General :: How To Send Email From Command Line Shell
Nov 14, 2012I am looking for a way to send an email, preferably with an attachment, from a command line shell script (bourn/ash/whatever-it-is). No user interaction is a requirement.
It looks like an "am start" command might be able to do it via launching another app, and I've seen some examples out there, but nothing that I've had success with.
I have a big rsync backup script that I run to back up my device to my server, but I want to be able to email myself a notification if the backup fails, along with a copy of a log file. This script runs on a regular basis via a scheduler without any user interaction, but I have noticed that rsync has been failing recently and I've needed to re-run it manually later.
I am a pro Linux sysadmin but don't know jack about Java. I do bash, python, perl, and some C. My current script is just a sh shell script.
FYI my device is a Nexus One on Cyanogen 7.2. FYI I own the mail server here. I use k9mail as my primary mail app but the gmail app could be used as well.
If there was just a "mail" command.
Android :: How To Send An SMS From A Shell
Oct 28, 2010I would like to be able to send an actual SMS message from a shell using just the command line and not relying on any apk to do so. I am interested in sending this message between phones, not from the emulator to the phone. For example, by running the command: service call phone 2 s16 "1234567890"
I can place a call from phone to phone using the command line. The 'service list' command shows an isms service, which I can't seem to provide the correct arguments for. I would assume that one of the args should be a PDU string but haven't had any luck so far.
Android :: Send Coordinates To Droid Through A Shell Script?
May 18, 2010I've got a question about android and GPS coordinates.
I've got a script done in python, which opens a socket and sends a bunch of coordinates to an emulator. On the emulator I have an application running where I've registered an OnLocationListener.
The idea is to capture the coordinates and animate the map towards those positions.
The problem is that android gets the first position, animates the map towards it and then ignores the rest. This has become a pain in the neck and is killing me and my developer team.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Adb Shell Commands To Change Settings Or Perform Tasks On A Phone
Feb 4, 2010How do I use adb to perform some automated tasks on my android phone? I need to find commands that I can issue from the command line (ideally, using a .bat file) that will be capable of more than simply opening an application or sending an input keyevent (button press).
For instance, I want to toggle Airplane Mode on or off from the command line. Currently, the best I can do is launch the Wireless & network settings menu and then use input keyevents to click Airplane mode:
CODE:.................
There are quite a few drawbacks to this method, primarily that the screen has to be on and unlocked. Also, the tasks I want to do are much broader than this simple example. Other things I'd like to do if possible:
1.Play an mp3 and set it on repeat. Current solution:
CODE:..................
2.Play a video. (current solution: open MediaGallery, send keyevents, similar to above)
3.Change the volume (current solution: send volume-up button keyevents)
4.Change the display timeout (current solution: open sound & display settings, send keyevents)
As before, these all require the screen to be on and unlocked. The other major drawback to using keyevents is if the UI of the application is changed, the keyevents will no longer perform the correct function. If there is no easier way to do these sort of things, is there at least a way to turn the screen on (using adb) when it is off? Or to have keyevents still work when the screen is off?
I'm not very familiar with java. That said, I've seen code like the following (source: http://yenliangl.blogspot.com/2009/12/toggle-airplane-mode.html) to change a setting on the phone:
Settings.System.putInt(Settings.System.AIRPLANE_MODE_ON, 1 /* 1 or 0 */);
How do I translate something like the above into an adb shell command? Is this possible, or the wrong way to think about it?
General :: How To Use SCP From Android System Shell
Nov 8, 2012I have an Amazon Kindle and the SGS2 which I take out and about with me.
I want to be able to transfer documents to and from the phone and Kindle (already got SSH access to the Kindle over WiFi) while out and about.
My phone is rooted and I've installed dropbear SSH. I can use connectbot to SSH into the phone locally but the shell I'm presented with doesn't see `scp`. I believe this is supposed to be included with dropbear? How do I get scp from this shell?
The reason I'm looking to do it all from a root shell on the phone is becuase I believe this is the only way to get access to the clients connected to the virtual access point. Hence I'll be able to:
be in the middle of the desert, create a WiFi tethering hotspot with the phone (though it has no signal), connect the Kindle to the phone via this access point, get a root shell on the phone and scp documents from the phone to the Kindle.
I believe I am as far as this final step but need an extra kick to get me there. Perhaps I need to install another shell?

Sep 9, 2012I am wondering what terminal command I can use to check if a process has been cached. On my Sprint Galaxy Nexus, rooted, with the latest build of the Paranoid Android jelly bean rom, I can go to my settings, click on apps, swipe to the "Running Apps" list, and click on the button at the top of the screen that says "Show Cached Processes," and that displays the list that I am trying to access. My reasoning for doing this, is to use "Secure Settings" in conjunction with "Tasker" to check if my "Groove IP" application is running. Initially, I was trying to use "pgrep -l com.*" and check that list for "com.gvoip" too see if "Groove IP" is running in the tray (pull down menu), but if the process is cached, it still shows up in that list. How to get a list of cached processes from terminal.

Apr 18, 2013What i'm trying to do is play PC games on my Nexus 4 over WiFi/3G. Which I can successfully do
The hurdle i'm trying to overcome however is getting my PS3 controller (Paired to my Nexus 4) to act as a gamepad on the PC's side.
I can successfully pair the PS3 controller and have it emulate mouse/keyboard inputs which is acceptable for keyboard buttons. But trying to use the right analogue stick as a mouse to look around is hopeless
Is there an app which can send gamepad inputs over the network? That way, I can select 'gamepad' in games and everything should work correctly.
General :: Installing App From CWM Via Shell Command
Nov 8, 2012The latest version of Google Now (2.1) doesn't like being flashed. If you flash it via CWM it seems to break voice search functionality, causing a force close.
Playing with the adb shell, I discovered that the pm install command works nicely:
Code:
pm install [APKNAME].apk
So, I thought this would be perfect to execute in a shell script via CWM/Edify.
So far I've tried all manner of commands. First I was trying the above command in a install.sh file, before I realised that "pm" wasn't present anywhere in /sbin/ (the header of my shell script is #!/sbin/sh").
So, I've tried this:
Code:
#!/sbin/sh
exec /system/bin/pm install data/media/install/Velvet.apk
Here is the update script:
Code:
ui_print("Mounting system...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
ui_print("Mounting data...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
[Code] .....
Which, copies the files correctly. This also isn't my first time running scripts in my installer, but this is the first time I've attempted this. To no avail. This same command works in the adb shell, though.
Also, is there another way of flashing that may work? I heard about putting the original file ("Velvet.apk") in /system/app and then putting the updated version in /data/appcom.google.andorid.googlequicksearch-1.apk but this doesn't work either.
Running the above script in Busybox installer's script running function also works perfectly. The only thing it won't do is install from CWM.

Feb 11, 2012Cyanogenmod 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.
