Along with new features and capabilities, Android 6.0 (API level 23) includes a variety of system changes and API behavior changes. This document highlights some of the key changes that you should understand and account for in your apps.

如果你先前发布过 Android 应用，就要了解这个平台影响你的应用的一些变化。
If you have previously published an app for Android, be aware that these changes in the platform affect your app.

运行时权限

Runtime Permissions

This release introduces a new permissions model, where users can now directly manage app permissions at runtime. This model gives users improved visibility and control over permissions, while streamlining the installation and auto-update processes for app developers. Users can grant or revoke permissions individually for installed apps.

On your apps that target Android 6.0 (API level 23) or higher, make sure to check for and request permissions at runtime. To determine if your app has been granted a permission, call the new checkSelfPermission() method. To request a permission, call the new requestPermissions() method. Even if your app is not targeting Android 6.0 (API level 23), you should test your app under the new permissions model.

For details on supporting the new permissions model in your app, see Working with System Permissions. For tips on how to assess the impact on your app, see Permissions Best Practices.

Doze and App Standby

This release introduces new power-saving optimizations for idle devices and apps. These features affect all apps so make sure to test your apps in these new modes.

• Doze: If a user unplugs a device and leaves it stationary, with its screen off, for a period of time, the device goes intoDoze mode, where it attempts to keep the system in a sleep state. In this mode, devices periodically resume normal operations for brief periods of time so that app syncing can occur and the system can perform any pending operations.
• App Standby: App Standby allows the system to determine that an app is idle when the user is not actively using it. The system makes this determination when the user does not touch the app for a certain period of time. If the device is unplugged, the system disables network access and suspends syncs and jobs for the apps it deems idle.

To learn more about these power-saving changes, see Optimizing for Doze and App Standby.

Apache HTTP Client Removal

Android 6.0 release removes support for the Apache HTTP client. If your app is using this client and targets Android 2.3 (API level 9) or higher, use the HttpURLConnection class instead. This API is more efficient because it reduces network use through transparent compression and response caching, and minimizes power consumption. To continue using the Apache HTTP APIs, you must first declare the following compile-time dependency in your build.gradle file:

android {
    useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'
}

BoringSSL

Android is moving away from OpenSSL to the BoringSSL library. If you’re using the Android NDK in your app, don't link against cryptographic libraries that are not a part of the NDK API, such as libcrypto.so and libssl.so. These libraries are not public APIs, and may change or break without notice across releases and devices. In addition, you may expose yourself to security vulnerabilities. Instead, modify your native code to call the Java cryptography APIs via JNI or to statically link against a cryptography library of your choice.

Access to Hardware Identifier

To provide users with greater data protection, starting in this release, Android removes programmatic access to the device’s local hardware identifier for apps using the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth APIs. The WifiInfo.getMacAddress() and theBluetoothAdapter.getAddress() methods now return a constant value of 02:00:00:00:00:00.

To access the hardware identifiers of nearby external devices via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi scans, your app must now have theACCESS_FINE_LOCATION or ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permissions:

• WifiManager.getScanResults()
• BluetoothDevice.ACTION_FOUND
• BluetoothLeScanner.startScan()

Note: When a device running Android 6.0 (API level 23) initiates a background Wi-Fi or Bluetooth scan, the operation is visible to external devices as originating from a randomized MAC address.

Notifications

This release removes the Notification.setLatestEventInfo() method. Use the Notification.Builder class instead to construct notifications. To update a notification repeatedly, reuse the Notification.Builder instance. Call thebuild() method to get updated Notification instances.

The adb shell dumpsys notification command no longer prints out your notification text. Use the adb shell dumpsys notification --noredact command instead to print out the text in a notification object.

AudioManager Changes

Setting the volume directly or muting specific streams via the AudioManager class is no longer supported. ThesetStreamSolo() method is deprecated, and you should call the requestAudioFocus() method instead. Similarly, thesetStreamMute() method is deprecated; instead, call the adjustStreamVolume() method and pass in the direction valueADJUST_MUTE or ADJUST_UNMUTE.

Text Selection

When users select text in your app, you can now display text selection actions such as Cut, Copy, and Paste in afloating toolbar. The user interaction implementation is similar to that for the contextual action bar, as described inEnabling the contextual action mode for individual views.

