'm trying to set up Device Owner using the sample apps downloadable from developer.android.com https://developer.android.com/samples/NfcProvisioning/index.html https://developer.android.com/samples/DeviceOwner/index.html But when I NFC tap the devices in the logcat for the device I am trying to set the Device Owner for I see this: /? E/ManagedProvisioning﹕ Device already provisioned. However I am doing a factory reset just before attempting the provisioning, so how can I get the device into an unprovisioned state? I've seen different behaviours depending on models. Usually removing all

I have a service and I want the service promote to enable it as Device Admin, until now I launched this kind of UI interactions from the service like Intent intent2 = new Intent(); intent2.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); intent2.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW); intent2.setDataAndType(uri, "application/vnd.android.package-archive"); context.startActivity(intent2); and it works, but with DevicePolicyManager I can't find the way: Intent intent = new Intent(DevicePolicyManager.ACTION_ADD_DEVICE_ADMIN); intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); intent.putExtra

I am trying to set the device owner package on a device using NFC. The is mentioned in the Lollipop overview here : To deploy and activate a device owner, you must perform an NFC data transfer from a programming app to the device while the device is in its unprovisioned state. This data transfer sends the same information as in the provisioning intent described in Managed provisioning. The reason is once this is set you can use the screen pinning feature to lock the device in a kiosk mode. I have been able to test the this kiosk mode by manually setting the device owner by placing a device

So right now I am trying to develop an Android App for my young children. I want to set a pin or passwords on selected applications for a particular amount of time to prevent them from opening the app. For example, let's say that my daughter wants to play angry birds for some time on my phone while I am doing work. I will select my important apps like messaging, gmail, etc and put a pin or password on it for 30 minutes while she plays angry birds. After 30 minutes, I get my phone from my daughter and I can open the app without a pin because the time limit expired. I have done a ton of research
