don't use numbers on right side of you keyboard, just use the ones above qwerty
turn phone on, connect to pc with usb cable

on phone check usb debugging (settings/apps/development)

on phone select charge only usb mode (pull down usb options from top info bar)

yes it all got onto device then the pc told me to wait for device to reboot(after it had put something on my device) to further the rootprogramming or something. it stayed there for forever.. i assume i need to have 100% charge.. hard thing to do becasue my phone stops charging when battery reeaches 100% but it doesnt charge past.. so immediately the capacity drops to 90%...
 
just safer to have charged battery
bad battery fails flashing in bootloader

just disconnect phone reboot, reconnect to pc, and see if it will complete
