|
||
|
||
<p>Along with new features and capabilities, the M Developer Preview includes a variety of
|
||
system changes and API behavior changes. This document highlights
|
||
some of the key changes that you should understand and account for in your apps.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you have previously published an app for Android, be aware that these changes in the
|
||
platform affect your app.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-runtime-permissions">Runtime Permissions</h1>
|
||
<p>This preview introduces a new permissions model, where users can now directly manage
|
||
app permissions at runtime. This model gives users improved visibility and control over
|
||
permissions, while streamlining the installation and auto-update processes for app developers.
|
||
Users can grant or revoke permissions individually for installed apps. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p>On your apps that target the M Preview release or higher, make sure to check for and request
|
||
permissions at runtime. To determine if your app has been granted a permission, call the
|
||
new {@link android.content.Context#checkSelfPermission(java.lang.String) checkSelfPermission()}
|
||
method. To request a permission, call the new
|
||
{@link android.app.Activity#requestPermissions(java.lang.String[], int) requestPermissions()}
|
||
method. Even if your app is not targeting the M Preview release, you should test your app under
|
||
the new permissions model.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>For details on supporting the new permissions model in your app, see the
|
||
<a href="{@docRoot}preview/features/runtime-permissions.html">
|
||
Permissions</a> developer preview page. For tips on how to assess the impact on your app,
|
||
see the <a href="{@docRoot}preview/testing/guide.html#runtime-permissions">Testing Guide</a></p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-power">Power-Saving Optimizations</h2>
|
||
<p>This preview introduces new power-saving optimizations for idle devices and apps.</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>Doze</strong>: If a user unplugs a device and leaves it stationary, with its screen off,
|
||
for a period of time, the device goes into <em>Doze</em> mode, where it attempts to keep the system
|
||
in a sleep state. In this mode, devices periodically resume normal operations for brief periods of
|
||
time so that app syncing can occur and the system can perform any pending operations.
|
||
<li><strong>App Standby</strong>: App Standby allows the system to determine that an app is idle
|
||
when the user is not actively using it. The system makes this determination when the user does not
|
||
touch the app for a certain period of time. If the device is unplugged, the system disables network
|
||
access and suspends syncs and jobs for the apps it deems idle.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>To learn more about these power-saving changes, see
|
||
<a href="{@docRoot}preview/power-mgmt.html">Power-Saving Optimizations</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-adoptable-storage">Adoptable Storage Devices</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
With this preview, users can <em>adopt</em> external storage devices such as SD cards. Adopting an
|
||
external storage device encrypts and formats the device to behave like internal storage. This
|
||
feature allows users to move both apps and private data of those apps between storage devices. When
|
||
moving apps, the system respects the
|
||
<a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/manifest-element.html#install">{@code android:installLocation}</a>
|
||
preference in the manifest.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If your app accesses the following APIs or fields, be aware that the file paths they return
|
||
will dynamically change when the app is moved between internal and external storage devices.
|
||
When building file paths, it is strongly recommended that you always call these APIs dynamically.
|
||
Don’t use hardcoded file paths or persist fully-qualified file paths that were built previously.</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>{@link android.content.Context} methods:
|
||
<ul>

|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>To debug this feature in the developer preview, you can enable adoption of a USB drive that is
|
||
connected to an Android device through a USB On-The-Go (OTG) cable, by running this command:</p>
|
||
|
||
<pre class="no-prettyprint">
|
||
$ adb shell sm set-force-adoptable true
|
||
</pre>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-apache-http-client">Apache HTTP Client Removal</h2>
|
||
<p>This preview removes support for the Apache HTTP client. If your app is using this client and
|
||
targets Android 2.3 (API level 9) or higher, use the {@link java.net.HttpURLConnection} class
|
||
instead. This API is more efficient because it reduces network use through transparent compression
|
||
and response caching, and minimizes power consumption. To continue using the Apache HTTP APIs, you
|
||
must first declare the following compile-time dependency in your {@code build.gradle} file:
|
||
</p>
|
||
<pre>
|
||
android {
|
||
useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'
|
||
}
|
||
</pre>
|
||
<p>Android is moving away from OpenSSL to the
|
||
<a href="https://boringssl.googlesource.com/boringssl/" class="external-link">BoringSSL</a>
|
||
library. If you’re using the Android NDK in your app, don't link against cryptographic libraries
|
||
that are not a part of the NDK API, such as {@code libcrypto.so} and {@code libssl.so}. These
|
||
libraries are not public APIs, and may change or break without notice across releases and devices.
