Installing adb drivers. adb program - Installation and configuration instructions for working with Android

ADB (Android Debug Bridge Utility) is a command line included with the Android SDK. ADB allows you to control your device via USB, copy files, install and remove applications, and much more. ADB allows you to use some Android tricks.

Step 1: Install the Android SDK

Go to the Android SDK download page and scroll down to “SDK Tools Only”. Download the ZIP file for your OS and extract the archive.

Run the SDK Manager exe file and uncheck all items except "Android SDK Platform-tools". If you are using a Nexus smartphone, you can also check the box next to “Google USB drive r" to load drivers. Click on the install button. It will download and install components, including ADB and other utilities.

When the installation is complete, you can close the SDK manager.

Attention! At the moment, the installation is as follows:
Go to the Android Studio download page, scroll down to the "Get just the command line tools" section and download the archive for the appropriate OS version (Windows in our case).

Unzip the downloaded archive, for example, to the root of drive C.

Interaction with the SDK Manager is carried out through command line. You can learn all the commands, but we will focus on the main ones. To start the SDK Manager, go to the folder where you unpacked the contents of the archive> tools> bin and hold Shift key right-click on an empty area and select "Open command window" if you are using a version other than Windows 10. Or launch a command prompt and specify the working directory. In my case it is:

Cd C:\sdk-tools-windows-3859397\tools\bin

Enter command sdkmanager and press Enter to see all available options. But we are interested in the following command:

sdkmanager "platform-tools" "platforms;android-26"

This command will install platform tools (including adb and fastboot) and SDK tools for API 26, which corresponds to Android version 8.x. The full list of Android versions and their corresponding APIs is described below:

Android 1.0 - API 1
Android 1.1 - API 2
Android 1.5 - API 3
Android 1.6 - API 4
Android 2.0/2.1 - API 5, 6, 7
Android 2.2 - API 8
Android 2.3 - API 9, 10
Android 3.0 / 3.1 / 3.2 - API 11, 12, 13
Android 4.0 - API 14, 15
Android 4.1 / 4.2 / 4.3 - API 16, 17, 18
Android 4.4 - API 19.20
Android 5.0/5.1 - API 21, 22
Android 6.0 - API 23
Android 7.0 / 7.1 - API 24, 25
Android 8.0/8.1 - API 26

Because I have a device with Android 7.0, then my command will look like this:

sdkmanager "platform-tools" "platforms;android-24"

You can also do this step through the Android Studio GUI. To do this, go to the download page, download, install and run Android Studio.

Click "Configure" and "SDK Manager".

Make sure there is a checkmark next to "Android SDK Platform-tools" and "Google USB Drive" if you are using a Nexus device. Click OK to close SDK Manager, close Android Studio as well.

Step 2: Enable USB Debugging

Go to your phone settings and select "About phone". Scroll down to "Build Number" and tap it 7 times. You should see a message that you are signed in to developer mode.

Return to home page settings, you should have a new item “For developers”. Turn on USB Debugging. Enter a password or PIN if required.

Once you've done that, connect your phone to your computer. You will get a window on your phone asking "Enable USB Debugging?". Check the "Always allow this computer" box and click OK.

Step3: Testing ADB and Installing Drivers for Your Smartphone

Open the folder where the SDK is installed and there open the platform-tools folder. This is where the ADB program is stored. Hold the Shift key and right click inside the folder. Select "Open command window".

To check if ADB is working properly, connect your Android device to your computer with USB cable and run the following command:

adb devices

You should see the device listed. If the device is connected to the computer, but it is not displayed in the list, then you need to install the ADB driver for your device. There should be corresponding files on the website of the manufacturer of your device. For example, for Motorola devices they can be downloaded, for Samsung, for HTC drivers are included in the HTC Sync Manager program. You can also find the necessary files on the XDA Developers site without any additional programs.

You can also install the Google USB Driver from the Extras folder in the SDK Manager window, as we mentioned in the first step.

If you are using the Google USB driver, you will have to force Windows to use installed drivers for your device. Open the Device Manager (right-click on the My Computer shortcut and select Properties - Device Manager), find your device in the list. Right click on it and select Properties. Click the Driver tab and click the Update button. Select "Search for drivers on this computer".

