While I was trying to download an android app on my mobile phone, I was getting a error ( 498) . Tried looking for the solution but couldn't get the resolution of my problem.

Download the Android Software Development Kit (SDK) from the Android SDK Download Site. 2. Once downloaded, find a safe installation location on your machine and simply extract the zipped files to this directory. For example, • on Mac or Linux, install in $HOME/ • on Windows, install in C:/ Make note of the full path to and directory name of this directory where the SDK files are unpacked on your system.  3.  If you are currently in the platform-tools directory, just call ./ adb -- help The dot is your current directory, and this tells Bash to use adb from there.
