Hello Guys,

Iam trying to extract an value out off an app runing on Nox app player.
So i installed ceserver_x86 on nox and managed to connect with ce6.5 to locate the pointer to the value.

Pointer(Image - 1)

so far so good...

now i wanna write a programm in c# that reads the value where the pointer points to but i think i cant open the process without ceserver runing and connect. (cause i cant access the app process com.something)

So here my question is it possible to read the value without ceserver or do i have to write an app that read the value and provide it for my programm?

PS: I know my english-writing-skills are terrible... thanks for reading anyway

Hopi

unless you can give your GUI app root access (looked into that but couldn't find a way to make the zygote spawn it as root, if you do, let me know) then you need to launch a worker process for you that does run as root.

that side process can either quickly do a ptrace attach, read, write, exit, or you can let it listen to commands your gui gives. (CE uses sockets for that, but I'm sure there is a different IPC method as well)
