1. Введение
В этом документе перечислены требования, которые необходимо выполнить, чтобы устройства были совместимы с Android 10.
Использование слов «ДОЛЖЕН», «НЕ ДОЛЖЕН», «ТРЕБУЕТСЯ», «ДОЛЖЕН», «НЕ ДОЛЖЕН», «СЛЕДУЕТ», «НЕ ДОЛЖЕН», «РЕКОМЕНДУЕТСЯ», «МОЖЕТ» и «ДОПОЛНИТЕЛЬНО» соответствует IETF. стандарт, определенный в RFC2119 .
В этом документе «разработчик устройства» или «разработчик» — это человек или организация, разрабатывающие аппаратное/программное решение под управлением Android 10. «Реализация устройства» или «реализация» — это разработанное таким образом аппаратное/программное решение.
Чтобы считаться совместимыми с Android 10, реализации устройства ДОЛЖНЫ соответствовать требованиям, представленным в этом определении совместимости, включая любые документы, включенные посредством ссылки.
Если это определение или тесты программного обеспечения, описанные в разделе 10, являются молчаливыми, двусмысленными или неполными, ответственность за обеспечение совместимости с существующими реализациями лежит на разработчике устройства.
По этой причине проект Android с открытым исходным кодом является одновременно эталонной и предпочтительной реализацией Android. Разработчикам устройств НАСТОЯТЕЛЬНО РЕКОМЕНДУЕТСЯ основывать свои реализации в максимально возможной степени на исходном коде, доступном в проекте Android Open Source Project. Хотя некоторые компоненты гипотетически можно заменить альтернативными реализациями, НАСТОЯТЕЛЬНО РЕКОМЕНДУЕТСЯ не следовать этой практике, поскольку прохождение тестов программного обеспечения станет существенно сложнее. Ответственность за обеспечение полной поведенческой совместимости со стандартной реализацией Android, включая набор тестов совместимости, лежит на разработчике. Наконец, обратите внимание, что некоторые замены и модификации компонентов явно запрещены данным документом.
Многие ресурсы, ссылки на которые приведены в этом документе, прямо или косвенно получены из Android SDK и функционально идентичны информации в документации этого SDK. В любых случаях, когда данное Определение совместимости или Набор тестов совместимости не согласуются с документацией SDK, документация SDK считается авторитетной. Любые технические подробности, представленные в связанных ресурсах в этом документе, считаются частью данного определения совместимости.

- [ 9.11 /A-0-2] должны иметь реализацию RSA, AES, ECDSA и HMAC Cryptographic Algorithms и HASH Family Family и SHA-2 для правильной поддержки поддерживаемых алгоритмов системы Android-KeyStor из кода, работающего на ядре и выше. Безопасная изоляция должна блокировать все потенциальные механизмы, с помощью которых ядро или код пользователя может получить доступ к внутреннему состоянию изолированной среды, включая DMA. Проект с открытым исходным кодом Android Android (AOSP) соответствует этому требованию, используя доверительную реализацию, но еще одно решение на основе Arm Trustzone или стороннее просмотрело безопасную реализацию надлежащей гипервизоры, являются альтернативными вариантами.
- [ 9.11 /A-0-3] должен выполнить аутентификацию экрана блокировки в изолированной среде выполнения, и только при успешной, разрешайте использовать ключи, связанные с аутентификацией. Учетные данные экрана блокировки должны храниться таким образом, чтобы позволить только изолированной среде выполнения выполнять аутентификацию экрана блокировки. The upstream Android Open Source Project provides the Gatekeeper Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) and Trusty, which can be used to satisfy this requirement.
- [ 9.11 /A-0-4] MUST support key attestation where the attestation signing key is protected by secure hardware and signing is performed in secure hardware. The attestation signing keys MUST be shared across large enough number of devices to prevent the keys from being used as device identifiers. One way of meeting this requirement is to share the same attestation key unless at least 100,000 units of a given SKU are produced. If more than 100,000 units of an SKU are produced, a different key MAY be used for each 100,000 units.
Note that if a device implementation is already launched on an earlier Android version, such a device is exempted from the requirement to have a keystore backed by an isolated execution environment and support the key attestation, unless it declares the android.hardware.fingerprint
feature which requires a keystore backed by an isolated execution environment.
If Automotive device implementations support a secure lock screen, they:
- [ 9.11 /A-1-1] MUST allow the user to choose the Sleep timeout for transition from the unlocked to the locked state, with a minimum allowable timeout up to 15 seconds or less.

- Has a power source that provides mobility, such as a battery.
- Has a physical diagonal screen size in the range of 7 to 18 inches.
Tablet device implementations have similar requirements to handheld device implementations. The exceptions are indicated by an * in that section and noted for reference in this section.
2.6.1. Аппаратное обеспечение
Размер экрана
- [ 7.1 .1.1/Tab-0-1] MUST have a screen in the range of 7 to 18 inches.
Гироскоп
If Tablet device implementations include a 3-axis gyroscope, they:
- [ 7.3 .4/Tab-1-1] MUST be capable of measuring orientation changes up to 1000 degrees per second.
Minimum Memory and Storage (Section 7.6.1)
The screen densities listed for small/normal screens in the handheld requirements are not applicable to tablets.
USB peripheral mode (Section 7.7.1)
If tablet device implementations include a USB port supporting peripheral mode, they:
- [ 7.7.1 /Tab] MAY implement the Android Open Accessory (AOA) API.
Virtual Reality Mode (Section 7.9.1)
Virtual Reality High Performance (Section 7.9.2)
Virtual reality requirements are not applicable to tablets.
2.6.2. Security Model
Keys and Credentials (Section 9.11)
Refer to Section [ 9.11 ].
If Tablet device implementations include multiple users and do not declare the android.hardware.telephony
feature flag, they:
- [ 9.5 /T-1-1] MUST support restricted profiles, a feature that allows device owners to manage additional users and their capabilities on the device. With restricted profiles, device owners can quickly set up separate environments for additional users to work in, with the ability to manage finer-grained restrictions in the apps that are available in those environments.
If Tablet device implementations include multiple users and declare the android.hardware.telephony
feature flag, they:
- [ 9.5 /T-2-1] MUST NOT support restricted profiles but MUST align with the AOSP implementation of controls to enable /disable other users from accessing the voice calls and SMS.
3. Software
3.1. Managed API Compatibility
The managed Dalvik bytecode execution environment is the primary vehicle for Android applications. The Android application programming interface (API) is the set of Android platform interfaces exposed to applications running in the managed runtime environment.
Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST provide complete implementations, including all documented behaviors, of any documented API exposed by the Android SDK or any API decorated with the “@SystemApi” marker in the upstream Android source code.
[C-0-2] MUST support/preserve all classes, methods, and associated elements marked by the TestApi annotation (@TestApi).
[C-0-3] MUST NOT omit any managed APIs, alter API interfaces or signatures, deviate from the documented behavior, or include no-ops, except where specifically allowed by this Compatibility Definition.
[C-0-4] MUST still keep the APIs present and behave in a reasonable way, even when some hardware features for which Android includes APIs are omitted. See section 7 for specific requirements for this scenario.
[C-0-5] MUST NOT allow third-party apps to use non-SDK interfaces, which are defined as methods and fields in the Java language packages that are in the boot classpath in AOSP, and that do not form part of the public SDK. This includes APIs decorated with the
@hide
annotation but not with a@SystemAPI
, as described in the SDK documents and private and package-private class members.[C-0-6] MUST ship with each and every non-SDK interface on the same restricted lists as provided via the provisional list and denylist flags in
prebuilts/runtime/appcompat/hiddenapi-flags.csv
path for the appropriate API level branch in the AOSP.However they:
- MAY, if a hidden API is absent or implemented differently on the device implementation, move the hidden API into the denylist or omit it from all restricted lists.
- MAY, if a hidden API does not already exist in the AOSP, add the hidden API to any of the restricted lists.
[C-0-7] MUST support the signed config dynamic update mechanism to remove non-SDK interfaces from a restricted list by embedding signed configuration in any APK, using the existing public keys present in AOSP.
3.1.1. Android Extensions
Android includes the support of extending the managed APIs while keeping the same API level version.
- [C-0-1] Android device implementations MUST preload the AOSP implementation of both the shared library
ExtShared
and servicesExtServices
with versions higher than or equal to the minimum versions allowed per each API level. For example, Android 7.0 device implementations, running API level 24 MUST include at least version 1.
3.1.2. Android Library
Due to Apache HTTP client deprecation , device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST NOT place the
org.apache.http.legacy
library in the bootclasspath. - [C-0-2] MUST add the
org.apache.http.legacy
library to the application classpath only when the app satisfies one of the following conditions:- Targets API level 28 or lower.
- Declares in its manifest that it needs the library by setting the
android:name
attribute of<uses-library>
toorg.apache.http.legacy
.
The AOSP implementation meets these requirements.
3.2. Soft API Compatibility
In addition to the managed APIs from section 3.1 , Android also includes a significant runtime-only “soft” API, in the form of such things as intents, permissions, and similar aspects of Android applications that cannot be enforced at application compile time.
3.2.1. Разрешения
- [C-0-1] Device implementers MUST support and enforce all permission constants as documented by the Permission reference page . Note that section 9 lists additional requirements related to the Android security model.
3.2.2. Build Parameters
The Android APIs include a number of constants on the android.os.Build class that are intended to describe the current device.
- [C-0-1] To provide consistent, meaningful values across device implementations, the table below includes additional restrictions on the formats of these values to which device implementations MUST conform.

