### DeviceUtils.GrantPermissions

### DeviceUtils.HasRoot

Checks whether or not adbd has root privileges.
```
    A device is considered to have root if all commands are implicitly run
    with elevated privileges, i.e. without having to use "su" to run them.

    Note that some devices do not allow this implicit privilige elevation,
    but _can_ run commands as root just fine when done explicitly with "su".
    To check if your device can run commands with elevated privileges at all
    use:

      device.HasRoot() or device.NeedsSU()

    Luckily, for the most part you don't need to worry about this and using
    RunShellCommand(cmd, as_root=True) will figure out for you the right
    command incantation to run with elevated privileges.

    Args:
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Returns:
      True if adbd has root privileges, False otherwise.

    Raises:
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```


### DeviceUtils.Install

        bundle.
      allow_downgrade: A boolean indicating if we should allow downgrades.
      reinstall: A boolean indicating if we should keep any existing app data.
        Ignored if |apk| is a bundle.
      permissions: Set of permissions to set. If not set, finds permissions with
          apk helper. To set no permissions, pass [].
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries
      modules: An iterable containing specific bundle modules to install.
          Error if set and |apk| points to an APK instead of a bundle.
      fake_modules: An iterable containing specific bundle modules that should
          have their apks copied to |MODULES_SRC_DIRECTORY_PATH| subdirectory
          rather than installed. Thus the app can emulate SplitCompat while
          running. This should not have any overlap with |modules|.
      additional_locales: An iterable with additional locales to install for a
        bundle.

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError if the installation fails.
      CommandTimeoutError if the installation times out.

      retries: number of retries

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError if the installation fails.
      CommandTimeoutError if the installation times out.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.

      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```


### DeviceUtils.ListProcesses

```
    Args:
      device_path: A string containing the absolute path to the file on the
                   device, or an iterable of paths to check.
      force: Whether to remove the path(s) with force (-f).
      recursive: Whether to remove any directories in the path(s) recursively.

### DeviceUtils.RestartAdbd

### DeviceUtils.RunShellCommand

Run an ADB shell command.
```
    The command to run |cmd| should be a sequence of program arguments
    (preferred) or a single string with a shell script to run.

    When |cmd| is a sequence, it is assumed to contain the name of the command
    to run followed by its arguments. In this case, arguments are passed to the
    command exactly as given, preventing any further processing by the shell.
    This allows callers to easily pass arguments with spaces or special
    characters without having to worry about quoting rules. Whenever possible,
    it is recomended to pass |cmd| as a sequence.

    When |cmd| is passed as a single string, |shell| should be set to True.
    The command will be interpreted and run by the shell on the device,
    allowing the use of shell features such as pipes, wildcards, or variables.
    Failing to set shell=True will issue a warning, but this will be changed
    to a hard failure in the future (see: catapult:#3242).

    This behaviour is consistent with that of command runners in cmd_helper as
    well as Python's own subprocess.Popen.

    TODO(crbug.com/1029769) Change the default of |check_return| to True when
    callers have switched to the new behaviour.

    Args:
      cmd: A sequence containing the command to run and its arguments, or a
        string with a shell script to run (should also set shell=True).
      shell: A boolean indicating whether shell features may be used in |cmd|.
      check_return: A boolean indicating whether or not the return code should
        be checked.
      cwd: The device directory in which the command should be run.
      env: The environment variables with which the command should be run.
      run_as: A string containing the package as which the command should be
        run.
      as_root: A boolean indicating whether the shell command should be run
        with root privileges.
      single_line: A boolean indicating if only a single line of output is
        expected.
      large_output: Uses a work-around for large shell command output. Without
        this large output will be truncated.
      raw_output: Whether to only return the raw output
          (no splitting into lines).
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Returns:
      If single_line is False, the output of the command as a list of lines,
      otherwise, a string with the unique line of output emmited by the command
      (with the optional newline at the end stripped).

    Raises:
      AdbCommandFailedError if check_return is True and the exit code of
        the command run on the device is non-zero.
      CommandFailedError if single_line is True but the output contains two or
        more lines.
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```

    Args:
      keycode: A integer keycode to send to the device.
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Raises:

               or disabled.
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Returns:
      True if the device-side property changed and a restart is required as a
      result, False otherwise.

    Raises:
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
```


### DeviceUtils.SetProp

Sets a property on the device.
```
    Args:
      property_name: A string containing the name of the property to set on
                     the device.
      value: A string containing the value to set to the property on the
             device.
      check: A boolean indicating whether to check that the property was
             successfully set on the device.
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError if check is true and the property was not correctly
        set on the device (e.g. because it is not rooted).
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
```


### DeviceUtils.SetScreen

Turns screen on and off.
```
    Args:
      on: bool to decide state to switch to. True = on False = off.
```


