Building

• Download the Android Native Development Kit (NDK): http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html#Downloads

• Extract into some directory and put that in your path: export PATH=ANDK_DIR:$PATH

• In another directory clone this repo: git clone --recursive https://github.com/android-rooting-tools/android_run_root_shell

• Change to the directory where the repo was cloned cd android_run_root_shell

• To start build process use the following ndk-build NDK_PROJECT_PATH=. APP_BUILD_SCRIPT=./Android.mk

• If all goes well you will get the compiled binary at: ./libs/armeabi/run_root_shell

Running

• Download the Android Software Development Kit (SDK) ADT Bundle: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

• Extract into some directory and put the platform-tools folder in your path: export PATH=SDK_DIR/sdk/platform-tools/:$PATH

• Change to the directory with the compiled run_root_shell binary (see above)

• Connect your Android device through USB (click Cancel if it asks to enable USB storage; charging only is the correct mode) and enable USB debugging on the device.

• Start the adb server on your computer: sudo adb start-server

• Transfer run_root_shell to a temporary directory on the phone: adb push run_root_shell /data/local

• Ensure that run_root_shell has execute permissions: adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/run_root_shell

• Run the command on the phone: adb shell /data/local/run_root_shell