3.2.3. Intent Compatibility
3.2.3.1. Core Application Intents
Android intents allow application components to request functionality from other Android components. The Android upstream project includes a list of applications considered core Android applications, which implements several intent patterns to perform common actions.
[C-0-1] Device implementations MUST preload one or more applications or service components with an intent handler, for all the public intent filter patterns defined by the following core android applications in AOSP:
- Desk Clock
- Браузер
- Календарь
- Контакты
- Галерея
- GlobalSearch
- пусковая установка
- Музыка
- Настройки
3.2.3.2. Intent Resolution
[C-0-1] As Android is an extensible platform, device implementations MUST allow each intent pattern referenced in section 3.2.3.1 , except for Settings, to be overridden by third-party applications. The upstream Android open source implementation allows this by default.
[C-0-2] Device implementers MUST NOT attach special privileges to system applications' use of these intent patterns, or prevent third-party applications from binding to and assuming control of these patterns. This prohibition specifically includes but is not limited to disabling the “Chooser” user interface that allows the user to select between multiple applications that all handle the same intent pattern.
[C-0-3] Device implementations MUST provide a user interface for users to modify the default activity for intents.
However, device implementations MAY provide default activities for specific URI patterns (eg http://play.google.com) when the default activity provides a more specific attribute for the data URI. For example, an intent filter pattern specifying the data URI “http://www.android.com” is more specific than the browser's core intent pattern for “http://”.
Android also includes a mechanism for third-party apps to declare an authoritative default app linking behavior for certain types of web URI intents. When such authoritative declarations are defined in an app's intent filter patterns, device implementations:
- [C-0-4] MUST attempt to validate any intent filters by performing the validation steps defined in the Digital Asset Links specification as implemented by the Package Manager in the upstream Android Open Source Project.
- [C-0-5] MUST attempt validation of the intent filters during the installation of the application and set all successfully validated URI intent filters as default app handlers for their URIs.
- MAY set specific URI intent filters as default app handlers for their URIs, if they are successfully verified but other candidate URI filters fail verification. If a device implementation does this, it MUST provide the user appropriate per-URI pattern overrides in the settings menu.
- MUST provide the user with per-app App Links controls in Settings as follows:
- [C-0-6] The user MUST be able to override holistically the default app links behavior for an app to be: always open, always ask, or never open, which MUST apply to all candidate URI intent filters equally.
- [C-0-7] The user MUST be able to see a list of the candidate URI intent filters.
- The device implementation MAY provide the user with the ability to override specific candidate URI intent filters that were successfully verified, on a per-intent filter basis.
- [C-0-8] The device implementation MUST provide users with the ability to view and override specific candidate URI intent filters if the device implementation lets some candidate URI intent filters succeed verification while some others can fail.
3.2.3.3. Intent Namespaces
- [C-0-1] Device implementations MUST NOT include any Android component that honors any new intent or broadcast intent patterns using an ACTION, CATEGORY, or other key string in the android. or com.android. namespace.
- [C-0-2] Device implementers MUST NOT include any Android components that honor any new intent or broadcast intent patterns using an ACTION, CATEGORY, or other key string in a package space belonging to another organization.
- [C-0-3] Device implementers MUST NOT alter or extend any of the intent patterns used by the core apps listed in section 3.2.3.1 .
- Device implementations MAY include intent patterns using namespaces clearly and obviously associated with their own organization. This prohibition is analogous to that specified for Java language classes in section 3.6 .
3.2.3.4. Broadcast Intents
Third-party applications rely on the platform to broadcast certain intents to notify them of changes in the hardware or software environment.
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST broadcast the public broadcast intents in response to appropriate system events as described in the SDK documentation. Note that this requirement is not conflicting with section 3.5 as the limitation for background applications are also described in the SDK documentation.
3.2.3.5. Default App Settings
Android includes settings that provide users an easy way to select their default applications, for example for Home screen or SMS.
Where it makes sense, device implementations MUST provide a similar settings menu and be compatible with the intent filter pattern and API methods described in the SDK documentation as below.
If device implementations report android.software.home_screen
, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST honor the
android.settings.HOME_SETTINGS
intent to show a default app settings menu for Home Screen.
If device implementations report android.hardware.telephony
, they:
[C-2-1] MUST provide a settings menu that will call the
RoleManager.createRequestRoleIntent(String)
intent withRoleManager.ROLE_SMS
to show a dialog to change the default SMS application.[C-2-2] MUST honor the
android.telecom.action.CHANGE_DEFAULT_DIALER
intent to show a dialog to allow the user to change the default Phone application.- MUST use the user-selected default Phone app's UI for incoming and outgoing calls except for emergency calls, which would use the preinstalled Phone app.
[C-2-3] MUST honor the android.telecom.action.CHANGE_PHONE_ACCOUNTS intent to provide user affordance to configure the
ConnectionServices
associated with thePhoneAccounts
, as well as a default PhoneAccount that the telecommunications service provider will use to place outgoing calls. The AOSP implementation meets this requirement by including a "Calling Accounts option" menu within the "Calls" settings menu.[C-2-4] MUST allow
android.telecom.CallRedirectionService
for an app that holds theandroid.app.role.CALL_REDIRECTION
role.- [C-2-5] MUST provide the user affordance to choose an app that holds the
android.app.role.CALL_REDIRECTION
role.
If device implementations report android.hardware.nfc.hce
, they:
- [C-3-1] MUST honor the android.settings.NFC_PAYMENT_SETTINGS intent to show a default app settings menu for Tap and Pay.
If device implementations support the VoiceInteractionService
and have more than one application using this API installed at a time, they:
- [C-4-1] MUST honor the
android.settings.ACTION_VOICE_INPUT_SETTINGS
intent to show a default app settings menu for voice input and assist.
3.2.4. Activities on secondary/multiple displays
If device implementations allow launching normal Android Activities on more than one display, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST set the
android.software.activities_on_secondary_displays
feature flag. - [C-1-2] MUST guarantee API compatibility similar to an activity running on the primary display.
- [C-1-3] MUST land the new activity on the same display as the activity that launched it, when the new activity is launched without specifying a target display via the
ActivityOptions.setLaunchDisplayId()
API. - [C-1-4] MUST destroy all activities, when a display with the
Display.FLAG_PRIVATE
flag is removed. - [C-1-5] MUST securely hide content on all screens when the device is locked with a secure lock screen, unless the app opts in to show on top of lock screen using
Activity#setShowWhenLocked()
API. - SHOULD have
android.content.res.Configuration
which corresponds to that display in order to be displayed, operate correctly, and maintain compatibility if an activity is launched on secondary display.
If device implementations allow launching normal Android Activities on secondary displays and a secondary display has the android.view.Display.FLAG_PRIVATE flag:
- [C-3-1] Only the owner of that display, system, and activities that are already on that display MUST be able to launch to it. Everyone can launch to a display that has android.view.Display.FLAG_PUBLIC flag.
3.3. Native API Compatibility
Native code compatibility is challenging. For this reason, device implementers are:
- [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use the implementations of the libraries listed below from the upstream Android Open Source Project.
3.3.1. Application Binary Interfaces
Managed Dalvik bytecode can call into native code provided in the application .apk
file as an ELF .so
file compiled for the appropriate device hardware architecture. As native code is highly dependent on the underlying processor technology, Android defines a number of Application Binary Interfaces (ABIs) in the Android NDK.
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST be compatible with one or more defined ABIs and implement compatibility with the Android NDK.
- [C-0-2] MUST include support for code running in the managed environment to call into native code, using the standard Java Native Interface (JNI) semantics.
- [C-0-3] MUST be source-compatible (ie header-compatible) and binary-compatible (for the ABI) with each required library in the list below.
- [C-0-5] MUST accurately report the native Application Binary Interface (ABI) supported by the device, via the
android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_ABIS
,android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_32_BIT_ABIS
, andandroid.os.Build.SUPPORTED_64_BIT_ABIS
parameters, each a comma separated list of ABIs ordered from the most to the least preferred one. [C-0-6] MUST report, via the above parameters, a subset of the following list of ABIs and MUST NOT report any ABI not on the list.
-
armeabi
-
armeabi-v7a
-
arm64-v8a
-
x86
-
x86-64
[C-0-7] MUST make all the following libraries, providing native APIs, available to apps that include native code:
libaaudio.so (AAudio native audio support)
- libamidi.so (native MIDI support, if feature
android.software.midi
is claimed as described in Section 5.9) - libandroid.so (native Android activity support)
- libc (C library)
- libcamera2ndk.so
- libdl (dynamic linker)
- libEGL.so (native OpenGL surface management)
- libGLESv1_CM.so (OpenGL ES 1.x)
- libGLESv2.so (OpenGL ES 2.0)
- libGLESv3.so (OpenGL ES 3.x)
- libicui18n.so
- libicuuc.so
- libjnigraphics.so
- liblog (Android logging)
- libmediandk.so (native media APIs support)
- libm (math library)
- libneuralnetworks.so (Neural Networks API)
- libOpenMAXAL.so (OpenMAX AL 1.0.1 support)
- libOpenSLES.so (OpenSL ES 1.0.1 audio support)
- libRS.so
- libstdc++ (Minimal support for C++)
- libvulkan.so (Vulkan)
- libz (Zlib compression)
- JNI interface
-
[C-0-8] MUST NOT add or remove the public functions for the native libraries listed above.
- [C-0-9] MUST list additional non-AOSP libraries exposed directly to third-party apps in
/vendor/etc/public.libraries.txt
. - [C-0-10] MUST NOT expose any other native libraries, implemented and provided in AOSP as system libraries, to third-party apps targeting API level 24 or higher as they are reserved.
- [C-0-11] MUST export all the OpenGL ES 3.1 and Android Extension Pack function symbols, as defined in the NDK, through the
libGLESv3.so
library. Note that while all the symbols MUST be present, section 7.1.4.1 describes in more detail the requirements for when the full implementation of each corresponding functions are expected. - [C-0-12] MUST export function symbols for the core Vulkan 1.0 function symbols, as well as the
VK_KHR_surface
,VK_KHR_android_surface
,VK_KHR_swapchain
,VK_KHR_maintenance1
, andVK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2
extensions through thelibvulkan.so
library. Note that while all the symbols MUST be present, section 7.1.4.2 describes in more detail the requirements for when the full implementation of each corresponding functions are expected. - SHOULD be built using the source code and header files available in the upstream Android Open Source Project
Note that future releases of Android may introduce support for additional ABIs.
3.3.2. 32-bit ARM Native Code Compatibility
If device implementations report the support of the armeabi
ABI, they:
- [C-3-1] MUST also support
armeabi-v7a
and report its support, asarmeabi
is only for backwards compatibility with older apps.
If device implementations report the support of the armeabi-v7a
ABI, for apps using this ABI, they:
[C-2-1] MUST include the following lines in
/proc/cpuinfo
, and SHOULD NOT alter the values on the same device, even when they are read by other ABIs.-
Features:
, followed by a list of any optional ARMv7 CPU features supported by the device. -
CPU architecture:
, followed by an integer describing the device's highest supported ARM architecture (eg, "8" for ARMv8 devices).
-
[C-2-2] MUST always keep the following operations available, even in the case where the ABI is implemented on an ARMv8 architecture, either through native CPU support or through software emulation:
- SWP and SWPB instructions.
- SETEND instruction.
- CP15ISB, CP15DSB, and CP15DMB barrier operations.
[C-2-3] MUST include support for the Advanced SIMD (aka NEON) extension.
3.4. Web Compatibility
3.4.1. WebView Compatibility
If device implementations provide a complete implementation of the android.webkit.Webview
API, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST report
android.software.webview
. - [C-1-2] MUST use the Chromium Project build from the upstream Android Open Source Project on the Android 10 branch for the implementation of the
android.webkit.WebView
API. [C-1-3] The user agent string reported by the WebView MUST be in this format:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android $(VERSION); [$(MODEL)] [Build/$(BUILD)]; wv) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 $(CHROMIUM_VER) Mobile Safari/537.36
- The value of the $(VERSION) string MUST be the same as the value for android.os.Build.VERSION.RELEASE.
- The $(MODEL) string MAY be empty, but if it is not empty it MUST have the same value as android.os.Build.MODEL.
- "Build/$(BUILD)" MAY be omitted, but if it is present the $(BUILD) string MUST be the same as the value for android.os.Build.ID.
- The value of the $(CHROMIUM_VER) string MUST be the version of Chromium in the upstream Android Open Source Project.
- Device implementations MAY omit Mobile in the user agent string.
The WebView component SHOULD include support for as many HTML5 features as possible and if it supports the feature SHOULD conform to the HTML5 specification .
[C-1-4] MUST render the provided content or remote URL content in a process that is distinct from the application that instantiates the WebView. Specifically the separate renderer process MUST hold lower privilege, run as a separate user ID, have no access to the app's data directory, have no direct network access, and only have access to the minimum-required system services over Binder. The AOSP implementation of WebView meets this requirement.
Note that if device implementations are 32-bit or declare the feature flag android.hardware.ram.low
, they are exempted from C-1-3.
3.4.2. Browser Compatibility
If device implementations include a standalone Browser application for general web browsing, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST support each of these APIs associated with HTML5:
- [C-1-2] MUST support the HTML5/W3C webstorage API and SHOULD support the HTML5/W3C IndexedDB API . Note that as the web development standards bodies are transitioning to favor IndexedDB over webstorage, IndexedDB is expected to become a required component in a future version of Android.
- MAY ship a custom user agent string in the standalone Browser application.
- SHOULD implement support for as much of HTML5 as possible on the standalone Browser application (whether based on the upstream WebKit Browser application or a third-party replacement).
However, If device implementations do not include a standalone Browser application, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST still support the public intent patterns as described in section 3.2.3.1 .
3.5. API Behavioral Compatibility
Device implementations:
- [C-0-9] MUST ensure that API behavioral compatibility is applied for all installed apps unless they are restricted as described in Section 3.5.1 .
- [C-0-10] MUST NOT implement the allowlisting approach that ensures API behavioral compatibility only for apps that are selected by device implementers.
The behaviors of each of the API types (managed, soft, native, and web) MUST be consistent with the preferred implementation of the upstream Android Open Source Project . Some specific areas of compatibility are:
- [C-0-1] Devices MUST NOT change the behavior or semantics of a standard intent.
- [C-0-2] Devices MUST NOT alter the lifecycle or lifecycle semantics of a particular type of system component (such as Service, Activity, ContentProvider, etc.).
- [C-0-3] Devices MUST NOT change the semantics of a standard permission.
- Devices MUST NOT alter the limitations enforced on background applications. More specifically, for background apps:
- [C-0-4] they MUST stop executing callbacks that are registered by the app to receive outputs from the
GnssMeasurement
andGnssNavigationMessage
. - [C-0-5] they MUST rate-limit the frequency of updates that are provided to the app through the
LocationManager
API class or theWifiManager.startScan()
method. - [C-0-6] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST NOT allow to register broadcast receivers for the implicit broadcasts of standard Android intents in the app's manifest, unless the broadcast intent requires a
"signature"
or"signatureOrSystem"
protectionLevel
permission or are on the exemption list . - [C-0-7] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST stop the app's background services, just as if the app had called the services'
stopSelf()
method, unless the app is placed on a temporary allowlist to handle a task that's visible to the user. - [C-0-8] if the app is targeting API level 25 or higher, they MUST release the wakelocks the app holds.
- [C-0-4] they MUST stop executing callbacks that are registered by the app to receive outputs from the
- [C-0-9] Devices MUST return the following security providers as the first seven array values from the
Security.getProviders()
method, in the given order and with the given names (as returned byProvider.getName()
) and classes, unless the app has modified the list viainsertProviderAt()
orremoveProvider()
. Devices MAY return additional providers after the specified list of providers below.- AndroidNSSP -
android.security.net.config.NetworkSecurityConfigProvider
- AndroidOpenSSL -
com.android.org.conscrypt.OpenSSLProvider
- CertPathProvider -
sun.security.provider.CertPathProvider
- AndroidKeyStoreBCWorkaround -
android.security.keystore.AndroidKeyStoreBCWorkaroundProvider
- BC -
com.android.org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider
- HarmonyJSSE -
com.android.org.conscrypt.JSSEProvider
- AndroidKeyStore -
android.security.keystore.AndroidKeyStoreProvider
- AndroidNSSP -
The above list is not comprehensive. The Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) tests significant portions of the platform for behavioral compatibility, but not all. It is the responsibility of the implementer to ensure behavioral compatibility with the Android Open Source Project. For this reason, device implementers SHOULD use the source code available via the Android Open Source Project where possible, rather than re-implement significant parts of the system.
3.5.1. Background Restriction
If device implementations implement the app restrictions that are included in AOSP or extend the app restrictions, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST provide user affordance where the user can see the list of restricted apps.
- [C-1-2] MUST provide user affordance to turn on / off the restrictions on each app.
- [C-1-3] MUST not automatically apply restrictions without evidence of poor system health behavior, but MAY apply the restrictions on apps upon detection of poor system health behavior like stuck wakelocks, long running services, and other criteria. The criteria MAY be determined by device implementers but MUST be related to the app's impact on the system health. Other criteria that are not purely related to the system health, such as the app's lack of popularity in the market, MUST NOT be used as criteria.
- [C-1-4] MUST not automatically apply app restrictions for apps when a user has turned off app restrictions manually, and MAY suggest the user to apply app restrictions.
- [C-1-5] MUST inform users if app restrictions are applied to an app automatically.
- [C-1-6] MUST return
true
forActivityManager.isBackgroundRestricted()
when the restricted app calls this API. - [C-1-7] MUST NOT restrict the top foreground app that is explicitly used by the user.
- [C-1-8] MUST suspend restrictions on an app that becomes the top foreground application when the user explicitly starts to use the app that used to be restricted.
3.6. API Namespaces
Android follows the package and class namespace conventions defined by the Java programming language. To ensure compatibility with third-party applications, device implementers MUST NOT make any prohibited modifications (see below) to these package namespaces:
-
java.*
-
javax.*
-
sun.*
-
android.*
-
androidx.*
-
com.android.*
That is, they:
- [C-0-1] MUST NOT modify the publicly exposed APIs on the Android platform by changing any method or class signatures, or by removing classes or class fields.
- [C-0-2] MUST NOT add any publicly exposed elements (such as classes or interfaces, or fields or methods to existing classes or interfaces) or Test or System APIs to the APIs in the above namespaces. A “publicly exposed element” is any construct that is not decorated with the “@hide” marker as used in the upstream Android source code.
Device implementers MAY modify the underlying implementation of the APIs, but such modifications:
- [C-0-3] MUST NOT impact the stated behavior and Java-language signature of any publicly exposed APIs.
- [C-0-4] MUST NOT be advertised or otherwise exposed to developers.
However, device implementers MAY add custom APIs outside the standard Android namespace, but the custom APIs:
- [C-0-5] MUST NOT be in a namespace owned by or referring to another organization. For instance, device implementers MUST NOT add APIs to the
com.google.*
or similar namespace: only Google may do so. Similarly, Google MUST NOT add APIs to other companies' namespaces. - [C-0-6] MUST be packaged in an Android shared library so that only apps that explicitly use them (via the <uses-library> mechanism) are affected by the increased memory usage of such APIs.
If a device implementer proposes to improve one of the package namespaces above (such as by adding useful new functionality to an existing API, or adding a new API), the implementer SHOULD visit source.android.com and begin the process for contributing changes and code, according to the information on that site.
Note that the restrictions above correspond to standard conventions for naming APIs in the Java programming language; this section simply aims to reinforce those conventions and make them binding through inclusion in this Compatibility Definition.
3.7. Runtime Compatibility
Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST support the full Dalvik Executable (DEX) format and Dalvik bytecode specification and semantics .
[C-0-2] MUST configure Dalvik runtimes to allocate memory in accordance with the upstream Android platform, and as specified by the following table. (See section 7.1.1 for screen size and screen density definitions.)
SHOULD use Android RunTime (ART), the reference upstream implementation of the Dalvik Executable Format, and the reference implementation's package management system.
SHOULD run fuzz tests under various modes of execution and target architectures to assure the stability of the runtime. Refer to JFuzz and DexFuzz in the Android Open Source Project website.
Note that memory values specified below are considered minimum values and device implementations MAY allocate more memory per application.

