In my application I'm doing:
try {
String[] cmd = {"su", "-c", "\"ls /data/\""}; //to debug, will be cp /src /dest
ProcessBuilder builder = new ProcessBuilder(cmd);
builder.redirectErrorStream(true);
Process process = builder.start();
InputStream is = process.getInputStream();
Log.e("copy", is.toString());
Log.e("copy", convertStreamToString(is));
try {
process.waitFor();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
} catch (IOException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
The app is installed in /system/app/ and running with root permissions.
I see SuperSu's overlay that it's granted permissions for the operation.
With the cp /src /dest in place of ls command above, it doesn't copy, so debugging with ls, I get:
tmp-mksh: ls /data: not found
Why is this, and how can I fix it?
NB: This is the same issue as this question, except that was resolved by adding external write permissions - I should note that both paths in my command are in /data/...

My device has been rooted and now i want to run an .sh file from my android application. I tried with following code but it did't provide the intended output:
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("sh /data/local/tmp/xyz.sh");
If i run .sh file from adb it is working fine for me.
Try following code.
try{
Process root = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
DataOutputStream os = new DataOutputStream(root.getOutputStream());
os.writeBytes("sh /system/bin/xyz.sh \n");
os.flush();
}
catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (SecurityException se){
se.printStackTrace();
}
This snippet worked for me,I hope this may help you.
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("sh /data/local/tmp/xyz.sh");
Scanner stdout = new Scanner(process.getInputStream());
while (stdout.hasNextLine()) {
Log.i("stdout", stdout.nextLine());
}
stdout.close();
Scanner stderr = new Scanner(process.getErrorStream());
while (stderr.hasNextLine()) {
Log.e("stderr", stderr.nextLine());
}
stderr.close();
How to create an application that runs a command in /system.
The command that I need to give is: udpxy -p 4022.
This command will start a program that I have in /system.
I do not know which commands use in creating application, which execute this command.
If anyone can help I'll be very grateful.
try {
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/system/udpxy -p 4022");
process.waitFor();
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);

Please help me to find out solution for this, I Know there are so many questions and duplicates about this same but here i describe whole things which i tried.
I have one android device where its installed 4.0 version of android.
I want to shutdown this device using my one demo application.
1) Demo application is signed by platform keys which are used in built in file system.
2) Device is already rooted as its development board and i have all permissions on this.
Application contains Following things
1) Application is system application
2) Application signed by platform keys which are used in built in file system.
For make automation easier, I did import the key/cert pair into my java keystore file, with the this keytool-importkeypair and use eclipse for signing.
Used command is mentioned below.
Commad : keytool-importkeypair -k ~/Desktop/myown.keystore -p android -pk8 platform.pk8 -cert platform.x509.pem -alias platform
I used following code for reboot but i never make success in this .I read So many questions and answers on stackoverflow but they all said you require
1) root access of device
2) signed apk with any one keys which are available on `build/target/product/security/`
3) Given Proper permission in AndroidManifest.xml file.
Am i right in alomg points?
Application code :
First Try
public static void shutdown2() {
Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process proc = null;
OutputStreamWriter osw = null;
String command = "/system/bin/reboot -p";
try { // Run Script
proc = runtime.exec("/system/xbin/su");
osw = new OutputStreamWriter(proc.getOutputStream());
osw.write(command);
osw.flush();
osw.close();
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (osw != null) {
try {
osw.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
try {
if (proc != null)
proc.waitFor();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
if (proc.exitValue() != 0) {
}
}
Second Try :
private void shutdown3() {
try {
String[] cmd = { "/system/bin/sh","su","reboot -p"};
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
proc.waitFor();
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.i("TAG", "Could not reboot 3 ", ex);
}
}
3rd Try :
private void shutdown() {
try {
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(
new String[] { "/system/bin/su", "-c",
"/system/bin/reboot -p" });
proc.waitFor();
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.i("TAG", "Could not reboot 1 ", ex);
}
}
In 3rd method I also tried with "/system/bin/su"
The below code worked for me
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime()
.exec(new String[]{ "su", "-c", "busybox poweroff -f"});
process.waitFor();
A much better solution is to run:
su -c am start -a android.intent.action.ACTION_REQUEST_SHUTDOWN
You can use a Process for this.
