That's a helpful and accurate addition to the new tutorial! *Tutorial: How to output Android system information to a text/pdf/html file* <https://www.novabbs.com/computers/article-flat.php?id=59032&group=comp.mobile.android#59032> You're absolutely right - a working ADB installation on the host computer and enabling USB debugging on the Android device are prerequisites for using any of the ADB commands I listed. It's also great that you mentioned ADB over Wi-Fi as an alternative for newer devices. That's a handy option for those who prefer a wireless connection. BTW, does anyone know why adb won't get the first file generated? /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.finalwire.aida64\files\report-2025-05-18-22-26-59.txt We should probably add your improvement to the concomitant XDA thread. *Tutorial: How to output Android system information to a text/pdf/html file* �<https://xdaforums.com/t/tutorial-how-to-output-android-system-information-to-a-text-pdf-html-file.4737418/> Note long titles are on purpose to help people find it in searches. Check it out and let me know if I added the information correctly. The advantage of XDA is that google searches find it so more people can benefit from our combined effort to increase our tribal knowledge. This is what I just now added to the XDA Developers thread... Important Note: To use ADB (Android Debug Bridge), you need a working ADB setup on your computer. This typically involves installing the Android SDK Platform-Tools. Additionally, you need to connect your Android device to your computer via USB, and enable "USB debugging" in the Developer Options of your Android device. For newer devices, ADB can sometimes be used over Wi-Fi, which requires knowing the device's IP address on the local network. Without these prerequisites, the ADB commands below will not work.
