Quick and dirty solution: a new --packages argument allows you to specify an explicit
set of packages to include in the dump. There is also now a new GServices setting
that can provide a value for it.
This is the problem where various things are listening for broadcasts
(such as battery status, PIN/PUK/Network) that an application can send
to cause harm to the system.
Solving this is tricky because many of these broadcasts are sticky,
and I have never figured out how to do permissions with sticky
broadcasts in a sane way. So instead, I am going to punt on the
general problem and just brute force it:
There is new a way for system components to declare specific
broadcast actions to be protected, which means that only the system
and the phone can send them. This is good enough for now. None
of it is exposed in the public API so we can make something a little
less stupid in the future if we ever need to.
Also backup development settings MOCK_LOCATION and USB_DEBUGGING.
Backup and restore more of the Audio settings. Won't work yet without a reboot.
Disable Wifi supplicant restore temporarily. It seems to be disabling Wifi due to
permissions problems.
Don't restore Ringtones.
This CL adds the concept of 'provisioned' to the backup manager. No backups
will be scheduled until the user has indicated that backups are to be enabled
*and* has clicked all the way through the setup wizard.
When the user first turns on the backup system, the delay before the initial
backup pass is different from the periodic backup interval. Currently that
initial delay is 12 hours. The intent here is to guess at a less-active time
for performing that first backup pass.
NOTE: currently the backup service defaults to 'provisioned'. Once the real
code goes live in Setup Wizard, this will be changed to default to
not-provisioned until the user has confirmed all the relevant UI.
is OK, because existing app will have the old value compiled in
as a literal, and so will continue to (not) work in the same
way as before. Add code to media key generator to give a leading
ascii \001 the special meaning of "sort first".
This backs up the basic system and secure settings. THe restoration doesn't
take effect immediately. You many need to restart the runtime to see all
restored values take effect.
The system now keeps a tag of the last version (just an arbitrary string)
that the setup wizard was run for. If this is different than the current
one in the setup wizard, then setup is launched at boot.
This introduces a new intent action for the part of the setup wizard that
gets run for an ungrade, which the system uses to find its current version
tag for comparing against what was last stored. It is up to the launched
setup activity update the stored setting to reflect its current value,
once it is happy.
This changes the backup service to use the settings provider instead
of system properties, correspondingly making it off by default and
allowing specific devices to define the transport. Also tweaks
the permission checks to use the permission symbol instead of raw
strings.
This requires some corresponding changes in the vendor projects.
These changes are the frameworks/base portion of CDMA UI changes.
Five settings are added:
- In-call DTMF type (burst or long)
- Emergency tone type
- CDMA auto-retry
- Hearing Aid Compatibility (on/off)
- TTY mode
* adding compatibility menu
* backup gravity
* set expanable=true if the screen size is hvga * density.
* added "supports any density" mode. I'll add sdk check later.
* disallow to catch orientation change event if the app is not expandable. This
was causing layout problem under non-expandable mode. I discussed this with Mike C
and we agreed to do this approach for now. We'll revisit if this causes problem to
a lot of applications.
(in a follow-on change). This setting, to be respected by global search, and which
I will also file a bug to the browser to respect, determines whether live web
suggestions will be shown to the user as they type. For privacy reasons, this
could be considered undesirable, as partial queries can then be sent to the user's
chosen search engine, so a setting was required.
- Use ordered broadcast to allow receivers to set a result code.
- Ack SMS with result code.
- New RIL command to report memory status.
- Fixed a typo in a Gservices setting.
- Merge in CL 137895 (hold a wake lock while broadcasting SMS_RECEIVED).
CellLocation uses TelephonyManager to get the PhoneType.
TelephonyManager uses the system property to get the phoneType,
if the ITelephony interface is not up.
