How to list all debuggable applications?

Question

I want to see all the debuggable applications that are installed on my android phone.

Can I know them using adb? If yes, how?

Answer 1

The 3rd column in the /data/system/packages.list has the debuggable flag.

So you can do adb shell grep " 1 /" /data/system/packages.list to list all debuggable packages.

Answer 2

The packages.list file is readable on rooted phones only. You can do something like this in an adb shell:

for p in $(pm list packages | cut -d : -f 2); do (run-as $p id >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo $p); done