3.8. User Interface Compatibility
3.8.1. Launcher (Home Screen)
Android includes a launcher application (home screen) and support for third-party applications to replace the device launcher (home screen).
If device implementations allow third-party applications to replace the device home screen, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST declare the platform feature
android.software.home_screen
. - [C-1-2] MUST return the
AdaptiveIconDrawable
object when the third-party application use<adaptive-icon>
tag to provide their icon, and thePackageManager
methods to retrieve icons are called.
If device implementations include a default launcher that supports in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST report
true
forShortcutManager.isRequestPinShortcutSupported()
. - [C-2-2] MUST have user affordance asking the user before adding a shortcut requested by apps via the
ShortcutManager.requestPinShortcut()
API method. - [C-2-3] MUST support pinned shortcuts and dynamic and static shortcuts as documented on the App Shortcuts page .
Conversely, if device implementations do not support in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:
- [C-3-1] MUST report
false
forShortcutManager.isRequestPinShortcutSupported()
.
If device implementations implement a default launcher that provides quick access to the additional shortcuts provided by third-party apps through the ShortcutManager API, they:
- [C-4-1] MUST support all documented shortcut features (eg static and dynamic shortcuts, pinning shortcuts) and fully implement the APIs of the
ShortcutManager
API class.
If device implementations include a default launcher app that shows badges for the app icons, they:
- [C-5-1] MUST respect the
NotificationChannel.setShowBadge()
API method. In other words, show a visual affordance associated with the app icon if the value is set astrue
, and do not show any app icon badging scheme when all of the app's notification channels have set the value asfalse
. - MAY override the app icon badges with their proprietary badging scheme when third-party applications indicate support of the proprietary badging scheme through the use of proprietary APIs, but SHOULD use the resources and values provided through the notification badges APIs described in the SDK , such as the
Notification.Builder.setNumber()
and theNotification.Builder.setBadgeIconType()
API.
3.8.2. Виджеты
Android supports third-party app widgets by defining a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that allows applications to expose an “AppWidget” to the end user.
If device implementations support third-party app widgets, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST declare support for platform feature
android.software.app_widgets
. - [C-1-2] MUST include built-in support for AppWidgets and expose user interface affordances to add, configure, view, and remove AppWidgets directly within the Launcher.
- [C-1-3] MUST be capable of rendering widgets that are 4 x 4 in the standard grid size. See the App Widget DesignGuidelines in the Android SDK documentation for details.
- MAY support application widgets on the lock screen.
If device implementations support third-party app widgets and in-app pinning of shortcuts, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST report
true
forAppWidgetManager.html.isRequestPinAppWidgetSupported()
. - [C-2-2] MUST have user affordance asking the user before adding a shortcut requested by apps via the
AppWidgetManager.requestPinAppWidget()
API method.
3.8.3. Уведомления
Android includes Notification
and NotificationManager
APIs that allow third-party app developers to notify users of notable events and attract users' attention using the hardware components (eg sound, vibration and light) and software features (eg notification shade, system bar) of the device .
3.8.3.1. Presentation of Notifications
If device implementations allow third-party apps to notify users of notable events , they:
- [C-1-1] MUST support notifications that use hardware features, as described in the SDK documentation, and to the extent possible with the device implementation hardware. For instance, if a device implementation includes a vibrator, it MUST correctly implement the vibration APIs. If a device implementation lacks hardware, the corresponding APIs MUST be implemented as no-ops. This behavior is further detailed in section 7 .
- [C-1-2] MUST correctly render all resources (icons, animation files, etc.) provided for in the APIs, or in the Status/System Bar icon style guide , although they MAY provide an alternative user experience for notifications than that provided by the reference Android Open Source implementation.
- [C-1-3] MUST honor and implement properly the behaviors described for the APIs to update, remove and group notifications.
- [C-1-4] MUST provide the full behavior of the NotificationChannel API documented in the SDK.
- [C-1-5] MUST provide a user affordance to block and modify a certain third-party app's notification per each channel and app package level.
- [C-1-6] MUST also provide a user affordance to display deleted notification channels.
- [C-1-7] MUST correctly render all resources (images, stickers, icons, etc.) provided through Notification.MessagingStyle alongside the notification text without additional user interaction. For example, MUST show all resources including icons provided through android.app.Person in a group conversation that is set through setGroupConversation .
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to automatically surface a user affordance to block a certain third-party app's notification per each channel and app package level after the user dismisses that notification multiple times.
- SHOULD support rich notifications.
- SHOULD present some higher priority notifications as heads-up notifications.
- SHOULD have a user affordance to snooze notifications.
- MAY only manage the visibility and timing of when third-party apps can notify users of notable events to mitigate safety issues such as driver distraction.
If device implementations support rich notifications, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST use the exact resources as provided through the
Notification.Style
API class and its subclasses for the presented resource elements. - SHOULD present each and every resource element (eg icon, title and summary text) defined in the
Notification.Style
API class and its subclasses.
If device implementations support heads-up notifications: they:
- [C-3-1] MUST use the heads-up notification view and resources as described in the
Notification.Builder
API class when heads-up notifications are presented. - [C-3-2] MUST display the actions provided through
Notification.Builder.addAction()
together with the notification content without additional user interaction as described in the SDK .
3.8.3.2. Notification Listener Service
Android includes the NotificationListenerService
APIs that allow apps (once explicitly enabled by the user) to receive a copy of all notifications as they are posted or updated.
If device implementations report the feature flag android.hardware.ram.normal
, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST correctly and promptly update notifications in their entirety to all such installed and user-enabled listener services, including any and all metadata attached to the Notification object.
- [C-1-2] MUST respect the
snoozeNotification()
API call, and dismiss the notification and make a callback after the snooze duration that is set in the API call.
If device implementations have a user affordance to snooze notifications, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST reflect the snoozed notification status properly through the standard APIs such as
NotificationListenerService.getSnoozedNotifications()
. - [C-2-2] MUST make this user affordance available to snooze notifications from each installed third-party app's, unless they are from persistent/foreground services.
3.8.3.3. DND (Do not Disturb)
If device implementations support the DND feature, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST implement an activity that would respond to the intent ACTION_NOTIFICATION_POLICY_ACCESS_SETTINGS , which for implementations with UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL it MUST be an activity where the user can grant or deny the app access to DND policy configurations.
- [C-1-2] MUST, for when the device implementation has provided a means for the user to grant or deny third-party apps to access the DND policy configuration, display Automatic DND rules created by applications alongside the user-created and pre-defined rules.
- [C-1-3] MUST honor the
suppressedVisualEffects
values passed along theNotificationManager.Policy
and if an app has set any of the SUPPRESSED_EFFECT_SCREEN_OFF or SUPPRESSED_EFFECT_SCREEN_ON flags, it SHOULD indicate to the user that the visual effects are suppressed in the DND settings menu.
3.8.4. Поиск
Android includes APIs that allow developers to incorporate search into their applications and expose their application's data into the global system search. Generally speaking, this functionality consists of a single, system-wide user interface that allows users to enter queries, displays suggestions as users type, and displays results. The Android APIs allow developers to reuse this interface to provide search within their own apps and allow developers to supply results to the common global search user interface.
- Android device implementations SHOULD include global search, a single, shared, system-wide search user interface capable of real-time suggestions in response to user input.
If device implementations implement the global search interface, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST implement the APIs that allow third-party applications to add suggestions to the search box when it is run in global search mode.
If no third-party applications are installed that make use of the global search:
- The default behavior SHOULD be to display web search engine results and suggestions.
Android also includes the Assist APIs to allow applications to elect how much information of the current context is shared with the assistant on the device.
If device implementations support the Assist action, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST indicate clearly to the end user when the context is shared, by either:
- Each time the assist app accesses the context, displaying a white light around the edges of the screen that meet or exceed the duration and brightness of the Android Open Source Project implementation.
- For the preinstalled assist app, providing a user affordance less than two navigations away from the default voice input and assistant app settings menu , and only sharing the context when the assist app is explicitly invoked by the user through a hotword or assist navigation key input.
- [C-2-2] The designated interaction to launch the assist app as described in section 7.2.3 MUST launch the user-selected assist app, in other words the app that implements
VoiceInteractionService
, or an activity handling theACTION_ASSIST
intent.
3.8.5. Alerts and Toasts
Applications can use the Toast
API to display short non-modal strings to the end user that disappear after a brief period of time, and use the TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY
window type API to display alert windows as an overlay over other apps.
If device implementations include a screen or video output, they:
[C-1-1] MUST provide a user affordance to block an app from displaying alert windows that use the
TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY
. The AOSP implementation meets this requirement by having controls in the notification shade.[C-1-2] MUST honor the Toast API and display Toasts from applications to end users in some highly visible manner.
3.8.6. Темы
Android provides “themes” as a mechanism for applications to apply styles across an entire Activity or application.
Android includes a “Holo” and "Material" theme family as a set of defined styles for application developers to use if they want to match the Holo theme look and feel as defined by the Android SDK.
If device implementations include a screen or video output, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST NOT alter any of the Holo theme attributes exposed to applications.
- [C-1-2] MUST support the “Material” theme family and MUST NOT alter any of the Material theme attributes or their assets exposed to applications.
Android also includes a “Device Default” theme family as a set of defined styles for application developers to use if they want to match the look and feel of the device theme as defined by the device implementer.
- Device implementations MAY modify the Device Default theme attributes exposed to applications.
Android supports a variant theme with translucent system bars, which allows application developers to fill the area behind the status and navigation bar with their app content. To enable a consistent developer experience in this configuration, it is important the status bar icon style is maintained across different device implementations.
If device implementations include a system status bar, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST use white for system status icons (such as signal strength and battery level) and notifications issued by the system, unless the icon is indicating a problematic status or an app requests a light status bar using the SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LIGHT_STATUS_BAR flag .
- [C-2-2] Android device implementations MUST change the color of the system status icons to black (for details, refer to R.style ) when an app requests a light status bar.
3.8.7. Живые обои
Android defines a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that allows applications to expose one or more “Live Wallpapers” to the end user. Live wallpapers are animations, patterns, or similar images with limited input capabilities that display as a wallpaper, behind other applications.
Hardware is considered capable of reliably running live wallpapers if it can run all live wallpapers, with no limitations on functionality, at a reasonable frame rate with no adverse effects on other applications. If limitations in the hardware cause wallpapers and/or applications to crash, malfunction, consume excessive CPU or battery power, or run at unacceptably low frame rates, the hardware is considered incapable of running live wallpaper. As an example, some live wallpapers may use an OpenGL 2.0 or 3.x context to render their content. Live wallpaper will not run reliably on hardware that does not support multiple OpenGL contexts because the live wallpaper use of an OpenGL context may conflict with other applications that also use an OpenGL context.
- Device implementations capable of running live wallpapers reliably as described above SHOULD implement live wallpapers.
If device implementations implement live wallpapers, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST report the platform feature flag android.software.live_wallpaper.
3.8.8. Activity Switching

Device implementations including the recents function navigation key as detailed in section 7.2.3 MAY alter the interface.
If device implementations including the recents function navigation key as detailed in section 7.2.3 alter the interface, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST support at least up to 7 displayed activities.
- SHOULD at least display the title of 4 activities at a time.
- [C-1-2] MUST implement the screen pinning behavior and provide the user with a settings menu to toggle the feature.
- SHOULD display highlight color, icon, screen title in recents.
- SHOULD display a closing affordance ("x") but MAY delay this until user interacts with screens.
- SHOULD implement a shortcut to switch easily to the previous activity.
- SHOULD trigger the fast-switch action between the two most recently used apps, when the recents function key is tapped twice.
- SHOULD trigger the split-screen multiwindow-mode, if supported, when the recents functions key is long pressed.
- MAY display affiliated recents as a group that moves together.
- [SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use the upstream Android user interface (or a similar thumbnail-based interface) for the overview screen.

