1. معرفی

این سند شرایطی را که باید برای سازگاری دستگاه‌ها با Android 7.0 رعایت شود، برشمرده است.

استفاده از "باید"، "نباید"، "لازم"، "باید"، "نباید"، "باید"، "نباید"، "توصیه شده"، "ممکن است" و "اختیاری" طبق IETF است. استاندارد تعریف شده در RFC2119 .

همانطور که در این سند استفاده می‌شود، «پیاده‌کننده دستگاه» یا «اجراکننده» شخص یا سازمانی است که راه‌حل سخت‌افزار/نرم‌افزاری را با Android 7.0 توسعه می‌دهد. "پیاده سازی دستگاه" یا "پیاده سازی راه حل سخت افزاری/نرم افزاری است که به این شکل توسعه یافته است.

برای اینکه پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه با Android 7.0 سازگار در نظر گرفته شوند، باید الزامات ارائه‌شده در این تعریف سازگاری، از جمله هر سندی که از طریق مرجع گنجانده شده‌اند، داشته باشند.

در مواردی که این تعریف یا تست‌های نرم‌افزاری توضیح داده شده در بخش 10 بی‌صدا، مبهم یا ناقص باشد، این مسئولیت اجرای دستگاه است که از سازگاری با پیاده‌سازی‌های موجود اطمینان حاصل کند.

به همین دلیل، پروژه متن باز اندروید هم مرجع و هم پیاده سازی ترجیحی اندروید است. به اجراکنندگان دستگاه اکیداً توصیه می‌شود که پیاده‌سازی‌های خود را تا حد امکان بر اساس کد منبع «بالادست» موجود در پروژه منبع باز Android قرار دهند. در حالی که برخی از مؤلفه‌ها می‌توانند به صورت فرضی با پیاده‌سازی‌های جایگزین جایگزین شوند، اکیداً توصیه می‌شود که از این رویه پیروی نکنید، زیرا گذراندن آزمون‌های نرم‌افزار به طور قابل‌توجهی دشوارتر می‌شود. این مسئولیت پیاده‌کننده است که از سازگاری کامل رفتاری با پیاده‌سازی استاندارد Android، از جمله و فراتر از مجموعه تست سازگاری اطمینان حاصل کند. در نهایت، توجه داشته باشید که تعویض و اصلاح برخی از اجزا به صراحت توسط این سند ممنوع است.

بسیاری از منابع مرتبط با این سند به طور مستقیم یا غیرمستقیم از Android SDK مشتق شده اند و از نظر عملکردی با اطلاعات موجود در اسناد آن SDK یکسان خواهند بود. در هر موردی که این تعریف سازگاری یا مجموعه تست سازگاری با مستندات SDK مخالف باشد، اسناد SDK معتبر تلقی می‌شوند. هر گونه جزئیات فنی ارائه شده در منابع مرتبط در سراسر این سند با گنجاندن بخشی از این تعریف سازگاری در نظر گرفته می شود.

2. انواع دستگاه

در حالی که پروژه منبع باز اندروید در اجرای انواع مختلف دستگاه ها و فاکتورهای شکلی استفاده شده است، بسیاری از جنبه های معماری و الزامات سازگاری برای دستگاه های دستی بهینه شده است. با شروع از Android 5.0، پروژه منبع باز Android با هدف دربرگرفتن انواع گسترده تری از انواع دستگاه ها همانطور که در این بخش توضیح داده شده است.

دستگاه Android Handheld به یک پیاده سازی دستگاه اندرویدی اشاره دارد که معمولاً با نگه داشتن آن در دست استفاده می شود، مانند پخش کننده های mp3، تلفن ها و تبلت ها. پیاده سازی دستگاه دستی اندروید:

• باید یک صفحه نمایش لمسی در دستگاه تعبیه شده باشد.
• باید منبع تغذیه ای داشته باشد که تحرک را فراهم کند، مانند باتری.

دستگاه Android Television به یک پیاده‌سازی دستگاه Android اشاره دارد که یک رابط سرگرمی برای مصرف رسانه‌های دیجیتال، فیلم‌ها، بازی‌ها، برنامه‌ها و/یا تلویزیون زنده برای کاربرانی است که حدود ده فوت دورتر می‌نشینند (یک رابط کاربری 10 فوتی) ”). دستگاه های تلویزیون اندروید:

• باید صفحه نمایش تعبیه شده داشته باشد یا دارای درگاه خروجی ویدیو مانند VGA، HDMI یا یک درگاه بی سیم برای نمایش باشد.
• باید ویژگی های android.software.leanback و android.hardware.type.television را اعلام کند.

دستگاه Android Watch به یک پیاده سازی دستگاه اندرویدی اشاره دارد که برای پوشیدن روی بدن، شاید روی مچ، و:

• باید صفحه نمایشی با طول مورب فیزیکی در محدوده 1.1 تا 2.5 اینچ داشته باشد.
• باید ویژگی android.hardware.type.watch را اعلام کند.
• باید از uiMode = UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH پشتیبانی کند.

پیاده‌سازی Android Automotive به یک واحد اصلی خودرو اشاره دارد که Android را به عنوان یک سیستم عامل برای بخشی یا تمام سیستم و/یا عملکرد اطلاعات سرگرمی اجرا می‌کند. پیاده سازی Android Automotive:

• باید صفحه نمایشی با طول مورب فیزیکی برابر یا بیشتر از 6 اینچ داشته باشد.
• باید ویژگی android.hardware.type.automotive را اعلام کند.
• باید از uiMode = UI_MODE_TYPE_CAR پشتیبانی کند.
• اجرای Android Automotive باید از همه APIهای عمومی در فضای نام android.car.* پشتیبانی کند.

همه پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه Android که در هیچ یک از انواع دستگاه‌های بالا قرار نمی‌گیرند، برای سازگاری با Android 7.0 باید همه الزامات موجود در این سند را برآورده کنند، مگر اینکه این شرط به صراحت توضیح داده شده باشد که فقط برای یک نوع دستگاه Android خاص از بالا قابل اجرا است.

2.1 تنظیمات دستگاه

این خلاصه ای از تفاوت های عمده در پیکربندی سخت افزار بر اساس نوع دستگاه است. (سلول های خالی نشان دهنده "مه" هستند). همه تنظیمات در این جدول پوشش داده نشده است. برای جزئیات بیشتر به بخش های سخت افزار مربوطه مراجعه کنید.

3. نرم افزار

3.1. سازگاری API مدیریت شده

محیط اجرای بایت کد Dalvik مدیریت شده وسیله اولیه برای برنامه های اندروید است. رابط برنامه نویسی برنامه اندروید (API) مجموعه ای از واسط های پلتفرم اندروید است که در معرض برنامه هایی است که در محیط زمان اجرا مدیریت شده اجرا می شوند. پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه باید پیاده‌سازی کامل، از جمله همه رفتارهای مستند، هر API مستندی که توسط Android SDK یا هر API تزئین شده با نشانگر «@SystemApi» در کد منبع بالادستی آندروید در معرض نمایش است، ارائه دهد.

پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه باید از تمام کلاس‌ها، روش‌ها و عناصر مرتبط مشخص‌شده با حاشیه‌نویسی TestApi (TestApi@) پشتیبانی/حفظ کنند.

پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه نباید هیچ‌یک از APIهای مدیریت‌شده را حذف کنند، رابط‌ها یا امضاهای API را تغییر دهند، از رفتار مستند منحرف شوند، یا شامل موارد بدون عملیات باشند، مگر در مواردی که به‌طور خاص توسط این تعریف سازگاری مجاز است.

این تعریف سازگاری اجازه می‌دهد برخی از انواع سخت‌افزاری که Android برای آن‌ها دارای API است توسط پیاده‌سازی دستگاه حذف شوند. در چنین مواردی، APIها باید همچنان وجود داشته باشند و به روشی معقول رفتار کنند. برای الزامات خاص برای این سناریو به بخش 7 مراجعه کنید.

3.1.1. برنامه های افزودنی اندروید

Android شامل پشتیبانی از گسترش APIهای مدیریت شده در حالی که همان نسخه سطح API را حفظ می کند. پیاده‌سازی دستگاه Android باید اجرای AOSP کتابخانه مشترک ExtShared و خدمات ExtServices را با نسخه‌های بالاتر یا مساوی حداقل نسخه‌های مجاز در هر سطح API از قبل بارگیری کند. به عنوان مثال، پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه Android 7.0 با اجرای API سطح 24 باید حداقل شامل نسخه 1 باشد.

3.2. سازگاری نرم افزار API

علاوه بر APIهای مدیریت شده از بخش 3.1 ، Android همچنین شامل یک API "نرم" فقط زمان اجرا قابل توجه است، به شکل مواردی مانند intent ها، مجوزها، و جنبه های مشابه برنامه های Android که در زمان کامپایل برنامه قابل اجرا نیستند.

3.2.1. مجوزها

پیاده‌کننده‌های دستگاه باید تمام ثابت‌های مجوز را همانطور که در صفحه مرجع مجوز مستند شده است، پشتیبانی و اجرا کنند. توجه داشته باشید که بخش 9 الزامات اضافی مربوط به مدل امنیتی اندروید را فهرست می کند.

3.2.2. ساخت پارامترها

APIهای Android شامل تعدادی ثابت در کلاس android.os.Build هستند که برای توصیف دستگاه فعلی در نظر گرفته شده است. برای ارائه مقادیر معنادار و منسجم در بین پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه، جدول زیر شامل محدودیت‌های اضافی در قالب‌های این مقادیر است که پیاده‌سازی دستگاه باید با آنها مطابقت داشته باشد.

3.2.3. سازگاری قصد

3.2.3.1. اهداف اصلی برنامه

اهداف Android به اجزای برنامه اجازه می دهد تا عملکرد را از سایر اجزای Android درخواست کنند. پروژه بالادستی اندروید شامل لیستی از برنامه‌های کاربردی است که برنامه‌های اصلی اندروید در نظر گرفته می‌شوند که چندین الگوی هدف را برای انجام اقدامات رایج پیاده‌سازی می‌کنند. برنامه های اصلی اندروید عبارتند از:

• ساعت رومیزی
• مرورگر
• تقویم
• مخاطب
• آلبوم عکس
• جستجوی جهانی
• پرتاب کننده
• موسیقی
• تنظیمات

پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه باید شامل برنامه‌های اصلی Android به‌عنوان مناسب یا مؤلفه‌ای باشد که الگوهای هدف یکسانی را که توسط همه مؤلفه‌های Activity یا Service این برنامه‌های اصلی Android در معرض سایر برنامه‌ها قرار دارند، به طور ضمنی یا صریح، از طریق ویژگی android:exported پیاده‌سازی کند.

3.2.3.2. تفکیک قصد

از آنجایی که Android یک پلتفرم توسعه‌پذیر است، پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه باید اجازه دهند هر الگوی قصد اشاره‌شده در بخش 3.2.3.1 توسط برنامه‌های شخص ثالث لغو شود. اجرای متن باز اندروید بالادستی به طور پیش فرض این امکان را می دهد. پیاده‌کننده‌های دستگاه نباید امتیازات ویژه‌ای را به استفاده برنامه‌های سیستمی از این الگوهای هدف ضمیمه کنند، یا مانع از اتصال برنامه‌های شخص ثالث به این الگوها و کنترل آن‌ها شوند. این ممنوعیت به‌طور خاص شامل غیرفعال کردن رابط کاربری «انتخاب کننده» است که به کاربر اجازه می‌دهد بین چند برنامه‌ای که همگی الگوی هدف یکسانی دارند، انتخاب کند.

پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه باید یک رابط کاربری برای کاربران فراهم کنند تا فعالیت پیش‌فرض را برای intent تغییر دهند.

با این حال، پیاده‌سازی دستگاه ممکن است فعالیت‌های پیش‌فرض را برای الگوهای URI خاص (به‌عنوان مثال http://play.google.com) ارائه دهد، زمانی که فعالیت پیش‌فرض ویژگی خاصی را برای URI داده ارائه می‌کند. به عنوان مثال، یک الگوی فیلتر هدف که URI داده "http://www.android.com" را مشخص می کند، از الگوی هدف اصلی مرورگر برای "http://" خاص تر است.

Android همچنین دارای مکانیزمی برای برنامه‌های شخص ثالث است تا رفتار پیوند دادن برنامه پیش‌فرض معتبر را برای انواع خاصی از اهداف URI وب اعلام کنند. وقتی چنین اعلان‌های معتبری در الگوهای فیلتر قصد برنامه تعریف می‌شوند، پیاده‌سازی دستگاه:

• باید با انجام مراحل تأیید اعتبار تعریف شده در مشخصات پیوندهای دارایی دیجیتال همانطور که توسط Package Manager در پروژه منبع باز Android بالادستی پیاده سازی شده است، سعی کنید فیلترهای هدف را تأیید کنید.
• باید سعی کنید فیلترهای هدف را در طول نصب برنامه تأیید اعتبار کنید و همه فیلترهای هدف UIR تأیید شده با موفقیت را به عنوان کنترل کننده برنامه های پیش فرض برای UIR آنها تنظیم کنید.
• ممکن است فیلترهای هدف URI خاص را به عنوان کنترل‌کننده برنامه پیش‌فرض برای URI‌هایشان تنظیم کند، در صورتی که با موفقیت تأیید شوند اما سایر فیلترهای URI کاندید تأیید نشوند. اگر پیاده‌سازی دستگاهی این کار را انجام دهد، باید در منوی تنظیمات، الگوی هر URI مناسب را به کاربر ارائه دهد.
• باید کنترل‌های پیوندهای برنامه هر برنامه را در تنظیمات به شرح زیر در اختیار کاربر قرار دهد:
  • کاربر باید بتواند به طور کلی رفتار پیوندهای برنامه پیش‌فرض را لغو کند تا یک برنامه باشد: همیشه باز، همیشه بپرسید یا هرگز باز نشود، که باید برای همه فیلترهای هدف URI نامزد به طور یکسان اعمال شود.
  • کاربر باید بتواند لیستی از فیلترهای هدف URI کاندید را ببیند.
  • پیاده‌سازی دستگاه ممکن است به کاربر این امکان را بدهد که فیلترهای هدف URI کاندید خاصی را که با موفقیت تأیید شده‌اند، بر اساس فیلتر هر قصد لغو کند.
  • اگر پیاده‌سازی دستگاه اجازه می‌دهد برخی از فیلترهای هدف URI کاندید تأیید شوند، در حالی که برخی دیگر ممکن است شکست بخورند، پیاده‌سازی دستگاه باید به کاربران امکان مشاهده و نادیده گرفتن فیلترهای هدف URI خاص را بدهد.

