<p>API Level: {@sdkPlatformApiLevel}</p>
|
||||
<p>Along with new features and capabilities, Android 5.0 includes a variety of changes
|
||||
API changes,
|
||||
behavior changes, system enhancements, and bug fixes. This document highlights
|
||||
some of the key changes that you should be understand and account for in your apps.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>f you have previously published an app for Android, be aware that your app
|
||||
might be affected by these changes in Android 5.0.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<p>For a high-level look at the new platform features, instead
|
||||
see the
|
||||
<a href="{@docRoot}about/versions/lollipop.html">Android Lollipop
|
||||
highlights</a>.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2 id="ART">Android Runtime (ART)</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In Android 5.0 the ART runtime replaces Dalvik as the platform default. The ART runtime was
|
||||
introduced in Android 4.4 on an experimental basis.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>For an overview of ART's new features, see
|
||||
<a href="https://source.android.com/devices/tech/dalvik/art.html">Introducing
|
||||
ART</a>. Some of the major new features are:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation</li>
|
||||
<li>Improved garbage collection (GC)</li>
|
||||
<li>Improved debugging support</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Most Android apps should just work without any changes under ART. However, some
|
||||
techniques that work on Dalvik do not work on ART. For information about the
|
||||
most important issues, see
|
||||
<a href="{@docRoot}guide/practices/verifying-apps-art.html">Verifying App
|
||||
Behavior on the Android Runtime (ART)</a>. Pay particular attention if:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Your app uses Java Native Interface (JNI) to run C/C++ code.</li>
|
||||
<li>You use development tools that generate non-standard code (such as some
|
||||
obfuscators).</li>
|
||||
<li>You use techniques that are incompatible with compacting garbage
|
||||
collection. (ART does not currently implement compacting GC, but
|
||||
compacting GC is under development in the Android Open Source
|
||||
Project.)</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2 id="BehaviorNotifications">Notifications</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Make sure your notifications take these Android 5.0 changes into account.
|
||||
To learn more about designing your notifications for Android 5.0 and higher,
|
||||
see the <a href="{@docRoot}design/patterns/notifications.html">notifications design guide</a>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3 id="NotificationsMaterialDesignStyle">Material design style</h3>
|
||||
<p>Notifications are drawn with dark text atop white (or very light) backgrounds
|
||||
to match the new material design widgets. Make sure that all your
|
||||
notifications look right with the new color scheme. If your notifications
|
||||
look wrong, fix them:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Use {@link android.app.Notification.Builder#setColor(int) setColor()}
|
||||
to set an accent color in a circle behind your icon image. </li>
|
||||
<li>Update or remove assets that involve color. The system ignores all
|
||||
non-alpha channels in action icons and in the main notification icon. You
|
||||
should assume that these icons will be alpha-only. The system draws
|
||||
notification icons in white and action icons in dark gray.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3 id="NotificationsSoundVibration">Sound and vibration</h3>
|
||||
<p>If you are currently adding sounds and vibrations to your notifications by
|
||||
using the {@link android.media.Ringtone}, {@link android.media.MediaPlayer},
|
||||
or {@link android.os.Vibrator} classes, remove this code so that
|
||||
the system can present notifications correctly in
|
||||
<em>priority</em> mode. Instead, use
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder} methods to add sounds and
|
||||
vibration.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Setting the device to
|
||||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#RINGER_MODE_SILENT RINGER_MODE_SILENT} causes
|
||||
the device to enter the new priority mode. The device leaves priority
|
||||
mode if you set it to
|
||||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#RINGER_MODE_NORMAL RINGER_MODE_NORMAL} or
|
||||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#RINGER_MODE_NORMAL RINGER_MODE_VIBRATE}.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Previously, Android used {@link android.media.AudioManager#STREAM_MUSIC STREAM_MUSIC}
|
||||
as the master stream to control volume on tablet devices. In Android 5.0, the
|
||||
master volume stream for both phone and tablet devices is now unified, and
|
||||
is controlled by {@link android.media.AudioManager#STREAM_RING STREAM_RING} or
|
||||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#STREAM_NOTIFICATION STREAM_NOTIFICATION}.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3 id="NotificationsLockscreenVisibility">Lock screen visibility</h3>
|
||||
<p>By default, notifications now appear on the user's lock screen in Android 5.0.
|
||||
Users can choose to protect sensitive information from being exposed, in which
|
||||
case the system automatically redacts the text displayed by the notification. To
|
||||
customize this redacted notification, use
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder#setPublicVersion(android.app.Notification)
|
||||
setPublicVersion()}.</p>
|
||||
<p>If the notification does not contain personal information, or if you want to
|
||||
allow media playback control on the notification, call the
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder#setVisibility(int) setVisibility()}
|
||||
method and set the notification's visibility level to
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_PUBLIC VISIBILITY_PUBLIC}.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3 id="NotificationsMediaPlayback">Media playback</h3>
|
||||
<p>If you are implementing notifications that present media playback
|
||||
status or transport controls, consider using the new
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.MediaStyle} template instead of a custom
|
||||
{@link android.widget.RemoteViews.RemoteView} object. Whichever approach you
|
||||
choose, make sure to set the notification's visibility to
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_PUBLIC VISIBILITY_PUBLIC} so that
|
||||
your controls are accessible from the lock screen. Note that beginning in
|
||||
Android 5.0, the system no longer shows
|
||||
{@link android.media.RemoteControlClient} objects on the lock screen. For more
|
||||
information, see
|
||||
