THub Drivers and ADB Access

THUB 2 DRIVER INSTALLATION AND ADB ACCESS

This method sets out how to install drivers for the THub 2 and access ADB (Android Debug Bridge).

Access to ADB is the usual way that you use to Root an Android device.

Please note that not all ADB versions work. If you download and try a root method, you may have to copy the ADB.exe and support files across so that the root method can at least have a chance of working.

What next, I don’t know but at least we have ADB access?

I have been trying to copy system files to my SD card to have a look at them but have no success.

Does anyone know how?

Here is the site I uploaded the files to:

I don’t know what it is for, but I installed it anyway. It MAY be necessary for the above method.
