Did you use mysendevent-arm64? If not, modify replay_touch_events.sh (line 12) to use that one.

Ok, yes, then it works, but the script should then somehow query for the architecture and push the correct binary. But even this way, I just end up in a denied Permission in both, a stock Pixel 7a and a rooted Android 14 device: android-touch-record-replay $ ./replay_touch_events.sh Looking for touchscreen device... /dev/input/event6 /dev/input/event8 /dev/input/event0 /dev/input/event7 /dev/input/event3 Touchscreen device found! -> /dev/input/event3 ---/data/local/tmp/mysendevent--- recorded_touch_events.txt: 1 file pushed. could not open /dev/input/event3, Permission denied

iirc root is required since Android 10. I've never used it with newer versions.

hmm...but I just remembered something. I think when the replay_touch_events.sh calls adb shell the command is executed with the shell user. This user probably doesn't execute stuff with root by default. Instead of using:

adb shell /data/local/tmp/mysendevent "${TOUCH_DEVICE#*-> }" /sdcard/recorded_touch_events.txt

maybe using:

adb shell su -c '/data/local/tmp/mysendevent "${TOUCH_DEVICE#*-> }" /sdcard/recorded_touch_events.txt'

will do the trick.

What worked for me was to edit the file replay_touch_events.sh, adding "-arm64" to every occurrence of the mysendevent thing, so the right binary was pushed
