yes you are right Francisco we can not install .exe in our mobile phone directly. because I am trying to install busybox.exe but it did not work for me but when I pass via adb shell it does install it in a folder that I create called busybox in data folder. that is why I want to put it somewhere in my android application and then push it to the phone and install it using some linux commands. so I am wondering if that will work. and I agree for the part that the phone has to be rooted. for the moment I am working on emulator so I think no problem for that. but anybody have an idea how can I install busybox using my android application? thank you and I hope I was clear enough and I expressed myself in propor why. if not I will try to explain it more.
