I'm running a N1, with Cyanogen 5.0.5.3 with Apps2SD.

Your program does not recognize apps installed to the SD. I believe the problem is that the current way Cyanogen (with the Nexus) manages Apps2SD is different then Apps2SD used to manage them.

With Cyanogen 5.0.5.3 for the Nexus One, you have to partition your SD card with an EXT4 partition. The apps are then stored on that partition (where exactly on that partition im not sure, maybe someone else can help out here).

So it appears your program is looking on the standard partition for the SD card, and is not recognizing the EXT4 partition, where Apps2SD is storing the .apk's.

That's my theory anyways. Not sure how accurate it is, but thats my theory.
[Android Apps and Games] rastandroid:
Did you install usb drivers for your device.Make double check in sdk ;)
[Android Apps and Games] rekrapg:
On the N1 with Cyanogen, the apps2sd method places the apps into /sd-ext/app and /sd-ext/app-private. Both these directories are from system root. Dunno if it's important but there's also a /sd-ext/dalvik-cache and a /sd-ext/lost+found. Information on cyanogens apps2sd method can be found here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Apps2SD_On_CM5

I hope you are able to get your program working for here too - although I know how to adb all the commands myself, I love your program it saves me so much time, and saves typo's too :)

Hi,

This is a very nice app :)

Feature request: Add tool to make "screenshot" of the device !

If this is possible. I know, there is separate way for this. I am just thinking to have it integrated in this tool.

PS: Any HTC Desire owner tested this? I am still waiting my device, hopefully next week.
[Android Apps and Games] PanPiotr:
thx for info, anyway program could check this path, it is my foult, i was lazy. I'll fix it in next version ;)
[Android Apps and Games] d3xtr0:
Seems to be very useful. But anyone tested it with Acer Liquid? Thnks.

Great Post!
[Android Apps and Games] PanPiotr:
I want to do it, bu i dont know how, yet.

Anyway in tools menu is ddms, you can use it to make screen ;)
[Android Apps and Games] cauli:
Is it not as simple as:

adb pull /dev/graphics/fb0 fb0.rgb565

or am I being naive?
[Android Apps and Games] PanPiotr:
Yes you right, but i know this already. The problem is, i don't know how to covert this format file to something readable for me :confused:

I'm noob, sorry :(
[Android Apps and Games] Ganii:
Tested at Motorola Milestone,rooted and without root!

Works perfect :D
[Android Apps and Games] cauli:
Don't apologise! You're writing great software that's very useful :)

If you're comfortable with twiddling bits it shouldn't be hard to figure out. In fact the most annoying part will probably be writing to the output format as doing that directly is tiresome unless the format is nice & simple.

I can't recall if the framebuffer is stored top to bottom or the other way, but you'd sharp find out if images turn out upsidedown. As to the data itself, as there's twice as many bytes as pixels, it's clearly just a headerless dump of the sequential pixel data, as the source & name implies. I'd also hazard a guess that the 16 bits making up each pixel is split 5 red, 6 green, 5 blue (can't be 100% sure they'll be in the order rgb, but probably & again it'll be obvious after one test image is processed).

Incidentally, if it's not obvious, the reason they give the extra bit over to green is all because of chlorophyll - the eye is more sensitive to green, as there was lots in our environment, so it makes sense to give it the greater chromatic resolution.

Sorry if this comes over as a ramble & of no help ;)

I was going to write a conversion routine myself but in the end found a piece of software to do the job.

If you do code this from scratch, I'm not sure what the simplest output format would be, but I was going to go for one of the 24 bit uncompressed windows bitmaps, as it looked like the code would be simple & a quick google turned up the header format, but maybe there's a simpler raw format - I've not done any serious coding in years.

OTOH, you might be able to find some open source code to do the job. Hmm, hang on... The app I use (for screengrabs & to make bootscreens) is RGB565converter

I don't know what the license conditions are, but if you read the first post DeToX-cz has split off the conversion functions into a separate dll & offers its use to other coders. He also says he will release source (C#) when complete & commented, though the last activity in that thread was September 09. Looks like the dll at least would be one solution for you.
[Android Apps and Games] PanPiotr:
thank you very much!

i sow this already, but problem is i don't know c# ;)

anyway i got it almost working, should be fully working in next hours :)

big thx to guys from 4programmers.net for help!!!
[Android Apps and Games] cauli:
Congratulations :) You certainly seem to make quick progress. Mind if I ask if you ended up using existing code or wrote something from scratch? It's always interesting to read how other people solve problems.
[Android Apps and Games] PanPiotr:
it's working :D
[Android Apps and Games] cauli:
Awesome. Now how about adding a realtime update & video capture option? ;)

Actually, is there any tool that does that atm? I wonder what framerate is possible. I was joking but it would be really useful for video tutorials & demos.

You'd only need to throw a stream of .rgb565 data at ffmpeg, or just dump a sequence of numbered .rgb565 files to disk & leave it to the user to use something like ffmpeg to turn these into a vid.

