[Utility][WIN] [Updated 09/04]FakeShell for ADB

Have you tried using the ADB shell from windows?? Are you as frustrated as I am??
Here is the answer.
Introducing FakeShell for ADB - the ultimate terminal emulator for android power users
Features:
* The closest you will ever get to a Linux Terminal on a windows machine
* Most of the features of adb shell which were only available to linux users (like tab completion, termio support etc ) are available on windows
* Uses the core components of Konsole terminal emulator from linux. So linux users will feel right at home
* Has built in adb, so no need to install Android SDK
* Apps like vi, which were not working correctly in windows version of adb-shell due to lack of termio support, works flawlessly.
<more features to come>

Now it works perfectly! Thank you for the great work!
How about ability to change font type & font size on the next release?
By the way, the settings dialog still shows "PTPTestApp Settings" on it's title.
Keep up the good work!

[WINDOWS/LINUX/MacOSX][NodeJS] Android Debug Bridge Tool

Hello all!
I am back at it again with a new Android Debug Bridge GUI, now written in NodeJS!
Features:
Install APKs
Custom TWRP integration
Fastboot commands in one click!
Backup device via android or twrp backup methods
build.prop reader (soon to be editor)
Root checker (Soon to be root installer too for LineageOS devices)
Custom Commands
Multi-device support
It has the same basic features that my Older ADBGUI application had but with the added benefit that it will work on Windows, Linux, & Mac! (AndroidSDK needs to be installed on Mac in order to use, Minimal ADB installed on Windows in order to use, and android-tools installed on Linux in order to use)
Some features still do not work, but it is currently work-in-progress. It also can be used as a Kiosk in cell phone repair shops to quickly run diags on Android Devices.
This application is written in NodeJS and is built to run under Windows and Linux however it should (untested) be able to run under Mac as well.
This application should NOT - I REPEAT SHOULD NOT be run on a computer that can be directly accessed outside of the local network.

Thank you! It's based on my adbgui idea from 2012.
Sent from my Moto G4 Play using XDA Labs

#bump (sorry)

Is this the same project as photo attached??
What do you mean by ""This application should NOT - I REPEAT SHOULD NOT be run on a computer that can be directly accessed outside of the local network."" ???
Why would you not have the computer connected to WIFI? Is this a licencing issue?
I cannot understand why no one adjusts the name slightly when reviving these projects (e.g. adbGUI v2 OR.... adbGUI for MAC, etc).
So Linux only support??
EDIT: Looks like the project is now "ADBWUI" @ https://github.com/mitchellurgero/ADBWUI

This project is stale. I wouldn't use it. The warning is there because it runs a webserver without any authentication for the UI. This project runs on NodeJS - so supports any OS that supports node.

Android Kitchen can't detect Java.exe during ROM (.zip) packaging

Hey guys
Till a few days back, I was a complete noob at making android roms and porting, but in these past few days, I've learnt a lot, thanks to wonderful tutorials on XDA. I'm trying to port LG Power X 's rom for my Micromax MEGA 4G Q417 device, and everything is all well and done and configured, but I'm getting struck here at this screen in Android Kitchen.

It says that I probably do not have JAVA JDK installed, but, I DO HAVE IT. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Here is my .bash_profile if it helps...

What am I doing wrong? I'm trying since yesterday to fix this, but, even after countless frustrating attempts, the error persists. I now have no other option than to ask the help of you guys here. Please help!

[GUIDE] setup fake captive portal with android hotspot.

EDIT: This method is outdated, please find android app source in next post
If you want to redirect clients of your android hotspot to custom web page(on connection), then you are on wright thread.
what you are looking for is a captive portal.
Let's make it.
requirements:
Rooted device
Terminal emulator app.play store link
palapa web server app installed. download here
Patience
Installation:
Open palapa web server app and click install.
download captive_portal.zip attached below and extract it to /data folder (use current folder option).
Now open terminal type
Code:
su
chmod -R 777 /data/captive_portal
Then place your html file in /sdcard/pws/www/ and rename it to index.html (you can also use php files instead).
Running:
To start captive portal make sure that your hotspot and data is off.
open terminal emulator and type
Code:
su
cd /data/captive_portal/
./capstart
if you got an error, stop and start again like this
Code:
./capstop
./capstart
now turn on hotspot
voila! youre now hosting a fake captive portal. check it by connecting another device to your hotspot, you should probably see "sign into network." notification
To stop it, type following in terminal
Code:
./capstop

captive portal has got many potential use cases, from spoofing public WiFi splash pages to serving locally stored educational content easily.
Though above method works fine, to make it a bit more easier, we decided to make an app. so, with my inexpert JAVA skills, I made an app.
download it : View attachment mobile-release.apk.
currently, it has very minimal UI and options.
It is working as expected on my rooted Lenovo k8 plus device. But, has some problems on android 9+ devices.
if you got a rooted android device, please install it, use it! and test it!​
So dev,
we need your help in making this app more reliable and feature rich.
any major or minor modifications are welcomed.
​
Edit: Thanks for your support devs. contributions to GitHub repo is on pause, will be resumed soon.

Hi devs,
New alpha Release!
Certainly there are some bugs.
find APK attachment below.
Steps to follow:
Turn on hotspot.
press that solo start button.
Edit: Thanks for your support devs. contributions to GitHub repo is on pause, will be resumed soon.

Hello [email protected]
I've downloaded the latest apk on my rooted google pixel 4 running android 10 and granted it super user access.
when I launch the app and press the start button my hotspot automatically gets turned on all well and dandy. When I try and connect from my iphone I don't get redirected to the default html page.
PS: the hotspot on pixel gets broadcasted from wlan1 not wlan0, so I tried modifying the source code from terminal but had no luck.
Any help would be appreciated

hello, can you send the captive_portal.zip download link, because from the apk I can't use it because my android version is too old

Hi,Can you please send me the captive_portal.zip Thanks

hello , can you send the captive_portal.zip download link. because from the app I can't use it because my android version is old.

How To Guide Linux emulator--Kali Nethunter-- open source for moto g stylus 2021

------------ So I was just messing around on my rooted moto G stylus 2021 (Minsk) and found this pretty cool open source that basically runs a pc type system on the phone I don't know what kind of things you can do on it really maybe you do I don't know but ima just give yall my steps to install it and try it out ------------------
.
.
.
.
.
-1. go to this link and install aurora droid - https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.aurora.adroid/ -
-2. open the app and look up ' Nethunter ' 'Nethunter terminal ' and install them both
(--- and also look up ' Nethunter Kex ' ---- install that)
-3. open Nethunter and navigate to kali chroot manager and you should see an install chroot or kali chroot tap on that and wait for the installation to complete.
after you should see something like this,
{
"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"
}
-4. now go navigate to Kex manager on Nethunter app and toggle localhost only then tap on setup local server it will ask for a password just type one press enter then retype it then it will ask you if you want a view password I just type n and press enter
-5. now select user and toggle (root) OR kali and then START SERVER it will start then after it says server started wait till the phone reboots try not to do anything while u wait it lags your phone HARD but after it reboots unlock your phone like normal and Open the app Nethunter Kex
-6. it will look like this then type your password from before and tap on start.
-7. and there you go now you are running Linux Kali Nethunter on your phone!
I think it's pretty cool myself so let me know what yall think it's been ages since I owned an android that's rooted I've missed out on a lot it looks like hopefully there's more to come for the moto g stylus 2021 after all Also I think the stylus is perfect for this.