<a href="#BehaviorMediaControl">If your app uses RemoteControlClient</a>.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3 id="NotificationsHeadsup">Heads-up notification</h3>
|
||||
<p>Notifications may now appear in a small floating window (also called a
|
||||
heads-up notification) when the device is active (that is, the device is
|
||||
unlocked and its screen is on). These notifications appear similar to the
|
||||
compact form of your notification, except that the heads-up notification also
|
||||
shows action buttons. Users can act on, or dismiss, a heads-up notification
|
||||
without leaving the current app.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Examples of conditions that may trigger heads-up notifications include:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>The user's activity is in fullscreen mode (the app uses
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification#fullScreenIntent})</li>
|
||||
<li>The notification has high priority and uses ringtones or vibrations</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If your app implements notifications under any of those scenarios, make sure
|
||||
that heads-up notifications are presented correctly.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2 id="BehaviorMediaControl">Media Controls and RemoteControlClient</h2>
|
||||
<p>The {@link android.media.RemoteControlClient} class is now deprecated. Switch
|
||||
to the new {@link android.media.session.MediaSession} API as
|
||||
soon as possible.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Lock screens in Android 5.0 do not show transport controls for
|
||||
your {@link android.media.session.MediaSession} or
|
||||
{@link android.media.RemoteControlClient}. Instead, your app can provide
|
||||
media playback control from the lock screen through a notification. This
|
||||
gives your app more control over the presentation of media buttons, while
|
||||
providing a consistent experience for users across locked and
|
||||
unlocked devices.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Android 5.0 introduces a new
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.MediaStyle} template for this purpose.
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.MediaStyle} converts notification
|
||||
actions that you added with
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder#addAction(int, java.lang.CharSequence,
|
||||
android.app.PendingIntent)
|
||||
Notification.Builder.addAction()} into compact buttons embedded in your app's
|
||||
media playback notifications. Pass your session token to the
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.MediaStyle#setMediaSession(android.media.session.MediaSession.Token)
|
||||
setSession()} method to inform the system that this notification controls an
|
||||
ongoing media session.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Make sure to set the notification's visibility to
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_PUBLIC VISIBILITY_PUBLIC}
|
||||
to mark the notification as safe to show on any lock screen (secure or
|
||||
otherwise). For more information, see
|
||||
<a href="#LockscreenNotifications">Lock screen notifications</a>.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To display media playback controls if your app is running on the
|
||||
Android <a href="{@docRoot}tv/index.html">TV</a> or
|
||||
<a href="{@docRoot}wear/index.html">Wear</a> platform, implement the
|
||||
{@link android.media.session.MediaSession} class. You should also implement
|
||||
{@link android.media.session.MediaSession} if your app needs to receive media
|
||||
button events on Android devices.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2 id="BehaviorGetRecentTasks">getRecentTasks()</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>With the introduction of the new <em>concurrent documents and activities
|
||||
tasks</em> feature in Android 5.0 (see <a href="#Recents">Concurrent
|
||||
documents and activities in the recents screen</a> below),
|
||||
the {@link android.app.ActivityManager#getRecentTasks
|
||||
ActivityManager.getRecentTasks()} method is now deprecated to improve user
|
||||
privacy. For backward compatibility, this method still returns a small subset of
|
||||
its data, including the calling application’s own tasks and possibly some other
|
||||
non-sensitive tasks (such as Home). If your app is using this method to retrieve
|
||||
its own tasks, use {@link android.app.ActivityManager#getAppTasks() getAppTasks()}
|
||||
instead to retrieve that information.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2 id="64BitSupport">64-Bit Support in the Android NDK</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Android 5.0 introduces support for 64-bit systems. The 64-bit enhancement
|
||||
increases address space and improves performance, while still supporting
|
||||
existing 32-bit apps fully. The 64-bit support also improves the performance of
|
||||
OpenSSL for cryptography. In addition, this release introduces new native
|
||||
media NDK APIs, as well as native OpenGL ES (GLES) 3.1 support.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To use the 64-bit support provided in Android 5.0, download and install NDK
|
||||
Revision 10c from the
|
||||
<a href="{@docRoot}tools/sdk/ndk/index.html">Android NDK page</a>. Refer to the
|
||||
Revision 10c <a href="{@docRoot}tools/sdk/ndk/index.html#Revisions">release notes</a>
|
||||
for more information about important changes and bug fixes to the NDK.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2 id="BindService">Binding to a Service</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The
|
||||
{@link android.content.Context#bindService(android.content.Intent, android.content.ServiceConnection, int) Context.bindService()}
|
||||
method now requires an explicit {@link android.content.Intent},
|
||||
and throws an exception if given an implicit intent.
|
||||
To ensure your app is secure, use an explicit intent when starting or binding
|
||||
your {@link android.app.Service}, and do not declare intent filters for the service.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2 id="BehaviorWebView">WebView</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Android 5.0 changes the default behavior for your app.</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><strong>If your app targets API level 21 or higher:</strong>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>The system
|
||||
blocks <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Security/MixedContent"
|
||||
class="external-link">mixed content</a> and third party cookies by default. To allow mixed
|
||||
content and third party cookies, use the
|
||||
{@link android.webkit.WebSettings#setMixedContentMode(int) setMixedContentMode()}
|
||||