|
||
In addition, you may expose yourself to security vulnerabilities. Instead, modify your
|
||
native code to call the Java cryptography APIs via JNI or to statically link against a
|
||
cryptography library of your choice.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-audiomanager-Changes">AudioManager Changes</h2>
|
||
<p>Setting the volume directly or muting specific streams via the {@link android.media.AudioManager}
|
||
class is no longer supported. The {@link android.media.AudioManager#setStreamSolo(int,boolean)
|
||
setStreamSolo()} method is deprecated, and you should call the
|
||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#requestAudioFocus(android.media.AudioManager.OnAudioFocusChangeListener, int, int) requestAudioFocus()}
|
||
method instead. Similarly, the
|
||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#setStreamMute(int,boolean) setStreamMute()} method is
|
||
deprecated; instead, call the {@link android.media.AudioManager#adjustStreamVolume(int, int, int)
|
||
adjustStreamVolume()} method and pass in the direction value
|
||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#ADJUST_MUTE} or
|
||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#ADJUST_UNMUTE}.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-notifications">Notifications</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
This release removes the {@code Notification.setLatestEventInfo()} method. Use the
|
||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder} class instead to construct notifications. To update a
|
||
notification repeatedly, reuse the {@link android.app.Notification.Builder} instance. Call the
|
||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder#build()} method to get
|
||
updated {@link android.app.Notification} instances.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>The {@code adb shell dumpsys notification} command no longer prints out your notification text.
|
||
Use the {@code adb shell dumpsys notification --noredact} command instead to print out the text
|
||
in a notification object.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-test-selection">Text Selection</h2>
|
||
|
||
<img src="{@docRoot}preview/images/text-selection.gif"
|
||
style="float:right; margin:0 0 20px 30px" width="360" height="640" />
|
||
|
||
<p>When users select text in your app, you can now display text selection actions such as
|
||
<em>Cut</em>, <em>Copy</em>, and <em>Paste</em> in a
|
||
<a href="http://www.google.com/design/spec/patterns/selection.html#selection-text-selection"
|
||
class="external-link">floating toolbar</a>. The user interaction implementation is similar to that
|
||
for the contextual action bar, as described in
|
||
<a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/ui/menus.html#CABforViews">
|
||
Enabling the contextual action mode for individual views</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>To implement a floating toolbar for text selection, make the following changes in your existing
|
||
apps:</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>In your {@link android.view.View} or {@link android.app.Activity} object, change your
|
||
{@link android.view.ActionMode} calls from
|
||
{@code startActionMode(Callback)} to {@code startActionMode(Callback, ActionMode.TYPE_FLOATING)}.</li>
|
||
<li>Take your existing implementation of {@code ActionMode.Callback} and make it extend
|
||
{@link android.view.ActionMode.Callback2} instead.</li>
|
||
<li>Override the
|
||
{@link android.view.ActionMode.Callback2#onGetContentRect(android.view.ActionMode, android.view.View, android.graphics.Rect) onGetContentRect()}
|
||
method to provide the coordinates of the content {@link android.graphics.Rect} object
|
||
(such as a text selection rectangle) in the view.</li>
|
||
<li>If the rectangle positioning is no longer valid, and this is the only element to be invalidated,
|
||
call the {@link android.view.ActionMode#invalidateContentRect() invalidateContentRect()} method.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you are using <a href="{@docRoot}tools/support-library/index.html">
|
||
Android Support Library</a> revision 22.2, be aware that floating toolbars are not
|
||
backward-compatible and appcompat takes control over {@link android.view.ActionMode} objects by
|
||
default. This prevents floating toolbars from being displayed. To enable
|
||
{@link android.view.ActionMode} support in an
|
||
{@link android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity}, call
|
||
{@link android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity#getDelegate()}, then call
|
||
{@link android.support.v7.app.AppCompatDelegate#setHandleNativeActionModesEnabled(boolean)
|
||
setHandleNativeActionModesEnabled()} on the returned
|
||
{@link android.support.v7.app.AppCompatDelegate} object and set the input
|
||
parameter to {@code false}. This call returns control of {@link android.view.ActionMode} objects to
|
||
the framework. In devices running the M Preview, that allows the framework to support
