android shell command explanation - Android Software Development

Shell is a program that acts as an intermediary between the user's operating system. Users can run programs, create a pipeline of the process and save the output to a file and run more than one program within a same time.command contained in the android operating system can be seen in the directory / system / bin.
akmd
am
app_process
cat
chmod
cmp
dalvikvm

etc.
can anyone explain use command

Dealing with busybox LS output in Windows

If you are using ADB Shell on a Windows machine and try to LS with busybox on your phone it will add color coding along with directory and file names.
To get rid of this you need only need to type [1] in the command prompt.
If you would like an LL type function added you can also put in [2].
[1] alias ls='ls --color=never'
[2] alias ll='ls -la --color=never'
Is there any way to get these aliases to stick?
The aliases go away every time I open a new ADB Shell. :\
##########edit1
I found that you can use PuTTYcyg to properly display the colors if you have Cygwin installed on your machine.
I just selected "Cygterm" for "Connection type" and put "adb shell" in "Command (use - for login shell)".
I would still like to have an alias for LL at least if we can figure out a way to get the aliases to stick.
Thanks!
##########edit2
In case people have no idea what I'm talking about.

And now color just looks like one of the weirdest words to me after looking at it for so long....
COLOR.
I got an LL going if anyone is interested. Basically using this guys instructions but making it for ll instead of dir.
1) Create a file named ll in /system/xbin
With this in it [NO COLOR]:
Code:
#!/system/xbin/sh
ll(){
ls -la --color=never [email protected]
}
ll [email protected]
OR
With this in it [COLOR]:
Code:
#!/system/xbin/sh
ll(){
ls -la [email protected]
}
ll [email protected]
2) Set file ownership/permissions
Get an ADB Shell:
Code:
cd /system/xbin
chown 0 ll
chmod 755 ll
The LL command will work immediately after setting ownership/permissions on the LL file. It's a workaround for now but works great.
Updated first post.
Not at all
The shortest way to do it is:
Code:
# alias ls="ls --color=never"
What I wonder is how to get rid of the annoying ECHO..
Long term fix?
Any better ways to fix this? I never used to have this problem, but all of a sudden, after messing with ADB over WiFi, now I do have this problem

The alias only works for a single cmd session

Small update: I noticed that I actually only have the problems with ls -al when the phone is fully booted. When I use adb booted in Recovery (CWM) the file listings are fine.
It's possible that I have never used adb while the phone is fully booted before, and just assumed that the Recovery behavior was universal and when I got the funky behavior, it wasn't messing around with ADB, it was just because I didn't know what "normal" was.
Short term fix is still just to use an alias for ls
But you have to redo it every time you restart adb

[TUT] Linux in chroot on your iconia

So, many of you want to run a full-size linux on your iconia. Unfortunately due to the fact that acer are a bunch of stupid mofos not releasing kernel source code and do not allow to flash unsigned ROMs we'll have to run it in chroot within android.
First thing to do is to get yourself a rootfs of linux. You can use angstrom, ubuntu.. I'm building debian using multistrap, the config is below. You'd better use pre-built ubuntu/backtrack and skip up to somewhere between steps 4 and 5, unless you have experience with dpkg and apt-get.
Code:
[General]
arch=armel
directory=/home/alexander/builds/multistrap
cleanup=false
retainsources=true
allowrecommends=false
noauth=true
unpack=true
aptsources=Grip
debootstrap=Debian
[Debian]
packages=screen openssh-server alsa-utils wireless-tools wpasupplicant nmap netcat
source=http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian
keyring=debian-archive-keyring
suite=sid
[Grip]
packages=locales
keyring=emdebian-archive-keyring
source=http://www.emdebian.org/grip
suite=sid
Now we need to get it to iconia somehow. Running it from microsd would be incredibly slow and internal ssd is formatted to vfat. So let's loop mount it.
1. Create the loopback image
Code:
#700 mb
dd if=/dev/zero of=debian.img bs=10M count=70
mkfs.ext2 -f debian.img
2. Mount it as you always do.. on your desktop yet
Code:
mkdir /mnt/debian
mount -o loop -t ext2 debian.img /mnt/debian
3. Copy the desired files.. As a root user, you can cd to the rootfs (generated by multistrap) and
Code:
tar cvp . | tar xvp -C /mnt/debian
4. unmount the image.. (umount /mnt/debian) and copy to the /sdcard. I copy to the /sdcard/linux/debian.img. Also, I use the /sdcard/linux/uroot directory to mount the image on the tablet.
5. now, you need adb or terminal emulator and superuser permissions ('teh rewt')
Now let's make some script, name it android_sh and put it to /bin in /sdcard/linux/uroot. And make it executable (chmod +x /bin/android_sh)
Code:
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
export USER=root
export HOME=/root
export TERM=linux
if [ -z "`pidof Xtightvnc`" ] ; then
vncserver -geometry 1280x740 -depth 8
else
kill -9 `pidof Xtightvnc`
rm /tmp/.X11-unix/X*
rm /tmp/.X*lock
fi
/bin/bash -
Ok. now make another script, in /sdcard/linux
Code:
#!/bin/sh
LOOPBASE=/sdcard/linux
LOOPFILE=debian.img
LOOPTARGET=uroot
cd $LOOPBASE
if [ -z "`grep $LOOPBASE/$LOOPTARGET /proc/mounts`" ]; then
echo "mounting $LOOPFILE"
mount -o loop -t ext2 $LOOPBASE/$LOOPFILE $LOOPBASE/$LOOPTARGET
else
echo "$LOOPFILE already mounted"
fi
for i in dev proc sys
do
echo "processing $i"
if [ -z "`grep $LOOPBASE/$LOOPTARGET/$i /proc/mounts`" ]
then
echo "mounting $i"
mount -o bind /$i $LOOPBASE/$LOOPTARGET/$i
else
echo "$i already mounted"
fi
done
if [ -z "`grep $LOOPBASE/$LOOPTARGET/dev/pts /proc/mounts`" ]
then
mount -t tmpfs none $LOOPBASE/$LOOPTARGET/dev/pts
fi
echo "chroot into $LOOPBASE/$LOOPTARGET"
chroot $LOOPBASE/$LOOPTARGET /bin/android_sh
now, execute it (sh /sdcard/linux/chroot.sh). You should be in root shell now. If you're building debian using multistrap, configure the packages (dpkg-configure -a). Remember I told you to keep out of debian? Dash package is somewhat broken so you may need to lurk through mailing lists to make it install.. And you need to manually add your sid/testing mirrors to the aptitude config.
So what now? Install tightvnc server (in debian/ubuntu, use apt-get update; apt-get install tightvncserver), exit the shell and launch chroot.sh again.
If you're building rootfs yourself, don't forget to install some x desktop environment. I use lxde on debian, it is lightweight and starts automatically with tightvnc
Now, you can use the vnc client on android to connect to your X11. When chrooting, tightvnc wil tell you the number of x session, so use it as the last digit of the port (5901, 5902 etc). I welcome suggestions on how to improve the android_sh to cleanly kill all tightvnc servers and remove temporary files so that the port number is always the same
In the end you may or may not get something similiar to this:

P.S.
I recommend you to install Hacker's Keyboard which will give you the tab key, esc and arrows simultaneously and allow to use cool software like vim and emacs without pain
https://market.android.com/details?id=app-org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboard
U.B.D.Man...
Cool...But I got stucked at the first step. Where can I get debian.img?
you create a new file named debian.img using dd, then you format it to ext2 using mkfs.. well. you can just take backtrack image from xoom. essentially it's just ubuntu with some software added
I'm just curious why you chose ext2 as opposed to ext4? Given that the filesystem is actually a file on a filesystem, I sort of understand ext2, especially considering you can mount it with the ext4 driver now.
This probably sounds like a stupid question, but for some reason I cannot use bash?
It may be that my paths are not configured properly, but i dont have a bin at the "/" level. I have looked in /system/bin and /system/xbin, but have not found bash there either.
I installed busybox and have been able to perform root tasks, so I am not sure what I missed.
because.. you don't have bash.. you should have it in your chroot. if you need it in android, just install it (like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537827)
I installed bash according to the link you posted, but I still don't have a /bin outside of /system. I did change the above scripts to reflect this by saying:
#!/system/bin (but then I get the error 'event not found')
My prompt reads: "sh-3.2#" after reboot, which I understand is bash replacing the stock terminal.
I tried creating the /bin directory in the root, but even with root terminal, it said it was read only. Do I have to remount the root and then create a /bin directory?
When I rooted, I don't remember their being a lengthy discussion about bash installation, or the creation of a /bin directory.
I welcome all suggestions, as I am trying to learn more about the inner workings of the tablet, but still have little experience.
you need bash only in the linux in chroot and therefore do not need to modify scripts.
anyway,
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp bash /system/bin
chmod 755 /system/bin/bash
mount -o remount,ro /system
then you can start bash by typing 'bash' in shell
Hello,
I have tried and I still can't get it run. I am not used to Linux stuffs and scared that I may screwed up my tab. Can you please pack the required files and upload it so that we can follow easier? something like this http://www.secmaniac.com/may-2011/backtrack-5-on-motorola-xoom-in-10-minutes-or-less/ would be great.
Thank you.
PS: I sincerely want to get BackTrack on my tab so that I can run R on this

