I'm developing a tracking application and I need to prevent users from turning off the basic sensors used to determine the location. I can not modify the devices ROM or have root access (or at least it would be very desirable to had not), but I thought of using the Device Administration API to perform these functions through the Profile Owner or Device Owner modes. I'm basically looking for a method to block these functions in Android settings.
I'm unsure about whether this is possible and how to do it, I have not found examples in GitHub for applications that have implemented this. Could anyone give me a light, some example or specific documentation?
I tried to follow these three documentations, without success in finding a solution to this specific feature:
https://source.android.com/devices/tech/admin
https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/admin/device-admin
https://developers.google.com/android/management/introduction
This is an excerpt from what I've been trying:
setUserRestriction(UserManager.DISALLOW_CONFIG_WIFI, true);
setUserRestriction(UserManager.DISALLOW_CONFIG_MOBILE_NETWORKS, active);
setUserRestriction(UserManager.DISALLOW_CONFIG_BLUETOOTH, active);
private void setUserRestriction(String restriction, boolean disallow){
if (disallow) {
mDevicePolicyManager.addUserRestriction(mAdminComponentName, restriction);
} else {
mDevicePolicyManager.clearUserRestriction(mAdminComponentName,
restriction);
}
}
DISALLOW_CONFIG_BLUETOOTH
Added in API level 18
public static final String DISALLOW_CONFIG_BLUETOOTH
Specifies if a user is disallowed from configuring bluetooth. This does not restrict the user from turning bluetooth on or off. The default value is false.
This restriction doesn't prevent the user from using bluetooth. For disallowing usage of bluetooth completely on the device, use DISALLOW_BLUETOOTH.
This restriction has no effect in a managed profile.
Key for user restrictions.
Type: Boolean
You cannot prevent them from turning GPS, WIFI and Bluetooth off. What you can do is have an implementation as below or use this library.
https://github.com/KI-labs/gps-permission-checks-livedata
You can't, obviously for security reasons. If you want to achive something like that you'll probably need to modify the devices ROM. You should create a BroadcastReceiver and keep tracking Internet and Bluetooth connection changes, than you can properly handle it when user disconnect them pausing the service, showing a dialog, finishing the application or whatever you need to do.
It would be pretty weird if an app could have some control of user settings, imagine if you install an app, then suddently you can't disable wi-fi anymore until you unistall it. You can't do that for a good reason
Preventing bluetooth/wifi disconnection will also prevent usage of aircraft mode, that is a security issue bounded in the ROM and not overridable.
As suggested above your option is to monitor for wifi/bluetooth/gps deactivations and prompt the user with an alert.
By the way, GPS is not affected by aircraft mode, as it's a pure receiver and doesn't make active transmissions. In that case GPS will be always active and collecting informations (if active and the phone is not in power save mode, aka relying on wifi location). I suggest you to check if the user activated aircraft mode, in order to be less annoying with your alerts (air mode is mandatory in same situations, and should be considered "legal" by your application, and maybe less critical than an user voluntary disconnection
In simple words, You cannot, but you can listen to when wifi is enabled/connected, and you can prompt a dialog stating the reason.
This way it gives the user a more concise grip on what needs to be done.
Just a suggestion
We are developing a locked down "kiosk-style" Android app on a stock Samsung tablet, which is mounted in customer vehicles. We would like to be able to allow customers to edit their wifi settings, without giving them access to the rest of the Settings app (e.g. Launcher, accounts, etc)
We have been able to launch the Wifi Settings activity, but it allows the user to go into other areas.
I'm not sure whether it's possible to create a custom interface for connecting to wifi, but even if it were possible, this seems fragile and a lot of work for something quite simple.
Is there any way to solve this well?
I would create a device policy controller app that is provisioned on the device as a device owner using Android Enterprise (Android for Work) APIs.
https://developers.google.com/android/work/dpc/build-dpc
As a device owner, you can set your app in lock task mode which is generally used for kiosks.
https://developer.android.com/work/cosu.html
Then, you can set user restrictions:
addUserRestriction api
user restrictions list
The user restrictions don't cover everything in the settings app, but the coverage is pretty good.