I want to install .apk silently in background by BusyBox command. I`ve seen some similar questions like THIS, but I still cant get working my code properly...
I have:
My .apk I need to install on /sdcard/download/app.apk
Root
BusyBox installed
Code (not working):
String sss = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/download/" + "app.apk";
Process install;
install = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/system/xbin/busybox pm install " + sss);
int success = install.waitFor();
If I use "install" instead of "pm install" it copies file well.
P.S. Code above is executing in AsyncTask. No errors, but also nothing happens...
Please help!
Also I tried this, but I`m getting exit value 139 and no result:
Process process;
process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
DataOutputStream os = new DataOutputStream(process.getOutputStream());
os.writeBytes("pm install /mnt/sdcard/app.apk\n");
os.flush();
os.writeBytes("exit\n");
os.flush();
int i = process.waitFor();
maybe this code will help you
Process p = null;
try
{
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
DataOutputStream outs=new DataOutputStream(p.getOutputStream());
String cmd="pm install /mnt/sdcard/app.apk";
outs.writeBytes(cmd+"\n");
}
catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
After a lot of investigations on many android devices I realized that this code is correct and works!
There was just some problem with one device (Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 - 4.0.3 ICS). Maybe that is some strange feature of ICS. After updating firmware to 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean) problem has been resolved.
You can simply use adb install command to install/update APK silently. Sample code is below
public static void InstallAPK(String filename){
File file = new File(filename);
if(file.exists()){
try {
String command;
filename = StringUtil.insertEscape(filename);
command = "adb install -r " + filename;
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] { "su", "-c", command });
proc.waitFor();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
I have an app on the market that is for rooted devices only. I have tested the app extensively on a rooted and unrooted G1, MT3G and Cliq with no errors. I am receiving a number of low ratings from people with supposedly rooted devices, saying that the app tells them that they are not rooted (of course, they usually don't leave important info like what phone and what rom)
Here is the code that generates the error... can anyone see out what the problem might be?
final Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.******);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
String command1 = "mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system";
String command2 = "cp -f /sdcard/******* /etc/";
String command3 = "dos2unix -u /etc/*****";
String command4 = "mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system";
execCommandLine1(command1);
execCommandLine1(command2);
execCommandLine1(command3);
execCommandLine1(command4);
}
void execCommandLine1(String command)
{
Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process proc = null;
OutputStreamWriter osw = null;
try
{
proc = runtime.exec("su");
osw = new OutputStreamWriter(proc.getOutputStream());
osw.write(command);
osw.flush();
osw.close();
}
catch (IOException ex)
{
Log.e("execCommandLine()", "Command resulted in an IO Exception: " + command);
return;
}
finally
{
if (osw != null)
{
try
{
osw.close();
}
catch (IOException e){}
}
}
try
{
proc.waitFor();
}
catch (InterruptedException e){}
if (proc.exitValue() != 0)
{
**// Error Dialog that is being erroneously displayed**
}
else {
// Success Dialog
}
}
I agree with Christopher's comment: you appear to be making some assumptions:
/system is at /dev/block/mtdblock3
/dev/block/mtdblock3 is yaffs2
/etc/ is a hardlink or symlink to something on /system
mount exists
dos2unix exists
cp exists
su exists
Most of those should be testable at runtime, though the /etc/ check might be a bit tricky. Test that stuff out on the first run of your app, then do whatever makes sense:
an "sorry, this app won't work" if you detect a failure
disable the menu/button/whatever that leads to whatever is executing your code
