[Guide] Write a batch script + ADB/Fastboot commands

Write a batch script with ADB and Fastboot commands​
1. Introduction:
Hi guys,
First of all, I've some words to say:
I've decided to make a tutorial for beginners how to write a windows batch file with ADB and Fastboot commands. I think it's quite easy and everybody can learn it.
My target is, that all of you can write your own batch files to control your device.
You don't need any knowledges about batch files or similar things. It's just helpful to know the adb commands and how they work.
I hope you'll understand every step, I make. The guide is splitted in several parts.
If you want, I'll add some more tips and tricks.
2. Requirements:
Windows Computer
Notepad++
ADB Tools
Just search on the internet for those files. They are easy to find.
Create a folder and place your adb/fastboot files in it. Make sure that they are working
Install Notepad++ on any place on your computer
Open Notepad++ and create a new file
Go to Languages -> Batch and activate it
Save the file as batch file in your adb folder
Well, I think now we can start with the main commands.
3. Main batch commands:
In this section, I'll explain you important main commands for your batch file.
Don't enter the quotationmarks in your file.
"@echo off" - Is always at the beginning of your file. This command blocks the output of your command in the cmd
"echo TEXT" - Here you enter "echo" and your text at the beginning of the line. This text appears in the cmd. E.g. : "echo Hello this is my first file"
"echo." - Will create a blank line
"pause" - Will create a pause in your file. The file continues by pressing any key. A message for that appears in the cmd
"pause>nul" - Has the same function like "pause" but you won't get the output in the cmd, that you need to press any key to continue
":TEXT" - Creates a certain section in your script
"goto TEXT" - This command brings you to the section "TEXT" in your code. "TEXT" can e.g. include any certain command, you want to execute
Declaration of variables:
Now I'll show you, how to declare a variable
"set test= Hello XDA-Members"
The variable "test" includes the string "Hello XDA-Members"
To access this variable, you need to enter %test%
"set /p input= Enter your variable:"
Here, the user needs to enter something in the cmd. This input will be saved in the variable "input".
To access this variable, you need to enter %input%
You can select the variable name as you want.
Now we have already some commands, so let's try them out.
In my example, I'll add comments to the commands, which are written in blue. Please don't add them to yours.
The second "@echo off" is not necessary
So, now we save the file and run it with a double-click.
Your script should look like this:
(Not everything is in mine included)
Making a selection menu:
Now, we make a selection meu where the user has several options
Step by step:
Create a list with "echo" commands
Create an input variable
Create an if statement
Let's take a look at my example code.
You should already understand the old commands.
As you can see, this is still quite simple
If everything worked right, you should see this
Well, for the beginning that's enough. For the next step, you should know all these commands and how they work.
4. Including ADB/Fastboot commands:
Okay, now we'll start to add ADB and Fastboot commands to our batch file for controling our device with our tool.
The previous steps are the base for the following commands
First of all, we start with a quite easy command.
We want a batch file, which reboot our phone into Recovery,Bootloader or normal.
Now we need the adb files in our folder
Step by step:
Create a selection menu
Include the ADB/Fastboot commands
Let's take a look at my example code.
Our Reboot-Tool should look like this
These commands are still easy. You just need to enter your adb command
E.g.: adb.exe reboot recovery
Now we'll execute our file
You can see, that this tool is already very useful.
So, Congratulation to everybody who came so far
Are you ready for the next step? Let's go!
5. Including advanced ADB/Fastboot commands:
Okay, now we will add some more difficult commands to our script.
You need to know the old commands and how the work
Step by step:
Reboot device in different modes
Flash a custom recovery
Do a Factory Reset
Install Apps
Ok, let's take again a look at our example code
I won't explain the old commands, only the new ones.
Take your time and read it slowly.
The script is splitted in two pictures, so read both.
As you can see, we have now some more difficult codes, which include flashing Recoverys with certain file names.
Again, Congratulation who came so far.
6. Additional Commands:
- SOON -
7. Hints:
Now we are almost done with our first batch script.
At the end I have some more useful hints for you
Have always a clear structure
Take your time, it may not work for the first time
Read some other Batch-Guides on the internet
Just discover the batch coding and learn new commands, you can add to your script.
There are a lot of posibilities.
You can download the last script and the pictures from my dropbox:

Moreover check out my Universal_ADB-Helper, which is based on this:

8. Last words:
Now we are done with our batch script. I hope you enjoyed my tutorial and that it was easy to understand for beginners.
Moreover I want to say thank you at RootJunky who inspired me to start with batch scripting.

