Back to Android


Here is a list of potentially useful applications

Only for root

Those apps require to run on a rooted phone

Fresh updates of the Market application itself...

With root support

Those apps benefit from running on a rooted phone

  • Root Explorer, nice file explorer with file editor etc
  • Ghost Commander
    • Nostalgic of Norton Commander? Using Midnight Commander? It's for you!
    • Root support: access system files, remount system as RW, etc
    • There is also an addon for SMB support
  • SSHDroid, ssh server
    • First time: ssh-copy-id root@192.168.1.4 (default pwd is admin) then go to options to start automatically, disable pwd auth and enable shared keys auth. Displaying authorized keys from GUI fails but auth works properly.
  • Helium, apps backup & sync
    • Works on rooted device
    • Works on non rooted devices with a CLASS preload "attack". Note that on Windows, rather than using the proposed program one can achieve the same once adb is installed by executing:
adb shell "pkg=$(pm path com.koushikdutta.backup);CLASSPATH=${pkg#package:} app_process /system/bin com.koushikdutta.shellproxy.ShellRunner2 &"
