Better Terminal Emulator Pro
QR Code Thumb

BTEP is an advanced Terminal Emulator and SSH client for your phone or tablet. Unleash the command line potential of the Android console with this terminal. Best if rooted, but root not required. Run native Linux apps with Better Terminal Emulator Pro. Excellent soft keyboard and Sywpe support, send all VT-220 character codes including F1-F20. Includes SSH/Telnet client, BusyBox, BASH Shell. If you find any bugs or have any ideas for improvement, please contact me via email, or file a report at: http://littlegreenbugs.com/bugs/apps/magicandroidapps-bettertermpro/ Now supports Tegra2-based tablets such as the Viewsonic gTablet, Motorola Xoom, Galaxy Tab 10.1, ASUS Transformer! Works great with the Motorola Bluetooth Keyboard and Apple Wireless Keyboard on Xoom. I am working on better Honeycomb support for the tablet form factor as well as HDMI out on the Xoom. If you are having trouble with the soft keyboard on HTC phones like the Desire HD or Thunderbolt, try changing to another soft keyboard. Seems like the HTC soft keyboard has some issues with BTEP, but other keyboards work fine. Hacker's Keyboard is my new favorite keyboard for use with BTEP. This terminal emulator supports both ARM and x86 processors, and will work with Android-x86. Now includes Frotz and the classic Colossal Cave Adventure game in the enhanced utilities for fun. Busybox has recently been updated to support SMP systems, ie, in "top." Known issues: * On Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Galaxy S II, SSH has issues with some WiFi routers. Thanks for using BTEP! Recent changes: * * * NOTE * * * Upgrading to this version will cause a new version of the Enhanced Utiities to be downloaded. * Add option to disable "Sticky" modifier keys (useful when using Bluetooth or USB keyboards with tablets.) * Fix segmentation fault (segfault) issues seen with some custom ROMs. * Upgrade SSH. * Add SMP support to BusyBox. * Full support for x86 and ARM-based platforms. * Included Frotz and Adventure game for fun.

Default Better Terminal Emulator Pro: Very nice Terminal emulator.

This terminal emulator I have been using for a while.
It is very similar to the standard Terminal Emulator that ships with Cyanogen's ROMs.

Some of the changes I have noticed that it has a nice colours (like Linux) on the CLI.

Useful things you can do with this app is connect to SSH/telnet servers, diagnose your network connection (using tools like netstat and ping).
Basically use it to call Busybox commands with a Unix look and feel environment.

I normally use this to debug my applications by calling logcat or bugreport. Then you can pipe it to a text file on your SD card like so:
# su
# logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt

Of course doing that requires root and you probably want root to make the most out of this application.
