Hi,
I have made a little .sh script as a test.
But when i use terminal emulator to run it i get the 'permission denied' error even though my phone is rooted. Please tell me what to do to run a .sh file on my phone.
Script:
#!/bin/sh
echo hi
Thanks in advance. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
i think that if you do:
su (to get superuser privileges)
sh your_script.sh
might work....
alternative is to install gscript and put your script in the gscript folder on sdcard....
The console needs to be granted superuser access, then ran as sh script.sh or bash script.sh. afaik at least. Youll probably have to use su like the person above said.
I did the su command. But i still can't open it. All other commands work.
Ok so it sorta worked.
I used the cd command to get to the file.
I used su command.
Then i typed sh script.sh .
Nothing happened, no echo or anything, just a new line with # on it.
What's happening.
Btw thanks for the replies.

Maybe stating the obvious, but did you CHMOD the file to be +X ? Use Root Explorer or chmod at a SU capable command line to change the file mods to allow execute.

This should be the solution. X is the execute bit. Basically without that bit set on the file permissions, the OS won't allow that file to be executed as a program.
chmod +x filename.sh
Try running that command in terminal emulator and it should clear things up.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
I used that command and it said 'bad mode'.
It still doesn't work.
If you are running the script with this:
Code:
sh script.sh
then the executable bit doesn't need to be set in order to execute it, since you are specifying 'sh'. If you were trying to run it with this:
Code:
./script.sh
then it would require the executable bit to be set.
In an attempt to answer the question, where abouts is your script saved and which user owns it? Just as a quick test on mine, I made a script named test.sh (containing the same lines as yours) on the root of my sd card, cd'd to it and ran sh test.sh, and that seemed to work. That script ended up being owned by 'system'.
As a test to make sure sh is behaving, can you run the following from the terminal:
Code:
sh -c 'echo hello'
EDIT: note that all of the above was run as a regular user, not root.
Yeh it said hello when i did the command you said.
It must be a problem with the file in some way then. Can you run the following from the folder that your script is in and give the output?
Code:
ls -l | grep script.sh
Also, what did you use to make the script - terminal in Android, or adb'd it from your PC etc?
(Aside: just a thought, you probably can't do chmod's on sdcard files if it's formatted to FAT32 since FAT32 doesn't understand Linux permissions)
you can also try an app i found some time ago. SL4A
I made the file with silveredit. Just renamed .txt to .sh.
Btw i got it working with gscript, thanks for everyone's help
Run a reverse tethering shell script
I am trying to run a reverse tethering shell script using Android terminal Emulator(ATE). The script is saved as tether.unicode.sh under /sbin/. Its content is as follows:
Code:
ifconfig usb0 192.168.137.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 192.168.137.1 dev usb0
setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
setprop "net.grps.http-proxy" ""
I executed the following command in ATE and got error.
Code:
$su
#sh /sbin/tether.unicode.sh
ifconfig: not found
netmask: not found
255.255.0: not found
..
#
Excuse me posting in this very old thread. I hope its better to continue here instead of opening a new thread.
P.S: I am able to execute all this statements by copying and pasting line by line in ATE.

it's because android doesn't know about these command, this is a native linux command, try to install busybox, edit your script like this
Code:
busybox ifconfig usb0 192.168.137.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
busybox route add default gw 192.168.137.1 dev usb0
busybox setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
busybox setprop "net.grps.http-proxy" ""
I hope these helpfull

Even though your device is rooted, android environment won't allow applications to execute 'sh' commands.
As android security architecture says, applications run within a secured execution space inside Application Sandbox, sh execution can bypass this security.
If there are any exceptional cases where few devices allow 'sh' execution, well... OEM's needs to be reviewed again.
Answer
Maybe you can try the method that I have specified and check whether it works

the script is already run and no need to type the command again, note: some script files can damage your system if run twice

You have to put the script somewhere that it has permission to execute from, copy it to /data/local/tmp first. Then in your terminal run each of these commands;
su
cd /data/local/tmp/
chmod 0755 MyScriptName.sh
./MyScriptName.sh
Hi guys,
hope this is the right forum.
I switched from iPhone4 now to the new Samsung Galaxy S II with 2.3.3 and brought my bluetooth Sennheiser MM450 which I would like to use in flight.
Anyway when I turn on the flight mode I can't turn on Bluetooth anymore!?
On my iPhone this was possible.
Is there any way to get Bluetooth in flight mode working as I dont wanna have my phone searching for networks during flight.
Any other App/hint etc. for this?
My Samsung is rooted by the way...
Like this?
Otherwise, on a more serious note: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3289, see comment 42 there.