3.2.3.3. Intent Namespaces

پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه نباید شامل هیچ مؤلفه Android باشد که با استفاده از ACTION، CATEGORY یا سایر رشته‌های کلیدی در اندروید، به هر هدف جدید یا الگوهای هدف پخشی احترام می‌گذارد. یا com.android. فضای نام پیاده‌کننده‌های دستگاه نباید دارای اجزای Android باشند که با استفاده از ACTION، CATEGORY یا سایر رشته‌های کلیدی در فضای بسته متعلق به سازمانی دیگر، از هر هدف جدید یا الگوهای هدف پخش شده استفاده کنند. پیاده‌کننده‌های دستگاه نباید هیچ یک از الگوهای هدف مورد استفاده توسط برنامه‌های اصلی فهرست شده در بخش 3.2.3.1 را تغییر دهند یا گسترش دهند. پیاده سازی دستگاه ممکن است شامل الگوهای هدف با استفاده از فضاهای نام به وضوح و آشکارا با سازمان خود باشد. این ممنوعیت مشابه آن چیزی است که برای کلاس های زبان جاوا در بخش 3.6 مشخص شده است.

3.2.3.4. اهداف پخش

برنامه های شخص ثالث برای پخش مقاصد خاصی به پلتفرم متکی هستند تا تغییرات در محیط سخت افزاری یا نرم افزاری را به آنها اطلاع دهند. دستگاه های سازگار با Android باید در پاسخ به رویدادهای سیستم مناسب، اهداف پخش عمومی را پخش کنند. اهداف پخش در مستندات SDK توضیح داده شده است.

3.2.3.5. تنظیمات پیش فرض برنامه

Android شامل تنظیماتی است که به کاربران راهی آسان برای انتخاب برنامه های پیش فرض خود، به عنوان مثال برای صفحه اصلی یا پیامک، ارائه می دهد. در مواردی که منطقی است، پیاده‌سازی دستگاه باید منوی تنظیمات مشابهی را ارائه دهد و با الگوی فیلتر هدف و روش‌های API که در مستندات SDK به شرح زیر توضیح داده شده است، سازگار باشد.

پیاده سازی دستگاه:

• اگر پیاده‌سازی دستگاه android.software.home_screen را گزارش کند، باید به قصد android.settings.HOME_SETTINGS برای نمایش منوی تنظیمات پیش‌فرض برنامه برای صفحه اصلی احترام بگذارد.
• باید یک منوی تنظیمات ارائه دهد که android.provider.Telephony.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT را فراخوانی کند تا گفتگویی را برای تغییر برنامه پیش‌فرض SMS نمایش دهد، در صورتی که اجرای دستگاه android.hardware.telephony را گزارش کند.
• اگر پیاده‌سازی دستگاه android.hardware.nfc.hce را گزارش کند، باید به قصد android.settings.NFC_PAYMENT_SETTINGS برای نمایش منوی تنظیمات پیش‌فرض برنامه برای Tap and Pay احترام بگذارد.
• اگر پیاده‌سازی دستگاه android.hardware.telephony را گزارش می‌دهد، باید به قصد android.telecom.action.CHANGE_DEFAULT_DIALER احترام بگذارد تا گفتگویی را نشان دهد تا کاربر بتواند برنامه پیش‌فرض تلفن را تغییر دهد.

3.3. سازگاری Native API

سازگاری کد بومی چالش برانگیز است. به همین دلیل، به اجراکنندگان دستگاه اکیداً توصیه می‌شود از پیاده‌سازی‌های کتابخانه‌های فهرست‌شده در زیر از پروژه منبع باز Android بالادستی استفاده کنند.

3.3.1. رابط های باینری برنامه

بایت کد Dalvik مدیریت شده می تواند به کد بومی ارائه شده در فایل apk برنامه به عنوان یک فایل ELF .so که برای معماری سخت افزاری مناسب دستگاه کامپایل شده است، فراخوانی کند. از آنجایی که کد بومی به شدت به فناوری پردازنده اصلی وابسته است، اندروید تعدادی رابط باینری برنامه (ABI) را در Android NDK تعریف می‌کند. پیاده‌سازی دستگاه باید با یک یا چند ABI تعریف‌شده سازگار باشد، و باید مطابق زیر با Android NDK سازگاری داشته باشد.

اگر پیاده سازی دستگاه شامل پشتیبانی از Android ABI باشد، این موارد:

• باید شامل پشتیبانی از کدهای در حال اجرا در محیط مدیریت شده برای فراخوانی کد بومی، با استفاده از معناشناسی استاندارد Java Native Interface (JNI) باشد.
• باید با منبع سازگار (یعنی سازگار با هدر) و سازگار با دودویی (برای ABI) با هر کتابخانه مورد نیاز در لیست زیر باشد.
• اگر ABI 64 بیتی پشتیبانی می شود، باید از ABI معادل 32 بیت پشتیبانی کند.
• باید به طور دقیق رابط باینری برنامه (ABI) پشتیبانی شده توسط دستگاه را از طریق پارامترهای android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_ABIS، android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_32_BIT_ABIS، android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_64_BIT_ABIS گزارش کند، هر کدام یک لیست از کاما جدا شده است. ABI ها از بیشترین تا کمترین ترجیح سفارش داده شدند.
• باید از طریق پارامترهای فوق، فقط آن دسته از ABI‌هایی را گزارش کند که در آخرین نسخه مستندات مدیریت Android NDK ABI مستند و شرح داده شده‌اند، و باید شامل پشتیبانی از برنامه افزودنی پیشرفته SIMD (معروف به NEON) باشد.
• باید با استفاده از کد منبع و فایل‌های سرصفحه موجود در پروژه منبع باز اندروید بالادست ساخته شود

توجه داشته باشید که نسخه‌های بعدی Android NDK ممکن است از ABI‌های اضافی پشتیبانی کند. اگر پیاده‌سازی دستگاه با ABI از پیش تعریف‌شده موجود سازگار نباشد، اصلاً نباید پشتیبانی از هیچ ABI را گزارش کند.

APIهای کد اصلی زیر باید برای برنامه‌هایی که شامل کد بومی هستند در دسترس باشند:

• libandroid.so (پشتیبانی از فعالیت های Android بومی)
• libc (کتابخانه C)
• libcamera2ndk.so
• libdl (پیوند دهنده پویا)
• libEGL.so (مدیریت سطح OpenGL بومی)
• 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 (لاگ اندروید)
• libmediandk.so (پشتیبانی از APIهای رسانه بومی)
• libm (کتابخانه ریاضی)
• libOpenMAXAL.so (پشتیبانی از OpenMAX AL 1.0.1)
• libOpenSLES.so (پشتیبانی صوتی OpenSL ES 1.0.1)
• libRS.so
• libstdc++ (حداقل پشتیبانی از C++)
• libvulkan.so (ولکان)
• libz (فشرده سازی Zlib)
• رابط JNI
• پشتیبانی از OpenGL، همانطور که در زیر توضیح داده شده است

برای کتابخانه های بومی فهرست شده در بالا، پیاده سازی دستگاه نباید توابع عمومی را اضافه یا حذف کند.

کتابخانه‌های بومی که در بالا ذکر نشده‌اند اما در AOSP پیاده‌سازی و ارائه شده‌اند، زیرا کتابخانه‌های سیستم رزرو شده‌اند و نباید در معرض برنامه‌های شخص ثالثی قرار گیرند که سطح API 24 یا بالاتر را هدف قرار می‌دهند.

پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه ممکن است کتابخانه‌های غیر AOSP اضافه کنند و آنها را مستقیماً به عنوان یک API در معرض برنامه‌های شخص ثالث قرار دهند، اما کتابخانه‌های اضافی باید در /vendor/lib یا /vendor/lib64 باشند و باید در /vendor/etc/public.libraries.txt

توجه داشته باشید که پیاده سازی های دستگاه باید شامل libGLESv3.so باشد و به نوبه خود، باید تمام نمادهای تابع OpenGL ES 3.1 و بسته برنامه افزودنی Android را همانطور که در نسخه NDK android-24 تعریف شده است صادر کند. اگرچه همه نمادها باید وجود داشته باشند، فقط عملکردهای مربوط به نسخه‌های OpenGL ES و برنامه‌های افزودنی که واقعاً توسط دستگاه پشتیبانی می‌شوند باید به طور کامل اجرا شوند.

3.3.1.1. کتابخانه های گرافیکی

Vulkan یک API کم سربار و چند پلتفرمی برای گرافیک سه بعدی با کارایی بالا است. پیاده سازی دستگاه، حتی اگر شامل پشتیبانی از API های Vulkan نباشد، باید شرایط زیر را برآورده کند:

• باید همیشه یک کتابخانه بومی به نام libvulkan.so ارائه کند که نمادهای تابع را برای هسته Vulkan 1.0 API و همچنین افزونه‌های VK_KHR_surface ، VK_KHR_android_surface و VK_KHR_swapchain صادر کند.

پیاده سازی های دستگاه، اگر شامل پشتیبانی از API های Vulkan باشد:

• باید یک یا چند VkPhysicalDevices از طریق تماس vkEnumeratePhysicalDevices گزارش کند.
• هر دستگاه VkPhysicalDevices باید به طور کامل API Vulkan 1.0 را پیاده سازی کند.
• باید پرچم‌های ویژگی PackageManager#FEATURE_VULKAN_HARDWARE_LEVEL و PackageManager#FEATURE_VULKAN_HARDWARE_VERSION صحیح را گزارش کند.
• باید لایه‌های موجود در کتابخانه‌های بومی با نام libVkLayer*.so را در فهرست راهنمای کتابخانه بومی بسته برنامه، از طریق توابع vkEnumerateInstanceLayerProperties و vkEnumerateDeviceLayerProperties در libvulkan.so برشمرد.
• نباید لایه های ارائه شده توسط کتابخانه های خارج از بسته برنامه را برشمرد، یا راه های دیگری برای ردیابی یا رهگیری Vulkan API ارائه کند، مگر اینکه برنامه دارای ویژگی android:debuggable=”true” باشد.

پیاده سازی های دستگاه، اگر شامل پشتیبانی از API های Vulkan نباشد:

• باید 0 VkPhysicalDevices از طریق تماس vkEnumeratePhysicalDevices گزارش کنید.
• نباید هیچ یک از پرچم‌های ویژگی Vulkan PackageManager#FEATURE_VULKAN_HARDWARE_LEVEL و PackageManager#FEATURE_VULKAN_HARDWARE_VERSION را اعلام کرد.

3.3.2. سازگاری با کد اصلی ARM 32 بیتی

معماری ARMv8 چندین عملیات CPU را منسوخ می‌کند، از جمله برخی عملیات‌های مورد استفاده در کد اصلی موجود. در دستگاه‌های ARM 64 بیتی، عملیات منسوخ شده زیر باید برای کدهای ARM بومی 32 بیتی، از طریق پشتیبانی از CPU بومی یا از طریق شبیه‌سازی نرم‌افزار، در دسترس باقی بماند:

• دستورالعمل های SWP و SWPB
• SETEND دستورالعمل
• عملیات مانع CP15ISB، CP15DSB و CP15DMB

نسخه‌های قدیمی Android NDK از /proc/cpuinfo برای کشف ویژگی‌های CPU از کد اصلی ARM 32 بیتی استفاده کردند. برای سازگاری با برنامه‌هایی که با استفاده از این NDK ساخته شده‌اند، دستگاه‌ها باید خطوط زیر را در /proc/cpuinfo هنگام خواندن توسط برنامه‌های ARM 32 بیتی داشته باشند:

• "ویژگی ها: "، به دنبال آن لیستی از هر ویژگی اختیاری CPU ARMv7 که توسط دستگاه پشتیبانی می شود.
• "معماری CPU: "، به دنبال آن یک عدد صحیح که بالاترین معماری ARM پشتیبانی شده دستگاه را توصیف می کند (به عنوان مثال، "8" برای دستگاه های ARMv8).

این الزامات فقط زمانی اعمال می شود که /proc/cpuinfo توسط برنامه های ARM 32 بیتی خوانده شود. هنگام خواندن توسط برنامه های ARM 64 بیتی یا غیرARM، دستگاه ها نباید /proc/cpuinfo را تغییر دهند.

3.4. سازگاری وب

3.4.1. سازگاری WebView

ویژگی پلتفرم android.software.webview باید در هر دستگاهی که اجرای کاملی از android.webkit.WebView API را ارائه می دهد گزارش شود، و نباید در دستگاه های بدون اجرای کامل API گزارش شود. اجرای متن باز Android از کد پروژه Chromium برای پیاده سازی android.webkit.WebView استفاده می کند. از آنجایی که امکان توسعه یک مجموعه آزمایشی جامع برای یک سیستم رندر وب وجود ندارد، پیاده‌کنندگان دستگاه باید از ساخت بالادستی خاص Chromium در پیاده‌سازی WebView استفاده کنند. به طور مشخص:

• پیاده‌سازی‌های دستگاه android.webkit.WebView باید بر اساس ساخت Chromium از پروژه منبع باز Android بالادستی برای Android 7.0 باشد. این ساخت شامل مجموعه خاصی از عملکردها و اصلاحات امنیتی برای WebView است.

• رشته عامل کاربر گزارش شده توسط WebView باید در این قالب باشد:

  Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android $(VERSION); $(MODEL) Build/$(BUILD); wv) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML، مانند Gecko) نسخه/4.0 $ (CHROMIUM_VER) Mobile Safari/537.36

  • مقدار رشته $(VERSION) باید با مقدار android.os.Build.VERSION.RELEASE یکسان باشد.
  • مقدار رشته $(MODEL) باید با مقدار android.os.Build.MODEL یکسان باشد.
  • مقدار رشته $(BUILD) باید با مقدار android.os.Build.ID یکسان باشد.
  • مقدار رشته $(CHROMIUM_VER) باید نسخه Chromium در پروژه منبع باز Android بالادستی باشد.
  • پیاده سازی دستگاه ممکن است Mobile را در رشته عامل کاربر حذف کند.

مؤلفه WebView باید تا حد امکان از ویژگی های HTML5 پشتیبانی کند و اگر از ویژگی پشتیبانی می کند باید با مشخصات HTML5 مطابقت داشته باشد.

3.4.2. سازگاری مرورگر

ممکن است مرورگر مستقل مبتنی بر فناوری مرورگری غیر از WebKit باشد. با این حال ، حتی اگر از یک برنامه مرورگر جایگزین استفاده شود ، مؤلفه Android.webkit.webview ارائه شده به برنامه های شخص ثالث باید مبتنی بر WebKit باشد ، همانطور که در بخش 3.4.1 توضیح داده شده است.

پیاده سازی ها ممکن است یک رشته عامل کاربر سفارشی را در برنامه مرورگر مستقل حمل کنند.

برنامه مرورگر مستقل (چه بر اساس برنامه مرورگر WebKit بالادست و یا جایگزینی شخص ثالث) باید شامل پشتیبانی از حد ممکن HTML5 باشد. حداقل ، اجرای دستگاه باید از هر یک از این API های مرتبط با HTML5 پشتیبانی کند:

• حافظه پنهان/عملکرد آفلاین
• <pideo> برچسب
• موقعیت جغرافیایی

علاوه بر این ، اجرای دستگاه باید از API HTML5/W3C WebStorage API پشتیبانی کند و باید از API HTML5/W3C IndexedDB پشتیبانی کند. توجه داشته باشید که از آنجا که بدنهای توسعه وب در حال انتقال به نفع IndexedDB از طریق وب سایت هستند ، انتظار می رود IndexedDB در نسخه بعدی Android به یک مؤلفه مورد نیاز تبدیل شود.

