Определение совместимости Android 15

1. Введение

В этом документе перечислены требования, которые необходимо выполнить, чтобы устройства были совместимы с Android 15.

Использование слов «ДОЛЖЕН», «НЕ ДОЛЖЕН», «ТРЕБУЕТСЯ», «ДОЛЖЕН», «НЕ ДОЛЖЕН», «СЛЕДУЕТ», «НЕ ДОЛЖЕН», «РЕКОМЕНДУЕТСЯ», «МОЖЕТ» и «ДОПОЛНИТЕЛЬНО» соответствует IETF. стандарт, определенный в RFC2119 .

В этом документе «разработчик устройства» или «разработчик» — это человек или организация, разрабатывающая аппаратное/программное решение под управлением Android 15. «Реализация устройства» или «реализация» — это разработанное таким образом аппаратное/программное решение.

Чтобы считаться совместимыми с Android 15, реализации устройства ДОЛЖНЫ соответствовать требованиям, представленным в этом определении совместимости, включая любые документы, включенные посредством ссылки.

Если это определение или тесты программного обеспечения, описанные в разделе 10, являются молчаливыми, двусмысленными или неполными, ответственность за обеспечение совместимости с существующими реализациями лежит на разработчике устройства.

По этой причине проект Android с открытым исходным кодом является одновременно эталонной и предпочтительной реализацией Android. Разработчикам устройств НАСТОЯТЕЛЬНО РЕКОМЕНДУЕТСЯ основывать свои реализации в максимально возможной степени на исходном коде, доступном в проекте Android Open Source Project. Хотя некоторые компоненты гипотетически можно заменить альтернативными реализациями, НАСТОЯТЕЛЬНО РЕКОМЕНДУЕТСЯ не следовать этой практике, поскольку прохождение тестов программного обеспечения станет существенно сложнее. Ответственность за обеспечение полной поведенческой совместимости со стандартной реализацией Android, включая набор тестов на совместимость, лежит на разработчике. Наконец, обратите внимание, что некоторые замены и модификации компонентов явно запрещены данным документом.

Многие ресурсы, ссылки на которые приведены в этом документе, прямо или косвенно получены из Android SDK и функционально идентичны информации в документации этого SDK. В любых случаях, когда данное Определение совместимости или Набор тестов совместимости не согласуются с документацией SDK, документация SDK считается авторитетной. Любые технические подробности, представленные в связанных ресурсах в этом документе, считаются частью этого определения совместимости.

1.1 Структура документа

1.1.1. Требования по типу устройства

Раздел 2 содержит все требования, применимые к конкретному типу устройства. Каждый подраздел раздела 2 посвящен определенному типу устройств.

Все остальные требования, которые универсально применимы к любым реализациям устройств Android, перечислены в разделах после раздела 2 . В настоящем документе эти требования называются «Основными требованиями».

• НАСТОЯТЕЛЬНО РЕКОМЕНДУЕМЫЕ требования помечены как [SR], но идентификатор не присвоен.
• Идентификатор состоит из: идентификатора типа устройства – идентификатора состояния – идентификатора требования (например, C-0-1).

Каждый идентификатор определяется следующим образом:

• Идентификатор типа устройства (подробнее см. в разделе 2. Типы устройств )
  • C: Core (требования, применимые ко всем реализациям устройств Android)
  • H: Портативное устройство Android

1.1.3. Идентификатор требования в разделе 2

Идентификаторы требований в разделе 2 состоят из двух частей. Первый соответствует идентификатору раздела, как описано выше. Вторая часть определяет форм-фактор и конкретные требования к форм-фактору.

идентификатор раздела, за которым следует идентификатор требования, описанный выше.

• Идентификатор в разделе 2 состоит из: идентификатора раздела/идентификатора типа устройства – идентификатора состояния – идентификатора требования (например, 7.4.3/A-0-1).

2. Типы устройств

Проект Android с открытым исходным кодом предоставляет программный стек, который можно использовать для различных типов устройств и форм-факторов. Для обеспечения безопасности на устройствах ожидается, что программный стек, включая любую замену ОС или альтернативную реализацию ядра, будет выполняться в безопасной среде, как описано в разделе 9 и других разделах данного CDD. Есть несколько типов устройств, которые имеют относительно более развитую экосистему распространения приложений.

В этом разделе описаны эти типы устройств, а также дополнительные требования и рекомендации, применимые к каждому типу устройств.

Все реализации устройств Android, которые не соответствуют ни одному из описанных типов устройств, ДОЛЖНЫ по-прежнему соответствовать всем требованиям, указанным в других разделах настоящего определения совместимости.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST provide complete implementations, including all documented behaviors, of any documented API exposed by the Android SDK or any API decorated with the "@SystemApi" marker in the upstream Android source code.

• [C-0-2] MUST support/preserve all classes, methods, and associated elements marked by the TestApi annotation (@TestApi).

• [C-0-3] MUST NOT omit any managed APIs, alter API interfaces or signatures, deviate from the documented behavior, or include no-ops, except where specifically allowed by this Compatibility Definition.

• [C-0-4] MUST still keep the APIs present and behave in a reasonable way, even when some hardware features for which Android includes APIs are omitted. See section 7 for specific requirements for this scenario.

• [C-0-5] MUST NOT allow third-party apps to use non-SDK interfaces, which are defined as methods and fields in the Java language packages that are in the boot classpath in AOSP, and that do not form part of the public SDK. This includes APIs decorated with the @hide annotation but not with a @SystemAPI , as described in the SDK documents and private and package-private class members.

• [C-0-6] MUST ship with each and every non-SDK interface on the same restricted lists as provided via the provisional and denylist flags in prebuilts/runtime/appcompat/hiddenapi-flags.csv path for the appropriate API level branch in the AOSP.

• [C-0-7] MUST support the signed config dynamic update mechanism to remove non-SDK interfaces from a restricted list by embedding signed configuration in any APK, using the existing public keys present in AOSP.

  However they:

  • MAY, if a hidden API is absent or implemented differently on the device implementation, move the hidden API into the denylist or omit it from all restricted lists.
  • MAY, if a hidden API does not already exist in the AOSP, add the hidden API to any of the restricted lists.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

3.1.1. Android Extensions

Android supports extending the managed API surface of a particular API level by updating the extension version for that API level. The android.os.ext.SdkExtensions.getExtensionVersion(int apiLevel) API returns the extension version of the provided apiLevel , if there are extensions for that API level.

Android device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST preload the AOSP implementation of both the shared library ExtShared and services ExtServices with versions greater than or equal to the minimum versions allowed per each API level. For example, Android 7.0 device implementations, running API level 24 MUST include at least version 1.

• [C-0-2] MUST only return valid extension version number that have been defined by the AOSP.

• [C-0-3] MUST support all the APIs defined by the extension versions returned by android.os.ext.SdkExtensions.getExtensionVersion(int apiLevel) in the same manner as other managed APIs are supported, following the requirements in section 3.1 .

3.1.2. Android Library

Due to Apache HTTP client deprecation , device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST NOT place the org.apache.http.legacy library in the bootclasspath.
• [C-0-2] MUST add the org.apache.http.legacy library to the application classpath only when the app satisfies one of the following conditions:
  • Targets API level 28 or lower.
  • Declares in its manifest that it needs the library by setting the android:name attribute of <uses-library> to org.apache.http.legacy .

The AOSP implementation meets these requirements.

3.2. Совместимость с программным API

In addition to the managed APIs from section 3.1 , Android also includes a significant runtime-only "soft" API, in the form of such things as intents, permissions, and similar aspects of Android applications that cannot be enforced at application compile time.

3.2.1. Разрешения

• [C-0-1] Device implementers MUST support and enforce all permission constants as documented by the Permission reference page . Note that section 9 lists additional requirements related to the Android security model.

3.2.2. Build Parameters

The Android APIs include a number of constants on the android.os.Build class that are intended to describe the current device.

3.2.3. Intent Compatibility

3.2.3.1. Common Application Intents

Android intents allow application components to request functionality from other Android components. The Android upstream project includes a list of applications which implement several intent patterns to perform common actions.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to preload one or more applications or service components with an intent handler, for all the public intent filter patterns defined by the following application intents listed here and provide fulfillment ie meet with the developer expectation for these common application intents as described in the SDK.

Please refer to Section 2 for mandatory application intents for each device type.

3.2.3.2. Intent Resolution

• [C-0-1] As Android is an extensible platform, device implementations MUST allow each intent pattern referenced in section 3.2.3.1 , except for Settings, to be overridden by third-party applications. The upstream Android open source implementation allows this by default.

• [C-0-2] Device implementers MUST NOT attach special privileges to system applications' use of these intent patterns, or prevent third-party applications from binding to and assuming control of these patterns. This prohibition specifically includes but is not limited to disabling the "Chooser" user interface that allows the user to select between multiple applications that all handle the same intent pattern.

• [C-0-3] Device implementations MUST provide a user interface for users to modify the default activity for intents.

• However, device implementations MAY provide default activities for specific URI patterns (eg http://play.google.com) when the default activity provides a more specific attribute for the data URI. For example, an intent filter pattern specifying the data URI "http://www.android.com" is more specific than the browser's core intent pattern for "http://".

Android also includes a mechanism for third-party apps to declare an authoritative default app linking behavior for certain types of web URI intents. When such authoritative declarations are defined in an app's intent filter patterns, device implementations:

• [C-0-4] MUST attempt to validate any intent filters by performing the validation steps defined in the Digital Asset Links specification as implemented by the Package Manager in the upstream Android Open Source Project.
• [C-0-5] MUST attempt validation of the intent filters during the installation of the application and set all successfully validated URI intent filters as default app handlers for their URIs.
• MAY set specific URI intent filters as default app handlers for their URIs, if they are successfully verified but other candidate URI filters fail verification. If a device implementation does this, it MUST provide the user appropriate per-URI pattern overrides in the settings menu.
• MUST provide the user with per-app App Links controls in Settings as follows:
  • [C-0-6] The user MUST be able to override holistically the default app links behavior for an app to be: always open, always ask, or never open, which must apply to all candidate URI intent filters equally.
  • [C-0-7] The user MUST be able to see a list of the candidate URI intent filters.
  • The device implementation MAY provide the user with the ability to override specific candidate URI intent filters that were successfully verified, on a per-intent filter basis.
  • [C-0-8] The device implementation MUST provide users with the ability to view and override specific candidate URI intent filters if the device implementation lets some candidate URI intent filters succeed verification while some others can fail.

3.2.3.3. Intent Namespaces

• [C-0-1] Device implementations MUST NOT include any Android component that honors any new intent or broadcast intent patterns using an ACTION, CATEGORY, or other key string in the android.* or com.android.* namespace.
• [C-0-2] Device implementers MUST NOT include any Android components that honor any new intent or broadcast intent patterns using an ACTION, CATEGORY, or other key string in a package space belonging to another organization.
• [C-0-3] Device implementers MUST NOT alter or extend any of the intent patterns listed in section 3.2.3.1 .
• Device implementations MAY include intent patterns using namespaces clearly and obviously associated with their own organization. This prohibition is analogous to that specified for Java language classes in section 3.6 .

3.2.3.4. Broadcast Intents

Third-party applications rely on the platform to broadcast certain intents to notify them of changes in the hardware or software environment.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST broadcast the public broadcast intents listed here in response to appropriate system events as described in the SDK documentation. Note that this requirement is not conflicting with section 3.5 as the limitation for background applications are also described in the SDK documentation. Also certain broadcast intents are conditional upon hardware support, if the device supports the necessary hardware they MUST broadcast the intents and provide the behavior inline with SDK documentation.

3.2.3.5. Условные намерения приложения

Android includes settings that provide users an easy way to select their default applications, for example for Home screen or SMS.

Where it makes sense, device implementations MUST provide a similar settings menu and be compatible with the intent filter pattern and API methods described in the SDK documentation as below.

If device implementations report android.software.home_screen , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST honor the android.settings.HOME_SETTINGS intent to show a default app settings menu for Home Screen.

If device implementations report android.hardware.telephony.calling , they:

• [C-2-1] MUST provide a settings menu that will call the android.provider.Telephony.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT intent to show a dialog to change the default SMS application.

• [C-2-2] MUST honor the android.telecom.action.CHANGE_DEFAULT_DIALER intent to show a dialog to allow the user to change the default Phone application.

  • MUST use the user-selected default Phone app's UI for incoming and outgoing calls except for emergency calls, which would use the preinstalled Phone app.

• [C-2-3] MUST honor the android.telecom.action.CHANGE_PHONE_ACCOUNTS intent to provide user affordance to configure the ConnectionServices associated with the PhoneAccounts , as well as a default PhoneAccount that the telecommunications service provider will use to place outgoing calls. The AOSP implementation meets this requirement by including a "Calling Accounts option" menu within the "Calls" settings menu.

• [C-2-4] MUST allow android.telecom.CallRedirectionService for an app that holds the android.app.role.CALL_REDIRECTION role.

• [C-2-5] MUST provide the user affordance to choose an app that holds the android.app.role.CALL_REDIRECTION role.

• [C-2-6] MUST honor the android.intent.action.SENDTO and android.intent.action.VIEW intents and provide an activity to send/display SMS messages.

• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to honor android.intent.action.ANSWER , android.intent.action.CALL , android.intent.action.CALL_BUTTON , android.intent.action.VIEW & android.intent.action.DIAL intents with a preloaded dialer application which can handle these intents and provide fulfillment as described in the SDK.

If device implementations report android.hardware.bluetooth , they:

• [C-5-1] MUST honor the 'android.bluetooth.adapter.action.REQUEST_ENABLE' intent and show a system activity to allow the user to turn on Bluetooth.
• [C-5-2] MUST honor the 'android.bluetooth.adapter.action.REQUEST_DISCOVERABLE' intent and show a system activity that requests discoverable mode.

If device implementations support the DND feature, they:

• [C-6-1] MUST implement an activity that would respond to the intent ACTION_NOTIFICATION_POLICY_ACCESS_SETTINGS , which for implementations with UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL it MUST be an activity where the user can grant or deny the app access to DND policy configurations.

If device implementations allow users to use third-party input methods on the device, they:

• [C-7-1] MUST provide a user-accessible mechanism to add and configure third-party input methods in response to the android.settings.INPUT_METHOD_SETTINGS intent.

If device implementations support third-party accessibility services, they:

• [C-8-1] MUST honor the android.settings.ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS intent to provide a user-accessible mechanism to enable and disable the third-party accessibility services alongside the preloaded accessibility services.

If device implementations include support for Wi-Fi Easy Connect and expose the functionality to third-party apps, they:

• [C-9-1] MUST implement the Settings#ACTION_PROCESS_WIFI_EASY_CONNECT_URI Intent APIs as described in the SDK documentation.

If device implementations provide the data saver mode, they:

• [C-10-1] MUST provide a user interface in the settings, that handles the Settings.ACTION_IGNORE_BACKGROUND_DATA_RESTRICTIONS_SETTINGS intent, allowing users to add applications to or remove applications from the allow list.

If device implementations do not provide the data saver mode, they:

• [C-11-1] MUST have an activity that handles the Settings.ACTION_IGNORE_BACKGROUND_DATA_RESTRICTIONS_SETTINGS intent but MAY implement it as a no-op.

If device implementations declare support for the camera via android.hardware.camera.any , they:

• [C-12-3] MUST handle and MUST only allow preinstalled Android applications to handle the following intents MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE , MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE_SECURE , and MediaStore.ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE as described in the SDK document .

If device implementations report android.software.device_admin , they:

• [C-13-1] MUST honor the intent android.app.action.ADD_DEVICE_ADMIN to invoke a UI to bring the user through adding the device administrator to the system (or allowing them to reject it).

• [C-13-2] MUST honor the intents android.app.action.PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE , android.app.action.SET_NEW_PARENT_PROFILE_PASSWORD , android.app.action.SET_NEW_PASSWORD & android.app.action.START_ENCRYPTION and have an activity to provide fulfillment for these intents as described in SDK here .

If device implementations declare the android.software.autofill feature flag, they:

• [C-14-1] MUST fully implement the AutofillService and AutofillManager APIs and honor the android.settings.REQUEST_SET_AUTOFILL_SERVICE intent to show a default app settings menu to enable and disable autofill and change the default autofill service for the user.

If device implementations include a pre-installed app or wish to allow third-party apps to access the usage statistics, they:

• [C-SR-2] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED provide user-accessible mechanism to grant or revoke access to the usage stats in response to the android.settings.ACTION_USAGE_ACCESS_SETTINGS intent for apps that declare the android.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS permission.

If device implementations intend to disallow any apps, including pre-installed apps, from accessing the usage statistics, they:

• [C-15-1] MUST still have an activity that handles the android.settings.ACTION_USAGE_ACCESS_SETTINGS intent pattern but MUST implement it as a no-op, that is to have an equivalent behavior as when the user is declined for access.

If device implementations surface links to the activities specified by AutofillService_passwordsActivity in Settings or links to user passwords through a similar mechanism, they:

• [C-16-1] MUST surface such links for all installed autofill services.

If device implementations support the VoiceInteractionService and have more than one application using this API installed at a time, they:

• [C-18-1] MUST honor the android.settings.ACTION_VOICE_INPUT_SETTINGS intent to show a default app settings menu for voice input and assist.

If device implementations report the feature android.hardware.audio.output , they:

• [C-SR-3] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to honor android.intent.action.TTS_SERVICE, android.speech.tts.engine.INSTALL_TTS_DATA & android.speech.tts.engine.GET_SAMPLE_TEXT intents have an activity to provide fulfillment for these intents as described in SDK here .

Android includes support for interactive screensavers, previously referred to as Dreams. Screen Savers allow users to interact with applications when a device connected to a power source is idle or docked in a desk dock. Device Implementations:

• SHOULD include support for screen savers and provide a settings option for users to configure screen savers in response to the android.settings.DREAM_SETTINGS intent.