and {@link android.webkit.CookieManager#setAcceptThirdPartyCookies(android.webkit.WebView, boolean) setAcceptThirdPartyCookies()}
|
||||
methods respectively.</li>
|
||||
<li>The system now intelligently chooses portions of the HTML
|
||||
document to draw. This new default behavior helps to reduce memory
|
||||
footprint and increase performance. If you want to
|
||||
render the whole document at once, disable this optimization by calling
|
||||
{@link android.webkit.WebView#enableSlowWholeDocumentDraw()}.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li><strong>If your app targets API levels lower than 21:</strong> The system
|
||||
allows mixed content and third party cookies, and always renders the whole
|
||||
document at once.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2 id="custom_permissions">Uniqueness Requirement for Custom Permissions</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
As documented in the <a href=
|
||||
"{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/manifest-intro.html#perms">Permissions</a>
|
||||
overview, Android apps can define custom permissions as a means of managing
|
||||
access to components in a proprietary way, without using the platform’s
|
||||
pre-defined system permissions. Apps define custom permissions in <a href=
|
||||
"http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html"><code>
|
||||
<permission></code></a> elements declared in their manifest files.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
There are a small number of scenarios where defining custom permissions is a
|
||||
legitimate and secure approach. However, creating custom permissions is
|
||||
sometimes unnecessary and can even introduce potential risk to an app,
|
||||
depending on the protection level assigned to the permissions.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Android 5.0 includes a behavior change to ensure
|
||||
that only one app can define a given custom permission, unless signed with the
|
||||
same key as other apps defining the permission.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>
|
||||
Apps using duplicate custom permissions
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Any app can define any custom permission it wants, so it can happen
|
||||
that multiple apps might <strong>define the same custom permission</strong>.
|
||||
For example, if two apps offer a similar capability, they might derive the
|
||||
same logical name for their custom permissions. Apps might also incorporate
|
||||
common public libraries or code examples that themselves include the same
|
||||
custom permission definitions.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In Android 4.4 and earlier, users were able to install multiple such
|
||||
apps on a given device, although the system assigned the protection level
|
||||
specified by the first-installed app.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Starting in Android 5.0, the system enforces a new
|
||||
<strong>uniqueness restriction on custom permissions</strong> for
|
||||
apps that are signed with different keys. Now only one app on a device can
|
||||
define a given custom permission (as determined by its name), unless the
|
||||
other app defining the permission is signed with the same key. If the user
|
||||
tries to install an app with a duplicate custom permission and is not signed
|
||||
with the same key as the resident app that defines the permission, the system
|
||||
blocks the installation.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>
|
||||
Considerations for your app
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In Android 5.0 and later, apps can continue to define their own custom
|
||||
permissions just as before and to request custom permissions from other apps
|
||||
through the <code><uses-permission></code> mechanism. However with the
|
||||
new requirement introduced in Android 5.0, you should carefully assess
|
||||
possible impacts on your app.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Here are some points to consider:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Does your app declare any <a href=
|
||||
"http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html">
|
||||
<code><permission></code></a> elements in its manifest? If so, are
|
||||
they actually necessary to the proper function of your app or service? Or
|
||||
could you use a system default permission instead?
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>If you have <a href=
|
||||
"http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html">
|
||||
<code><permission></code></a> elements in your app, do you know where
|
||||
they came from?
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>Do you actually intend for other apps to request your custom permissions
|
||||
through <a href=
|
||||
"http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-permission-element.html">
|
||||
<code><uses-permission></code></a>?
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>Are you using boilerplate or example code in your app that includes
|
||||
<a href=
|
||||
"http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html">
|
||||
<code><permission></code></a> elements? Are those permission elements
|
||||
actually necessary?
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>Do your custom permissions use names that are simple or based on common
|
||||
terms that other apps might share?
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>
|
||||
New installs and updates
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
As mentioned above, for new installs and updates of your app on devices
|
||||
running Android 4.4 or earlier are unaffected and there is no change in
|
||||
behavior. For new installs and updates on devices running Android 5.0 or
|
||||
later, the system <strong>prevents installation of your app</strong> if it
|
||||
defines a custom permission that is already defined by an existing resident
|
||||
app.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>
|
||||
Existing installs with Android 5.0 system update
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If your app uses custom permissions and is widely distributed and installed,
|
||||
there’s a chance that it will be affected when users receive update their
|
||||
devices to Android 5.0. After the system update is installed, the system
|
||||
revalidates installed apps, including a check of their custom permissions. If
|
||||
your app defines a custom permission that is already defined by another app
|
||||
that has already been validated, and your app is not signed with the same key
|
||||
as the other app, the system <strong>does not re-install your app</strong>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>
|
||||
Recommendations
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
On devices running Android 5.0 or later, we recommend that you examine your