To implement a floating toolbar for text selection, make the following changes in your existing apps:

1. In your View or Activity object, change yourActionMode calls from startActionMode(Callback)to startActionMode(Callback, ActionMode.TYPE_FLOATING).
2. Take your existing implementation ofActionMode.Callback and make it extendActionMode.Callback2 instead.
3. Override the onGetContentRect() method to provide the coordinates of the content Rect object (such as a text selection rectangle) in the view.
4. If the rectangle positioning is no longer valid, and this is the only element to be invalidated, call theinvalidateContentRect() method.

If you are using Android Support Library revision 22.2, be aware that floating toolbars are not backward-compatible and appcompat takes control over ActionMode objects by default. This prevents floating toolbars from being displayed. To enable ActionMode support in anAppCompatActivity, call getDelegate(), then call setHandleNativeActionModesEnabled() on the returnedAppCompatDelegate object and set the input parameter to false. This call returns control of ActionMode objects to the framework. In devices running Android 6.0 (API level 23), that allows the framework to support ActionBar or floating toolbar modes, while on devices running Android 5.1 (API level 22) or lower, only the ActionBar modes are supported.

Browser Bookmark Changes

This release removes support for global bookmarks. The android.provider.Browser.getAllBookmarks() andandroid.provider.Browser.saveBookmark() methods are now removed. Likewise, the READ_HISTORY_BOOKMARKS andWRITE_HISTORY_BOOKMARKS permissions are removed. If your app targets Android 6.0 (API level 23) or higher, don't access bookmarks from the global provider or use the bookmark permissions. Instead, your app should store bookmarks data internally.

Android Keystore Changes

With this release, the Android Keystore provider no longer supports DSA. ECDSA is still supported.

Keys which do not require encryption at rest will no longer be deleted when secure lock screen is disabled or reset (forexample, by the user or a Device Administrator). Keys which require encryption at rest will be deleted during these events.

Wi-Fi and Networking Changes

This release introduces the following behavior changes to the Wi-Fi and networking APIs.

• Your apps can now change the state of WifiConfiguration objects only if you created these objects. You are not permitted to modify or delete WifiConfiguration objects created by the user or by other apps.
• Previously, if an app forced the device to connect to a specific Wi-Fi network by using enableNetwork() with thedisableAllOthers=true setting, the device disconnected from other networks such as cellular data. In This release, the device no longer disconnects from such other networks. If your app’s targetSdkVersion is “20” or lower, it is pinned to the selected Wi-Fi network. If your app’s targetSdkVersion is “21” or higher, use the multinetwork APIs (such as openConnection(), bindSocket(), and the new bindProcessToNetwork() method) to ensure that its network traffic is sent on the selected network.

Camera Service Changes

In This release, the model for accessing shared resources in the camera service has been changed from the previous “first come, first serve” access model to an access model where high-priority processes are favored. Changes to the service behavior include:

• Access to camera subsystem resources, including opening and configuring a camera device, is awarded based on the “priority” of the client application process. Application processes with user-visible or foreground activities are generally given a higher-priority, making camera resource acquisition and use more dependable.
• Active camera clients for lower priority apps may be “evicted” when a higher priority application attempts to use the camera. In the deprecated Camera API, this results in onError() being called for the evicted client. In the Camera2API, it results in onDisconnected() being called for the evicted client.
• On devices with appropriate camera hardware, separate application processes are able to independently open and use separate camera devices simultaneously. However, multi-process use cases, where simultaneous access causes significant degradation of performance or capabilities of any of the open camera devices, are now detected and disallowed by the camera service. This change may result in “evictions” for lower priority clients even when no other app is directly attempting to access the same camera device.
• Changing the current user causes active camera clients in apps owned by the previous user account to be evicted. Access to the camera is limited to user profiles owned by the current device user. In practice, this means that a “Guest” account, for example, will not be able to leave running processes that use the camera subsystem when the user has switched to a different account.

Runtime

The ART runtime now properly implements access rules for the newInstance() method. This change fixes a problem where Dalvik was checking access rules incorrectly in previous versions. If your app uses the newInstance() method and you want to override access checks, call the setAccessible() method with the input parameter set to true. If your app uses the v7 appcompat library or the v7 recyclerview library, you must update your app to use to the latest versions of these libraries. Otherwise, make sure that any custom classes referenced from XML are updated so that their classconstructors are accessible.

This release updates the behavior of the dynamic linker. The dynamic linker now understands the difference between a library’s soname and its path ( public bug 6670), and search by soname is now implemented. Apps which previously worked that have bad DT_NEEDED entries (usually absolute paths on the build machine’s file system) may fail when loaded.

