 | <p>To flash a device, you will need to use <code>fastboot</code>. Place the device in fastboot mode either manually by holding the appropriate key combination at boot, or from the shell with</p> | 
 | <pre><code>$ adb reboot bootloader | 
 | </code></pre> | 
 | <p>Once the device is in fastboot mode, run </p> | 
 | <pre><code>$ fastboot flashall -w | 
 | </code></pre> | 
 | <p>The <code>-w</code> option wipes the <code>/data</code> partition on the device; this is useful for your first time flashing a particular device, but is otherwise unnecessary.</p> |

 | <p>To run the emulator, type</p> | 
 | <pre><code>$ emulator | 
 | </code></pre> |