TLS/SSL Default Configuration Changes
|
||||
</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Android 5.0 introduces changes the default TLS/SSL configuration used by apps
|
||||
for HTTPS and other TLS/SSL traffic:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.1 protocols are now enabled,</li>
|
||||
<li>AES-GCM (AEAD) cipher suites are now enabled,</li>
|
||||
<li>MD5, 3DES, export, and static key ECDH cipher suites are now disabled,</li>
|
||||
<li>Forward Secrecy cipher suites (ECDHE and DHE) are preferred.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
These changes may lead to breakages in HTTPS or TLS/SSL connectivity in a
|
||||
small number of cases listed below.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Note that the security ProviderInstaller from Google Play services already
|
||||
offers these changes across Android platform versions back to Android 2.3.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>
|
||||
Server does not support any of the enabled ciphers suites
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
For example, a server might support only 3DES or MD5 cipher suites. The
|
||||
preferred fix is to improve the server’s configuration to enable stronger and
|
||||
more modern cipher suites and protocols. Ideally, TLSv1.2 and AES-GCM should
|
||||
be enabled, and Forward Secrecy cipher suites (ECDHE, DHE) should be enabled
|
||||
and preferred.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
An alternative is to modify the app to use a custom SSLSocketFactory to
|
||||
communicate with the server. The factory should be designed to create
|
||||
SSLSocket instances which have some of the cipher suites required by the
|
||||
server enabled in addition to default cipher suites.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>
|
||||
App is making wrong assumptions about cipher suites used to connect to server
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
For example, some apps contain a custom X509TrustManager that breaks because
|
||||
it expects the authType parameter to be RSA but encounters ECDHE_RSA or
|
||||
DHE_RSA.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>
|
||||
Server is intolerant to TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2 or new TLS extensions
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
For example, the TLS/SSL handshake with a server is erroneously rejected or
|
||||
stalls. The preferred fix is to upgrade the server to comply with the TLS/SSL
|
||||
protocol. This will make the server successfully negotiate these newer
|
||||
protocols or negotiate TLSv1 or older protocols and ignore TLS extensions it
|
||||
does not understand. In some cases disabling TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 on the
|
||||
server may work as a stopgap measure until the server software is upgraded.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
An alternative is to modify the app to use a custom SSLSocketFactory to
|
||||
communicate with the server. The factory should be designed to create
|
||||
SSLSocket instances with only those protocols enabled which are correctly
|
||||
supported by the server.

