Replacing USB_SERVICE

[José Freitas]

Hello guys,

on SystemServer the android Platform instantiates and sets a USB_SERVICE that will handle permissions and other aspects of the usb connection.

I was wondering if, on a rooted device, I could replace the USB_SERVICE with my own service implementation using something like:
ServiceManager.addService(Context.USB_SERVICE, myOwnUsbServiceObject) 
But it seems to be not possible. Or is it and I am doing something wrong?

Is there any other way to replace a system service (on a rooted device)?

Thanks and Cheers

​if you have sources, then nothing stop to replace system service with your own implementation.​

 

Is there any other way to replace a system service (on a rooted device)?
