dumpsys<\/a> is a great tool if you’re interested in finding out more about the system services running on your Android device. For example, you can get data about the accounts on the device, network configurations, memory, sensors, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, use adb to list the devices and then start a shell:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

adb devices<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

adb shell<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, all we need to do is run dumpsys | grep -i \"dump of service\" | cut -d \" \" -f 4 | cut -d \":\" -f 1<\/code> and we’ll have a list of all the services on the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To find out more information about a specific service, all you need to do is type dumpsys <service_name><\/code>. For example, let’s see how the output of dumpsys battery<\/code> looks like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you want to unlock the bootloader, then you have to do the following three steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Select OEM unlock from the Developer Mode settings<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Execute adb reboot bootloader<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Execute fastboot oem unlock<\/code> as the phone reboots. If that command throws an error, like FAILED (remote: ‘unknown command’), execute fastboot flashing unlock<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Enjoy your unlocked bootloeader.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
