I know how to turn on/off wifi hot spot using reflection in android using below method.
private static boolean changeWifiHotspotState(Context context,boolean enable) { try { WifiManager manager = (WifiManager) context.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE); Method method = manager.getClass().getDeclaredMethod("setWifiApEnabled", WifiConfiguration.class, Boolean.TYPE); method.setAccessible(true); WifiConfiguration configuration = enable ? getWifiApConfiguration(manager) : null; boolean isSuccess = (Boolean) method.invoke(manager, configuration, enable); return isSuccess; } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } return false; }
But the above method is not working Android 8.0(Oreo).
When I execute above method in Android 8.0, I am getting below statement in logcat.
com.gck.dummy W/WifiManager: com.gck.dummy attempted call to setWifiApEnabled: enabled = true
Is there any other way to on/off hotspot on android 8.0
