[TOOL] Adbuix - A GUI for ADB on Linux. [v0.1.1 5/06/2010 UNSTABLE]

KodieG · Mar 3, 2010

UPDATE (January 10, 2011):
This project has not been abandoned, I've just been dealing with some personal things and haven't had time to work on this. My plan for Adbuix is to completely rewrite it using the GTK+ Toolkit or the Qt Toolkit (haven't decided which one) so that the program can run by itself without any dependencies and will be able to be complied for any operating system easily. This is going to take some time but it will definitely be worth it. So check back here, or check my website for updates. Thanks!

WARNING: THIS IS AN UNSTABLE BETA VERSION. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Adbuix

About
Adbuix is a Graphic User Interface (GUI) for the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) on the Linux Operating System.
It eliminates the work of remembering commands or typing out directory paths when using ADB to modify files on your Android device.
Take this command for an example:

Code:

#adb -s emulator-5554 push /home/user/Desktop/Application.apk /system/app/Application.apk

That is a command that you would have to type out in a terminal to copy an application from your computer desktop to your Android device.
With Adbuix, you click the file you want to copy, click the folder you want to copy it to, and click the copy button. It's that easy!

Known Bugs

When using the program with an emulator instead of an actual device, in the file manager, folders have file icons instead of folders, but everything works as expected.

Compatibility
Operating Systems

Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) - Crashes with a "segmentation fault".
Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) - Works fine.
Ubuntu 10.04 BETA 1 (Lucid Lynx) - Works fine.

Devices

HTC Dream w/ CyanogenMod - Works fine.
HTC Tattoo w/ Stock Rom - Works fine.
HTC Tattoo w/ Open Eclair - Works fine.

Future Features

Partition Manager
Shell Console
Image Flashing
Rom Flashing
Rythmbox Integration
Much Much More...

After the Linux version is all done i will eventually be making a windows versions and maybe a osx version in the future. I guess it all depends on if this really becomes that popular or not.

I am using Gambas 2 by Benoît Minisini. It's pretty much Visual Basic for Linux. You can check it out here: http://gambas.sourceforge.net

Thank you very much for the support. It makes all the hard work worth it.

bwhite82 · Mar 18, 2010

Thanks on two fronts:

Didn't know about Gambas

And your gui tool.

Very nice and look forward to its release. If you need someone to make an OpenSuse binary, pm me.

are there any prerequisites needed to use this.

I installed on hardy and it installed fine.
however, clicking on the Icon launcher produces nothing.

When I launch in a terminal I get this:
~$ /usr/bin/Adbuix.gambas
Starting ADB...
ADB started successfully. (along with a popup that says 'Please plug in your android device')
then when attached:
List of devices attached (along with a popup window that says the same.)

and then nothing...

or I get:
:~$ /usr/bin/Adbuix.gambas
Starting ADB...
ADB started successfully.
Segmentation fault

and then nothing...

or I get:

~$ /usr/bin/Adbuix.gambas
ADB is already running.
Segmentation fault

and again ... nothing...

Thank you for submitting this. I've been working hard on trying to resolve this issue. I installed Hardy in Virtual Box and installed Adbuix onto that and got the same results you did, so i'm hoping to get this fixed soon. Thank you for your patience.

And also...
Thank you to everybody for the support. Please continue to submit any comments or questions to this thread.

mnjm9b · Mar 30, 2010

I appreciate your hard work.

let me know if I can help in anyway.

lukic · Apr 1, 2010

It works on Ubuntu 10.04 beta1 with HTC Tattoo (stock rom, rooted).
I could use Application manager, File manager, Reboot device and everything works fine.
