Knives & Forks
WHAT IS IT?
Knives & Forks is a set of Android tools for everyone. Every operating system, every device.
This cross-platform Android toolkit, written in Python, that is designed to work in Linux, Mac OS X or Windows. I wanted to create something that was unique, and offered a consistent and feature-filled set of tools for Android devs no matter what operating system they use, and for as many Android devices as possible.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
I just started work on this project, so it doesn't do very much yet. Right now we are just focusing on getting drivers and adb installed for as many devices as we can on all three platforms. Once we have adb working for everyone, the real fun can begin as we start to add more device tools that will make use of adb, such as rooting. Eventually ROM customization tools will be added, but we are focusing on device tools and cross-platform compatibility at this time.
View the changelog to see a list of included drivers. The only device that I can confirm is compatible with this script in Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows is the Samsung Galaxy S II, Sprint Epic 4G Touch. This just so happens to be my personal phone, but as I gather feedback I will create an official list of supported devices.
WHERE DO I GET IT?
This project is now being hosted by the Android Creative Syndicate. An up to date link to the most current version of the script, installation instructions for Linux, Max OS , and Windows, and other information can be found HERE. Registration is not required at the ACS forum to download or view installation instructions. You are free to reply in the thread you are reading right now if you don't want to register for another forum.
I HAVE IT INSTALLED, NOW WHAT?
You should be able to open up your terminal application (or command prompt) and run some adb commands. In the future we will be automating adb commands for you, but for now you can try the following as a simple test:
Code:
adb reboot
If everything worked, your Android device should reboot. For further reading on what you can do with adb you can read THIS PAGE.

INFORMATION
TELL ME ABOUT YOUR ANDROID DEVICES!
If my script isn't getting adb setup for your device, let me know where to download the correct Windows driver and/or what udev rules I need to add in Linux.
The next phase of this project will be automating the rooting process. If you know the process for rooting your device, please share the details.
HOW TO REPLY TO THIS THREAD
Please do not reply by saying something like "This looks awesome, I'm going to download it now!".
Just download it, test it out, and then tell me about it.
If my script works for you, please don't post something like "It worked for me, this is the best thing since sliced bread!".
At the moment all my script will do is install adb and drivers for your device. In order to test please uninstall any drivers you may have already installed, run my script, then reply with the following information:
Operating System (including version and 32-bit or 64-bit architecture)
Android Device
If you open up a terminal/command prompt window and enter the following command, does your device reboot? If not, do you receive any error messages (while running that command or at any phase of running the Kinves & Forks script)?
Code:
adb reboot

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Knives & Forks: Changelog
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The most current version is available for download from:
http://knivesandforks.info/releases/knives-and-forks-current.php
**** 12.02.04 ****
http://knivesandforks.info/releases/knives-and-forks-12.02.04.php
- LINUX CHANGES:
-- "python2" is now called by "Knives-and-Forks-Linux.sh" instead of "python" on Arch.
- This prevents starting the script with Python 3, which results in errors.
-- Changes to "scripts/linux/install-adb-linux.sh":
- "su" will be used if "sudo" is not installed, or user doesn't have permissions to use it.
- Added 32-bit libs for more 64-bit distros:
- Arch (new in this release)
- CentOS (new in this release)
- Debian
- Fedora (new in this release)
- Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu
- Added Debian version of '/etc/udev/rules.d/99-android.rules'
- Added '/lib/udev/rules.d/92-permissions.rules' for Debian.
This should fix permissions, allowing adb to run without sudo or su.
- WINDOWS CHANGES:
-- Fixed a couple of missing quotes which were breaking things under Windows XP
- "%userprofile%" was coming back as "c:\documents" instead of "c:\documents and settings\username" in a couple of places
-- "c:\python27" is now the only directory where we look for python.exe
- It is faster to download and install Python to "c:\Python27" than it is to search for it elsewhere.
- This will also prevent issues where Python 3 was installed instead of Python 2, since the script currently gives errors under Python 3.
-- Updated amd64 and x86 versions of setx.exe for updating system PATH on XP/VISTA/7
-- PATH is updated with adb.exe location after Python is installed.
-- The computer will now reboot after updating the PATH, to make sure it will be updated before running the main program.
**** 12.01.27 ****
http://knivesandforks.info/releases/knives-and-forks-12.01.27.php
- GENERAL CHANGES:
-- After adb is installed, adb will reset the android device by running "adb reboot" instead of displaying a list of attached devices with "adb devices".
adb was occasionally reporting no devices were attached, when they infact were. When this happened "adb reboot" still worked, so it is a better test to see if adb is setup properly.
-- Friendlier messages during adb install and testing
-- Added a startup check to make sure the script is running from the correct directory
-- Removed empty Project directory, as it is not being used yet.
- LINUX CHANGES:
-- Added support for "lxterminal" and "urxvt" in "Knifes-and-Forks-Linux.sh"
-- Changed idVendors for Linux udev rules to lowercase instead of uppercase.
- WINDOWS CHANGES:
-- Startup script searches for python in "C:\Program Files (x86)" then "C:\Program Files" and "c:\" last.
-- Drivers should now install even if the language is not English
-- Added drivers for Casio C771 G'zOne Commando
-- Added LG drivers
-- Replaced setx.exe
**** 12.01.25 ****
http://knivesandforks.info/releases/knives-and-forks-12.01.25.php
- Replaced "Knives-and-Forks-Mac.sh" with "Knives-and-Forks-Mac.app".
Starting the script on a Mac should now be as simple as double-clicking the new .app file.
**** 12.01.24 ****
http://knivesandforks.info/releases/knives-and-forks-12.01.24.php
- Fixed a typo which caused the script to crash when viewing the credits screen.
- Smarter python fix for Windows users.
-- "C:\" and all sub-directories are searched for python.exe.
-- If python is not not found, it will be downloaded from python.org and installed to c:\python27.
-- If python is found (in "C:\python27", "c:\python", "c:\xyz123", "c:\program files\python27" or in any directory with any name anywhere on drive c:) the main menu script will launch.
- Added changelog.txt to the release .zip file.
**** 12.01.23 ****
http://knivesandforks.info/releases/knives-and-forks-12.01.23.php
- Minor update to fix Python installation for Windows users, which was causing the script not to launch.
**** 12.01.22 ****
(FIRST PUBLIC RELEASE)
http://knivesandforks.info/releases/knives-and-forks-12.01.22.php