Reserved for later

Additional commands will be added soon.

Hi,
Thanks
I think the difference between our threads is that mine is a tutorial how do code such a tool and yours is the finished tool.
Some time ago, I've done something similar:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/utility-universaladb-helper-1-0-t2969165

Very Very DOPE! Im wondering if you can help me with something. I have taken your script to automate alot of my processes. Could you possibly help me with this problem im having?!?! Thank you in advanced!
Code:
:installA
cls
echo.
echo You will install an app
echo The app need to be in your ADB-Folder
echo Before you hit enter INSTALL "iKoNo"" on your FireTV
echo.
pause
echo.
echo You can find your IP by going to Settings > About > Network on your device
set /p ip=Enter the IP of your FireTV or FireTVStick:
adb kill-server
adb connect %ip%
adb install "C:\Users\demo\Desktop\FireTV\kodi.apk"
adb install "C:\Users\demo\Desktop\FireTV\settings.apk"
adb install "C:\Users\demo\Desktop\FireTV\llama.apk"
[CODE]Ok here I want some code to go where you can check and verify the top three were installed and if not stop the script i guess using
adb shell pm list packages <- just dont know the proper way of doing it. And does the syntax below look right? Im trying to mimic the functions that adbfire does to automate the LLAMA install. Posted below

Thanks for the response though lol

Hi,
Can you see what is the problem for my script? Fastboot devices doesn't appear...

Click to expand...

Why do you switch into another directory?
Place your batch and adb/fastboot files in the same folder.
Then try the following:
Code:
fastboot.exe
fastboot.exe devices
pause
Otherwise you can try to use yours but use "fastboot.exe" instead of "fastboot". Hope it helps.

How I created my batch file to run commands in windows, for Minimal ADB and Fastboot
LG V30 Just factory defaulted.
Here is a snipit of the text I used to create my windows batch file for Minimal ADB and Fastboot, to give app freezer by MobizSystems, owner permissions and then to disable 1 program I can't uninstall, and then to uninstall a bunch of programs from the current user.
This batch file is run AFTER installing app freezer, then uninstalling my google account (can't apply owner permissions if there is an account installed). The pauses are to allow me to to verify each different command ran properly, and to terminate the program if a command is not running properly.
This is NOT meant to be a complete list of programs to uninstall, just a small list to show you how the batch file worked for me.

I'm trying to create a little batch file to restart my new TicWatch pro it seems Not to measure my HR and other vitals whilst working out so I've thought that if I retstart it before going out for a run than it will be more likely to read correctly this is what I have now but it won't run the darn thing. I can do it manually but I'm missing the proper commands to automate in batch file format::
@Echo off
echo here we go.
pause
C:\Users\death\Downloads\MyBot.run788\lib\adb\adb.exe
adb devices
adb connect 192.168.0.53:5555
adb shell “pm clear com.google.android.gms && reboot”
Sorry scratch "pm clear" command darn it..
Also for some reason when tethered my PC doesn't see the TicWatch but I am able to connect via IP
Scratch that, it obviously wants to make me a liar I just tried again::
C:\Users\death\Downloads\MyBot.run788\lib\adb>adb devices
List of devices attached
192.168.0.53:5555 device
What happens::
I double click the batch file Echos:: here we go with request to unpause and then Nothing. I know its something simple but its alluding me pretty well.

i'm trying to create a batch to flash custom twrp recovery(for xiaomi devices), but if device is not connected it throws
error: no devices/emulators found
and i want to catch it to... well retry the rebooting to fastboot(aka bootloader), and i have zero idea how to do that, so i thought i could find some help here

How to install/enable uninstalled/disable app using adb command

Is it possible to reverse the process and to install or enable an app that has been previously uninstalled/disabled by one of the two adb commands below?
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall package_name
adb shell pm disable package_name

