**Easy ADB**​

Thanks [MENTION=3125148]kennyglass123[/MENTION], [MENTION=4645794]CNexus[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3585174]gruesomewolf[/MENTION]

This was thought of the other night when kennyglass123 and CNexus
were trying to get recovery to mount storage. I had a idea, Why not
make a simple way to get a ADB log when trouble shooting, instead
of using an app from the market. Plus it will pull a log upon boot, ever
had it where your testing something and it wont boot and the Developer
wants you to get a log, but you either don't have ADB or know how to
use ADB. This is for you!! Thanks goes to Kenny Glass, CNexus for the
idea and Gruesomewolf for the bat file edit.

What you need
Windows PC
Android device
Easy ADB.zip attached to this post

Whats included
Your basic ADB parts to be able to run without needing the SDK installed
LOG.bat file
Reboot.bat (Reboots device)
Recovery.bat (Sends device to recovery)
Download mode.bat (Sends device to download mode (ODIN mode))

How to record log cat using LOG.bat
You will download the zip
Extract to your desktop for easy access
Plug your device in to your PC
Open the ADB folder
Right click the LOG bat file, select run as admin (might not need to)
It will open a command window
Select ANY key to continue or control-c to quit
Wait for it to return to press any key to continue
Now you will have a text file called LOG, that is you LOG cat using ADB
You are now done and can send it to whomever or read it over yourself.

Some of you know me and that I have ported "Goodness Noteworthy" to Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T on the Note 2, So I may do a guide on porting roms from or to other carriers. Although I have not tried a International rom yet.