AutofillService
andAutofillManager
APIs and honor theandroid.settings.REQUEST_SET_AUTOFILL_SERVICE
intent to show a default app settings menu to enable and disable autofill and change the default autofill service for the user.
3.8.10. Lock Screen Media Control
The Remote Control Client API is deprecated from Android 5.0 in favor of the Media Notification Template that allows media applications to integrate with playback controls that are displayed on the lock screen.
3.8.11. Screen savers (previously Dreams)
Android includes support for interactive screen savers , previously referred to as Dreams. Screen savers allow users to interact with applications when a device connected to a power source is idle or docked in a desk dock. Android Watch devices MAY implement screen savers, but other types of device implementations SHOULD include support for screen savers and provide a settings option for users to configure screen savers in response to the android.settings.DREAM_SETTINGS
intent.
3.8.12. Расположение
If device implementations include a hardware sensor (eg GPS) that is capable of providing the location coordinates, they
- [C-1-2] MUST display the current status of location in the Location menu within Settings.
- [C-1-3] MUST NOT display location modes in the Location menu within Settings.

language code with [script code Qaag](
http://unicode.org/reports/tr35/#unicode_script_subtag_validity) is
specified (e.g. my-Qaag). No other ISO language or region codes (whether
assigned, unassigned, or reserved) can be used to refer to non-Unicode
compliant font for Myanmar. App developers and web page authors can
specify my-Qaag as the designated language code as they would for any
other language.

- [C-3-1] MUST launch activities in picture-in-picture multi-window mode when the app is: * Targeting API level 26 or higher and declares
android:supportsPictureInPicture
* Targeting API level 25 or lower and declares bothandroid:resizeableActivity
andandroid:supportsPictureInPicture
. - [C-3-2] MUST expose the actions in their SystemUI as specified by the current PIP activity through the
setActions()
API. - [C-3-3] MUST support aspect ratios greater than or equal to 1:2.39 and less than or equal to 2.39:1, as specified by the PIP activity through the
setAspectRatio()
API. - [C-3-4] MUST use
KeyEvent.KEYCODE_WINDOW
to control the PIP window; if PIP mode is not implemented, the key MUST be available to the foreground activity. - [C-3-5] MUST provide a user affordance to block an app from displaying in PIP mode; the AOSP implementation meets this requirement by having controls in the notification shade.
- [C-3-6] MUST allocate minimum width and height of 108 dp for the PIP window and minimum width of 240 dp and height of 135 dp for the PIP window when the
Configuration.uiMode

set to"instant"
. - [C-0-2] Instant Apps MUST NOT interact with installed apps via implicit intents unless one of the following is true:
- The component's intent pattern filter is exposed and has CATEGORY_BROWSABLE
- The action is one of ACTION_SEND, ACTION_SENDTO, ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE

- [C-0-3] Instant Apps MUST NOT interact explicitly with installed apps unless the component is exposed via android:visibleToInstantApps.
- [C-0-4] Installed Apps MUST NOT see details about Instant Apps on the device unless the Instant App explicitly connects to the installed application.
- Device implementations MUST provide the following user affordances for interacting with Instant Apps. The AOSP meets the requirements with the default System UI, Settings, and Launcher. Device implementations:
- [C-0-5] MUST provide a user affordance to view and delete Instant Apps locally cached for each individual app package.
- [C-0-6] MUST provide a persistent user notification that can be collapsed while an Instant App is running in the foreground. This user notification MUST include that Instant Apps do not require installation and provide a user affordance that directs the user to the application info screen in Settings. For Instant Apps launched via web intents, as defined by using an intent with action set to
Intent.ACTION_VIEW
and with a scheme of "http" or "https", an additional user affordance SHOULD allow the user not to launch the Instant App and launch the associated link with the configured web browser, if a browser is available on the device. - [C-0-7] MUST allow running Instant Apps to be accessed from the Recents function if the Recents function is available on the device.

cantSaveState
running in the system at a time. If the user leaves such an app without explicitly exiting it (for example by pressing home while leaving an active activity the system, instead of pressing back with no remaining active activities in the system), then device implementations MUST prioritize that app in RAM as they do for other things that are expected to remain running, such as foreground services. While such an app is in the background, the system can still apply power management features to it, such as limiting CPU and network access. - [C-1-2] MUST provide a UI affordance to chose the app that won't participate in the normal state save/restore mechanism once the user launches a second app declared with
cantSaveState
attribute. - [C-1-3] MUST NOT apply other changes in policy to apps that specify
cantSaveState
, such as changing CPU performance or changing scheduling prioritization.
If device implementations don't declare the feature FEATURE_CANT_SAVE_STATE

cantSaveState
attribute set by apps and MUST NOT change the app behavior based on that attribute.
4. Application Packaging Compatibility
Devices implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST be capable of installing and running Android “.apk” files as generated by the “aapt” tool included in the official Android SDK .

- [C-0-3] MUST NOT extend either the .apk , Android Manifest , Dalvik bytecode , or RenderScript bytecode formats in such a way that would prevent those files from installing and running correctly on other compatible devices.
[C-0-4] MUST NOT allow apps other than the current "installer of record" for the package to silently uninstall the app without any user confirmation, as documented in the SDK for the
DELETE_PACKAGE
permission. The only exceptions are the system package verifier app handling PACKAGE_NEEDS_VERIFICATION intent and the storage manager app handling ACTION_MANAGE_STORAGE intent.[C-0-5] MUST have an activity that handles the
android.settings.MANAGE_UNKNOWN_APP_SOURCES
intent.[C-0-6] MUST NOT install application packages from unknown sources, unless the app that requests the installation meets all the following requirements:
- It MUST declare the
REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES
permission or have theandroid:targetSdkVersion
set at 24 or lower. - It MUST have been granted permission by the user to install apps from unknown sources.
- It MUST declare the
SHOULD provide a user affordance to grant/revoke the permission to install apps from unknown sources per application, but MAY choose to implement this as a no-op and return
RESULT_CANCELED
forstartActivityForResult()
, if the device implementation does not want to allow users to have this choice. However, even in such cases, they SHOULD indicate to the user why there is no such choice presented.[C-0-7] MUST display a warning dialog with the warning string that is provided through the system API
PackageManager.setHarmfulAppWarning
to the user before launching an activity in an application that has been marked by the same system APIPackageManager.setHarmfulAppWarning
as potentially вредный.- SHOULD provide a user affordance to choose to uninstall or launch an application on the warning dialog.

MediaCodecList
. - [C-0-3] MUST be able to properly decode and make available to third-party apps all the formats it can encode. This includes all bitstreams that its encoders generate and the profiles reported in its
CamcorderProfile
.
Device implementations:

Audio latency is the time delay as an audio signal passes through a system. Many classes of applications rely on short latencies, to achieve real-time sound effects.
For the purposes of this section, use the following definitions:
- output latency . The interval between when an application writes a frame of PCM-coded data and when the corresponding sound is presented to environment at an on-device transducer or signal leaves the device via a port and can be observed externally.
- cold output latency . The output latency for the first frame, when the audio output system has been idle and powered down prior to the request.
- continuous output latency . The output latency for subsequent frames, after the device is playing audio.
- input latency . The interval between when a sound is presented by environment to device at an on-device transducer or signal enters the device via a port and when an application reads the corresponding frame of PCM-coded data.
- lost input . The initial portion of an input signal that is unusable or unavailable.
- cold input latency . The sum of lost input time and the input latency for the first frame, when the audio input system has been idle and powered down prior to the request.
- continuous input latency . The input latency for subsequent frames, while the device is capturing audio.
- cold output jitter . The variability among separate measurements of cold output latency values.
- cold input jitter . The variability among separate measurements of cold input latency values.
- continuous round-trip latency . The sum of continuous input latency plus continuous output latency plus one buffer period. The buffer period allows time for the app to process the signal and time for the app to mitigate phase difference between input and output streams.
- OpenSL ES PCM buffer queue API . The set of PCM-related OpenSL ES APIs within Android NDK .
- AAudio native audio API . The set of AAudio APIs within Android NDK .
- timestamp . A pair consisting of a relative frame position within a stream and the estimated time when that frame enters or leaves the audio processing pipeline on the associated endpoint. See also AudioTimestamp .
- glitch . A temporary interruption or incorrect sample value in the audio signal, typically caused by a buffer underrun for output, buffer overrun for input, or any other source of digital or analog noise.

- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support simultaneous I/O up to 8 channels each direction, 96 kHz sample rate, and 24-bit or 32-bit depth, when used with USB audio peripherals that also support these requirements.
If device implementations include an HDMI port, they:
- SHOULD support output in stereo and eight channels at 20-bit or 24-bit depth and 192 kHz without bit-depth loss or resampling, in at least one configuration.
5.11. Capture for Unprocessed
Android includes support for recording of unprocessed audio via the android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource.UNPROCESSED
audio source. In OpenSL ES, it can be accessed with the record preset SL_ANDROID_RECORDING_PRESET_UNPROCESSED
.
If device implementations intent to support unprocessed audio source and make it available to third-party apps, they:
[C-1-1] MUST report the support through the
android.media.AudioManager
property PROPERTY_SUPPORT_AUDIO_SOURCE_UNPROCESSED .[C-1-2] MUST exhibit approximately flat amplitude-versus-frequency characteristics in the mid-frequency range: specifically ±10dB from 100 Hz to 7000 Hz for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.
[C-1-3] MUST exhibit amplitude levels in the low frequency range: specifically from ±20 dB from 5 Hz to 100 Hz compared to the mid-frequency range for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.
[C-1-4] MUST exhibit amplitude levels in the high frequency range: specifically from ±30 dB from 7000 Hz to 22 KHz compared to the mid-frequency range for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.
[C-1-5] MUST set audio input sensitivity such that a 1000 Hz sinusoidal tone source played at 94 dB Sound Pressure Level (SPL) yields a response with RMS of 520 for 16 bit-samples (or -36 dB Full Scale for floating point/double precision samples) for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.
[C-1-6] MUST have a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at 60 dB or higher for each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source. (whereas the SNR is measured as the difference between 94 dB SPL and equivalent SPL of self noise, A-weighted).
[C-1-7] MUST have a total harmonic distortion (THD) less than be less than 1% for 1 kHZ at 90 dB SPL input level at each and every microphone used to record the unprocessed audio source.
MUST not have any other signal processing (eg Automatic Gain Control, High Pass Filter, or Echo cancellation) in the path other than a level multiplier to bring the level to desired range. Другими словами:
- [C-1-8] If any signal processing is present in the architecture for any reason, it MUST be disabled and effectively introduce zero delay or extra latency to the signal path.
- [C-1-9] The level multiplier, while allowed to be on the path, MUST NOT introduce delay or latency to the signal path.
All SPL measurements are made directly next to the microphone under test. For multiple microphone configurations, these requirements apply to each microphone.
If device implementations declare android.hardware.microphone
but do not support unprocessed audio source, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST return
null
for theAudioManager.getProperty(PROPERTY_SUPPORT_AUDIO_SOURCE_UNPROCESSED)
API method, to properly indicate the lack of support. - [SR] are still STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to satisfy as many of the requirements for the signal path for the unprocessed recording source.

Android includes support for developers to configure application development-related settings.
Device implementations MUST provide a consistent experience for Developer Options, they:
- [C-0-1] MUST honor the android.settings.APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS intent to show application development-related settings. The upstream Android implementation hides the Developer Options menu by default and enables users to launch Developer Options after pressing seven (7) times on the Settings > About Device > Build Number menu item.
- [C-0-2] MUST hide Developer Options by default.
- [C-0-3] MUST provide a clear mechanism that does not give preferential treatment to one third-party app as opposed to another to enable Developer Options.

- SHOULD have an ongoing visual notification to the user when Developer Options is enabled and the safety of the user is of concern.
- MAY temporarily limit access to the Developer Options menu, by visually hiding or disabling the menu, to prevent distraction for scenarios where the safety of the user is of concern.
7. Hardware Compatibility
If a device includes a particular hardware component that has a corresponding API for third-party developers:
- [C-0-1] The device implementation MUST implement that API as described in the Android SDK documentation.
If an API in the SDK interacts with a hardware component that is stated to be optional and the device implementation does not possess that component:
- [C-0-2] Complete class definitions (as documented by the SDK) for the component APIs MUST still be presented.
- [C-0-3] The API's behaviors MUST be implemented as no-ops in some reasonable fashion.
- [C-0-4] API methods MUST return null values where permitted by the SDK documentation.

