AndroidViewClient ERROR: Device is secure

I'm trying to use AndroidViewClient for some automation. On [github][1] there is a page about "Secure Mode". It states this:

AndroidViewClient has two possible back-ends:

UiAutomator works on Android API 16 and higher, so if your device has a previous version your only alternative is ViewServer.

I'm trying to run dump.py, but I'm getting the "Device is secure" error. The secure mode page states that "your only alternative is ViewServer". What is viewServer and how do I use it with monkeyrunner?

I'm having a tough time grasping this because according to this image on github page, if I don't have API lvl 16 or higher, I can use the id names if I have them (which I do) I just don't know how to do it.

In summary,

I have devices at API level 15 and lower, and the source code, and I want to automate my application using viewID's. Is that possible?

If your device API level is < 16 your alternatives are (as depicted in this image):

  • LocalViewServer if you have access to application source code. LocalViewServer is a fork of ViewServer
  • Use the emulator (secure mode is disabled)
  • Root the device and disable secure mode yourself

LocalViewServer features LocalViewServerActivity which you can extend to simplify ViewServer implementation in your Activity.

Check the sample source code at TemperatureConverterActivity.

The reason for the error you posted seems to be:

OSError: Cannot run program "C:\Windows\system32\adb.exe" (in directory "C:\User
s\EGHDK\android-sdk\tools"): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the
file specified

You should set environment variable ANDROID_HOME correctly to point to Android SDK installation.
