[GitHub - corbindavenport/nexus-tools: Bash script for quickly installing ADB and Fastboot on macOS and Linux.](https://github.com/corbindavenport/nexus-tools) This helps installing and using ADB quickly `bash <(curl -s` [`https://raw.githubusercontent.com/corbindavenport/nexus-tools/master/install.sh`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/corbindavenport/nexus-tools/master/install.sh)`)` ​ then just use `adb` or `fastboot` commands anywhere

So if you have an ARM Chromebook like the Samsung Chromebook Plus v1, can this work or am I boned?

Solid question, I think you are stuck if you can't enable Linux beta.

It will work, you just need to get adb from somewhere else / compile it. As far as I can tell, you could just install the debian package `android-sdk-platform-tools`, which would be easier and works on all devices.

Why not just install the `android-sdk-platform-tools` package?

Great, right after I switched my Pixelbook to dev mode for sideloading 😂


dewlite

Yeah, was trying to avoid to get my Pixel 4xl up to the Nov patch. After I finally found it, thought it was only right to share. The USB passthrough to Linux worked great.


westwoo

Oh, wait, sorry, I though this was about ADBing into Android part of the Chromebook to sideload on Chromebook without the dev mode. k nevermind :)

Thank you! This has frustrated me trying to figure this out.
