This tutorial will help you install ADB and Fastboot (Android Platform-tools) on Windows using the Minimal ADB and Fastboot tool.
Whether you are a novice or an advanced user of Android, you would be well aware that the usage of ADB or fastboot commands is required in rooting of almost every Android device out there. Be it to reboot the device into different developer modes, or to flash a partition image or to perform a bootloader unlock, almost all activities would need a mix of ADB or fastboot commands to be used.
What are ADB and Fastboot?
ADB or Android Debugging Bridge is essentially a platform consisting of a set of binaries that allows your computer to communicate with a connected Android device via a command-line terminal. The ADB protocol is generally used when the device is booted into the main Android OS, with USB debugging enabled in Developer Options. On the other hand, the Fastboot protocol is used when the device is booted into the Bootloader Mode, which is also commonly referred to as ‘Fastboot Mode’.
While all Android-based devices are supported by ADB, Fastboot would only work if the manufacturer has included support for the Fastboot protocol. As a classic example, Samsung devices deploy what’s called Download Mode and use a GUI tool called Odin to flash files. However, almost all other devices from mainstream manufacturers like Google, LG, HTC, Huawei, Sony, Xiaomi, Oneplus support Fastboot ModE
