ADBI is a dynamic binary instrumentation toolkit for Android ARM and Thumb binaries, based on library injection and inline hooking of function entry points. It consists of a hijack injection tool and a base hooking library used to build custom instrumentation libraries.

Use cases

  • hook native functions in Android apps
  • instrument Android ARM binaries to log API calls
  • inject a shared library into a running Android process
  • trace system calls like epoll_wait on Android
  • security research on Android native code

When to choose

  • you need lightweight inline hooking on Android ARM/Thumb without a full framework
  • you want to inject instrumentation libraries into Android processes from the command line
  • you are doing low-level Android security research on older devices

When to avoid

  • you need x86/ARM64 support or modern Android versions
  • you want a maintained tool with active updates and support
  • you prefer higher-level frameworks like Frida with scripting support