Then I would provision it using NFC or QR code reader from the Google Setup Wizard welcome screen.
https://github.com/googlesamples/android-NfcProvisioning
You might want to also look at existing open source EMM/MDM implementations that already exist such as WSO2.

How to enable task locking in Android 5.0 production devices

I was also working on Kiosk Type applications and we have to give options for Change wifi and Display Settings So we have used these commands on Button click for Wifi And Display
Settings
btnWifiSetting.setOnClickListener {
startActivityForResult( Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_WIFI_SETTINGS), 0);
}
And For Display Setting
btnDisplay.setOnClickListener {
startActivityForResult(Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_DISPLAY_SETTINGS),0)
}
And you can also check the full list of Available Commands here
https://ourcodeworld.com/articles/read/318/how-to-open-android-settings-programmatically-with-java
try LineAgeOS
https://lineageos.org/
Your requirement needs to access OS System level, this way you have access and customize the WIFI settings before releasing the phone itself
can you try this way.
WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
if (wifiManager.isWifiEnabled()) {
wifiManager.setWifiEnabled(false);
Tools_WiFi.setImageResource(R.drawable.tool_wifi_off);
} else {
wifiManager.setWifiEnabled(true);
Tools_WiFi.setImageResource(R.drawable.tool_wifi_on);
}
You can try this:
startActivityForResult(new Intent(Settings.ACTION_WIFI_SETTINGS), 0);
Hope it helps you.
I've recently updated my android phone to Marshmallow. Unfortunately for me, that broke my python code.
using PyUSB, I can get the device to enter accessory mode. Unfortunately, I can no longer read/write to the device, as now using set_configuration() resets the connection, causing the device to exit accessory mode and re-enter MTP mode.
dev = list(usb.core.find(find_all=True))[0]
dev.ctrl_transfer(0xc0,51,data_or_wLength=2)
dev.ctrl_transfer(0x40,52,wIndex=0,data_or_wLength='SAMSUNG')
dev.ctrl_transfer(0x40,52,wIndex=1,data_or_wLength='SAMSUNG_Android')
dev.ctrl_transfer(0x40,52,wIndex=2,data_or_wLength='16DIGITSERIALNUM')
dev.ctrl_transfer(0x40,52,wIndex=3,data_or_wLength='AOA')
dev.ctrl_transfer(0x40,52,wIndex=4,data_or_wLength='Whatever')
dev.ctrl_transfer(0x40,52,wIndex=5,data_or_wLength='4')
dev.ctrl_transfer(0x40,53)
time.sleep(5)
dev = list(usb.core.find(find_all=True))[0]
dev.set_configuration() ## Aaaaaand we're back to MTP...
I can't find any way around this; no references to this problem. Only solution I can some up with is to learn C and use libusb directly, assuming the PyUSB module is to blame...
Well, this isn't a good solution, but just in case anyone else just happens to come across this problem and find this:
The problem is with the specific backend (libusb0), which sends a message to reset configuration or something like that if an interface is already claimed. In some devices (mine, for example), this causes a programmatic reset of the connection.
My workaround involves using thelibusb1 backend when re-acquiring the device in accessory mode, since it doesn't cause a reset. But since libusb1 won't let me do control transfers, I need to switch between backends.
from usb.backend import libusb0, libusb1, and then be0,be1 = libusb0.get_backend(),libusb1.get_backend().
Then just specify the backend as a parameter to usb.core.find
I am attempting to get Google Nearby API working on my handset (an s5).
I am building and running the stock project from github Google Nearby API GIT.
The app builds and runs, with no errors. Having exported the app onto two S5s (amongst other handsets I have attempted to test it with) and connecting to a WLAN from a D-Link DSL-3680. Multicasting is enabled and set to v3.
However the app refuses to connect with the neighbouring phone when corresponding 'advertise' and 'discover' instructions have been given.
Is there an effective way in which to debug this behaviour? If I can provide an effective information dump of information that might help someone identify the issue then please let me know how.
What do you mean by 'refuse to connect'?
are you getting connection status- 'Rejected'?
