Mass install on android devices via BASH

How to install on all your android devices consecutively

This is the command you copy paste on your bash prompt or script:

for d in $(adb devices | egrep "device$" | sed "s/[[:space:]]device$//");
do
  adb -s $d install -r bin/some.apk;
done

Determine that adb can be accessed from the $PATH variable. That or write out the full path where the adb command is located.

PATH="$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$PATH"

\s+

or

[\t ]+

and you might have to use sed like this:
