Though Funtouch OS is quite advanced and well-optimized in terms of performance, multi-tasking, and daily usage, some of the users may not like the skin that much. In that scenario, we can say that plenty of Vivo device users are looking for the flashing custom firmware, root access, installing custom recovery, and more. So, the USB Drivers and ADB Fastboot Tool becomes very useful. That means connecting your smartphone to the PC/Laptop requires the USB Driver to be installed at first on the computer for stable and faster connectivity during transferring files or flashing files. Meanwhile, the ADB Fastboot Tool is a small utility command-line tool that also runs on Windows PC/Laptop which allows you to install the ADB & Fastboot files without any requirement of installing the full Android SDK Package. To recall, ADB stands for ‘Android Debug Bridge’.
