View 9 RepliesI want to pause terminal 'top' command. I tried using 'top -d 1000' but it makes it draw its output for the first time after 1000 seconds from launch, so first I would have to wait 1000 seconds to actually see its output.
How do I make 'top' stop refreshing itself?
I want Terminal Emulator to run the following every time I boot up:
adb shell
su
cat /sys/devices/virtual/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
is it possible to create a file or app that automatically runs that?
I'm using a Google phone running Android, and I need to figure out how to use the terminal's
'ip' command. I found out that Android uses BusyBox in its terminal, but I can't find any help or tutorials or any information regarding it other than the basic information given in the terminal help. Can anyone point me to a site that would give me more information on how to use the commands, or tell me how to use the 'IP' command if you are familiar with it?
How to send a command to the terminal through android app and get the output back? For example, sending "ls /" and getting the output to print it in the GUI?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow much are you using the terminal, and what kind of stuff do you use it for? Which emulator are you using? I like the idea of tinkering with command line on my phone, using it to do simple stuff, partly as a fun way to get reacquainted with it, as I use to use command line a little bit with XP and ubuntu. I've batted around between Better Terminal Emulator Pro and Terminal Emulator. One confusing thing is that they seem to use different commands. For example, in terminal emulator the help command brings up a help menu, in TEP it is unrecognized as a command. What accounts for these differences? Lastly, any suggestions for lists of commands and tips for using them, in a way that will work with these emulators?

I am trying to create the following AVDs
http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/common-android-virtual-device-configurations/
But it won't work on from Android SDK Manager. There seems to be bug that throws the following error "SD Card size must be at least 9MB". So I have decided to try from command prompt as I read on other blog that it will allow me to create AVDs without getting SDs less than 9MB errors. It won't take specific dimensions for the skin-s width-height
I have a rooted samsung captivate with sideloading enabled. After experimenting with different wifi tethering apps from the unofficial market, I began experiencing difficulties with my wifi connection. Even after uninstalling every app that I thought was changing the wifi state, the problem still persists. I can turn on the wifi and it will act normally for about 30 seconds before turning off without user intervention. In dmesg, the error is as follows: 'mmc1: Got command interrupt 0x00060001 even though no command operation was in progress.' Is this caused by an app or is this a more complicated problem?

1. Is there such an app in existence already?
2. Would there be any software/hardware limitations that would prevent me from developing one? I don't want to start trying to develop it and then find out that it was impossible from the start.
Cyanogenmod 7.2 has vim (and nano) installed, but when i use vim, the full size of my terminal is unused, and the cursor position and what is displayed become asynchronous. I have tried setting TERM=linux and TERM=xterm (I'm using OS X terminal which emulates an xterm), but neither get me a working vim. vi, which is part of busybox works fine. nano also fails to use the height of my terminal window, and additionally the enter key is broken.
Any way config to get a working vim using android?
when i will install backtrack 5 for android from this topic here: URL..... i get this in Terminal Emulator:

sh-4.1# cd backtrack

I don't really know where to put this topic but anyways my problem is that i need to edit a line in a file.
So i think of something like this
su
Cd /data/data/foldernameofapp/
Edit "file.dat"
Edit line 4 "text here 2"
i want it to edit like this "text here 3"
Change only the number. or replace the hole line with a new line where i only changed the number. btw the best is if the script can change a line and not find text and change. Because the number in the text i want to change can vary from different numbers.
P.S i can use root explorer and open the file with a text editor and change it, this works but takes forever P.S.S i got root

I made a tasker profile to scan face in every 15 seconds by using another plugin (smart stay). Some situations it gives "unable connect camera" error. When I run restart camera app I can fix this issue.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Nexus 4 which is bootloader unlocked and rooted. The USB port is partially faulty - it charges only at USB speed and is not detected as a device on my laptop. I've tried multiple cables, wall sockets and computers.
I do however have TWRP already installed.
Considering that fastboot from the PC is not an option (becase of the USB issue), can I run the fastboot commands inside the Terminal Command section of TWRP to flash a factory image of Android 4.3 ?
I'm asking because I've only seen guides to install recoveries, not ROMs via Terminal Command on phone.
Just got Samsung Galaxy S II and I'm trying to open a file in terminal emulator for android. The file is named 'setup.sh'. When I type 'sh setup.sh' in terminal, it writes back 'Can't open setup.sh' The file is saved on the phone. How to open it?

I have Samsung Galaxy ACE which is rooted. Till y'day I was using CM9 Beta 8 ICS 4.0.4 and it was working well.
I installed CM10 JB for Galaxy Ace alpha1 from "hxxp://maclaw.pl/?page_id=180#comment-3642"
Now the problem is, JB doesn't have File Manager installed and I need to install TB to revert my backups.
Due to some unknown reason I am not able to access internet on my device either through GPRS or 3G connection.
I am desperately looking for a way to access my SDCARD wherein I have all my apk's which I can install however, without File Manager I am not sure how to install an apk.
I did some google search and came across topics about installing apk using Android SDK etc.. however I would not want to work on SDK as I feel its bit tedious job for me.
I also tried Android Injector however that didnt work even if I have enabled USB debugging Mode for adb + apps.
Now, I am hoping that, I can use the Terminal Emulator which is preinstalledo n my phone to install apk present on my sdcard.
However, I am not sure how to do that, what are the steps to install apk present on my sdcard from Terminal Emulator available on my phone.
Here are some of the screen captures [URL] ......

I'm having a problem with unlocking my phone. Some of my friends tried to unlock the pattern but after 20 failures the phone blocked. Now I have to submit my google login so I can get back on it. The problem with that was that I was on vacation abroad so my 3G and wifi were both turned off. I've read about other problems like this and came to a point where I was trying to turn on my wifi with adb. I found that I could use the command "svc wifi enable" and I tried this several times, every time with the same result: I think the command starts but then gets killed before it finishes.