<p>The 4.4 release introduced a new, experimental Android runtime, ART. Under
|

4.4, ART was optional, and the default runtime remained Dalvik. With Android
|

5.0, ART is now the default runtime.</p>
|

<p>For an overview of ART's new features, see
|
||||
<a href="https://source.android.com/devices/tech/dalvik/art.html">Introducing

ART</a>. Some of the major new features are:</p>
|

<ul>
|
||||
<li>Ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation</li>
|
||||
<li>Improved garbage collection (GC)</li>
|
||||
<li>Improved debugging support</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|

|

<p>Most Android apps should just work without any changes under ART. However, some

<li>Your app uses Java Native Interface (JNI) to run C/C++ code.</li>
|

obfuscators).</li>
|

<h3 id="BehaviorNotifications">If your app implements notifications...</h3>

To learn more about designing your notifications for Android 5.0 and higher,

see the <a href="{@docRoot}design/patterns/notifications.html">notifications design guide</a>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h4 id="NotificationsMaterialDesignStyle">Material design style</h4>
|
||||
<p>Notifications are drawn with dark text atop white (or very light) backgrounds
|
||||
to match the new material design widgets. Make sure that all your
|
||||
notifications look right with the new color scheme. If your notifications
|
||||
look wrong, fix them:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Use {@link android.app.Notification.Builder#setColor(int) setColor()}
|
||||
to set an accent color in a circle behind your icon image. </li>
|
||||
<li>Update or remove assets that involve color. The system ignores all
|
||||
non-alpha channels in action icons and in the main notification icon. You
|
||||
should assume that these icons will be alpha-only. The system draws
|
||||
notification icons in white and action icons in dark gray.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h4 id="NotificationsSoundVibration">Sound and vibration</h4>
|
||||
<p>If you are currently adding sounds and vibrations to your notifications by
|
||||
using the {@link android.media.Ringtone}, {@link android.media.MediaPlayer},
|
||||
or {@link android.os.Vibrator} classes, remove this code so that
|
||||
the system can present notifications correctly in
|
||||
<em>priority</em> mode. Instead, use
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder} methods to add sounds and
|
||||
vibration.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Setting the device to
|
||||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#RINGER_MODE_SILENT RINGER_MODE_SILENT} causes
|
||||
the device to enter the new priority mode. The device leaves priority
|

mode if you set it to
|
||||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#RINGER_MODE_NORMAL RINGER_MODE_NORMAL} or
|
||||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#RINGER_MODE_NORMAL RINGER_MODE_VIBRATE}.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Previously, Android used {@link android.media.AudioManager#STREAM_MUSIC STREAM_MUSIC}
|
||||
as the master stream to control volume on tablet devices. In Android 5.0, the
|
||||
master volume stream for both phone and tablet devices is now unified, and
|

is controlled by {@link android.media.AudioManager#STREAM_RING STREAM_RING} or

||||
{@link android.media.AudioManager#STREAM_NOTIFICATION STREAM_NOTIFICATION}.</p>
|

