Here in-lies the problem with your partial instructions:

Go to Start> Run, or press Windows + R, and type cmd. In the command console, go to the directory “Program Files” (PROBLEM NUMBER ONE – no CORRECT explanation in DETAIL) and enter the path AndroidAndroid-SDKPlatform-tools. (DID NOT WORK) Once there:

Write adb devices to see if the phone is connected and recognized (REQUIRES MORE EXPLAINATION – IN DETAIL)
You should see a device with a serial number
If not, or appears as offline, try another USB cable
Enter netstat

(NEEDS DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS ie, “type “netstat” in the command console at C:Program Files> prompt” etc.)

and see if port 5037 is in use
(TELL US HOW TO DETERMINE “IN USE” as opposed to “NOT IN USE”)

Is the use ADB (MORE DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS INSERTED HERE PLEASE).
If in use, close the process in use

*******************************************************************
TIP: The correct path in the command console to REALLY go to the directory “Program Files”, just type the correct path like this:

cd c:”Program Files” WITH THE QUOTES (for WINDOWS 7 Home Edition)

I know, the editor was terrible about explaining himself clearly and concisely. Perhaps they expect readers to know what they means by way of mindreading. The editor’s instructions did not even work correctly upon following his steps precisely.

TO THE EDITOR: in the future, please explain ALL steps more thoroughly please.
It will surely benefiit all your readers in a much more positive way and they will be thankful you took the time to exlain details step-by-step rather than an article with missing and/or partially given instructions to perform the specified actions.