If device implementations report android.hardware.nfc.uicc or android.hardware.nfc.ese , they:

• [C-19-1] MUST implement the NfcAdapter.ACTION_TRANSACTION_DETECTED Intent API (as "EVT_TRANSACTION" defined by the GSM Association technical specification TS.26 - NFC Handset Requirements) .

3.2.4. Activities on secondary/multiple displays

If device implementations allow launching normal Android Activities on more than one display, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST set the android.software.activities_on_secondary_displays feature flag.
• [C-1-2] MUST guarantee API compatibility similar to an activity running on the primary display.
• [C-1-3] MUST land the new activity on the same display as the activity that launched it, when the new activity is launched without specifying a target display via the ActivityOptions.setLaunchDisplayId() API.
• [C-1-4] MUST destroy all activities, when a display with the Display.FLAG_PRIVATE flag is removed.
• [C-1-5] MUST securely hide content on all screens when the device is locked with a secure lock screen, unless the app opts in to show on top of lock screen using Activity#setShowWhenLocked() API.
• SHOULD have android.content.res.Configuration which corresponds to that display in order to be displayed, operate correctly, and maintain compatibility if an activity is launched on secondary display.

If device implementations allow launching normal Android Activities on secondary displays and a secondary display has the android.view.Display.FLAG_PRIVATE flag:

• [C-3-1] Only the owner of that display, system, and activities that are already on that display MUST be able to launch to it. Everyone can launch to a display that has android.view.Display.FLAG_PUBLIC flag.

3.3. Native API Compatibility

Native code compatibility is challenging. For this reason, device implementers are:

• [C-SR-1] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use the implementations of the libraries listed below from the upstream Android Open Source Project.

3.3.1. Application Binary Interfaces

Managed Dalvik bytecode can call into native code provided in the application .apk file as an ELF .so file compiled for the appropriate device hardware architecture. As native code is highly dependent on the underlying processor technology, Android defines a number of Application Binary Interfaces (ABIs) in the Android NDK.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST be compatible with one or more defined Android NDK ABIs .
• [C-0-2] MUST include support for code running in the managed environment to call into native code, using the standard Java Native Interface (JNI) semantics.
• [C-0-3] MUST be source-compatible (ie header-compatible) and binary-compatible (for the ABI) with each required library in the list below.
• [C-0-5] MUST accurately report the native Application Binary Interface (ABI) supported by the device, via the android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_ABIS , android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_32_BIT_ABIS , and android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_64_BIT_ABIS parameters, each a comma separated list of ABIs ordered from the most to the least preferred one.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

• [C-0-7] MUST make all the following libraries, providing native APIs, available to apps that include native code:

  • libaaudio.so (AAudio native audio support)
  • libamidi.so (native MIDI support, if feature android.software.midi is claimed as described in Section 5.9)
  • libandroid.so (native Android activity support)
  • libc (C library)
  • libcamera2ndk.so
  • libdl (dynamic linker)
  • libEGL.so (native OpenGL surface management)
  • libGLESv1_CM.so (OpenGL ES 1.x)
  • libGLESv2.so (OpenGL ES 2.0)
  • libGLESv3.so (OpenGL ES 3.x)
  • libicui18n.so
  • libicuuc.so
  • libjnigraphics.so
  • liblog (Android logging)
  • libmediandk.so (native media APIs support)
  • libm (math library)
  • libneuralnetworks.so (Neural Networks API)
  • libOpenMAXAL.so (OpenMAX AL 1.0.1 support)
  • libOpenSLES.so (OpenSL ES 1.0.1 audio support)
  • libRS.so
  • libstdc++ (Minimal support for C++)
  • libvulkan.so (Vulkan)
  • libz (Zlib compression)
  • JNI interface

• [C-0-8] MUST NOT add or remove the public functions for the native libraries listed above.

• [C-0-9] MUST list additional non-AOSP libraries exposed directly to third-party apps in /vendor/etc/public.libraries.txt .

• [C-0-10] MUST NOT expose any other native libraries, implemented and provided in AOSP as system libraries, to third-party apps targeting API level 24 or higher as they are reserved.

• [C-0-11] MUST export all the OpenGL ES 3.1 and Android Extension Pack function symbols, as defined in the NDK, through the libGLESv3.so library. Note that while all the symbols MUST be present, section 7.1.4.1 describes in more detail the requirements for when the full implementation of each corresponding functions are expected.

• [C-0-12] MUST export function symbols for the core Vulkan 1.1 function symbols, as well as the VK_KHR_surface , VK_KHR_android_surface , VK_KHR_swapchain , VK_KHR_maintenance1 , and VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2 extensions through the libvulkan.so library. Note that while all the symbols MUST be present, section 7.1.4.2 describes in more detail the requirements for when the full implementation of each corresponding functions are expected.

• SHOULD be built using the source code and header files available in the upstream Android Open Source Project.

Note that future releases of Android may introduce support for additional ABIs.

3.3.2. 32-bit ARM Native Code Compatibility

If device implementations report the support of the armeabi ABI, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST also support armeabi-v7a and report its support, as armeabi is only for backwards compatibility with older apps.

If device implementations report the support of the armeabi-v7a ABI, for apps using this ABI, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST include the following lines in /proc/cpuinfo , and SHOULD NOT alter the values on the same device, even when they are read by other ABIs.

  • Features: , followed by a list of any optional ARMv7 CPU features supported by the device.
  • CPU architecture: , followed by an integer describing the device's highest supported ARM architecture (eg, "8" for ARMv8 devices).

• [C-2-2] MUST always keep the following operations available, even in the case where the ABI is implemented on an ARMv8 architecture, either through native CPU support or through software emulation:

  • SWP and SWPB instructions.
  • CP15ISB, CP15DSB, and CP15DMB barrier operations.

• [C-2-3] MUST include support for the Advanced SIMD (aka NEON) extension.

3.4. Web Compatibility

3.4.1. WebView Compatibility

If device implementations provide a complete implementation of the android.webkit.Webview API, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report android.software.webview .
• [C-1-2] MUST use the Chromium Project build from the upstream Android Open Source Project on the Android 15 branch for the implementation of the android.webkit.WebView API.

• [C-1-3] The user agent string reported by the WebView MUST be in this format:

  Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android $(VERSION); [$(MODEL)] [Build/$(BUILD)]; wv) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 $(CHROMIUM_VER) Mobile Safari/537.36

  • The value of the $(VERSION) string MUST be the same as the value for android.os.Build.VERSION.RELEASE.
  • The $(MODEL) string MAY be empty, but if it is not empty it MUST have the same value as android.os.Build.MODEL.
  • "Build/$(BUILD)" MAY be omitted, but if it is present the $(BUILD) string MUST be the same as the value for android.os.Build.ID.
  • The value of the $(CHROMIUM_VER) string MUST be the version of Chromium in the upstream Android Open Source Project.
  • Device implementations MAY omit Mobile in the user agent string.

• The WebView component SHOULD include support for as many HTML5 features as possible and if it supports the feature SHOULD conform to the HTML5 specification .

• [C-1-4] MUST render the provided content or remote URL content in a process that is distinct from the application that instantiates the WebView. Specifically the separate renderer process MUST hold lower privilege, run as a separate user ID, have no access to the app's data directory, have no direct network access, and only have access to the minimum-required system services over Binder. The AOSP implementation of WebView meets this requirement.

Note that if device implementations are 32-bit or declare the feature flag android.hardware.ram.low , they are exempted from C-1-3.

3.4.2. Browser Compatibility

If device implementations include a standalone Browser application for general web browsing, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support each of these APIs associated with HTML5:
  • application cache/offline operation
  • <video> tag
  • геолокация
• [C-1-2] MUST support the HTML5/W3C webstorage API and SHOULD support the HTML5/W3C IndexedDB API . Note that as the web development standards bodies are transitioning to favor IndexedDB over webstorage, IndexedDB is expected to become a required component in a future version of Android.
• MAY ship a custom user agent string in the standalone Browser application.
• SHOULD implement support for as much of HTML5 as possible on the standalone Browser application (whether based on the upstream WebKit Browser application or a third-party replacement).

However, If device implementations do not include a standalone Browser application, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST still support the public intent patterns as described in section 3.2.3.1 .

3.5. API Behavioral Compatibility

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-9] MUST ensure that API behavioral compatibility is applied for all installed apps unless they are restricted as described in Section 3.5.1 .
• [C-0-10] MUST NOT implement the allowlisting approach that ensures API behavioral compatibility only for apps that are selected by device implementers.

The behaviors of each of the API types (managed, soft, native, and web) must be consistent with the preferred implementation of the upstream Android Open Source Project . Some specific areas of compatibility are:

• [C-0-1] Devices MUST NOT change the behavior or semantics of a standard intent.
• [C-0-2] Devices MUST NOT alter the lifecycle or lifecycle semantics of a particular type of system component (such as Service, Activity, ContentProvider, etc.).
• [C-0-3] Devices MUST NOT change the semantics of a standard permission.
• Devices MUST NOT alter the limitations enforced on background applications. More specifically, for background apps:
  • [C-0-4] they MUST stop executing callbacks that are registered by the app to receive outputs from the GnssMeasurement and GnssNavigationMessage .
  • [C-0-5] they MUST rate-limit the frequency of updates that are provided to the app through the LocationManager API class or the WifiManager.startScan() method.
  • [C-0-6] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST NOT allow to register broadcast receivers for the implicit broadcasts of standard Android intents in the app's manifest, unless the broadcast intent requires a "signature" or "signatureOrSystem" protectionLevel permission or are on the exemption list .
  • [C-0-7] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST stop the app's background services, just as if the app had called the services' stopSelf() method, unless the app is placed on a temporary allowlist to handle a task that's visible to the user.
  • [C-0-8] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST release the wakelocks the app holds.
• [C-0-11] Devices MUST return the following security providers as the first seven array values from the Security.getProviders() method, in the given order and with the given names (as returned by Provider.getName() ) and classes, unless the app has modified the list via insertProviderAt() or removeProvider() . Devices MAY return additional providers after the specified list of providers below.
  1. AndroidNSSP - android.security.net.config.NetworkSecurityConfigProvider
  2. AndroidOpenSSL - com.android.org.conscrypt.OpenSSLProvider
  3. CertPathProvider - sun.security.provider.CertPathProvider
  4. AndroidKeyStoreBCWorkaround - android.security.keystore.AndroidKeyStoreBCWorkaroundProvider
  5. BC - com.android.org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider
  6. HarmonyJSSE - com.android.org.conscrypt.JSSEProvider
  7. AndroidKeyStore - android.security.keystore.AndroidKeyStoreProvider

The above list is not comprehensive. The Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) tests significant portions of the platform for behavioral compatibility, but not all. It is the responsibility of the implementer to ensure behavioral compatibility with the Android Open Source Project. For this reason, device implementers SHOULD use the source code available via the Android Open Source Project where possible, rather than re-implement significant parts of the system.

3.5.1. Application Restriction

If device implementations implement a proprietary mechanism to restrict apps (eg changing or restricting API behaviors that are described in the SDK) and that mechanism is more restrictive than the Restricted App Standby Bucket , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST allow the user to see the list of restricted apps.
• [C-1-2] MUST provide user affordance to turn on / off all of these proprietary restrictions on each app.

• [C-1-3] MUST not automatically apply these proprietary restrictions without evidence of poor system health behavior, but MAY apply the restrictions on apps upon detection of poor system health behavior like stuck wakelocks, long running services, and other criteria. The criteria MAY be determined by device implementers but MUST be related to the app's impact on the system health. Other criteria that are not purely related to the system health, such as the app's lack of popularity in the market, MUST NOT be used as criteria.

• [C-1-4] MUST not automatically apply these proprietary restrictions for apps when a user has turned off app restrictions manually, and MAY suggest the user to apply these proprietary restrictions.

• [C-1-5] MUST inform users if these proprietary restrictions are applied to an app automatically. Such information MUST be provided in the 24-hour period preceding the application of these proprietary restrictions.

• [C-1-6] MUST return true for the ActivityManager.isBackgroundRestricted() method for any API calls from an app.

• [C-1-7] MUST NOT restrict the top foreground app that is explicitly used by the user.

• [C-1-8] MUST suspend these proprietary restrictions on an app whenever a user starts to explicitly use the app, making it the top foreground application.

• [C-1-10] MUST provide a public and clear document or website that describes how proprietary restrictions are applied. This document or website MUST be linkable from the Android SDK documents and MUST include:

  • Triggering conditions for proprietary restrictions.
  • What and how an app can be restricted.
  • How an app can be exempted from such restrictions.
  • How an app can request an exemption from proprietary restrictions, if they support such an exemption for apps the user can install.

If an app is pre-installed on the device and has never been explicitly used by a user for more than 30 days, [C-1-3] [C-1-5] are exempted.

If device implementations extend the app restrictions that are implemented in AOSP, they:

• [C-2-1]MUST follow the implementation described in this document .

3.5.2. Application Hibernation

If device implementations include App Hibernation that is included in AOSP or extends the feature that is included in AOSP, then they:

• [C-1-1] MUST meet all the requirements in section 3.5.1 except for [C-1-6] and [C-1-3].
• [C-1-2] MUST only apply the restriction on the app for a user when there is evidence that the user has not used the app for some period of time. This duration is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be one month or longer. Usage MUST be defined by either explicit user interaction via the UsageStats#getLastTimeVisible() API or anything that would cause an app to leave the force-stopped state, including service bindings, content provider bindings, explicit broadcasts, etc., which will be tracked by a new API UsageStats#getLastTimeAnyComponentUsed().
• [C-1-3] MUST only apply restrictions affecting all device users when there is evidence that the package has not been used by ANY user for some period of time. This duration is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be one month or longer.
• [C-1-4] MUST NOT render the app unable to respond to activity intents, service bindings, content provider requests, or explicit broadcasts.

App Hibernation in AOSP meets the above requirements.

3.6. API Namespaces

Android follows the package and class namespace conventions defined by the Java programming language. To ensure compatibility with third-party applications, device implementers MUST NOT make any prohibited modifications (see below) to these package namespaces:

• java.*
• javax.*
• sun.*
• android.*
• androidx.*
• com.android.*

That is, they:

• [C-0-1] MUST NOT modify the publicly exposed APIs on the Android platform by changing any method or class signatures, or by removing classes or class fields.
• [C-0-2] MUST NOT add any publicly exposed elements (such as classes or interfaces, or fields or methods to existing classes or interfaces) or Test or System APIs to the APIs in the above namespaces. A "publicly exposed element" is any construct that is not decorated with the "@hide" marker as used in the upstream Android source code.

Device implementers MAY modify the underlying implementation of the APIs, but such modifications:

• [C-0-3] MUST NOT impact the stated behavior and Java-language signature of any publicly exposed APIs.
• [C-0-4] MUST NOT be advertised or otherwise exposed to developers.

However, device implementers MAY add custom APIs outside the standard Android namespace, but the custom APIs:

• [C-0-5] MUST NOT be in a namespace owned by or referring to another organization. For instance, device implementers MUST NOT add APIs to the com.google.* or similar namespace: only Google may do so. Similarly, Google MUST NOT add APIs to other companies' namespaces.
• [C-0-6] MUST be packaged in an Android shared library so that only apps that explicitly use them (via the <uses-library> mechanism) are affected by the increased memory usage of such APIs.

Device implementers MAY add custom APIs in native languages, outside of the NDK APIs, but the custom APIs:

• [C-1-1] MUST NOT be in a NDK library or a library owned by another organization as described here .

If a device implementer proposes to improve one of the package namespaces above (such as by adding useful new functionality to an existing API, or adding a new API), the implementer SHOULD visit source.android.com and begin the process for contributing changes and code, according to the information on that site.

Note that the restrictions above correspond to standard conventions for naming APIs in the Java programming language; this section simply aims to reinforce those conventions and make them binding through inclusion in this Compatibility Definition.

3.7. Runtime Compatibility

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST support the full Dalvik Executable (DEX) format and Dalvik bytecode specification and semantics .

• [C-0-2] MUST configure Dalvik runtimes to allocate memory in accordance with the upstream Android platform, and as specified by the following table. (See section 7.1.1 for screen size and screen density definitions.)

• SHOULD use Android RunTime (ART), the reference upstream implementation of the Dalvik Executable Format, and the reference implementation's package management system.

• SHOULD run fuzz tests under various modes of execution and target architectures to assure the stability of the runtime. Refer to JFuzz and DexFuzz in the Android Open Source Project website.

Note that memory values specified below are considered minimum values and device implementations MAY allocate more memory per application.

3.8. Совместимость пользовательского интерфейса

3.8.1. Launcher (Home Screen)

Android includes a launcher application (home screen) and support for third-party applications to replace the device launcher (home screen).

If device implementations allow third-party applications to replace the device home screen, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare the platform feature android.software.home_screen .
• [C-1-2] MUST return the AdaptiveIconDrawable object when the third-party application use <adaptive-icon> tag to provide their icon, and the PackageManager methods to retrieve icons are called.

If device implementations include a default launcher that supports in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST report true for ShortcutManager.isRequestPinShortcutSupported() .
• [C-2-2] MUST have user affordance asking the user before adding a shortcut requested by apps via the ShortcutManager.requestPinShortcut() API method.
• [C-2-3] MUST support pinned shortcuts and dynamic and static shortcuts as documented on the App Shortcuts page .

Conversely, if device implementations do not support in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST report false for ShortcutManager.isRequestPinShortcutSupported() .

If device implementations implement a default launcher that provides quick access to the additional shortcuts provided by third-party apps through the ShortcutManager API, they:

• [C-4-1] MUST support all documented shortcut features (eg static and dynamic shortcuts, pinning shortcuts) and fully implement the APIs of the ShortcutManager API class.

