There is only two requirements: 1. You must have Android SDK and add it PATH environment variable. PATH should contain directory with tools like "adb" and "android". Android SDK for various platform are available on: https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#Other 2. You must have permission to Android devices. Some Android devices requires on-screen authentication. Supported interfaces: =over 4 =item 1. Logcat Main (binary or text) =item 2. Logcat System (binary or text) =item 3. Logcat Events (binary or text) =item 4. Logcat Radio (binary or text) =item 5. Logcat Crash (text; Lollipop) =item 6. Bluetooth Hcidump (interfaceE Use specified interfaces. =item --extcap-dlts List DLTs of specified interface. =item --extcap-config List configuration options of specified interface. =item --capture Start capturing from specified interface save saved it in place specified by --fifo. =item --fifo=Epath to file or pipeE Save captured packet to file or send it through pipe. =item --adb-server-ip=EIP addressE Use other then default (127.0.0.1) ADB daemon's IP address. =item --adb-server-tcp-port=ETCP portE Use other then default (5037) ADB daemon's TCP port. =item --logcat-text=ETRUE or FALSEE If TRUE then use text logcat rather then binary. This option has effect only on Logcat interfaces. This have no effect from Lollipop where is no binary Logcat available. Defaults to FALSE. =item --bt-server-tcp-port=ETCP portE Use other then default Bluetooth server TCP port on Android side. On Lollipop defaults is 8872, earlier 4330. =item --bt-forward-socket=ETRUE or FALSEE If TRUE then socket from Android side is forwarded to host side. Defaults to FALSE. =item --bt-local-ip=EIP addressE Use other then default (127.0.0.1) IP address on host side for forwarded socket. =item --bt-local-tcp-port=ETCP portE Specify port to be used on host side for forwarded socket. =back =head1 EXAMPLES To see program arguments: androiddump --help To see program version: androiddump --version To see interfaces: androiddump --extcap-interfaces Example output: interface {display=Android Logcat Main}{value=android-logcat-main-MSM7627A} interface {display=Android Logcat System}{value=android-logcat-system-MSM7627A} interface {display=Android Logcat Radio}{value=android-logcat-radio-MSM7627A} interface {display=Android Logcat Events}{value=android-logcat-events-MSM7627A} interface {display=Android Bluetooth Hcidump}{value=android-bluetooth-hcidump-MSM7627A} To see interface DLTs: androiddump --extcap-interface=android-bluetooth-hcidump-MSM7627A --extcap-dlts Example output: dlt {number=99}{name=BluetoothH4}{display=Bluetooth HCI UART transport layer plus pseudo-header} To see interface configuration options: androiddump --extcap-interface=android-bluetooth-hcidump-MSM7627A --extcap-config Example output: arg {number=0}{call=--adb-server-ip}{display=ADB Server IP Address}{type=string}{default=127.0.0.1} arg {number=1}{call=--adb-server-tcp-port}{display=ADB Server TCP Port}{type=integer}{range=0,65535}{default=5037} To capture: androiddump --extcap-interface=android-bluetooth-hcidump-MSM7627A --fifo=/tmp/bluetooth.pcapng --capture NOTE: To stop capturing CTRL+C/kill/terminate application. =head1 SEE ALSO wireshark(1), tshark(1), dumpcap(1), extcap(4) =head1 NOTES B is part of the B distribution.
