Earlier today I came up with the idea of a sudo implementation for Android. I mean, it's pretty tiring to have to enter 'su' first before issuing root commands, right? Sometimes we even forget to do that.
Description:
Well, this isn't a binary, but a script. What it does is just take the commands you pass to it and append it to 'su -c.'
I know it's dead simple but I wanted to bring this over to Android in an easy way, and I had free time
Usage:
Code:
sudo [command] - run [command] as root
sudo -b - use bash as root
sudo -s - like -b, but with sh
sudo -h - display the help message
Download:
Dropbox
Put it in /system/bin or /system/xbin, set perms to 755.
Changelog:
v1.1
• added support for parameters passed to the command that needs root privileges, e.g 'sudo mount -t'
v1.0
• initial release

I have the Android Revolution Rom, but Terminal is not already installed, and it wont let me install it Will a direct download of an apk file work?
Hi. I was have the same problem.
For me the solution was enter on recovery and wipe cache.

OK I found an apk but it says "Failed on 'download' no such file or directory
Do you have adb installed on your computer if you do then type
"adb shell" in a command prompt window. Then type those commands mentioned earlier.

This is not the place to request guys...please maintain the decorum and rules...its a general section post ???
He's right, this is the wrong forum
But here are the steps you will have to follow:
A:android-sdk-windows installed
B: (on your phone) go to menu>settings>applications>development and make sure usb debugging is checked.
B1: Connect your phone with the computed in CHARGING MODE
C: the file you are pushing must be placed in the tools folder of adb
so if you are pushing file "build.prop.txt" this needs to be downloaded/copy and pasted in C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
C1: open command promt
C2: type cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools [or your sdk directory]
C3: type adb remount
C4: type adb devices
C5: type adb push FFFFFFF.FFF /#####/######
ie: adb push mms.apk /system/app => this is the command you need actually.
C6. type adb reboot this is how you finish

Here is the link for 3.0 Sense mms.apk: http://minus.com/l4xYSsH3jAPbz
Sorry, i've posted in wrong section for my mistake using tapatalk
thank you very much for answer, but mms app from 2.10 crash on 1.47 rom...
So, as the name says, OTA-Updater (Script) for LG Optimus One (no, every device )
You can also use it on Linux, e.g. Ubuntu, Debian and Mint!
You need:
- A server:
I'm using Square7
- A rooted phone
- Busybox
- Terminal Emulator
This Script will not search for updates in background, you need to start the script (via Terminal Emulator) to check for updates
I'm not responsible for any damage to your phone.
PLEASE READ EVERYTHING CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING SOMETHING LIKE
'This doesn't work!' or 'That's spamming!!!'
Guys, there is a REPORT-button, use it instead spamming the thread!!!
1. First, create your own server, I'm using Square7 or you can also use Funpic;
I recommend that you use Square7
2. Install Busybox from Play Store (Busybox Installer), if not installed. It's pre-installed on almost every ROM
3. Create a file called "version.xml"(what file (e.g. xml,txt) doesn't matter) on your server, and type in it the latest available version.
YOU NEED TO EDIT THE FILE EVERYTIME YOU UPDATED THE ROM
4. Now, create a file called "update.xml" on your phone, located in /system/ (Don't forget to mount system) and type in it the running version on the phone
So, now the script
The script should start with this:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
___
Check if user is running as root;
If no, then message "You are not running this scripts as root."; Abort:
Code:
id=`id`; id=`echo ${id#*=}`; id=`echo ${id%%\(*}`; id=`echo ${id%%gid*}`
if test "$id" != "0" && test "$id" != "root"; then
echo " You are not running this script as root."
exit 0
fi
___
Mount system read-write:
Code:
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
___
Now, the script should search for updates; first download a file (I'm using .XML file; doesn't matter what file):
Code:
wget -q http://your-server.server.com/version.xml -P /sdcard/Folder/
___
Compare downloaded file with "update.xml" on /system/:
If files are the same (No update), Message: "No update available."; Abort
Else (Update available), Message: "Update available"
Code:
if diff /sdcard/Folder/version.xml /system/update.xml
then
echo "No update available"
echo "Aborted"
exit 0
else
echo "Update available!"
fi
___
Clean up folder:
Code:
rm /sdcard/Folder/*
___
Update available, download "update.zip" (Read everything carefully, if you read everything carefully, you'll know what the file should contain...):
Code:
wget -q http://your-server.server.com/update.zip -P /sdcard/Folder/
___
Unzip "update.zip":
Code:
unzip -q /sdcard/Folder/update.zip -d /sdcard/Folder/
___
Set permissions:
Code:
chmod 0777 /sdcard/Folder/updater.sh
___
Update ROM:
Code:
sh /sdcard/Folder/updater.sh
First phase done, save the file as "update" (Not .TXT or XML, nothing) and copy the file to /system/bin/ and set permissions
___________
Update.zip
So, now the update.zip:
This file contains system-files, the new update.xml and the updater-script (.sh, not the updater-script in flashable packages!!!)
So, first, you need to SAVE the files to the update.zip, I mean do not compress or something else, only SAVE, else "Unzip" wont work
SAVE all changed files to update.zip
Upload the update.zip to your server. You need to edit the update.zip everytime, when you updated the ROM
Now, the updater.sh:
It should start with this:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
___
Now, the changed files should be copied to them right location:
I've only changed the build.prop, it's a example, you can change everything you want:
Code:
cp -f /sdcard/Folder/build.prop /system/
___
COPY THE NEW update.xml TO SYSTEM :
Code:
cp /sdcard/Folder/update.xml /system/
___
Reboot:
Code:
reboot
___
And done!
If you want to update:
1. Start Terminal Emulator
2. Type su and press ENTER
3. Type update and press ENTER
4. Updating...
Customize it, and add more functions, but I'll update this script anyway.
___
My "Update" in /system/bin/ looks like this:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
id=`id`; id=`echo ${id#*=}`; id=`echo ${id%%\(*}`; id=`echo ${id%%gid*}`
if test "$id" != "0" && test "$id" != "root"; then
echo " You are not running this script as root."
exit 0
fi
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
wget -q http://cloudos.square7.ch/Update/One/version.xml -P /sdcard/CloudOS/update/
if diff /sdcard/CloudOS/update/version.xml /system/update.xml
then
echo "No update available"
echo "Aborted"
exit 0
else
echo "Update available!"
fi
rm /sdcard/CloudOS/update/*
wget -q http://cloudos.square7.ch/Update/One/update.zip -P /sdcard/CloudOS/update/
unzip /sdcard/CloudOS/update/update.zip /sdcard/CloudOS/update/
chmod 0777 /sdcard/CloudOS/update/updater.sh
sh /sdcard/CloudOS/update/updater.sh
And my updater.sh:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
cp -f /sdcard/CloudOS/update/build.prop /system/
cp -f /sdcard/CloudOS/update/update.xml /system/
reboot
If you want to use my work, then your work must be open-source, too!
CHANGELOG:
06/08/12:
- Added "Check root before updating"-feature
04/08/12:
- Initial release
Plans:
- Better thread-design
- Improved script
Smart kid, LOL XD

How you did to create the version.xml file on the server? And in what server you bases the update? Magic update?

Just create a version.xml, type in the,latest available version (e.g. 1.0.1) and upload it. Square7, I said. Read my post.

You can google for it, but some guys are too lazy...
So, create a server on Square7 and download FileZilla or also another FTP Client.
Start FileZilla, and configure it like this(in this example, my server is "cloudos.square7.ch"):
Server: cloudos.square7.ch
Username: cloudos
Password: Don't think I'm stupid
Port: Don't enter anything
And press "Connect". Now you have access to the server. On the left side, you see your files, located on the PC.
On the right site, the files on your server. On the left site, search for the file you want to upload and douple-click it
or drag & drop it to your server. Done!
Hi guys,
I had some free time and decided to write this script specially for Terminal Emulator's users like me.
It's a simple script allows you to:
Backup
Restore backup
Flash
Reboot in any mode
Copy the script to /system/bin
recovery and /or kernel IMG files without the need to input so long codes again and again.
This script will make a new folder named Recovery-Kernel-Tools in your internal storage, including 3 more folders inside it:
Backups (max one backup for each partition, names are "case-sensitive")
Flash (but any recovery.img / boot.img to flash them, names are "case-sensitive")
Input (for future use)
Everything is self explanatory, when you execute this script for the first time, it will ask you to set your partitions, you can change them later at any time.
If it's useful for you and you need more options, feel free to suggest me.
Download link: ReKeTv1
After downloading, cd to installation folder and input:
Code:
su
sh ReKeTv1
If you're using Script Manager, just execute it as root.
Latest busybox is required.

sdb shell
busybox "anycommand"
For ex:-
busybox kill
busybox date
busybox bzip2
busybox fstrim
Will this help at all with failed to install issue many are having.
Hey man,
Thanks very much for your work. Would you mind explaining to us the potential of busybox on Gear 2 ?
Cheers
You are most welcome, I did not build these binaries. I took them and make a batch script to install them onto the gear 2. Experienced users and developers can make use of busybox to improve the watch. For example by utilising the sysctl command. I don't know all of busybox applets, but this is an example of what u can do