If device implementations include a default launcher app that shows badges for the app icons, they:

• [C-5-1] MUST respect the NotificationChannel.setShowBadge() API method. In other words, show a visual affordance associated with the app icon if the value is set as true , and do not show any app icon badging scheme when all of the app's notification channels have set the value as false .
• MAY override the app icon badges with their proprietary badging scheme when third-party applications indicate support of the proprietary badging scheme through the use of proprietary APIs, but SHOULD use the resources and values provided through the notification badges APIs described in the SDK , such as the Notification.Builder.setNumber() and the Notification.Builder.setBadgeIconType() API.

If device implementations support monochrome icons, these icons:

• [C-6-1] MUST be used only when a user explicitly enables them (eg via Settings or wallpaper picker menu).

3.8.2. Виджеты

Android supports third-party app widgets by defining a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that allows applications to expose an "AppWidget" to the end user.

If device implementations support third-party app widgets, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare support for platform feature android.software.app_widgets .
• [C-1-2] MUST include built-in support for AppWidgets and expose user interface affordances to add, configure, view, and remove AppWidgets
• [C-1-3] MUST be capable of rendering widgets that are 4 x 4 in the standard grid size. See the App Widget DesignGuidelines in the Android SDK documentation for details.
• MAY support application widgets on the lock screen.

If device implementations support third-party app widgets and in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST report true for AppWidgetManager.html.isRequestPinAppWidgetSupported() .
• [C-2-2] MUST have user affordance asking the user before adding a shortcut requested by apps via the AppWidgetManager.requestPinAppWidget() API method.

3.8.3. Уведомления

Android includes Notification and NotificationManager APIs that allow third-party app developers to notify users of notable events and attract users' attention using the hardware components (eg sound, vibration and light) and software features (eg notification shade, system bar) of the device .

3.8.3.1. Presentation of Notifications

If device implementations allow third-party apps to notify users of notable events , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support notifications that use hardware features, as described in the SDK documentation, and to the extent possible with the device implementation hardware. For instance, if a device implementation includes a vibrator, it MUST correctly implement the vibration APIs. If a device implementation lacks hardware, the corresponding APIs MUST be implemented as no-ops. This behavior is further detailed in section 7 .
• [C-1-2] MUST correctly render all resources (icons, animation files, etc.) provided for in the APIs, or in the Status/System Bar icon style guide , although they MAY provide an alternative user experience for notifications than that provided by the reference Android Open Source implementation.
• [C-1-3] MUST honor and implement properly the behaviors described for the APIs to update, remove and group notifications.
• [C-1-4] MUST provide the full behavior of the NotificationChannel API documented in the SDK.
• [C-1-5] MUST provide a user affordance to block and modify a certain third-party app's notification per each channel and app package level.
• [C-1-6] MUST also provide a user affordance to display deleted notification channels.

• [C-1-7] MUST correctly render all resources (images, stickers, icons, etc.) provided through Notification.MessagingStyle alongside the notification text without additional user interaction. For example, MUST show all resources including icons provided through android.app.Person in a group conversation that is set through setGroupConversation .

• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide an affordance for the user to control the notifications that are exposed to apps that have been granted the Notification Listener permission. The granularity MUST be so that the user can control for each such notification listener what notification types are bridged to this listener. The types MUST include "conversations", "alerting", "silent", and "important ongoing" notifications.

• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED provide an affordance for users to specify apps to exclude from notifying any specific notification listener.

• [C-SR-3] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to automatically surface a user affordance to block a certain third-party app's notification per each channel and app package level after the user dismisses that notification multiple times.

• SHOULD support rich notifications.

• SHOULD present some higher priority notifications as heads-up notifications.

• SHOULD have a user affordance to snooze notifications.

• MAY only manage the visibility and timing of when third-party apps can notify users of notable events to mitigate safety issues such as driver distraction.

Android 11 introduces support for conversation notifications, which are notifications that use MessagingStyle and provides a published People Shortcut ID.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-SR-4] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to group and display conversation notifications ahead of non conversation notifications with the exception of ongoing foreground service notifications and importance:high notifications.

If device implementations support conversation notifications and the app provides the required data for bubbles , they:

• [C-SR-5] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to display this conversation as a bubble. The AOSP implementation meets these requirements with the default System UI, Settings, and Launcher.

If device implementations support rich notifications, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST use the exact resources as provided through the Notification.Style API class and its subclasses for the presented resource elements.
• SHOULD present each and every resource element (eg icon, title and summary text) defined in the Notification.Style API class and its subclasses.

Heads up notifications are notifications that are presented to the user as they come in independently of the surface the user is on. If device implementations support heads-up notifications, then they:

• [C-3-1] MUST use the heads-up notification view and resources as described in the Notification.Builder API class when heads-up notifications are presented.
• [C-3-2] MUST display the actions provided through Notification.Builder.addAction() together with the notification content without additional user interaction as described in the SDK .

3.8.3.2. Notification Listener Service

Android includes the NotificationListenerService APIs that allow apps (once explicitly enabled by the user) to receive a copy of all notifications as they are posted or updated.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST correctly and promptly update notifications in their entirety to all such installed and user-enabled listener services, including any and all metadata attached to the Notification object.
• [C-0-2] MUST respect the snoozeNotification() API call, and dismiss the notification and make a callback after the snooze duration that is set in the API call.

If device implementations have a user affordance to snooze notifications, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST reflect the snoozed notification status properly through the standard APIs such as NotificationListenerService.getSnoozedNotifications() .
• [C-1-2] MUST make this user affordance available to snooze notifications from each installed third-party app's, unless they are from persistent/foreground services.

3.8.3.3. DND (Do not Disturb) / Priority Mode

If device implementations support the DND feature (also called Priority Mode), they:

• [C-1-1] MUST, for when the device implementation has provided a means for the user to grant or deny third-party apps to access the DND policy configuration, display Automatic DND rules created by applications alongside the user-created and predefined правила.
• [C-1-3] MUST honor the suppressedVisualEffects values passed along the NotificationManager.Policy and if an app has set any of the SUPPRESSED_EFFECT_SCREEN_OFF or SUPPRESSED_EFFECT_SCREEN_ON flags, it SHOULD indicate to the user that the visual effects are suppressed in the DND settings menu.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

3.8.3.4. Sensitive Notification Protection

3.8.4. Assist APIs

Android includes the Assist APIs to allow applications to elect how much information of the current context is shared with the assistant on the device.

If device implementations support the Assist action, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST indicate clearly to the end user when the context is shared, by either:
  • Each time the assist app accesses the context, displaying a white light around the edges of the screen that meet or exceed the duration and brightness of the Android Open Source Project implementation.
  • For the preinstalled assist app, providing a user affordance less than two navigations away from the default voice input and assistant app settings menu , and only sharing the context when the assist app is explicitly invoked by the user through a hotword or assist navigation key input.
• [C-2-2] The designated interaction to launch the assist app as described in section 7.2.3 MUST launch the user-selected assist app, in other words the app that implements VoiceInteractionService , or an activity handling the ACTION_ASSIST intent.

3.8.5. Alerts and Toasts

Applications can use the Toast API to display short non-modal strings to the end user that disappear after a brief period of time, and use the TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY window type API to display alert windows as an overlay over other apps.

If device implementations include a screen or video output, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST provide a user affordance to block an app from displaying alert windows that use the TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY . The AOSP implementation meets this requirement by having controls in the notification shade.

• [C-1-2] MUST honor the Toast API and display Toasts from applications to end users in some highly visible manner.

3.8.6. Темы

Android provides "themes" as a mechanism for applications to apply styles across an entire Activity or application.

Android includes a "Holo" and "Material" theme family as a set of defined styles for application developers to use if they want to match the Holo theme look and feel as defined by the Android SDK.

If device implementations include a screen or video output, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST NOT alter any of the Holo theme attributes exposed to applications.
• [C-1-2] MUST support the "Material" theme family and MUST NOT alter any of the Material theme attributes or their assets exposed to applications.

• [C-1-3] MUST either set the "sans-serif" font family to Roboto version 2.x for the languages that Roboto supports, or provide a user affordance to change the font used for the "sans-serif" font family to Roboto version 2.x for the languages that Roboto supports.

• [C-1-4] MUST generate dynamic color tonal palettes as specified in the AOSP documentation of Settings.THEME_CUSTOMIZATION_OVERLAY_PACKAGES (see android.theme.customization.system_palette and android.theme.customization.theme_style ).

• [C-1-5] MUST generate dynamic color tonal palettes using color theme styles enumerated in the Settings.THEME_CUSTOMIZATION_OVERLAY_PACKAGES documentation (see android.theme.customization.theme_styles ), namely TONAL_SPOT , VIBRANT , EXPRESSIVE , SPRITZ , RAINBOW , FRUIT_SALAD , and MONOCHROMATIC .

  "Source color" used to generate dynamic color tonal palettes when sent with android.theme.customization.system_palette (as documented in Settings.THEME_CUSTOMIZATION_OVERLAY_PACKAGES ).

• [C-1-6] MUST have a CAM16 chroma value of 5 or larger.

  • SHOULD be derived from the wallpaper via com.android.systemui.monet.ColorScheme#getSeedColors , which provides multiple valid source colors to pick one from.

  • SHOULD use the value 0xFF1B6EF3 , if none of the provided colors meet the above source color requirement.

Android also includes a "Device Default" theme family as a set of defined styles for application developers to use if they want to match the look and feel of the device theme as defined by the device implementer.

• Device implementations MAY modify the Device Default theme attributes exposed to applications.

Android supports a variant theme with translucent system bars, which allows application developers to fill the area behind the status and navigation bar with their app content. To enable a consistent developer experience in this configuration, it is important the status bar icon style is maintained across different device implementations.

If device implementations include a system status bar, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST use white for system status icons (such as signal strength and battery level) and notifications issued by the system, unless the icon is indicating a problematic status or an app requests a light status bar using the WindowInsetsController#APPEARANCE_LIGHT_STATUS_BARS flag.
• [C-2-2] Android device implementations MUST change the color of the system status icons to black (for details, refer to R.style ) when an app requests a light status bar.

3.8.7. Live Wallpapers

Android defines a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that allows applications to expose one or more "Live Wallpapers" to the end user. Live wallpapers are animations, patterns, or similar images with limited input capabilities that display as a wallpaper, behind other applications.

Hardware is considered capable of reliably running live wallpapers if it can run all live wallpapers, with no limitations on functionality, at a reasonable frame rate with no adverse effects on other applications. If limitations in the hardware cause wallpapers and/or applications to crash, malfunction, consume excessive CPU or battery power, or run at unacceptably low frame rates, the hardware is considered incapable of running live wallpaper. As an example, some live wallpapers may use an OpenGL 2.0 or 3.x context to render their content. Live wallpaper will not run reliably on hardware that does not support multiple OpenGL contexts because the live wallpaper use of an OpenGL context may conflict with other applications that also use an OpenGL context.

• Device implementations capable of running live wallpapers reliably as described above SHOULD implement live wallpapers.

If device implementations implement live wallpapers, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report the platform feature flag android.software.live_wallpaper.

3.8.8. Переключение активности

The upstream Android source code includes the overview screen , a system-level user interface for task switching and displaying recently accessed activities and tasks using a thumbnail image of the application's graphical state at the moment the user last left the application.

Device implementations including the recents function navigation key as detailed in section 7.2.3 MAY alter the interface.

If device implementations including the recents function navigation key as detailed in section 7.2.3 alter the interface, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support at least up to 7 displayed activities.
• SHOULD at least display the title of 4 activities at a time.
• SHOULD display highlight color, icon, screen title in recents.
• SHOULD display a closing affordance ("x") but MAY delay this until user interacts with screens.
• SHOULD implement a shortcut to switch easily to the previous activity.
• SHOULD trigger the fast-switch action between the two most recently used apps, when the recents function key is tapped twice.
• SHOULD trigger the split-screen multiwindow-mode, if supported, when the recents functions key is long pressed.
• MAY display affiliated recents as a group that moves together.
• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use the upstream Android user interface (or a similar thumbnail-based interface) for the overview screen.

3.8.9. Input Management

Android includes support for Input Management and support for third-party input method editors.

If device implementations allow users to use third-party input methods on the device, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare the platform feature android.software.input_methods and support IME APIs as defined in the Android SDK documentation.

3.8.10. Lock Screen Media Control

The Remote Control Client API is deprecated from Android 5.0 in favor of the Media Notification Template that allows media applications to integrate with playback controls that are displayed on the lock screen.

3.8.11. Screen savers (previously Dreams)

See section 3.2.3.5 for settings intent to congfigure screen savers.

3.8.12. Расположение

If device implementations include a hardware sensor (eg GPS) that is capable of providing the location coordinates, they

• [C-1-2] MUST display the current status of location in the Location menu within Settings.
• [C-1-3] MUST NOT display location modes in the Location menu within Settings.

3.8.13. Unicode and Font

Android includes support for the emoji characters defined in Unicode 10.0 .

If device implementations include a screen or video output, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST be capable of rendering these emoji characters in color glyph.
• [C-1-2] MUST include support for:
  • Roboto 2 font with different weights—sans-serif-thin, sans-serif-light, sans-serif-medium, sans-serif-black, sans-serif-condensed, sans-serif-condensed-light for the languages available on the устройство.
  • Full Unicode 7.0 coverage of Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic, including the Latin Extended A, B, C, and D ranges, and all glyphs in the currency symbols block of Unicode 7.0.
• [C-1-3] MUST NOT remove or modify NotoColorEmoji.tff in the system image. (It is acceptable to add a new emoji font to override emoji in NotoColorEmoji.tff)
• SHOULD support the skin tone and diverse family emoji as specified in the Unicode Technical Report #51 .

If device implementations include an IME, they:

• SHOULD provide an input method to the user for these emoji characters.

Android includes support to render Myanmar fonts. Myanmar has several non-Unicode compliant fonts, commonly known as "Zawgyi," for rendering Myanmar languages.

If device implementations include support for Burmese, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST render text with Unicode compliant font as default; non-Unicode compliant font MUST NOT be set as default font unless the user chooses it in the language picker.
• [C-2-2] MUST support a Unicode font and a non-Unicode compliant font if a non-Unicode compliant font is supported on the device. Non-Unicode compliant font MUST NOT remove or overwrite the Unicode font.
• [C-2-3] MUST render text with non-Unicode compliant font ONLY IF a language code with script code Qaag is specified (eg my-Qaag). No other ISO language or region codes (whether assigned, unassigned, or reserved) can be used to refer to non-Unicode compliant font for Myanmar. App developers and web page authors can specify my-Qaag as the designated language code as they would for any other language.

3.8.14. Мультиокна

If device implementations have the capability to display multiple activities at the same time, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST implement such multi-window mode(s) in accordance with the application behaviors and APIs described in the Android SDK multi-window mode support documentation and meet the following requirements:
• [C-1-2] MUST honor android:resizeableActivity that is set by an app in the AndroidManifest.xml file as described in this SDK .
• [C-1-3] MUST NOT offer split-screen or freeform mode if the screen height is less than 440 dp and the screen width is less than 440 dp.
• [C-1-4] An activity MUST NOT be resized to a size smaller than 220dp in multi-window modes other than Picture-in-Picture.
• Device implementations with screen size xlarge SHOULD support freeform mode.

If device implementations support multi-window mode(s), and the split screen mode, they:

• [C-2-2] MUST crop the docked activity of a split-screen multi-window but SHOULD show some content of it, if the Launcher app is the focused window.
• [C-2-3] MUST honor the declared AndroidManifestLayout_minWidth and AndroidManifestLayout_minHeight values of the third-party launcher application and not override these values in the course of showing some content of the docked activity.

If device implementations support multi-window mode(s) and Picture-in-Picture multi-window mode, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST launch activities in picture-in-picture multi-window mode when the app is: * Targeting API level 26 or higher and declares android:supportsPictureInPicture * Targeting API level 25 or lower and declares both android:resizeableActivity and android:supportsPictureInPicture .
• [C-3-2] MUST expose the actions in their SystemUI as specified by the current PIP activity through the setActions() API.
• [C-3-3] MUST support aspect ratios greater than or equal to 1:2.39 and less than or equal to 2.39:1, as specified by the PIP activity through the setAspectRatio() API.
• [C-3-4] MUST use KeyEvent.KEYCODE_WINDOW to control the PIP window; if PIP mode is not implemented, the key MUST be available to the foreground activity.
• [C-3-5] MUST provide a user affordance to block an app from displaying in PIP mode; the AOSP implementation meets this requirement by having controls in the notification shade.

• [C-3-6] MUST allocate the following minimum width and height for the PIP window when an application does not declare any value for AndroidManifestLayout_minWidth and AndroidManifestLayout_minHeight :

  • Devices with the Configuration.uiMode that is set other than UI_MODE_TYPE_TELEVISION MUST allocate a minimum width and height of 108 dp.
  • Devices with the Configuration.uiMode that is set to UI_MODE_TYPE_TELEVISION MUST allocate a minimum width of 240 dp and a minimum height of 135 dp.

3.8.15. Display Cutout

Android supports a Display Cutout as described in the SDK document. The DisplayCutout API defines an area on the edge of the display that may not be functional for an application due to a display cutout or curved display on the edge(s).

If device implementations include display cutout(s), they:

• [C-1-5] MUST NOT have cutout(s) if the device's aspect ratio is 1.0(1:1).
• [C-1-2] MUST NOT have more than one cutout per edge.
• [C-1-3] MUST honor the display cutout flags set by the app through the WindowManager.LayoutParams API as described in the SDK.
• [C-1-4] MUST report correct values for all cutout metrics defined in the DisplayCutout API.

3.8.16. Элементы управления устройством

Android includes ControlsProviderService and Control APIs to allow third-party applications to publish device controls for quick status and action for users.