If you are able to advertise and discover other devices, I'm assuming all your base conditions (like connected to local network) are fulfilled
Now,
You can try logging your status in Connection call back when you try to connect
Nearby.Connections.sendConnectionRequest(mGoogleApiClient, myName,
remoteEndpointId, myPayload, new Connections.ConnectionResponseCallback() {//response conditions}
using--
inside connection callback function write
if(status.isSuccess()){
// Successful connection
} else {
// Failed connection
}
similarly, if you are not doing this, you need to accept the connection request
Nearby.Connections.acceptConnectionRequest(mGoogleApiClient, remoteEndpointId, myPayload, this)
and inside Onresult callback add-
if(status.isSuccess()){
// Successful connection
} else {
// Failed connection
}
Hope it helped
I want to be able to discover Android devices on my network and possibly retrieve some device information about them. This is very easy with Apple devices since they run Bonjour services. However, I can't seem to find any similar service running on Android.
This must work without modifying the Android device, installing some service, or opening some port. It's meant to work with vanilla Android devices in the way that Bonjour helps you find vanilla Apple devices. Even being able to just verify that the device is running Android would be sufficient.
Chosen Answer: Although it's not the top rated answer (yet), please take a look at the response by Luis. As he mentions, you can use a DNS lookup (using your local DNS server) to discover Android devices. I have found this to have a 100% success rate, as Android forces devices to use a hostname of android-_____. This is apparently difficult to change on the phone, even if it is rooted. So I think this is a pretty accurate method. Thanks, Luis!
Example:
$ nslookup 192.168.1.104 192.168.1.1
Server: 192.168.1.1
Address: 192.168.1.1#53
104.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa name = android-711c129e251f14cf.\001.
Sample Code: If you wanted to implement this in Java (e.g., to run on Android), you can't easily use getHostName() because it uses the external DNS servers. You want to use the local DNS server on your router, for example. Luis mentions below that you could modify the DNS servers of the Wifi connection, but that could possibly break other things. Instead, I've found the dnsjava library to be extremely helpful to send targeted DNS requests. Here is some sample code using the library:
String ipAddress = "104.1.168.192";
String dnsblDomain = "in-addr.arpa";
Record[] records;
Lookup lookup = new Lookup(ipAddress + "." + dnsblDomain, Type.PTR);
SimpleResolver resolver = new SimpleResolver();
resolver.setAddress(InetAddress.getByName("192.168.1.1"));
lookup.setResolver(resolver);
records = lookup.run();
if(lookup.getResult() == Lookup.SUCCESSFUL) {
for (int i = 0; i < records.length; i++) {
if(records[i] instanceof PTRRecord) {
PTRRecord ptr = (PTRRecord) records[i];
System.out.println("DNS Record: " + records[0].rdataToString());
}
}
} else {
System.out.println("Failed lookup");
}
} catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception: " + e);
}
This gives me the output:
DNS Record: android-711c129e251f14cf.\001.
Bingo.
There is an very simple approach that gave me positive results in few different devices.
When a device connects to your router it receives an IP (i.e. DHCP) and registers a name in DNS. The name that is registered seems to be always in the form android_nnnnnnnn.
Of course, you can name any computer with the same approach and trick the check, resulting in false positives ...
Also, I can't ensure that all device suppliers are following the same approach, but I've found it to work correctly in a few devices from different brands (including different SDK levels) that I've tested.
--EDITED--
How to do it
It depends on where you would be running the code to discover the Android devices. Assuming that you would be running the code in an Android device:
First discover devices responding to ping in your network. You can use the code in my answer to this post: execComd() to run a ping command.
Get the name of responding devices using the code:
InetAddress inetAddress = InetAddress.getByName(string_with_ip_addr);
String name = inetAddress.getCanonicalHostName();
--EDIT 2--
Proof of concept
The method below is just a proof of concept for what I've wrote above.
I'm using isReachable() method to generate the ICMP request, which is said to only work with rooted devices in many posts, which is the case for the device used for testing it. However, I didn't give root permissions for the application running this code, so I believe it couldn't set the SIUD bit, which is the reason why some claim that this method fails. I would like to do it here from the perspective of someone testing it on a non-rooted device.
