Android Binder Go

What it does

Android Binder Go provides a high-performance, pure Go implementation of the Android Binder IPC wire protocol. It allows developers to interact directly with Android system services—such as ActivityManager, PowerManager, and various HALs—by communicating via /dev/binder ioctl syscalls. This bypasses the need for the Java SDK, NDK, or cgo, making it ideal for lightweight system tools and cross-platform Linux utilities that need to control Android hardware or query system state.

Tools

• QuerySystemServices: Retrieve battery levels, GPS location, and thermal status.
• ControlHardware: Toggle flashlight, manage Bluetooth, and configure audio settings.
• InspectPackages: List all installed Android packages and query their metadata.
• ManagePower: Check screen interactivity and power-save modes.
• ServiceDiscovery: Enumerate all active binder services on the device.