WHERE DID THE OLD POSTS GO?
In an attempt to reduce unnecessary clutter in my original thread, I created supporting threads in each Android device forum. The whole reason behind posting so many times was to keep certain information in the Chef Central post, and certain information out of it in an effort to reduce clutter. Who wants to read through 50 pages of how this, that, and the other thing is or isn't working on devices that you don't own? That system appeared to work very well, but apparently I broke the rules by posting in every Android device forum.
Learn from my mistakes, don't post similarly worded posts all over the place!
ATTENTION PYTHON PROGRAMMERS:
Any idea on what I can do to make the Python files work in Python 2 and Python 3? I have only tested in Python 2.7.2, but I have received reports that Python 3 gives errors. I'm not really doing anything all that fancy, so I'm not sure if something is just a matter or new syntax or something else needs to be imported or what. Any help would be appreciated.
The next release will call "python2" for Arch Linux users since "python" will use python 3.
ATTENTION LINUX USERS:
I am currently testing my Knives & Forks script in some virtual machines using VirtualBox, as well as my local Xubuntu installation.
For distro specific things (installing 32-bit libs, udev changes, etc) in the next release I will be detecting the distro using the following code:
Code:
echo " -- DETECTING LINUX DISTRO --"
if [ "`cat /etc/issue | grep Arch | wc -l`" == "1" ]; then
DISTRO_NAME="Arch"
elif [ "`cat /etc/issue | grep Cent | wc -l`" == "1" ]; then
DISTRO_NAME="CentOS"
elif [ "`cat /etc/issue | grep Debian | wc -l`" == "1" ]; then
DISTRO_NAME="Debian"
elif [ "`cat /etc/issue | grep Fedora | wc -l`" == "1" ]; then
DISTRO_NAME="Fedora"
elif [ "`cat /etc/issue | grep Ubuntu | wc -l`" == "1" ]; then
# DETECTS UBUNTU, KUBUNTU, XUBUNTU, ETC
DISTRO_NAME="Ubuntu"
else
DISTRO_NAME="UNKNOWN"
fi
echo " - $DISTRO_NAME"
Please let me know what other distros your using and if you are able to find the name using the "/etc/issue" method I am using in the above if statements.
I wrote a bash function to check if sudo is installed, and then to see if the current user has permissions to use sudo. If sudo is not installed, or if the current user does not have permission to use it, su will be used instead. This will be included in my next update, but I wanted to post it here first:
Code:
echo " -- CHECKING TO SEE IF 'SUDO' IS INSTALLED --"
CURRENT_USER=$USER
USE_SUDO="NO"
if [ -f "/usr/bin/sudo" ]; then
echo " - 'sudo' is installed."
echo ""
echo " -- CHECKING FOR PERMISSION TO USE 'SUDO' --"
echo ""
echo " If prompted, enter the password for the user '$CURRENT_USER'."
echo ""
if [ "$(sudo whoami)" != "root" ]; then
echo ""
echo " - Sorry, '$CURRENT_USER' does not have permission to use 'sudo'."
echo " - 'su' will be uses instead of 'sudo'."
echo ""
else
echo " - '$CURRENT_USER' has permission to use 'sudo'."
USE_SUDO="YES"
echo ""
fi
else
echo " - 'sudo' is not installed."
echo " - 'su' will be used instead of 'sudo'."
echo ""
fi
DO_SU()
{
echo ""
if [ $USE_SUDO == "YES" ]; then
# echo " -- USING 'SUDO' TO RUN '$1' --"
echo ""
echo " If prompted, enter the password for the user '$CURRENT_USER'."
echo ""
sudo $1
else
# echo " -- USING 'SU' TO RUN '$1' --"
echo ""
echo " If prompted, enter the password for the user 'root'."
echo ""
su -c "$1"
fi
echo ""
}
# EXAMPLE USAGE OF THE DO_SU() FUNCTION:
# NOTE THAT THE COMMAND TO RUN WITH SU OR SUDO HAS TO BE IN QUOTES
DO_SU "whoami"
I also found out why debian users were being forced to use sudo or su in order to use adb. The next release will include this fix, but for those who might be interested in making this change manually:
Open "/lib/udev/rules.d/91-permissions.rules" as root (su or sudo) in your favorite text editor and find this line
Code:
usbfs-like devices SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, ENV{DEVTYPE}==”usb_device”, \ MODE=”0664″
Change MODE to "0666"
Code:
usbfs-like devices SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, ENV{DEVTYPE}==”usb_device”, \ [B]MODE=”0666“[/B]
Instead of replacing or modifying your "/lib/udev/rules.d/91-permissions.rules" file, the next version of my script will actually create a "/lib/udev/rules.d/92-permissions.rules" for Debian users that contains only the following:
Code:
# usbfs-like devices
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
MODE="0666"
This file will load right after the 91-permissions.rules and replace just the usbfs-like devices settings. I'm just doing this with my script so I don't accidently break anything on your system. If you are making the changes manually, editing the 91-permissions.rules file should be all you need to do.
Save your changes and then restart udev as root (using sudo or su)
Code:
/etc/init.d/udev restart
-- or --
Code:
service udev restart
This assumes of course that you already have a working udev rule for your android device, and that adb is working only with su or sudo currently. Once this change is made you should be able to use adb without being forced to use su or sudo.
First post updated with latest release, version 12.02.04.
Lots of changes for XP and various Linux distros. See changelog for more information, but things should work better in Arch, CentOS, Debian, Fedora, and Ubuntu (including Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc).
Hi, I just downloaded the latest file (12.02.04) but it's only 4 KB.
Could you check please?
Thank you!
Trying to unzip the file in Ubuntu 11.10 and this what I get:
Archive: knives-and-forks-12.02.04.zip
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of knives-and-forks-12.02.04.zip or
knives-and-forks-12.02.04.zip.zip, and cannot find knives-and-forks-12.02.04.zip.ZIP, period.
Any help?
I had a typo in the .zip filename, so if you tried to download the file yesterday you basically just downloaded an error message that the .php counter script gave when it couldn't find the file. I will have to take a look at that later because it is supposed to display the message not make you download it.
The problem is now fixed, sorry about that.
Thanks for update.
Downloaded and installed.
Now I can adb from linux.
Have one more question. I hope you can help me with that as well.
I don't see my device (E4GT) as external hard drive or USB drive when debuging is on to copy files to it.
When debuging is off it shows 2 Android devices but when I click on them I'm getting this message:
Error initializing camera: -60: Could not lock the device
Any ideas?
My guess is maybe they didn't get unmounted properly that last time you had it plugged in, but I have no idea why you would get an error message about the camera. I have not seen that one.
Try installing Dropbox and backing up anything important, then formatting the sdcard and try mounting again.
Maybe somebody else has had that error and has a better idea,
I'll try to format sd card tonight when I get home.
But what would be the problem with internal storage?
And what should or could I try to proper mount it?

