Android Question phone.shell Error

[mrushdi]

I have tested the bellow code with many real devices flawlessly, but it returned an error (check security) with HTC Desire 320 running 4.4.2, any advice?

Dim p As Phone
    Dim Response, Error As StringBuilder
    Response.Initialize
    Error.Initialize
    'Ping Google DNS - if you can't reach this you are in serious trouble!
    p.Shell("ping -c 1 8.8.8.8",Null,Response,Error)
    Log("======= Response ========")
    Log(Response)
    Log("======= Error ===========")
    Log(Error)
    Log("======================")

    If Error.ToString="" Then
        Return True
       
    Else
        Return False
    End If

It is possible the some manufacturers disable all shell commands.