- [C-0-7] Device implementations MUST consistently report accurate hardware configuration information via the
getSystemAvailableFeatures()
andhasSystemFeature(String)
methods on the android.content.pm.PackageManager class for the same build fingerprint.
A typical example of a scenario where these requirements apply is the telephony API: Even on non-phone devices, these APIs MUST be implemented as reasonable no-ops.
7.1. Display and Graphics
Android includes facilities that automatically adjust application assets and UI layouts appropriately for the device to ensure that third-party applications run well on a variety of hardware configurations . On the Android-compatible display(s) where all third-party Android-compatible applications can run, device implementations MUST properly implement these APIs and behaviors, as detailed in this section.
The units referenced by the requirements in this section are defined as follows:
- physical diagonal size . The distance in inches between two opposing corners of the illuminated portion of the display.
- dots per inch (dpi) . The number of pixels encompassed by a linear horizontal or vertical span of 1”. Where dpi values are listed, both horizontal and vertical dpi MUST fall within the range.
- aspect ratio . The ratio of the pixels of the longer dimension to the shorter dimension of the screen. For example, a display of 480x854 pixels would be 854/480 = 1.779, or roughly “16:9”.
- density-independent pixel (dp) . The virtual pixel unit normalized to a 160 dpi screen, calculated as: pixels = dps * (density/160).
7.1.1. Screen Configuration
7.1.1.1. Screen Size and Shape
The Android UI framework supports a variety of different logical screen layout sizes, and allows applications to query the current configuration's screen layout size via Configuration.screenLayout
with the SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_MASK
and Configuration.smallestScreenWidthDp
.
Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST report the correct layout size for the
Configuration.screenLayout
as defined in the Android SDK documentation. Specifically, device implementations MUST report the correct logical density-independent pixel (dp) screen dimensions as below:- Devices with the
Configuration.uiMode
set as any value other than UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH, and reporting asmall
size for theConfiguration.screenLayout
, MUST have at least 426 dp x 320 dp. - Devices reporting a
normal
size for theConfiguration.screenLayout
, MUST have at least 480 dp x 320 dp. - Devices reporting a
large
size for theConfiguration.screenLayout
, MUST have at least 640 dp x 480 dp. - Devices reporting a
xlarge
size for theConfiguration.screenLayout
, MUST have at least 960 dp x 720 dp.
- Devices with the
[C-0-2] MUST correctly honor applications' stated support for screen sizes through the <
supports-screens
> attribute in the AndroidManifest.xml, as described in the Android SDK documentation.MAY have the Android-compatible display(s) with rounded corners.
If device implementations support UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL
and include the Android-compatible display(s) with rounded corners, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST ensure that the radius of the rounded corners is less than or equal to 38 dp.
- SHOULD include user affordance to switch to the display mode with the rectangular corners.
7.1.1.2. Screen Aspect Ratio
While there is no restriction to the aspect ratio of the physical display for the Android-compatible display(s), the aspect ratio of the logical display where third-party apps are rendered, which can be derived from the height and width values reported through the view.Display
APIs and Configuration APIs, MUST meet the following requirements:
[C-0-1] Device implementations with
Configuration.uiMode
set toUI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL
MUST have an aspect ratio value less than or equal to 1.86 (roughly 16:9), unless the app meets one of the following conditions:- The app has declared that it supports a larger screen aspect ratio through the
android.max_aspect
metadata value. - The app declares it is resizeable via the android:resizeableActivity attribute.
- The app targets API level 24 or higher and does not declare an
android:maxAspectRatio
that would restrict the allowed aspect ratio.
- The app has declared that it supports a larger screen aspect ratio through the
[C-0-2] Device implementations with
Configuration.uiMode
set toUI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL
MUST have an aspect ratio value equal to or greater than 1.3333 (4:3), unless the app can be stretched wider by meeting one of the following conditions:- The app declares it is resizeable via the android:resizeableActivity attribute.
- The app declares an
android:minAspectRatio
that would restrict the allowed aspect ratio.
[C-0-3] Device implementations with the
Configuration.uiMode
set asUI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH
MUST have an aspect ratio value set as 1.0 (1:1).
7.1.1.3. Screen Density
The Android UI framework defines a set of standard logical densities to help application developers target application resources.
[C-0-1] By default, device implementations MUST report only one of the Android framework densities that are listed on
DisplayMetrics
through theDENSITY_DEVICE_STABLE
API and this value MUST NOT change at any time; however, the device MAY report a different arbitrary density according to the display configuration changes made by the user (for example, display size) set after initial boot.Device implementations SHOULD define the standard Android framework density that is numerically closest to the physical density of the screen, unless that logical density pushes the reported screen size below the minimum supported. If the standard Android framework density that is numerically closest to the physical density results in a screen size that is smaller than the smallest supported compatible screen size (320 dp width), device implementations SHOULD report the next lowest standard Android framework density.
If there is an affordance to change the display size of the device:
- [C-1-1] The display size MUST NOT be scaled any larger than 1.5 times the native density or produce an effective minimum screen dimension smaller than 320dp (equivalent to resource qualifier sw320dp), whichever comes first.
- [C-1-2] Display size MUST NOT be scaled any smaller than 0.85 times the native density.
- To ensure good usability and consistent font sizes, it is RECOMMENDED that the following scaling of Native Display options be provided (while complying with the limits specified above)
- Small: 0.85x
- Default: 1x (Native display scale)
- Large: 1.15x
- Larger: 1.3x

android.util.DisplayMetrics
API.
If device implementations does not include an embedded screen or video output, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST report correct values of the Android-compatible display as defined in the
android.util.DisplayMetrics
API for the emulated defaultview.Display
.
7.1.3. Screen Orientation
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST report which screen orientations they support (
android.hardware.screen.portrait
and/orandroid.hardware.screen.landscape
) and MUST report at least one supported orientation. For example, a device with a fixed orientation landscape screen, such as a television or laptop, SHOULD only reportandroid.hardware.screen.landscape
. - [C-0-2] MUST report the correct value for the device's current orientation, whenever queried via the
android.content.res.Configuration.orientation
,android.view.Display.getOrientation()
, or other APIs.
If device implementations support both screen orientations, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST support dynamic orientation by applications to either portrait or landscape screen orientation. That is, the device MUST respect the application's request for a specific screen orientation.
- [C-1-2] MUST NOT change the reported screen size or density when changing orientation.

The upstream Android open source implementation includes a selection mechanism suitable for use with devices that lack non-touch navigation inputs.
7.2.3. Navigation Keys
The Home , Recents , and Back functions typically provided via an interaction with a dedicated physical button or a distinct portion of the touch screen, are essential to the Android navigation paradigm and therefore, device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST provide a user affordance to launch installed applications that have an activity with the
<intent-filter>
set withACTION=MAIN
andCATEGORY=LAUNCHER
orCATEGORY=LEANBACK_LAUNCHER
for Television device implementations. The Home function SHOULD be the mechanism for this user affordance. - SHOULD provide buttons for the Recents and Back function.
If the Home, Recents, or Back functions are provided, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST be accessible with a single action (eg tap, double-click or gesture) when any of them are accessible.
- [C-1-2] MUST provide a clear indication of which single action would trigger each function. Having a visible icon imprinted on the button, showing a software icon on the navigation bar portion of the screen, or walking the user through a guided step-by-step demo flow during the out-of-box setup experience are examples of such an индикация.
Device implementations:
- [SR] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to not provide the input mechanism for the Menu function as it is deprecated in favor of action bar since Android 4.0.

is less than 10, either by a physical button, a software key, or gestures. This Menu function SHOULD be accessible unless hidden together with other navigation functions.
If device implementations provide the Assist function , they:
- [C-4-1] MUST make the Assist function accessible with a single action (eg tap, double-click or gesture) when other navigation keys are accessible.
- [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to use long press on HOME function as this designated interaction.
If device implementations use a distinct portion of the screen to display the navigation keys, they:
- [C-5-1] Navigation keys MUST use a distinct portion of the screen, not available to applications, and MUST NOT obscure or otherwise interfere with the portion of the screen available to applications.
- [C-5-2] MUST make available a portion of the display to applications that meets the requirements defined in section 7.1.1 .
- [C-5-3] MUST honor the flags set by the app through the
View.setSystemUiVisibility()
API method, so that this distinct portion of the screen (aka the navigation bar) is properly hidden away as documented in the SDK.
If the navigation function is provided as an on-screen, gesture-based action:
- [C-6-1]
WindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets()
MUST only be used to report the Home gesture recognition area. - [C-6-2] Gestures that start within an exclusion rect as provided by the foreground application via
View#setSystemGestureExclusionRects()
, but outside ofWindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets()
, MUST NOT be intercepted for the navigation function as long as the exclusion rect is allowed within the max exclusion limit as specified in the documentation forView#setSystemGestureExclusionRects()
. - [C-6-3] MUST send the foreground app a
MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL
event once touches start being intercepted for a system gesture, if the foreground app was previously sent anMotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN
event. - [C-6-4] MUST provide a user affordance to switch to an on-screen, button-based navigation (for example, in Settings).
- SHOULD provide Home function as a swipe up from the bottom edge of the current orientation of the screen.
- SHOULD provide Recents function as a swipe up and hold before release, from the same area as the Home gesture.
- Gestures that start within
WindowInsets#getMandatorySystemGestureInsets()
SHOULD NOT be affected by exclusion rects provided by the foreground application viaView#setSystemGestureExclusionRects()
.
If a navigation function is provided from anywhere on the left and right edges of the current orientation of the screen:
- [C-7-1] The navigation function MUST be Back and provided as a swipe from both left and right edges of the current orientation of the screen.
- [C-7-2] If custom swipeable system panels are provided on the left or right edges, they MUST be placed within the top 1/3rd of the screen with a clear, persistent visual indication that dragging in would invoke the aforementioned panels, and hence not Back. A system panel MAY be configured by a user such that it lands below the top 1/3rd of the screen edge(s) but the system panel MUST NOT use longer than 1/3rd of the edge(s).

7.2.4. Touchscreen Input
Android includes support for a variety of pointer input systems, such as touchscreens, touch pads, and fake touch input devices. Touchscreen-based device implementations are associated with a display such that the user has the impression of directly manipulating items on screen. Since the user is directly touching the screen, the system does not require any additional affordances to indicate the objects being manipulated.
Device implementations:
- SHOULD have a pointer input system of some kind (either mouse-like or touch).
- SHOULD support fully independently tracked pointers.
If device implementations include a touchscreen (single-touch or better), they:
- [C-1-1] MUST report
TOUCHSCREEN_FINGER
for theConfiguration.touchscreen
API field. - [C-1-2] MUST report the
android.hardware.touchscreen
andandroid.hardware.faketouch
feature flags.
If device implementations include a touchscreen that can track more than a single touch, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST report the appropriate feature flags
android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch
,android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct
,android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.jazzhand
corresponding to the type of the specific touchscreen on the устройство.
If device implementations do not include a touchscreen (and rely on a pointer device only) and meet the fake touch requirements in section 7.2.5 , they:
- [C-3-1] MUST NOT report any feature flag starting with
android.hardware.touchscreen
and MUST report onlyandroid.hardware.faketouch
.
7.2.5. Fake Touch Input
Fake touch interface provides a user input system that approximates a subset of touchscreen capabilities. For example, a mouse or remote control that drives an on-screen cursor approximates touch, but requires the user to first point or focus then click. Numerous input devices like the mouse, trackpad, gyro-based air mouse, gyro-pointer, joystick, and multi-touch trackpad can support fake touch interactions. Android includes the feature constant android.hardware.faketouch, which corresponds to a high-fidelity non-touch (pointer-based) input device such as a mouse or trackpad that can adequately emulate touch-based input (including basic gesture support), and indicates that the device supports an emulated subset of touchscreen functionality.
If device implementations do not include a touchscreen but include another pointer input system which they want to make available, they:
- SHOULD declare support for the
android.hardware.faketouch
feature flag.
If device implementations declare support for android.hardware.faketouch
, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST report the absolute X and Y screen positions of the pointer location and display a visual pointer on the screen.
- [C-1-2] MUST report touch event with the action code that specifies the state change that occurs on the pointer going down or up on the screen .
- [C-1-3] MUST support pointer down and up on an object on the screen, which allows users to emulate tap on an object on the screen.
- [C-1-4] MUST support pointer down, pointer up, pointer down then pointer up in the same place on an object on the screen within a time threshold, which allows users to emulate double tap on an object on the screen.
- [C-1-5] MUST support pointer down on an arbitrary point on the screen, pointer move to any other arbitrary point on the screen, followed by a pointer up, which allows users to emulate a touch drag.
- [C-1-6] MUST support pointer down then allow users to quickly move the object to a different position on the screen and then pointer up on the screen, which allows users to fling an object on the screen.
- [C-1-7] MUST report
TOUCHSCREEN_NOTOUCH
for theConfiguration.touchscreen
API field.
If device implementations declare support for android.hardware.faketouch.multitouch.distinct
, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST declare support for
android.hardware.faketouch
. - [C-2-2] MUST support distinct tracking of two or more independent pointer inputs.
If device implementations declare support for android.hardware.faketouch.multitouch.jazzhand
, they:
- [C-3-1] MUST declare support for
android.hardware.faketouch
. - [C-3-2] MUST support distinct tracking of 5 (tracking a hand of fingers) or more pointer inputs fully independently.
7.2.6. Game Controller Support
7.2.6.1. Button Mappings
If device implementations declare the android.hardware.gamepad
feature flag, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST have embed a controller or ship with a separate controller in the box, that would provide means to input all the events listed in the below tables.
- [C-1-2] MUST be capable to map HID events to its associated Android
view.InputEvent