3.5. سازگاری رفتاری API

رفتارهای هر یک از انواع API (مدیریت شده ، نرم ، بومی و وب) باید با اجرای ارجح پروژه منبع باز اندرویدی بالادست سازگار باشد. برخی از مناطق خاص سازگاری عبارتند از:

• دستگاه ها نباید رفتار یا معنایی یک هدف استاندارد را تغییر دهند.
• دستگاه ها نباید چرخه حیات یا چرخه حیات را از یک نوع خاص از مؤلفه سیستم (مانند سرویس ، فعالیت ، محتوای محتوای و غیره) تغییر دهند.
• دستگاه ها نباید معانی یک مجوز استاندارد را تغییر دهند.

لیست فوق جامع نیست. مجموعه تست سازگاری (CTS) بخش های قابل توجهی از سکوی سازگاری رفتاری را آزمایش می کند ، اما همه آنها نیست. این وظیفه مجری است که از سازگاری رفتاری با پروژه منبع باز اندروید اطمینان حاصل کند. به همین دلیل ، مجریان دستگاه باید از کد منبع موجود از طریق پروژه منبع باز اندروید در صورت امکان استفاده کنند ، نه اینکه مجدداً بخش های قابل توجهی از سیستم را اجرا کنند.

3.6. نام های نام API

Android از کنوانسیون های فضای بسته بندی و کلاس تعریف شده توسط زبان برنامه نویسی جاوا پیروی می کند. برای اطمینان از سازگاری با برنامه های شخص ثالث ، مجریان دستگاه نباید هیچ گونه اصلاح ممنوعه ای (به زیر مراجعه کنید) در این قسمت های نام بسته بندی کنید:

• جاوا.*
• جاواکس.*
• آفتاب.*
• اندروید.*
• com.android.*

اصلاحات ممنوع شامل موارد زیر است :

• اجرای دستگاه نباید با تغییر هر روش یا امضاهای کلاس یا با حذف کلاس ها یا زمینه های کلاس ، API های عمومی را در پلت فرم Android تغییر دهد.
• مجریان دستگاه ممکن است اجرای اصلی API ها را تغییر دهند ، اما چنین اصلاحاتی نباید بر رفتار بیان شده و امضای زبان جاوا از هر API در معرض عموم تأثیر بگذارد.
• مجریان دستگاه نباید هیچ عناصر در معرض عموم (مانند کلاس ها یا رابط ها ، یا زمینه ها یا روش ها را به کلاس ها یا رابط های موجود) به API های فوق اضافه کنند.

"عنصر در معرض عموم" هر ساختاری است که با نشانگر "hide" تزئین نشده است که در کد منبع بالادست اندرویدی استفاده می شود. به عبارت دیگر ، مجریان دستگاه نباید API های جدید را در معرض نمایش قرار دهند یا API های موجود را در نام های نام های ذکر شده در بالا تغییر دهند. مجریان دستگاه ممکن است اصلاحات داخلی را ایجاد کنند ، اما این تغییرات نباید تبلیغ شوند یا در غیر این صورت در معرض توسعه دهندگان قرار بگیرند.

مجریان دستگاه ممکن است API های سفارشی را اضافه کنند ، اما هر نوع API نباید در فضای نام متعلق به یا به سازمان دیگری باشد. به عنوان مثال ، مجریان دستگاه نباید API را به Com.Google اضافه کنند.* یا فضای نام مشابه: فقط Google ممکن است این کار را انجام دهد. به همین ترتیب ، Google نباید API را به فضای نام شرکت های دیگر اضافه کند. علاوه بر این ، اگر اجرای دستگاه شامل API های سفارشی در خارج از فضای نام استاندارد Android باشد ، آن API ها باید در یک کتابخانه مشترک Android بسته بندی شوند تا فقط برنامه هایی که صریحاً از آنها استفاده می کنند (از طریق مکانیسم <sups-library>) تحت تأثیر افزایش استفاده از حافظه قرار می گیرند. از چنین API

اگر یک مجری دستگاه پیشنهاد می کند یکی از فضای نام بسته های بالا را بهبود ببخشد (مانند اضافه کردن عملکرد جدید مفید به یک API موجود یا اضافه کردن API جدید) ، مجری باید از Source.android.com بازدید کند و روند کمک به تغییرات و تغییرات را آغاز کند. کد ، با توجه به اطلاعات موجود در آن سایت.

توجه داشته باشید که محدودیت های فوق با کنوانسیون های استاندارد برای نامگذاری API ها در زبان برنامه نویسی جاوا مطابقت دارد. این بخش به سادگی با هدف تقویت آن کنوانسیون ها و اتصال آنها از طریق گنجاندن در این تعریف سازگاری انجام می شود.

3.7. سازگاری زمان اجرا

اجرای دستگاه باید از فرمت کامل اجرایی Dalvik (DEX) و مشخصات و معناشناسی Dalvik Bytecode پشتیبانی کند. مجریان دستگاه باید از ART ، اجرای مرجع بالادست از قالب اجرایی Dalvik و سیستم مدیریت بسته اجرای مرجع استفاده کنند.

پیاده سازی های دستگاه باید Dalvik Runtimes را پیکربندی کند تا حافظه را مطابق با پلت فرم Android بالادست و مطابق جدول زیر مشخص کند. (به بخش 7.1.1 برای تعاریف اندازه صفحه و تراکم صفحه مراجعه کنید.) توجه داشته باشید که مقادیر حافظه مشخص شده در زیر حداقل مقادیر در نظر گرفته شده است و اجرای دستگاه ممکن است حافظه بیشتری را برای هر برنامه اختصاص دهد.

3.8. سازگاری با رابط کاربری

3.8.1. پرتابگر (صفحه اصلی)

Android شامل یک برنامه پرتاب (صفحه اصلی) و پشتیبانی از برنامه های شخص ثالث برای جایگزینی پرتاب دستگاه (صفحه اصلی) است. پیاده سازی دستگاه هایی که به برنامه های شخص ثالث اجازه می دهد تا صفحه اصلی دستگاه را جایگزین کنند ، باید ویژگی سیستم عامل Android.software.home_screen را اعلام کنند.

3.8.2. ابزارک ها

Android یک نوع مؤلفه و API و چرخه حیات مربوطه را تعریف می کند که به برنامه ها اجازه می دهد تا یک "AppWidget" را در معرض کاربر نهایی قرار دهند ، ویژگی ای که به شدت توصیه می شود در پیاده سازی دستگاه های دستی پشتیبانی شود. پیاده سازی دستگاه هایی که از ابزارک های تعبیه شده در صفحه اصلی پشتیبانی می کنند باید شرایط زیر را برآورده کرده و پشتیبانی از ویژگی های سیستم عامل Android.software.app_widgets را اعلام کنند.

• پرتاب کننده های دستگاه باید شامل پشتیبانی داخلی برای AppWidgets و قرار دادن هزینه های رابط کاربری برای افزودن ، پیکربندی ، مشاهده و حذف AppWidgets به طور مستقیم در داخل پرتاب باشد.
• اجرای دستگاه باید قادر به ارائه ابزارک هایی باشد که در اندازه شبکه استاندارد 4 4 4 باشد. برای جزئیات بیشتر به دستورالعمل های طراحی ویجت برنامه در مستندات Android SDK مراجعه کنید.
• پیاده سازی دستگاه هایی که شامل پشتیبانی از صفحه قفل هستند ممکن است از ابزارک های برنامه در صفحه قفل پشتیبانی کنند.

3.8.3. اطلاعیه

Android شامل API است که به توسعه دهندگان اجازه می دهد تا با استفاده از ویژگی های سخت افزاری و نرم افزاری دستگاه ، به کاربران از رویدادهای قابل توجه اطلاع دهند .

برخی از API ها به برنامه های کاربردی اجازه می دهند تا با استفاده از سخت افزار ، اعلان ها را انجام دهند یا توجه را به خود جلب کنند - به ویژه صدا ، لرزش و نور. اجرای دستگاه باید از اعلان هایی که از ویژگی های سخت افزاری استفاده می کنند ، همانطور که در مستندات SDK توضیح داده شده است ، و تا حد امکان با سخت افزار اجرای دستگاه پشتیبانی کند. به عنوان مثال ، اگر اجرای دستگاه شامل ویبراتور باشد ، باید API های لرزش را به درستی پیاده سازی کند. اگر اجرای دستگاه فاقد سخت افزار باشد ، API های مربوطه باید به عنوان No-Ops اجرا شوند. این رفتار در بخش 7 بیشتر شرح داده شده است.

علاوه بر این ، اجرای باید به درستی تمام منابع (نمادها ، پرونده های انیمیشن و غیره) را که در API ها یا در راهنمای سبک نماد نوار وضعیت/سیستم ارائه شده است ، ارائه دهد ، که در مورد دستگاه تلویزیونی اندرویدی شامل امکان نمایش عدم نمایش اطلاعیه. مجریان دستگاه ممکن است تجربه کاربری جایگزین را برای اعلان ها نسبت به آنچه که توسط اجرای منبع باز اندروید ارائه شده است ، ارائه دهند. با این حال ، چنین سیستم های اطلاع رسانی جایگزین باید مانند موارد فوق از منابع اعلان موجود پشتیبانی کنند.

Android شامل پشتیبانی از اعلان های مختلف مانند:

• اعلان های غنی دیدگاههای تعاملی برای اعلان های مداوم.
• اعلان های سر به بالا . نمایش های تعاملی کاربران می توانند بدون ترک برنامه فعلی ، روی آن عمل یا عزل کنند.

Android Automotive device implementations SHOULD allow adjusting audio volume separately per each audio stream using the content type or usage as defined by AudioAttributes and car audio usage as publicly defined in android.car.CarAudioManager .

5.6. تأخیر صوتی

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 environment at an on-device transducer or signal leaves the device via a port and can be observed externally.
• cold output latency . The output latency for the first frame, 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 sum of lost input time and the input latency for the first frame, 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.
• cold output jitter . The variability among separate measurements of cold output latency values.
• cold input jitter . The variability among separate measurements of cold input latency values.
• 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 .

Device implementations that declare android.hardware.audio.output are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to meet or exceed these audio output requirements:

• cold output latency of 100 milliseconds or less
• continuous output latency of 45 milliseconds or less
• minimize the cold output jitter

If a device implementation meets the requirements of this section after any initial calibration when using the OpenSL ES PCM buffer queue API, for continuous output latency and cold output latency over at least one supported audio output device, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to report support for low-latency audio, by reporting the feature android.hardware.audio.low_latency via the android.content.pm.PackageManager class. Conversely, if the device implementation does not meet these requirements it MUST NOT report support for low-latency audio.

Device implementations that include android.hardware.microphone are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to meet these input audio requirements:

• cold input latency of 100 milliseconds or less
• continuous input latency of 30 milliseconds or less
• continuous round-trip latency of 50 milliseconds or less
• minimize the cold input jitter

5.7. Network Protocols

Devices MUST support the media network protocols for audio and video playback as specified in the Android SDK documentation. Specifically, devices MUST support the following media network protocols:

• HTTP(S) progressive streaming
  All required codecs and container formats in section 5.1 MUST be supported over HTTP(S)

• HTTP Live Streaming draft protocol, Version 7
  The following media segment formats MUST be supported:

• RTSP (RTP، SDP)

  The following RTP audio video profile and related codecs MUST be supported. For exceptions please see the table footnotes in section 5.1 .

5.8. Secure Media

Device implementations that support secure video output and are capable of supporting secure surfaces MUST declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE. Device implementations that declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE, if they support a wireless display protocol, MUST secure the link with a cryptographically strong mechanism such as HDCP 2.x or higher for Miracast wireless displays. Similarly if they support a wired external display, the device implementations MUST support HDCP 1.2 or higher. Android Television device implementations MUST support HDCP 2.2 for devices supporting 4K resolution and HDCP 1.4 or above for lower resolutions. The upstream Android open source implementation includes support for wireless (Miracast) and wired (HDMI) displays that satisfies this requirement.

5.9. Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI)

If a device implementation supports the inter-app MIDI software transport (virtual MIDI devices), and it supports MIDI over all of the following MIDI-capable hardware transports for which it provides generic non-MIDI connectivity, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to report support for feature android.software.midi via the android.content.pm.PackageManager class.

The MIDI-capable hardware transports are:

• USB host mode (section 7.7 USB)
• USB peripheral mode (section 7.7 USB)
• MIDI over Bluetooth LE acting in central role (section 7.4.3 Bluetooth)

Conversely, if the device implementation provides generic non-MIDI connectivity over a particular MIDI-capable hardware transport listed above, but does not support MIDI over that hardware transport, it MUST NOT report support for feature android.software.midi.

5.10. Professional Audio

If a device implementation meets all of the following requirements, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to report support for feature android.hardware.audio.pro via the android.content.pm.PackageManager class.

• The device implementation MUST report support for feature android.hardware.audio.low_latency.
• The continuous round-trip audio latency, as defined in section 5.6 Audio Latency, MUST be 20 milliseconds or less and SHOULD be 10 milliseconds or less over at least one supported path.
• If the device includes a 4 conductor 3.5mm audio jack, the continuous round-trip audio latency MUST be 20 milliseconds or less over the audio jack path, and SHOULD be 10 milliseconds or less over at the audio jack path.
• The device implementation MUST include a USB port(s) supporting USB host mode and USB peripheral mode.
• The USB host mode MUST implement the USB audio class.
• If the device includes an HDMI port, the device implementation MUST support output in stereo and eight channels at 20-bit or 24-bit depth and 192 kHz without bit-depth loss or resampling.
• The device implementation MUST report support for feature android.software.midi.
• If the device includes a 4 conductor 3.5mm audio jack, the device implementation is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to comply with section Mobile device (jack) specifications of the Wired Audio Headset Specification (v1.1) .

Latencies and USB audio requirements MUST be met using the OpenSL ES PCM buffer queue API.

In addition, a device implementation that reports support for this feature SHOULD:

• Provide a sustainable level of CPU performance while audio is active.
• Minimize audio clock inaccuracy and drift relative to standard time.
• Minimize audio clock drift relative to the CPU CLOCK_MONOTONIC when both are active.
• Minimize audio latency over on-device transducers.
• Minimize audio latency over USB digital audio.
• Document audio latency measurements over all paths.
• Minimize jitter in audio buffer completion callback entry times, as this affects usable percentage of full CPU bandwidth by the callback.
• Provide zero audio underruns (output) or overruns (input) under normal use at reported latency.
• Provide zero inter-channel latency difference.
• Minimize MIDI mean latency over all transports.
• Minimize MIDI latency variability under load (jitter) over all transports.
• Provide accurate MIDI timestamps over all transports.
• Minimize audio signal noise over on-device transducers, including the period immediately after cold start.
• Provide zero audio clock difference between the input and output sides of corresponding end-points, when both are active. Examples of corresponding end-points include the on-device microphone and speaker, or the audio jack input and output.
• Handle audio buffer completion callbacks for the input and output sides of corresponding end-points on the same thread when both are active, and enter the output callback immediately after the return from the input callback. Or if it is not feasible to handle the callbacks on the same thread, then enter the output callback shortly after entering the input callback to permit the application to have a consistent timing of the input and output sides.
• Minimize the phase difference between HAL audio buffering for the input and output sides of corresponding end-points.
• Minimize touch latency.
• Minimize touch latency variability under load (jitter).

