- prevent applications from reading the clipboard
- display device's boot count (requires Android 7.0+)
Invocation
From within a terminal on your device, for example adb shell or Termux invoke the script using either nanodroid-util [switch] [parameter(s)] or nutl [switch] [parameter(s)]
Feature overview
Fix OTA-Update issues
-f, --fix-update
Fix issues with the navigation bar, status bar or lock screen after applying an OTA update.

Airplane Mode settings
-a, --airplane-mode
Change Airplane Mode settings. This is interactive. User will be given instructions on what to do. This allows to change which radios are disabled by Airplane Mode. It also force Android to not allow re-activation of those radios until Airplane Mode is switched off.
Prevent audio focus stealing
-F, --audio-focus [app]
Some apps stop audio playback of other apps when you bring them in foreground (or activate them in multi window mode). With this, you can prevent Android from allowing this behaviour.
[app] is the package name (com.organisation.application format). For example: com.xda.labs
Prevent clipboard reading
-B, --read-clipboard [app]
Many apps have the permission to read the clipboard for no reason. You can prevent this behaviour with this.
[app] is the package name (com.organisation.application format). For example: com.xda.labs
Note: do NOT do this in applications like Browsers or the-like as you'll disable the whole copy-paste feature for those app(s).
Read boot count
-b, --boot-count
Show how often the device was booted; requires Android 7.0+
Reset GCM Connection
You can reset GCM connection of all apps using -r, --reset-gms-data or for a single app using -r [appid], --reset-gms-data [appid]
This is especially useful when the ROM in use previously had GApps installed and now you're not receving any push messages anymore.
Reset Permissions
In a rare corner case, applications are not granted permission to access camera or storage, despite the user granted the corresponding permission. Using -R, --reset-permissions followed by a reboot will fix this issue.