I ended up installing bash, but I still had problems with chroot and getting the scripts to run, so I decided to reverse what I was doing. In the process of trying to remove the bash shell and replace with the stock sh, I must have messed something up.
I tried a factory reset, and when I loaded back up again, I can't get wifi to connect. My suspicion is that there is at least two separate things wrong:
-My shell is somewhere in permission limbo or non-existant
I try running >adb shell and I get:
"- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -"​
-The permissions on my wpa_supplicant are probably messed up, hence I can't connect to wifi
Any suggestions?
Well I tried a few more things:
-Tried copying over bash to /system/bin, got an error that it is a read-only file system. Funny, because I need shell (chmod?) in order to repair the shell, those bastards.
-Tried installing apk using adb, got same message about 'sh' missing. I think I will have to reflash a system.img, but I can't seem to find the Wifi-US with a working link.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Hey guys, could you upload and send me the link of a video of this working? Cause I love the idea of it but I'm not sure if its really practical

[HOWTO] Run startup scripts using Chulri's rw root

I couldn't run scripts in init.d, and it took me a while to figure this out, so I'm sharing. There is more than one way to do this.
Step 1. Install chulri's rw root.
Step 2. Create a script directory and a runall script to run all the scripts in a given directory. To do that, you can type the following in an adb shell:
Code:
su
mkdir /data/local/bootscript
chmod 755 /data/local/bootscript
cd /data/local/bootscript
cat > runall
#!/bin/sh
for x in /data/local/bootscript/*.sh ; do /bin/sh $x ; done
(You can copy and paste that into a DOS window running adb.) Now press ctrl-d, enter. Then continue:
Code:
chmod 755 runall
Step 3. Edit /init.rc. You can do that on-device with vi and ssh, or you can install an editor that preserves Linux line-endings on your desktop (I use CONTEXT). I'll assume you're doing this with adb. So on the desktop do:
Code:
adb pull /init.rc init.rc
Now, edit init.rc on the PC, and to the section listing all the services, add:
Code:
service bootscript /data/local/bootscript/runall
enabled
oneshot
Then put it back on the device:
Code:
adb push init.rc /tmp
adb shell
su
mv /tmp/init.rc /
Step 4. Now you can put whatever scripts you want to run in /data/local/bootscript. Just make sure you they have a .sh extension. All scripts will be run with /bin/sh and there is no need to specify #!/bin/sh . Also, there is no need to chmod the scripts to render them executable. You can just copy scripts in.
To disable a script, just change its .sh extension to .disabled.
There are, of course, other ways of doing this.
great tutorial!

The Android Shell
A "shell" is a program that listens to keyboard input from a user and performs actions as directed by the user. Android devices come with a simple shell program. This shell program is mostly undocumented. Since many people are curious about it I thought I'd write up some documentation for it.
Currently this documentation is incomplete, sorry!

Common problems
The built-in shell has very limited error handling. When you type a command name incorrectly it will say "permission denied", even though the real problem is that it couldn't find the command:
Click to expand...

Code:
$ dir
dir: permission denied <---- this is a misleading error message, should say 'dir: not found'
$ ls
... listing of current directory
The PATH variable
The Android shell will run any program it finds in its PATH. The PATH is a list of directories. You can find out what your shell's PATH is set to by using the built-in echo command:
Code:
$ echo $PATH
/data/local/bin:/sbin:/vendor/bin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin
Depending upon your shell, you may see a different result.
Built in Commands
Every shell has a few built-in commands. Some common built-in commands are:
echo -- prints text to stdout.
set -- sets shell variables
export -- makes shell variables available to command-line programs
cd -- change the current directory.
pwd -- print name of the current directory.
Commands
To find out what commands you have available to you, use the "ls" command on each of the directories in the PATH variable.

Finding documentation for the Android commands.
Many of the Android commands are based on standard Linux (or bsd) commands. If you're curious about a command, you can sometimes learn how it works by using the "man" command on a desktop Linux or OSX (Apple Macintosh) computer. The Linux or OSX version of the command may be different in details, but much of the documentation will still apply to the Android version of the command.
Another source of documentation for people without a Linux or OSX machine handy is to use a web browser and use a web search engine to search for the text: "man Linux command-name".
List of commands
The following is a list of the commands that are present on a Nexus S phone running an Android 2.3.3 "user-debug" build. Many of these commands are not present on a "user" phone. (They are missing from a "user" phone because they are specific to developing or debugging the Android operating system.)
Code:
$ ls /data/local/bin
/data/local/bin: No such file or directory
Notice that by default there is no /data/local/bin directory. You can create this directory using the "mkdir" command if you like.
Code:
$ ls /sbin
opendir failed, Permission denied
The /sbin directory exists, but you don't have permission to access it. You need root access. If you have a developer phone, or otherwise have root access to your phone you can see what's in this directory.
Code:
$ su
# ls /sbin
ueventd
adbd
# exit
$
Notice that the shell prompt changes from a '$' to a '#' to indicate that you have root access.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Notice also that neither of the /sbin commands are useful to the shell -- the adb and ueventd files are 'daemon' programs used to implement the Android Debugger "adb" program that is used by developers.
Code:
$ ls /vendor/bin
gpsd
pvrsrvinit
Vendor/bin is where device vendors can put device-specific executables. These files are from a Nexus S.
Code:
$ ls /system/sbin
/system/sbin: No such file or directory
This directory does not exist on a Nexus S.
Code:
$ ls /system/bin