If device implementations include a secure lock screen, they:
- SHOULD include a biometric sensor
Biometric sensors can be classified as Strong , Weak , or Convenience based on their spoof and imposter acceptance rates, and on the security of the biometric pipeline. This classification determines the capabilities the biometric sensor has to interface with the platform and with third-party applications. Sensors are classified as Convenience by default, and need to meet additional requirements as detailed below if they wish to be classified as either Weak or Strong . Both Weak and Strong biometrics get additional capabilities as detailed below.
To make a biometric sensor available to third-party applications, device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST meet the requirements for Strong or Weak biometric as defined in this document.
To allow access to keystore keys to third-party applications, device implementations:
- [C-0-2] MUST meet the requirements for Strong as defined in this document.
Кроме того:
- [C-0-3] MUST be paired with an explicit confirm action (eg a button press) if that Strong biometric is passive (eg face or iris where no explicit signal of the user's intent exists).
- [C-SR] The confirm action for passive biometrics is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be secured such that an operating system or kernel compromise cannot spoof it. For example, this means that the confirm action based on a physical button is routed through an input-only general-purpose input/output (GPIO) pin of a secure element (SE) that cannot be driven by any other means than a physical button нажимать.
If device implementations wish to treat a biometric sensor as Convenience , they:
- [C-1-1] MUST have a false acceptance rate less than 0.002%.
- [C-1-2] MUST disclose that this mode may be less secure than a strong PIN, pattern, or password and clearly enumerate the risks of enabling it, if the spoof and imposter acceptance rates are higher than 7%.
- [C-1-3] MUST rate limit attempts for at least 30 seconds after five false trials for biometric verification - where a false trial is one with an adequate capture quality (
BIOMETRIC_ACQUIRED_GOOD
) that does not match an enrolled biometric. - [C-1-4] MUST prevent adding new biometrics without first establishing a chain of trust by having the user confirm existing or add a new device credential (PIN/pattern/password) that's secured by TEE; the Android Open Source Project implementation provides the mechanism in the framework to do so.
- [C-1-5] MUST completely remove all identifiable biometric data for a user when the user's account is removed (including via a factory reset).
- [C-1-6] MUST honor the individual flag for that biometric (ie
DevicePolicyManager.KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT
,DevicePolicymanager.KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FACE
, orDevicePolicymanager.KEYGUARD_DISABLE_IRIS
). - [C-1-7] MUST challenge the user for the recommended primary authentication (eg PIN, pattern, password) once every 24 hours or less for new devices launching with Android version 10, once every 72 hours or less for devices upgrading from earlier Андроид-версия.
[C-1-8] MUST challenge the user for the recommended primary authentication (eg: PIN, pattern, password) after one of the following:
- A 4-hour idle timeout period, OR
- 3 failed biometric authentication attempts.
- The idle timeout period and the failed authentication count is reset after any successful confirmation of the device credentials.
Upgrading devices from an earlier Android version can be exempted from C-1-8.
[C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to have a false rejection rate of less than 10%, as measured on the device.
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to have a latency below 1 second, measured from when the biometric is detected, until the screen is unlocked, for each enrolled biometric.
If device implementations wish to treat a biometric sensor as Weak , they:
- [C-2-1] MUST meet all requirements for Convenience above, except for [C-1-2].
- [C-2-2] MUST have a spoof and imposter acceptance rate not higher than 20%.
- [C-2-3] MUST have a hardware-backed keystore implementation, and perform the biometric matching in an isolated execution environment outside Android user or kernel space, such as the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), or on a chip with a secure channel to the isolated execution environment.
- [C-2-4] MUST have all identifiable data encrypted and cryptographically authenticated such that they cannot be acquired, read or altered outside of the isolated execution environment or a chip with a secure channel to the isolated execution environment as documented in the implementation guidelines on the Android Open Source Project site.
- [C-2-5] For camera based biometrics, while biometric based authentication or enrollment is happening:
- MUST operate the camera in a mode that prevents camera frames from being read or altered outside the isolated execution environment or a chip with a secure channel to the isolated execution environment.
- For RGB single-camera solutions, the camera frames CAN be readable outside the isolated execution environment to support operations such as preview for enrollment, but MUST still NOT be alterable.
- [C-2-6] MUST NOT enable third-party applications to distinguish between individual biometric enrollments.
- [C-2-7] MUST NOT allow unencrypted access to identifiable biometric data or any data derived from it (such as embeddings) to the Application Processor outside the context of the TEE.
[C-2-8] MUST have a secure processing pipeline such that an operating system or kernel compromise cannot allow data to be directly injected to falsely authenticate as the user.
If device implementations are already launched on an earlier Android version and cannot meet the requirement C-2-8 through a system software update, they MAY be exempted from the requirement.
If device implementations wish to treat a biometric sensor as Strong , they:
- [C-3-1] MUST meet all the requirements of Weak above. Upgrading devices from an earlier Android version is not exempted from C-2-7.
- [C-3-2] MUST have a spoof and imposter acceptance rate not higher than 7%.
- [C-3-3] MUST challenge the user for the recommended primary authentication (eg PIN, pattern, password) once every 72 hours or less.

- [C-1-1] MUST implement and report
TYPE_POSE_6DOF
sensor. - [C-1-2] MUST be more accurate than the rotation vector alone.
7.4. Возможность подключения к данным
7.4.1. Телефония
“Telephony” as used by the Android APIs and this document refers specifically to hardware related to placing voice calls and sending SMS messages via a GSM or CDMA network. While these voice calls may or may not be packet-switched, they are for the purposes of Android considered independent of any data connectivity that may be implemented using the same network. In other words, the Android “telephony” functionality and APIs refer specifically to voice calls and SMS. For instance, device implementations that cannot place calls or send/receive SMS messages are not considered a telephony device, regardless of whether they use a cellular network for data connectivity.

- [C-1-6] MUST implement a blocked numbers management UI, which is opened with the intent returned by
TelecomManager.createManageBlockedNumbersIntent()
method. - [C-1-7] MUST NOT allow secondary users to view or edit the blocked numbers on the device as the Android platform assumes the primary user to have full control of the telephony services, a single instance, on the device. All blocking related UI MUST be hidden for secondary users and the blocked list MUST still be respected.
- SHOULD migrate the blocked numbers into the provider when a device updates to Android 7.0.

. - [C-1-2] MUST support USB Video Class (UVC 1.0 or higher) if the external camera connects through the USB host port.
- [C-1-3] MUST pass camera CTS tests with a physical external camera device connected. Details of camera CTS testing are available at source.android.com .

7.5.4. Camera API Behavior
Android includes two API packages to access the camera, the newer android.hardware.camera2 API expose lower-level camera control to the app, including efficient zero-copy burst/streaming flows and per-frame controls of exposure, gain, white balance gains, color conversion, denoising, sharpening, and more.
The older API package, android.hardware.Camera
, is marked as deprecated in Android 5.0 but as it SHOULD still be available for apps to use. Android device implementations MUST ensure the continued support of the API as described in this section and in the Android SDK.
All features that are common between the deprecated android.hardware.Camera class and the newer android.hardware.camera2 package MUST have equivalent performance and quality in both APIs. For example, with equivalent settings, autofocus speed and accuracy MUST be identical, and the quality of captured images MUST be the same. Features that depend on the different semantics of the two APIs are not required to have matching speed or quality, but SHOULD match as closely as possible.
Device implementations MUST implement the following behaviors for the camera-related APIs, for all available cameras. Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST use
android.hardware.PixelFormat.YCbCr_420_SP
for preview data provided to application callbacks when an application has never calledandroid.hardware.Camera.Parameters.setPreviewFormat(int)
. - [C-0-2] MUST further be in the NV21 encoding format when an application registers an
android.hardware.Camera.PreviewCallback
instance and the system calls theonPreviewFrame()
method and the preview format is YCbCr_420_SP, the data in the byte[] passed intoonPreviewFrame()
. That is, NV21 MUST be the default. - [C-0-3] MUST support the YV12 format (as denoted by the
android.graphics.ImageFormat.YV12
constant) for camera previews for both front- and rear-facing cameras forandroid.hardware.Camera
. (The hardware video encoder and camera may use any native pixel format, but the device implementation MUST support conversion to YV12.) - [C-0-4] MUST support the
android.hardware.ImageFormat.YUV_420_888
andandroid.hardware.ImageFormat.JPEG
formats as outputs through theandroid.media.ImageReader
API forandroid.hardware.camera2
devices that advertiseREQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_BACKWARD_COMPATIBLE
capability inandroid.request.availableCapabilities
. - [C-0-5] MUST still implement the full Camera API included in the Android SDK documentation, regardless of whether the device includes hardware autofocus or other capabilities. For instance, cameras that lack autofocus MUST still call any registered
android.hardware.Camera.AutoFocusCallback
instances (even though this has no relevance to a non-autofocus camera.) Note that this does apply to front-facing cameras; for instance, even though most front-facing cameras do not support autofocus, the API callbacks MUST still be “faked” as described. - [C-0-6] MUST recognize and honor each parameter name defined as a constant in the
android.hardware.Camera.Parameters
class and theandroid.hardware.camera2.CaptureRequest
class. Conversely, device implementations MUST NOT honor or recognize string constants passed to theandroid.hardware.Camera.setParameters()
method other than those documented as constants on theandroid.hardware.Camera.Parameters
. That is, device implementations MUST support all standard Camera parameters if the hardware allows, and MUST NOT support custom Camera parameter types. For instance, device implementations that support image capture using high dynamic range (HDR) imaging techniques MUST support camera parameterCamera.SCENE_MODE_HDR
. - [C-0-7] MUST report the proper level of support with the
android.info.supportedHardwareLevel
property as described in the Android SDK and report the appropriate framework feature flags . - [C-0-8] MUST also declare its individual camera capabilities of
android.hardware.camera2
via theandroid.request.availableCapabilities
property and declare the appropriate feature flags ; MUST define the feature flag if any of its attached camera devices supports the feature. - [C-0-9] MUST broadcast the
Camera.ACTION_NEW_PICTURE
intent whenever a new picture is taken by the camera and the entry of the picture has been added to the media store. - [C-0-10] MUST broadcast the
Camera.ACTION_NEW_VIDEO
intent whenever a new video is recorded by the camera and the entry of the picture has been added to the media store. - [C-0-11] MUST have all cameras accessible via the deprecated
android.hardware.Camera
API also accessible via theandroid.hardware.camera2
API. - [C-SR] For devices with multiple RGB cameras facing in the same direction, are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support a logical camera device that lists capability
CameraMetadata.REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_LOGICAL_MULTI_CAMERA
, consisting of all of the RGB cameras facing that direction as physical sub-devices.
If device implementations provide a proprietary camera API to 3rd-party apps, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST implement such a camera API using
android.hardware.camera2
API. - MAY provide vendor tags and/or extensions to
android.hardware.camera2
API.
7.5.5. Camera Orientation
If device implementations have a front- or a rear-facing camera, such camera(s):
- [C-1-1] MUST be oriented so that the long dimension of the camera aligns with the screen's long dimension. That is, when the device is held in the landscape orientation, cameras MUST capture images in the landscape orientation. This applies regardless of the device's natural orientation; that is, it applies to landscape-primary devices as well as portrait-primary devices.
7.6. Память и хранение
7.6.1. Minimum Memory and Storage
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST include a Download Manager that applications MAY use to download data files and they MUST be capable of downloading individual files of at least 100MB in size to the default “cache” location.
7.6.2. Application Shared Storage
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST offer storage to be shared by applications, also often referred as “shared external storage”, "application shared storage" or by the Linux path "/sdcard" it is mounted on.
- [C-0-2] MUST be configured with shared storage mounted by default, in other words “out of the box”, regardless of whether the storage is implemented on an internal storage component or a removable storage medium (eg Secure Digital card slot ).
- [C-0-3] MUST mount the application shared storage directly on the Linux path
sdcard
or include a Linux symbolic link fromsdcard
to the actual mount point. - [C-0-4] MUST enforce the
android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
permission on this shared storage as documented in the SDK. - [C-0-5] MUST enable scoped storage by default for all apps targeting API level 29 or above, except in the following situations:
- when the app was installed before the device upgraded to API level 29, regardless of the target API of the app.
- when the app has requested
android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"
in their manifest. - when the app is granted the
android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE
permission.
- [C-0-6] MUST enforce that apps with scoped storage enabled have no direct filesystem access to files outside of their application-specific directories, as returned by
Context
API methods such asContext.getExternalFilesDirs()
,Context.getExternalCacheDirs()
,Context.getExternalMediaDirs()
, andContext.getObbDirs()
methods. - [C-0-7] MUST redact location metadata, such as GPS Exif tags, stored in media files when those files are accessed through
MediaStore
, except when the calling app holds theACCESS_MEDIA_LOCATION
permission.
Device implementations MAY meet the above requirements using either of the following:
- User-accessible removable storage, such as a Secure Digital (SD) card slot.
- A portion of the internal (non-removable) storage as implemented in the Android Open Source Project (AOSP).
If device implementations use removable storage to satisfy the above requirements, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST implement a toast or pop-up user interface warning the user when there is no storage medium inserted in the slot.

