• adb install C:\package.apk : Install the application in the package.apk file of the computer C drive.
• adb install myapp.apk : Install an application named myapp.apk.
• adb uninstall package.name : Uninstall an app called package.name (for example, uninstalling the Angry Birds app can use com.rovio.angrybirds ).
• adb install-multiple app1.apk app2.apk : Install multiple applications at once.
• adb push C:\file /sdcard/file : Push the computer C disk file to the /sdcard/file directory of the device.
• adb pull /sdcard/file C:\file : Pull the device /sdcard/file file to the computer C drive.
• adb logcat : View Android device logs for debugging applications.
• adb shell : Open an interactive Linux command line shell on the device.
• adb shell command : Run the specified shell command on the device.
• adb --help : View all available ADB commands.
