Looks great! Would you mind if I implement it into my program? Link is in my description.

Not at all, it's open source project. Just make sure you credit the author and link to the project

Quick question. I'm making an executable program, and of course it'll be uploaded to Github, but I need to know which license it uses. Thanks.

Thank you very much. I can confirm that it works in a LG Nexus 4 with recovery TWRP 2.5.0.0.

The first time I run the script it shown a kind of error during "mount /data", but it works anyways:

Code:

Cool. Thanks. I'll post the links here and in my thread

Hi
I don't have the same result (see attached). Where is the adb folder and do we have to run adb.exe?

You can try to manually mount data and/or system in recovery
Everything you need should be in the extracted screenshot folder.
Sometimes there is that "device busy" error yes.
Not sure why it happens though.

Device or recourse is busy happens if you try to mount an already mounted partition.

Really nothing to care about

Ah. thanks! Didn't think of that.

So what could be the solution?

If you aren't trying this one a One X i have no idea.
As stated above it works on a lot of different devices just not all.
Seeing your signature i think its not compatible with Galaxy Note

OK I'll ask a friend to try on his own Note II. Too bad...:crying:

I've a little suggestion. As every time the script is executed the tool fb2png is pushed to the device and the screenshot is taken, I should add two actions before pulling the screenshot, in order to delete the temporary files from device:

adb shell rm /data/local/fb2png
adb shell rm /data/local/fbdump.png

Best regards.

Yea, thought about something already, like check if it's already there etc.
But figured it wasn't a big deal anyway.

Ow well, can't harm either huh... Will add the removal.
Cleanup AFTER the png is pulled

Edit: added cleanup to the script.

Code:

echo shell rm /data/local/fb2png
echo shell rm /data/local/fbdump.png
adb shell rm /data/local/fb2png
adb shell rm /data/local/fbdump.png
echo Removing tempfiles, Cleaning Done!

Hey whiskey I would suggest a pause so that people can actually get to see the png image and save it to pc or whatever before it is deleted, currently you don't have a Pause!

The cleaning is done only in the device, after the file was pulled to the PC, using this command:
adb pull /data/local/fbdump.png

So png image is in the PC already.

However there is something that should be improved, and is the possibility of autorename fbdump.png file on PC side in order to not overwrite it with every execution of the tool.

Well the way I see it, it's a tool to get the screenshot from the device.
Once it is on your pc it's up to you to rename it.
It's a screenshot util, not a picture manager huh

Ok... I'll try to remember to rename every screenshot taken, before taking another... Too difficult for me because I'm an user... :silly:

Might get some unforseen help from Patrics83 but can't promise anything though.

Thank you. But don't worry too much for this because, as you said, the goal of your tool is to take an screenshot, and renaming it is just a kind of add-on.

As said, thank you
