Accessibility using ADB

Uh, no idea. Does https://github.com/bk138/droidVNC-NG#notes help? Also, found https://alexzh.com/adb-commands-accessibility/ by a quick google attack. Let us know what works for you please!

Hi again,
Thanks for your answer. Sadly this is another command. Later today i will give an example of an adb command to enable accessibilty for "Button Mapper" via ADB. Maybe it will be more clear then?

grts,

Hi again,

Here with an example.
To enable accessibility service for "Button Mapper" i use in ADB:
"adb shell pm grant flar2.homebutton android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS"
"adb shell settings put secure enabled_accessibility_services flar2.homebutton/flar2.homebutton.a.ai"

to get Button Mapper out of Doze (battery optimisation) i use in ADB:
"adb shell dumpsys deviceidle whitelist +flar2.homebutton"

Hope this is a bit more clear of what i mean.

grts,
Phil

Maybe adb shell pm grant net.christianbeier.droidvnc_ng android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS and adb shell settings put secure enabled_accessibility_services net.christianbeier.droidvnc_ng/ InputService ? But am just wildly guessing - you probably have to play around with some combinations I guess.

Thank you!!!!!

Will give it a try next time i'm able to connect the devide to pc.

@Droidphilev could you try this out? If so, what were the results?

Hello again, tried both commands:

The first one gives as error: "Operation not allowed: java.lang.SecurityException: Package net.christianbeier.d
roidvnc_ng has not requested permission android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS"

The second one gives as error: "Too many arguments
usage: settings [--user <USER_ID> | current] get namespace key
settings [--user <USER_ID> | current] put namespace key value
settings [--user <USER_ID> | current] delete namespace key
settings [--user <USER_ID> | current] list namespace

'namespace' is one of {system, secure, global}, case-insensitive
If '--user <USER_ID> | current' is not given, the operations are performed on th
e system user."

Any idea please?

Just tried a single adb shell settings put secure enabled_accessibility_services net.christianbeier.droidvnc_ng/.InputService and that worked for me.

Ah, a dot before 'Inputservice' :-)

Will try again next time it's with me and report back, thank you!