See Section 2_2_3 for device-specific requirements.

3.8.17. Буфер обмена

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST NOT send clipboard data to any component, activity, service, or across any network connection, without explicit user action (eg, pressing a button on the overlay) or indication of content being sent, except for services mentioned in 9.8.6 Content Capture and App Search .

If device implementations generate a user-visible preview when content is copied to the clipboard for any ClipData item where ClipData.getDescription().getExtras() contains android.content.extra.IS_SENSITIVE , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST redact the user visible preview

The AOSP reference implementation satisfies these clipboard requirements.

• [C-1-5] FLAC
• [C-1-6] MP3
• [C-1-7] MIDI
• [C-1-8] Vorbis
• [C-1-9] PCM/WAVE including high-resolution audio formats up to 24 bits, 192 kHz sample rate, and 8 channels. Note that this requirement is for decoding only, and that a device is permitted to downsample and downmix during the playback phase.
• [C-1-10] Opus

If device implementations support the decoding of AAC input buffers of multichannel streams (ie more than two channels) to PCM through the default AAC audio decoder in the android.media.MediaCodec API, the following MUST be supported:

• [C-2-1] Decoding MUST be performed without downmixing (eg a 5.0 AAC stream must be decoded to five channels of PCM, a 5.1 AAC stream must be decoded to six channels of PCM).
• [C-2-2] Dynamic range metadata MUST be as defined in "Dynamic Range Control (DRC)" in ISO/IEC 14496-3, and the android.media.MediaFormat DRC keys to configure the dynamic range-related behaviors of the audio decoder. The AAC DRC keys were introduced in API 21, and are: KEY_AAC_DRC_ATTENUATION_FACTOR , KEY_AAC_DRC_BOOST_FACTOR , KEY_AAC_DRC_HEAVY_COMPRESSION , KEY_AAC_DRC_TARGET_REFERENCE_LEVEL and KEY_AAC_ENCODED_TARGET_LEVEL .
• [C-SR-1] It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that requirements C-2-1 and C-2-2 above are satisfied by all AAC audio decoders.

If ISO/IEC 23003-4 is supported and if both ISO/IEC 23003-4 and ISO/IEC 14496-3 metadata are present in a decoded bitstream, then:

• ISO/IEC 23003-4 metadata SHALL take precedence.

All audio decoders MUST support outputting:

• [C-6-1] PCM 16-bit native byte order audio frames via the android.media.MediaCodec API.

If device implementations support the decoding of AAC input buffers of multichannel streams (ie more than two channels) to PCM through the default AAC audio decoder in the android.media.MediaCodec API, then the following MUST be supported:

• [C-7-1] MUST be able to be configured by the application using the decoding with the key KEY_MAX_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_COUNT to control whether the content is downmixed to stereo (when using a value of 2) or is output using the native number of channels (when using a value equal or greater to that number). For instance a value of 6 or greater would configure a decoder to output 6 channels when fed 5.1 content.
• [C-7-2] When decoding, the decoder MUST advertise the channel mask being used on the output format with the KEY_CHANNEL_MASK key, using the android.media.AudioFormat constants (example: CHANNEL_OUT_5POINT1 ).

If device implementations support audio decoders other than the default AAC audio decoder and are capable of outputting multi-channel audio (ie more than 2 channels) when fed compressed multi-channel content, then:

• [C-SR-2] The decoder is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be able to be configured by the application using the decoding with the key KEY_MAX_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_COUNT to control whether the content is downmixed to stereo (when using a value of 2) or is output using the native number of channels (when using a value equal or greater to that number). For instance a value of 6 or greater would configure a decoder to output 6 channels when fed 5.1 content.
• [C-SR-3] When decoding, the decoder is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to advertise the channel mask being used on the output format with the KEY_CHANNEL_MASK key, using the android.media.AudioFormat constants (example: CHANNEL_OUT_5POINT1 ).

Audio latency is the time delay as an audio signal passes through a system. Many classes of applications rely on short latencies, to achieve real-time sound effects.

For the purposes of this section, use the following definitions:

• output latency . The interval between when an application writes a frame of PCM-coded data and when the corresponding sound is presented to the environment at an on-device transducer or the signal leaves the device via a port and can be observed externally.
• cold output latency . The time between starting an output stream and the presentation time of the first frame based on timestamps, when the audio output system has been idle and powered down prior to the request.
• continuous output latency . The output latency for subsequent frames, after the device is playing audio.
• input latency . The interval between when a sound is presented by environment to device at an on-device transducer or signal enters the device via a port and when an application reads the corresponding frame of PCM-coded data.
• lost input . The initial portion of an input signal that is unusable or unavailable.
• cold input latency . The time between starting the stream and when the first valid frame is received, when the audio input system has been idle and powered down prior to the request.
• continuous input latency . The input latency for subsequent frames, while the device is capturing audio.
• continuous round-trip latency . The sum of continuous input latency plus continuous output latency plus one buffer period. The buffer period allows time for the app to process the signal and time for the app to mitigate phase difference between input and output streams.
• OpenSL ES PCM buffer queue API . The set of PCM-related OpenSL ES APIs within Android NDK .
• AAudio native audio API . The set of AAudio APIs within Android NDK .
• Timestamp . A pair consisting of a relative frame position within a stream and the estimated time when that frame enters or leaves the audio processing pipeline on the associated endpoint. See also AudioTimestamp .
• glitch . A temporary interruption or incorrect sample value in the audio signal, typically caused by a buffer underrun for output, buffer overrun for input, or any other source of digital or analog noise.
• mean absolute deviation (MAD) . The average of the absolute value of the deviations from the mean for a set of values.

Android includes support for recording of unprocessed audio via the android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource.UNPROCESSED audio source. In OpenSL ES, it can be accessed with the record preset SL_ANDROID_RECORDING_PRESET_UNPROCESSED .

If device implementations intent to support unprocessed audio source and make it available to third-party apps, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report the support through the android.media.AudioManager property PROPERTY_SUPPORT_AUDIO_SOURCE_UNPROCESSED .

• [C-1-2] MUST exhibit approximately flat amplitude-versus-frequency characteristics in the mid-frequency range: specifically ±10 dB from 100 Hz to 7000 Hz for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.

• [C-1-3] MUST exhibit amplitude levels in the low frequency range: specifically from ±20 dB from 5 z to 100 Hz compared to the mid-frequency range for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.

• [C-1-4] MUST exhibit amplitude levels in the high frequency range: specifically from ±30 dB from 7000 Hz to 22 KHz compared to the mid-frequency range for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.

• [C-1-5] MUST set audio input sensitivity such that a 1000 Hz sinusoidal tone source played at 94 dB Sound Pressure Level (SPL) yields a response with RMS of 520 for 16 bit-samples (or -36 dB Full Scale for floating point/double precision samples) for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.

• [C-1-6] MUST have a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at 60 dB or higher for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source. (whereas the SNR is measured as the difference between 94 dB SPL and equivalent SPL of self noise, A-weighted).

• [C-1-7] MUST have a total harmonic distortion (THD) less than be less than 1% for 1 kHZ at 90 dB SPL input level at each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.

• [C-1-8] MUST not have any other signal processing (eg Automatic Gain Control, High Pass Filter, or Echo cancellation) in the path other than a level multiplier to bring the level to desired range. Другими словами:

  • [C-1-9] If any signal processing is present in the architecture for any reason, it MUST be disabled and effectively introduce zero delay or extra latency to the signal path.
  • [C-1-10] The level multiplier, while allowed to be on the path, MUST NOT introduce delay or latency to the signal path.

All SPL measurements are made directly next to the microphone under test. For multiple microphone configurations, these requirements apply to each microphone.

If device implementations declare android.hardware.microphone but do not support unprocessed audio source, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST return null for the AudioManager.getProperty(PROPERTY_SUPPORT_AUDIO_SOURCE_UNPROCESSED) API method, to properly indicate the lack of support.
• [C-SR-1] are still STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to satisfy as many of the requirements for the signal path for the unprocessed recording source.

Pixel Format

If a video decoder advertises support for COLOR_FormatYUVP010, then:

• [C-1-1] MUST support the P010 format for CPU-read (ImageReader, MediaImage, ByteBuffer). In Android 13, P010 is relaxed to allow arbitrary stride for the Y and UV planes.

• [C-1-2] The P010 output buffer MUST be able to be sampled by the GPU (when allocated with GPU_SAMPLING usage). This enables GPU composition and custom tone mapping by apps.

If a video decoder advertises support for COLOR_Format32bitABGR2101010, it:

• [C-2-1] MUST support the RGBA_1010102 format for output surface and CPU-readable (ByteBuffer output).

If a video encoder advertises support for COLOR_FormatYUVP010, it:

• [C-3-1] MUST support the P010 format for input surface and CPU-writeable (ImageWriter, MediaImage, ByteBuffer) input.

If a video encoder advertises support for COLOR_Format32bitABGR2101010, it:

HDR Capture Requirements

For all video encoders that support HDR profiles, device implementations:

• [C-5-1] MUST NOT assume that the HDR metadata is precise. For example, the encoded frame could have pixels beyond the peak luminance level, or the histogram might not be representative of the frame.

• SHOULD aggregate HDR dynamic metadata to generate appropriate HDR static metadata for encoded streams, and they should output it at the end of each encoding session.

If device implementations support HDR capture using the CamcorderProfile APIs then they:

• [C-6-1] MUST support HDR capture through the Camera2 APIs as well.

• [C-6-2] MUST support at least one hardware-accelerated video encoder for each HDR technology supported.

• [C-6-3] MUST support (at the minimum) HLG capture.

• [C-6-4] MUST support writing the HDR metadata (if applicable to the HDR technology) into the captured video file. For AV1, HEVC, and DolbyVision this means including the metadata into the encoded bitstream.

• [C-6-5] MUST support P010 and COLOR_FormatYUVP010.

• [C-6-6] MUST support HDR to SDR tone mapping in the default hardware-accelerated decoder for the captured profile. In other words, if a device can capture HDR10+ HEVC, the default HEVC decoder MUST be able to decode the captured stream in SDR.

HDR Editing Requirements

If device implementations include video encoders that support HDR editing, then they:

• SHOULD use minimal latency for generating the HDR metadata when not present, and SHOULD gracefully handle situations where the metadata is present for some frames and not for others. This metadata SHOULD be precise (for example, represent the actual peak luminance and histogram of the frame).

If device implementation includes codecs that support FEATURE_HdrEditing , then those codecs:

• [C-7-1] MUST support at least one HDR profile.

• [C-7-2] MUST support FEATURE_HdrEditing for all HDR profiles advertised by that codec. In other words, they MUST support generating HDR metadata when not present for all HDR profiles supported that use HDR metadata.

• [C-7-3] MUST support the following video encoder input formats that fully preserve the HDR decoded signal:

  • RGBA_1010102 (already in the target transfer curve) for both input surface and ByteBuffer and MUST advertise support for COLOR_Format32bitABGR2101010.

If device implementation includes codecs that support FEATURE_HdrEditing, then the device:

• [C-7-4] MUST advertise support for EXT_YUV_target OpenGL extension.

Android includes support for developers to configure application development-related settings.

Device implementations MUST provide a consistent experience for Developer Options, they:

• [C-0-1] MUST honor the android.settings.APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS intent to show application development-related settings. The upstream Android implementation hides the Developer Options menu by default and enables users to launch Developer Options after pressing seven (7) times on the Settings > About Device > Build Number menu item.
• [C-0-2] MUST hide Developer Options by default.
• [C-0-3] MUST provide a clear mechanism that does not give preferential treatment to one third-party app as opposed to another to enable Developer Options. MUST provide a public visible document or website that describes how to enable Developer Options. This document or website MUST be linkable from the Android SDK documents.
• SHOULD have an ongoing visual notification to the user when Developer Options is enabled and the safety of the user is of concern.
• MAY temporarily limit access to the Developer Options menu, by visually hiding or disabling the menu, to prevent distraction for scenarios where the safety of the user is of concern.

7. Hardware Compatibility

If a device includes a particular hardware component that has a corresponding API for third-party developers:

• [C-0-1] The device implementation MUST implement that API as described in the Android SDK documentation.

If an API in the SDK interacts with a hardware component that is stated to be optional and the device implementation does not possess that component:

• [C-0-2] Complete class definitions (as documented by the SDK) for the component APIs MUST still be presented.
• [C-0-3] The API's behaviors MUST be implemented as no-ops in some reasonable fashion.
• [C-0-4] API methods MUST return null values where permitted by the SDK documentation.
• [C-0-5] API methods MUST return no-op implementations of classes where null values are not permitted by the SDK documentation.
• [C-0-6] API methods MUST NOT throw exceptions not documented by the SDK documentation.
• [C-0-7] Device implementations MUST consistently report accurate hardware configuration information via the getSystemAvailableFeatures() and hasSystemFeature(String) methods on the android.content.pm.PackageManager class for the same build fingerprint.

The upstream Android open source implementation includes a selection mechanism suitable for use with devices that lack non-touch navigation inputs.

7.2.3. Навигационные клавиши

The Home , Recents , and Back functions typically provided via an interaction with a dedicated physical button or a distinct portion of the touch screen, are essential to the Android navigation paradigm and therefore, device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST provide a user affordance to launch installed applications that have an activity with the <intent-filter> set with ACTION=MAIN and CATEGORY=LAUNCHER or CATEGORY=LEANBACK_LAUNCHER for Television device implementations. The Home function SHOULD be the mechanism for this user affordance.
• SHOULD provide buttons for the Recents and Back function.

If the Home, Recents, or Back functions are provided, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST be accessible with a single action (eg tap, double-click or gesture) when any of them are accessible.
• [C-1-2] MUST provide a clear indication of which single action would trigger each function. Having a visible icon imprinted on the button, showing a software icon on the navigation bar portion of the screen, or walking the user through a guided step-by-step demo flow during the out-of-box setup experience are examples of such an индикация.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-SR-1] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to not provide the input mechanism for the Menu function as it is deprecated in favor of action bar since Android 4.0.

• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide all navigation functions as cancellable. 'Cancellable' is defined as the user's ability to prevent the navigation function from executing (eg going home, going back, etc.) if the swipe is not released past a certain threshold.

If device implementations provide the Menu function, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST display the action overflow button whenever the action overflow menu popup is not empty and the action bar is visible.
• [C-2-2] MUST NOT modify the position of the action overflow popup displayed by selecting the overflow button in the action bar, but MAY render the action overflow popup at a modified position on the screen when it is displayed by selecting the Menu функция.

If device implementations do not provide the Menu function, for backwards compatibility, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST make the Menu function available to applications when targetSdkVersion is less than 10, either by a physical button, a software key, or gestures. This Menu function should be accessible unless hidden together with other navigation functions.

If device implementations provide the Assist function , they:

• [C-4-1] MUST make the Assist function accessible with a single action (eg tap, double-click or gesture) when other navigation keys are accessible.
• [C-SR-3] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use long press on HOME function as this designated interaction.

If device implementations use a distinct portion of the screen to display the navigation keys, they:

• [C-5-1] Navigation keys MUST use a distinct portion of the screen, not available to applications, and MUST NOT obscure or otherwise interfere with the portion of the screen available to applications.
• [C-5-2] MUST make available a portion of the display to applications that meets the requirements defined in section 7.1.1 .
• [C-5-3] MUST honor the flags set by the app through the View.setSystemUiVisibility() API method, so that this distinct portion of the screen (aka the navigation bar) is properly hidden away as documented in the SDK.

If the navigation function is provided as an on-screen, gesture-based action:

• [C-6-1] WindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets() MUST only be used to report the Home gesture recognition area.
• [C-6-2] Gestures that start within an exclusion rect as provided by the foreground application via View#setSystemGestureExclusionRects() , but outside of WindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets() , MUST NOT be intercepted for the navigation function as long as the exclusion rect is allowed within the max exclusion limit as specified in the documentation for View#setSystemGestureExclusionRects() .
• [C-6-3] MUST send the foreground app a MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL event once touches start being intercepted for a system gesture, if the foreground app was previously sent an MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN event.
• [C-6-4] MUST provide a user affordance to switch to an on-screen, button-based navigation (for example, in Settings).
• SHOULD provide Home function as a swipe up from the bottom edge of the current orientation of the screen.
• SHOULD provide Recents function as a swipe up and hold before release, from the same area as the Home gesture.
• Gestures that start within WindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets() SHOULD NOT be affected by exclusion rects provided by the foreground application via View#setSystemGestureExclusionRects() .

If a navigation function is provided from anywhere on the left and right edges of the current orientation of the screen:

• [C-7-1] The navigation function MUST be Back and provided as a swipe from both left and right edges of the current orientation of the screen.
• [C-7-2] If custom swipeable system panels are provided on the left or right edges, they MUST be placed within the top 1/3rd of the screen with a clear, persistent visual indication that dragging in would invoke the aforementioned panels, and hence not Back. A system panel MAY be configured by a user such that it lands below the top 1/3rd of the screen edge(s) but the system panel MUST NOT use longer than 1/3rd of the edge(s).
• [C-7-3] When the foreground app has either the View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE, View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY, WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_DEFAULT, or WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE flags set, swiping from the edges MUST behave as implemented in AOSP, which is documented in the SDK .
• [C-7-4] When the foreground app has either the View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE, View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY, WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_DEFAULT, or WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE flags set, custom swipeable system panels MUST be hidden until the user brings in or un-dims the system bars (aka navigation and status bar) as implemented in AOSP.

If the back navigation function is provided and the user cancels the Back gesture, then:

• [C-8-1] OnBackInvokedCallback.onBackCancelled() MUST be called.
• [C-8-2] OnBackInvokedCallback.onBackInvoked() MUST NOT be called.
• [C-8-3] KEYCODE_BACK event MUST NOT be dispatched.

