ADB FOR BEGINNERS-SIMPLE EASY STEPS!
Intro:
The Android Debug Bridge, which comes as part of the Android SDK, allows for communication between your desktop computer and target device. So what can you do with ADB? Quite a bit. As alluded to earlier, you can push files to the device from the client PC, pull device from the device to the client PC, you can reboot (to Android, boot loader, or recovery), record a logcat, obtain a bug report, execute many standard Linux commands, and much, much more.
The biggest problem for new users becomes knowing what commands can be executed and remembering the proper syntax. Luckily, these commands and their syntax are all pretty understandable.
So let's start.
Adb start-server :
This command starts the adb daemon on your desktop computer and allows your computer to interact with your device. Note that this command isn’t essential, as executing any other ADB command will automatically start the daemon.
------------------------------------------------
Adb kill-server :
As you would expect, this kills the adb daemon.
------------------------------------------------
Adb logcat :
This generates a logcat, which is quite useful when figuring out where things are going wrong. You can redirect the output into a text file by using “>”.
For example, you can type “adb logcat > logcat.txt”
to record your logcat as logcat.txt.
-------------------------------------------------

We will add more commands soon!!