5.11. Capture for Unprocessed

Starting from Android 7.0, a new recording source has been added. It can be accessed using the android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource.UNPROCESSED audio source. In OpenSL ES, it can be accessed with the record preset SL_ANDROID_RECORDING_PRESET_UNPROCESSED .

A device MUST satisfy all of the following requirements to report support of the unprocessed audio source via the android.media.AudioManager property PROPERTY_SUPPORT_AUDIO_SOURCE_UNPROCESSED :

• The device MUST exhibit approximately flat amplitude-versus-frequency characteristics in the mid-frequency range: specifically ±10dB from 100 Hz to 7000 Hz.

• The device MUST exhibit amplitude levels in the low frequency range: specifically from ±20 dB from 5 Hz to 100 Hz compared to the mid-frequency range.

• The device 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.

• Audio input sensitivity MUST be set 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 ).

• SNR > 60 dB (difference between 94 dB SPL and equivalent SPL of self noise, A-weighted).

• Total harmonic distortion MUST be less than 1% for 1 kHZ at 90 dB SPL input level at the microphone.

• The only signal processing allowed in the path is a level multiplier to bring the level to desired range. This level multiplier MUST NOT introduce delay or latency to the signal path.

• No other signal processing is allowed in the path, such as Automatic Gain Control, High Pass Filter, or Echo Cancellation. 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.

All SPL measurements are made directly next to the microphone under test.

For multiple microphone configurations, these requirements apply to each microphone.

It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that a device satisfy as many of the requirements for the signal path for the unprocessed recording source; however, a device must satisfy all of these requirements, listed above, if it claims to support the unprocessed audio source.

6. Developer Tools and Options Compatibility

6.1. ابزارهای توسعه دهنده

Device implementations MUST support the Android Developer Tools provided in the Android SDK. Android compatible devices MUST be compatible with:

• Android Debug Bridge (adb)
  • Device implementations MUST support all adb functions as documented in the Android SDK including dumpsys .
  • The device-side adb daemon MUST be inactive by default and there MUST be a user-accessible mechanism to turn on the Android Debug Bridge. If a device implementation omits USB peripheral mode, it MUST implement the Android Debug Bridge via local-area network (such as Ethernet or 802.11).
  • Android includes support for secure adb. Secure adb enables adb on known authenticated hosts. Device implementations MUST support secure adb.
• Dalvik Debug Monitor Service (ddms)
  • Device implementations MUST support all ddms features as documented in the Android SDK.
  • As ddms uses adb, support for ddms SHOULD be inactive by default, but MUST be supported whenever the user has activated the Android Debug Bridge, as above.
• Monkey Device implementations MUST include the Monkey framework, and make it available for applications to use.
• SysTrace
  • Device implementations MUST support systrace tool as documented in the Android SDK. Systrace must be inactive by default, and there MUST be a user-accessible mechanism to turn on Systrace.
  • Most Linux-based systems and Apple Macintosh systems recognize Android devices using the standard Android SDK tools, without additional support; however Microsoft Windows systems typically require a driver for new Android devices. (For instance, new vendor IDs and sometimes new device IDs require custom USB drivers for Windows systems.)
  • If a device implementation is unrecognized by the adb tool as provided in the standard Android SDK, device implementers MUST provide Windows drivers allowing developers to connect to the device using the adb protocol. These drivers MUST be provided for Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

6.2. گزینه های توسعه دهنده

Android includes support for developers to configure application development-related settings. Device implementations 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. Device implementations MUST provide a consistent experience for Developer Options. Specifically, device implementations MUST hide Developer Options by default and MUST provide a mechanism to enable Developer Options that is consistent with the upstream Android implementation.

7. Hardware Compatibility

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

• Complete class definitions (as documented by the SDK) for the component APIs MUST still be presented.
• The API's behaviors MUST be implemented as no-ops in some reasonable fashion.
• API methods MUST return null values where permitted by the SDK documentation.
• API methods MUST return no-op implementations of classes where null values are not permitted by the SDK documentation.
• API methods MUST NOT throw exceptions not documented by the SDK documentation.

A typical example of a scenario where these requirements apply is the telephony API: Even on non-phone devices, these APIs must be implemented as reasonable no-ops.

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.

7.1. نمایشگر و گرافیک

Android includes facilities that automatically adjust application assets and UI layouts appropriately for the device to ensure that third-party applications run well on a variety of hardware configurations . Devices MUST properly implement these APIs and behaviors, as detailed in this section.

The units referenced by the requirements in this section are defined as follows:

• physical diagonal size . The distance in inches between two opposing corners of the illuminated portion of the display.
• dots per inch (dpi) . The number of pixels encompassed by a linear horizontal or vertical span of 1”. Where dpi values are listed, both horizontal and vertical dpi must fall within the range.
• aspect ratio . The ratio of the pixels of the longer dimension to the shorter dimension of the screen. For example, a display of 480x854 pixels would be 854/480 = 1.779, or roughly “16:9”.
• density-independent pixel (dp) . The virtual pixel unit normalized to a 160 dpi screen, calculated as: pixels = dps * (density/160).

7.1.1. Screen Configuration

7.1.1.1. اندازه صفحه نمایش

The Android UI framework supports a variety of different screen sizes, and allows applications to query the device screen size (aka “screen layout") via android.content.res.Configuration.screenLayout with the SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_MASK. Device implementations MUST report the correct screen size as defined in the Android SDK documentation and determined by the upstream Android platform. Specifically, device implementations MUST report the correct screen size according to the following logical density-independent pixel (dp) screen dimensions.

• Devices MUST have screen sizes of at least 426 dp x 320 dp ('small'), unless it is an Android Watch device.
• Devices that report screen size 'normal' MUST have screen sizes of at least 480 dp x 320 dp.
• Devices that report screen size 'large' MUST have screen sizes of at least 640 dp x 480 dp.
• Devices that report screen size 'xlarge' MUST have screen sizes of at least 960 dp x 720 dp.

علاوه بر این:

• Android Watch devices MUST have a screen with the physical diagonal size in the range from 1.1 to 2.5 inches.
• Android Automotive devices MUST have a screen with the physical diagonal size greater than or equal to 6 inches.
• Android Automotive devices MUST have a screen size of at least 750 dp x 480 dp.
• Other types of Android device implementations, with a physically integrated screen, MUST have a screen at least 2.5 inches in physical diagonal size.

Devices MUST NOT change their reported screen size at any time.

Applications optionally indicate which screen sizes they support via the <supports-screens> attribute in the AndroidManifest.xml file. Device implementations MUST correctly honor applications' stated support for small, normal, large, and xlarge screens, as described in the Android SDK documentation.

7.1.1.2. نسبت ابعاد صفحه نمایش

While there is no restriction to the screen aspect ratio value of the physical screen display, the screen aspect ratio of the surface that third-party apps are rendered on and which can be derived from the values reported via the DisplayMetrics MUST meet the following requirements:

• If the uiMode is configured as UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH, the aspect ratio value MAY be set as 1.0 (1:1).
• If the third-party app indicates that it is resizeable via the android:resizeableActivity attribute, there are no restrictions to the aspect ratio value.
• For all other cases, the aspect ratio MUST be a value between 1.3333 (4:3) and 1.86 (roughly 16:9) unless the app has indicated explicitly that it supports a higher screen aspect ratio through the maxAspectRatio metadata value.

7.1.1.3. Screen Density

The Android UI framework defines a set of standard logical densities to help application developers target application resources. Device implementations MUST report only one of the following logical Android framework densities through the android.util.DisplayMetrics APIs, and MUST execute applications at this standard density and MUST NOT change the value at at any time for the default display.

• 120 dpi (ldpi)
• 160 dpi (mdpi)
• 213 dpi (tvdpi)
• 240 dpi (hdpi)
• 280 dpi (280dpi)
• 320 dpi (xhdpi)
• 360 dpi (360dpi)
• 400 dpi (400dpi)
• 420 dpi (420dpi)
• 480 dpi (xxhdpi)
• 560 dpi (560dpi)
• 640 dpi (xxxhdpi)

Device implementations SHOULD define the standard Android framework density that is numerically closest to the physical density of the screen, unless that logical density pushes the reported screen size below the minimum supported. If the standard Android framework density that is numerically closest to the physical density results in a screen size that is smaller than the smallest supported compatible screen size (320 dp width), device implementations SHOULD report the next lowest standard Android framework density.

Device implementations are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide users a setting to change the display size. If there is an implementation to change the display size of the device, it MUST align with the AOSP implementation as indicated below:

• The display size MUST NOT be scaled any larger than 1.5 times the native density or produce an effective minimum screen dimension smaller than 320dp (equivalent to resource qualifier sw320dp), whichever comes first.
• Display size MUST NOT be scaled any smaller than 0.85 times the native density.
• To ensure good usability and consistent font sizes, it is RECOMMENDED that the following scaling of Native Display options be provided (while complying with the limits specified above)
• Small: 0.85x
• Default: 1x (Native display scale)
• Large: 1.15x
• Larger: 1.3x
• Largest 1.45x

7.1.2. Display Metrics

Device implementations MUST report correct values for all display metrics defined in android.util.DisplayMetrics and MUST report the same values regardless of whether the embedded or external screen is used as the default display.

7.1.3. جهت صفحه نمایش

Devices MUST report which screen orientations they support (android.hardware.screen.portrait and/or android.hardware.screen.landscape) and MUST report at least one supported orientation. For example, a device with a fixed orientation landscape screen, such as a television or laptop, SHOULD only report android.hardware.screen.landscape.

Devices that report both screen orientations MUST support dynamic orientation by applications to either portrait or landscape screen orientation. That is, the device must respect the application's request for a specific screen orientation. Device implementations MAY select either portrait or landscape orientation as the default.

Devices MUST report the correct value for the device's current orientation, whenever queried via the android.content.res.Configuration.orientation, android.view.Display.getOrientation(), or other APIs.

Devices MUST NOT change the reported screen size or density when changing orientation.

7.1.4. 2D and 3D Graphics Acceleration

Device implementations MUST support both OpenGL ES 1.0 and 2.0, as embodied and detailed in the Android SDK documentations. Device implementations SHOULD support OpenGL ES 3.0, 3.1, or 3.2 on devices capable of supporting it. Device implementations MUST also support Android RenderScript , as detailed in the Android SDK documentation.

Device implementations MUST also correctly identify themselves as supporting OpenGL ES 1.0, OpenGL ES 2.0, OpenGL ES 3.0, OpenGL 3.1, or OpenGL 3.2. به این معنا که:

• The managed APIs (such as via the GLES10.getString() method) MUST report support for OpenGL ES 1.0 and OpenGL ES 2.0.
• The native C/C++ OpenGL APIs (APIs available to apps via libGLES_v1CM.so, libGLES_v2.so, or libEGL.so) MUST report support for OpenGL ES 1.0 and OpenGL ES 2.0.
• Device implementations that declare support for OpenGL ES 3.0, 3.1, or 3.2 MUST support the corresponding managed APIs and include support for native C/C++ APIs. On device implementations that declare support for OpenGL ES 3.0, 3.1, or 3.2 libGLESv2.so MUST export the corresponding function symbols in addition to the OpenGL ES 2.0 function symbols.

Android provides an OpenGL ES extension pack with Java interfaces and native support for advanced graphics functionality such as tessellation and the ASTC texture compression format. Android device implementations MUST support the extension pack if the device supports OpenGL ES 3.2 and MAY support it otherwise. If the extension pack is supported in its entirety, the device MUST identify the support through the android.hardware.opengles.aep feature flag.

Also, device implementations MAY implement any desired OpenGL ES extensions. However, device implementations MUST report via the OpenGL ES managed and native APIs all extension strings that they do support, and conversely MUST NOT report extension strings that they do not support.

Note that Android includes support for applications to optionally specify that they require specific OpenGL texture compression formats. These formats are typically vendor-specific. Device implementations are not required by Android to implement any specific texture compression format. However, they SHOULD accurately report any texture compression formats that they do support, via the getString() method in the OpenGL API.

Android includes a mechanism for applications to declare that they want to enable hardware acceleration for 2D graphics at the Application, Activity, Window, or View level through the use of a manifest tag android:hardwareAccelerated or direct API calls.

Device implementations MUST enable hardware acceleration by default, and MUST disable hardware acceleration if the developer so requests by setting android:hardwareAccelerated="false” or disabling hardware acceleration directly through the Android View APIs.

In addition, device implementations MUST exhibit behavior consistent with the Android SDK documentation on hardware acceleration .

Android includes a TextureView object that lets developers directly integrate hardware-accelerated OpenGL ES textures as rendering targets in a UI hierarchy. Device implementations MUST support the TextureView API, and MUST exhibit consistent behavior with the upstream Android implementation.

Android includes support for EGL_ANDROID_RECORDABLE, an EGLConfig attribute that indicates whether the EGLConfig supports rendering to an ANativeWindow that records images to a video. Device implementations MUST support EGL_ANDROID_RECORDABLE extension.

7.1.5. Legacy Application Compatibility Mode

Android specifies a “compatibility mode” in which the framework operates in a 'normal' screen size equivalent (320dp width) mode for the benefit of legacy applications not developed for old versions of Android that pre-date screen-size independence.

• Android Automotive does not support legacy compatibility mode.
• All other device implementations MUST include support for legacy application compatibility mode as implemented by the upstream Android open source code. That is, device implementations MUST NOT alter the triggers or thresholds at which compatibility mode is activated, and MUST NOT alter the behavior of the compatibility mode itself.

7.1.6. فناوری صفحه نمایش

The Android platform includes APIs that allow applications to render rich graphics to the display. Devices MUST support all of these APIs as defined by the Android SDK unless specifically allowed in this document.

• Devices MUST support displays capable of rendering 16-bit color graphics and SHOULD support displays capable of 24-bit color graphics.
• Devices MUST support displays capable of rendering animations.
• The display technology used MUST have a pixel aspect ratio (PAR) between 0.9 and 1.15. That is, the pixel aspect ratio MUST be near square (1.0) with a 10 ~ 15% tolerance.

7.1.7. Secondary Displays

Android includes support for secondary display to enable media sharing capabilities and developer APIs for accessing external displays. If a device supports an external display either via a wired, wireless, or an embedded additional display connection then the device implementation MUST implement the display manager API as described in the Android SDK documentation.

7.2. دستگاه های ورودی

Devices MUST support a touchscreen or meet the requirements listed in 7.2.2 for non-touch navigation.

7.2.1. صفحه کلید

پیاده سازی دستگاه:

• MUST include support for the Input Management Framework (which allows third-party developers to create Input Method Editors—ie soft keyboard) as detailed at http://developer.android.com .
• MUST provide at least one soft keyboard implementation (regardless of whether a hard keyboard is present) except for Android Watch devices where the screen size makes it less reasonable to have a soft keyboard.
• MAY include additional soft keyboard implementations.
• MAY include a hardware keyboard.
• MUST NOT include a hardware keyboard that does not match one of the formats specified in android.content.res.Configuration.keyboard (QWERTY or 12-key).

7.2.2. Non-touch Navigation

پیاده سازی دستگاه:

• MAY omit a non-touch navigation option (trackball, d-pad, or wheel) if the device implementation is not an Android Television device.
• MUST report the correct value for android.content.res.Configuration.navigation .
• MUST provide a reasonable alternative user interface mechanism for the selection and editing of text, compatible with Input Management Engines. The upstream Android open source implementation includes a selection mechanism suitable for use with devices that lack non-touch navigation inputs.

7.2.3. Navigation Keys

The Home, Recents, and Back functions (mapped to the key events KEYCODE_HOME, KEYCODE_APP_SWITCH, KEYCODE_BACK, respectively) are essential to the Android navigation paradigm and therefore:

• Android Handheld device implementations MUST provide the Home, Recents, and Back functions.
• Android Television device implementations MUST provide the Home and Back functions.
• Android Watch device implementations MUST have the Home function available to the user, and the Back function except for when it is in UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH .
• Android Watch device implementations, and no other Android device types, MAY consume the long press event on the key event KEYCODE_BACK and omit it from being sent to the foreground application.
• Android Automotive implementations MUST provide the Home function and MAY provide Back and Recent functions.
• All other types of device implementations MUST provide the Home and Back functions.

These functions MAY be implemented via dedicated physical buttons (such as mechanical or capacitive touch buttons), or MAY be implemented using dedicated software keys on a distinct portion of the screen, gestures, touch panel, etc. Android supports both implementations. All of these functions MUST be accessible with a single action (eg tap, double-click or gesture) when visible.

Recents function, if provided, MUST have a visible button or icon unless hidden together with other navigation functions in full-screen mode. This does not apply to devices upgrading from earlier Android versions that have physical buttons for navigation and no recents key.

The Home and Back functions, if provided, MUST each have a visible button or icon unless hidden together with other navigation functions in full-screen mode or when the uiMode UI_MODE_TYPE_MASK is set to UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH.

The Menu function is deprecated in favor of action bar since Android 4.0. Therefore the new device implementations shipping with Android 7.0 and later MUST NOT implement a dedicated physical button for the Menu function. Older device implementations SHOULD NOT implement a dedicated physical button for the Menu function, but if the physical Menu button is implemented and the device is running applications with targetSdkVersion > 10, the device implementation:

• MUST display the action overflow button on the action bar when it is visible and the resulting action overflow menu popup is not empty. For a device implementation launched before Android 4.4 but upgrading to Android 7.0, this is RECOMMENDED.
• MUST NOT modify the position of the action overflow popup displayed by selecting the overflow button in the action bar.
• MAY render the action overflow popup at a modified position on the screen when it is displayed by selecting the physical menu button.

For backwards compatibility, device implementations 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 presented unless hidden together with other navigation functions.

Android device implementations supporting the Assist action and/or VoiceInteractionService MUST be able to launch an assist app with a single interaction (eg tap, double-click, or gesture) when other navigation keys are visible. It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use long press on home as this interaction. The designated interaction MUST launch the user-selected assist app, in other words the app that implements a VoiceInteractionService, or an activity handling the ACTION_ASSIST intent.

Device implementations MAY use a distinct portion of the screen to display the navigation keys, but if so, MUST meet these requirements:

• Device implementation 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.
• Device implementations MUST make available a portion of the display to applications that meets the requirements defined in section 7.1.1 .
• Device implementations MUST display the navigation keys when applications do not specify a system UI mode, or specify SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_VISIBLE.
• Device implementations MUST present the navigation keys in an unobtrusive “low profile” (eg. dimmed) mode when applications specify SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE.
• Device implementations MUST hide the navigation keys when applications specify SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION.

7.2.4. Touchscreen Input

Device implementations SHOULD have a pointer input system of some kind (either mouse-like or touch). However, if a device implementation does not support a pointer input system, it MUST NOT report the android.hardware.touchscreen or android.hardware.faketouch feature constant. Device implementations that do include a pointer input system:

• SHOULD support fully independently tracked pointers, if the device input system supports multiple pointers.
• MUST report the value of android.content.res.Configuration.touchscreen corresponding to the type of the specific touchscreen on the device.

Android includes support for a variety of 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. In contrast, a 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. Device implementations that declare the fake touch feature MUST meet the fake touch requirements in section 7.2.5 .

Device implementations MUST report the correct feature corresponding to the type of input used. Device implementations that include a touchscreen (single-touch or better) MUST report the platform feature constant android.hardware.touchscreen. Device implementations that report the platform feature constant android.hardware.touchscreen MUST also report the platform feature constant android.hardware.faketouch. Device implementations that do not include a touchscreen (and rely on a pointer device only) MUST NOT report any touchscreen feature, and MUST report only android.hardware.faketouch if they meet the fake touch requirements in section 7.2.5 .

7.2.5. Fake Touch Input

Device implementations that declare support for android.hardware.faketouch:

• MUST report the absolute X and Y screen positions of the pointer location and display a visual pointer on the screen.
• 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 .
• MUST support pointer down and up on an object on the screen, which allows users to emulate tap on an object on the screen.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.

Devices that declare support for android.hardware.faketouch.multitouch.distinct MUST meet the requirements for faketouch above, and MUST also support distinct tracking of two or more independent pointer inputs.

7.2.6. پشتیبانی از کنترلر بازی

Android Television device implementations MUST support button mappings for game controllers as listed below. The upstream Android implementation includes implementation for game controllers that satisfies this requirement.

7.2.6.1. Button Mappings

Android Television device implementations MUST support the following key mappings:

1 KeyEvent

2 The above HID usages must be declared within a Game pad CA (0x01 0x0005).

3 This usage must have a Logical Minimum of 0, a Logical Maximum of 7, a Physical Minimum of 0, a Physical Maximum of 315, Units in Degrees, and a Report Size of 4. The logical value is defined to be the clockwise rotation away from the vertical axis; for example, a logical value of 0 represents no rotation and the up button being pressed, while a logical value of 1 represents a rotation of 45 degrees and both the up and left keys being pressed.

4 MotionEvent

1 MotionEvent

7.2.7. کنترل از راه دور

Android Television device implementations SHOULD provide a remote control to allow users to access the TV interface. The remote control MAY be a physical remote or can be a software-based remote that is accessible from a mobile phone or tablet. The remote control MUST meet the requirements defined below.

• Search affordance . Device implementations MUST fire KEYCODE_SEARCH when the user invokes voice search either on the physical or software-based remote.
• جهت یابی . All Android Television remotes MUST include Back, Home, and Select buttons and support for D-pad events .

7.3. حسگرها

Android includes APIs for accessing a variety of sensor types. Devices implementations generally MAY omit these sensors, as provided for in the following subsections. If a device includes a particular sensor type that has a corresponding API for third-party developers, the device implementation MUST implement that API as described in the Android SDK documentation and the Android Open Source documentation on sensors . For example, device implementations:

• MUST accurately report the presence or absence of sensors per the android.content.pm.PackageManager class.
• MUST return an accurate list of supported sensors via the SensorManager.getSensorList() and similar methods.
• 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.).
• 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.
• SHOULD 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. Existing and new Android devices are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to meet these requirements so they will be able to upgrade to the future platform releases where this might become a REQUIRED component. The synchronization error SHOULD be below 100 milliseconds.
• MUST report sensor data with a maximum latency of 100 milliseconds + 2 * sample_time for the case of a sensor streamed with a minimum required latency of 5 ms + 2 * sample_time when the application processor is active. This delay does not include any filtering delays.
• 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.

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.

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.) Device implementations SHOULD implement these sensor types, when they include the prerequisite physical sensors as described in sensor types . If a device implementation includes a composite sensor it MUST implement the sensor as described in the Android Open Source documentation on composite sensors .

Some Android sensors support a “continuous” trigger mode , which returns data continuously. 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 مناسبت ها.

Note that the device implementations 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.

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

7.3.1. شتاب سنج

• SHOULD implement the TYPE_SIGNIFICANT_MOTION, TYPE_TILT_DETECTOR, TYPE_STEP_DETECTOR, TYPE_STEP_COUNTER composite sensors as described in the Android SDK document. Existing and new Android devices are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement the TYPE_SIGNIFICANT_MOTION composite sensor. If any of these sensors are implemented, the sum of their power consumption MUST always be less than 4 mW and SHOULD each be below 2 mW and 0.5 mW for when the device is in a dynamic or static condition.
• If a gyroscope sensor is included, MUST implement the TYPE_GRAVITY and TYPE_LINEAR_ACCELERATION composite sensors and SHOULD implement the TYPE_GAME_ROTATION_VECTOR composite sensor. Existing and new Android devices are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement the TYPE_GAME_ROTATION_VECTOR sensor.

• MUST implement a TYPE_ROTATION_VECTOR composite sensor, if an accelerometer sensor and a gyroscope sensor is also included.
• MAY implement the TYPE_GEOMAGNETIC_ROTATION_VECTOR sensor if an accelerometer sensor is also implemented. However if implemented, it MUST consume less than 10 mW and SHOULD consume less than 3 mW when the sensor is registered for batch mode at 10 Hz.

7.3.3. جی پی اس

Device implementations SHOULD include a GPS/GNSS receiver. If a device implementation does include a GPS/GNSS receiver and reports the capability to applications through the android.hardware.location.gps feature flag:

• It MUST support location outputs at a rate of at least 1 Hz when requested via LocationManager#requestLocationUpdate .
• It MUST be able to determine the location in open-sky conditions (strong signals, negligible multipath, HDOP < 2) within 10 seconds (fast time to first fix), when connected to a 0.5 Mbps or faster data speed internet connection. This requirement is typically met by the use of some form of Assisted or Predicted GPS/GNSS technique to minimize GPS/GNSS lock-on time (Assistance data includes Reference Time, Reference Location and Satellite Ephemeris/Clock).
  • After making such a location calculation, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED for the device to be able to determine its location, in open sky, within 10 seconds, when location requests are restarted, up to an hour after the initial location calculation, even when the subsequent request is made without a data connection, and/or after a power cycle.
• In open sky conditions after determining the location, while stationary or moving with less than 1 meter per second squared of acceleration:

Note that while some of the GPS requirements above are stated as STRONGLY RECOMMENDED, the Compatibility Definition for the next major version is expected to change these to a MUST.

7.3.4. ژیروسکوپ

That is, the proximity sensor MUST be oriented to detect objects close to the screen, as the primary intent of this sensor type is to detect a phone in use by the user. If a device implementation includes a proximity sensor with any other orientation, it MUST NOT be accessible through this API.
• MUST have 1-bit of accuracy or more.

7.3.9. High Fidelity Sensors

7.4. اتصال داده

7.4.1. تلفن

“Telephony” as used by the Android APIs and this document refers specifically to hardware related to placing voice calls and sending SMS messages via a GSM or CDMA network. While these voice calls may or may not be packet-switched, they are for the purposes of Android considered independent of any data connectivity that may be implemented using the same network. In other words, the Android “telephony” functionality and APIs refer specifically to voice calls and SMS. For instance, device implementations that cannot place calls or send/receive SMS messages MUST NOT report the android.hardware.telephony feature or any subfeatures, regardless of whether they use a cellular network for data connectivity.

Android MAY be used on devices that do not include telephony hardware. That is, Android is compatible with devices that are not phones. However, if a device implementation does include GSM or CDMA telephony, it MUST implement full support for the API for that technology. Device implementations that do not include telephony hardware MUST implement the full APIs as no-ops.

7.4.1.1. Number Blocking Compatibility

Android Telephony device implementations MUST include number blocking support and:

• MUST fully implement BlockedNumberContract and the corresponding API as described in the SDK documentation.
• MUST block all calls and messages from a phone number in 'BlockedNumberProvider' without any interaction with apps. The only exception is when number blocking is temporarily lifted as described in the SDK documentation.
• MUST NOT write to the platform call log provider for a blocked call.
• MUST NOT write to the Telephony provider for a blocked message.
• MUST implement a blocked numbers management UI, which is opened with the intent returned by TelecomManager.createManageBlockedNumbersIntent() method.
• MUST NOT allow secondary users to view or edit the blocked numbers on the device as the Android platform assumes the primary user to have full control of the telephony services, a single instance, on the device. All blocking related UI MUST be hidden for secondary users and the blocked list MUST still be respected.
• SHOULD migrate the blocked numbers into the provider when a device updates to Android 7.0.

7.4.2. IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi)

All Android device implementations SHOULD include support for one or more forms of 802.11. If a device implementation does include support for 802.11 and exposes the functionality to a third-party application, it MUST implement the corresponding Android API and:

• MUST report the hardware feature flag android.hardware.wifi.
• MUST implement the multicast API as described in the SDK documentation.
• MUST support multicast DNS (mDNS) and MUST NOT filter mDNS packets (224.0.0.251) at any time of operation including:
  • Even when the screen is not in an active state.
  • For Android Television device implementations, even when in standby power states.

7.4.2.1. ارتباط مستقیم به کمک وای - فای

Device implementations SHOULD include support for Wi-Fi Direct (Wi-Fi peer-to-peer). If a device implementation does include support for Wi-Fi Direct, it MUST implement the corresponding Android API as described in the SDK documentation. If a device implementation includes support for Wi-Fi Direct, then it:

• MUST report the hardware feature android.hardware.wifi.direct.
• MUST support regular Wi-Fi operation.
• SHOULD support concurrent Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct operation.

7.4.2.2. Wi-Fi Tunneled Direct Link Setup

Device implementations SHOULD include support for Wi-Fi Tunneled Direct Link Setup (TDLS) as described in the Android SDK Documentation. If a device implementation does include support for TDLS and TDLS is enabled by the WiFiManager API, the device:

• SHOULD use TDLS only when it is possible AND beneficial.
• SHOULD have some heuristic and NOT use TDLS when its performance might be worse than going through the Wi-Fi access point.

7.4.3. بلوتوث

Device implementations that support android.hardware.vr.high_performance feature MUST support Bluetooth 4.2 and Bluetooth LE Data Length Extension.

Android includes support for Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy . Device implementations that include support for Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy MUST declare the relevant platform features (android.hardware.bluetooth and android.hardware.bluetooth_le respectively) and implement the platform APIs. Device implementations SHOULD implement relevant Bluetooth profiles such as A2DP, AVCP, OBEX, etc. as appropriate for the device.

Android Automotive implementations SHOULD support Message Access Profile (MAP). Android Automotive implementations MUST support the following Bluetooth profiles:

• Phone calling over Hands-Free Profile (HFP).
• Media playback over Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP).
• Media playback control over Remote Control Profile (AVRCP).
• Contact sharing using the Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP).

Device implementations including support for Bluetooth Low Energy:

• MUST declare the hardware feature android.hardware.bluetooth_le.
• MUST enable the GATT (generic attribute profile) based Bluetooth APIs as described in the SDK documentation and android.bluetooth .
• are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement a Resolvable Private Address (RPA) timeout no longer than 15 minutes and rotate the address at timeout to protect user privacy.
• SHOULD support offloading of the filtering logic to the bluetooth chipset when implementing the ScanFilter API , and MUST report the correct value of where the filtering logic is implemented whenever queried via the android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter.isOffloadedFilteringSupported() method.
• SHOULD support offloading of the batched scanning to the bluetooth chipset, but if not supported, MUST report 'false' whenever queried via the android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter.isOffloadedScanBatchingSupported() method.
• SHOULD support multi advertisement with at least 4 slots, but if not supported, MUST report 'false' whenever queried via the android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter.isMultipleAdvertisementSupported() method.