Find the Google USB Driver in the Extras folder with the SDK installed, and select the google\usb_driver folder and click Next. Once the drivers are installed, try running the adb devices command again. If everything is done correctly and the drivers are suitable, then you will see your device in the list. Congratulations, you were able to install ADB driver.

Useful adb commands

ADB offers some useful commands:

adb install C:\package.apk

- Install the application on the phone located along the path C:\package.apk on the computer;

adb uninstall package.name

- Remove the application named package.name from the device. For example, com.rovio.angrybirds will uninstall the Angry Birds game;

Adb push C:\file /sdcard/file

— Places a file from the computer to the device. This command will send the file C:\file on the computer to the device along the path /sdcard/file<.

Adb pull /sdcard/file C:\file

- Works like the previous command, but in reverse.

The Google USB Driver is required for Windows if you want to perform adb debugging with any of the Google Nexus devices. Windows drivers for all other devices are provided by the respective hardware manufacturer, as listed in the OEM USB Drivers document.

Note: If you're developing on Mac OS X or Linux, then you do not need to install a USB driver. Instead see Using Hardware Devices .

You can download the Google USB Driver for Windows in one of two ways:

Download the Google USB driver

ADB and Fastboot utilities are included in the Android SDK (do not confuse with Android Studio, let alone download its cumbersome installation file, unless you are going to develop for Android, of course). ADB is a debugging tool that allows you to access the Android console from a computer () by connecting the gadget to a PC via USB. At the same time, it should be. Fastboot is designed to work with the device when it is loaded in the mode of the same name (if there is one on your device).

With the help you can control your smartphone/tablet from your computer: backup apps, record a screencast, put your smartphone into recovery mode and much more. In addition, you can work with ADB over Wi-Fi. To do this, your device must be root-rights, and you will also need special application that connects to a computer over a network. For example, ADB Wireless either WiFi ADB. But this is material for a separate article.

Using Fastboot you can install firmware, ( or CWM ), unlock bootloader(on devices HTC, Motorola, Sony, , , the last it is blocked), clean up system partitions.

1. First of all, go to the official website where you can download the Android SDK: https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html. We go down the page to the section "" and select the download of the archive for Windows.

2. Check the checkbox " I have read and agree with the above terms and conditions” and press the button “

3. Download it and unzip it to the root of the Disk " C:».

4. You also need to download the Java Development Kit from official page. Go to the site, agree to the terms of the license agreement by checking the box "", and download the JDK version that matches the bitness of your system.

First way

Go back to the Android SDK folder, open " tools" and run " android».

Check the box " Android SDK Platform-tools" (and " Google USB driver" if you have a Nexus device) and click " Install Packages».

Read about installing drivers for other devices below.

Select " Accept License" and press " Install».

My log showed that an error occurred during the installation process. But in the end, everything ended successfully.

After completing the above steps in the folder " tools_windows-version"," will appear, and it will contain the " adb" And " fastboot».

Second way

Go to the folder " sdk-tools-windows-version» → « tools» → « bin» and holding down the « Shift”, right-click on an empty area. Select " Open command window" or "" if one of the latest builds of Windows 10 is installed on the PC or laptop.

Paste the command into PowerShell or the command line (in PowerShell, add ./ at the beginning):

Click " Enter' to execute the command. The files will download and you will be prompted to install:

To allow, enter y , i.e. " yes", and press " Enter', then the installation of '' will begin.

At the end, the command line will display a message that the procedure completed successfully. And the folder "" with ADB and Fastboot inside will appear in " sdk-tools-windows-version».

(!) If for some reason you cannot install ADB and Fastboot using the previous methods, use the third option - just download archive"" and unzip to disk " C:».

smartphone or tablet, you need to download the USB driver:
Samsung - the driver is included in the Kies utility: http://www.samsung.com/ru/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/ or you can download it separately by selecting the desired model: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads

HTC - as part of HTC Sync Manager: http://www.htc.com/ru/software/htc-sync-manager/

Nexus - The Android driver is installed with the Android SDK, as described above.

