• user -  Limited access; suited for production
  
• userdebug - Like user but with root access and debug capability; preferred for debugging
  
• eng - Development configuration with additional debugging tools
  

        "...The userdebug build should behave the same as the user build, 
         with the ability to enable additional debugging that normally violates 
         the security model of the platform. This makes the userdebug build 
         good for user testing with greater diagnosis capabilities...."

a quick google search for " screencap screenrecord adb " got me to
Capture Picture and Record Video using ADB

from system/VM on same LAN as tinker board..

Code:

  adb connect 192.168.0.21
  adb root
  adb connect 192.168.0.21
  adb remount
  adb shell

Code:

rk3288:/ # which screencap
/system/bin/screencap
rk3288:/ # which screenrecord
/system/bin/screenrecord
rk3288:/ #

Screen Capture

Code:

adb shell screencap -p > myfile.jpg

"Just use the above command, to capture the image on your phone to myfile.jpg."

soooo.... to capture tinker board screenshots on LAN connected system/VM..

Code:

k247@ubuntutb:~/Downloads$ adb shell screencap -p -d 0 > Screenshots/Screenshot_k01.png
k247@ubuntutb:~/Downloads$ adb shell screencap -p -d 0 > Screenshots/Screenshot_k02.png

Screen Record

Code:

adb shell screenrecord /sdcard/video.mp4

"To record the video, you can’t straight away record the file onto your computer. 
You need to store it in your phone sdcard first..."

for videos.. found a workaround for the 3 mins time limit.. but I had to also 
disable hardware Codec accelerations in kodi & Vlc.. 

Code:

adb shell "\
screenrecord --bit-rate 6M --size 1920x1080 --time-limit 180 /sdcard/Screenshots/Screenvideo_K01.mp4; \
screenrecord --bit-rate 6M --size 1920x1080 --time-limit 180 /sdcard/Screenshots/Screenvideo_K02.mp4; \
screenrecord --bit-rate 6M --size 1920x1080 --time-limit 180 /sdcard/Screenshots/Screenvideo_K03.mp4; \
screenrecord --bit-rate 6M --size 1920x1080 --time-limit 180 /sdcard/Screenshots/Screenvideo_K04.mp4; \
screenrecord --bit-rate 6M --size 1920x1080 --time-limit 180 /sdcard/Screenshots/Screenvideo_K05.mp4"

this makes 5 X 3 mins video files that can be mkvmerge for a 15 mins video file ]]]].....
[bit-rate 6M: size 1920x1080: 24 fps] / [bit-rate 8M : size 1920x1080: 30 fps] /  [bit-rate 16M : size 1920x1080: 60 fps]

sooooo.. just adb pull the 5 video files to LAN connected system/VM &

Code:

mkvmerge -o Screenvideo_K_15mins.mp4 \
Screenvideo_K01.mp4 \+ \
Screenvideo_K02.mp4 \+ \
Screenvideo_K03.mp4 \+ \
Screenvideo_K04.mp4 \+ \
Screenvideo_K05.mp4

note.. make sure to.. 

Code:

sudo apt install vlc ffmpeg mkvtoolnix

on system/VM... ]]]]......


Screen Stream
now something to try, once adb connected from system/VM ...

Code:

adb exec-out "while true; do screenrecord --bit-rate=6M --output-format=h264 --size 1920x1080 --time-limit 180 -; done" | ffplay -framerate 30 -framedrop -bufsize 6M -

39 seconds latter.. 
.. ;-].. pipe: window opens... streaming tinker board screen..

Termux with auto-starting SSH server & Root shell

---

So.. Why Termux?
well..  AOSP (Android Open Source Project) / TinkerOS_Android 7 Nougat V14.4.0.5..
doesn't come with a terminal App.. but.. this userdebug build configuration is primarily used for developing Android
and comes with su binary and adb enabled by default.. The su binary in this build is only accessible by certain uid..
root & shell, I believe.. adb can be used to connect to mksh [MirBSD Korn Shell LINUX interactive user interface]
via USB / Serial or Network tcp/ip [LAN/Wifi]..

What is Termux?
Termux is an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment app that works directly with no rooting or setup required.
A minimal base system is installed automatically - additional packages are available using the APT package manager.
here are some links that might help...