7.4.4. Near-Field Communications

Device implementations SHOULD include a transceiver and related hardware for Near-Field Communications (NFC). If a device implementation does include NFC hardware and plans to make it available to third-party apps, then it:

• MUST report the android.hardware.nfc feature from the android.content.pm.PackageManager.hasSystemFeature() method .
• MUST be capable of reading and writing NDEF messages via the following NFC standards:
  • MUST be capable of acting as an NFC Forum reader/writer (as defined by the NFC Forum technical specification NFCForum-TS-DigitalProtocol-1.0) via the following NFC standards:
    • NfcA (ISO14443-3A)
    • NfcB (ISO14443-3B)
    • NfcF (JIS X 6319-4)
    • IsoDep (ISO 14443-4)
    • NFC Forum Tag Types 1, 2, 3, 4 (defined by the NFC Forum)
  • STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be capable of reading and writing NDEF messages as well as raw data via the following NFC standards. Note that while the NFC standards below are stated as STRONGLY RECOMMENDED, the Compatibility Definition for a future version is planned to change these to MUST. These standards are optional in this version but will be required in future versions. Existing and new devices that run this version of Android are very strongly encouraged to meet these requirements now so they will be able to upgrade to the future platform releases.
    • NfcV (ISO 15693)
  • SHOULD be capable of reading the barcode and URL (if encoded) of Thinfilm NFC Barcode products.
  • MUST be capable of transmitting and receiving data via the following peer-to-peer standards and protocols:
    • ISO 18092
    • LLCP 1.2 (defined by the NFC Forum)
    • SDP 1.0 (defined by the NFC Forum)
    • NDEF Push Protocol
    • SNEP 1.0 (defined by the NFC Forum)
  • MUST include support for Android Beam .
  • MUST implement the SNEP default server. Valid NDEF messages received by the default SNEP server MUST be dispatched to applications using the android.nfc.ACTION_NDEF_DISCOVERED intent. Disabling Android Beam in settings MUST NOT disable dispatch of incoming NDEF message.
  • MUST honor the android.settings.NFCSHARING_SETTINGS intent to show NFC sharing settings .
  • MUST implement the NPP server. Messages received by the NPP server MUST be processed the same way as the SNEP default server.
  • MUST implement a SNEP client and attempt to send outbound P2P NDEF to the default SNEP server when Android Beam is enabled. If no default SNEP server is found then the client MUST attempt to send to an NPP server.
  • MUST allow foreground activities to set the outbound P2P NDEF message using android.nfc.NfcAdapter.setNdefPushMessage, and android.nfc.NfcAdapter.setNdefPushMessageCallback, and android.nfc.NfcAdapter.enableForegroundNdefPush.
  • SHOULD use a gesture or on-screen confirmation, such as 'Touch to Beam', before sending outbound P2P NDEF messages.
  • SHOULD enable Android Beam by default and MUST be able to send and receive using Android Beam, even when another proprietary NFC P2p mode is turned on.
  • MUST support NFC Connection handover to Bluetooth when the device supports Bluetooth Object Push Profile. Device implementations MUST support connection handover to Bluetooth when using android.nfc.NfcAdapter.setBeamPushUris, by implementing the “ Connection Handover version 1.2 ” and “ Bluetooth Secure Simple Pairing Using NFC version 1.0 ” specs from the NFC Forum. Such an implementation MUST implement the handover LLCP service with service name “urn:nfc:sn:handover” for exchanging the handover request/select records over NFC, and it MUST use the Bluetooth Object Push Profile for the actual Bluetooth data transfer. For legacy reasons (to remain compatible with Android 4.1 devices), the implementation SHOULD still accept SNEP GET requests for exchanging the handover request/select records over NFC. However an implementation itself SHOULD NOT send SNEP GET requests for performing connection handover.
  • MUST poll for all supported technologies while in NFC discovery mode.
  • SHOULD be in NFC discovery mode while the device is awake with the screen active and the lock-screen unlocked.

(Note that publicly available links are not available for the JIS, ISO, and NFC Forum specifications cited above.)

Android includes support for NFC Host Card Emulation (HCE) mode. If a device implementation does include an NFC controller chipset capable of HCE (for NfcA and/or NfcB) and it supports Application ID (AID) routing, then it:

• MUST report the android.hardware.nfc.hce feature constant.
• MUST support NFC HCE APIs as defined in the Android SDK.

If a device implementation does include an NFC controller chipset capable of HCE for NfcF, and it implements the feature for third-party applications, then it:

• MUST report the android.hardware.nfc.hcef feature constant.
• MUST implement the NfcF Card Emulation APIs as defined in the Android SDK.

Additionally, device implementations MAY include reader/writer support for the following MIFARE technologies.

• MIFARE Classic
• MIFARE Ultralight
• NDEF on MIFARE Classic

Note that Android includes APIs for these MIFARE types. If a device implementation supports MIFARE in the reader/writer role, it:

• MUST implement the corresponding Android APIs as documented by the Android SDK.
• MUST report the feature com.nxp.mifare from the android.content.pm.PackageManager.hasSystemFeature() method. Note that this is not a standard Android feature and as such does not appear as a constant in the android.content.pm.PackageManager class.
• MUST NOT implement the corresponding Android APIs nor report the com.nxp.mifare feature unless it also implements general NFC support as described in this section.

If a device implementation does not include NFC hardware, it MUST NOT declare the android.hardware.nfc feature from the android.content.pm.PackageManager.hasSystemFeature() method, and MUST implement the Android NFC API as a no-op.

As the classes android.nfc.NdefMessage and android.nfc.NdefRecord represent a protocol-independent data representation format, device implementations MUST implement these APIs even if they do not include support for NFC or declare the android.hardware.nfc feature.

7.4.5. Minimum Network Capability

Device implementations MUST include support for one or more forms of data networking. Specifically, device implementations MUST include support for at least one data standard capable of 200Kbit/sec or greater. Examples of technologies that satisfy this requirement include EDGE, HSPA, EV-DO, 802.11g, Ethernet, Bluetooth PAN, etc.

Device implementations where a physical networking standard (such as Ethernet) is the primary data connection SHOULD also include support for at least one common wireless data standard, such as 802.11 (Wi-Fi).

Devices MAY implement more than one form of data connectivity.

Devices MUST include an IPv6 networking stack and support IPv6 communication using the managed APIs, such as java.net.Socket and java.net.URLConnection , as well as the native APIs, such as AF_INET6 sockets. The required level of IPv6 support depends on the network type, as follows:

• Devices that support Wi-Fi networks MUST support dual-stack and IPv6-only operation on Wi-Fi.
• Devices that support Ethernet networks MUST support dual-stack operation on Ethernet.
• Devices that support cellular data SHOULD support IPv6 operation (IPv6-only and possibly dual-stack) on cellular data.
• When a device is simultaneously connected to more than one network (eg, Wi-Fi and cellular data), it MUST simultaneously meet these requirements on each network to which it is connected.

IPv6 MUST be enabled by default.

In order to ensure that IPv6 communication is as reliable as IPv4, unicast IPv6 packets sent to the device MUST NOT be dropped, even when the screen is not in an active state. Redundant multicast IPv6 packets, such as repeated identical Router Advertisements, MAY be rate-limited in hardware or firmware if doing so is necessary to save power. In such cases, rate-limiting MUST NOT cause the device to lose IPv6 connectivity on any IPv6-compliant network that uses RA lifetimes of at least 180 seconds.

IPv6 connectivity MUST be maintained in doze mode.

7.4.6. Sync Settings

Device implementations MUST have the master auto-sync setting on by default so that the method getMasterSyncAutomatically() returns “true”.

7.4.7. ذخیره داده

Device implementations with a metered connection are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide the data saver mode.

If a device implementation provides the data saver mode, it:

• MUST support all the APIs in the ConnectivityManager class as described in the SDK documentation

• MUST provide a user interface in the settings, allowing users to add applications to or remove applications from the allowlist.

Conversely if a device implementation does not provide the data saver mode, it:

• MUST return the value RESTRICT_BACKGROUND_STATUS_DISABLED for ConnectivityManager.getRestrictBackgroundStatus()

• MUST not broadcast ConnectivityManager.ACTION_RESTRICT_BACKGROUND_CHANGED

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

7.5. دوربین ها

Device implementations SHOULD include a rear-facing camera and MAY include a front-facing camera. A rear-facing camera is a camera located on the side of the device opposite the display; that is, it images scenes on the far side of the device, like a traditional camera. A front-facing camera is a camera located on the same side of the device as the display; that is, a camera typically used to image the user, such as for video conferencing and similar applications.

If a device implementation includes at least one camera, it MUST be possible for an application to simultaneously allocate 3 RGBA_8888 bitmaps equal to the size of the images produced by the largest-resolution camera sensor on the device, while camera is open for the purpose of basic preview and still capture.

7.5.1. دوربین عقب

Device implementations SHOULD include a rear-facing camera. If a device implementation includes at least one rear-facing camera, it:

• MUST report the feature flag android.hardware.camera and android.hardware.camera.any.
• MUST have a resolution of at least 2 megapixels.
• SHOULD have either hardware auto-focus or software auto-focus implemented in the camera driver (transparent to application software).
• MAY have fixed-focus or EDOF (extended depth of field) hardware.
• MAY include a flash. If the Camera includes a flash, the flash lamp MUST NOT be lit while an android.hardware.Camera.PreviewCallback instance has been registered on a Camera preview surface, unless the application has explicitly enabled the flash by enabling the FLASH_MODE_AUTO or FLASH_MODE_ON attributes of a Camera.Parameters object. Note that this constraint does not apply to the device's built-in system camera application, but only to third-party applications using Camera.PreviewCallback.

7.5.2. دوربین جلو

Device implementations MAY include a front-facing camera. If a device implementation includes at least one front-facing camera, it:

• MUST report the feature flag android.hardware.camera.any and android.hardware.camera.front.
• MUST have a resolution of at least VGA (640x480 pixels).
• MUST NOT use a front-facing camera as the default for the Camera API. The camera API in Android has specific support for front-facing cameras and device implementations MUST NOT configure the API to to treat a front-facing camera as the default rear-facing camera, even if it is the only camera on the device.
• MAY include features (such as auto-focus, flash, etc.) available to rear-facing cameras as described in section 7.5.1 .
• MUST horizontally reflect (ie mirror) the stream displayed by an app in a CameraPreview, as follows:
  • If the device implementation is capable of being rotated by user (such as automatically via an accelerometer or manually via user input), the camera preview MUST be mirrored horizontally relative to the device's current orientation.
  • If the current application has explicitly requested that the Camera display be rotated via a call to the android.hardware.Camera.setDisplayOrientation() method, the camera preview MUST be mirrored horizontally relative to the orientation specified by the application.
  • Otherwise, the preview MUST be mirrored along the device's default horizontal axis.
• MUST mirror the image displayed by the postview in the same manner as the camera preview image stream. If the device implementation does not support postview, this requirement obviously does not apply.
• MUST NOT mirror the final captured still image or video streams returned to application callbacks or committed to media storage.

7.5.3. دوربین خارجی

Device implementations MAY include support for an external camera that is not necessarily always connected. If a device includes support for an external camera, it:

• MUST declare the platform feature flag android.hardware.camera.external and android.hardware camera.any .
• MAY support multiple cameras.
• MUST support USB Video Class (UVC 1.0 or higher) if the external camera connects through the USB port.
• SHOULD support video compressions such as MJPEG to enable transfer of high-quality unencoded streams (ie raw or independently compressed picture streams).
• MAY support camera-based video encoding. If supported, a simultaneous unencoded / MJPEG stream (QVGA or greater resolution) MUST be accessible to the device implementation.

7.5.4. رفتار API دوربین

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 .

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

• If an application has never called android.hardware.Camera.Parameters.setPreviewFormat(int), then the device MUST use android.hardware.PixelFormat.YCbCr_420_SP for preview data provided to application callbacks.
• If an application registers an android.hardware.Camera.PreviewCallback instance and the system calls the onPreviewFrame() method when the preview format is YCbCr_420_SP, the data in the byte[] passed into onPreviewFrame() must further be in the NV21 encoding format. That is, NV21 MUST be the default.
• For android.hardware.Camera, device implementations MUST support the YV12 format (as denoted by the android.graphics.ImageFormat.YV12 constant) for camera previews for both front- and rear-facing cameras. (The hardware video encoder and camera may use any native pixel format, but the device implementation MUST support conversion to YV12.)
• For android.hardware.camera2, device implementations must support the android.hardware.ImageFormat.YUV_420_888 and android.hardware.ImageFormat.JPEG formats as outputs through the android.media.ImageReader API.

Device implementations 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.

Device implementations MUST recognize and honor each parameter name defined as a constant on the android.hardware.Camera.Parameters class, if the underlying hardware supports the feature. If the device hardware does not support a feature, the API must behave as documented. 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.

Because not all device implementations can fully support all the features of the android.hardware.camera2 API, device implementations 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 .

Device implementations MUST also declare its Individual camera capabilities of android.hardware.camera2 via the android.request.availableCapabilities property and declare the appropriate feature flags ; a device must define the feature flag if any of its attached camera devices supports the feature.

Device implementations MUST broadcast the Camera.ACTION_NEW_PICTURE intent whenever a new picture is taken by the camera and the entry of the picture has been added to the media store.

Device implementations 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.

7.5.5. جهت گیری دوربین

Both front- and rear-facing cameras, if present, MUST be oriented so that the long dimension of the camera aligns with the screen's long dimension. 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.

7.6. حافظه و ذخیره سازی

7.6.1. Minimum Memory and Storage

The memory available to the kernel and userspace on device implementations MUST be at least equal or larger than the minimum values specified by the following table. (See section 7.1.1 for screen size and density definitions.)

The minimum memory values MUST be in addition to any memory space already dedicated to hardware components such as radio, video, and so on that is not under the kernel's control.

Device implementations with less than 512MB of memory available to the kernel and userspace, unless an Android Watch, MUST return the value "true" for ActivityManager.isLowRamDevice().

Android Television devices MUST have at least 4GB and other device implementations MUST have at least 3GB of non-volatile storage available for application private data. That is, the /data partition MUST be at least 4GB for Android Television devices and at least 3GB for other device implementations. Device implementations that run Android are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to have at least 4GB of non-volatile storage for application private data so they will be able to upgrade to the future platform releases.

The Android APIs include a Download Manager that applications MAY use to download data files. The device implementation of the Download Manager MUST be capable of downloading individual files of at least 100MB in size to the default “cache” location.

7.6.2. Application Shared Storage

Device implementations MUST offer shared storage for applications also often referred as “shared external storage”.

Device implementations MUST be configured with shared storage mounted by default, “out of the box”. If the shared storage is not mounted on the Linuxpath /sdcard, then the device MUST include a Linux symbolic link from /sdcard to the actual mount point.

