If you have the SDK installed on your PC, use "adb shell ls" to list the contents of your phone

while your phone is connected to the PC, of course.

once you have installed adb and an open command prompt window in your computer just type shell
am assuming you know how to run adb, your phone does not need to be mounted

instead of just typing adb type "adb shell" and if you are just right clicking on adb.exe and running in a command window, forget that. do this:
1. start - run
2. cmd <enter>
3. cd "Desktop\Etc\Programs\Android\android-sdk-windows-1.1_r1\tools" <enter>
4. adb shell <enter>
now you will be in a terminal window of your phone.

no, just hook it up.

be patient with the driver install i found it lagged so much i thought the drivers didnt install properly.

the drivers are in a folder in the SDK download.

If your ok with using wifi instead of USB, you can setup your phone as a network location on your computer using SwiFTP.
