Answer 1

You can use this method to run commands

private void runShellCommand(String command) throws Exception {
    Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
    process.waitFor();
}

Answer 2

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);
