You might get some false positives in AntiVirus. Http.exe gives Norton a WS.Reputation1.Threat, which is what a lot of android toolkits get. This file acts as a web server so it is classed as malicious to some anti- virus programs.
Make sure you have KDZ file
KDZ file can be a test version, which can be the official version, the version can also be a CSE

Install apps over ADB
Install apks on any Android device running any Android version over ADB!​
Hi all,
From a long time i was fiddling around with a problem of installing/downloading apps after installing a new ROM.
Thus i came up with an idea of a Batch File to install all of your apks from your system
to your phone in a few tips and taps. Hah! Found my solution .
How does it look?
To see some screenshots, please click below.
Tested on
The script had been tested on Nexus 5x, Nexus 5, Moto G4 but should work on any android device.
Downloads
Google Drive - Here is the link to Drive.
Link Below - You can also find the file below.
Installation instructions
Prerequisites
1. Platform Tools for Windows (ADB),
2. APK files,
3. Target phone connected to PC and
4. A cup of COFFEE or TEA as you like it.
Process
1. Download it from the attachments below or from the drive link above or here.
2. Copy the file to the ADB folder.
3. Execute the file.
4. You can either place your apps in "D:\Apps" folder. (Sllloooowwwww.....)
OR​Change the folder location in batch file itself. (Requires some Coding Skills)
OR​Batch file will ask you to change the location, if required. (Easy Installation, Pick Me!)
Troubleshooting
I don't think it's needed. But even then if you get any problem do write. I'll be happy to resolve it.
Enjoy, and also don't forget to write anything (Good, Bad or Thanks etc.)!

thank you so much if works like a charm!

Been locking for something similar.
Is it possible to take that script to next level, and make it as, a list of apps, and for them to be downloaded on the phone. I mean give order through ADB for each apps step by step, instead of folder, to be downloaded.

how to add online option like google drive folder in to the script

General Seeking Help for fixing vmware tools in Android x86_64 images

Hello Friends~!
I decided to play with some forks of android and chrome os in vmware this week, it was a lot of fun!
A problem I would like to create a solution for, is the inability for vmware tools to install natively.
Here is a toolset I prepared called "droidvmtools" DOWNLOAD
I was able to create this toolset based off of the prelGlibc25 Linux iso that came with VMWare, that is stored in Windows in this directory:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If you care about the extra steps added to "droidvmtools" I tried to document that process HERE
This exercise is performed using this Prebuilt copy of PrimeOS for VMWare DOWNLOAD
In theory, this method should work on other android images with root access, then likely fail as this example does at the end.
INSTALLATION:
Obtaining the perl binaries:
In termux run the command
Code:
pkg install perl
Then in Root Explorer, go to
Code:
/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin
and copy the perl binaries.
Now paste the binaries to:
Code:
/system/bin
To install the Toolset:
Extract droidvmtools and paste it to the root file system. The video goes over this step at 2:34 if you need reference. ( I also used my yt channel to easily dl the tools youtube.com/@jennn/about the tools are there if no usb)
Open a terminal emulator and type:
Code:
su
chmod 777 -R /droidvmtools
Then in Root Explorer, open droidvmtools, select all, copy, and then paste the contents to the root file system
You will be prompted with this message, select these options:
Now when you type:
Code:
perl run.pl
The tools are able to start installation but they crash at this part:
This is the part I am stuck on. I had never heard of recursion until this happened..
Here is a PASTEBIN dump of the code, maybe someone is able to look and see why this would be happening?
This thread is in preparation for a megathread I want to make. If you want to preview some of the images early see HERE
PLEASE NOTE:
I Understand that "Vmware Tools is not supported" in Linux let alone Android, blah blah. Let's try!
I also already know about and have tried every emulator in existence... So Please! Let's refrain from "just use x emulator", this is about problem solving.