The dlopen(3) RTLD_LOCAL flag is now correctly implemented. Note that RTLD_LOCAL is the default, so calls todlopen(3) that didn’t explicitly use RTLD_LOCAL will be affected (unless your app explicitly used RTLD_GLOBAL). WithRTLD_LOCAL, symbols will not be made available to libraries loaded by later calls to dlopen(3) (as opposed to being referenced by DT_NEEDED entries).

On previous versions of Android, if your app requested the system to load a shared library with text relocations, the system displayed a warning but still allowed the library to be loaded. Beginning in this release, the system rejects this library if your app's target SDK version is 23 or higher. To help you detect if a library failed to load, your app should log the dlopen(3)failure, and include the problem description text that the dlerror(3) call returns. To learn more about handling text relocations, see this guide.

APK Validation

The platform now performs stricter validation of APKs. An APK is considered corrupt if a file is declared in the manifest but not present in the APK itself. An APK must be re-signed if any of the contents are removed.

USB Connection

Device connections through the USB port are now set to charge-only mode by default. To access the device and its content over a USB connection, users must explicitly grant permission for such interactions. If your app supports user interactions with the device over a USB port, take into consideration that the interaction must be explicitly enabled.

Android for Work Changes

This release includes the following behavior changes for Android for Work:

• Work contacts in personal contexts. The Google Dialer Call Log now displays work contacts when the user views past calls. Setting setCrossProfileCallerIdDisabled() to true hides the work profile contacts in the Google Dialer Call Log. Work contacts can be displayed along with personal contacts to devices over Bluetooth only if you setsetBluetoothContactSharingDisabled() to false. By default, it is set to true.
• Wi-Fi configuration removal: Wi-Fi configurations added by a Profile Owner (for example, through calls to theaddNetwork() method) are now removed if that work profile is deleted.
• Wi-Fi configuration lockdown: Any Wi-Fi configuration created by an active Device Owner can no longer be modified or deleted by the user if WIFI_DEVICE_OWNER_CONFIGS_LOCKDOWN is non-zero. The user can still create and modify their own Wi-Fi configurations. Active Device Owners have the privilege of editing or removing any Wi-Fi configurations, including those not created by them.
• Download Work Policy Controller via Google account addition: When a Google account that requires management via a Work Policy Controller (WPC) app is added to a device outside of a managed context, the add account flow now prompts the user to install the appropriate WPC. This behavior also applies to accounts added via Settings > Accountsand in the initial device setup wizard.
• Changes to specific DevicePolicyManager API behaviors:
  • Calling the setCameraDisabled() method affects the camera for the calling user only; calling it from the managed profile doesn’t affect camera apps running on the primary user.
  • In addition, the setKeyguardDisabledFeatures() method is now available for Profile Owners, as well as to Device Owners.
  • A Profile Owner can set these keyguard restrictions:
    • KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS and KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT, which affect the keyguard settings for the profile’s parent user.
    • KEYGUARD_DISABLE_UNREDACTED_NOTIFICATIONS, which only affects notifications generated by applications in the managed profile.
  • The createAndInitializeUser() and createUser() methods have been deprecated.
  • The setScreenCaptureDisabled() method now also blocks the assist structure when an app of the given user is in the foreground.
  • EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_PACKAGE_CHECKSUM now defaults to SHA-256. SHA-1 is still supported for backwards compatibility but will be removed in future. EXTRA_PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_SIGNATURE_CHECKSUMnow only accepts SHA-256.
  • Device initializer APIs which existed in the Android 6.0 (API level 23) are now removed.
  • EXTRA_PROVISIONING_RESET_PROTECTION_PARAMETERS is removed so NFC bump provisioning cannot programmatically unlock a factory reset protected device.
  • You can now use the EXTRA_PROVISIONING_ADMIN_EXTRAS_BUNDLE extra to pass data to the device owner app during NFC provisioning of the managed device.
  • Android for Work APIs are optimized for M runtime permissions, including Work profiles, assist layer, and others. New DevicePolicyManager permission APIs don't affect pre-M apps.
  • When users back out of the synchronous part of the setup flow initiated through anACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE or ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_DEVICE intent, the system now returns aRESULT_CANCELED result code.
• Changes to other APIs:
  • Data Usage: The android.app.usage.NetworkUsageStats class has been renamed NetworkStats.
• Changes to global settings:
  • These settings can no longer be set via setGlobalSettings():
    • BLUETOOTH_ON
    • DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS_ENABLED
    • MODE_RINGER
    • NETWORK_PREFERENCE
    • WIFI_ON
  • These global settings can now be set via setGlobalSettings():
    • WIFI_DEVICE_OWNER_CONFIGS_LOCKDOWN
