Running Shell commands though java code on Android?
To run root commands, you have to use the flllowing format:
public void RunAsRoot(String[] cmds){ Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su"); DataOutputStream os = new DataOutputStream(p.getOutputStream()); for (String tmpCmd : cmds) { os.writeBytes(tmpCmd+"\n"); } os.writeBytes("exit\n"); os.flush();}
where you pass in an array of strings, each string being a command that needs to be executed. For example:
String[] commands = {"sysrw", "rm /data/local/bootanimation.zip", "sysro"};