To call use:
ArrayList<String> hosts = scanSubNet("192.168.1.");
It returns in hosts, a list of names for devices responding to ping request.
private ArrayList<String> scanSubNet(String subnet){
ArrayList<String> hosts = new ArrayList<String>();
InetAddress inetAddress = null;
for(int i=1; i<10; i++){
Log.d(TAG, "Trying: " + subnet + String.valueOf(i));
try {
inetAddress = InetAddress.getByName(subnet + String.valueOf(i));
if(inetAddress.isReachable(1000)){
hosts.add(inetAddress.getHostName());
Log.d(TAG, inetAddress.getHostName());
}
} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return hosts;
}
Regards.
Android is not going to be as easy as iOS. There is no Bonjour equivalent.
Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich, introduced Wi-Fi Direct Peer to Peer networking. At first I hoped it might be able to be scanned in the the way your thinking, but it helps Android devices communicate without an access point, so they're not really "on your network". Besides, ICS runs on only a fraction of Android devices.
Rather than an active netscan approach, you're left with a passive monitoring approach. If your network is secure, sniffing the encrypted packet is possible, but inconvenient. You'll have to
put your network interface into monitor mode
capture the 4-way handshake
decrypt it using the network's pre-shared key
this will give you the key you need to decrypt traffic
If you want to see this in action, Wireshark supports WPA decryption.
Once you're able to view the Wi-Fi traffic, you will notice Android devices tend to communicate with certain Google servers and their HTTP connections have User Agent strings that can be identified.
This is the basis for a workable passive solution.
Tenable Network Security offer products that seem to take this type of approach.
Another Idea
#Michelle Cannon mentioned Libelium's Meshlium Xtreme whose approach will not get you all the way there (not without good up to date MAC address range tables). But it could be part of reaching a lesser goal.
You can:
Detect all wireless devices
Eliminate Apple devices using the MAC's Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI)
Tell it's a mobile device by by monitoring signal strength to determine it's moving (and mobile devices will tend to show up and go away)
You may be able to use the MAC OUI as a hint it's Android
You may be able to use the MAC OUI as a hint it's not Android (but a laptop or wireless card, etc.).
This may be workable if your willing to detect devices that are probably Android.
DHCP Fingerprinting
#Michelle Cannon suggested DHCP fingerprinting. I wasn't sure at first but I have to thank him for suggesting what's looking like the best bet for simple passive scanning. As a cautionary tail, I'd like to explain why I was late to the party.
There are things we know, thinks we don't know, and things we think we know but are wrong.
In a lot of ways, it's good that Android uses the Linux kernel. But it's not good if you want to discover Android devices on your network. Android's TCP/IP stack is Linux's therefor Android devices will look like Linux devices or so I thought at first. But then I realized Linux has a lot of build configuration parameters so there could be something distinctive about Android when seen on a network, but what?
DHCP fingerprinting uses a the exact DHCP options requested by the device plus timing. For this to work you generally need an up to date fingerprint database to match against. At first it looked like fingerbank was crowed sourcing this data, but then I noticed their files hadn't been updated for almost a year. With all the different Android device types, I don't think it's practical to keep updated fingerprints for a single project.
But then I looked at the actual DHCP signatures for Android and I noticed this:
Android 1.0: dhcpvendorcode=dhcpcd 4.0.0-beta9
Android 1.5-2.1: dhcpvendorcode=dhcpcd 4.0.1
Android 2.2: dhcpvendorcode=dhcpcd 4.0.15
Android 3.0: dhcpvendorcode=dhcpcd-5.2.10
Linux normally uses dhclient as their DHCP client, but Android is using dhcpcd. Android has a strong preference for using software licensed with the BSD style where possible and dhcpcd uses a BSD license. It would seem dhcpvendorcode could be used as a strong indicator that a mobile device is running Android.
DHCP monitoring
A client uses DHCP to get an IP address when joining a network so it's starting without an IP address. It gets around this problem by using UDP broadcasts for the initial exchange. On Wi-Fi, even with WPA, broadcast traffic is not encrypted. So you can just listen on UDP port 67 for client to server traffic and 68 for the reverse. You don't even need to put your network interface into promiscuous mode. You can easily monitor this traffic using a protocol analyzer like Wireshark.
