ADB for MAD (MADmin Phonecontrol)

Why?

ADB connect your phones to MAD and let you control them even if they lost the websocket connection. Follow features are available:

  • Making Screenshots
  • Interact with phone (clicking and swiping)
  • send texts
  • sending commands (pogo restart and others)

Not working: set GPS coords

Pro / Cons

Pro

  • Quick remote support for phones
  • Checking the phone status better then status page on MADmin

Cons

  • Technically slower due to Python, mitigated by no daemon.
  • Only one command per device at a time.

Setting up the ADB feature

You need a local installed Server (like a raspi) or you could use your existing instance from MAD. Install the adb package and activate it.

Installation for raspi:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install -y android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

ToDo: installation and configuration howto

Installation: VPS with MAD - local Server

You need a port forwarding at your local router to get a ADB connection from the MAD VPS. Default Port: 5037