[GUIDE] Root + Clean up Kindle Fire HD 10 and install Google Family Link

I got a Kindle Fire HD 10 for my son and intended to have it supervised with Google Family Link. I was searching for a while how to achieve at the same time the following:
- root, debloat and remove ads ("special offers")
- have access to Play Store and all the google apps
- be logged on to Amazon account for Prime video access
- have the tablet be supervised by Google Family Link
The last part in particular wasn't working. A few discussions in Reddit and elsewhere suggested that it's not possible, as Google and Amazon don't (want to) play well together, and Family Link won't take over a tablet signed in/registered with Amazon.
After some trial and error I managed to achieve it, so I'm posting here for anyone who wants to do the same.
Here are all the steps I did:
- Follow this guide (including brick-unbrick) to unlock, install TWRP, root and debloat the tablet:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd8-hd10/orig-development/unlock-fire-hd-10-2017-suez-t3913639/
- From TWRP flash the ROM in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd8-hd10/development/rom-t3929969/amp/
- Boot and set the tablet up without registering it with Amazon, only Google.
- Set up Google Family Link. Sign in with the kid's account (approve with parent's as usual). I had to do it twice, the first time it gave me an error message, the second it registered.
- Install a launcher and set it as default. Instructions here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd8-hd10/general/successfully-changed-launcher-to-nova-t3744067
- At this point everything works except Amazon apps. Do a full backup from TWRP just in case the next step kicks Google out.
- Now we need to register with Amazon. If Google Family Link is used to supervise the tablet however, it won't work. So Family Link needs to be disabled temporarily and then set up again. So we deactivate Family Link (stop monitoring the child). Then we register with Amazon, and then we activate Family Link again.
- Fingers crossed, everything should work now.

Thanks for sharing!

Questions :
1 how to debloat? edit: never mind fount it. The problem is my device is showed up as unauthorized in Ubuntu. No issue with Windows.
2 I clean flashed that deodexed fireos ROM v2 and Wi-Fi is on and off. Any fix?

Excellent thread, thankyou!
I have one issue remaining. I cannot enable developer options (for ADB) using the"press on serial number 7 times".. nothing comes up. Also if I try to enable install form unknown sources, the setting app seems to crash back to the home screen.
I'm trying to sideload an APK and have tried enabling unknown sources by altering the SQL settings.db which seemed to work (the toggle is enabled) but alas, installs from unknown sources are still restricted.
Have you come across this in your install?
EDIT / SOLUTION: I found that this could be enabled through the parent app (phew!)

Can't seem to get this to work (haven't flashed the custom ROM as I'm only after the Family Link functionality) it gets stuck after I select "This device" then select the account I want to supervise - goes to a screen that says "Checking for updates" then after a minute or so it goes back to the screen asking me to select the device again, any thoughts?
Thanks
edit: the reason for the "Checking for updates" message, I think, was that it was trying to download/install "Family Link Manager" and it probably couldn't e.g. due to permissions, so I installed it manually from the Play Store - see my post below.

I understand OPs need to use family link since the internets a scary place, but...
I dont understand why we as a people are ok after google has proven they will kill anything that doesnt make or (legally) save them money.

Err...because they are a private business and that's the nature of capitalism. If you want a different legal framework talk to your government representative. Might bone up on the number of successful societies that assume control of private entities. History has a tale to tell.

Argh. Closer but now gets stuck on a different step!
Installed "Family Link Manager" and I can now get it to recognise the device and account I want to manage but when I get to the screen that lists the things a parent will be able to do and tap "Next" then on the popup tap "Allow" I then get a screen that says " Cancel supervision setup?" and the only buttons are "Back" (which loops back to the same screen i.e. does nothing) and "Start Again" which I obviously do not want!
I wasn't prompted to grant any permissions so I suspect this is the issue?
Has anyone got this far?
Edit: Enabled "Family Link Manager" as a device administrator and....still doesn't work. Damn.

2019 version?
Hi! Will this work in 2019 Fire HD 10? It runs Fire OS 7...