### DeviceUtils.SetWebViewFallbackLogic

Set whether WebViewUpdateService's "fallback logic" should be enabled.
```
    WebViewUpdateService has nonintuitive "fallback logic" for devices where
    Monochrome (Chrome Stable) is preinstalled as the WebView provider, with a
    "stub" (little-to-no code) implementation of standalone WebView.

    "Fallback logic" (enabled by default) is designed, in the case where the
    user has disabled Chrome, to fall back to the stub standalone WebView by
    enabling the package. The implementation plumbs through the Chrome APK until
    Play Store installs an update with the full implementation.

    A surprising side-effect of "fallback logic" is that, immediately after
    sideloading WebView, WebViewUpdateService re-disables the package and
    uninstalls the update. This can prevent successfully using standalone
    WebView for development, although "fallback logic" can be disabled on
    userdebug/eng devices.

    Because this is only relevant for devices with the standalone WebView stub,
    this command is only relevant on N-P (inclusive).

    You can determine if "fallback logic" is currently enabled by checking
    FallbackLogicEnabled in the dictionary returned by
    GetWebViewUpdateServiceDump.

    Args:
      enabled: bool - True for enabled, False for disabled
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError on failure.
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```


### DeviceUtils.SetWebViewImplementation

```
    Args:
      package_name: The package name of a WebView implementation. The package
        must be already installed on the device.
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError on failure.
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```


### DeviceUtils.StartActivity

```
    Args:
      intent_obj: An Intent object to send.
      blocking: A boolean indicating whether we should wait for the activity to
                finish launching.
      trace_file_name: If present, a string that both indicates that we want to
                       profile the activity and contains the path to which the
                       trace should be saved.
      force_stop: A boolean indicating whether we should stop the activity
                  before starting it.
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError if the activity could not be started.
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError if the service could not be started.
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```


### DeviceUtils.StatDirectory

List file and stat info for all entries on a device directory.
```
    Implementation notes: this is currently implemented by parsing the output
    of 'ls -a -l' on the device. Whether possible and convenient, we attempt to
    make parsing strict and return values mirroring those of the standard |os|
    and |stat| Python modules.

    Mirroring os.listdir (and most client expectations) the resulting list
    does not include the special entries '.' and '..' even if they are present
    in the directory.

    Args:
      device_path: A string containing the path of the directory on the device
                   to list.
      as_root: A boolean indicating whether the to use root privileges to list
               the directory contents.
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Returns:
      A list of dictionaries, each containing the following keys:

        st_rdev_pair: Device type as (major, minior) (only if inode device).
        st_size: Size of file, in bytes (may be missing for non-regular files).
        st_mtime: Time of most recent modification, in seconds since epoch
          (although resolution is in minutes).
        symbolic_link_to: If entry is a symbolic link, path where it points to;
          missing otherwise.

    Raises:
      AdbCommandFailedError if |device_path| does not specify a valid and
          accessible directory in the device.
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```


### DeviceUtils.StatPath

Get the stat attributes of a file or directory on the device.

      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```


### DeviceUtils.TakeBugReport

Takes a bug report and dumps it to the specified path.
```
    This doesn't use adb's bugreport option since its behavior is dependent on
    both adb version and device OS version. To make it simpler, this directly
    runs the bugreport command on the device itself and dumps the stdout to a
    file.

    Args:
      path: Path on the host to drop the bug report.
      timeout: (optional) Timeout per try in seconds.
      retries: (optional) Number of retries to attempt.
```


### DeviceUtils.TakeScreenshot

Takes a screenshot of the device.
```
    Args:
      host_path: A string containing the path on the host to save the
                 screenshot to. If None, a file name in the current
                 directory will be generated.
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Returns:
      The name of the file on the host to which the screenshot was saved.

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError on failure.
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```

      keep_data: (optional) Whether to keep the data and cache directories.
      timeout: Timeout in seconds.
      retries: Number of retries.

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError if the uninstallation fails.
      CommandTimeoutError if the uninstallation times out.
      DeviceUnreachableError on missing device.
```


### DeviceUtils.WaitUntilFullyBooted

Wait for the device to fully boot.
```
    This means waiting for the device to boot, the package manager to be
    available, and the SD card to be ready.
    It can optionally wait the following:
     - Wait for wifi to come up.
     - Wait for full-disk decryption to complete.

    Args:
      wifi: A boolean indicating if we should wait for wifi to come up or not.
      decrypt: A boolean indicating if we should wait for full-disk decryption
        to complete.

          root privileges (if available).
      force_push: A boolean indicating whether to force the operation to be
          performed by pushing a file to the device. The default is, when the
          contents are short, to pass the contents using a shell script instead.
      timeout: timeout in seconds
      retries: number of retries

    Raises:
      CommandFailedError if the file could not be written on the device.
      CommandTimeoutError on timeout.
