am start: start an Activity.  Options are:
-D: enable debugging
-W: wait for launch to complete
--start-profiler <FILE>: start profiler and send results to <FILE>
-P <FILE>: like above, but profiling stops when app goes idle
-S: force stop the target app before starting the activity

am startservice: start a Service.

am force-stop: force stop everything associated with <PACKAGE>.

am broadcast: send a broadcast Intent.

am instrument: start an Instrumentation.  Typically this target <COMPONENT>
is the form <TEST_PACKAGE>/<RUNNER_CLASS>.  Options are:
-r: print raw results (otherwise decode REPORT_KEY_STREAMRESULT).  Use with
[-e perf true] to generate raw output for performance measurements.
-e <NAME> <VALUE>: set argument <NAME> to <VALUE>.  For test runners a
common form is [-e <testrunner_flag> <value>[,<value>...]].
-p <FILE>: write profiling data to <FILE>
-w: wait for instrumentation to finish before returning.  Required for
test runners.
--no-window-animation: turn off window animations will running.

am profile: start and stop profiler on a process.

am dumpheap: dump the heap of a process.  Options are:
-n: dump native heap instead of managed heap

am monitor: start monitoring for crashes or ANRs.
--gdb: start gdbserv on the given port at crash/ANR

am screen-compat: control screen compatibility mode of <PACKAGE>.

am display-size: override display size.
