Description Helmut Jarausch 2015-06-15 14:32:44 UTC 
The recovery system TWRP 2.8.x on an Android device requires an adb version >=1.0.32
Please upgrade  dev-util/android-tools.

Thanks,
Helmut

Helmut,

You could also use /opt/android-sdk-update-manager/platform-tools/adb

But I agree, it would be nice to see an update of android-tools.
Comment 2 Mathy Vanvoorden 2015-08-12 21:37:32 UTC 
I also had a need for the newer adb and fastboot so I hacked together (hacked being the operative word here) some ebuilds based on existing ones if anyone is interested. I put them in my overlay:

The version numbering is off as I took them from the actual tags (which are called android-5.1.1_r13 and the likes) in the git repositories without knowing they had separate versions. Maybe I'll fix that in a future update :-)
Comment 3 Mathy Vanvoorden 2015-08-12 21:48:23 UTC 
Just to be clear, I used the adb and fastboot ebuilds I created to root a phone, flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 and afterwards CM12 so everything seems to be working as expected.

No warranty if your phone explodes though ;-)
