ADB (Android Debug Bridge) and Fastboot (a protocol between phone and computer is a nifty command-line tool used to interact with your Android device from a computer. In this guide, we’ll show you how you can download and setup ADB on Windows 10 computer, using ADB and Fastboot, Installing Google USB driver along with resources and a step-by-step guide.

What are ADB and Fastboot?

ADB and Fastboot are the tools used to send terminal commands to your Android phone via a computer while connected through a USB cable. Although, both serve different functions but can be installed at the same time. Below is a quick breakdown of what these tools are and what do they do.

• Android Debug Bridge (ADB): This tool allows you to send a wide array of terminal commands — including but not limited to basic Linux shell commands, plus some specialty developer commands — to your phone at just about any time (as long as you have debugging enabled on your phone). You can send commands while the phone is turned on and booted, or even when it’s in recovery mode. While ADB is often used in conjunction with rooting or modifying your phone, you can use ADB to send terminal commands to unrooted devices as well. ~ Lifehacker

For example, you can copy files from your computer to Android storage by using “ADB push ironman3.Mkv /sd card/Movies/” command.

• Fastboot:a protocol between phone and computer. When you need to modify your phone’s firmware, Fastboot is the tool you need. This allows you to send commands to the bootloader, which means you can flash/modify things like custom recoveries. You can’t flash whole ROMs with it, but it’s helpful for many things that ADB can’t do. Fastboot isn’t enabled for all phones, so you may have to check your specific device. ~ Lifehacker

You can flash a custom recovery using “fastboot flash recovery twrp.img” (twrp.img should be located in the same folder).

Both of these tools come with the Android SDK. However, that’s an extremely large download that, frankly, most users who are interested in ADB and fastboot don’t need. Fortunately, Google recently made it easy to get these two without all the junk.

Google made a relatively small package called “Platform-tools” that includes ADB and Fastboot along with some other utilities.