If the back navigation function is provided but the foreground application does NOT have an OnBackInvokedCallback registered, then:

• The system SHOULD provide an animation for the foreground application that suggests that the user is going back, as provided in AOSP.

If device implementations provide support for the system API setNavBarMode to allow any system app with android.permission.STATUS_BAR permission to set the navigation bar mode, then they:

• [C-9-1] MUST provide support for kid-friendly icons or button-based navigation as provided in the AOSP code.

7.2.4. Touchscreen Input

Android includes support for a variety of pointer input systems, such as touchscreens, touch pads, and fake touch input devices. Touchscreen-based device implementations are associated with a display such that the user has the impression of directly manipulating items on screen. Since the user is directly touching the screen, the system does not require any additional affordances to indicate the objects being manipulated.

Реализации устройства:

• SHOULD have a pointer input system of some kind (either mouse-like or touch).
• SHOULD support fully independently tracked pointers.

If device implementations include a touchscreen (single-touch or better) on a primary Android-compatible display, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report TOUCHSCREEN_FINGER for the Configuration.touchscreen API field.
• [C-1-2] MUST report the android.hardware.touchscreen and android.hardware.faketouch feature flags.

If device implementations include a touchscreen that can track more than a single touch on a primary Android-compatible display, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST report the appropriate feature flags android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch , android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct , android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.jazzhand corresponding to the type of the specific touchscreen on the устройство.

If device implementations rely on an external input device such as mouse or trackball (ie not directly touching the screen) for input on a primary Android-compatible display and meet the fake touch requirements in section 7.2.5 , they:

• [C-3-1] MUST NOT report any feature flag starting with android.hardware.touchscreen .
• [C-3-2] MUST report only android.hardware.faketouch .
• [C-3-3] MUST report TOUCHSCREEN_NOTOUCH for the Configuration.touchscreen API field.

7.2.5. Fake Touch Input

Fake touch interface provides a user input system that approximates a subset of touchscreen capabilities. For example, a mouse or remote control that drives an on-screen cursor approximates touch, but requires the user to first point or focus then click. Numerous input devices like the mouse, trackpad, gyro-based air mouse, gyro-pointer, joystick, and multi-touch trackpad can support fake touch interactions. Android includes the feature constant android.hardware.faketouch, which corresponds to a high-fidelity non-touch (pointer-based) input device such as a mouse or trackpad that can adequately emulate touch-based input (including basic gesture support), and indicates that the device supports an emulated subset of touchscreen functionality.

If device implementations do not include a touchscreen but include another pointer input system which they want to make available, they:

• SHOULD declare support for the android.hardware.faketouch feature flag.

If device implementations declare support for android.hardware.faketouch , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report the absolute X and Y screen positions of the pointer location and display a visual pointer on the screen.
• [C-1-2] MUST report touch event with the action code that specifies the state change that occurs on the pointer going down or up on the screen .
• [C-1-3] MUST support pointer down and up on an object on the screen, which allows users to emulate tap on an object on the screen.
• [C-1-4] MUST support pointer down, pointer up, pointer down then pointer up in the same place on an object on the screen within a time threshold, which allows users to emulate double tap on an object on the screen.
• [C-1-5] MUST support pointer down on an arbitrary point on the screen, pointer move to any other arbitrary point on the screen, followed by a pointer up, which allows users to emulate a touch drag.
• [C-1-6] MUST support pointer down then allow users to quickly move the object to a different position on the screen and then pointer up on the screen, which allows users to fling an object on the screen.

If device implementations declare support for android.hardware.faketouch.multitouch.distinct , they:

• [C-2-1] MUST declare support for android.hardware.faketouch .
• [C-2-2] MUST support distinct tracking of two or more independent pointer inputs.

If device implementations declare support for android.hardware.faketouch.multitouch.jazzhand , they:

• [C-3-1] MUST declare support for android.hardware.faketouch .
• [C-3-2] MUST support distinct tracking of 5 (tracking a hand of fingers) or more pointer inputs fully independently.

7.2.6. Game Controller Support

7.2.6.1. Button Mappings

• [C-0-1] MUST accurately report the presence or absence of sensors per the android.content.pm.PackageManager class.
• [C-0-2] MUST return an accurate list of supported sensors via the SensorManager.getSensorList() and similar methods.
• [C-0-3] MUST behave reasonably for all other sensor APIs (for example, by returning true or false as appropriate when applications attempt to register listeners, not calling sensor listeners when the corresponding sensors are not present; etc.).

If device implementations include a particular sensor type that has a corresponding API for third-party developers, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST report all sensor measurements using the relevant International System of Units (metric) values for each sensor type as defined in the Android SDK documentation.
• [C-1-2] MUST report sensor data with a maximum latency of 100 milliseconds + 2 * sample_time for the case of a sensor stream with a maximum requested latency of 0 ms when the application processor is active. This delay does not include any filtering delays.
• [C-1-3] MUST report the first sensor sample within 400 milliseconds + 2 * sample_time of the sensor being activated. It is acceptable for this sample to have an accuracy of 0.
• [C-1-4] For any API indicated by the Android SDK documentation to be a continuous sensor , device implementations MUST continuously provide periodic data samples that SHOULD have a jitter below 3%, where jitter is defined as the standard deviation of the difference of the reported timestamp values between consecutive events.
• [C-1-5] MUST ensure that the sensor event stream MUST NOT prevent the device CPU from entering a suspend state or waking up from a suspend state.
• [C-1-6] MUST report the event time in nanoseconds as defined in the Android SDK documentation, representing the time the event happened and synchronized with the SystemClock.elapsedRealtimeNano() clock.

• When several sensors are activated, the power consumption SHOULD NOT exceed the sum of the individual sensor's reported power consumption.

The list above is not comprehensive; the documented behavior of the Android SDK and the Android Open Source Documentations on sensors is to be considered authoritative.

If device implementations include a particular sensor type that has a corresponding API for third-party developers, they:

• [C-1-6] MUST set a non-zero resolution for all sensors, and report the value via the Sensor.getResolution() API method.

Some sensor types are composite, meaning they can be derived from data provided by one or more other sensors. (Examples include the orientation sensor and the linear acceleration sensor.)

Реализации устройства:

• SHOULD implement these sensor types, when they include the prerequisite physical sensors as described in sensor types .

If device implementations include a composite sensor, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST implement the sensor as described in the Android Open Source documentation on composite sensors .

If device implementations include a particular sensor type that has a corresponding API for third-party developers and the sensor only reports one value, then device implementations:

• [C-3-1] MUST set the resolution to 1 for the sensor and report the value via the Sensor.getResolution() API method.

If device implementations include a particular sensor type which supports SensorAdditionalInfo#TYPE_VEC3_CALIBRATION and the sensor is exposed to third-party developers, they:

If device implementations include a combination of 3-axis accelerometer, a 3-axis gyroscope sensor, or a magnetometer sensor, they are:

• [C-SR-2] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to ensure the accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer have a fixed relative position, such that if the device is transformable (eg foldable), the sensor axes remain aligned and consistent with the sensor coordinate system throughout all possible device transformation states.

Biometric sensors can be classified as Class 3 (formerly Strong ), Class 2 (formerly Weak ), or Class 1 (formerly Convenience ) based on their spoof and imposter acceptance rates, and on the security of the biometric pipeline. This classification determines the capabilities the biometric sensor has to interface with the platform and with third-party applications. Sensors need to meet additional requirements as detailed below if they wish to be classified as either Class 1 , Class 2 or Class 3 . Both Class 2 and Class 3 biometrics get additional capabilities as detailed below.

Android includes two API packages to access the camera, the newer android.hardware.camera2 API expose lower-level camera control to the app, including efficient zero-copy burst/streaming flows and per-frame controls of exposure, gain, white balance gains, color conversion, denoising, sharpening, and more.

The older API package, android.hardware.Camera , is marked as deprecated in Android 5.0 but as it should still be available for apps to use. Android device implementations MUST ensure the continued support of the API as described in this section and in the Android SDK.

All features that are common between the deprecated android.hardware.Camera class and the newer android.hardware.camera2 package MUST have equivalent performance and quality in both APIs. For example, with equivalent settings, autofocus speed and accuracy must be identical, and the quality of captured images must be the same. Features that depend on the different semantics of the two APIs are not required to have matching speed or quality, but SHOULD match as closely as possible.

Device implementations MUST implement the following behaviors for the camera-related APIs, for all available cameras. Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST use android.hardware.PixelFormat.YCbCr_420_SP for preview data provided to application callbacks when an application has never called android.hardware.Camera.Parameters.setPreviewFormat(int) .
• [C-0-2] MUST further be in the NV21 encoding format when an application registers an android.hardware.Camera.PreviewCallback instance and the system calls the onPreviewFrame() method and the preview format is YCbCr_420_SP, the data in the byte[] passed into onPreviewFrame() . That is, NV21 MUST be the default.
• [C-0-3] MUST support the YV12 format (as denoted by the android.graphics.ImageFormat.YV12 constant) for camera previews for both front- and rear-facing cameras for android.hardware.Camera . (The hardware video encoder and camera may use any native pixel format, but the device implementation MUST support conversion to YV12.)
• [C-0-4] MUST support the android.hardware.ImageFormat.YUV_420_888 and android.hardware.ImageFormat.JPEG formats as outputs through the android.media.ImageReader API for android.hardware.camera2 devices that advertise REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_BACKWARD_COMPATIBLE capability in android.request.availableCapabilities .
• [C-0-5] MUST still implement the full Camera API included in the Android SDK documentation, regardless of whether the device includes hardware autofocus or other capabilities. For instance, cameras that lack autofocus MUST still call any registered android.hardware.Camera.AutoFocusCallback instances (even though this has no relevance to a non-autofocus camera.) Note that this does apply to front-facing cameras; for instance, even though most front-facing cameras do not support autofocus, the API callbacks must still be "faked" as described.
• [C-0-6] MUST recognize and honor each parameter name defined as a constant in the android.hardware.Camera.Parameters class and the android.hardware.camera2.CaptureRequest class. Conversely, device implementations MUST NOT honor or recognize string constants passed to the android.hardware.Camera.setParameters() method other than those documented as constants on the android.hardware.Camera.Parameters . That is, device implementations MUST support all standard Camera parameters if the hardware allows, and MUST NOT support custom Camera parameter types. For instance, device implementations that support image capture using high dynamic range (HDR) imaging techniques MUST support camera parameter Camera.SCENE_MODE_HDR .
• [C-0-7] MUST report the proper level of support with the android.info.supportedHardwareLevel property as described in the Android SDK and report the appropriate framework feature flags .
• [C-0-8] MUST also declare its individual camera capabilities of android.hardware.camera2 via the android.request.availableCapabilities property and declare the appropriate feature flags ; MUST define the feature flag if any of its attached camera devices supports the feature.

• [C-0-10] MUST broadcast the Camera.ACTION_NEW_VIDEO intent whenever a new video is recorded by the camera and the entry of the picture has been added to the media store.
• [C-0-11] MUST have all cameras accessible via the deprecated android.hardware.Camera API also accessible via the android.hardware.camera2 API.
• [C-0-12] MUST ensure that the facial appearance is NOT altered, including but not limited to altering facial geometry, facial skin tone, or facial skin smoothening for any android.hardware.camera2 or android.hardware.Camera API.
• [C-SR-1] For devices with multiple RGB cameras in close proximity and facing in the same direction, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support a logical camera device that lists capability CameraMetadata.REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_LOGICAL_MULTI_CAMERA , consisting of all of the RGB cameras facing that direction as physical sub-devices.

If device implementations provide a proprietary camera API to 3rd-party apps, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST implement such a camera API using android.hardware.camera2 API.
• MAY provide vendor tags and/or extensions to android.hardware.camera2 API.

That is, when the device is held in the landscape orientation, cameras MUST capture images in the landscape orientation. This applies regardless of the device's natural orientation; that is, it applies to landscape-primary devices as well as portrait-primary devices.

Devices that fulfill all of the following criteria are exempt from the requirement above:

• The device implements variable-geometry screens, such as foldable or hinged displays.

7.10. Haptics

Devices intended to be hand-held or worn may include a general purpose haptic actuator, available to applications for purposes including getting attention through ringtones, alarms, notifications, as well as general touch feedback.

If device implementations DO NOT include such a general purpose haptic actuator, they:

• [7.10/C] MUST return false for Vibrator.hasVibrator() .

If device implementations DO include at least one such general purpose haptic actuator, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST return true for Vibrator.hasVibrator() .
• SHOULD NOT use an eccentric rotating mass (ERM) haptic actuator (vibrator).
• SHOULD implement all public constants for clear haptics in android.view.HapticFeedbackConstants namely ( CLOCK_TICK , CONTEXT_CLICK , KEYBOARD_PRESS , KEYBOARD_RELEASE , KEYBOARD_TAP , LONG_PRESS , TEXT_HANDLE_MOVE , VIRTUAL_KEY , VIRTUAL_KEY_RELEASE , CONFIRM , REJECT , GESTURE_START and GESTURE_END ).

• SHOULD perform a quality assessment for haptic constants.
• SHOULD verify and update if needed the fallback configuration for unsupported primitives as described in the implementation guidance for constants.
• SHOULD provide fallback support to mitigate the risk of failure as described here .

7.11. Media Performance Class

The media performance class of the device implementation can be obtained from the android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.MEDIA_PERFORMANCE_CLASS API. Requirements for media performance class are defined for each Android version starting with R (version 30). The special value of 0 designates that the device is not of a media performance class.

If device implementations return non-zero value for android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.MEDIA_PERFORMANCE_CLASS , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST return at least a value of android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.R .

• [C-1-2] MUST be a handheld device implementation.

• [C-1-3] MUST meet all requirements for "Media Performance Class" described in section 2.2.7 .

In other words, media performance class in Android T is only defined for handheld devices at version T, S or R.

See section 2.2.7 for device-specific requirements.

8. Performance and Power

Some minimum performance and power criteria are critical to the user experience and impact the baseline assumptions developers would have when developing an app.

8.1. User Experience Consistency

A smooth user interface can be provided to the end user if there are certain minimum requirements to ensure a consistent frame rate and response times for applications and games. Device implementations, depending on the device type, MAY have measurable requirements for the user interface latency and task switching as described in section 2 .

8.2. File I/O Access Performance

Providing a common baseline for a consistent file access performance on the application private data storage ( /data partition) allows app developers to set a proper expectation that would help their software design. Device implementations, depending on the device type, MAY have certain requirements described in section 2 for the following read and write operations:

• Sequential write performance . Measured by writing a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
• Random write performance . Measured by writing a 256MB file using 4KB write buffer.
• Sequential read performance . Measured by reading a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
• Random read performance . Measured by reading a 256MB file using 4KB write buffer.

8.3. Power-Saving Modes

If device implementations include features to improve device power management that are included in AOSP (eg App Standby Bucket, Doze) or extend the features to apply stronger restrictions than the RESTRICTED App Standby Bucket , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST NOT deviate from the AOSP implementation for the triggering, maintenance, wakeup algorithms and the use of global system settings or DeviceConfig of App Standby and Doze power-saving modes.
• [C-1-2] MUST NOT deviate from the AOSP implementation for the use of global settings or DeviceConfig to manage the throttling of jobs, alarm and network for apps in each bucket for App standby.
• [C-1-3] MUST NOT deviate from the AOSP implementation for the number of the App Standby Buckets used for App Standby.
• [C-1-4] MUST implement App Standby Buckets and Doze as described in Power Management .
• [C-1-5] MUST return true for PowerManager.isPowerSaveMode() when the device is on power save mode.
• [C-1-6] MUST provide user affordance to display all apps that are exempted from App Standby and Doze power-saving modes or any battery optimizations and MUST implement the ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS intent to ask the user to allow an app to ignore battery optimizations.
• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide user affordance to enable and disable the battery saver feature.
• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide user affordance to display all apps that are exempted from App Standby and Doze power-saving modes.

If device implementations extend power management features that are included in AOSP and that extension applies more stringent restrictions than the Rare App Standby Bucket , refer to section 3.5.1 .

In addition to the power-saving modes, Android device implementations MAY implement any or all of the 4 sleeping power states as defined by the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI).

If device implementations implement S4 power states as defined by the ACPI, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST enter this state only after the user has taken an explicit action to put the device in an inactive state (eg by closing a lid that is physically part of the device or turning off a vehicle or television) and before the user re-activates the device (eg by opening the lid or turning the vehicle or television back on).

If device implementations implement S3 power states as defined by the ACPI, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST meet C-1-1 above, or, MUST enter S3 state only when third-party applications do not need the system resources (eg the screen, CPU).

  Conversely, MUST exit from S3 state when third-party applications need the system resources, as described on this SDK.

  For example, while the third-party applications request to keep the screen on through FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON or keep CPU running through PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK , the device MUST NOT enter S3 state unless, as described in C-1-1, the user has taken explicit action to put the device in an inactive state. Conversely, at a time when a task that third-party apps implement through JobScheduler is triggered or Firebase Cloud Messaging is delivered to third-party apps, the device MUST exit the S3 state unless the user has put the device in an inactive state. These are not comprehensive examples and AOSP implements extensive wake-up signals that trigger a wakeup from this state.

8.4. Power Consumption Accounting

A more accurate accounting and reporting of the power consumption provides the app developer both the incentives and the tools to optimize the power usage pattern of the application.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-SR-1] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide a per-component power profile that defines the current consumption value for each hardware component and the approximate battery drain caused by the components over time as documented in the Android Open Source Project site.
• [C-SR-2] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to report all power consumption values in milliampere hours (mAh).
• [C-SR-3] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to report CPU power consumption per each process's UID. The Android Open Source Project meets the requirement through the uid_cputime kernel module implementation.
• [C-SR-4] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to make this power usage available via the adb shell dumpsys batterystats shell command to the app developer.
• SHOULD be attributed to the hardware component itself if unable to attribute hardware component power usage to an application.

