hi,

in the course of fixing http://pad.lv/1382559 adbd in vivid images now
requites you to unlock the screen first if you want to establish a
connection (from tonights nigly build on).

if you try to connect while the screen is locked adb will return
"error: closed"

to not get annoyed by having to unlock your screen all the time if you
do automated testing at home or some such, there is a way to put in a
override file so you only need to unlock once.
adbd will ignore the screen state if you "sudo touch  /data/.adb_onlock"

note this change only landed in vivid yet but will (within the next 4
weeks) land in RTM images as well.

Can we get proper certificate support first before we do this? Then we wouldn't need to touch any special files. I echo Thomi's concerns to a greater extent; this is not discoverable.
