Ok guys, to setup adb, its really simple and easy. But for the most people they really don't need it. but if you really want to get the job done properly you may need to setup adb and which really does is that it communicates with computer and the phone via usb.

so, to setup adb, first you need to download the sdk file from the internet. or you can use the following link as your refrence:

Android SDK

1. so, download that file and extract it but save that extract in the root of your computer which is c:\ and you can extract it and to make it easy just type the name as androidSDK and it will be like c:\androidSDK\

2. and after that make sure on your phone the usb debugging is checked on.
if not you can check your phone by clicking on settings->Applications->Development-> usb debugging.

3. plug-in your phone via usb and on the computer it should that installling new drivers.

4. after that open the cmd. you know how to open that.

5. and in the cmd type the following hitting enter every time
cd \
cd androidSDK\tools\
adb devices

if it displays the devices with serial numbers then you are all set. there you go u finally setup the adb on the compter. but if it didn't displays the serial number or any devices then follow this.

download the USBDeview

once you downloaded don't unplug the phone but open that usbdeview that you downloaded.
click on sort by manufacture and theere you can see the list of htc devices.
select all the htc devices and delete them by clicking right click and delete.
once deleted then unplug the device and then plug it back and you can see the htc device over there
there you can see the htc adb devices then close the usbdeview.
there you go all set.
to make sure you can open the cmd again and do like before what you have done to find the devices on cmd.
