I'm using ICS (AOKP with some CM9 patches). I'd like "adb shell" to bring up bash instead of mksh. Is there any way to do this? I tried linking /bin/sh to `which bash`, but that caused system problems--I lost USB debugging completely and had to restore from nandroid backup.

I have a netbook with Android installed. Is it possible to access the bash shell?

Nandroid before going any further!
Files you'll need:
QuickSSHD (Download this from the Market. $1.50). I'm just going to assume if you're still reading, you know what this is for and how to use it. It's braindead simple. I think dropbear can be installed and configured manually, but for the $1.50...meh.
The rest are zipped up here: terminfo.zip, nano, bash, profile**
Unzip bashnano.zip onto your SDCard.
From adb shell:
CODE:.................
I'm not sure if this setup will have any impact on sh scripts being used in the various ROMs, so use this at your own risk.
This will give you full bash over adb, but I haven't figured out where profile goes to add terminal/color et al. for adb.
i've been trying forever to make the default apps to stick, but each time the phone reboots - it will always ask me again which app should be the default one.
i've tried using 'default app manager pro' but it has done nothing.
this problem has become worse in recent days - now even without rebooting, the default app doesn't get saved even when i click 'Always'.
I'm using Note 3 on 4.4.2 Stock rom.
I want to override the default android messaging application.
If I receive a sms or mms I want to send that to email but i don't want any notification on phone.
So basically I want to replace the default messaging application.
How can I make my application the default one that receive the sms?
Can you make "recent calls" tab the default screen rather than the dial pad tab?
For me, chances are that I'd call someone that I've recently called or talked to.
I rarely use the dial pad anyway. I don't use the dial pad tab as often as the contacts tab.
I have purchased iball slide 3G 7271 ( 3G model ) (Android version 4.0.4) in India. Available Interneal SD memory 2GB.I have external micro SD card slot expandable upto 32GB.
I have downloaded and installed many games in it...but now whenever I try to download new ones , it says "INSUFFICIENT SD MEMORY"
In order to use my external SD card for installing the games and other things....
I have gone through Google search and found ""FolderMount "" software and downloaded to my tab.
I have installed also. It was successful.when I open FolderMount, it says......""serching for root "" ( with one EXIT button to cancel)....and doing nothing beyond that.
Unix shell users might find this useful. It's a bash script that adds intelligent tab-completion for "adb" commands and options: http://github.com/mbrubeck/android-completion
If you've written any other shell completion scripts for the Android SDK, let me know. I'd be happy to add them to this repository.

I want to implement that when you open up the internet browser it gives you two options: regular browser and Mybrowser (third party browser which is made by me). If you select the regular browser it says that the phone cannot access the internet unless it is on the Mybrowser. Can we implement this feature? If yes than how?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI don't know if this is the right forum for my questions, but I'm sure this will be appropriately moved if it's not. I rooted my EVO and flashed a ROM that has Launcher Pro installed. While I was playing with the phone I chose for the default launcher to be used. I'd like to change that now and can't find a way to make LP my default launcher.
Second, I'm not 100% sure about this, but I believe that most or all of the Sense widgets cannot be used while LP is being used. If that's the case, are there alternatives to the bookmarks widget and the Friend Stream widget?
And lastly, can anyone confirm that the EVO has LED colors other than red/orange and green? Those are the only two I've seen.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to show a large number of EditText controls on a screen, each of which will only allow entering 0-2 digits. The default EditText size is too wide for me to show enough EditText controls on a screen, but I have been unable to figure out how to make them narrower. I have tried the following attributes in XML: android:maxLength="2" android:layout_width="20dip" android:maxWidth="20px" android:ems="2" android:maxEms="2". So the question is: how can EditText be made smaller than default?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a setting, app, etc. that will make the "dial pad" show by default when I make a phone call?
Basically, there are few numbers I dial that use an automated system and I'm required to press certain numbers to continue and I grow tired of selecting the number pad myself.
It's not as important on incoming calls, but would be nice there as well I guess.
I'm currently having trouble with a SlidingDrawer. I want it to be closed when the application starts so it doesn't get in the way. However, it is determined that it will be open, despite putting slide.close() in the onCreate() of my activity. It seems to be closed if i use slide.animateClose() instead, but this slows my application down loads.
How do I make it closed by default? code...
