ddi - Dynamic Dalvik Instrumentation Toolkit
Simple and easy to use toolkit for dynamic instrumentation of Dalvik code. Instrumentation is based on library injection and hooking method entry points (in-line hooking). The actual instrumentation code is written using the JNI interface.
The DDI further supports loading additional dex classes into a process. This enables instrumentation code to be partially written in Java and thus simplifies interacting with the instrumented process and the Android framework.
The toolkit is based on ADBI (see below) and consists of one main library called dalvikhook. Dalvikhook uses ADBI and the hijack utility that is part of ADBI.
hijack (from ADBI)
The hijack tool provides the injection functionality. It supports a number of modes for supporting older and newer Android devices. hijack provides help on the command line.
libdalvikhook
The library provides the hooking and unhooking functionality. The library is compiled as a static library so it can be directly included in the actual instrumentation library. This is done so we can keep everything in /data/local/tmp.
Below we provide and easy to follow step-by-step instructions for howto build and use DDI.
Examples
There are two examples included in the library. The strmon example hooks a number of methods from String related classes and the the getMethod used for reflection. The smsdispatch example hooks the SMSDispatcher of the Android framework. This example loads additional dex classes into the com.android.phone process. The instrumentation code takes every incoming SMS message and reverses the message body and injects a fake message with the reverse message text (you will get two messages). All examples are supplied in full source. For details please read slide deck [1].

=== Prerequisites ===
Android SDK
Android NDK
ADBI (see below)
== Build ADBI ==
git clone https://github.com/crmulliner/adbi.git
follow readme
folders should be:
adbi/
ddi/
== Pull Libraries from Device ==
cd dalvikhook
cd jni
cd libs
adb pull /system/lib/libdl.so
adb pull /system/lib/libdvm.so
== Build libdalvikhook ==
cd dalvikhook
cd jni
ndk-build
== Build strmon example ==
cd examples
cd strmon
cd jni
ndk-build
cd ..
adb push libs/armeabi/libstrmon.so /data/local/tmp
== How to Run strmon ==
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp
# GET PID from com.android.contacts
>/data/local/tmp/strmon.log
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/strmon.log
./hijack -d -p PID -l /data/local/tmp/libstrmon.so
cat strmon.log
output:
libstrmon: started
do_patch
sb20.toString() = en_US
sb13 = Latn
sb13.equalsIgnoreCase() = 0 Arab
sb13 = Latn
sb13.equalsIgnoreCase() = 0 Hebr
sb20.toString() = en-US
sb7 = :
sb7.indexOf() = -1 (i=0) \E
sb20.toString() = \Q:\E
== Advanced Options ==
Inject code at application startup before application code starts executing. This is done by attaching to zygote (-z -p PID_of_zygote) and using the -s option to supply the main class of application (take from manifest or by running 'ps' on the adb shell).
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp
# GET PID of >>> zygote <<<
./hijack -d -p PID -z -l /data/local/tmp/libstrmon.so -s com.android.contacts
== Build smsdispatch example (advanced!) ==
cd examples
cd smsdispatch
cd jni
ndk-build
cd ..
adb push libs/armeabi/libsmsdispatch.so /data/local/tmp
== Howto Run smsdispatch ==
adb push ddiclasses.dex /data/local/tmp/
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp
>/data/local/tmp/smsdispatch.log
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/smsdispatch.log
chmod 777 /data/dalvik-cache/
# GET PID from com.android.phone
./hijack -d -p PID -l /data/local/tmp/libsmsdispatch.so
send SMS message to that phone (send to yourself if you only have one phone)
further notes: if you have problems that your modified version of ddiclasses.dex is not loaded you need to
remove the class from the dalvik cache rm /data/dalvik-cache/data@local@tmp@ddiclasses.dex
now inspect logfiles and logcat...
$ adb logcat