Thanks.... maybe I am too rookie for that... I installed QuickSSHd and logged in from my Putty but can't issue these commands:
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
# adb remount /data
adb: not found
# sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
sqlite3: not found
So I searched but following issue:
# find / -iname adb
/sys/devices/virtual/usb_composite/adb
/sys/class/usb_composite/adb
# /sys/class/usb_composite/adb
/sys/class/usb_composite/adb: permission denied
adb is supposed to be used from your PC, need to install Android SDK there, not try to run it from phone shell.
Thanks, will try that out now and just installing JDK and Android SDK R11...
Ok. If you get permissions denied stuff, I would suggest loosely following this one:
http://dylanmtaylor.com/2010/10/19/closer-to-a-proper-froyo-limit-removal-fix/
For the remount /system thing, you need to check the actual device being mounted by running something like:
Code:
$ mount | grep /system
as it differs from device to device.
(Other way would involve getting ro.secure=0 which might be more complex than needed here. You can check what you have by getprop | grep ro.secure)
Hi xda-mates. In this post I'm gonna show you, How to get wifi monitor mode on your device without external wifi adapter. If you don't know what is "wifi mode" goto wikipedia. The package consist from drivers, some wifi tools and aircrack.
Monitor Mode getting steps:
1. You have to root your device.
2. Flash CM 9.1.0.
3. Check out, your using originally cwm kernel included in the firmware you flashed.
4. Download my package(the password is my nickname).
5. Extract it to your sd.
6. Open up the terminal.
7. Type
Code:
su
cd pathToYourSd
sh install.sh
it will simply install all stuff to your system.
8. Type 'wmon on' in the terminal to activate monitor mode (type 'wmon off' to activate managed mode).
That's all. You have installed all that you needed, activated monitor mode and now you can use aircrack.
Troubleshooting:
Problem:
Code:
cannot find wireless tools, exiting!
Solution:
a) You must execute wifi tools (aircrack also) from root directory!
Code:
cd /
b) Check out of iwconfig, iwmulticall, iwpriv existance in /data/local/bin/.
Problem:
Code:
insmod: can't insert 'dhd.ko': invalid module format
error: SIOCGIFFLAGS (No such device)
Solution:
a) Make sure you are in supported rom and kernel.
b) Check out the file existance in /data/wmon/ (3 file).

GREAT!
Thanks man! i was waiting for someone to go into this much detail, but does the wmon siyah mean that i can dualboot CM 9 and w/e rom ( in my case alliance) and get this to work? my problem with this before is that nothing would happen after my wifi is disabled and module is "loaded", also what do you mean run aircrack from the root dir? like root of the sd?
P.S. Testing now on the Galaxy S2 LTE version ( Rogers)

Use iwconfig wlan0 instead of airmon-ng wlan0. And make sure that you are in the root directory.
Code:
su
cd /
wmon on
iwconfig wlan0
iwconfig wlan0

Don't pay attention to "managed mode" lettering, you are in monitor mode. To test monitor mode working type 'airodump-ng wlan0' and you will see that everything works perfect.

THIS WORK, first, and ofc, THX man
I had a sgs2(official), rooted in gingerbread, and then i flashed ICS with CM 9.1, then i folllow yours steps, y putted my sgs2 in mode monitor and i checked.
Just one question, i searched in google, and ask in IRC, but i don't find the answer:
¿Do can i use the same steps to get WPA as Ubuntu or Backtrack? else... ¿do you know some link where a tutorial get wpa via sgs2?
I want complete the last step, thx for your time, and sry for my english

You can use all stuff like in ubuntu/bt.
Mode inyecction?
Thx for answer me, i did decide install another time backtrack in my sgs2(i removed ), but i want crack wpa without brute force or diccionaries, because it is imposible.
¿Is there some way to crack a wpa without brute force or diccionaries? ¿Do i could implement rainbow tables in sgs2, or is there some way to hashing with aircrack?
Thx for your time,

