↳ | android.content.BroadcastReceiver | |
↳ | android.app.admin.DeviceAdminReceiver |
Base class for implementing a device administration component. This class provides a convenience for interpreting the raw intent actions that are sent by the system.
The callback methods, like the base
BroadcastReceiver.onReceive()
method, happen on the main thread of the process. Thus long running
operations must be done on another thread. Note that because a receiver
is done once returning from its receive function, such long-running operations
should probably be done in a
Service
.
When publishing your DeviceAdmin subclass as a receiver, it must
handle
ACTION_DEVICE_ADMIN_ENABLED
and require the
BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN
permission. A typical
manifest entry would look like:
<receiver android:name=".app.DeviceAdminSample$DeviceAdminSampleReceiver" android:label="@string/sample_device_admin" android:description="@string/sample_device_admin_description" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN"> <meta-data android:name="android.app.device_admin" android:resource="@xml/device_admin_sample" /> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.app.action.DEVICE_ADMIN_ENABLED" /> </intent-filter> </receiver>
The meta-data referenced here provides addition information specific
to the device administrator, as parsed by the
DeviceAdminInfo
class.
A typical file would be:
<device-admin xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <uses-policies> <limit-password /> <watch-login /> <reset-password /> <force-lock /> <wipe-data /> <expire-password /> <encrypted-storage /> <disable-camera /> <disable-keyguard-features /> </uses-policies> </device-admin>
For more information about device administration, read the Device Administration developer guide.

Action sent to a device administrator when the user has disabled
it. Upon return, the application no longer has access to the
protected device policy manager APIs. You will generally
handle this in
onDisabled(Context, Intent)
. Note
that this action will be
sent the receiver regardless of whether it is explicitly listed in
its intent filter.
Action sent to a device administrator when the user has requested to
disable it, but before this has actually been done. This gives you
a chance to supply a message to the user about the impact of
disabling your admin, by setting the extra field
EXTRA_DISABLE_WARNING
in the result Intent. If not set,
no warning will be displayed. If set, the given text will be shown
to the user before they disable your admin.
This is the primary action that a device administrator must implement to be
allowed to manage a device. This will be set to the receiver
when the user enables it for administration. You will generally
handle this in
onEnabled(Context, Intent)
. To be
supported, the receiver must also require the
BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN
permission so
that other applications can not abuse it.
Action sent to a device administrator when the user has changed the
password of their device. You can at this point check the characteristics
of the new password with
DevicePolicyManager.isActivePasswordSufficient()
.
You will generally
handle this in
onPasswordChanged(Context, Intent)
.
The calling device admin must have requested
USES_POLICY_LIMIT_PASSWORD
to receive
this broadcast.
Action periodically sent to a device administrator when the device password is expiring.
The calling device admin must have requested
USES_POLICY_EXPIRE_PASSWORD
to receive
this broadcast.
Action sent to a device administrator when the user has failed at
attempted to enter the password. You can at this point check the
number of failed password attempts there have been with
DevicePolicyManager.getCurrentFailedPasswordAttempts()
. You will generally
handle this in
onPasswordFailed(Context, Intent)
.
The calling device admin must have requested
USES_POLICY_WATCH_LOGIN
to receive
this broadcast.
Action sent to a device administrator when the user has successfully entered their password, after failing one or more times.
The calling device admin must have requested
USES_POLICY_WATCH_LOGIN
to receive
this broadcast.
Name under which a DevicePolicy component publishes information about itself. This meta-data must reference an XML resource containing a device-admin tag. XXX TO DO: describe syntax.
A CharSequence that can be shown to the user informing them of the impact of disabling your admin.
Retrieve the DevicePolicyManager interface for this administrator to work with the system.
Retrieve the ComponentName describing who this device administrator is, for
use in
DevicePolicyManager
APIs that require the administrator to
identify itself.
Called when the user has asked to disable the administrator, as a result of
receiving
ACTION_DEVICE_ADMIN_DISABLE_REQUESTED
, giving you
a chance to present a warning message to them. The message is returned
as the result; if null is returned (the default implementation), no
message will be displayed.

Called periodically when the password is about to expire or has expired. It will typically be called at these times: on device boot, once per day before the password expires, and at the time when the password expires.
If the password is not updated by the user, this method will continue to be called once per day until the password is changed or the device admin disables password expiration.
The admin will typically post a notification requesting the user to change their password
in response to this call. The actual password expiration time can be obtained by calling
getPasswordExpiration(ComponentName)
The admin should be sure to take down any notifications it posted in response to this call
when it receives
onPasswordChanged(Context, Intent)
.
