(The full IDE installation is very large. No need to guess what the current version is, or update your own links: just follow these and get the latest binaries, direct from the source. ADB is included as part of Android Studio, Google’s IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for Android app development, but you can also download it as a standalone tool if you don’t need the full IDE.
These links will always return the adb/fastboot binaries currently shipping with Android Studio. If youre not using Android Studio, you need to download and install Android SDK platform tools. If you dont already have Android Studio, download and install Android Studio. Google’s move to offer the tools itself removes an ambiguity, legitimizing the whole process. The arrival of the two tools as a separate download from the development suite, is thanks to two Googlers, as explained via a Google+ post.Įver wanted to download adb or fastboot without having to download the whole of Android Studio?…but didn’t want to download executables from some random warez site? ADB is available on your computer when you install Android Studio. Then go to settings and turn on Linux (if you haven’t done so before).
There have historically been unofficial ways of getting the ADB and Fastboot tools, but they were often older packages and nobody could ever truly confirm their legitimacy. Here is how: First, make sure the Chromebook is not in developer mode.
Previously, users had to get hold of a copy of the ADB (Android Device Bridge) and Fastboot tools themselves, which usually required the installation of the full Android Studio development suite, which was a bit overkill for what they actually needed to do.
