    We can execute shell comands by using Runtime class.

    Runtime.getRuntime().exec("ls"); 

    The above piece of code will create a native process for given command ls, will return same process as a Process object.

      You Should write the exact syntax you used here in a .bat file, and then just execute it.

      • this works if you have access to the system you're running the program on, but if your prog will be run on an unknown system it most likely will not have that batch file. you could create it programmatically and then execute it, but that probably isn't the best way to do this.CommentedMar 4, 2013 at 18:55

      It seems you are on a Microsoft station so considering using batch would give you this :

      1st method : Stay on your station and send usefull commands

      cd C:\android-sdk\platform-tools adb shell "su -c 'mount -o rw,remount /system'" adb shell "su -c 'cp /sdcard/MyApp.apk /system/app/MyApp.apk'" adb shell "su -c 'mount -o ro,remount /system'" 

      The only thing is you will launch and close 3 shells but its not really and issue.

      2nd method : Stay on your station send a sh script on sdcard and execute it

      cd C:\android-sdk\platform-tools adb push myscript.sh /sdcard/ adb shell "su -c 'sh /sdcard/myscript.sh'" 

      with "myscript.sh" containing :

      #!/system/bin/sh mount -o rw,remount /system cp /sdcard/MyApp.apk /system/app/MyApp.apk mount -o ro,remount /system 

      Remember that Android shell scripts created on Microsoft station have CRLF line ending ! You need to get LF only ending your lines on UNIX like systems !