Aircrack-ng is included to the package you installed. Just type aircrack-ng after switching wifi monitor mode
from a day to other, i can't use this
i didn't use somedays, and now i can't use, it is appears as delete, or simplely, not work. I did install applications in my sgs2.
But now i can't run it. I tried reinstall, but always put in the output:
"wmon on" not found
"wmod on" not found
"wmod monitor" not found
i did that in /, and i executed the install.sh in sdcard as you said in your post.
In internet i not found nothing, and i know programming bash a little, i tried solved gave wmon bit executable but is useless, i follow all steps rights as you said. The only one thing interesant when i execute install that is the output:
Installing Driver...
OK
Installing Utils...
OK
Creating Symlink...
link failed FIle exists
link failed File exists
//I think here is the fail of my steps, i think that make reference to /data/wmon, but i am not sure, i checked that files, but i can't solved
OK
Fixing Permissions...
OK
Temporary FIles Cleaning...
OK
Installation COmpleted! To start WiFi monitor mode just type : "wmod monitor"
I am sry if i am heavy, thx for your time.
This is pretty cool, I managed to make some progress, however got error at authorization stage at line:
aireplay-ng -1 0 -a MAC wlan0
Waiting for beacon frame (BSSID: .......) on channel -1
Couldn't determine current channel for wlan0, you should either force the operation with --ignore-negative-one or apply kernel patch
same error with injection
I'm pretty new to linux stuff, is there any way to bypass this?
Another thing is that I can't use wi-fi after using monitor mode, even if i shut it down (wmon off) until phone restart, is that alright?
Thanks in advance, and keep doing the great job!

Greetings! I know there have been many topics on how to run scripts at boot time, most suggesting the safe way using Script Manager. But I'm encountering an odd issue:
I installed dropbear via opkg as described here and I wrote a script that would execute as root and start it. The script executes fine when I run it manually (either from SManager or from my terminal emulator using sh) and I am able to connect to my phone via ssh. However, when I set SManager to run the script at boot, the script executes fine, the processes are running (I can see them in the output of ps), the output from the processes (saved to log files) is the same as when I run them manually (and the connection can be established), but there is no TCP port associated with dropbear. I check using netstat - when I run the script manually, I can see the listening port, but not when the script is run automatically. Consequently, I cannot connect to my phone even though dropbear is running and reports it's listening on the port I specified. I tried adding a 2 minute delay in the script before dropbear is started (to allow the device to fully boot up) and I can confirm dropbear is started well after every other process, but the result is the same. I'm not sure if this is a problem with dropbear, SManager or something else.
I tried putting the script in /etc/init.d and making it executable, but it is not being run at all, I don't think scripts there are being read (there is no such entry in /init.rc that checks scripts in /etc/init.d).
I'm running SlimBean 4.2.2 on Samsung Galaxy S with 3.0.71-Semaphore_JB_2.9.18s kernel. Here follows the script:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# dropbear and ssh are installed in /data/local/bin
export PATH=$PATH:/data/local/bin
sleep 1s
dropbear -p 42549 -v &>/sdcard/droplog
sleep 1s
# set up remote port forwarding (reverse ssh) to my PC so I can connect to my phone through its network's firewall
ssh -TfN -o "GlobalKnownHostsFile /data/.ssh/known_hosts" -p 4713 -R 4714:localhost:42549 [email protected]<my-PC's public IP address> &>/sdcard/sshlog &
anyone?

Hi guys,
I'd like to be able to change the mac address of my device to be able to use airport Wifi while on transit.
Here is what I do using tasker
1) Turn off wifi
2) Launch the shell script below
Code:
array=( 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 A B C D E F )
newmac=${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}
chattr -i /persist/wlan_mac.bin
sed -i "1 s/=.*/=64A2F9$newmac/" /persist/wlan_mac.bin
chattr +i /persist/wlan_mac.bin
3) Turn on wifi
But it doesn't work
/persist/wlan_mac.bin is successfully modified by the script but real mac address isn't.
Need your help!
chattr binary is not present on Oxygen Os...
So file gets overwritten while setting airplane mode on and off
It works!
Installed busybox magisk module (which includes chattr binary) and replaced chattr by busybox chattr!
Also modified script by adding command line toggle for airplane mode.
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
array=( 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 A B C D E F )
newmac=${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}${array[$RANDOM%16]}
busybox chattr -i /persist/wlan_mac.bin
sed -i "1 s/=.*/=64A2F9$newmac/" /persist/wlan_mac.bin
busybox chattr +i /persist/wlan_mac.bin
settings put global airplane_mode_on 1; am broadcast -a android.intent.action.AIRPLANE_MODE --ez state true
settings put global airplane_mode_on 0; am broadcast -a android.intent.action.AIRPLANE_MODE --ez state false
i can't thank you enough! i was looking for a way to hard change my mac and none of the rooted apps were working for me. just stumbled upon this thread and it's working good.
Can you guys guide me on How to run That script .. I've already installed BusyBox ..
Thank you so much

Save this into text file, upload to internal memory, name and extension is relevant (mac.sh for example, load to internal memory.
In terminal emulator:
Open directory with file:
cd /sdcard
Add rights to execute:
chmod +x mac.sh
Run:
su sh mac.sh

Hey there,
Looks like this method doesn't work anymore with pie.
Modifying /persist/wlan_mac.bin has no effect but managed to change mac temporarily (until next reboot) by using the commands below:
Code:
svc wifi disable
ip link set wlan0 addr 01:02:03:04:05:06
svc wifi enable
Modifying hostname method has also changed. It doesn't survive reboot either
Before PIE:
Code:
resetprop -v ro.product.name "newHostname"
#Toggle airplane mode
settings put global airplane_mode_on 1; am broadcast -a android.intent.action.AIRPLANE_MODE --ez state true
settings put global airplane_mode_on 0; am broadcast -a android.intent.action.AIRPLANE_MODE --ez state false
After PIE: net.hostname gets its value from system settings after toggling airplane mode on/off
Code:
settings put system oem_oneplus_devicename newHostname
#Toggle airplane mode
settings put global airplane_mode_on 1; am broadcast -a android.intent.action.AIRPLANE_MODE --ez state true
settings put global airplane_mode_on 0; am broadcast -a android.intent.action.AIRPLANE_MODE --ez state false
[/CODE]
Have you guys succeeded in modifying these permanently?
Karboush the first code actaully worked for me so thnak you .. i wish there was a script for this that actually can randomly change the macaddress .. would be great
thank you <3

Time to revive a dead thread. The new method using
Code:
svc wifi disable
ip link set wlan0 addr 01:02:03:04:05:06
svc wifi disable
Doesn't seem to work anymore. After I set the new Mac address I get an error saying
"RTNETLINK answers: Device or resources busy"
Does anyone know a fix for this or if I'm doing anything wrong? Thanks.
From what I understand, Pie uses a random mac address for each specific wifi connection and no longer reveals your true id.
Android Pie by default doesn't change your Mac address when connecting to wifis. The option can only be turned on by editing the system config.xml file, which idk how to do. h ttps://source.android.com/devices/tech/connect/wifi-mac-randomization
Anyone know how to edit it and turn on the option?
Well, after a bit of experimenting I found out a solution to this, bit some issues.
When you want to change your mac address put the phone into airplane mode. The. Put the code
Code:
ip link set wlan0 addr XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
There are some specifications though. Any letters put into it, hexidecimal or not, will make it invalid. And any zeros at the beginning of a pair will also make it invalid, so 01:02:03:04:05:06 would be invalid but 10:20:30:40:50:60 would be valid. The parsing must have changed. Anyone got any solutions to get letters in?

Did you have to do anything in particular to make this work? I am on 9.0.4 rooted with Magisk, using this app with mode set to airtable and it does not seem to work. The app is confirmed granted root access per Magisk.
The only thing I'm doing is set airplane mode and wifi enabled .. when I run the app the phone comes out of airplane mode .. not sure I see the "airtable" feature on this app ... Anyways wish you luck

I am using the latest BETA if that makes a difference
after updating to pie I can't change my Mac address anymore. tried it a few ways via terminal and tried at least 3 different apps.
it seems that as soon as I do ifconfig wlan up, or disable airplane mode, it gets reverted back.
if I do ifconfig wlan0 he ether 00:11:22:33:44:55 while the interface is up, it fails to authenticate me to the network
I may have to revert to Oreo
EDIT:
so after reverting to oreo, i still was unable to change the mac using the app that worked before. I found the values for the mac adderss in the file in /persist/wlan_mac.bin.
now, i tried changing these values but they kept getting re-written when i flipped Airplane mode off. so added the immutable flag to it after editing it. now the change is persistent accross boot
so after editing the file, do
chattr +i /persist/wlan_mac.bin

and whatever values you have for the interfaces should stick after you boot
i wonder if this would've worked if i tried it in android 9.... too lazy to factory reset again to try it out
keep in mind i was working with a oneplus 3t.
