HomeBackend DevelopmentPython TutorialPython mobile phone development calls DLL to implement some ADB functions

I have learned a little bit of Python recently, and I happen to have a pre-research work on mobile phone synchronization tools to complete.

To achieve communication between PC and mobile phone, you must first find their communication protocol. Fortunately, Android has a complete protocol: ADB

ADB’s code is open source and supports the Windows platform. There are ready-made DLLs that can be called: AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll

Okay, it can be done with VC, but I wanted to try it with Python, so I started the arduous process of checking information + experimenting.


I won’t go into details about the experimental process. Since the above two DLLs are implemented in C, and the provided header files are also in C language, we have the following python test program (Python2.7):

import ctypes
   
#自定义的GUID结构,有兴趣的可以自己研究用uuid模块 
class GUID(ctypes.Structure):
    _fields_ = [("Data1", ctypes.c_ulong),
                ("Data2", ctypes.c_ushort),
                ("Data3", ctypes.c_ushort),
                ("Data4", ctypes.c_ubyte*8)]
   
#自己定义的一个结构体,便于使用DLL接口 
class AdbInterfaceInfo(ctypes.Structure):
    _fields_ = [("class_id", GUID),
                ("flags", ctypes.c_ulong),
                ("device_name", ctypes.c_wchar*800)]
   
def strGUID(GUID):
    string = ''
    string = string + '%x' % buff.class_id.Data1 + '-%x' % buff.class_id.Data2 + '-%x' %buff.class_id.Data3
    string = string + '-%x' % buff.class_id.Data4[0]
    string = string + '%x' % buff.class_id.Data4[1]
    string = string + '%x' % buff.class_id.Data4[2]
    string = string + '%x' % buff.class_id.Data4[3]

    string = string + '%x' % buff.class_id.Data4[6]
    string = string + '%x' % buff.class_id.Data4[7]
    return string
   
dll = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary('AdbWinApi.dll')
usb_class_id = GUID(0xF72FE0D4, 0xCBCB, 0x407d, (0x88, 0x14, 0x9e, 0xd6, 0x73, 0xd0, 0xdd, 0x6b))
enum_handle = dll.AdbEnumInterfaces(usb_class_id, ctypes.c_bool('true'), ctypes.c_bool('true'), ctypes.c_bool('true'))
   
while(1):
    buff = AdbInterfaceInfo()
    size = ctypes.c_ulong(ctypes.sizeof(buff))
    status = dll.AdbNextInterface(enum_handle, ctypes.byref(buff), ctypes.byref(size))
   
    if status==1:
        #print "GUID = " + strGUID(buff.class_id) 
        #print "status = " + str(status) 
        #print "Name = " + str(buff.device_name) 
        hAdbApi = dll.AdbCreateInterfaceByName(buff.device_name);
        if hAdbApi == 0:
            print 'AdbCreateInterfaceByName Fail'
        else:
            serial = ' '*128
            pserial = ctypes.c_char_p()
            pserial.value = serial
            serial_len = ctypes.c_ulong(len(serial))
            ret = dll.AdbGetSerialNumber(hAdbApi, pserial, ctypes.byref(serial_len), ctypes.c_bool('false'));
            if ret == 1:
                print 'Device Name: ' + '%s'% serial
            else:
                print 'Get Device Name Fail'
    else:
        print 'Finished'
        break
import ctypes
#自定义的GUID结构,有兴趣的可以自己研究用uuid模块

    _fields_ = [("Data1", ctypes.c_ulong),
                ("Data2", ctypes.c_ushort),
                ("Data3", ctypes.c_ushort),
                ("Data4", ctypes.c_ubyte*8)]
#自己定义的一个结构体,便于使用DLL接口
class AdbInterfaceInfo(ctypes.Structure):
    _fields_ = [("class_id", GUID),
                ("flags", ctypes.c_ulong),
                ("device_name", ctypes.c_wchar*800)]
def strGUID(GUID):
    string = ''
    string = string + '%x' % buff.class_id.Data1 + '-%x' % buff.class_id.Data2 + '-%x' %buff.class_id.Data3

