What’s ADB?

Android Debug Bridge is known as ADB. It functions when the device is turned on and is in the OS or Recovery mode. The utility facilitates the transmission of fundamental Linux commands as well as a number of Android-specific commands from a PC to connected Android devices.

What’s Fastboot?

ADB is not as powerful as Fastboot, which only operates in bootloader/fastboot mode. It necessitates a smartphone with an unlocked bootloader and enables you to flash your Android handset’s system partitions again. It comes in handy when you wish to manually upgrade your device or, in a very rare circumstance, when you accidently soft-brick your device and need to install a fresh stock system image.

Advantages of ADB and Fastboot tool

  • Suitable for all Android devices
  • It run on either the Mac or Windows platforms.
  • You can Flash TWRP Recovery
  • Relock and Unlock the bootloader of the device.

Setup Your Android Device for ADB

Your Android device cannot use ADB until it has been configured to work with ADB, even if you install ADB on your PC. Follow the instructions below to learn to accomplish that if you’re unsure.

  • Go to “About Phone” in the Settings app on your Android handset. Tap “Build number” seven times in a row from this point on. The ‘Build Numer’ page could be buried behind other pages due to the numerous skins that Android devices have.
  • Your Android device will now have “Developer options” enabled. Go to “System,” then “Developer Options,” and “USB debugging” will be enabled. Choose “File transfer (MTP)” as your mode anytime you connect your Android smartphone to a computer going forward. The device front is closed to you. Setting up ADB on your PC is the subsequent step.