|

<h4 id="NotificationsLockscreenVisibility">Lock screen visibility</h4>
|
||||
<p>By default, notifications now appear on the user's lock screen in Android 5.0.
|
||||
Users can choose to protect sensitive information from being exposed, in which
|
||||
case the system automatically redacts the text displayed by the notification. To
|
||||
customize this redacted notification, use
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder#setPublicVersion(android.app.Notification)
|
||||
setPublicVersion()}.</p>
|
||||
<p>If the notification does not contain personal information, or if you want to
|
||||
allow media playback control on the notification, call the
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder#setVisibility(int) setVisibility()}
|
||||
method and set the notification's visibility level to
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_PUBLIC VISIBILITY_PUBLIC}.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h4 id="NotificationsMediaPlayback">Media playback</h4>
|
||||
<p>If you are implementing notifications that present media playback
|
||||
status or transport controls, consider using the new
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.MediaStyle} template instead of a custom
|
||||
{@link android.widget.RemoteViews.RemoteView} object. Whichever approach you
|
||||
choose, make sure to set the notification's visibility to
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_PUBLIC VISIBILITY_PUBLIC} so that
|
||||
your controls are accessible from the lock screen. Note that beginning in
|
||||
Android 5.0, the system no longer shows
|
||||
{@link android.media.RemoteControlClient} objects on the lock screen. For more
|
||||
information, see

<a href="#BehaviorMediaControl">If your app uses RemoteControlClient</a>.</p>
|

|
||||
<h4 id="NotificationsHeadsup">Heads-up notification</h4>
|
||||
<p>Notifications may now appear in a small floating window (also called a
|
||||
heads-up notification) when the device is active (that is, the device is
|
||||
unlocked and its screen is on). These notifications appear similar to the
|
||||
compact form of your notification, except that the heads-up notification also
|
||||
shows action buttons. Users can act on, or dismiss, a heads-up notification
|
||||
without leaving the current app.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Examples of conditions that may trigger heads-up notifications include:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>The user's activity is in fullscreen mode (the app uses
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification#fullScreenIntent})</li>
|
||||
<li>The notification has high priority and uses ringtones or vibrations</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If your app implements notifications under any of those scenarios, make sure
|
||||
that heads-up notifications are presented correctly.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3 id="BehaviorMediaControl">If your app uses RemoteControlClient...</h3>
|
||||
<p>The {@link android.media.RemoteControlClient} class is now deprecated. Switch
|
||||
to the new {@link android.media.session.MediaSession} API as
|
||||
soon as possible.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Lock screens in Android 5.0 do not show transport controls for
|
||||
your {@link android.media.session.MediaSession} or
|
||||
{@link android.media.RemoteControlClient}. Instead, your app can provide
|
||||
media playback control from the lock screen through a notification. This
|
||||
gives your app more control over the presentation of media buttons, while
|
||||
providing a consistent experience for users across locked and
|
||||
unlocked devices.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Android 5.0 introduces a new
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.MediaStyle} template for this purpose.
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.MediaStyle} converts notification
|
||||
actions that you added with
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.Builder#addAction(int, java.lang.CharSequence,
|
||||
android.app.PendingIntent)
|
||||
Notification.Builder.addAction()} into compact buttons embedded in your app's
|
||||
media playback notifications. Pass your session token to the
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification.MediaStyle#setMediaSession(android.media.session.MediaSession.Token)
|
||||
setSession()} method to inform the system that this notification controls an
|
||||
ongoing media session.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Make sure to set the notification's visibility to
|
||||
{@link android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_PUBLIC VISIBILITY_PUBLIC}
|
||||
to mark the notification as safe to show on any lock screen (secure or
|
||||
otherwise). For more information, see
|
||||
<a href="#LockscreenNotifications">Lock screen notifications</a>.</p>

privacy. For backward compatibility, this method still returns a small subset of
|

its data, including the calling application’s own tasks and possibly some other
|

non-sensitive tasks (such as Home). If your app is using this method to retrieve
|

its own tasks, use {@link android.app.ActivityManager#getAppTasks() getAppTasks()}
|

instead to retrieve that information.</p>
|

|
||||
<h3 id="64BitSupport">If you are using the Android Native Development Kit (NDK)...</h3>
|
||||
|

<p>Android 5.0 introduces support for 64-bit systems. The 64-bit enhancement
|
||||
increases address space and improves performance, while still supporting
|
||||
existing 32-bit apps fully. The 64-bit support also improves the performance of
|
||||
OpenSSL for cryptography. In addition, this release introduces new native
|
||||
media NDK APIs, as well as native OpenGL ES (GLES) 3.1 support.</p>
|
||||
|

<p>The

{@link android.content.Context#bindService(android.content.Intent, android.content.ServiceConnection, int) Context.bindService()}