    string = string + '%x' % buff.class_id.Data4[7]
    return string
dll = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary('AdbWinApi.dll')
usb_class_id = GUID(0xF72FE0D4, 0xCBCB, 0x407d, (0x88, 0x14, 0x9e, 0xd6, 0x73, 0xd0, 0xdd, 0x6b))
enum_handle = dll.AdbEnumInterfaces(usb_class_id, ctypes.c_bool('true'), ctypes.c_bool('true'), ctypes.c_bool('true'))
while(1):
    buff = AdbInterfaceInfo()
    size = ctypes.c_ulong(ctypes.sizeof(buff))
    status = dll.AdbNextInterface(enum_handle, ctypes.byref(buff), ctypes.byref(size))
    if status==1:
        #print "GUID = " + strGUID(buff.class_id)
        #print "status = " + str(status)
        #print "Name = " + str(buff.device_name)
        hAdbApi = dll.AdbCreateInterfaceByName(buff.device_name);
        if hAdbApi == 0:
            print 'AdbCreateInterfaceByName Fail'
        else:
            serial = ' '*128
            pserial = ctypes.c_char_p()
            pserial.value = serial
            serial_len = ctypes.c_ulong(len(serial))
            ret = dll.AdbGetSerialNumber(hAdbApi, pserial, ctypes.byref(serial_len), ctypes.c_bool('false'));
            if ret == 1:
                print 'Device Name: ' + '%s'% serial
            else:
                print 'Get Device Name Fail'
    else:
        print 'Finished'
        break

The above simple Python code can use the two DLLs AdbWinApi.dll and AdbWinUsbApi.dll to find the Android device connected to your PC.

Only 3 DLL interfaces have been called, but the purpose has been achieved. The following conclusion can be drawn:

It is feasible to use Python to call DLL to implement the ADB tool, but of course there will be a lot of trouble.


Written at the end, it is quite troublesome for Python to call a DLL written in C, especially parameter passing, especially pointer processing, which requires the ctypes module. . .

How to Use Python to Find the Zipf Distribution of a Text FileHow to Use Python to Find the Zipf Distribution of a Text FileMar 05, 2025 am 09:58 AM

This tutorial demonstrates how to use Python to process the statistical concept of Zipf's law and demonstrates the efficiency of Python's reading and sorting large text files when processing the law. You may be wondering what the term Zipf distribution means. To understand this term, we first need to define Zipf's law. Don't worry, I'll try to simplify the instructions. Zipf's Law Zipf's law simply means: in a large natural language corpus, the most frequently occurring words appear about twice as frequently as the second frequent words, three times as the third frequent words, four times as the fourth frequent words, and so on. Let's look at an example. If you look at the Brown corpus in American English, you will notice that the most frequent word is "th

Serialization and Deserialization of Python Objects: Part 1Serialization and Deserialization of Python Objects: Part 1Mar 08, 2025 am 09:39 AM

Serialization and deserialization of Python objects are key aspects of any non-trivial program. If you save something to a Python file, you do object serialization and deserialization if you read the configuration file, or if you respond to an HTTP request. In a sense, serialization and deserialization are the most boring things in the world. Who cares about all these formats and protocols? You want to persist or stream some Python objects and retrieve them in full at a later time. This is a great way to see the world on a conceptual level. However, on a practical level, the serialization scheme, format or protocol you choose may determine the speed, security, freedom of maintenance status, and other aspects of the program

Mathematical Modules in Python: StatisticsMathematical Modules in Python: StatisticsMar 09, 2025 am 11:40 AM

Python's statistics module provides powerful data statistical analysis capabilities to help us quickly understand the overall characteristics of data, such as biostatistics and business analysis. Instead of looking at data points one by one, just look at statistics such as mean or variance to discover trends and features in the original data that may be ignored, and compare large datasets more easily and effectively. This tutorial will explain how to calculate the mean and measure the degree of dispersion of the dataset. Unless otherwise stated, all functions in this module support the calculation of the mean() function instead of simply summing the average. Floating point numbers can also be used. import random import statistics from fracti

mPDF is a PHP library that can generate PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML. The original author, Ian Back, wrote mPDF to output PDF files "on the fly" from his website and handle different languages. It is slower than original scripts like HTML2FPDF and produces larger files when using Unicode fonts, but supports CSS styles etc. and has a lot of enhancements. Supports almost all languages, including RTL (Arabic and Hebrew) and CJK (Chinese, Japanese and Korean). Supports nested block-level elements (such as P, DIV),