Huawei - together with the HiSuite utility: http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/index.html

LG - Install LG PC Suite: http://www.lg.com/ru/support/software-firmware

Motorola - see this page: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481

Sony Xperia - FastBoot drivers for all models can be found here: http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/

Xiaomi - Mi PC Suite: http://pcsuite.mi.com

MTK - for Chinese devices on MediaTek chips: http://online.mediatek.com/Public%20Documents/MTK_Android_USB_Driver.zip

Lenovo - select the model of smartphone, tablet and download the ADB driver: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/GlobalProductSelector

Look for solutions for devices from other manufacturers on their official websites.

There are various universal ADB driver installers (for example, this one: http://adbdriver.com/downloads/) - they can also be used, for example, when for some reason it was not possible to establish an official solution.

If your model comes with a driver without an installer, you will have to follow these steps:

1. Go to " Control Panel» → « device Manager". In Windows 10, just right-click on the menu " Start» and select « device Manager».

2. Find the device for which you need to install drivers in the list. Right click and click " Update drivers».

As you can see, the computer correctly recognizes my Nexus 7 tablet. If your PC detects the smartphone incorrectly or there is a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark inside it, the “manual” installation of Android drivers is mandatory for you.

3. Select " Search for drivers on this computer».

4. Specify the path to the folder with the drivers on the PC.

Wait for the installation to complete and then reconnect the gadget to the computer via USB.

Working with ADB or Fastboot is carried out from the command line, you can enter in two ways:

Method 1: Right click on " Start' and select ' Command Prompt (Admin)". Next, using the commands, you need to go to the folder with ADB and Fastboot (after entering each, press " Enter»).

To return to the root of the disk " C:\", use:

cd /

Thanks to this command, open the desired folder:

In my case it turned out like this:

cd \tools_windows-version\platform-tools

You will get (Google developers changed the name of the archive after writing the initial version of this instruction):

cd \sdk-tools-windows-version\platform-tools

The path to Fastboot and ADB is indicated, now we are working with them from the console.

To avoid doing these steps every time, add the path to "" to the variable " Path". First, go to the folder, in the navigation bar, right-click on "" and select "".

Go to " Control Panel". To do this, click " Win» + « R” and in the “Open:” field, insert . Click " OK».

Select " System» → « Additional system settings» → «».

Find the variable " Path”, highlight it and select “ Change…».

Click " Create", paste the path to the folder "" and click " OK».

2: Go to " sdk-tools-windows-version» → «», then holding « Shift", right-click on an empty space and select " Open command window" or "".

Enter the following to check how the PC sees Android (in Windows PowerShell insert ./ before the command):

adb devices

Don't forget that USB debugging must be enabled to work with ADB! You will find more useful commands in the last article, the link is at the beginning of this post.

Many of us are already familiar with ADB (Android Debug Bridge) because as an owner of an Android device, it is quite common to perform such simple steps, How adb push And pull, or adb reboot etc. But for many novice users, the mere sight of the command line is already intimidating, and seems prohibitively possible. Although it is actually quite simple, experienced users will not let me lie, and the biggest difficulty is to remember all these commands, although this is also not necessary, since the Internet is always at hand and finding the right command is not difficult.

Android Debug Bridge which is part of android emulator The SDK allows you to communicate between your computer and an Android device connected to it, by the way, if you need some kind of software, you can download programs for a laptop for free here. What can I do with ADB? Its capabilities are quite wide, for example, the most popular actions: copy files from an Android device to a computer, upload files from a computer to Android, execute many Linux commands, receive error reports, etc.

Therefore, if you are new to this business and want to learn a little more about ADB than just what it is, then I suggest you check out my little basic guide to learning ADB.

3. Computer with installed Windows OS.

Now let's move on to the active phase:

1. Download the required zip archive and extract it wherever you like, for example, drive C.

2. Now go to the C:/adb/sdk/platform-tools directory. Here you will find a set of files as shown in the picture below.

3. Hold down the Shift button + right mouse click and run the command Windows string from the current directory.

4. Enter the command adb start-server.

5. To make sure that your device is properly connected and recognized by the computer, enter the command: adb devices. If all is well, you will see something similar to this:

Bug reporting (BUGREPORT)

You can run the command: adb bug report, but you will receive a notification that the generated report will not be readable, so it's better to use: adb bugreport>result.txt.

ADB with ROOT permissions

To work from under ADB with full access rights, you need to root the device. If the device is already manual, then execute the command: adb root and see what is shown in the picture below (reboot ADB with root rights).