Device implementations MAY have hardware for user-accessible removable storage, such as a Secure Digital (SD) card slot. If this slot is used to satisfy the shared storage requirement, the device implementation:

• MUST implement a toast or pop-up user interface warning the user when there is no SD card.
• MUST include a FAT-formatted SD card 1GB in size or larger OR show on the box and other material available at time of purchase that the SD card has to be separately purchased.
• MUST mount the SD card by default.

Alternatively, device implementations MAY allocate internal (non-removable) storage as shared storage for apps as included in the upstream Android Open Source Project; device implementations SHOULD use this configuration and software implementation. If a device implementation uses internal (non-removable) storage to satisfy the shared storage requirement, while that storage MAY share space with the application private data, it MUST be at least 1GB in size and mounted on /sdcard (or /sdcard MUST be a symbolic link to the physical location if it is mounted elsewhere).

Device implementations MUST enforce as documented the android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission on this shared storage. Shared storage MUST otherwise be writable by any application that obtains that permission.

Device implementations that include multiple shared storage paths (such as both an SD card slot and shared internal storage) MUST allow only pre-installed & privileged Android applications with the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission to write to the secondary external storage, except when writing to their package-specific directories or within the URI returned by firing the ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE intent.

However, device implementations SHOULD expose content from both storage paths transparently through Android's media scanner service and android.provider.MediaStore.

Regardless of the form of shared storage used, if the device implementation has a USB port with USB peripheral mode support, it MUST provide some mechanism to access the contents of shared storage from a host computer. Device implementations MAY use USB mass storage, but SHOULD use Media Transfer Protocol to satisfy this requirement. If the device implementation supports Media Transfer Protocol, it:

• SHOULD be compatible with the reference Android MTP host, Android File Transfer .
• SHOULD report a USB device class of 0x00.
• SHOULD report a USB interface name of 'MTP'.

7.6.3. Adoptable Storage

Device implementations are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement adoptable storage if the removable storage device port is in a long-term stable location, such as within the battery compartment or other protective cover.

Device implementations such as a television, MAY enable adoption through USB ports as the device is expected to be static and not mobile. But for other device implementations that are mobile in nature, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement the adoptable storage in a long-term stable location, since accidentally disconnecting them can cause data loss/corruption.

7.7. یو اس بی

Device implementations SHOULD support USB peripheral mode and SHOULD support USB host mode.

7.7.1. USB peripheral mode

If a device implementation includes a USB port supporting peripheral mode:

• The port MUST be connectable to a USB host that has a standard type-A or type-C USB port.
• The port SHOULD use micro-B, micro-AB or Type-C USB form factor. Existing and new Android devices are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to meet these requirements so they will be able to upgrade to the future platform releases.
• The port SHOULD be located on the bottom of the device (according to natural orientation) or enable software screen rotation for all apps (including home screen), so that the display draws correctly when the device is oriented with the port at bottom. Existing and new Android devices are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to meet these requirements so they will be able to upgrade to future platform releases.
• It MUST allow a USB host connected with the Android device to access the contents of the shared storage volume using either USB mass storage or Media Transfer Protocol.
• It SHOULD implement the Android Open Accessory (AOA) API and specification as documented in the Android SDK documentation, and if it is an Android Handheld device it MUST implement the AOA API. Device implementations implementing the AOA specification:
  • MUST declare support for the hardware feature android.hardware.usb.accessory .
  • MUST implement the USB audio class as documented in the Android SDK documentation.
  • The USB mass storage class MUST include the string "android" at the end of the interface description iInterface string of the USB mass storage
• It SHOULD implement support to draw 1.5 A current during HS chirp and traffic as specified in the USB Battery Charging specification, revision 1.2 . Existing and new Android devices are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to meet these requirements so they will be able to upgrade to the future platform releases.
• Type-C devices MUST detect 1.5A and 3.0A chargers per the Type-C resistor standard and it must detect changes in the advertisement.
• Type-C devices also supporting USB host mode are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support Power Delivery for data and power role swapping.
• Type-C devices SHOULD support Power Delivery for high-voltage charging and support for Alternate Modes such as display out.
• The value of iSerialNumber in USB standard device descriptor MUST be equal to the value of android.os.Build.SERIAL.
• Type-C devices are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to not support proprietary charging methods that modify Vbus voltage beyond default levels, or alter sink/source roles as such may result in interoperability issues with the chargers or devices that support the standard USB Power Delivery methods. While this is called out as "STRONGLY RECOMMENDED", in future Android versions we might REQUIRE all type-C devices to support full interoperability with standard type-C chargers.

7.7.2. USB host mode

If a device implementation includes a USB port supporting host mode, it:

• SHOULD use a type-C USB port, if the device implementation supports USB 3.1.
• MAY use a non-standard port form factor, but if so MUST ship with a cable or cables adapting the port to a standard type-A or type-C USB port.
• MAY use a micro-AB USB port, but if so SHOULD ship with a cable or cables adapting the port to a standard type-A or type-C USB port.
• is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement the USB audio class as documented in the Android SDK documentation.
• MUST implement the Android USB host API as documented in the Android SDK, and MUST declare support for the hardware feature android.hardware.usb.host .
• SHOULD support device charging while in host mode; advertising a source current of at least 1.5A as specified in the Termination Parameters section of the [USB Type-C Cable and Connector Specification Revision 1.2] (http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/usb_31_021517.zip) for USB Type-C connectors or using Charging Downstream Port(CDP) output current range as specified in the USB Battery Charging specifications, revision 1.2 for Micro-AB connectors.
• USB Type-C devices are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support DisplayPort, SHOULD support USB SuperSpeed Data Rates, and are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support Power Delivery for data and power role swapping.
• Devices with any type-A or type-AB ports MUST NOT ship with an adapter converting from this port to a type-C receptacle.
• MUST recognize any remotely connected MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) devices and make their contents accessible through the ACTION_GET_CONTENT , ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT , and ACTION_CREATE_DOCUMENT intents, if the Storage Access Framework (SAF) is supported.
• MUST, if using a Type-C USB port and including support for peripheral mode, implement Dual Role Port functionality as defined by the USB Type-C specification (section 4.5.1.3.3).
• SHOULD, if the Dual Role Port functionality is supported, implement the Try.* model that is most appropriate for the device form factor. For example a handheld device SHOULD implement the Try.SNK model.

7.8. سمعی

7.8.1. میکروفون

Device implementations MAY omit a microphone. However, if a device implementation omits a microphone, it MUST NOT report the android.hardware.microphone feature constant, and MUST implement the audio recording API at least as no-ops, per section 7 . Conversely, device implementations that do possess a microphone:

• MUST report the android.hardware.microphone feature constant.
• MUST meet the audio recording requirements in section 5.4 .
• MUST meet the audio latency requirements in section 5.6 .
• STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support near-ultrasound recording as described in section 7.8.3 .

7.8.2. Audio Output

Device implementations including a speaker or with an audio/multimedia output port for an audio output peripheral as a headset or an external speaker:

• MUST report the android.hardware.audio.output feature constant.
• MUST meet the audio playback requirements in section 5.5 .
• MUST meet the audio latency requirements in section 5.6 .
• STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support near-ultrasound playback as described in section 7.8.3 .

Conversely, if a device implementation does not include a speaker or audio output port, it MUST NOT report the android.hardware.audio output feature, and MUST implement the Audio Output related APIs as no-ops at least.

Android Watch device implementation MAY but SHOULD NOT have audio output, but other types of Android device implementations MUST have an audio output and declare android.hardware.audio.output.

7.8.2.1. Analog Audio Ports

In order to be compatible with the headsets and other audio accessories using the 3.5mm audio plug across the Android ecosystem, if a device implementation includes one or more analog audio ports, at least one of the audio port(s) SHOULD be a 4 conductor 3.5mm audio jack. If a device implementation has a 4 conductor 3.5mm audio jack, it:

• MUST support audio playback to stereo headphones and stereo headsets with a microphone, and SHOULD support audio recording from stereo headsets with a microphone.
• MUST support TRRS audio plugs with the CTIA pin-out order, and SHOULD support audio plugs with the OMTP pin-out order.
• MUST support the detection of microphone on the plugged in audio accessory, if the device implementation supports a microphone, and broadcast the android.intent.action.HEADSET_PLUG with the extra value microphone set as 1.

• MUST be capable of driving at least 150mV ± 10% of output voltage on a 32 Ohm speaker impedance.
• MUST have a microphone bias voltage between 1.8V ~ 2.9V.

7.8.3. Near-Ultrasound

Near-Ultrasound audio is the 18.5 kHz to 20 kHz band. Device implementations MUST correctly report the support of near-ultrasound audio capability via the AudioManager.getProperty API as follows:

• If PROPERTY_SUPPORT_MIC_NEAR_ULTRASOUND is "true", then the following requirements must be met by the VOICE_RECOGNITION and UNPROCESSED audio sources:
  • The microphone's mean power response in the 18.5 kHz to 20 kHz band MUST be no more than 15 dB below the response at 2 kHz.
  • The microphone's unweighted signal to noise ratio over 18.5 kHz to 20 kHz for a 19 kHz tone at -26 dBFS MUST be no lower than 50 dB.
• If PROPERTY_SUPPORT_SPEAKER_NEAR_ULTRASOUND is "true", then the speaker's mean response in 18.5 kHz - 20 kHz MUST be no lower than 40 dB below the response at 2 kHz.

7.9. واقعیت مجازی

Android includes APIs and facilities to build "Virtual Reality" (VR) applications including high quality mobile VR experiences. Device implementations MUST properly implement these APIs and behaviors, as detailed in this section.

7.9.1. Virtual Reality Mode

Android handheld device implementations that support a mode for VR applications that handles stereoscopic rendering of notifications and disable monocular system UI components while a VR application has user focus MUST declare android.software.vr.mode feature. Devices declaring this feature MUST include an application implementing android.service.vr.VrListenerService that can be enabled by VR applications via android.app.Activity#setVrModeEnabled .

7.9.2. Virtual Reality High Performance

• Device implementations MUST have at least 2 physical cores.
• Device implementations MUST declare android.software.vr.mode feature.
• Device implementations MAY provide an exclusive core to the foreground application and MAY support the Process.getExclusiveCores API to return the numbers of the cpu cores that are exclusive to the top foreground application. If exclusive core is supported then the core MUST not allow any other userspace processes to run on it (except device drivers used by the application), but MAY allow some kernel processes to run as necessary.
• Device implementations MUST support sustained performance mode.

• Device implementations MUST support Bluetooth 4.2 and Bluetooth LE Data Length Extension section 7.4.3 .

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. Android Watch devices SHOULD and other type of device implementations MUST meet the following criteria.

8.1. User Experience Consistency

Device implementations MUST provide a smooth user interface by ensuring a consistent frame rate and response times for applications and games. Device implementations MUST meet the following requirements:

• Consistent frame latency . Inconsistent frame latency or a delay to render frames MUST NOT happen more often than 5 frames in a second, and SHOULD be below 1 frames in a second.
• User interface latency . Device implementations MUST ensure low latency user experience by scrolling a list of 10K list entries as defined by the Android Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) in less than 36 secs.
• Task switching . When multiple applications have been launched, re-launching an already-running application after it has been launched MUST take less than 1 second.

8.2. File I/O Access Performance

Device implementations MUST ensure internal storage file access performance consistency for read and write operations.

• Sequential write . Device implementations MUST ensure a sequential write performance of at least 5MB/s for a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
• Random write . Device implementations MUST ensure a random write performance of at least 0.5MB/s for a 256MB file using 4KB write buffer.
• Sequential read . Device implementations MUST ensure a sequential read performance of at least 15MB/s for a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
• Random read . Device implementations MUST ensure a random read performance of at least 3.5MB/s for a 256MB file using 4KB write buffer.

8.3. Power-Saving Modes

Android 6.0 introduced App Standby and Doze power-saving modes to optimize battery usage. All Apps exempted from these modes MUST be made visible to the end user. Further, the triggering, maintenance, wakeup algorithms and the use of global system settings of these power-saving modes MUST not deviate from the Android Open Source Project.

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), but if it implements S3 and S4 power states, it can only enter these states when closing a lid that is physically part of the device.

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. Therefore, device implementations:

• MUST be able to track hardware component power usage and attribute that power usage to specific applications. Specifically, implementations:
  • MUST 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.
  • MUST report all power consumption values in milliampere hours (mAh).
  • SHOULD be attributed to the hardware component itself if unable to attribute hardware component power usage to an application.
  • MUST report CPU power consumption per each process's UID. The Android Open Source Project meets the requirement through the uid_cputime kernel module implementation.
• MUST make this power usage available via the adb shell dumpsys batterystats shell command to the app developer.
• MUST honor the android.intent.action.POWER_USAGE_SUMMARY intent and display a settings menu that shows this power usage.

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.

Device implementations SHOULD support Sustained Performance Mode which can provide the top foreground application a consistent level of performance for a prolonged amount of time when requested through the Window.setSustainedPerformanceMode() API method. A Device implementation MUST report the support of Sustained Performance Mode accurately through the PowerManager.isSustainedPerformanceModeSupported() API method.

Device implementations with two or more CPU cores SHOULD provide at least one exclusive core that can be reserved by the top foreground application. If provided, implementations MUST meet the following requirements:

• Implementations MUST report through the Process.getExclusiveCores() API method the id numbers of the exclusive cores that can be reserved by the top foreground application.
• Device implementations 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 a device implementation does not support an exclusive core, it MUST return an empty list through the Process.getExclusiveCores() API method.

9. Security Model Compatibility

Device implementations 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. Device implementations MUST support installation of self-signed applications without requiring any additional permissions/certificates from any third parties/authorities. Specifically, compatible devices MUST support the security mechanisms described in the follow subsections.

9.1. مجوزها

Device implementations MUST support the Android permissions model as defined in the Android developer documentation. Specifically, implementations MUST enforce each permission defined as described in the SDK documentation; no permissions may be omitted, altered, or ignored. Implementations MAY add additional permissions, provided the new permission ID strings are not in the android.* namespace.

Permissions with a protectionLevel of 'PROTECTION_FLAG_PRIVILEGED' MUST only be granted to apps preloaded in the allowlisted privileged path(s) of the system image, such as the system/priv-app path in the AOSP implementation.

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

• 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.
• MUST have one and only one implementation of both user interfaces.
• MUST NOT grant any runtime permissions to preinstalled apps unless:
  • the user's consent can be obtained before the application uses it
  • the runtime permissions are associated with an intent pattern for which the preinstalled application is set as the default handler

9.2. UID and Process Isolation

Device implementations MUST support the Android application sandbox model, in which each application runs as a unique Unixstyle UID and in a separate process. Device implementations 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

Device implementations MUST support the Android file access permissions model as defined in the Security and Permissions reference .

9.4. Alternate Execution Environments

Device implementations MAY include runtime environments that execute applications using some other software or technology than the Dalvik Executable Format or native code. However, such alternate execution environments MUST NOT compromise the Android security model or the security of installed Android applications, as described in this section.

Alternate runtimes MUST themselves be Android applications, and abide by the standard Android security model, as described elsewhere in section 9 .

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.

