I am stuck with executing a write command in the code:
Process sh = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su -c [command]");
OutputStream os = sh.getOutputStream();
String filePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath();
Toast.makeText(this, filePath+st+".jpg", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
//os.write(("/system/bin/screencap -p " + "/sdcard/img.png").getBytes("ASCII"));
// os.write(("/system/bin/screencap -p " + "\"/data/data/com.example.code/files/"+filePath+".png\"").getBytes("ASCII"));
os.write(("/system/bin/screencap -p " +filePath+st+".jpg").getBytes("ASCII"));
os.flush();
os.close();
sh.waitFor();
I have installed SuperUser.apk and placed the "su" binary file in /sdcard/Android/bin folder.
The Toast message itself is not coming up. I guess,
The answer is that the su is not generated by google. And the emulators wouldn't allow a java code to access the su if its not original. It worked fine with my device though!
