KisMth (Part 1: Basic Overview, Device Info)

There are lots of Adb tools over the internet. Of course one of them which is most famous we heard is MTK Droid Tools.

MDT was very basic yet powerful gadget. This tool is actually inspired from it, not the code but the look.

You can see its moreover like MTK Droid Tools

Also important, KisMth is not a rooting tool or any Frp removal tool it helps you to create backup of your device, let you do some more functions, etc.

The Name KisMth (pronounce: kis-mat i.e luck) given to the tool is simply because it actually depends on your device it can create a partition table without root and allow to create system backup without root and much more things.

  • On the right side you will see all logs when you perform a function.
  • On the left side in General Tab you will see some basic information also yout IMEI information if your device is rooted. (Note: There is currently problem viewing second IMEI number. I don’t know why but the code returns black lines. If I catch up with the issue will let you know)
  • At bottom there is a textbox showing some information related to size remaining of system, userdata i.e Internal storage and your C: drive (same like MTK droid tools :))

Getting Started

First of all you must connect your device to PC, also make sure adb drivers are properly installed.

(Keep in mind that, this tool is made with device having EMMC storage. So there might be some error while flashing ROM backup from recovery)

  • Now launch Kismth Tool from ADK.
  • Once launched it will automatically start scanning for the device. You will get some above results when scanning is finished.

(When it scans for the device it will actually create and saves some details of your device, its partition table, blocks, and certain basic info which can be required in future use)

  • The scanning interval is 6 secs i.e it will check device every 6 secs. To stop scanning you can click stop scan button from below. Also to refresh the device or start scanning, click on start scan button.

Installing Libraries

KisMth uses some libraries which can be separately installed on your device from it.

This can be indicated by the color of box and label text. If color of box is blue and label text somewhat says library missing, it indicates that library is not installed on your device.

  • To install missing libraries, click on Install button from the bottom.
  • Once installed it will automatically rescan the device, and you will see the color of the box turns green.

Rebooting Device

One of the basic option list can be access from the bottom right corner of the tool.

Just select any option and click on GO button to run it.

Saving Device Details

Save details option will create an .ini file containing your device info shown below.