First thing to check is that it isn't ROM related. Boot into recovery and try to mount as a usb drive and see if it works or not. If it does, I would say wipe and flash another ROM. If it doesn't work from recovery, then it could be a result of not unmounting before unplugging from your computer.
Sometimes if you have your phone mounted as a USB drive, or even just a regular flash drive, and it you unplug it before it is done unmounting (or if you don't use the safely remove hardward feature of Windows) the filesystem can get trashed. It hasn't happened alot with me, and I have seen the problem happen mostly when a flash drive is unplugged before the OS can finish writing to it.
After you get all of your important stuff backed up somewhere like dropbox, reboot into your recovery and repartition the sd card and/or your internal storage, whatever is giving you the problem. When you reboot into android you should be able to use it as normal, and dropbox should automatically copy everything back that you backed up.
This problem isn't really related to my script, so I if you can't get the issue resolved make a new post in Android QA or somewhere else. PM me if you post elsewhere and I can see if I can help you out there.
I didn't mean to say that the problem is related to your script.
Your script works just fine and I'm able to adb.
I'm kinda new to linux and still learning it.
I needed help and advise for how to connect phone to pc in linux.
It works in windows for me.
When I get on my PC I'm gnats give this awhirl. Ad for your mounting disk drives if ur on any ics rom it wont and I don't know how to enlighten me someone but if its gingerb then make sure u mount with the phones option when u plug in on ur handset ther should be some kind of way to switch between teather, disk and charge only? Wat fone u got?
Does this knife and forks compile? What does it do? Sorry to sound like a knob.