Depends, you can root if you are on 7.3.1.0, after that there are work arounds for most things...
unlock - No
TWRP- No
Root - Yes ( if on 7.3.1.0)
Debloat - Yes With or without root (possibly temporary but stable so far)
Launcher - Yes
Disable OTA (Likely Yes without root)
Disable Ad's (disable is working so far)
What are you looking to do?

Mostly, make Family Link work... Bloat/launcher /etc are not that important. lock screen ads I can Live with.
Thank you!

Ok, this might be a little necro, but I've got this working on a 2016 Fire HD8.
I'm factory resetting it and taking some more detailed notes, basically you need to install the mtk-su/root
Then all the google framework, play store and family link teen + family link manager....
Now I was stuck in a loop for "Also stuck on "Next, you'll activate Family Link Manager, which helps parents...".
And it kept looking between that and "Got It"...
I got an idea from a gmail crashing thread to use Link2SD to set apps as "System Apps"
This was the missing link, i got the system popup to accept new permissions which wasn't happening before and all was glorious.... now I'm not sure if there's a way to adb install as a system app, going to be looking into that as well...
I'm so excited because this actually makes the tablet usable for my kids again.

Steps confirmed for Fire HD8 2016 (Gen6):
1. Factory Reset
2. MTK-SU Root - Includes setting default permission to allow su/root
I used the batch file included from @Rortiz2 - HERE
3. I modified the MTK-SU batch file to add the following lines:
Code:
...
echo Completed! Now update the binary!
[B]echo [*] Running Custom Scripts...
echo [*] Debloating...
call debloat.bat
echo [*] Installing Google Applications
call play-store.bat[/B]
pause
...
4. Create the debloat.bat file in the same directory as MTK-SU.bat
debloat.bat
Code:

5. Download the Following APKs and save them to the apps sub-directory that you extracted from the MTK-SU archive:
com.android.vending_18.9.11-all_0_PR_295870256-81891100.apk

Here's a BUNDLE!
6. create play-store.bat in the same directory as MTK-SU.bat and debloat.bat

7. Update your SuperUser Binary by launching SuperUser (This is now an installed application in your app drawer). You should be prompted to update.
8. In the SuperUser application change the default SU permission to Grant vs. Prompt.
9. Reboot
10. Use Link2SD to mark all of the Google/Family Manager apps from step 6 as system apps.
- THIS IS THE MONEY - If you are stuck in activating Family Link Manager with the message: "This profile manager is required for Google Accounts managed with Family Link." This is the Fix!
- If you are unfamiliar with the application, just find the app in the main Link2SD list then hit the 3 dots on the top right, here you can choose to set as system application.
- This is the part that is kinda wonky, If someone knows a way to just install these applications as system application from ADB then I'll gladly take the Link2SD part out of here...
11. Open the Play Store and sign in through play store as kids account...
12. Authorize sign in as parent...
13 Continue to step through approval dialogue...
14 done..

Great instructions. I have already successfully performed this on a Fire HD 10. With the second, the Google Launcher does not start. If it is active, I only see a black screen with a clock and battery. When I activate the fire launcher, everything works perfectly. What can that be?

I'm wondering about the step 7 and 8, can you please provide details on how to do that ?
Thanks !

The MTK-SU Root no longer works on the latest FireOS 7.3.1.2 on Fire HD 10 (2019). So, no way to get root means no way to change Family Link to a system app means no way to activate Family Link which means no way to get a child account on the device at all. I guess the only option is to change the child's birthday to 1 day before 13 years old, wait a day, then convert the child account to an adult account and use the table with no parental controls.

I still can't get Family link to work properly but I was able to use a child's account on the Fire 10 by installing the Family Link MANAGER apk from apk mirror. I can't control the device from the parents app to the full extent, but I can still require that she gets approval for downloading any apps and the approval process works.
This was all done without root.

skybar87, can you explain how you got this working on your HD10? Is it a specific manager APK? I am trying on an 2018 HD8, but I always end up in the loop trying to activate the family link app, both the kid and parent versions. I tried just skpping the last step. If I do that, app approvals work for a bit but then it keeps signing out of the Play Store. All I want is the ability to approve app installs...

