Why not using an ADB implementation like Dadb? #78

Closed sharpordie closed 1 year ago

sharpordie commented 1 year ago

I wanted to ask you why you don't use an ADB implementation for LADB? Is it really better to use a binary compiled by "a guy" and that is only compatible with some ARM processors?

I am concerned about the security aspect and I would like to know if there are real benefits over libraries like Dadb?

https://github.com/mobile-dev-inc/dadb - it looks very interesting indeed.

2 notes however: at the time ladb started, dadb was still not born, so there wasn't really a choice back then. And the guy that compiled the adb binary back then 2 years ago is a more than respectable developer with a reputation, he is not "some guy", he is working on the things and roms at low level so i wouldn't worry about virus in the binary. I had the same concerns and i did my own little research.

DADB is cool but for now sadly, it does not support Android 11's pairing mechanism yet. Let's reopen this issue when that functionality gets added. But it is very promising!