|
||
{@link android.support.v7.app.ActionBar} or floating toolbar modes, while on pre-M Preview devices,
|
||
only the {@link android.support.v7.app.ActionBar} modes are supported.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-keystore">Android Keystore Changes</h2>
|
||
<p>With this preview, the
|
||
<a href="{@docRoot}training/articles/keystore.html">Android Keystore provider</a> no longer supports
|
||
DSA. ECDSA is still supported.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Keys which do not require encryption at rest will no longer be deleted when secure lock screen
|
||
is disabled or reset (for example, by the user or a Device Administrator). Keys which require
|
||
encryption at rest will be deleted during these events.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-network">Wi-Fi and Networking Changes</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>This preview introduces the following behavior changes to the Wi-Fi and networking APIs.</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Your apps can now change the state of {@link android.net.wifi.WifiConfiguration} objects only
|
||
if you created these objects. You are not permitted to modify or delete
|
||
{@link android.net.wifi.WifiConfiguration} objects created by the user or by other apps.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Previously, if an app forced the device to connect to a specific Wi-Fi network by using
|
||
{@link android.net.wifi.WifiManager#enableNetwork(int,boolean) enableNetwork()} with the
|
||
{@code disableAllOthers=true} setting, the device disconnected from other networks such as
|
||
cellular data. In this preview, the device no longer disconnects from such other networks. If
|
||
your app’s {@code targetSdkVersion} is {@code “20”} or lower, it is pinned to the selected
|
||
Wi-Fi network. If your app’s {@code targetSdkVersion} is {@code “21”} or higher, use the
|
||
multinetwork APIs (such as
|
||
{@link android.net.Network#openConnection(java.net.URL) openConnection()},
|
||
{@link android.net.Network#bindSocket(java.net.Socket) bindSocket()}, and the new
|
||
{@link android.net.ConnectivityManager#bindProcessToNetwork(android.net.Network)
|
||
bindProcessToNetwork()} method) to ensure that its network traffic is sent on the selected network.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-camera">Camera Service Changes</h2>
|
||
<p>In this preview, the model for accessing shared resources in the camera service has been changed
|
||
from the previous “first come, first serve” access model to an access model where high-priority
|
||
processes are favored. Changes to the service behavior include:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Access to camera subsystem resources, including opening and configuring a camera device, is
|
||
awarded based on the “priority” of the client application process. Application processes with
|
||
user-visible or foreground activities are generally given a higher-priority, making camera resource
|
||
acquisition and use more dependable.</li>
|
||
<li>Active camera clients for lower priority apps may be “evicted” when a higher priority
|
||
application attempts to use the camera. In the deprecated {@link android.hardware.Camera} API,
|
||
this results in
|
||
{@link android.hardware.Camera.ErrorCallback#onError(int,android.hardware.Camera) onError()} being
|
||
called for the evicted client. In the {@link android.hardware.camera2 Camera2} API, it results in
|
||
{@link android.hardware.camera2.CameraDevice.StateCallback#onDisconnected(android.hardware.camera2.CameraDevice) onDisconnected()}
|
||
being called for the evicted client.</li>
|
||
<li>On devices with appropriate camera hardware, separate application processes are able to
|
||
independently open and use separate camera devices simultaneously. However, multi-process use
|
||
cases, where simultaneous access causes significant degradation of performance or capabilities of
|
||
any of the open camera devices, are now detected and disallowed by the camera service. This change
|
||
may result in “evictions” for lower priority clients even when no other app is directly
|
||
attempting to access the same camera device.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Changing the current user causes active camera clients in apps owned by the previous user account
|
||
to be evicted. Access to the camera is limited to user profiles owned by the current device user.
|
||
In practice, this means that a “Guest” account, for example, will not be able to leave running
|
||
processes that use the camera subsystem when the user has switched to a different account.
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-runtime">Runtime</h2>
|
||
<p>The ART runtime now properly implements access rules for the
|
||
{@link java.lang.reflect.Constructor#newInstance(java.lang.Object...) newInstance()} method. This
|
||
change fixes a problem where Dalvik was checking access rules incorrectly in previous versions.