Sorry - I tend to ramble a lot & am typing as I think. Still, it's always an option if you're ever short of something to do ;)
[Android Apps and Games] PanPiotr:
you looking too far, i think max frame rate i can get is 5/sec like in screencast.

il be testing it tomorrow, for me is late now ;)
[Android Apps and Games] cauli:
Lol, I don't blame you. 5fps is probably a relief - if it had been 15 or more I might have had to give it a go myself ;)

Eww, just over 2fps from my Hero :/
[Android Apps and Games] britoso:
Quick question, whats up with the 0.7.8 installer?

In 0.7.7 I could simply launch the exe to run the app...but with 0.7.8 it says "Program copied important files to your system, program will clsoe now, but you can safely restart" :confused:

Clicking on the exe again makes it use 100% of my 4 cores and hangs.

Does it install itself somewhere else now? Or does 0.7.8 need a system reboot to work?

Update: I just needed to unplug my phone (usb) and re-plug it in. Works great.
[Android Apps and Games] Aqq123:
Thanks for this great program, PanPiotr! I'm looking forward to using it with my Nexus 4. Some notes:

1. My phone wouldn't show up in the device list. This was fixed by updating the adb.exe binary and the two DLLs to 1.0.31 (from .29) in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android Commander\bin" (aapt.exe doesn't need to be updated).

2. I am using 125% font scaling (1080p on a 13.3" screen). In the file list, fonts get too large and filenames can hardly be read. Good you have options to change the pixel dimensions and positioning for everything in the settings, but:

3a. The settings would not save. This was because the file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android Commander\settings.ini" could not be written. I changed the owner on "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android Commander\bin" to myself and recursively replaced permissions to Everyone / Full control.

3b. The settings would be saved from now on but would then be used only when running as Administrator. The solution is to copy the settings.ini from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android Commander\bin" to "C:\Users\[YOUR_USER_DIRECTORY]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Android Commander." All seems fine now.

Just wanted to post these, maybe it'll save someone some time.

(Android 4.2.2 JDQ39, Raw drivers from WugFresh's NRT, Windows 8 64-bit - for 32-bit the paths would be "Program Files" without " (x86)" I guess.)

Now on to actually doing something with the Nexus. Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] localfinesse:
Hi Aqq123,

Can you share the files that you changed? I'd like to make this work with my Nexus 4. I do not know how to update the binary and the two DLL files. Unless you know of a site that will tell me what program to use and how to do it.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Aqq123:
Sure. The DLL files (AdbWinApi.dll and AdbWinUsbApi.dll) are actually the latest version (2.0.0.0), so forget about them. You just need adb.exe version 1.0.31 (attached). Put it in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android Commander\bin" (it'll be without " (x86)" on a 32-bit system).

You can then run the Command Prompt (Win+R, cmd), and try:

cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android Commander\bin"

adb version

This should show "1.0.31"

adb devices

This should show something like:

List of devices attached
BLAHBLAHBLAH device

If it still doesn't show anything, the issue is with the USB connection (drivers?).

[Solved] Freeze on "Operation complete" after copying files

This is a wonderful program that deserves wider recognition. There's just one annoying thing about it and that is when copying or pulling files a small window pops up and fails to close even when it says Operation complete" (the files are copied or pulled correctly, no problem here). The main window underneath remains inaccessible and the only way out is to close the application.

A search reveals this doesn't happen to everyone. It happened to me though on Windows 8 (x64). It appears the program doesn't play nice when it's installed under %ProgramFiles% (or %ProgramFiles(x86)% in my case). Perhaps it's due to some permissions problem but I already took ownership of the Android Commander folder, and granted all permissions to Everyone on everything including child objects, so I'm somewhat out of ideas on what more could possibly be done.

Instead, what seems to help is moving the program into one's %USERPROFILE% (that is, C:\Users\<Your User Name> in most cases). There is a related issue (not nearly as annoying) that the settings are not preserved between sessions that also seems to resolve itself when the program is moved.

I think the solution available to the author is to make sure that all the written settings, etc. go into %APPDATA% or the registry, and nothing is written into the program files directory. Meanwhile, the above workaround seems to do the trick for me.

What's install app as private?

And, how do you do it? I didn't see an option for it.

Thanks again!

EDIT:I found it. Still would like to know what the purpose of private install is though.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] PanPiotr:
this option letting you install app in to app-private folder in system. used mostly for paid and protected apps. useful a lot but sometimes only, does it not changing anything for phone user. you can need it only if you installing app with has been backuped from private folder. but there is no rule for this. it is depends on an app, just some of them installed as normal app will tell you is pirated, with this option should be ok. if you try install any app my program will ask you about installation way before start.

I hope it was helpful (and readable enough) ;)

Changelog:

* before update delete settings.ini file from program dir

I'm a little confused, what setting.ini file are you referring to. Since I do not have a program dir for this, I was wondering where can I find this.
[Android Apps and Games] PanPiotr:
In version 0.7.8 and older patch in program Windows Files tab is split for 2 pats ("C:\" and "newdir\blabla"), in 0.7.9 path is in one piece. So if you using 0.7.8 and option to remember last dir, then in settings.ini program saving path in 2 parts (drive and rest of path). If you update to 0.7.9 and leave old settings, program will try load last dirs. Will live alone saved drive (don't need it) and load rest of patch as full, and will crash on start.

It is only about this.