I preferred to write code to monitor the traffic and decided to use Python. I selected pydhcplib to handle the details of DHCP. My experience with this library was not smooth. I needed to manually download and place IN.py and TYPES.py support files. And their packet to string conversion was leaving the dhcpvendorcode blank. It did parse the DHCP packets correctly, so I just wrote my own print code.
Here's code that monitors DHCP traffic from client to server:
#!/usr/bin/python
from pydhcplib.dhcp_packet import *
from pydhcplib.dhcp_network import *
from pydhcplib.dhcp_constants import *
netopt = {
'client_listen_port':"68",
'server_listen_port':"67",
'listen_address':"0.0.0.0"
}
class Server(DhcpServer):
def __init__(self, options):
DhcpServer.__init__(
self,options["listen_address"],
options["client_listen_port"],
options["server_listen_port"])
def PrintOptions(self, packet, options=['vendor_class', 'host_name', 'chaddr']):
# uncomment next line to print full details
# print packet.str()
for option in options:
# chaddr is not really and option, it's in the fixed header
if option == 'chaddr':
begin = DhcpFields[option][0]
end = begin+6
opdata = packet.packet_data[begin:end]
hex = ['0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','a','b','c','d','e','f']
print option+':', ':'.join([(hex[i/16]+hex[i%16]) for i in opdata])
else:
opdata = packet.options_data.get(option)
if opdata:
print option+':', ''.join([chr(i) for i in opdata if i != 0])
print
def HandleDhcpDiscover(self, packet):
print "DHCP DISCOVER"
self.PrintOptions(packet)
def HandleDhcpRequest(self, packet):
print "DHCP REQUEST"
self.PrintOptions(packet)
## def HandleDhcpDecline(self, packet):
## self.PrintOptions(packet)
## def HandleDhcpRelease(self, packet):
## self.PrintOptions(packet)
## def HandleDhcpInform(self, packet):
## self.PrintOptions(packet)
server = Server(netopt)
while True :
server.GetNextDhcpPacket()
This code is based on pydhcplib's server example because it listens for client requests, like a server.
When my Nexus 7 Android 4.2 tablet connects, this interesting information is captured (redacted):
DHCP REQUEST
vendor_class: dhcpcd-5.5.6
host_name: android-5c1b97cdffffffff
chaddr: 10:bf:48:ff:ff:ff
DHCP DISCOVER
vendor_class: dhcpcd-5.5.6
host_name: android-5c1b97cdffffffff
chaddr: 10:bf:48:ff:ff:ff
The host name seems to have a fixed format and is easily parsed. If you need the IP address you can monitor the server to client traffic. Note: only the initial exchange, when an new client first shows up without an IP address, is broadcast. Future lease extensions, etc., are not broadcast.
Reverse DNS Lookup
#Luis posted a great solution that demonstrates how simpler is better. Even after seeing Android's DHCP client was setting host_name to android-5c1b97cdffffffff, I didn't think to ask the router for it's list of names using reverse DNS lookups. The router adds the host_name to it's DNS server so you can still access the device if its IP address changes.
The host_name is expected to remain listed in the DNS for the duration of the DHCP lease. You could check if the device is still present by pinging it.
One drawback to depending on host_name is there are ways this could be changed. It's easy for the device manufacturer or carrier to change the host_name (though after searching, I've been unable to find any evidence they ever have). There are apps to change host name, but they require root so that's, at most, an edge case.
Finally there's an open Android Issue 6111: Allow a hostname to be specified that currently has 629 stars. It would not be surprising to see configurable host_name in Android Settings at some point in the future, maybe soon. So if you start depending on host_name to identify Android devices, realize it could be yanked out from under you.
If you're doing live tracking, another potential problem with Reverse DNS Lookup is you have to decide how frequently to scan. (Of course this is not an issue if you're just taking a one-time snapshot.) Frequent scanning consumes network resources, infrequent leaves you with stale data. Here's how adding DHCP monitoring can help:
On startup use Reverse DNS Lookup to find devices
Ping devices to see if they are still active
Monitor DHCP traffic to detect new devices instantly
Occasionally rerun DNS Lookup to find devices you might have missed
If you need to notice devices leaving, ping devices at desired timing resolution
While it's not easy (nor 100% accurate), there are several techniques that make it possible to discover Android devices on your network.
