How To Use Brevent Script

Diving into the depths of Brevent scripts, are we? Excellent choice! Let’s unravel this together. 🕵️‍♂️

Brevent is like the backstage manager for your Android apps—keeping them in line, whispering, “No more loitering in the background!” Now, let’s talk about using scripts with it:

1. The Basics:

   • First off, you’ll need to have Brevent installed on your Android device. If you haven’t already, grab it from Google Play or another trusted source.
   • Now, scripts! These little command sequences can work wonders. They’re like secret handshakes for your apps.

2. Using ADB (Android Debug Bridge):

   • ADB is your backstage pass to Android magic. It lets you communicate with your device from your computer.
   • Open a terminal (command prompt) on your computer and navigate to the ADB tool directory (where you’ve got ADB installed).
   • Connect your Android device to your computer via USB.
   • Run the following commands:

     adb devices
     

     This checks if your device is connected. You should see your device listed.

     adb -d shell sh /data/data/me.piebridge.brevent/brevent.sh
     

     This authorizes Brevent to do its thing. It’s like saying, “Hey, Brevent, you’re the boss now!”

3. Custom Scripts (Since 2.6.6):

   • Brevent got fancy with custom scripts. 🎩
   • If you want to execute a specific command via Brevent, you can use this snippet in your app:

     final String action = "me.piebridge.brevent.intent.action.COMMAND";
     final String extra = "me.piebridge.brevent.intent.extra.COMMAND";
     final String command = ""; // Your command goes here
     Intent intent = new Intent(action);
     intent.putExtra(extra, command);
     

     Fill in that command part with whatever you want Brevent to do. It’s like handing it a little note backstage.

4. Bonus Round: Brevent.sh:

   • Feeling adventurous? Check out brevent.sh. It’s like the secret lair where scripts hang out.
   • Connect your device, activate ADB, and run this magical incantation:

     adb -d shell 'output=$(pm path me.piebridge.brevent); export CLASSPATH=${output#*:}; app_process /system/bin me.piebridge.brevent.server.BreventServer bootstrap; /system/bin/sh /data/local/tmp/brevent.sh'
     

     It’s like summoning a digital wizard to optimize your apps.
