That would not be possible on a secured android device, ie, it is off topic for this group The code has been built to be a .so by NDK. > The code to be run as root must be a stand alone executable rather than a jni library, so it can run in a new process. The "su" hack on some unofficial roms does not and can not be made to elevate an application to root, all it can do is launch a new process from a stand alone executable and have that process run as root and perhaps do things on behalf of your app. It's not really on topic here as its outside of the capabilities of the android sdk but it's been covered numerous times on stack overflow. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
