Answer 1

I have used the same steps for opening device network operator settings. The steps above are quite helpful.

Here is my code.

package com..opensettings;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;

import com.facebook.react.bridge.Callback;
import com.facebook.react.bridge.ReactApplicationContext;
import com.facebook.react.bridge.ReactMethod;
import com.facebook.react.bridge.ReactContextBaseJavaModule;

public class OpenSettingsModule extends ReactContextBaseJavaModule {

  @Override
  public String getName() {
    /**
     * return the string name of the NativeModule which represents this class in JavaScript
     * In JS access this module through React.NativeModules.OpenSettings
     */
    return "OpenSettings";
  }

  @ReactMethod
  public void openNetworkSettings(Callback cb) {
    Activity currentActivity = getCurrentActivity();

    if (currentActivity == null) {
      cb.invoke(false);
      return;
    }

    try {
      currentActivity.startActivity(new Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_SETTINGS));
      cb.invoke(true);
    } catch (Exception e) {
      cb.invoke(e.getMessage());
    }
  }


  /*This is for open location Settings*/
  @ReactMethod
  public void openLocationSettings(Callback cb) {
    Activity currentActivity = getCurrentActivity();

    if (currentActivity == null) {
      cb.invoke(false);
      return;
    }

    try {
      currentActivity.startActivity(new Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_NETWORK_OPERATOR_SETTINGS));
      cb.invoke(true);
    } catch (Exception e) {
      cb.invoke(e.getMessage());
    }
  }

  /* constructor */
  public OpenSettingsModule(ReactApplicationContext reactContext) {
    super(reactContext);
  }
}

All you need to do is just put the constant(like ACTION_NETWORK_OPERATOR_SETTINGS) in above code and create your own function like one which is created above i.e. openNetworkSettings. Other steps 4, 5 and 6 are same.

Here are the list of constants: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.html
