android-6.0-marshmallow

I've tried to create a Wi-Fi tethering hotspot in Android Marshmallow using the following code. public class WifiAccessManager { private static final String SSID = "1234567890abcdef"; public static boolean setWifiApState(Context context, boolean enabled) { //config = Preconditions.checkNotNull(config); try { WifiManager mWifiManager = (WifiManager) context.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE); if (enabled) { mWifiManager.setWifiEnabled(false); } WifiConfiguration conf = getWifiApConfiguration(); mWifiManager.addNetwork(conf); return (Boolean) mWifiManager.getClass().getMethod(

So in my app i would like to add an option to selectively add a permission (say, direct dial) when the user is on Android M but, at the same time, i would like to have that permission NOT showing as required in API 22 or lower simply because its not essential so i prefer not asking for it during install (so de facto making that feature available on M only). So, i understand the new model of M is that it will allow optional permissions when user is on M and it will make those permissions mandatory when on lower APIs. So is there any known way to just remove those permissions on API lower than

I am trying to get the camera permission from the user before launching my camera activity. onRequestPermissionsResult is never called back after the user presses "Allow" from the permission dialog. Here is my Activity class: public class ImageCaptureActivity extends AppCompatActivity { public static final String TAG = ImageCaptureActivity.class.getSimpleName(); private static final int REQUEST_CAMERA = 0; private static final int REQUEST_CAMERA_PERMISSION = 1; private Point mSize; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView

I want to create Dumpster like app, for this I want notification when user is deleting any file so that I can save it to my app memory. I used File Observer but it is giving notification after file deletion and in marshmallow it does not notify for deletion also. I referred this link for file observer. Somewhere I read it is possible using native programming language (C), but couldn't get any solution. How can I do this? Thanks in advance. I have tried this: @Override public void onEvent(int event, String path) { if (path == null) { return; } //the monitored file or directory was deleted,

I observe new behaviour in Android 6.0 Marshmallow. The touching area of scrollbar is widther than the scrollbar. It is visible on following screenshot. Scrollbar has 20 dp (green area) and touching area is probably 48 dp (blue and green area). I would like to have the touch area above the scrollbar only: I use following: <resources xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <style name="MyTheme.Dark" parent="android:Theme.Black"> <item name="android:fastScrollStyle">@style/Widget.FastScroll</item> <item name="android:scrollbarThumbVertical">@drawable/dark_scrollbar_thumb<

This issue is observed on Samsung devices with Android 6.0 only. It is working fine on all other devices, including non - Samsung devices with android 6.0 and Samsung devices with Android 5.1 and below. Currently we don`t have any Samsung device with Android 6.0 to readily check things on it, but we are arranging it soon. The feature where we are using this : The user long presses on a word from a sentence in a TextView and then user can edit the selected word. We accomplish this by : Making the TextView selectable and adding a LongClickListener. Adding a custom Selection Action Mode CallBack

My app is taking 10-12 sec delay while first load on 5.0+ devices, 4.4 or below devices does not have this problem. I have added a log message in Application class onCreate method but it is also called after 10-12 sec seconds. I have tried multidex enable false, minify enabled true but does not make any difference. I have found one thing, when we clear cache and data from app info activity, then it again delay while loading and my app is taking around 10mb of cache and 5 mb of data which is higher than usual. How to address this problem? I have not find this type of issue on net or

I'm using a Nexus 5 with Android M Preview. My problem that I'm trying to solve is: Network access is disabled, unless your app receives a high priority Google Cloud Messaging tickle. What I'm doing is: I put the phone into Doze mode and then I send a push notification with the priority with value 10 and I'm expecting to have internet access for a brief moments, but this is not working. Should I use other type of notifications? There are any documentation already available? Thanks.
