    Hi, I have been trying to get the custom commands, but seems im missing something.
    I have been following the guide but adb commands like

    adb shell settings list system
    adb shell settings list global
    adb shell settings list secure

    does not return a list, but these texts


    C:\android\platform-tools>adb shell settings list system
    usage: settings [--user NUM] get namespace key
    settings [--user NUM] put namespace key value
    settings [--user NUM] delete namespace key
    'namespace' is one of {system, secure, global}, case-insensitive
    If '--user NUM' is not given, the operations are performed on the owner user.

    C:\android\platform-tools>adb shell settings list global
    usage: settings [--user NUM] get namespace key
    settings [--user NUM] put namespace key value
    settings [--user NUM] delete namespace key
    'namespace' is one of {system, secure, global}, case-insensitive
    If '--user NUM' is not given, the operations are performed on the owner user.

    any idea what I am missing?

    This is a tiny chinese phone with android 5.1. It enables a floating assist button at each boot, despite it being disables in accesibility settings

    Hmm, sorry no idea really, buy maybe you can use the latest beta :) That has a handy Secure Settings assistant to help you find any custom setting. Can you please try that? Thanks!

    You are executing adb commands from Windows as seen by your command prompt but on your phone you are executing from Linux.

    Google adb Linux commands, there are differences.