|
||
If your app uses the
|
||
{@link java.lang.reflect.Constructor#newInstance(java.lang.Object...) newInstance()} method and you
|
||
want to override access checks, call the
|
||
{@link java.lang.reflect.Constructor#setAccessible(boolean) setAccessible()} method with the input
|
||
parameter set to {@code true}. If your app uses the
|
||
<a href="{@docRoot}tools/support-library/features.html#v7-appcompat">v7 appcompat library</a> or the
|
||
<a href="{@docRoot}tools/support-library/features.html#v7-recyclerview">v7 recyclerview library</a>,
|
||
you must update your app to use to the latest versions of these libraries. Otherwise, make sure that
|
||
any custom classes referenced from XML are updated so that their class constructors are accessible.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This preview updates the behavior of the dynamic linker. The dynamic linker now understands the
|
||
difference between a library’s {@code soname} and its path
|
||
(<a href="https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6670" class="external-link">
|
||
public bug 6670</a>), and search by {@code soname} is now
|
||
implemented. Apps which previously worked that have bad {@code DT_NEEDED} entries
|
||
(usually absolute paths on the build machine’s file system) may fail when loaded.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The {@code dlopen(3) RTLD_LOCAL} flag is now correctly implemented. Note that
|
||
{@code RTLD_LOCAL} is the default, so calls to {@code dlopen(3)} that didn’t explicitly use
|
||
{@code RTLD_LOCAL} will be affected (unless your app explicitly used {@code RTLD_GLOBAL}). With
|
||
{@code RTLD_LOCAL}, symbols will not be made available to libraries loaded by later calls to
|
||
{@code dlopen(3)} (as opposed to being referenced by {@code DT_NEEDED} entries).</p>
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-hardware-id">Access to Hardware Identifier</h2>
|
||
<p>To provide users with greater data protection, starting in this release, Android
|
||
removes programmatic access to the device’s local hardware identifier for
|
||
apps using the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth APIs. The
|
||
{@link android.net.wifi.WifiInfo#getMacAddress() WifiInfo.getMacAddress()} and the
|
||
{@link android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter#getAddress() BluetoothAdapter.getAddress()} methods
|
||
now return a constant value of {@code 02:00:00:00:00:00}.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>To access the hardware identifiers of nearby external devices via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi scans,
|
||
your app must now have the following permissions:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>{@link android.net.wifi.WifiManager#getScanResults() WifiManager.getScanResults()}:
|
||
Your app must have {@link android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION} or
|
||
{@link android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION} permission.</li>
|
||
<li>{@link android.bluetooth.BluetoothDevice#ACTION_FOUND BluetoothDevice.ACTION_FOUND}:
|
||
Your app must have {@link android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION} permission.</li>
|
||
<li>{@link android.bluetooth.le.BluetoothLeScanner#startScan(android.bluetooth.le.ScanCallback)
|
||
BluetoothLeScanner.startScan()}: Your app must have
|
||
{@link android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION} or
|
||
{@link android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION} permission.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p class="note"><strong>Note</strong>: When a device running M Developer Preview initiates a
|
||
background Wi-Fi or Bluetooth scan, the operation is visible to external devices as
|
||
originating from a randomized MAC address.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-apk-validation">APK Validation</h2>
|
||
<p>The platform now performs stricter validation of APKs. An APK is considered corrupt if a file is
|
||
declared in the manifest but not present in the APK itself. An APK must be re-signed if any of the
|
||
contents are removed.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-usb">USB Connection</h2>
|
||
<p>Device connections through the USB port are now set to charge-only mode by default. To access
|
||
the device and its content over a USB connection, users must explicitly grant permission for such
|
||
interactions. If your app supports user interactions with the device over a USB port, take into
|
||
consideration that the interaction must be explicitly enabled.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="behavior-afw">Android for Work Changes</h2>
|
||
<p>This preview includes the following behavior changes for Android for Work:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>Work contacts in personal contexts.</strong> The Google Dialer
|
||
Call Log now displays work contacts when the user views past calls.
|
||
Setting
|
||
{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#setCrossProfileCallerIdDisabled(android.content.ComponentName, boolean) setCrossProfileCallerIdDisabled()}
|
||
to {@code true} hides the work profile contacts in the Google Dialer Call Log. Work contacts can be
|
||
displayed along with personal contacts to devices over Bluetooth only if
|
||
you set {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#setBluetoothContactSharingDisabled(android.content.ComponentName, boolean)
|
||
setBluetoothContactSharingDisabled()} to {@code false}. By default, it is set to {@code true}.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Wi-Fi configuration removal:</strong> Wi-Fi configurations added by a Profile Owner
|
||
(for example, through calls to the
|
||
{@link android.net.wifi.WifiManager#addNetwork(android.net.wifi.WifiConfiguration)
|
||
addNetwork()} method) are now removed if that work profile is deleted.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Wi-Fi configuration lockdown:</strong> Any Wi-Fi configuration created by
|
||
an active Device Owner can no longer be modified or deleted by the user if
|
||
{@link android.provider.Settings.Global#WIFI_DEVICE_OWNER_CONFIGS_LOCKDOWN} is non-zero.
|
||
The user can still create and modify their own Wi-Fi configurations. Active Device
|
||
Owners have the privilege of editing or removing any Wi-Fi configurations, including
|
||
those not created by them.

