I present you Droid PC Suite (DPCS for short), as the name suggests it is a kind of toolbox application written in java for cross platform support. This project as been inspired from Android Ultimate Toolbox Pro. Now the question arises that why reinvent the wheel? Since Android Ultimate Toolbox Pro is designed for Microsoft® Windows, So what about those users who run Linux/ macOS? So, keeping this in mind Droid PC Suite has been developed. Btw, it also works on Microsoft® Windows. Initially started as my college project and now I've released it.
And did I mention that it is free? Yeah free as in free speech, not as in free beer! This project is licensed under GNU General Public License, version 2.Caution! This program is not foolproof! Do not try to outsmart it by playing tricks, because you may result with an expensive brick in the worst case! If you don't understand a feature you probably don't need it, just lookup about it on google before trying something out.
