Hello,
Thank you for your application, it works very well.

I just have a small problem, it is to backup by the command 'adb backup'.
I tried to do it but the ".ab" file I get is empty.

Would it be possible to backup the config? or to find another way to configure the app remotely by another way?

Thanks for your answer.

Hi and thanks.
Backup is empty because it's disabled in app.
Why you need to configure app remotely?

Hello

I'm trying to configure the app remotely without rooting the phone because I have an app that installs ScreenStream by ADB but I have no way to configure it to change for example (resizing, frame rate, etc ...) and also to disable the wifi to put in local host only because I make an "adb forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080" to my pc

If it is not possible by backup, is there any other way?

Thanks

Ok. Looks like a very custom case. Let forget for a moment the technical part.
What will be an ideal functionality for you? Or what is a business case?
I prefer to add a functionality that is useful for many uses, not just for some particular case.

In a professional case I think of the installation and configuration of the app via usb without needing to perform the manipulation by hand on several devices.

I don't know if we can pass as argument a path of a config file when we launch the application via ADB

Well, I see only one simple solution - enable config backup.
Most likely, it will appear in the next big 4.0 release.

Ok. Try version 3.10.5

so I tried and it doesn't work
adb backup -all returns very few apps and info.dvkr.screenstream is not in the backup

I did some research and I have the impression that it is necessary to root the device

I'm sorry to have wasted your time with this

I close the ticket

and thank you