|
||
<li><strong>Download Work Policy Controller via Google account addition:</strong> When a Google
|
||
account that requires management via a Work Policy Controller (WPC) app is added to a device
|
||
outside of a managed context, the add account flow now prompts the user to install the
|
||
appropriate WPC. This behavior also applies to accounts added via
|
||
<strong>Settings > Accounts</strong> and in the initial device setup wizard.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Changes to specific {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager} API behaviors:</strong>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Calling the
|
||
{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#setCameraDisabled(android.content.ComponentName,boolean) setCameraDisabled()}
|
||
method affects the camera for the calling user only; calling it from the managed profile doesn’t
|
||
affect camera apps running on the primary user.</li>
|
||
<li>In addition, the
|
||
{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#setKeyguardDisabledFeatures(android.content.ComponentName,int) setKeyguardDisabledFeatures()}
|
||
method is now available for Profile Owners, as well as to Device Owners. </li>
|
||
<li>A Profile Owner can set these keyguard restrictions:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS} and
|
||
{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT}, which affect the
|
||
keyguard settings for the profile’s parent user.</li>
|
||
<li>{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#KEYGUARD_DISABLE_UNREDACTED_NOTIFICATIONS}, which
|
||
only affects notifications generated by applications in the managed profile.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>The {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#createAndInitializeUser(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, android.content.ComponentName, android.os.Bundle) createAndInitializeUser()} and {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#createUser(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String) createUser()} methods have been deprecated.</li>
|
||
<li>The {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#setScreenCaptureDisabled(android.content.ComponentName, boolean) setScreenCaptureDisabled()}
|
||
method now also blocks the assist structure when an app of the given user is in the foreground. </li>
|
||
<li>{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_SIGNATURE_CHECKSUM}
|
||
now defaults to SHA-256. SHA-1 is still supported for backwards compatibility but will be removed
|
||
in future.
|
||
{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_SIGNATURE_CHECKSUM}
|
||
now only accepts SHA-256.</li>
|
||
<li>Device initializer APIs which existed in the M Developer Preview are now removed.</li>
|
||
<li><code>EXTRA_PROVISIONING_RESET_PROTECTION_PARAMETERS</code> is removed so NFC bump
|
||
provisioning cannot programmatically unlock a factory reset protected device.</li>
|
||
<li>You can now use the {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#EXTRA_PROVISIONING_ADMIN_EXTRAS_BUNDLE}
|
||
extra to pass data to the device owner app during NFC provisioning of the managed device.</li>
|
||
<li>Android for Work APIs are optimized for M runtime permissions, including Work profiles,
|
||
assist layer, and others. New {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager} permission APIs don't
|
||
affect pre-M apps.</li>
|
||
<li>When users back out of the synchronous part of the setup flow initiated through an
|
||
{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE} or
|
||
{@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_DEVICE} intent, the system
|
||
now returns a {@link android.app.Activity#RESULT_CANCELED} result code.</li>
|
||
</ul></li>
|
||
|
||
<li><strong>Changes to other APIs</strong>:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Data Usage: The {@code android.app.usage.NetworkUsageStats} class has been renamed
|
||
{@link android.app.usage.NetworkStats}.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
|
||
<li><strong>Changes to global settings</strong>:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>These settings can no longer be set via {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#setGlobalSetting(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) setGlobalSettings()}</code>:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><code>BLUETOOTH_ON</code></li>
|
||
<li><code>DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS_ENABLED</code></li>
|
||
<li><code>MODE_RINGER</code></li>
|
||
<li><code>NETWORK_PREFERENCE</code></li>
|
||
<li><code>WIFI_ON</code></li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>These global settings can now be set via {@link android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager#setGlobalSetting(android.content.ComponentName, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) setGlobalSettings()}:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>{@link android.provider.Settings.Global#WIFI_DEVICE_OWNER_CONFIGS_LOCKDOWN}</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</ul>
