=== adb is a useful tool for debugging android devices, you can download the binary from google/android.com(mostly), but it only supports small amount devices. To support some specific android device, you need to add the VID, add udev rule, etc. If you want to support your devices natively of adb, you should change the usb_vendors.c code, then build the whole android source to get the adb tool. It cause too much to gain the benity.
This project is to build the adb source standalone out of the Android build script system. I merged the main adb source with some essential libraries (libcutils and libzipfile), and add Makefile for it.
- This project has supported fastboot (from 0.1.0).
=== INSTRUCTIONS:
-
After get the source, you can change the usb_vendor_ids.c to add your VID. use debian/gen_udev_rules.sh to generate udev rule for those VID.
-
make build the adb and fastboot
-
make install install the adb and fastboot into /usr/bin/ configure the udev
-
copy 51-android.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/
=== TO BUILD .DEB PACKAGE
-
Check dpkg tools (dpkg-dev, dh-make, debhelper, fakeroot, etc.)
-
run
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b
to generate .deb package (To install the package, you could usesudo dpkg -i ../adb_x.x.x-1.xxx.deb
)
=== OR DOWNLOAD the prebuilt package
https://github.com/downloads/karfield/adb/adb_0.1.0-1_amd64.deb
install the deb by graphic installer or command(sudo dpkg -i xxx.deb
)
Howto compile? git clone this repo. run ./autogen.sh make install
to support homebrew use
Give a name: Adb4Mac
- brew edit Adb4Mac
Modify like this: require 'formula'
class Adb4Mac < Formula
homepage 'https://git.hub/karfield/adb/'
url 'https://github.com/downloads/karfield/adb/adb-1.0.1.tgz'
md5 '308a5476fc096a8a525d07279a6f6aa3' ## dont mod this line, it's auto-gen
def install
system "./autogen.sh"
system "./configure", "--prefix=#{prefix}"
system 'make install'
end
end
- brew install Adb4Mac
if you don't compile this on your mac, just download the excutable bin files, copy them (adb and fastboot) into wherever you wannt. OR run install-adb-for-mac.sh(download https://github.com/downloads/karfield/adb/install-adb-for-mac.tar.gz)
Enjoy it!
