<p>The on-device debug agent (Application TRK or System TRK) is a program that enables on-device debugging of  phone prototypes, reference boards, and retail phones. An on-device debug agent is a program that is installed on a phone or reference board. It communicates with the debugger using a serial-over-Bluetooth or serial-over-USB connection. Through this serial communication, the on-device debug agent acts as the interface between the Carbide.c++ debugger and the target device. An on-device debug agent provides: </p>