Versions of the Android Shell
Android 1.0 used a shell that had no tab completion or history editing.
Android 2.3 added history editing. You can for example use the up/down arrows to edit previous commands.
Other shells
Busybox
Busybox is a program that contains a shell and a set of command line utilities. Search Android Market for "Busybox" and you should find some versions you can install. The Busybox shell includes tab completion and history editing. Some versions of Busybox for Android do not require that you root your phone.
Debian utilities
You can install the full Debian shell and utilities. (Debian is a popular desktop Linux distribution.) I don't know the details, and it may require a "rooted" phone. Try a web search for "Debian Android install".
Custom ROMs
Some custom ROMs come with their own shells and utilities. If you are using a custom ROM, check its documentation to find out what's available.
How can I view stdout outputs in terminal emulator window?
For example with dd command, not specifying output should display it at current terminal, like in linux, but actually doesn't. Any ideas?

Similar to linux terminal commands I use
Nice work though, great guide, thanks dude
W!LßSO @ XDA
Great guide, but you have forgot a very useful command: grep
It allows to apply filters to the output of the commands. The syntax is:
Code:
command | grep filter
For example, to list only the apk files inside a folder:
Code:
ls /folder/to/list | grep .apk
Great guide!
IMO dmesg is also important. Maybe you should add in a description for it?
Dmesg --> prints the Linux kernel output, which is different from the Android system output, logcat. Useful for checking hardware and to see if modules started up succesfully. Also useful for debugging in conjunction with logcat.
Code:
cat /proc/kmsg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt
Copies the dmesg output to a file fled dmesg.txt on the sdcard
And
Code:
cat /dev/log/system > /sdcard/logcat.txt
Copies the logcat output to a file named logcat.txt on your sdcard.
Also, you missed out the parted and e2fsck commands, used for partitioning and checking filesystem integrity.
Also, the command free (display free ram/swap) is not included.

[email protected]:/ #setprop net.cdma.rstp.proxy.addr 0.0.0.0;
[email protected]:/ #setprop net.cdma.rstp.proxy.port 0;
[email protected]:/ #setprop net.cdma.httppd.proxy.addr 0.0.0.0;
[email protected]:/ #setprop net.cdma.httppd.proxy.port 0;
Is above command right..???
after that i ran "getprop" i don't see effect of that command.
Can you tell me the right way or command to change my rstp & httppd setting...? cause my Epic4G cannot play video streaming after flashing CM10 nightly.
thanks,
adit

Hi... Before this I have rooted my phone since yesterday when I accidentally copy su file from "/system" to "/system/bin/" andnow I can't get root access because on Superuser I check the su version was 3.1.1 but there got red words maybe it try saying that I put su file in wrong location and I can't move it back because my root explorer can't get root access and it just show Root Explorer acess denied by Superuser. Terminal emulator also access denied. One more I'm using Sony Ericsson W8 and it can't unlock bootloader. Could someone help me to remove su file from "/system/bin". Thanks You

Ad Blocking on ZTE Open

Until there are ad blocking apps for FFOS it needs a DIY method.
I'll assume you know how to use adb and have it set up on your machine. I'll also assume you have rooted your phone following the instructions here.
I use Linux so my commands may be a bit off in places.
1. Collect a suitable hosts file. I used the one on my Android phone but this one seems to update regularly http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
2. Save the file as 'hosts' to a known location on your PC.
3. Open a shell window (command window) on your PC and check adb works.
Code:
adb devices
should return roamer2. If not, on your phone, go to settings > More Information > Developer - and check Remote Debugging.
4. In the shell window - change directory to where you have saved the hosts file. then type:-
Code:
adb push hosts /sdcard/
5. When that completes type:-
Code:
adb shell
you'll see $ prompt
Code:
su
If you are rooted correctly you'll see # prompt
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /system
Mounts the system folder for read / write permissions.
Code:
cat /system/etc/hosts
Should show just '127.0.0.1 localhost'
Save this if you want as hosts.old
Code:
busybox mv /system/etc/hosts /system/etc/hosts.old
Now replace the hosts file with the new one:-
Code:
busybox mv /sdcard/hosts /system/etc/hosts
To check your hosts file has been replaced type
Code:
cat /system/etc/hosts
And lots of domain names will whiz past.
All done.