Alternate runtimes MUST NOT permit applications to make use of features protected by Android permissions restricted to system applications.

Alternate runtimes MUST abide by the Android sandbox model. Specifically, alternate runtimes:

• SHOULD install apps via the PackageManager into separate Android sandboxes (Linux user IDs, etc.).
• MAY provide a single Android sandbox shared by all applications using the alternate runtime.
• 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.
• MUST NOT launch with, grant, or be granted access to the sandboxes corresponding to other Android applications.
• MUST NOT be launched with, be granted, or grant to other applications any privileges of the superuser (root), or of any other user ID.

The .apk files of alternate runtimes MAY be included in the system image of a device implementation, but MUST be signed with a key distinct from the key used to sign other applications included with the device implementation.

When installing applications, alternate runtimes MUST obtain user consent for the Android permissions used by the application. If 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. If 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.

9.5. پشتیبانی چند کاربره

Android includes support for multiple users and provides support for full user isolation. Device implementations MAY enable multiple users, but when enabled MUST meet the following requirements related to multi-user support :

• Android Automotive device implementations with multi-user support enabled MUST include a guest account that allows all functions provided by the vehicle system without requiring a user to log in.
• Device implementations that do not declare the android.hardware.telephony feature flag MUST support restricted profiles, a feature that allows device owners to manage additional users and their capabilities on the device. With restricted profiles, device owners can quickly set up separate environments for additional users to work in, with the ability to manage finer-grained restrictions in the apps that are available in those environments.
• Conversely device implementations that declare the android.hardware.telephony feature flag MUST NOT support restricted profiles but MUST align with the AOSP implementation of controls to enable /disable other users from accessing the voice calls and SMS.
• Device implementations 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.
• Each user instance on an Android device MUST have separate and isolated external storage directories. Device implementations MAY store multiple users' data on the same volume or filesystem. However, the device implementation MUST ensure that applications owned by and running on behalf a given user cannot list, read, or write to data owned by any other user. Note that removable media, such as SD card slots, can allow one user to access another's data by means of a host PC. For this reason, device implementations that use removable media for the external storage APIs MUST encrypt the contents of the SD card if multiuser is enabled using a key stored only on non-removable media accessible only to the system. 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. Accordingly, device implementations MAY but SHOULD NOT enable multi-user if they use removable media for primary external storage.

9.6. Premium SMS Warning

Android includes support for warning users of any outgoing premium SMS message . Premium SMS messages are text messages sent to a service registered with a carrier that may incur a charge to the user. Device implementations that declare support for android.hardware.telephony MUST warn users before sending a SMS message to numbers identified by regular expressions defined in /data/misc/sms/codes.xml file in the device. The upstream Android Open Source Project provides an implementation that satisfies this requirement.

9.7. Kernel Security Features

The Android Sandbox includes features that use the Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) mandatory access control (MAC) system, seccomp sandboxing, and other security features in the Linux kernel. SELinux or any other security features implemented below the Android framework:

• MUST maintain compatibility with existing applications.
• MUST NOT have a visible user interface when a security violation is detected and successfully blocked, but MAY have a visible user interface when an unblocked security violation occurs resulting in a successful exploit.
• SHOULD NOT be user or developer configurable.

If any API for configuration of policy is exposed to an application that can affect another application (such as a Device Administration API), the API MUST NOT allow configurations that break compatibility.

Devices MUST implement SELinux or, if using a kernel other than Linux, an equivalent mandatory access control system. Devices MUST also meet the following requirements, which are satisfied by the reference implementation in the upstream Android Open Source Project.

پیاده سازی دستگاه:

• MUST set SELinux to global enforcing mode.
• MUST configure all domains in enforcing mode. No permissive mode domains are allowed, including domains specific to a device/vendor.
• MUST NOT modify, omit, or replace the neverallow rules present within the system/sepolicy folder provided in the upstream Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and the policy MUST compile with all neverallow rules present, for both AOSP SELinux domains as well as device/vendor specific domains.
• MUST split the media framework into multiple processes so that it is possible to more narrowly grant access for each process as described in the Android Open Source Project site.

Device implementations SHOULD retain the default SELinux policy provided in the system/sepolicy folder of the upstream Android Open Source Project and only further add to this policy for their own device-specific configuration. Device implementations MUST be compatible with the upstream Android Open Source Project.

Devices 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 .

9.8. حریم خصوصی

If the device implements functionality in the system that captures the contents displayed on the screen and/or records the audio stream played on the device, it MUST continuously notify the user whenever this functionality is enabled and actively capturing/recording.

If a device implementation has a mechanism that routes network data traffic through a proxy server or VPN gateway by default (for example, preloading a VPN service with android.permission.CONTROL_VPN granted), the device implementation MUST ask for the user's consent before enabling that mechanism, unless that VPN is enabled by the Device Policy Controller via the DevicePolicyManager.setAlwaysOnVpnPackage() , in which case the user does not need to provide a separate consent, but MUST only be notified.

Device implementations MUST ship with an empty user-added Certificate Authority (CA) store, and MUST preinstall the same root certificates for the system-trusted CA store as provided in the upstream Android Open Source Project.

When devices are routed through a VPN, or a user root CA is installed, the implementation MUST display a warning indicating the network traffic may be monitored to the user.

If a device implementation has a USB port with USB peripheral mode support, it MUST present a user interface asking for the user's consent before allowing access to the contents of the shared storage over the USB port.

9.9. رمزگذاری ذخیره سازی داده ها

If the device implementation supports a secure lock screen as described in section 9.11.1, then the device MUST support data storage encryption of 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.

For device implementations supporting data storage encryption and with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) crypto performance above 50MiB/sec, the data storage encryption MUST be enabled by default at the time the user has completed the out-of-box setup experience. If a device implementation is already launched on an earlier Android version with encryption disabled by default, such a device cannot meet the requirement through a system software update and thus MAY be exempted.

Device implementations SHOULD meet the above data storage encryption requirement via implementing File Based Encryption (FBE).

9.9.1. Direct Boot

All devices MUST implement the Direct Boot mode APIs even if they do not support Storage Encryption. In particular, the 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. File Based Encryption

Device implementations supporting FBE:

• 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 LOCKED_BOOT_COMPLETED message is broadcasted.
• 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. Device implementations MUST NOT offer any method to unlock the CE protected storage without the user supplied credentials.
• MUST support Verified Boot and ensure that DE keys are cryptographically bound to the device's hardware root of trust.
• MUST support encrypting file contents using AES with a key length of 256-bits in XTS mode.
• MUST support encrypting file name using AES with a key length of 256-bits in CBC-CTS mode.
• MAY support alternative ciphers, key lengths and modes for file content and file name encryption, but MUST use the mandatorily supported ciphers, key lengths and modes by default.
• SHOULD make preloaded essential apps (eg Alarm, Phone, Messenger) Direct Boot aware.

The keys protecting CE and DE storage areas:

• MUST be cryptographically bound to a hardware-backed Keystore. CE keys must be bound to a user's lock screen credentials. If the user has specified no lock screen credentials then the CE keys MUST be bound to a default passcode.
• MUST be unique and distinct, in other words no user's CE or DE key may match any other user's CE or DE keys.

The upstream Android Open Source project provides a preferred implementation of this feature based on the Linux kernel ext4 encryption feature.

9.9.3. Full Disk Encryption

Device implementations supporting full disk encryption (FDE). MUST use AES with a key of 128-bits (or greater) and a mode designed for storage (for example, AES-XTS, AES-CBC-ESSIV). The encryption key MUST NOT be written to storage at any time without being encrypted. Other than when in active use, the encryption key SHOULD be AES encrypted with the lock screen credentials stretched using a slow stretching algorithm (eg PBKDF2 or scrypt). If the user has not specified a lock screen credentials or has disabled use of the passcode for encryption, the system SHOULD use a default passcode to wrap the encryption key. If the device provides a hardware-backed keystore, the password stretching algorithm MUST be cryptographically bound to that keystore. The encryption key MUST NOT be sent off the device (even when wrapped with the user passcode and/or hardware bound key). The upstream Android Open Source project provides a preferred implementation of this feature based on the Linux kernel feature dm-crypt.

9.10. یکپارچگی دستگاه

The following requirements ensures there is transparancy to the status of the device integrity.

Device implementations MUST correctly report through the System API method PersistentDataBlockManager.getFlashLockState() whether their bootloader state permits flashing of the system image. The FLASH_LOCK_UNKNOWN state is reserved for device implementations upgrading from an earlier version of Android where this new system API method did not exist.

Verified boot is a feature that guarantees the integrity of the device software. If a device implementation supports the feature, it MUST:

• Declare the platform feature flag android.software.verified_boot.
• Perform verification on every boot sequence.
• Start verification from an immutable hardware key that is the root of trust and go all the way up to the system partition.
• 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.
• Use verification algorithms as strong as current recommendations from NIST for hashing algorithms (SHA-256) and public key sizes (RSA-2048).
• 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.
• MUST NOT allow verified partitions on the device to be modified unless the user has explicitly unlocked the boot loader.

The upstream Android Open Source Project provides a preferred implementation of this feature based on the Linux kernel feature dm-verity.

Starting from Android 6.0, device implementations with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) crypto performance above 50 MiB/seconds MUST support verified boot for device integrity.

If a device implementation is already launched without supporting verified boot on an earlier version of Android, such a device can not add support for this feature with a system software update and thus are exempted from the requirement.

9.11. کلیدها و اعتبارنامه ها

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 .

All Android device implementations MUST meet the following requirements:

• SHOULD not limit the number of keys that can be generated, and MUST at least allow more than 8,192 keys to be imported.
• The lock screen authentication MUST rate limit attempts and MUST have an exponential backoff algorithm. Beyond 150 failed attempts, the delay MUST be at least 24 hours per attempt.
• When the device implementation supports a secure lock screen it MUST back up the keystore implementation with secure hardware and meet following requirements:
  • MUST have hardware backed implementations of RSA, AES, ECDSA and HMAC cryptographic algorithms and MD5, SHA1, SHA-2 Family hash functions to properly support the Android Keystore system's supported algorithms .
  • MUST perform the lock screen authentication in the secure hardware and only when successful allow the authentication-bound keys to be used. The upstream Android Open Source Project provides the Gatekeeper Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) that can be used to satisfy this requirement.

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 hardware-backed keystore, unless it declares the android.hardware.fingerprint feature which requires a hardware-backed keystore.

9.11.1. Secure Lock Screen

Device implementations MAY add or modify the authentication methods to unlock the lock screen, but MUST still meet the following requirements:

• The authentication method, if based on a known secret, MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen unless it meets all following requirements:
  • The entropy of the shortest allowed length of inputs MUST be greater than 10 bits.
  • The maximum entropy of all possible inputs MUST be greater than 18 bits.
  • MUST not replace any of the existing authentication methods (PIN, pattern, password) implemented and provided in AOSP.
  • 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_SOMETHING .
• The authenticaion method, if based on a physical token or the location, MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen unless it meets all following requirements:
  • It MUST have a fall-back mechanism to use one of the primary authentication methods which is based on a known secret and meets the requirements to be treated as a secure lock screen.
  • It MUST be disabled and only allow the primary authentication 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 or the DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality() method with a more restrictive quality constant than PASSWORD_QUALITY_UNSPECIFIED .
• The authentication method, if based on biometrics, MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen unless it meets all following requirements:
  • It MUST have a fall-back mechanism to use one of the primary authentication methods which is based on a known secret and meets the requirements to be treated as a secure lock screen.
  • It MUST be disabled and only allow the primary authentication to unlock the screen when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the keguard feature policy by calling the method DevicePolicyManager.setKeyguardDisabledFeatures(KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT) .
  • It MUST have a false acceptance rate that is equal or stronger than what is required for a fingerprint sensor as described in section 7.3.10, or otherwise MUST be disabled and only allow the primary authentication to unlock the screen 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_BIOMETRIC_WEAK .
• If the authentication method can not be treated as a secure lock screen, it:
  • MUST return false for both the KeyguardManager.isKeyguardSecure() and the KeyguardManager.isDeviceSecure() methods.
  • 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_UNSPECIFIED .
  • MUST NOT reset the password expiration timers set by DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordExpirationTimeout() .
  • MUST NOT authenticate access to keystores if the application has called KeyGenParameterSpec.Builder.setUserAuthenticationRequired(true) ).
• If the authentication method is based on a physical token, the location, or biometrics that has higher false acceptance rate than what is required for fingerprint sensors as described in section 7.3.10, then it:
  • MUST NOT reset the password expiration timers set by DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordExpirationTimeout() .
  • MUST NOT authenticate access to keystores if the application has called KeyGenParameterSpec.Builder.setUserAuthenticationRequired(true) .

9.12. Data Deletion

Devices MUST provide users with a mechanism to perform a "Factory Data Reset" that allows logical and physical deletion of all data except for the following:

• The system image
• Any operating system files required by the system image

All user-generated data MUST be deleted. This MUST satisfy relevant industry standards for data deletion such as NIST SP800-88. This MUST be used for the implementation of the wipeData() API (part of the Android Device Administration API) described in section 3.9 Device Administration .

Devices MAY provide a fast data wipe that conducts a logical data erase.

9.13. Safe Boot Mode

Android provides a mode enabling 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.

Android device implementations are STRONGLY RECOMENDED to implement Safe Boot Mode and meet following requirements:

• Device implementations SHOULD provide the user an option to enter Safe Boot Mode from the boot menu which is reachable through a workflow that is different from that of normal boot.

• Device implementations 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 for when the third party app is a Device Policy Controller and has set the UserManager.DISALLOW_SAFE_BOOT flag as true.

• Device implementations MUST provide the user the capability to uninstall any third-party apps within Safe Mode.

9.14. Automotive Vehicle System Isolation

Android Automotive devices are expected to exchange data with critical vehicle subsystems, eg, by using the vehicle HAL to send and receive messages over vehicle networks such as CAN bus. Android Automotive device implementations MUST implement security features below the Android framework layers to prevent malicious or unintentional interaction between the Android framework or third-party apps and vehicle subsystems. These security features are as follows:

• Gatekeeping messages from Android framework vehicle subsystems, eg, allowlisting permitted message types and message sources.
• Watchdog against denial of service attacks from the Android framework or third-party apps. This guards against malicious software flooding the vehicle network with traffic, which may lead to malfunctioning vehicle subsystems.

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. Compatibility Test Suite

Device implementations MUST pass the Android Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) available from the Android Open Source Project, using the final shipping software on the device. Additionally, device implementers SHOULD use the reference implementation in the Android Open Source tree as much as possible, and 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 7.0. Device implementations MUST pass the latest CTS version available at the time the device software is completed.

10.2. تأیید کننده CTS

Device implementations MUST correctly execute all applicable cases in the CTS Verifier. 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.

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

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

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.

However, if the device implementation includes support for an unmetered data connection such as 802.11 or Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network) profile, it MUST support OTA downloads with offline update via reboot.

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.

For device implementations that are launching with Android 7.0 and later, the update mechanism SHOULD support verifying that the system image is binary identical to 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.

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, 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. To facilitate this, the system update subsystem for devices that report android.software.device_admin MUST implement the behavior described in the SystemUpdatePolicy class.
