Answer 1

Download the RootTools.jar from this link https://github.com/Stericson/RootTools/releases

Put that .jar file into your project's 'libs' directory

import com.stericson.RootTools.*;

Command cmd=new Command(0,"chmod 766 /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness");
RootShell.getShell(true).add(cmd);
