How do I perform a hot reboot on my device using the Terminal Emulator? I do not have busybox installed, but my phone is rooted.
EDIT: I am looking for a solution to perform a hot reboot(see Quick Question - Hot Reboot - Android) using the terminal emulator/shell.
if device is rooted you can kill the gui process from root shell, it will restart immediately. terminal app and all subprocesses are killed too, but adb shell processes will survive. all current mounts remain intact (even manual mounts) device is not fully rebooting
killall system_server
