How to start an application using Android ADB tools

How do I send an intent using Android's ADB tools?

Solution 
  • adb shell
am start -n com.package.name/com.package.name.ActivityName

    Or you can use this directly:

    adb shell am start -n com.package.name/com.package.name.ActivityName

    You can also specify actions to be filter by your intent-filters:

    am start -a com.example.ACTION_NAME -n com.package.name/com.package.name.ActivityName