The post where I found the font said it was an Android logo inspired font, and not the actual android logo font.
I have changed the font I'm using, and have updated my logo graphic to fight off any further concerns.

At the moment it simply automates getting adb setup on Linux, Mac, and Linux.
I have plans to add support for device rooting next, followed by some other adb commands, then rom customization tools as the last stage of development.
Pushing files to the phone, running shell commands, etc, requires that adb is setup properly, so that is where the focus is at right now. Getting the adb & driver installation scripts setup to run on all three platforms is also helping take care of some general troubleshooting, which is good to get out of the way before the main script gets tons of extra features.
All of this info should be in the first post, I'll try to clarify things when I make the next update.

Thanks for the feedback. What OS?
hi all
i have an galaxy SIII

i want to write a script and i have 2 questions
- how to write a script who open an url with the web browser
- is there an function to send a ping to see if an local adress avalaible (192.168.1.X) if not avalaible is there an return error ?
(sorry to seem stupid but i am coming from windows and i am a bit lost for the moment )
thank u for giving me a your time
no suggestion ?
or advise
Google something like "android open browser from shell". You can do it using intents.
Also:
Code:
ping --help
this work in an script u put
am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -n com.android.browser/.BrowserActivity http://www.google.fr
for chrome i find this
am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -n com.android.chrome/.Main -d http://xxxxxxxx
but i not find for opera if someone have it
finally
opera =
am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -n com.opera.browser/com.opera.Opera -d http://www.google.xxxx
hope this help someone
lol now i really need help coz i found nothing

That's easy, check:
Code:
for var in {1..9}
do
echo "Looking for 192.168.1.$var..." #optional... jejeje
if ping 192.168.1.$var -c 1 > /dev/null
then
#Reachable, put here your command
else
#Unreachable, you can show an error here
fi
done

but ping command is not reconized by script manager i can only do it with terminal emulator ....
Really? I didn't know that (weird, BTW). Check if you need to use another command with Script Manager, or if you need to add something.
I dunno another way to achieve your goal... only using ping
lol i have a headeach with this and find nothing

Are you sure? Because if you have created the script in windows, you have that EOL formatting (whatever that means :silly. Try this:
Open Terminal Emulator, and type
Code:
echo "hello there" > /sdcard/newScript.sh
This will create a new and clean script in your SD Card.
Then, go to Script Manager, and edit that script. You can start deleting the text ("hello there") and adding this:
Code:
testvar=1
if [ "$testvar" = "1" ] ; then
echo "All is right"
fi
Ok, run the script. If you can see the text "All is right", that's it, problem solved

