Practical ADB usage to enhance your life!
summary
Shows concrete ADB recipes: a bash login script that taps coordinates then evolves to a resilient get_coords using UI Automator2 (fixing slow 2–3s dumps and Pixel6→Pixel4 coordinate breakage) and a keyboard shortcut via Automator; uses adb exec-out to stream UI dumps to the host; inspects runtime state with dumpsys and easy-dumps; edits app internal files with run-as plus sed or prefedit to change shared prefs live; demos fzf selection, wm size/density morphing, monkey (5,000 events) and pm grant/revoke.
