# MobyDroid
MobyDroid is a simple and cross-platform Android Devices Manager.
It runs on any operating system with Java support (Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, BSD, Solaris...).
THIS IS JUST A BETA RELEASE !
### Prerequisites ###
- Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.8 or later
- ADB
### Usage ###
Simply extract and run the jar file:
```
java -jar "mobydroid.jar"
```
### Motives ###
I have been running linux from while now. And what I noticed is there is no GUI Android Devices Manager until now (QtADB didn't work for me).
Basicly I kept using ADB command line and kept waiting for someone to make something or some alternatives.
Some day a friend of mine kept complaining about the same problem. After that, I decided to make a simple Apk installer with a graphical user interface. And something lead to another.
And I wanted to share it for any one having the same problem.
So here it is !

## How to Install ADB on Windows, macOS, and Linux ##
A Great article on XDA [see here](https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/)
## Troubleshooting
If you cannot connect to your device check the following:
- Your adb server is running by issuing `adb start-server`
- You can see the device using adb `adb devices`

## ADB Protocol Description ##
The Android Debug Bridge (ADB) is a client-server architecture used to communicate with Android devices (install APKs, debug apps, etc).
An overview of the protocol can be found here: [Overview](https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/adb/+/master/OVERVIEW.TXT)
A list of the available commands that a ADB Server may accept can be found here:
[Services](https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/adb/+/master/SERVICES.TXT)
The description for the protocol for transfering files can be found here: [SYNC.TXT](https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/adb/+/master/SYNC.TXT).