8.5. Consistent Performance

Performance can fluctuate dramatically for high-performance long-running apps, either because of the other apps running in the background or the CPU throttling due to temperature limits. Android includes programmatic interfaces so that when the device is capable, the top foreground application can request that the system optimize the allocation of the resources to address such fluctuations.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST report the support of Sustained Performance Mode accurately through the PowerManager.isSustainedPerformanceModeSupported() API method.

• SHOULD support Sustained Performance Mode.

If device implementations report support of Sustained Performance Mode, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST provide the top foreground application a consistent level of performance for at least 30 minutes, when the app requests it.
• [C-1-2] MUST honor the Window.setSustainedPerformanceMode() API and other related APIs.

If device implementations include two or more CPU cores, they:

• SHOULD provide at least one exclusive core that can be reserved by the top foreground application.

If device implementations support reserving one exclusive core for the top foreground application, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST report through the Process.getExclusiveCores() API method the ID numbers of the exclusive cores that can be reserved by the top foreground application.
• [C-2-2] MUST not allow any user space processes except the device drivers used by the application to run on the exclusive cores, but MAY allow some kernel processes to run as necessary.

If device implementations do not support an exclusive core, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST return an empty list through the Process.getExclusiveCores() API method.

9. Security Model Compatibility

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST implement a security model consistent with the Android platform security model as defined in Security and Permissions reference document in the APIs in the Android developer documentation.

• [C-0-2] MUST support installation of self-signed applications without requiring any additional permissions/certificates from any third parties/authorities.

If device implementations declare the android.hardware.security.model.compatible feature, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support the requirements listed in the following subsections.

9.1. Разрешения

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST support the Android permissions model and the Android Roles Model as defined in the Android developer documentation. Specifically, they MUST enforce each permission and role defined as described in the SDK documentation; no permissions and no roles may be omitted, altered, or ignored.

• MAY add additional permissions, provided the new permission ID strings are not in the android.\* namespace.

• [C-0-2] Permissions with a protectionLevel of PROTECTION_FLAG_PRIVILEGED MUST only be granted to apps preinstalled in the privileged path(s) of the system image (as well as APEX files ) and be within the subset of the explicitly allowlisted permissions for each приложение. The AOSP implementation meets this requirement by reading and honoring the allowlisted permissions for each app from the files in the etc/permissions/ path and using the system/priv-app path as the privileged path.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

Permissions with a protection level of dangerous are runtime permissions. Applications with targetSdkVersion > 22 request them at runtime.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-3] MUST show a dedicated interface for the user to decide whether to grant the requested runtime permissions and also provide an interface for the user to manage runtime permissions.

• [C-0-5] MUST NOT grant any runtime permissions to apps unless:

  • They are installed at time of device shipment, AND

  • The user's consent can be obtained before the application uses the permission,

    ИЛИ

  • The runtime permissions are granted by the default permission grant policy or for holding a platform role .

• [C-0-6] MUST grant the android.permission.RECOVER_KEYSTORE permission only to system apps that register a properly secured Recovery Agent. A properly secured Recovery Agent is defined as an on-device software agent that synchronizes with an off-device remote storage, that is equipped with secure hardware with protection equivalent or stronger than what is described in Google Cloud Key Vault Service to prevent brute-force attacks on the lockscreen knowledge factor.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-7] MUST adhere to Android location permission properties when an app requests the location or physical activity data through standard Android API or proprietary mechanism. Such data includes but not limited to:

  • Device's location (eg latitude and longitude) as described in section 9.8.8 .
  • Information that can be used to determine or estimate the device's location (eg SSID, BSSID, Cell ID, or location of the network that the device is connected to).
  • User's physical activity or classification of the physical activity.

More specifically, device implementations:

• [C-0-8] MUST obtain user consent to allow an app to access the location or physical activity data.
• [C-0-9] MUST grant a runtime permission ONLY to the app that holds sufficient permission as described on SDK. For example, TelephonyManager#getServiceState requires android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION ).

The only exceptions to the Android location permission properties above are for apps not accessing Location to derive or identify user location; конкретно:

• When apps hold the RADIO_SCAN_WITHOUT_LOCATION permission.
• For device configuration and setup purposes, where system apps hold the NETWORK_SETTINGS or NETWORK_SETUP_WIZARD permission.

Permissions can be marked as restricted altering their behavior.

• [C-0-10] Permissions marked with the flag hardRestricted MUST NOT be granted to an app unless:

  • An app APK file is in the system partition.
  • The user assigns a role that is associated with the hardRestricted permissions to an app.
  • The installer grants the hardRestricted to an app.
  • An app is granted the hardRestricted on an earlier Android version.

• [C-0-11] Apps holding a softRestricted permission MUST get only limited access and MUST NOT gain full access until allowlisted as described in the SDK, where full and limited access is defined for each softRestricted permission (for example, READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE ).

• [C-0-12] MUST NOT provide any custom functions or APIs to bypass the permission restrictions defined in setPermissionPolicy and setPermissionGrantState APIs.

• [C-0-13] MUST use the AppOpsManager APIs to record and track each and every programmatic access of data protected by dangerous permissions from Android activities and services.

• [C-0-14] MUST only assign roles to applications with functionalities that meet the role requirements.

• [C-0-15] MUST not define roles that are duplicates or superset functionality of roles defined by the platform.

If devices report android.software.managed_users , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST NOT have the following permissions silently granted by the admin:
  • Location (ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION, ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION).
  • Camera (CAMERA)
  • Microphone (RECORD_AUDIO)
  • Body sensor (BODY_SENSORS)
  • Physical activity (ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION)

If device implementations provide a user affordance to choose which apps can draw on top of other apps with an activity that handles the ACTION_MANAGE_OVERLAY_PERMISSION intent, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST ensure that all activities with intent filters for the ACTION_MANAGE_OVERLAY_PERMISSION intent have the same UI screen, regardless of the initiating app or any information it provides.

If device implementations report android.software.device_admin, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST show a disclaimer during fully managed device setup (device owner setup) stating that the IT admin will have the ability to allow apps to control settings on the phone including microphone, camera and location, with options for user to continue setup or exit setup UNLESS the admin has opted out of control of permissions on the device.

If device implementations pre-install any packages that hold any of the System UI Intelligence , System Ambient Audio Intelligence , System Audio Intelligence , System Notification Intelligence , System Text Intelligence , or System Visual Intelligence roles, the packages:

• [C-4-1] MUST fulfill all requirements outlined for device implementations in sections "9.8.6 OS-level and ambient data and 9.8.15 Sandboxed API implementations".

If device implementations include a default application to support the VoiceInteractionService they:

• [C-5-1] MUST NOT grant ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION as the default for that application.

9.2. UID and Process Isolation

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST support the Android application sandbox model, in which each application runs as a unique Unixstyle UID and in a separate process.
• [C-0-2] MUST support running multiple applications as the same Linux user ID, provided that the applications are properly signed and constructed, as defined in the Security and Permissions reference .

9.3. Filesystem Permissions

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST support the Android file access permissions model as defined in the Security and Permissions reference .

9.4. Alternate Execution Environments

Device implementations MUST keep consistency of the Android security and permission model, even if they include runtime environments that execute applications using some other software or technology than the Dalvik Executable Format or native code. Другими словами:

• [C-0-1] Alternate runtimes MUST themselves be Android applications, and abide by the standard Android security model, as described elsewhere in section 9 .

• [C-0-2] Alternate runtimes MUST NOT be granted access to resources protected by permissions not requested in the runtime's AndroidManifest.xml file via the < uses-permission > mechanism.

• [C-0-3] Alternate runtimes MUST NOT permit applications to make use of features protected by Android permissions restricted to system applications.

• [C-0-4] Alternate runtimes MUST abide by the Android sandbox model and installed applications using an alternate runtime MUST NOT reuse the sandbox of any other app installed on the device, except through the standard Android mechanisms of shared user ID and signing certificate .

• [C-0-5] Alternate runtimes MUST NOT launch with, grant, or be granted access to the sandboxes corresponding to other Android applications.

• [C-0-6] Alternate runtimes MUST NOT be launched with, be granted, or grant to other applications any privileges of the superuser (root), or of any other user ID.

• [C-0-7] When the .apk files of alternate runtimes are included in the system image of device implementations, it MUST be signed with a key distinct from the key used to sign other applications included with the device implementations.

• [C-0-8] When installing applications, alternate runtimes MUST obtain user consent for the Android permissions used by the application.

• [C-0-9] When an application needs to make use of a device resource for which there is a corresponding Android permission (such as Camera, GPS, etc.), the alternate runtime MUST inform the user that the application will be able to access that resource.

• [C-0-10] When the runtime environment does not record application capabilities in this manner, the runtime environment MUST list all permissions held by the runtime itself when installing any application using that runtime.

• Alternate runtimes SHOULD install apps via the PackageManager into separate Android sandboxes (Linux user IDs, etc.).

• Alternate runtimes MAY provide a single Android sandbox shared by all applications using the alternate runtime.

9.5. Многопользовательская поддержка

Android includes support for multiple users and provides support for full user isolation and clone user profiles with partial isolation(ie single additional user profile of type android.os.usertype.profile.CLONE ).

• Device implementations MAY but SHOULD NOT enable multi-user if they use removable media for primary external storage.

If device implementations include support for multiple users, they:

• [C-1-2] MUST, for each user, implement a security model consistent with the Android platform security model as defined in Security and Permissions reference document in the APIs.
• [C-1-3] MUST have separate and isolated shared application storage (aka /sdcard ) directories for each user instance.
• [C-1-4] MUST ensure that applications owned by and running on behalf a given user cannot list, read, or write to the files owned by any other user, even if the data of both users are stored on the same volume or file system.
• [C-1-5] MUST encrypt the contents of the SD card when multiuser is enabled using a key stored only on non-removable media accessible only to the system if device implementations use removable media for the external storage APIs. As this will make the media unreadable by a host PC, device implementations will be required to switch to MTP or a similar system to provide host PCs with access to the current user's data.

If device implementations include support for multiple users, then for all users except users specifically created for running dual instances of the same app, they:

• [C-2-1] MUST have separate and isolated shared application storage (aka /sdcard) directories for each user instance.
• [C-2-2] MUST ensure that applications owned by and running on behalf of a given user cannot list, read, or write to the files owned by any other user, even if the data of both users are stored on the same volume or file system.

Device implementations MAY create a single additional user profile of type android.os.usertype.profile.CLONE against the primary user (and only against the primary user) for the purpose of running dual instances of the same app. These dual instances share partially isolated storage, are presented to the end user in the launcher at the same time and appear in the same recents view. For example, this could be used to support the user installing two separate instances of a single app on a dual-SIM device.

If device implementations create the additional user profile discussed above, then they:

• [C-3-1] MUST only provide access to storage or data that is either already accessible to the parent user profile or is directly owned by this additional user profile.
• [C-3-2] MUST NOT have this as a work profile.
• [C-3-3] MUST have isolated private app data directories from the parent user account.
• [C-3-4] MUST NOT allow the additional user profile to be created if there is a Device Owner provisioned (see section 3.9.1) or allow a Device Owner to be provisioned without removing the additional user profile first.

• [C-0-6] MUST implement a kernel application sandboxing mechanism which allows filtering of system calls using a configurable policy from multithreaded programs. The upstream Android Open Source Project meets this requirement through enabling the seccomp-BPF with threadgroup synchronization (TSYNC) as described in the Kernel Configuration section of source.android.com .

Kernel integrity and self-protection features are integral to Android security. Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-7] MUST implement kernel stack buffer overflow protection mechanisms. Examples of such mechanisms are CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR and CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG .

In order to reduce memory bugs, device implementations:

• [C-SR-10] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be tested using userspace memory error detection tools like MTE for ARMv9 devices, HWASan for ARMv8+ devices or ASan for other device types.
• [C-SR-11] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be tested using kernel memory error detection tools like KASAN (CONFIG_KASAN, CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS for ARMv9 devices, CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS for ARMv8 devices or CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC for other device types).
• [C-SR-12] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be using memory error detection tools in production like MTE, GWP-ASan and KFENCE.

If device implementations use an Arm TrustZone-based TEE, they:

• [C-SR-13] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use a standard protocol for memory sharing, between Android and the TEE, like Arm Firmware Framework for Armv8-A (FF-A).
• [C-SR-14] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to restrict trusted applications to only accessing memory which has been explicitly shared with them via the above protocol. If the device has support for the Arm S-EL2 exception level, this should be enforced by the secure partition manager. Otherwise, this should be enforced by the TEE OS.

A Memory Safety technology is a technology that mitigates at least the following classes of bugs with a high (> 90%) probability in applications that use the android:memtagMode manifest option:

• heap buffer overflow
• use after free
• double free
• wild free (free of a non-malloc pointer)

Реализации устройства:

• [C-SR-15] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to set ro.arm64.memtag.bootctl_supported .

If device implementations set the system property ro.arm64.memtag.bootctl_supported to true, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST allow the system property arm64.memtag.bootctl to accept a comma-separated list of the following values, with the desired effect applied on the next subsequent reboot:

  • memtag : a Memory Safety technology as defined above is enabled
  • memtag-once : a Memory Safety technology as defined above is transiently enabled, and is automatically disabled upon, next reboot
  • memtag-off : a Memory Safety technology as defined above is disabled

• [C-3-2] MUST allow the shell user to set arm64.memtag.bootctl .

• [C-3-3] MUST allow any process to read arm64.memtag.bootctl .

• [C-3-4] MUST set arm64.memtag.bootctl to the currently requested state upon boot, it MUST also update the property, if the device implementation allows to modify the state without changing the system property.

• [C-SR-16] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to show a Developer Setting that sets memtag-once and reboots the device. With a compatible bootloader, the Android Open Source Project meets the above requirements through the MTE bootloader protocol .

9.8.11. Data blobs sharing

Android, through BlobStoreManager allows apps to contribute data blobs to the System to be shared with a selected set of apps.

If device implementations support shared data blobs as described in the SDK documentation , they:

• [C-1-1] MUST NOT share data blobs belonging to apps beyond what they intended to allow (ie the scope of default access and the other access modes that can be specified using BlobStoreManager.session#allowPackageAccess() , BlobStoreManager.session#allowSameSignatureAccess() , or BlobStoreManager.session#allowPublicAccess() MUST NOT be modified). The AOSP reference implementation meets these requirements.

Any Sandboxed API implementation:

• [C-0-1] MUST NOT request the INTERNET permission.
• [C-0-2] MUST only access the internet through structured APIs backed by publicly available open-source implementations using privacy-preserving mechanisms, or indirectly via Android SDK APIs. The privacy-preserving mechanism is defined as "those which allow only analysis in aggregate and prevent matching of logged events or derived outcomes to individual users", to prevent any per-user data being introspectable (eg, implemented using a differential privacy technology such as RAPPOR ).

  • Telephony, Contacts, System UI, and Media
• [C-0-4] MUST NOT allow users to replace the services with a user-installable application or service
• [C-0-5] MUST only allow the preinstalled services to capture such data. Unless the replacement capability is built into AOSP (eg for Digital Assistant Apps).
• [C-0-6] MUST NOT allow any apps other than the preinstalled services mechanism to be able to capture such data. Unless such capture capability is implemented with an Android SDK API.
• [C-0-7] MUST provide user affordance to disable the services.
• [C-0-8] MUST NOT omit user affordance to manage Android permissions that are held by the services and follow the Android permissions model as described in Section 9.1. Разрешение .

9.8.16. Continuous Audio and Camera data

Start of new requirements for Android 15

• [C-0-1] MUST enforce a corresponding indicator (camera and/or microphone as per section 9.8.2 Recording), unless:
  • This access is performed in a Sandboxed implementation (see 9.8.15 Sandboxed API implementation), through a package holding one or more of the following roles: System UI Intelligence , System Ambient Audio Intelligence , System Audio Intelligence , System Notification Intelligence , System Text Intelligence , or System Visual Intelligence .
  • The access is performed through a sandbox, implemented and enforced via mechanisms in AOSP ( HotwordDetectionService , WearableSensingService , VisualQueryDetector ).
  • Audio access is performed for assistive purposes by the Digital Assistant application, supplying SOURCE_HOTWORD as an audio source.
  • The access is performed by the system and implemented with open-source code.
• [C-SR-1] Is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to require user consent for every functionality utilizing such data, and be disabled by default.
• [C-SR-2] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to apply the same treatment (ie follow the restrictions outlined in 9.8.2 Recording, 9.8.6 OS-level and ambient data, 9.8.15 Sandboxed API implementations, and 9.8.16 Continuous Audio and Camera data) to Camera data coming from a remote wearable device.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

• [C-1-1] MUST indicate to the remote wearable device to display an additional indicator there.

If devices provide capability to engage with a Digital Assistant Application without the assigned keyword (either handling generic user queries, or analyzing user presence through camera), they:

• [C-2-1] MUST ensure such implementation is provided by a package holding the android.app.role.ASSISTANT role.
• [C-2-2] MUST ensure such implementation utilizes HotwordDetectionService and/or VisualQueryDetectionService Android APIs.

9.8.17. Telemetry

Android stores system and app logs using StatsLog APIs. These logs are managed via StatsManager APIs which can be used by privileged system applications.

StatsManager also provides a way to collect data categorized as privacy sensitive from devices with a privacy preserving mechanism. In particular, StatsManager::query API provides the ability to query restricted metric categories defined in StatsLog .