AFAIK, Android system doesn't provide any zeroconf app/service on it's built-in system app/service stack. To enable the auto-discovery on the actual device attached to local network, you need either install some third-party zeroconf app or develop your own app/service and install it on the actual device, some API options are:
JmDNS (for Apple's bonjour protocol)
Cling (for Microsoft's UPnP protocol)
Android NSD API (introduced since Android 4.1)
I am not quite clear about your requirements, if you want something similar (i.e. auto discover and connect) on vanilla Android devices, you can probably use Wi-Fi direct which is now available on some later device running Android 4.0, however, it requires both devices support Wi-Fi Direct and only create an ad-hoc P2P connection with Wi-Fi turned off, much like a bluetooth connection with a longer range:
For Wi-Fi Direct API support, check out official guide - Connecting Devices Wirelessly.
I am looking at this an thinking
http://www.libelium.com/smartphones_iphone_android_detection
pay special note to this
Do the users need to have an specific app installed or interact somehow to be detected?
No, the scan is performed silently, Meshlium just detects the "beacon frames" originated by the Wifi and Bluetooth radios integrated in the Smartphones. Users just need to have at least one of the two wireless interfaces turned on.
Long time ago I use to use an app called stumbler on my mac to find wifi networks, I think this is similar
Other ideas
Well if I need to determine android phones on a local network how would I do it. Absent of a dns service running I only have a couple possibilities
The SSID if its being broadcast - can't tell me anything The ip address - android lets you have a lot of control over host naming so I guess you could define a specific ip range to your android devices. -not to useful.
Alternately lets say I see an unknown device on the network, if bluetooth is turned on then I am broadcasting a bluetooth device signature SDPP that I can use to deduce my device type.
If I were running a service that supported android and I wanted to discover specific android devices on my network, then I could just register the mac addresses for those devices and watch for them on the network.
Other than that you would need to run either a bonjour (dns-sd) or upnpp dameon on the device.
Updated Response
Sorry, I haven't understood the original question correctly. Only your comment made it really clear to me that you do not want to have to install anything on the target devices but you just want a way of discovering random phones in your network.
I'm not sure if this would really be possible in the way you want it. Without having any network discovery service running on Android you will not find the device in first place. Of course you can use some low-level network protocols but that would only give you an indicator that there's something but not what it is (being an Android device, a PC, a whatever else).
The most promising approach would be to check for preinstalled apps that have network functionality of some kind. E.g. Samsung devices have Kies Air (if the user enables it), Motorola are using UPnP for their Media Server and HTC has something own as well, if I remember correctly. However, there's no app that is installed on all Android devices of all vendors and carriers. So you can't rely on solely one of those but would need to check for various different services using their specific protocols and behaviors in order to get additional information about the device. And, of course, the user would have to enable the functionality in order for you to use it.
Old response
An additional alternative to yorkw's list is AllJoyn by Qualcomm. It's an open source cross-platform discovery and peer-to-peer communication framework I've used in the past myself already.
Though Qualcomm is a big sponsor of AllJoyn this does not mean that you need a Qualcomm chipset in your define. In fact AllJoyn works on any chipset including Intel and nVidia. It doesn't require rooted phones or any other modifications to the Android framework and just works "out of the box" using Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth as pairing methods.
I am learning a lot from this topic.
there is also something called dhcp fingerprinting, apparently different devices act differently to the kind of network scans we've been discussing such as those using NMAP a linux scanner. Maps of the behavior from these probes are available on the internet.

Here's a one liner that pings all of the machines on your network (assuming your network is 192.168.1.x) and does a reverse lookup on their names:
for i in {1..255}; do echo ping -t 4 192.168.1.${i} ; done | parallel -j 0 --no-notice 2> /dev/null | awk '/ttl/ { print $4 }' | sort | uniq | sed 's/://' | xargs -n 1 host
Requires GNU parallel to work. You can install that on OSX using "brew install parallel"
From this you can just look at the devices named android-c40a2b8027d663dd.home. or whatever.
You can then trying running nmap -O on a device to see what else you can figure out:
sudo nmap -O android-297e7f9fccaa5b5f.home.
But it's not really that fruitful.
