Constants

public static final String ACTION_AUDIO_BECOMING_NOISY

Added in API level 3

Broadcast intent, a hint for applications that audio is about to become 'noisy' due to a change in audio outputs. For example, this intent may be sent when a wired headset is unplugged, or when an A2DP audio sink is disconnected, and the audio system is about to automatically switch audio route to the speaker. Applications that are controlling audio streams may consider pausing, reducing volume or some other action on receipt of this intent so as not to surprise the user with audio from the speaker.

Parameters
on set true to turn on speakerphone; false to turn it off

public void setStreamMute (int streamType, boolean state)

Added in API level 1

Mute or unmute an audio stream.

The mute command is protected against client process death: if a process with an active mute request on a stream dies, this stream will be unmuted automatically.

The mute requests for a given stream are cumulative: the AudioManager can receive several mute requests from one or more clients and the stream will be unmuted only when the same number of unmute requests are received.

For a better user experience, applications MUST unmute a muted stream in onPause() and mute is again in onResume() if appropriate.

This method should only be used by applications that replace the platform-wide management of audio settings or the main telephony application.

Parameters
streamType The stream to be muted/unmuted.
state The required mute state: true for mute ON, false for mute OFF

public void setStreamSolo (int streamType, boolean state)

Added in API level 1

Solo or unsolo a particular stream. All other streams are muted.

The solo command is protected against client process death: if a process with an active solo request on a stream dies, all streams that were muted because of this request will be unmuted automatically.

The solo requests for a given stream are cumulative: the AudioManager can receive several solo requests from one or more clients and the stream will be unsoloed only when the same number of unsolo requests are received.

For a better user experience, applications MUST unsolo a soloed stream in onPause() and solo is again in onResume() if appropriate.

Parameters
streamType The stream to be soloed/unsoloed.
state The required solo state: true for solo ON, false for solo OFF

public void setStreamVolume (int streamType, int index, int flags)

Added in API level 1

flags One or more flags.

public void setVibrateSetting (int vibrateType, int vibrateSetting)

Added in API level 1

This method was deprecated in API level 16.
Applications should maintain their own vibrate policy based on current ringer mode that can be queried via getRingerMode() .

Sets the setting for when the vibrate type should vibrate.

This method should only be used by applications that replace the platform-wide management of audio settings or the main telephony application.

Parameters
vibrateType The type of vibrate. One of VIBRATE_TYPE_NOTIFICATION or VIBRATE_TYPE_RINGER .
vibrateSetting The vibrate setting, one of VIBRATE_SETTING_ON , VIBRATE_SETTING_OFF , or VIBRATE_SETTING_ONLY_SILENT .

public void setWiredHeadsetOn (boolean on)

Added in API level 5

This method was deprecated in API level 5.
Do not use.

Sets audio routing to the wired headset on or off.

Parameters
on set true to route audio to/from wired headset; false disable wired headset audio

public boolean shouldVibrate (int vibrateType)

Added in API level 1

This method was deprecated in API level 16.
Applications should maintain their own vibrate policy based on current ringer mode that can be queried via getRingerMode() .

Returns whether a particular type should vibrate according to user settings and the current ringer mode.

This shouldn't be needed by most clients that use notifications to vibrate. The notification manager will not vibrate if the policy doesn't allow it, so the client should always set a vibrate pattern and let the notification manager control whether or not to actually vibrate.

Parameters
vibrateType The type of vibrate. One of VIBRATE_TYPE_NOTIFICATION or VIBRATE_TYPE_RINGER .
Returns
  • Whether the type should vibrate at the instant this method is called.

public void startBluetoothSco ()

Added in API level 8

Start bluetooth SCO audio connection.

Requires Permission: MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS .

This method can be used by applications wanting to send and received audio to/from a bluetooth SCO headset while the phone is not in call.

As the SCO connection establishment can take several seconds, applications should not rely on the connection to be available when the method returns but instead register to receive the intent ACTION_SCO_AUDIO_STATE_UPDATED and wait for the state to be SCO_AUDIO_STATE_CONNECTED .

As the ACTION_SCO_AUDIO_STATE_UPDATED intent is sticky, the application can check the SCO audio state before calling startBluetoothSco() by reading the intent returned by the receiver registration. If the state is already CONNECTED, no state change will be received via the intent after calling startBluetoothSco(). It is however useful to call startBluetoothSco() so that the connection stays active in case the current initiator stops the connection.

Unless the connection is already active as described above, the state will always transition from DISCONNECTED to CONNECTING and then either to CONNECTED if the connection succeeds or back to DISCONNECTED if the connection fails (e.g no headset is connected).

When finished with the SCO connection or if the establishment fails, the application must call stopBluetoothSco() to clear the request and turn down the bluetooth connection.

Even if a SCO connection is established, the following restrictions apply on audio output streams so that they can be routed to SCO headset:

NOTE: up to and including API version JELLY_BEAN_MR1 , this method initiates a virtual voice call to the bluetooth headset. After API version JELLY_BEAN_MR2 only a raw SCO audio connection is established.

  • the stream type must be STREAM_VOICE_CALL
  • the format must be mono
  • the sampling must be 16kHz or 8kHz

The following restrictions apply on input streams:

  • the format must be mono
  • the sampling must be 8kHz

Note that the phone application always has the priority on the usage of the SCO connection for telephony. If this method is called while the phone is in call it will be ignored. Similarly, if a call is received or sent while an application is using the SCO connection, the connection will be lost for the application and NOT returned automatically when the call ends.

public void stopBluetoothSco ()

Added in API level 8

Stop bluetooth SCO audio connection.

Requires Permission: MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS .

This method must be called by applications having requested the use of bluetooth SCO audio with startBluetoothSco() when finished with the SCO connection or if connection fails.