Did you miss setting one of the Google apps as system? Maybe there is a different launcher/apk needed for that device?

This is as far as you will get without root.
You need at least temporary root to get the google apps registered as system apps.
Without that the process will always fail.

adb command to get app list

Hello, can someone help me with adb pls?
With "adb shell pm list packages -f > c:\1.txt" I get a list of my installed apps as text file, is there any way to get a list of the installed default apps? Removing an app with "adb shell pm uninstall --user 0" removes it from the user profile, but I can reinstall it and I can reset my phone to get the apps back, that means they are all still installed on other level, is there a command like "adb shell pm list packages" to see the default apps? I want to get a list of the apps, user apps and system apps installed as if I had reset the phone or start it the first time.
Also, is there maybe a command for rebuild/delete cache? Just interested, because I have no idea if that is a thing today, with old Android versions it was helping sometimes but only possible with root.

With regards to apps that get installed by user ( called 3rd-party apps in contrast to system apps ) an app always gets installed in the space that's reserved for the user who invoked app's installation: typically it's user with id 0 - the default Android user. Knowing this then it will be clear that 3rd-party-apps on multi-user Android systems get installed in different user spaces.
Hence you always should add --user <USER-ID> to any action that should taken by PM.
To get list of installed system apps belonging to specific user you run
Code:
adb shell "cmd package list-packages -s --user <USER-ID>"
To get list of installed 3rd-party apps belonging to specific user you run
Code:
adb shell "cmd package list-packages -3 --user <USER-ID>"

With adb shell cmd package list-packages -s --user 0 it closed without anything
With adb shell cmd package list-packages -s --user 0 -f > c:\2.txt I get Unknown command: list-packages
Same with using "adb shell cmd package list-packages -s --user 0" and adb shell "cmd package list-packages -s --user 0" -f > c:\2.txt
What I'm doing wrong?
Also, that's not exactly what I meant, even if the command is working I don't want the list of user 0, I want a list of the default apps. I already debloat the phone, I want to see the apps I debloat, the apps that are installed on admin(?) level to see if I can reinstall something that I need.

adb shell pm enable does not persist after reboot

I accidentally copied the wrong command and used adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 $app instead of adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 $app
I can uninstall / install-existing it just fine but for some reason using enable doesn't work.
When I do adb shell pm enable $app I get an error message, when I use su it works, and when I first unfreeze it with sdmaid and then use the enable command it works too, however it is back to being disabled again after reboot.
I also tried adb shell pm default-state --user 0 $app with the same result.
It works just fine with other apps, but they are typically either disabled or uninstalled.
Now "com.android.sdm.plugins.connmo", "com.android.sdm.plugins.dcmo" and "com.android.sdm.plugins.diagmon" are both disabled and uninstalled.
I somehow was able to reinstall them and have that persist after reboot but they were still disabled after that.

Always get correct user id of user who should get prevented to run an app
Code:
adb shell "pm list users"
before running shell command like this
Code:
adb shell "pm disable --user <USER-ID> <PKG-NAME>"
and this using the same user id
Code:
adb shell "pm enable --user <USER-ID> <PKG-NAME>"
instead of stupidly using user id 0

What's the matter with just: pm disable com.annoying.app ?

The --user <USER-ID> parameter is usually needed on newer Android versions to specify which user ID the pm utility needs to apply the changes to.

would be great if it would work like that except it doesn't for whatever reason.
Is there a difference using "disable-user --user <USER-ID> <PKG-NAME>" vs "disable --user <USER-ID> <PKG-NAME>"?
I mean thats not rly my problem as I wanna *enable* it again, but yea..
running either enable or disable command in non elevated shell results in
java.lang.SecurityException: Shell cannot change component state for null to 1
which is weird as it does work for literally any other app.
using elevated shell it works, however it resets back to disabled state on reboot, which is even weirder given that the default state of this package would be enabled=1
and I should note that it mustve worked before as well, as it was originally enabled and I slipped in the wrong line and accidentally copied the command to disable apps instead of what I wanted to do.
And for some reasom that worked..
specifically the command I used was adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.android.sdm.plugins.connmo and it works for any other app to disable it and i can enable them right back.
