    Hi Vikram,

     

    To run ADB shell commands on an Android device, you should use the Device.ShellExecute method:

    def Test():
  Mobile.SetCurrent("emulator-5554")
  strDate = Mobile.Device().ShellExecute("date") # Do not prefix commands with "adb shell"

  Log.Message(strDate)

    # Result:
