Having Difficulty Connecting Device

Probably an easy fix. Haven't flashed a ROM in a while and forgot some stuff. :confused:

Problem: Accidentally deleted Google Now launcher. OS wouldn't load properly.
Action: Was able to get into settings, so I DL'ed the latest nightly build for CM13. Got it on the device successfully. Wiped the delvik, cache, system and all that, but when I tried to flash the build, I get an error:
Quote:

Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: No MD5 file found
Sprint CDMA variant detected!
Reboot into Bootloader Mode, connect your device to PC and from PC terminal type:
fastboot oem config fsg-id boost
and then flash the CM mod again
Next Action: I recently re-installed Linux Mint, so I had to re-install the ADB and Fastboot. I did so per the instructions on LifeHacker for Linux (can't link to it BC I'm a new user still on XDA).

Current Issue: I can't figure out how to open a terminal for my device. If I installed ADB and Fastboot correctly I should just be able to right-click and select 'Open Terminal here' like I did before, but for some reason (probably some terminal command I'm forgetting) my PC isn't allowing me terminal access to the device still/yet.

Other Information:
  • My PC does recognize my device as a USB storage device.
  • My old ROM did have ADB Debugging.
  • I still have access to Fastboot and TWRP (not bricked, thankfully).
  • CM13 ROM file is still in the device. So, I'm very close, but still a step away from fixing this.

I think I'm missing something simple, but I haven't done this in a while.

Thank you for your help in advance! :good::good::good:

Edit
Forgot to mention: When I connect the device and put it into Fastboot and then type in the command "fastboot oem config fsg-id boost" in my terminal, I get: <Waiting for device>. So, something is missing.
