Feature Request: API for changing App Ops about island HOT 12 CLOSED

Hi. I found this (Delegated-Scopes-Manager) from the developer of ice-box, it seem to be a way to share device administrator permissions, and it is based on the Android DevicePolicyManager.DELEGATION mechanism.

I'm working on a future-proof and more flexible API design.

Do you or you know any developer wish to build app ops features with these requested APIs? I'd like to discuss the API details in real world scenario.

I use the a app called 权限狗 AppOps to change App Ops. It uses Device Owner mode from 小黑屋 to change App Ops. I'd like to be able to use island with the app to change App Ops.

Thanks for your information. I'm contacting the developer of the app you mentioned above to discuss the API requirements.

By the way the developer of 小黑屋 has a telegram account web1n and a telegram group at stopapp_group

@oasisfeng @JohnWang1023 I have also used App ops recently; but it seems that as long as it is frozen in the island and then unfrozen , App ops is considered a new application, and the previous settings will be lost.

@penhauer-xiao On device running Android P+, the App Ops will be preserved after being unfrozen. For lower version of Android, this will be implemented with root privilege in the future version of Island.

@oasisfeng Ok

APP ops has a problem with invalid permissions. However, I probably know that the APP ops has been tested to invalidate the permissions.

New delegation-based API: https://island.oasisfeng.com/api

Piggybacking on this request, can I ask if you can open up additional delegated scopes, or even create a "God mode" scope where all DevicePolicyManager methods can be invoked?

For context: I am trying to create an app (for myself really) calling the addUserRestriction method so that non-Play-Store apps cannot be installed on the main profile.

This is the current list of supported delegated scopes:

    private fun getSupportedDelegatedScope(delegation: String): Pair<String, Int>? {
        return delegation to when (delegation) {
            ApiConstants.DELEGATION_PACKAGE_ACCESS ->   R.string.label_delegation_package_access
            ApiConstants.DELEGATION_APP_OPS ->          R.string.label_delegation_app_ops
            else -> return null
        }
    }

            else -> return null
        }
    }

Additional delegated scopes can be added on demand, but only for scenarios targeting general public. If you need the new scope for your public app, please file a new feature request.

BTW, user restrictions are planned to be added in the future version of Island, as many users requested.
