Closed 6 years ago.
This is my code:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Intent intent = new Intent("android.location.GPS_ENABLED_CHANGE");
intent.putExtra("enabled", true);
sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
This is the error in logcat:

This is not available as public API, and you cannot change GPS state programmatically from Android 4.4 and above. you have prepare intent and redirect user to settings.
startActivity(context, new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS));
here are some references:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/22529296/3758024
https://stackoverflow.com/a/20236331/3758024

You cannot change the gps state programmaticly since android version 4.4.
Good explanation why: Read this post
What you should so is using intent to send the user to the phoen setting and request him to enable it manually.

and in line number 48, I called a function startForeground(1, new Notification());
If you read carefully in the end of second line
requires android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE
I was also facing the same error in one of my project I resolve it by adding permission in the manifest file. So just simply add foreground permission in the manifest file.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE"></uses-permission>
Hope it's work for you.

How can i On GPS Automatically without asking User?

I've tried this code but It's not working Properly.
Intent intent = new Intent("android.location.GPS_ENABLED_CHANGE");
intent.putExtra("enabled", true);
sendBroadcast(intent, Manifest.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS);
Getting this Error:

This is not possible, for obvious privacy and security reasons.

Android tv OS Device policy manager Activity not found

I'm using Android policy manager and the following code works on Android 5.0.x mobile devices.
Intent deviceAdminIntent = new Intent(DevicePolicyManager.ACTION_ADD_DEVICE_ADMIN);
deviceAdminIntent.putExtra(DevicePolicyManager.EXTRA_DEVICE_ADMIN, cdmDeviceAdmin);
deviceAdminIntent.putExtra(DevicePolicyManager.EXTRA_ADD_EXPLANATION,
getResources().getString(R.string.device_admin_enable_alert));
startActivityForResult(deviceAdminIntent, ACTIVATION_REQUEST);
However, when I deploying the same on Android TV image with the same OS version, it throws the following exception.What could be the issue? Where can I find the source1 for Android TV images?

Package Manager has died, DeadObjectException

We use our app on only one device type and we get this error pretty often on it.
The only instance for PackageManager is a BootupReceiver:
public class RestartHelper extends BroadcastReceiver
{
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Logger.getInstance().Log("Restart received");
Intent i = context.getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage( context.getPackageName() );
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
context.startActivity(i);
}
}

Is this error hardware/system related?
Obviously there has another PackageManger call but not only in RestartHelper.java:
at com.cotris.roosapp.StandardActivity.onCreate(StandardActivity.java:49)
You man need to check the code detail in that.
The android.os.DeadObjectException means that you link to something, that does not exist any more.
the solution for my case was a hardware related problem, which created all kind of crashes of system processes in the background on the device.

Firebase crash is set up perfectly as we are getting reports of the crashes BUT i'm seeing this on Crashlytics and this ultimately leads to crashing the app.
Does anyone know what this problem is?
