                <packagename> app package name

Sample:   memuc stopapp -i 1 com.android.settings //Stop Android settings in MEmu_1 VM

Trigger Android keystroke

Execute command in Android

Usage:     memuc execmd <-i vmindex | -n vmname> <guestcmd>

Sample:   memuc execcmd -i 1 “getprop persist.sys.language” //Execute “getprop” command to get Android language in MEmu_1 VM

ADB command

Most likely you don’t need ADB command any longer because memuc execmd supports most of Android commands.

In addition, memuc execmd doesn’t depend on ADB server which means more stable. However, memuc adb is

still supported just in case you need a specific adb command for some reason.

Usage:     memuc adb <-i vmindex | -n vmname> <adbcmd>

Sample:   memuc adb -i 0 “remount” //Execute “remount” command through ADB connection