edit =
my fault is i create a text file under windows (easier and can copy and past easily) after i put the file on my phone and copy past the code in a new script.
i not think that when i just copy past i past the EOL formatting ( i dont know what is that but its a bad thing )
that's mean i must abandon windows and migrate totally to linux
anyway that make me crazy and i am happy to sort it.
you are very helpfull many thanks again
new edit = i understand now why they say notepad++ is necessary
I am trying to find a simple way for users to determine the version of their LTE modem. All of the standard tools only query the cdma/GSM modem version.
I was able to do this the long way on my m919 by -
-dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/apnhlos of=/sdcard/downloads/non-hlos.img
-Downloaded a copy of MDL and MK2 modem sets
-Extracted non-hlos.bin from flashable files
-Used a hex editor to find the file length of each modem and created a copy of the extracted image
-Binary comparison confirmed I have MK2 GSM modem with MDL LTE modem
Initially the reason for this intentional mismatch is to run later versions of Android while retaining the original bootloader
It was found that the newer LTE firmware caused data drops and audio drop outs as explained here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544612
I'm going to imagine that the different models and carriers will give us piles of modems to try and knowing what's installed (to verify a successful flash for example) would be helpful
I would like to be able to find this out too.
I examined non-hlos.bin but couldn't find any clues in there. A lot of text narratives, but nothing from which the version can be extracted like it can in modem.bin. if the version is bundled in the file then it's in a binary/encrypted form.

I DO NOT EVEN HAVE THE SGH-1337 ! I have the i9505! LOL
I've found my RD-PQ on the shelf and decided to upgrade it to 2.3
That was a pretty easy procedure, although with 2.3 it's totally empty.
The most discouraging thing is that WiFi fails to connect.
There are several mentions of that problem at https://developer.tizen.org/ru/forums/general-support/tizen-2.3-rd-pq-device-available but no solutions or at least clues there.
Are there any options to debug it?
The only thing I could imagine was to connect to device console in sdb and check wpa_supplicant that was working somehow.
With 2.2.1 WiFi works fine.
What else can be done around it?
Ya need driver isntalled I think. Drivers is non free licensed and ya need to ask for it somewhere in dear Samsung company.
Tolko schas uvidel... Napishi na maemo.su, sprosi u Kirilla, k primeru, bolshe tolku budet. Zdes ne populyaren Tizen.
I have my RD-PQ only since 1 month... so I am newbie...
Since yesterday I saw first time 2.3.1 and WiFi complete not work... not able to find any thing... Scan not finish...
Installed files...
Code:
tizen-2.3.1-mobile_20150921.1_mobile_boot.tar.gz
[B]tizen-2.3.1-mobile_20150921.1_mobile_target.tar.gz[/B]
Then I have only flashed filesystem:
Code:
[B]tizen-2.3-mobile_20150812.1_mobile_target.tar.gz[/B]
So I mixed 2.3.1 Kernel with Filesystem from 2.3... and my WiFi now detect devices + I am able to connect to hidden network.
I need something to install to check if connection is not fake... but for now this is more as 2.3.1
I will later compare...
If usr/apps is bigger difference... between 2.3 and 2.3.1...
Later more...
Best Regards

Pulled from working 2.3 filesystem...
Now I have flashed back to 2.3.1...
Need some time to check content... compare and so on...
Added WiFifrom231rdPQ.rar from 2.3.1 filesystem... NOT work for me.
Short compared and I can see major differences...
Code:
rm -r wifi-efl-ug
Delete in shell work... so I will try to replace folder with content of 2.3...
Later more...
Thanx for this info via PM...
But I can't try self as stupid me killed my RD-PQ...
But maybe someone else find this info usefull...
nice user said:
...I know how to fix the wifi connection on Tizen 2.3 and 2.3.1 for a RD-PQ device. The problem is that some links in the os are not properly created.
Basically you need to install the usleep package (https://download.tizen.org/releases...rmv7l/packages/armv7l/usleep-1-5.2.armv7l.rpm), it's for Tizen 2.2.1, but it does work for 2.3 and 2.3.1. After that, create two links that the wlan.sh shell script is expecting, and are not in the proper location.
ln -s /usr/sbin/modprobe /sbin/modprobe
ln -s /usr/sbin/rmmod /sbin/rmmod
Or, alternatively, you can pull the /usr/bin/wlan.sh file via sdb pull, change the /sbin/modprobe and /sbin/rmmod lines to /usr/sbin/modprobe and /usr/sbin/rmmod.
After doing that, from the phone, open Wifi and clicking on the green button will activate the wifi correctly and you will be able to connect to any wifi hotspot.
You can skip using the ui and perform the following commands :
/usr/bin/wlan.sh start
this will activate the wlan0 interface, which you can check by issuing a ifconfig command.
/usr/sbin/wpa_supp.sh start
this will start wpa supplicant.
Check if connmand is running (ps -ax and check the list), if not, you need to do :
systemctl start connman
systemctl enable connman
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thank you very much for this hint. :good:
