Windows Vista/7).
  • Click on Manage.
  • Click on Device Manager on the left.
18. You will probably see Unknown Device with ADB listed under it with a yellow exclamation mark.


And I don't see any Unknown Device there. So I decided to do everything from the start, and did that but same thing happend. Help?

EDIT: I also specified PATH by the instructions.

EDIT II: I see the problem now, there's no adb.exe file at all in SDK directories, I've found this there:
The adb tool has moved to platform-tools/

If you don't see this directory in your SDK,
launch the SDK and AVD Manager (execute the android tool)
and install "Android SDK Platform-tools"

Please also update your PATH environment variable to
include the platform-tools/ directory, so you can
execute adb from any location.

So, I'll do this, and I hope that it will resolve my problem.

FINAL EDIT (lol): Problem solved. I'll leave the post like this if someone else has the same problem.

Ooooook, next problem. Problem with installing ClockworkMod Recovery. Did everything form step 1. to step 4. as instructed here.
On step 5., I enter adb push flash_image /data/local/bin in cmd and I get this: cannot stat 'flash image' no such file or directory.

File flash_image is in the same folder as adb, in C:/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools. I don't get it.

So, instead of installing manually can I simply download this App - http://www.clockworkmod.com/? And follow this instructions? If so then this Full Update Guide is completely unnecessary.

It turns out that if I want to upgrade my Tattoo, I simply download Universal Androot and then root my phone, then I install ROM Manager (then flash ClockworkMod). Then download CM7, copy it on SD card, flash it with ROM Manager and voila. I'll do this in the morning, if it turns out that it's really this simple then you on CyanogenMod should put this simple instructions here.

P.S. Maybe there are this simple instructions here but I'm too lazy (or stupid) to find it. :)
