You can use this method to run commands
private void runShellCommand(String command) throws Exception {
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
process.waitFor();
}

Hai Hw
any idea of this error "java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "adb": error=13, Permission denied" ?

@HaiHw Have you ever solved that io exception? I'm getting the same thing.
Hai Hw
@EugenioLopez I think it requires rooted device to run.

No rooted device won't solve the problem @Eugenio Lopez

@HaiHw -> just write the command it self : for example :use "settings put secure location_providers_allowed" instead of "adb shell settings put secure location_providers_allowed..."
OK you will be needing Runtime class. There is a good tutorial on executing shell commands here. For a quick answer, try this:
String commandToRun = "adb shell settings put secure location_providers_allowed gps, wifi,network a broadcast -a android.location.GPS_ENABLED_CHANGE --ez enabled true";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(commandToRun);