Any implementation querying and collecting restricted metrics from StatsManager:

• [C-0-1] MUST be the sole application/implementation on the device and hold the READ_RESTRICTED_STATS permission.
• [C-0-2] MUST only send telemetry data and the log of the device using a privacy-preserving mechanism. The privacy-preserving mechanism is defined as "those which allow only analysis in aggregate and prevent matching of logged events or derived outcomes to individual users", to prevent any per-user data being introspectable (eg, implemented using a differential privacy technology such as RAPPOR ).
• [C-0-3] MUST NOT associate such data with any user identity (such as Account ) on the device.
• [C-0-4] MUST NOT share such data with other OS components that don't follow requirements outlined in the current section (9.8.17 Privacy-preserving Telemetry).
• [C-0-5] MUST provide a user affordance to enable/disable privacy-preserving telemetry collection, use, and sharing.
• [C-0-6] MUST provide user affordance to erase such data that the implementation collects if the data is stored in any form on the device. If the user chose to erase the data, MUST remove all data currently stored on the device.
• [C-0-7] MUST disclose underlying privacy-preserving protocol implementation in an open source repository.
• [C-0-8 ]MUST enforce data egress policies in this section to gate collection of data in restricted metric categories defined in StatsLog .

9.9. Шифрование хранения данных

All devices MUST meet the requirements of section 9.9.1. Devices which launched on an API level earlier than that of this document are exempted from the requirements of sections 9.9.2 and 9.9.3; instead they MUST meet the requirements in section 9.9 of the Android Compatibility Definition document corresponding to the API level on which the device launched.

9.9.1. Direct Boot

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST implement the Direct Boot mode APIs even if they do not support Storage Encryption.

• [C-0-2] The ACTION_LOCKED_BOOT_COMPLETED and ACTION_USER_UNLOCKED Intents MUST still be broadcast to signal Direct Boot aware applications that Device Encrypted (DE) and Credential Encrypted (CE) storage locations are available for user.

9.9.2. Encryption requirements

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST encrypt the application private data ( /data partition), as well as the application shared storage partition ( /sdcard partition) if it is a permanent, non-removable part of the device.
• [C-0-2] MUST enable the data storage encryption by default at the time the user has completed the out-of-box setup experience.

• [C-0-3] MUST meet the above data storage encryption requirement by implementing one of the following two encryption methods:

  • File Based Encryption (FBE) and Metadata Encryption as described in section 9.9.3.1.
  • Per-User Block-Level Encryption as described in section 9.9.3.2.

9.9.3. Encryption Methods

If device implementations are encrypted, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST boot up without challenging the user for credentials and allow Direct Boot aware apps to access to the Device Encrypted (DE) storage after the ACTION_LOCKED_BOOT_COMPLETED message is broadcasted.
• [C-1-2] MUST only allow access to Credential Encrypted (CE) storage after the user has unlocked the device by supplying their credentials (eg. passcode, pin, pattern or fingerprint) and the ACTION_USER_UNLOCKED message is broadcasted.
• [C-1-13] MUST NOT offer any method to unlock the CE protected storage without either the user-supplied credentials, a registered escrow key or a resume on reboot implementation meeting the requirements in section 9.9.4 .
• [C-1-4] MUST use Verified Boot.

9.9.3.1. Шифрование файлов с шифрованием метаданных

If device implementations use File Based Encryption with Metadata Encryption, they:

• [C-1-5] MUST encrypt file contents and file system metadata using AES-256-XTS or Adiantum. AES-256-XTS refers to the Advanced Encryption Standard with a 256-bit cipher key length, operated in XTS mode; the full length of the key is 512 bits.Adiantum refers to Adiantum-XChaCha12-AES, as specified at https://github.com/google/adiantum. File system metadata is data such as file sizes, ownership, modes, and extended attributes (xattrs).
• [C-1-6] MUST encrypt file names using AES-256-CBC-CTS, AES-256-HCTR2, or Adiantum.
• [C-1-12] If the device has Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) instructions (such as ARMv8 Cryptography Extensions on ARM-based devices, or AES-NI on x86-based devices) then the AES-based options above for filename, file contents, and file system metadata encryption MUST be used, not Adiantum.
• [C-1-13] MUST use a cryptographically strong and non-reversible key derivation function (eg HKDF-SHA512) to derive any needed subkeys (eg per-file keys) from the CE and DE keys. "Cryptographically strong and non-reversible" means that the key derivation function has a security strength of at least 256 bits and behaves as a pseudorandom function family over its inputs.
• [C-1-14] MUST NOT use the same File Based Encryption (FBE) keys or subkeys for different cryptographic purposes (eg for both encryption and key derivation, or for two different encryption algorithms).
• [C-1-15] MUST ensure that all non-deleted blocks of encrypted file contents on persistent storage were encrypted using combinations of encryption key and initialization vector (IV) that depend on both the file and the offset within the file. In addition, all such combinations MUST be distinct, except where the encryption is done using inline encryption hardware that only supports an IV length of 32 bits.
• [C-1-16] MUST ensure that all non-deleted encrypted filenames on persistent storage in distinct directories were encrypted using distinct combinations of encryption key and initialization vector (IV).

• [C-1-17] MUST ensure that all encrypted file system metadata blocks on persistent storage were encrypted using distinct combinations of encryption key and initialization vector (IV).

• Keys protecting CE and DE storage areas and file system metadata:

  • [C-1-7] MUST be cryptographically bound to a hardware-backed Keystore. This keystore MUST be bound to Verified Boot and the device's hardware root of trust.
  • [C-1-8] CE keys MUST be bound to a user's lock screen credentials.
  • [C-1-9] CE keys MUST be bound to a default passcode when the user has not specified lock screen credentials.
  • [C-1-10] MUST be unique and distinct, in other words no user's CE or DE key matches any other user's CE or DE keys.
  • [C-1-11] MUST use the mandatorily supported ciphers, key lengths and modes.
  • [C-1-12] MUST be securely erased during bootloader unlock and lock as described here .

• SHOULD make preinstalled essential apps (eg Alarm, Phone, Messenger) Direct Boot aware.

The upstream Android Open Source project provides a preferred implementation of File Based Encryption based on the Linux kernel "fscrypt" encryption feature, and of Metadata Encryption based on the Linux kernel "dm-default-key" feature.

9.9.3.2. Per-User Block-Level Encryption

If device implementations use per-user block-level encryption, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST enable multi-user support as described in section 9.5.
• [C-1-2] MUST provide per-user partitions, either using raw partitions or logical volumes.
• [C-1-3] MUST use unique and distinct encryption keys per-user for encryption of the underlying block devices.

• [C-1-4] MUST use AES-256-XTS for block-level encryption of the user partitions.

• The keys protecting the per-user block-level encrypted devices:

  • [C-1-5] MUST be cryptographically bound to a hardware-backed Keystore. This keystore MUST be bound to Verified Boot and the device's hardware root of trust.
  • [C-1-6] MUST be bound to the corresponding user's lock screen credentials.

Per-user block-level encryption can be implemented using the Linux kernel "dm-crypt" feature over per-user partitions.

9.9.4. Resume on Reboot

Resume on Reboot allows unlocking the CE storage of all apps, including those that do not yet support Direct Boot, after a reboot initiated by an OTA. This feature enables users to receive notifications from installed apps after the reboot.

An implementation of Resume-on-Reboot must continue to ensure that when a device falls into an attacker's hands, it is extremely difficult for that attacker to recover the user's CE-encrypted data, even if the device is powered on, CE storage is unlocked, and the user has unlocked the device after receiving an OTA. For insider attack resistance, we also assume the attacker gains access to broadcast cryptographic signing keys.

Конкретно:

• [C-0-1] CE storage MUST NOT be readable even for the attacker who physically has the device and then has these capabilities and limitations:

  • Can use the signing key of any vendor or company to sign arbitrary messages.
  • Can cause an OTA to be received by the device.
  • Can modify the operation of any hardware (AP, flash etc) except as detailed below, but such modification involves a delay of at least an hour and a power cycle that destroys RAM contents.
  • Cannot modify the operation of tamper-resistant hardware (eg Titan M).
  • Cannot read the RAM of the live device.
  • Cannot obtain the user's credential (PIN, pattern, password) or otherwise cause it to be entered.

By way of example, a device implementation that implements and complies with all of the descriptions found here will be compliant with [C-0-1].

9.10. Целостность устройства

The following requirements ensure there is transparency to the status of the device integrity. Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST correctly report through the System API method PersistentDataBlockManager.getFlashLockState() whether their bootloader state permits flashing of the system image.

• [C-0-2] MUST support Verified Boot for device integrity.

If device implementations are already launched without supporting Verified Boot on an earlier version of Android and cannot add support for this feature with a system software update, they MAY be exempted from the requirement.

Проверенная загрузка — это функция, гарантирующая целостность программного обеспечения устройства. If device implementations support the feature, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare the platform feature flag android.software.verified_boot .
• [C-1-2] MUST perform verification on every boot sequence.
• [C-1-3] MUST start verification from an immutable hardware key that is the root of trust and go all the way up to the system partition.
• [C-1-4] MUST implement each stage of verification to check the integrity and authenticity of all the bytes in the next stage before executing the code in the next stage.
• [C-1-5] MUST use verification algorithms as strong as current recommendations from NIST for hashing algorithms (SHA-256) and public key sizes (RSA-2048).
• [C-1-6] MUST NOT allow boot to complete when system verification fails, unless the user consents to attempt booting anyway, in which case the data from any non-verified storage blocks MUST not be used.
• [C-1-7] MUST NOT allow verified partitions on the device to be modified unless the user has explicitly unlocked the bootloader.
• [C-1-8] MUST use tamper-evident storage: for storing whether the bootloader is unlocked. Tamper-evident storage means that the bootloader can detect if the storage has been tampered with from inside Android.
• [C-1-9] MUST prompt the user, while using the device, and require physical confirmation before allowing a transition from bootloader locked mode to bootloader unlocked mode.
• [C-1-10] MUST implement rollback protection for partitions used by Android (eg boot, system partitions) and use tamper-evident storage for storing the metadata used for determining the minimum allowable OS version.
• [C-1-11] MUST securely erase all user data during bootloader unlock and lock, as per '9.12. Data Deletion' (including the userdata partition and any NVRAM spaces).

Start of new requirements for Android 15

• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to verify all privileged app APK files with a chain of trust rooted in partitions protected by Verified Boot.
• [C-SR-3] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to verify any executable artifacts loaded by a privileged app from outside its APK file (such as dynamically loaded code or compiled code) before executing them or STRONGLY RECOMMENDED not to execute them at all.
• SHOULD implement rollback protection for any component with persistent firmware (eg modem, camera) and SHOULD use tamper-evident storage for storing the metadata used for determining the minimum allowable version.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

The upstream Android Open Source Project provides a preferred implementation of this feature in the external/avb/ repository, which can be integrated into the bootloader used for loading Android.

If device implementations have the ability to verify file content on the per-page basis, then they:

• [C-2-1] support cryptographically verifying file content without reading the whole file.

• [C-2-2] MUST NOT allow the read requests on a protected file to succeed when the read content is not verified per [C-2-1] above.

• [C-2-4] MUST return file checksum in O(1) for enabled files.

If device implementations are already launched without the ability to verify file content against a trusted key on an earlier Android version and can not add support for this feature with a system software update, they MAY be exempted from the requirement. The upstream Android Open Source project provides a preferred implementation of this feature based on the Linux kernel fs-verity feature.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

9.11. Ключи и учетные данные

The Android Keystore System allows app developers to store cryptographic keys in a container and use them in cryptographic operations through the KeyChain API or the Keystore API . Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST allow at least 8,192 keys to be imported or generated.
• [C-0-2] The lock screen authentication MUST implement a time interval between failed attempts. With n as the failed attempt count, the time interval MUST be at least 30 seconds for 9 < n < 30. For n > 29, the time interval value MUST be at least 30*2^floor((n-30)/10)) seconds or at least 24 hours, whichever is smaller.
• SHOULD not limit the number of keys that can be generated.

When the device implementation supports a secure lock screen, it:

• [C-1-1] MUST back up the keystore implementation with an isolated execution environment.
• [C-1-2] MUST have implementations of RSA, AES, ECDSA, ECDH (if IKeyMintDevice is supported), 3DES, and HMAC cryptographic algorithms and MD5, SHA-1, and SHA-2 family hash functions to properly support the Android Keystore system's supported algorithms in an area that is securely isolated from the code running on the kernel and above. Secure isolation MUST block all potential mechanisms by which kernel or userspace code might access the internal state of the isolated environment, including DMA. The upstream Android Open Source Project (AOSP) meets this requirement by using the Trusty implementation, but another ARM TrustZone-based solution or a third-party reviewed secure implementation of a proper hypervisor-based isolation are alternative options.
• [C-1-3] MUST perform the lock screen authentication in the isolated execution environment and only when successful, allow the authentication-bound keys to be used. Lock screen credentials MUST be stored in a way that allows only the isolated execution environment to perform lock screen authentication. The upstream Android Open Source Project provides the Gatekeeper Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) and Trusty, which can be used to satisfy this requirement.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

Note that if a device implementation is already launched on an earlier Android version, such a device is exempted from the requirement to have a keystore backed by an isolated execution environment and support the key attestation, unless it declares the android.hardware.fingerprint feature which requires a keystore backed by an isolated execution environment.

• [C-1-5] MUST allow the user to choose the Sleep timeout for transition from the unlocked to the locked state, with a minimum allowable timeout up to 15 seconds. Automotive devices, that lock the screen whenever the head unit is turned off or the user is switched, MAY NOT have the Sleep timeout configuration.
• [C-1-6] MUST support one of the following:
  • IKeymasterDevice 3.0,
  • IKeymasterDevice 4.0,
  • IKeymasterDevice 4.1,
  • IKeyMintDevice version 1, or
  • IKeyMintDevice version 2.
• [C-SR-1] Is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support IKeyMintDevice version 1.

9.11.1. Экран безопасной блокировки, аутентификация и виртуальные устройства

The AOSP implementation follows a tiered authentication model where a knowledge-factory based primary authentication can be backed by either a secondary strong biometric, or by weaker tertiary modalities.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to set only one of the following as the primary authentication method:

  • A numerical PIN
  • An alphanumerical password

  • A swipe pattern on a grid of exactly 3x3 dots

    Note that the above authentication methods are referred as the recommended primary authentication methods in this document.

• [C-0-1] MUST limit the number of failed primary authentication attempts.

• [C-SR-5] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement an upper bound of 20 failed primary authentication attempts and if users consent and opt-in the feature, perform a "Factory Data Reset" after exceeding the limit of failed primary authentication attempts.

If device implementations set a numerical PIN as the recommended primary authentication method, then:

• [C-SR-6] A PIN is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to have at least 6 digits, or equivalently a 20-bit entropy.
• [C-SR-7] A PIN of a length less than 6 digits is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED NOT to allow automatic entry without user interaction to avoid revealing the PIN length.

If device implementations add or modify the recommended primary authentication methods and use a new authentication method as a secure way to lock the screen, the new authentication method:

• [C-2-1] MUST be the user authentication method as described in Requiring User Authentication For Key Use .

If device implementations add or modify the authentication methods to unlock the lock screen if based on a known secret and use a new authentication method to be treated as a secure way to lock the screen:

• [C-3-1] The entropy of the shortest allowed length of inputs MUST be greater than 10 bits.
• [C-3-2] The maximum entropy of all possible inputs MUST be greater than 18 bits.
• [C-3-3] The new authentication method MUST NOT replace any of the recommended primary authentication methods (ie PIN, pattern, password) implemented and provided in AOSP.
• [C-3-4] The new authentication method MUST be disabled when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the password requirements policy via the DevicePolicyManager.setRequiredPasswordComplexity() with a more restrictive complexity constant than PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_NONE or via the DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality() method with a more restrictive constant than PASSWORD_QUALITY_BIOMETRIC_WEAK .
• [C-3-5] New authentication methods MUST either fall back to the recommended primary authentication methods (ie PIN, pattern, password) once every 72 hours or less OR clearly disclose to the user that some data will not be backed up in order to preserve the privacy of their data.

If device implementations add or modify the recommended primary authentication methods to unlock the lock screen and use a new authentication method that is based on biometrics to be treated as a secure way to lock the screen, the new method:

• [C-4-1] MUST meet all requirements described in section 7.3.10 for Class 1 (formerly Convenience ).
• [C-4-2] MUST have a fall-back mechanism to use one of the recommended primary authentication methods which is based on a known secret.
• [C-4-3] MUST be disabled and only allow the recommended primary authentication to unlock the screen when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the keyguard feature policy by calling the method DevicePolicyManager.setKeyguardDisabledFeatures() , with any of the associated biometric flags (ie KEYGUARD_DISABLE_BIOMETRICS , KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT , KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FACE , or KEYGUARD_DISABLE_IRIS ).

If the biometric authentication methods do not meet the requirements for Class 3 (formerly Strong ) as described in section 7.3.10 :

• [C-5-1] The methods MUST be disabled if the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the password requirements quality policy via the DevicePolicyManager.setRequiredPasswordComplexity() with a more restrictive complexity bucket than PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_LOW or using DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality() method with a more restrictive quality constant than PASSWORD_QUALITY_BIOMETRIC_WEAK .
• [C-5-2] The user MUST be challenged for the recommended primary authentication (eg: PIN, pattern, password) as described in [C-1-7] and [C-1-8] in section 7.3.10 .
• [C-5-3] The methods MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen, and MUST meet the requirements that start with C-8 in this section below.

If device implementations add or modify the authentication methods to unlock the lock screen and a new authentication method is based on a physical token or the location:

• [C-6-1] They MUST have a fall-back mechanism to use one of the recommended primary authentication methods which is based on a known secret and meet the requirements to be treated as a secure lock screen.
• [C-6-2] The new method MUST be disabled and only allow one of the recommended primary authentication methods to unlock the screen when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the policy with either:
  • The DevicePolicyManager.setKeyguardDisabledFeatures(KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS) method
  • The DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality() method with a more restrictive quality constant than PASSWORD_QUALITY_NONE .
  • The DevicePolicyManager.setRequiredPasswordComplexity() method with a more restrictive complexity bucket than PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_NONE .
• [C-6-3] The user MUST be challenged for one of the recommended primary authentication methods (egPIN, pattern, password) at least once every 4 hours or less. When a physical token meets the requirements for TrustAgent implementations in CX, timeout restrictions defined in C-9-5 apply instead.
• [C-6-4] The new method MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen and MUST follow the constraints listed in C-8 below.

If device implementations have a secure lock screen and include one or more trust agent, which implements the TrustAgentService System API, they:

• [C-7-1] MUST have clear indication in the settings menu and on the lock screen when device lock is deferred or can be unlocked by trust agent(s). For example, AOSP meets this requirement by showing a text description for the "Automatically lock setting" and "Power button instantly locks" in the settings menu and a distinguishable icon on the lock screen.
• [C-7-2] MUST respect and fully implement all trust agent APIs in the DevicePolicyManager class, such as the KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS constant.
• [C-7-3] MUST NOT fully implement the TrustAgentService.addEscrowToken() function on a device that is used as a primary personal device (eg handheld) but MAY fully implement the function on device implementations that are typically shared (eg Android Television or Automotive device).
• [C-7-4] MUST encrypt all stored tokens added by TrustAgentService.addEscrowToken() .
• [C-7-5] MUST NOT store the encryption key or escrow token on the same device where the key is used. For example, it is allowed for a key stored on a phone to unlock a user account on a TV. For Automotive devices, it is not allowed for the escrow token to be stored on any part of the vehicle.
• [C-7-6] MUST inform the user about the security implications before enabling the escrow token to decrypt the data storage.
• [C-7-7] MUST have a fall-back mechanism to use one of the recommended primary authentication methods.
• [C-7-9] The user MUST be challenged for one of the recommended primary authentication (eg: PIN, pattern, password) methods as described in [C-1-7] and [C-1-8] in section 7.3.10 , unless the safety of the user (eg driver distraction) is of concern.
• [C-7-10] MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen and MUST follow the constraints listed in C-8 below.
• [C-7-11] MUST NOT allow TrustAgents on primary personal devices (eg: handheld) to unlock the device, and can only use them to keep an already unlocked device in the unlocked state for up to a maximum of 4 hours. The default implementation of TrustManagerService in AOSP meets this requirement.
• [C-7-12] MUST use a cryptographically secure (eg UKEY2) communication channel to pass the escrow token from the storage device to the target device.

If device implementations add or modify the authentication methods to unlock the lock screen that is not a secure lock screen as described above, and use a new authentication method to unlock the keyguard:

• [C-8-1] The new method MUST be disabled when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the password quality policy via the DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality() method with a more restrictive quality constant than PASSWORD_QUALITY_NONE or via the DevicePolicyManager.setRequiredPasswordComplexity() with a more restrictive complexity constant than 'PASSWORD_COMPLEXITY_NONE'.
• [C-8-2] They MUST NOT reset the password expiration timers set by DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordExpirationTimeout() .
• [C-8-3] They MUST NOT expose an API for use by third-party apps to change the lock state.

If device implementations allow applications to create secondary virtual displays and do not support associated input events, such as via VirtualDeviceManager , they:

• [C-9-1] MUST lock these secondary virtual display(s) when the device's default display is locked, and unlock these secondary virtual display(s) when the device's default display is unlocked.

If device implementations allow applications to create secondary virtual displays and support associated input events, such as via VirtualDeviceManager , they:

• [C-10-1] MUST support separate lock states per virtual device
• [C-10-2] MUST disconnect all virtual devices upon idle timeout
• [C-10-3] MUST have an idle timeout
• [C-10-4] MUST lock all displays when the user initiates a lockdown , including via the lockdown user affordance required for handheld devices (see Section 2.2.5[9.11/H-1-2] )
• [C-10-5] MUST have separate virtual device instances per user

• [C-10-13] MUST not use a virtual device lock state as user authentication authorization with the Android Keystore System. See KeyGenParameterSpec.Builder.setUserAuthentication* .

Start of new requirements for Android 15

When device implementations allow the user to transfer the primary authentication knowledge-factor from a source device to a target device, such as for initial setup of the target device, they:

• [C-11-1] MUST encrypt the knowledge-factor with protection guarantees similar to those described in the Google Cloud Key Vault Service security whitepaper when transferring the knowledge-factor from the source device to the target device such that the knowledge-factor cannot be remotely decrypted or used to remotely unlock either device.
• [C-11-2] MUST, on the source device , ask the user to confirm the knowledge-factor of the source device before transferring the knowledge-factor to the target device.
• [C-11-3] MUST, on a target device lacking any set primary authentication knowledge-factor, ask the user to confirm a transferred knowledge-factor on the target device before setting that knowledge-factor as the primary authentication knowledge-factor for the target device and before making available any data transferred from a source device.

If device implementations have a secure lock screen and include one or more trust agents, which call the TrustAgentService.grantTrust() System API with the FLAG_GRANT_TRUST_TEMPORARY_AND_RENEWABLE flag they:

• [C-12-1] MUST only call grantTrust() with the flag when connected to a proximate physical device with a lockscreen of its own, and when the user has authenticated their identity against that lockscreen. Proximate devices can use on-wrist or on-body detection mechanisms after a one-time user unlock to satisfy the user authentication requirement.
• [C-12-2] MUST put the device implementation into the TrustState.TRUSTABLE state when the screen is turned off (such as via a button press or display time out) and the TrustAgent has not revoked trust. The AOSP satisfies this requirement.
• [C-12-3] MUST only move the device from TrustState.TRUSTABLE to the TrustState.TRUSTED state if the TrustAgent is still granting trust based on the requirements in C-12-1.
• [C-12-4] MUST call TrustManagerService.revokeTrust()
  • After a maximum of 24 hours from granting trust, or
  • After an 8 hour idle window, or
  • If the implementations are not using cryptographically secure and accurate ranging as defined in [C-12-5], when the underlying connection to the proximate physical device is lost.
• [C-12-5] Implementations relying on secure and accurate ranging to meet the requirements of [C-12-4] MUST use one of the following solutions:
  • Implementations using UWB:
    • MUST meet the conformance, certification, accuracy, and calibration requirements for UWB described in 7.4.9 .
    • MUST use one of the P-STS security modes listed in 7.4.9 .
  • Implementations using Wi-Fi Neighborhood Awareness Networking (NAN):

    • MUST use Secure LTF as defined in IEEE 802.11az .

If device implementations allow applications to create secondary virtual displays and support associated input events such as via VirtualDeviceManager and the displays are not marked with VIRTUAL_DISPLAY_FLAG_SECURE, they:

• [C-13-8] MUST block activities with the attribute android:canDisplayOnRemoteDevices or the metadata android.activity.can_display_on_remote_devices set to false from being started on the virtual device.

If device implementations support separate display power states through DeviceStateManager AND support separate display lock states through KeyguardDisplayManager , they:

• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to utilize a credential meeting requirements defined in section 9.11.1 or a Biometric meeting at least Class 1 specifications defined in section 7.3.10 to allow independent unlocking from the default device display.
• [C-SR-3] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to constrain separate display unlock via a defined display timeout.
• [C-SR-4] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to allow user to globally lock all displays through lockdown from primary handheld device.

9.11.2. Сейф

The Android Keystore System allows app developers to store cryptographic keys in a dedicated secure processor as well as the isolated execution environment described above. Such a dedicated secure processor is called "StrongBox". Requirements C-1-3 through C-1-11 below define the requirements a device must meet to qualify as a StrongBox.

Device implementations that have a dedicated secure processor:

• [C-SR-1] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support StrongBox. StrongBox will likely become a requirement in a future release.

If device implementations support StrongBox, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare FEATURE_STRONGBOX_KEYSTORE .

• [C-1-2] MUST provide dedicated secure hardware that is used to back keystore and secure user authentication. The dedicated secure hardware may be used for other purposes as well.

• [C-1-3] MUST have a discrete CPU that shares no cache, DRAM, coprocessors or other core resources with the application processor (AP).

• [C-1-4] MUST ensure that any peripherals shared with the AP cannot alter StrongBox processing in any way, or obtain any information from the StrongBox. The AP MAY disable or block access to StrongBox.

• [C-1-5] MUST have an internal clock with reasonable accuracy (+-10%) that is immune to manipulation by the AP.

• [C-1-6] MUST have a true random number generator that produces uniformly-distributed and unpredictable output.

• [C-1-7] MUST have tamper resistance, including resistance against physical penetration, and glitching.

• [C-1-8] MUST have side-channel resistance, including resistance against leaking information via power, timing, electromagnetic radiation, and thermal radiation side channels.

• [C-1-9] MUST have secure storage which ensures confidentiality, integrity, authenticity, consistency, and freshness of the contents. The storage MUST NOT be able to be read or altered, except as permitted by the StrongBox APIs.

• To validate compliance with [C-1-3] through [C-1-9], device implementations:

• [C-1-11] MUST include the firmware that is evaluated by a nationally accredited testing laboratory incorporating High attack potential vulnerability assessment according to the Common Criteria Application of Attack Potential to Smartcards .
• [C-SR-2] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to include the hardware that is evaluated using a Security Target, Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL) 5, augmented by AVA_VAN.5. EAL 5 certification will likely become a requirement in a future release.
• [C-SR-3] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide insider attack resistance (IAR), which means that an insider with access to firmware signing keys cannot produce firmware that causes the StrongBox to leak secrets, to bypass functional security requirements or otherwise enable access to sensitive user data. The recommended way to implement IAR is to allow firmware updates only when the primary user password is provided via the IAuthSecret HAL.

9.11.3. Identity Credential

The Identity Credential System is defined and achieved by implementing all APIs in the android.security.identity.* package. These APIs allows app developers to store and retrieve user identity documents. Реализации устройства:

• [C-SR-1] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement the Identity Credential System.

If device implementations implement the Identity Credential System, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST return non-null for the IdentityCredentialStore#getInstance() method.

• [C-1-2] MUST implement the Identity Credential System (eg the android.security.identity.* APIs) with code communicating with a trusted application in an area that is securely isolated from the code running on the kernel and above. Secure isolation MUST block all potential mechanisms by which kernel or userspace code might access the internal state of the isolated environment, including DMA.

• [C-1-3] The cryptographic operations needed to implement the Identity Credential System (eg the android.security.identity.* APIs) MUST be performed entirely in the trusted application and private key material MUST never leave the isolated execution environment unless specifically required by higher-level APIs (eg the createEphemeralKeyPair() method).

• [C-1-4] The trusted application MUST be implemented in a way such that its security properties are not affected (eg credential data is not released unless access control conditions are satisfied, MACs can't be produced for arbitrary data) even if Android is misbehaving or compromised.

The upstream Android Open Source Project provides a reference implementation of a trusted application ( libeic ) that can be used to implement the Identity Credential system.

9.12. Data Deletion

All device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST provide users a mechanism to perform a "Factory Data Reset".
• [C-0-2] MUST delete all data on the userdata file system when performing a "Factory Data Reset".
• [C-0-3] MUST delete the data in such a way that will satisfy relevant industry standards such as NIST SP800-88 when performing a "Factory Data Reset".
• [C-0-4] MUST trigger the above "Factory Data Reset" process when the DevicePolicyManager.wipeData() API is called by the primary user's Device Policy Controller app.
• MAY provide a fast data wipe option that conducts only a logical data erase.

9.13. Safe Boot Mode

Android provides Safe Boot Mode, which allows users to boot up into a mode where only preinstalled system apps are allowed to run and all third-party apps are disabled. This mode, known as "Safe Boot Mode", provides the user the capability to uninstall potentially harmful third-party apps.

Device implementations are:

• [C-SR-1] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement Safe Boot Mode.

If device implementations implement Safe Boot Mode, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST provide the user an option to enter Safe Boot Mode in such a way that is uninterruptible from third-party apps installed on the device, except when the third-party app is a Device Policy Controller and has set the UserManager.DISALLOW_SAFE_BOOT flag as true.

• [C-1-2] MUST provide the user the capability to uninstall any third-party apps within Safe Mode.

• SHOULD provide the user an option to enter Safe Boot Mode from the boot menu using a workflow that is different from that of a normal boot.

9.14. Automotive Vehicle System Isolation

Android Automotive devices are expected to exchange data with critical vehicle subsystems by using the vehicle HAL to send and receive messages over vehicle networks such as CAN bus.

The data exchange can be secured by implementing security features below the Android framework layers to prevent malicious or unintentional interaction with these subsystems.

9.15. Subscription Plans

"Subscription plans" refer to the billing relationship plan details provided by a mobile carrier through SubscriptionManager.setSubscriptionPlans() .

All device implementations:

• [C-0-1] MUST return subscription plans only to the mobile carrier app that has originally provided them.
• [C-0-2] MUST NOT remotely back up or upload subscription plans.
• [C-0-3] MUST only allow overrides, such as SubscriptionManager.setSubscriptionOverrideCongested() , from the mobile carrier app currently providing valid subscription plans.

9.16. Application Data Migration

If device implementations include a capability to migrate data from a device to another device and do not limit the application data it copies to what is configured by the application developer in the manifest via android:fullBackupContent attribute, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST NOT initiate transfers of application data from devices on which the user has not set a primary authentication as described in 9.11.1 Secure Lock Screen and Authentication .
• [C-1-2] MUST securely confirm the primary authentication on the source device and confirm with the user intent to copy the data on the source device before any data is transferred.
• [C-1-3] MUST use security key attestation to ensure that both the source device and the target device in the device-to-device migration are legitimate Android devices and have a locked bootloader.
• [C-1-4] MUST only migrate application data to the same application on the target device, with the same package name AND signing certificate.
• [C-1-5] MUST show an indication that the source device has had data migrated by a device-to-device data migration in the settings menu. A user SHOULD NOT be able to remove this indication.

Start of new requirements for Android 15

9.17. Платформа виртуализации Android

10. Software Compatibility Testing

Device implementations MUST pass all tests described in this section. However, note that no software test package is fully comprehensive. For this reason, device implementers are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to make the minimum number of changes as possible to the reference and preferred implementation of Android available from the Android Open Source Project. This will minimize the risk of introducing bugs that create incompatibilities requiring rework and potential device updates.

10.1. Набор тестов совместимости

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST pass the Android Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) available from the Android Open Source Project, using the final shipping software on the device.

• [C-0-2] MUST ensure compatibility in cases of ambiguity in CTS and for any reimplementations of parts of the reference source code.

The CTS is designed to be run on an actual device. Like any software, the CTS may itself contain bugs. The CTS will be versioned independently of this Compatibility Definition, and multiple revisions of the CTS may be released for Android 15.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-3] MUST pass the latest CTS version available at the time the device software is completed.

• SHOULD use the reference implementation in the Android Open Source tree as much as possible.

10.2. CTS-верификатор

The CTS Verifier is included with the Compatibility Test Suite, and is intended to be run by a human operator to test functionality that cannot be tested by an automated system, such as correct functioning of a camera and sensors.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-1] MUST correctly execute all applicable cases in the CTS verifier.

The CTS Verifier has tests for many kinds of hardware, including some hardware that is optional.

Реализации устройства:

• [C-0-2] MUST pass all tests for hardware that they possess; for instance, if a device possesses an accelerometer, it MUST correctly execute the Accelerometer test case in the CTS Verifier.

Test cases for features noted as optional by this Compatibility Definition Document MAY be skipped or omitted.

• [C-0-2] Every device and every build MUST correctly run the CTS Verifier, as noted above. However, since many builds are very similar, device implementers are not expected to explicitly run the CTS Verifier on builds that differ only in trivial ways. Specifically, device implementations that differ from an implementation that has passed the CTS Verifier only by the set of included locales, branding, etc. MAY omit the CTS Verifier test.

11. Updatable Software

• [C-0-1] Device implementations MUST include a mechanism to replace the entirety of the system software. The mechanism need not perform "live" upgrades—that is, a device restart MAY be required. Any method can be used, provided that it can replace the entirety of the software preinstalled on the device. For instance, any of the following approaches will satisfy this requirement:

  • "Over-the-air (OTA)" downloads with offline update via reboot.
  • "Tethered" updates over USB from a host PC.
  • "Offline" updates via a reboot and update from a file on removable storage.

• [C-0-2] The update mechanism used MUST support updates without wiping user data. That is, the update mechanism MUST preserve application private data and application shared data. Note that the upstream Android software includes an update mechanism that satisfies this requirement.

• [C-0-3] The entire update MUST be signed and the on-device update mechanism MUST verify the update and signature against a public key stored on device.

• [C-SR-1] The signing mechanism is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to hash the update with SHA-256 and validate the hash against the public key using ECDSA NIST P-256.

If the device implementations includes support for an unmetered data connection such as 802.11 or Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network) profile, then, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST support OTA downloads with offline update via reboot.

Device implementations SHOULD verify that the system image is binary identical to the expected result following an OTA. The block-based OTA implementation in the upstream Android Open Source Project, added since Android 5.1, satisfies this requirement.

Also, device implementations SHOULD support A/B system updates . The AOSP implements this feature using the boot control HAL.

If an error is found in a device implementation after it has been released but within its reasonable product lifetime that is determined in consultation with the Android Compatibility Team to affect the compatibility of third-party applications, then:

• [C-2-1] The device implementer MUST correct the error via a software update available that can be applied per the mechanism just described.

Android includes features that allow the Device Owner app (if present) to control the installation of system updates. If the system update subsystem for devices report android.software.device_admin then, they:

• [C-3-1] MUST implement the behavior described in the SystemUpdatePolicy class.
