Frida Setup Checklist
Use this skill before writing hooks or when the environment is unknown.
Host Checks
python3 -m pip show frida frida-tools
frida --version
frida-ls-devices
frida-ps -Uai
If frida is missing, install user-local tools unless the project documents another path:
python3 -m pip install --user --upgrade frida-tools
Android Checks
adb devices
adb shell getprop ro.product.cpu.abi
adb shell getprop ro.build.version.release
adb shell id
adb shell /data/local/tmp/frida-server --version
frida-ps -Uai
Match host frida --version to the device frida-server major/minor version. If versions differ, fix that before debugging hooks.
iOS Checks
frida-ls-devices
frida-ps -Uai
frida -U -f com.example.app -l smoke.js --no-pause
Use a smoke script before loading real hooks:
console.log("platform", Process.platform, "arch", Process.arch);
console.log("ObjC.available", ObjC.available);
Minimal Smoke Scripts
Android:
console.log("platform", Process.platform, "arch", Process.arch);
console.log("Java.available", Java.available);
Java.perform(() => console.log("Java.perform ok"));
Native-only target:
console.log(Process.id, Process.arch, Process.pointerSize);
for (const m of Process.enumerateModules().slice(0, 10)) {
console.log(m.name, m.base, m.size);
}
Proof To Report
- Exact host Frida version and remote server/Gadget version.
- Device, OS version, architecture, package/bundle/process id.
- Attach or spawn command used.
- Smoke script output proving
Java,ObjC, or native module access.
