Then Follow the Steps below:

A.    Install the Android SDK and the device drivers

1. Download and install the Android SDK.( https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html )

2. If you’re running Windows, you also need to download and install an updated Fastboot driver(http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/fastboot-driver/ ). This is the standard android_winusb.inf-file, with a few lines of code added to enable Fastboot to support Sony & Sony Ericsson devices. Replace the original android_winusb.inf-file with the downloaded file in the usb_driver folder, located in the Android SDK > extras > google folder on your computer. If you can’t find the usb_driver folder, make sure you are running Google USB Driver package revision 4 or higher in your Android SDK. If not, install the Google USB Driver Packager using the Android SDK manager.

Note! If you’re running OSX or Linux, you are not required to install any additional drivers.

3. Change the system path(My Computer>Properties>Advanced>Enviornmental Variables>New) to path.

Ie,  sytem variable name: path

     Variable value: C:\Users\(UserName)\AppData\Local\Android\sdk1

To check if ADB is working fine, enable USB debugging mode on you device and connect it to your computer. Now open START.cmd, if Windows prompt, “Run Anyway” the START.cmd file. 

Now execute the following command:
adb devices
If  return the serial number, then you have set it up successfully and are good to go!

4. On your device, turn on USB debugging by going to Settings > Developer options and click to enable USB debugging.
As of Android Jelly Bean 4.2 the Developer options are hidden by default. To enable them tap on Settings > About Phone > Build Version multiple times. Then you will be able to access the Settings > Developer options.

B.     Connect to Fastboot