Termux Setup on tinker board with root shell
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
after you install the App form Play Store.. or download Termux_v0.98_apkpure.com.apk  
and install using file manger.. you also need to find and download 
su binary that has features like [su --auto-daemon]..

the default su installed..

Code:

rk3288:/ # su --help
usage: su [UID[,GID[,GID2]...]] [COMMAND [ARG...]]

Switch to WHO (default 'root') and run the given command (default sh).

where WHO is a comma-separated list of user, group,
and supplementary groups in that order.
rk3288:/ #

if you fully root tinker board using Magisk Manager Latest Version 7.5.1

Code:

rk3288:/ # su --help

Usage: su [options] [-] [user [argument...]]

Options:
 -c, --command COMMAND         pass COMMAND to the invoked shell
 -h, --help                    display this help message and exit
 -, -l, --login                pretend the shell to be a login shell
 -m, -p,
 --preserve-environment        preserve the entire environment

Setup sshd for password-less login.. on port 8022
------------------------------------------------------
so you will need to copy id_rsa.pub of connecting system..
to.. ~/.ssh/authorized_keys... on tinker board..

on connecting system, this..

Code:

cd ~/.ssh
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048 -f id_rsa

generates private RSA key with 2048 bit key length and saves it to file `id_rsa`

Example.. allow my system @ 192.168.0.55 to connect to tinker board..

Code:

ssh k247@192.168.0.55 'cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' | cat >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
----- enter pass -----

from tinker board Termux, Edit file
nano $PREFIX/etc/ssh/sshd_config

Code:

...
PasswordAuthentication no
...

exit termux, clear from Recent List & re-start termux App..


to Auto Start sshd..
you do not need to add sshd to ~/.bashrc as termux-services in installed..

to start sshd as service..

Code:

sv up sshd
sv-enable sshd

note.. Enabling a service will make it autostart.. ;-]..

now... need to find a way 
to auto run Termux @ boot...

option [1]
install & open AutoStart - No root and add termux App twice..  
I had to add it twice for termux to start with session 1..

also.. it can take ups 2-4 mins before you see session 1.. ;-[...  

option [2]
thanks to doggedly - AUTOSTART, START ON BOOT SCRIPT?
from system/VM on same LAN as tinker board..

Code:

adb connect 192.168.0.21
adb connect root
adb connect 192.168.0.21
adb remount

Note... this will give you (read,write) for /system but not /......

make file.. 
nano init.asus.sh

Code:

sleep 90&& ./system/etc/init.asus.autostart.sh&

push file to tinker board..

Code:

adb push init.asus.sh /system/etc/init.asus.sh

then make file.. 
nano init.asus.autostart.sh

Code:

#!/system/bin/sh
sleep 05&& am start -n com.termux/com.termux.HomeActivity&
sleep 30&& am start -n com.termux/com.termux.app.TermuxActivity&
sleep 30&& am start -n com.termux/com.termux.HomeActivity&
sleep 30&& am start -n com.termux/com.termux.app.TermuxActivity&

push file to tinker board..

Code:

adb push init.asus.autostart.sh /system/etc/init.asus.autostart.sh
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/etc/init.asus.autostart.sh
adb shell

now... Termux runs after boot with Session 1 ;-]...

better to adb pull /system/etc/mkshrc & edit file on system/VM first.. before you adb push it back to tinker board..

to open Android root sh (Bourne shell) with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set. so to run Linux apps..
adb connect into shell 
and run alias 
sush

to open Android root bash shell with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set... 
adb connect into shell 
and run alias 
subash

& to run Linux apps in mksh..
adb connect into shell 
and run alias
expath

note.. never install or update with pkg 
from adb connect shell ;-].....

if you ever find folders or files not owned by termux user u0_a60....
then you can fix by.. 

Code:

cd "folderName"

sudo chown -R u0_a60:u0_a60 .

cd ..

sudo chown u0_a60:u0_a60 "folderName"

this I needed to do for /data/data/com.termux/files/usr folder after I ran 
> sudo apt-get update, &
> sudo pkg update.... by mistake [[[.....
NEVER EVER run pkg update as root ;-]...

restart tinker board so to continue to configure... 

Code:

adb reboot
