In this guide, we will be discussing about the QuickADB Tool, its features, and the usage instructions. ADB and Fastboot Commands are perhaps the most powerful that a tech enthusiast can have in its arsenal. From installing/uninstalling APKs to installing updates via sideload, from pushing and pulling files to your device to booting your device to Recovery, Bootloader, FastbootD, and EDL Mode, the ADB Mode beholds a slew of useful features. Along the same lines, the Fastboot Mode allows you to unlock the bootloader, flash custom recovery like TWRP, flash patched boot for root, and even flash the entire firmware via Fastboot commands.
However, all of these tweaks require you to manually type in the commands in the CMD window which should be opened inside the platform-tools folder. Not only does this process take quite a lot of time but could well lead to issues with your device if you end up executing incorrect commands. Fortunately, you can now put these doubts to rest, all thanks to the QuickADB Tool. Here’s everything you need to know about this tool, its functionalities, and most importantly, the instructions to use it. Follow along.
