When creating a group via Wi-Fi Direct, I know that I can make a persistent group. My question is: can I create a persistent group, but each time change the group owner (i.e; each turn the group owner will be one of the devices in the group). Also, when creating a persistent group, it is required to accept the connection only the first time, right? Bill G You can now create a new persistent group via WifiP2pManager.createGroup(..) . It will create a new group and make the calling device (A) group owner and can do what you described. The only problem is once you create a group and connect to

How to enable WiFi on Android emulator? I have tried to find this but everyone is confusing WiFi with 3G. salman khalid Wifi is not available on the emulator if you are using below of API level 25. When using an AVD with API level 25 or higher, the emulator provides a simulated Wi-Fi access point ("AndroidWifi"), and Android automatically connects to it. https://developer.android.com/studio/run/emulator.html#wi-fi As of now, with Revision 26.1.3 of the android emulator, it is finally possible on the image v8 of the API 25.

Starting from ICS, Wi-Fi Direct is introduced. Normally, we use the WifiP2pManager class to operate on Wi-Fi Direct, but it seems that it can only retrieve the GroupOwner IP address after connected. But, actually, any device all came negotiate to become the GroupOwner. In Upper Application, we need to get the peer's IP address, or each peer's IP address in a group so that we can send/communicate with them. How to get each IP address in Wi-Fi Direct? Include own IP address and each peer in the group? I encountered the same problem. Since both devices know the group owner's ip, it is already

Im automating a testing procedure for wifi calling and I was wondering is there a way to turn off/on wifi via adb? I would either like to disable/enable wifi or kill wifi calling (com.movial.wificall) and restart it.

In my app I have a BroadcastReceiver that is launched as a component through a <receiver> tag, filtering android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE intents. My goal is simply to know when a Wifi connection was established, so what I am doing in onReceive() is this: NetworkInfo networkInfo = intent.getParcelableExtra(ConnectivityManager.EXTRA_NETWORK_INFO); if(networkInfo.getType() == ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI && networkInfo.isConnected()) { // Wifi is connected } It works fine, but I always seem to get two identical intents within about one second when a Wifi connection is established. I tried

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) {