If device implementations use a portion of the non-removable storage to satisfy the above requirements, they:
- SHOULD use the AOSP implementation of the internal application shared storage.
- MAY share the storage space with the application private data.
If device implementations include multiple shared storage paths (such as both an SD card slot and shared internal storage), they:
- [C-2-1] MUST allow only pre-installed and privileged Android applications with the
WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE
permission to write to the secondary external storage, except when writing to their package-specific directories or within theURI
returned by firing theACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE
intent. - [C-2-2] MUST require that the direct access associated with the
android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE
permission is only given to user-visible apps when theandroid.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
permission is also granted. - [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that pre-installed and privileged Android applications use public APIs such as
MediaStore
to interact with storage devices, instead of relying on the direct access granted byandroid.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE
.
If device implementations have a USB port with USB peripheral mode support, they:
- [C-3-1] MUST provide a mechanism to access the data on the application shared storage from a host computer.
- SHOULD expose content from both storage paths transparently through Android's media scanner service and

partition) allows app developers to set a proper expectation that would help their software design. Device implementations, depending on the device type, MAY have certain requirements described in section 2 for the following read and write operations:
- Sequential write performance . Measured by writing a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
- Random write performance . Measured by writing a 256MB file using 4KB write buffer.
- Sequential read performance . Measured by reading a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
- Random read performance . Measured by reading a 256MB file using 4KB write buffer.
8.3. Power-Saving Modes
If device implementations include features to improve device power management that are included in AOSP or extend the features that are included in AOSP, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST NOT deviate from the AOSP implementation for the triggering, maintenance, wakeup algorithms and the use of global system settings of App Standby and Doze power-saving modes.
- [C-1-2] MUST NOT deviate from the AOSP implementation for the use of global settings to manage the throttling of jobs, alarm and network for apps in each bucket for App standby.
- [C-1-3] MUST NOT deviate from the AOSP implementation for the number of the App Standby Buckets used for App Standby.
- [C-1-4] MUST implement App Standby Buckets and Doze as described in Power Management .
- [C-1-5] MUST return
true
forPowerManager.isPowerSaveMode()
when the device is on power save mode. - [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide user affordance to enable and disable the battery saver feature.
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide user affordance to display all Apps that are exempted from App Standby and Doze power-saving modes.
In addition to the power-saving modes, Android device implementations MAY implement any or all of the 4 sleeping power states as defined by the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI).
If device implementations implement S4 power states as defined by the ACPI, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST enter this state only after the user has taken an explicit action to put the device in an inactive state (eg by closing a lid that is physically part of the device or turning off a vehicle or television) and before the user re-activates the device (eg by opening the lid or turning the vehicle or television back on).
If device implementations implement S3 power states as defined by the ACPI, they:
[C-2-1] MUST meet C-1-1 above, or, MUST enter S3 state only when third-party applications do not need the system resources (eg the screen, CPU).
Conversely, MUST exit from S3 state when third-party applications need the system resources, as described on this SDK.
For example, while the third-party applications request to keep the screen on through
FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON
or keep CPU running throughPARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK
, the device MUST NOT enter S3 state unless, as described in C-1-1, the user has taken explicit action to put the device in an inactive state. Conversely, at a time when a task that third-party apps implement through JobScheduler is triggered or Firebase Cloud Messaging is delivered to third-party apps, the device MUST exit the S3 state unless the user has put the device in an inactive state. These are not comprehensive examples and AOSP implements extensive wake-up signals that trigger a wakeup from this state.
8.4. Power Consumption Accounting
A more accurate accounting and reporting of the power consumption provides the app developer both the incentives and the tools to optimize the power usage pattern of the application.
Device implementations:
- [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide a per-component power profile that defines the current consumption value for each hardware component and the approximate battery drain caused by the components over time as documented in the Android Open Source Project site.
- [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to report all power consumption values in milliampere hours (mAh).
- [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to report CPU power consumption per each process's UID. The Android Open Source Project meets the requirement through the
uid_cputime
kernel module implementation. - [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to make this power usage available via the
adb shell dumpsys batterystats
shell command to the app developer. - SHOULD be attributed to the hardware component itself if unable to attribute hardware component power usage to an application.
8.5. Consistent Performance
Performance can fluctuate dramatically for high-performance long-running apps, either because of the other apps running in the background or the CPU throttling due to temperature limits. Android includes programmatic interfaces so that when the device is capable, the top foreground application can request that the system optimize the allocation of the resources to address such fluctuations.
Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST report the support of Sustained Performance Mode accurately through the
PowerManager.isSustainedPerformanceModeSupported()
API method.SHOULD support Sustained Performance Mode.
If device implementations report support of Sustained Performance Mode, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST provide the top foreground application a consistent level of performance for at least 30 minutes, when the app requests it.
- [C-1-2] MUST honor the
Window.setSustainedPerformanceMode()
API and other related APIs.
If device implementations include two or more CPU cores, they:
- SHOULD provide at least one exclusive core that can be reserved by the top foreground application.
If device implementations support reserving one exclusive core for the top foreground application, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST report through the
Process.getExclusiveCores()
API method the ID numbers of the exclusive cores that can be reserved by the top foreground application. - [C-2-2] MUST not allow any user space processes except the device drivers used by the application to run on the exclusive cores, but MAY allow some kernel processes to run as necessary.
If device implementations do not support an exclusive core, they:
- [C-3-1] MUST return an empty list through the
Process.getExclusiveCores()
API method.
9. Security Model Compatibility
Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST implement a security model consistent with the Android platform security model as defined in Security and Permissions reference document in the APIs in the Android developer documentation.
[C-0-2] MUST support installation of self-signed applications without requiring any additional permissions/certificates from any third parties/authorities. Specifically, compatible devices MUST support the security mechanisms described in the following subsections.
9.1. Разрешения
Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST support the Android permissions model as defined in the Android developer documentation. Specifically, they MUST enforce each permission defined as described in the SDK documentation; no permissions may be omitted, altered, or ignored.
MAY add additional permissions, provided the new permission ID strings are not in the
android.\*
namespace.[C-0-2] Permissions with a
protectionLevel
ofPROTECTION_FLAG_PRIVILEGED
MUST only be granted to apps preinstalled in the privileged path(s) of the system image and within the subset of the explicitly allowlisted permissions for each app. The AOSP implementation meets this requirement by reading and honoring the allowlisted permissions for each app from the files in theetc/permissions/
path and using thesystem/priv-app
path as the privileged path.
Permissions with a protection level of dangerous are runtime permissions. Applications with targetSdkVersion
> 22 request them at runtime.
Device implementations:
- [C-0-3] MUST show a dedicated interface for the user to decide whether to grant the requested runtime permissions and also provide an interface for the user to manage runtime permissions.
- [C-0-4] MUST have one and only one implementation of both user interfaces.
- [C-0-5] MUST NOT grant any runtime permissions to preinstalled apps unless:
- The user's consent can be obtained before the application uses it.
- The runtime permissions are associated with an intent pattern for which the preinstalled application is set as the default handler.
- [C-0-6] MUST grant the
android.permission.RECOVER_KEYSTORE
permission only to system apps that register a properly secured Recovery Agent. A properly secured Recovery Agent is defined as an on-device software agent that synchronizes with an off-device remote storage, that is equipped with secure hardware with protection equivalent or stronger than what is described in Google Cloud Key Vault Service to prevent brute-force attacks on the lockscreen knowledge factor.
Device implementations:
[C-0-7] MUST adhere to Android location permission properties when an app requests the location or physical activity data through standard Android API or proprietary mechanism. Such data includes but not limited to:
- Device's location (eg latitude and longitude).
- Information that can be used to determine or estimate the device's location (eg SSID, BSSID, Cell ID, Bluetooth scans, or location of the network that the device is connected to).
- User's physical activity or classification of the physical activity.
More specifically, device implementations:
- [C-0-8] MUST obtain user consent to allow an app to access the location or physical activity data.
- [C-0-9] MUST grant a runtime permission ONLY to the app that holds sufficient permission as described on SDK. For example, TelephonyManager#getServiceState requires
android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
).
Permissions can be marked as restricted altering their behavior.
[C-0-10] Permissions marked with the flag
hardRestricted
MUST NOT be granted to an app unless:- An app APK file is in the system partition.
- The user assigns a role that is associated with the
hardRestricted
permissions to an app. - The installer grants the
hardRestricted
to an app. - An app is granted the
hardRestricted
on an earlier Android version.
[C-0-11] Apps holding a
softRestricted
permission MUST get only limited access and MUST NOT gain full access until added to an allowlist as described in the SDK, where full and limited access is defined for eachsoftRestricted
permission (for example,WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
andREAD_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
).
If device implementations include a pre-installed app or wish to allow third-party apps to access the usage statistics, they:
- [SR] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED provide user-accessible mechanism to grant or revoke access to the usage stats in response to the
android.settings.ACTION_USAGE_ACCESS_SETTINGS
intent for apps that declare theandroid.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS
permission.
If device implementations intend to disallow any apps, including pre-installed apps, from accessing the usage statistics, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST still have an activity that handles the
android.settings.ACTION_USAGE_ACCESS_SETTINGS
intent pattern but MUST implement it as a no-op, that is to have an equivalent behavior as when the user is declined for access.
9.2. UID and Process Isolation
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST support the Android application sandbox model, in which each application runs as a unique Unixstyle UID and in a separate process.
- [C-0-2] MUST support running multiple applications as the same Linux user ID, provided that the applications are properly signed and constructed, as defined in the Security and Permissions reference .
9.3. Filesystem Permissions
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST support the Android file access permissions model as defined in the Security and Permissions reference .
9.4. Alternate Execution Environments
Device implementations MUST keep consistency of the Android security and permission model, even if they include runtime environments that execute applications using some other software or technology than the Dalvik Executable Format or native code. Другими словами:
[C-0-1] Alternate runtimes MUST themselves be Android applications, and abide by the standard Android security model, as described elsewhere in section 9 .
[C-0-2] Alternate runtimes MUST NOT be granted access to resources protected by permissions not requested in the runtime's
AndroidManifest.xml
file via the <uses-permission
> mechanism.[C-0-3] Alternate runtimes MUST NOT permit applications to make use of features protected by Android permissions restricted to system applications.
[C-0-4] Alternate runtimes MUST abide by the Android sandbox model and installed applications using an alternate runtime MUST NOT reuse the sandbox of any other app installed on the device, except through the standard Android mechanisms of shared user ID and signing certificate .
[C-0-5] Alternate runtimes MUST NOT launch with, grant, or be granted access to the sandboxes corresponding to other Android applications.
[C-0-6] Alternate runtimes MUST NOT be launched with, be granted, or grant to other applications any privileges of the superuser (root), or of any other user ID.
[C-0-7] When the
.apk
files of alternate runtimes are included in the system image of device implementations, it MUST be signed with a key distinct from the key used to sign other applications included with the device implementations.[C-0-8] When installing applications, alternate runtimes MUST obtain user consent for the Android permissions used by the application.
[C-0-9] When an application needs to make use of a device resource for which there is a corresponding Android permission (such as Camera, GPS, etc.), the alternate runtime MUST inform the user that the application will be able to access that resource.
[C-0-10] When the runtime environment does not record application capabilities in this manner, the runtime environment MUST list all permissions held by the runtime itself when installing any application using that runtime.
Alternate runtimes SHOULD install apps via the
PackageManager
into separate Android sandboxes (Linux user IDs, etc.).Alternate runtimes MAY provide a single Android sandbox shared by all applications using the alternate runtime.
9.5. Multi-User Support
Android includes support for multiple users and provides support for full user isolation.
- Device implementations MAY but SHOULD NOT enable multi-user if they use removable media for primary external storage.
If device implementations include multiple users, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST meet the following requirements related to multi-user support .
- [C-1-2] MUST, for each user, implement a security model consistent with the Android platform security model as defined in Security and Permissions reference document in the APIs.
- [C-1-3] MUST have separate and isolated shared application storage (aka
/sdcard
) directories for each user instance. - [C-1-4] MUST ensure that applications owned by and running on behalf a given user cannot list, read, or write to the files owned by any other user, even if the data of both users are stored on the same volume or filesystem.
- [C-1-5] MUST encrypt the contents of the SD card when multiuser is enabled using a key stored only on non-removable media accessible only to the system if device implementations use removable media for the external storage APIs. As this will make the media unreadable by a host PC, device implementations will be required to switch to MTP or a similar system to provide host PCs with access to the current user's data.
9.6. Premium SMS Warning
Android includes support for warning users of any outgoing premium SMS message . Premium SMS messages are text messages sent to a service registered with a carrier that may incur a charge to the user.
If device implementations declare support for android.hardware.telephony
, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST warn users before sending a SMS message to numbers identified by regular expressions defined in
/data/misc/sms/codes.xml
file in the device. The upstream Android Open Source Project provides an implementation that satisfies this requirement.
9.7. Функции безопасности
Device implementations MUST ensure compliance with security features in both the kernel and platform as described below.
The Android Sandbox includes features that use the Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) mandatory access control (MAC) system, seccomp sandboxing, and other security features in the Linux kernel. Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST maintain compatibility with existing applications, even when SELinux or any other security features are implemented below the Android framework.
- [C-0-2] MUST NOT have a visible user interface when a security violation is detected and successfully blocked by the security feature implemented below the Android framework, but MAY have a visible user interface when an unblocked security violation occurs resulting in a successful exploit.
- [C-0-3] MUST NOT make SELinux or any other security features implemented below the Android framework configurable to the user or app developer.
- [C-0-4] MUST NOT allow an application that can affect another application through an API (such as a Device Administration API) to configure a policy that breaks compatibility.
- [C-0-5] MUST split the media framework into multiple processes so that it is possible to more narrowly grant access for each process as described in the Android Open Source Project site.
- [C-0-6] MUST implement a kernel application sandboxing mechanism which allows filtering of system calls using a configurable policy from multithreaded programs. The upstream Android Open Source Project meets this requirement through enabling the seccomp-BPF with threadgroup synchronization (TSYNC) as described in the Kernel Configuration section of source.android.com .
Kernel integrity and self-protection features are integral to Android security. Device implementations:
- [C-0-7] MUST implement kernel stack buffer overflow protection mechanisms. Examples of such mechanisms are
CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR
andCONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG
. - [C-0-8] MUST implement strict kernel memory protections where executable code is read-only, read-only data is non-executable and non-writable, and writable data is non-executable (eg
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA
orCONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX
). - [C-0-9] MUST implement static and dynamic object size bounds checking of copies between user-space and kernel-space (eg
CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY
) on devices originally shipping with API level 28 or higher. - [C-0-10] MUST NOT execute user-space memory when executing in the kernel mode (eg hardware PXN, or emulated via
CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN
orCONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN
) on devices originally shipping with API level 28 or higher. - [C-0-11] MUST NOT read or write user-space memory in the kernel outside of normal usercopy access APIs (eg hardware PAN, or emulated via
CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN
orCONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN
) on devices originally shipping with API level 28 or higher. - [C-0-12] MUST implement kernel page table isolation if the hardware is vulnerable to CVE-2017-5754 on all devices originally shipping with API level 28 or higher (eg
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION
orCONFIG_UNMAP_KERNEL_AT_EL0
). - [C-0-13] MUST implement branch prediction hardening if the hardware is vulnerable to CVE-2017-5715 on all devices originally shipping with API level 28 or higher (eg
CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR
). - [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to keep kernel data which is written only during initialization marked read-only after initialization (eg
__ro_after_init
). [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to randomize the layout of the kernel code and memory, and to avoid exposures that would compromise the randomization (eg
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE
with bootloader entropy via the/chosen/kaslr-seed Device Tree node
orEFI_RNG_PROTOCOL
).[C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to enable control flow integrity (CFI) in the kernel to provide additional protection against code-reuse attacks (eg
CONFIG_CFI_CLANG
andCONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK
).- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED not to disable Control-Flow Integrity (CFI), Shadow Call Stack (SCS) or Integer Overflow Sanitization (IntSan) on components that have it enabled.
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to enable CFI, SCS, and IntSan for any additional security-sensitive userspace components as explained in CFI and IntSan .
If device implementations use a Linux kernel, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST implement SELinux.
- [C-1-2] MUST set SELinux to global enforcing mode.
- [C-1-3] MUST configure all domains in enforcing mode. No permissive mode domains are allowed, including domains specific to a device/vendor.
- [C-1-4] MUST NOT modify, omit, or replace the neverallow rules present within the system/sepolicy folder provided in the upstream Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and the policy MUST compile with all neverallow rules present, for both AOSP SELinux domains as well as device/vendor specific domains.
- [C-1-5] MUST run third-party applications targeting API level 28 or higher in per-application SELinux sandboxes with per-app SELinux restrictions on each application's private data directory.
- SHOULD retain the default SELinux policy provided in the system/sepolicy folder of the upstream Android Open Source Project and only further add to this policy for their own device-specific configuration.
If device implementations are already launched on an earlier Android version and cannot meet the requirements [C-1-1] and [C-1-5] through a system software update, they MAY be exempted from these requirements.
If device implementations use kernel other than Linux, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST use a mandatory access control system that is equivalent to SELinux.
Android contains multiple defense-in-depth features that are integral to device security.
9.8. Конфиденциальность
9.8.1. История использования
Android stores the history of the user's choices and manages such history by UsageStatsManager .
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST keep a reasonable retention period of such user history.
- [SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to keep the 14 days retention period as configured by default in the AOSP implementation.
Android stores the system events using the StatsLog
identifiers, and manages such history via the StatsManager
and the IncidentManager
System API.
Device implementations:
- [C-0-2] MUST only include the fields marked with
DEST_AUTOMATIC
in the incident report created by the System API classIncidentManager
. - [C-0-3] MUST not use the system event identifiers to log any other event than what is described in the
StatsLog
SDK documents. If additional system events are logged, they MAY use a different atom identifier in the range between 100,000 and 200,000.
9.8.2. Запись
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST NOT preload or distribute software components out-of-box that send the user's private information (eg keystrokes, text displayed on the screen, bugreport) off the device without the user's consent or clear ongoing notifications.
[C-0-2] MUST display and obtain explicit user consent that includes substantially the same message as AOSP whenever screen casting or screen recording is enabled via
MediaProjection
or proprietary APIs. MUST NOT provide users an affordance to disable future display of the user consent.[C-0-3] MUST have an ongoing notification to the user while screen casting or screen recording is enabled. AOSP meets this requirement by showing an ongoing notification icon in the status bar.
If device implementations include functionality in the system that either captures the contents displayed on the screen and/or records the audio stream played on the device other than via the System API ContentCaptureService
, or other proprietary means described in Section 9.8.6 Content Capture , they :
- [C-1-1] MUST have an ongoing notification to the user whenever this functionality is enabled and actively capturing/recording.
If device implementations include a component enabled out-of-box, capable of recording ambient audio and/or record the audio played on the device to infer useful information about user's context, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST NOT store in persistent on-device storage or transmit off the device the recorded raw audio or any format that can be converted back into the original audio or a near facsimile, except with explicit user consent.
9.8.3. Возможности подключения
If device implementations have a USB port with USB peripheral mode support, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST present a user interface asking for the user's consent before allowing access to the contents of the shared storage over the USB port.
9.8.4. Сетевой трафик
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST preinstall the same root certificates for the system-trusted Certificate Authority (CA) store as provided in the upstream Android Open Source Project.
- [C-0-2] MUST ship with an empty user root CA store.
- [C-0-3] MUST display a warning to the user indicating the network traffic may be monitored, when a user root CA is added.
If device traffic is routed through a VPN, device implementations:
- [C-1-1] MUST display a warning to the user indicating either:
- That network traffic may be monitored.
- That network traffic is being routed through the specific VPN application providing the VPN.
If device implementations have a mechanism, enabled out-of-box by default, that routes network data traffic through a proxy server or VPN gateway (for example, preloading a VPN service with android.permission.CONTROL_VPN
granted), they:
- [C-2-1] MUST ask for the user's consent before enabling that mechanism, unless that VPN is enabled by the Device Policy Controller via the
DevicePolicyManager.setAlwaysOnVpnPackage()
, in which case the user does not need to provide a separate consent, but MUST only be notified.
If device implementations implement a user affordance to toggle on the "always-on VPN" function of a 3rd-party VPN app, they:
- [C-3-1] MUST disable this user affordance for apps that do not support always-on VPN service in the
AndroidManifest.xml
file via setting theSERVICE_META_DATA_SUPPORTS_ALWAYS_ON
attribute tofalse
.
9.8.5. Device Identifiers
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST prevent access to the device serial number and, where applicable, IMEI/MEID, SIM serial number, and International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) from an app, unless it meets one of the following requirements:
- is a signed carrier app that is verified by device manufacturers.
- has been granted the
READ_PRIVILEGED_PHONE_STATE
permission. - has carrier privileges as defined in UICC Carrier Privileges .
- is a device owner or profile owner that has been granted the
READ_PHONE_STATE
permission. - (For SIM serial number/ICCID only) has the local regulations requirement that the app detect changes in the subscriber's identity.
9.8.6. Content Capture
Android, through the System API ContentCaptureService
, or by other proprietary means, supports a mechanism for device implementations to capture the following interactions between the applications and the user.
- Text and graphics rendered on-screen, including but not limited to, notifications and assist data via
AssistStructure
API. - Media data, such as audio or video, recorded or played by the device.
- Input events (eg key, mouse, gesture, voice, video, and accessibility).
- Any other events that an application provides to the system via the
Content Capture
API or a similarly capable, proprietary API.
If device implementations capture the data above, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST encrypt all such data when stored in the device. This encryption MAY be carried out using Android File Based Encryption, or any of the ciphers listed as API version 26+ described in Cipher SDK .
- [C-1-2] MUST NOT back up either raw or encrypted data using Android backup methods or any other back up methods.
- [C-1-3] MUST only send all such data and the log of the device using a privacy-preserving mechanism. The privacy-preserving mechanism is defined as “those which allow only analysis in aggregate and prevent matching of logged events or derived outcomes to individual users”, to prevent any per-user data being introspectable (eg, implemented using a differential privacy technology such as
RAPPOR
). - [C-1-4] MUST NOT associate such data with any user identity (such as
Account
) on the device, except with explicit user consent each time the data is associated. - [C-1-5] MUST NOT share such data with other apps, except with explicit user consent every time it is shared.
- [C-1-6] MUST provide user affordance to erase such data that the
ContentCaptureService
or the proprietary means collects if the data is stored in any form on the device.
If device implementations include a service that implements the System API ContentCaptureService
, or any proprietary service that captures the data as described as above, they:
- [C-2-1] MUST NOT allow users to replace the content capture service with a user-installable application or service and MUST only allow the preinstalled service to capture such data.
- [C-2-2] MUST NOT allow any apps other than the preinstalled content capture service mechanism to be able to capture such data.
- [C-2-3] MUST provide user affordance to disable the content capture service.
- [C-2-4] MUST NOT omit user affordance to manage Android permissions that are held by the content capture service and follow Android permissions model as described in Section 9.1. Разрешение .
[C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to keep the content capturing service components separate, for example, not binding the service or sharing process IDs, from other system components except for the following:
- Telephony, Contacts, System UI, and Media
9.8.7. Clipboard Access
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST NOT return a clipped data on the clipboard (eg via the
ClipboardManager
API) unless the app is the default IME or is the app that currently has focus.
9.8.8. Расположение
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST NOT turn on/off device location setting and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth scanning settings without explicit user consent or user initiation.
- [C-0-2] MUST provide the user affordance to access location related information including recent location requests, app level permissions and usage of Wi-Fi/Bluetooth scanning for determining location.
- [C-0-3] MUST ensure that the application using Emergency Location Bypass API [LocationRequest.setLocationSettingsIgnored()] is a user initiated emergency session (eg dial 911 or text to 911).
- [C-0-4] MUST preserve the Emergency Location Bypass API's ability to bypass device location settings without changing the settings.
- [C-0-5] MUST schedule a notification that reminds the user after an app in the background has accessed their location using the [
ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION
] permission.
9.9. Шифрование хранения данных
All devices MUST meet the requirements of section 9.9.1. Devices which launched on an API level earlier than that of this document are exempted from the requirements of sections 9.9.2 and 9.9.3; instead they MUST meet the requirements in section 9.9 of the Android Compatibility Definition document corresponding to the API level on which the device launched.
9.9.1. Прямая загрузка
Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST implement the Direct Boot mode APIs even if they do not support Storage Encryption.
[C-0-2] The
ACTION_LOCKED_BOOT_COMPLETED
andACTION_USER_UNLOCKED
Intents MUST still be broadcast to signal Direct Boot aware applications that Device Encrypted (DE) and Credential Encrypted (CE) storage locations are available for user.
9.9.2. Encryption requirements
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST encrypt the application private data (
/data
partition), as well as the application shared storage partition (/sdcard
partition) if it is a permanent, non-removable part of the device. - [C-0-2] MUST enable the data storage encryption by default at the time the user has completed the out-of-box setup experience.
- [C-0-3] MUST meet the above data storage encryption requirement via implementing File Based Encryption (FBE).
9.9.3. File Based Encryption
Encrypted devices:
- [C-1-1] MUST boot up without challenging the user for credentials and allow Direct Boot aware apps to access to the Device Encrypted (DE) storage after the
ACTION_LOCKED_BOOT_COMPLETED
message is broadcasted. - [C-1-2] MUST only allow access to Credential Encrypted (CE) storage after the user has unlocked the device by supplying their credentials (eg. passcode, pin, pattern or fingerprint) and the
ACTION_USER_UNLOCKED
message is broadcasted. - [C-1-3] MUST NOT offer any method to unlock the CE protected storage without either the user-supplied credentials or a registered escrow key.
- [C-1-4] MUST use Verified Boot and ensure that DE keys are cryptographically bound to the device's hardware root of trust.
- [C-1-5] MUST encrypt file contents using AES-256-XTS or Adiantum. AES-256-XTS refers to the Advanced Encryption Standard with a 256-bit cipher key length, operated in XTS mode; the full length of the key is 512 bits. Adiantum refers to Adiantum-XChaCha12-AES, as specified at https://github.com/google/adiantum.
- [C-1-6] MUST encrypt file names using AES-256-CBC-CTS or Adiantum.
[C-1-12] MUST use AES-256-XTS for file contents and AES-256-CBC-CTS for file names (instead of Adiantum) if the device has Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) instructions. AES instructions are ARMv8 Cryptography Extensions on ARM-based devices, or AES-NI on x86-based devices. If the device does not have AES instructions, the device MAY use Adiantum.
The keys protecting CE and DE storage areas:
[C-1-7] MUST be cryptographically bound to a hardware-backed Keystore.
- [C-1-8] CE keys MUST be bound to a user's lock screen credentials.
- [C-1-9] CE keys MUST be bound to a default passcode when the user has not specified lock screen credentials.
- [C-1-10] MUST be unique and distinct, in other words no user's CE or DE key matches any other user's CE or DE keys.
- [C-1-11] MUST use the mandatorily supported ciphers, key lengths and modes.
[C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to encrypt file system metadata, such as file sizes, ownership, modes, and Extended attributes (xattrs), with a key cryptographically bound to the device's hardware root of trust.
SHOULD make preinstalled essential apps (eg Alarm, Phone, Messenger) Direct Boot aware.
The upstream Android Open Source project provides a preferred implementation of this feature based on the Linux kernel "fscrypt" encryption feature.
9.10. Device Integrity
The following requirements ensure there is transparency to the status of the device integrity. Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST correctly report through the System API method
PersistentDataBlockManager.getFlashLockState()
whether their bootloader state permits flashing of the system image. TheFLASH_LOCK_UNKNOWN
state is reserved for device implementations upgrading from an earlier version of Android where this new system API method did not exist.[C-0-2] MUST support Verified Boot for device integrity.
If device implementations are already launched without supporting Verified Boot on an earlier version of Android and can not add support for this feature with a system software update, they MAY be exempted from the requirement.
Verified Boot is a feature that guarantees the integrity of the device software. If device implementations support the feature, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST declare the platform feature flag
android.software.verified_boot
. - [C-1-2] MUST perform verification on every boot sequence.
- [C-1-3] MUST start verification from an immutable hardware key that is the root of trust and go all the way up to the system partition.
- [C-1-4] MUST implement each stage of verification to check the integrity and authenticity of all the bytes in the next stage before executing the code in the next stage.
- [C-1-5] MUST use verification algorithms as strong as current recommendations from NIST for hashing algorithms (SHA-256) and public key sizes (RSA-2048).
- [C-1-6] MUST NOT allow boot to complete when system verification fails, unless the user consents to attempt booting anyway, in which case the data from any non-verified storage blocks MUST not be used.
- [C-1-7] MUST NOT allow verified partitions on the device to be modified unless the user has explicitly unlocked the bootloader.
- [C-SR] If there are multiple discrete chips in the device (eg radio, specialized image processor), the boot process of each of those chips is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to verify every stage upon booting.
- [C-1-8] MUST use tamper-evident storage: for storing whether the bootloader is unlocked. Tamper-evident storage means that the bootloader can detect if the storage has been tampered with from inside Android.
- [C-1-9] MUST prompt the user, while using the device, and require physical confirmation before allowing a transition from bootloader locked mode to bootloader unlocked mode.
- [C-1-10] MUST implement rollback protection for partitions used by Android (eg boot, system partitions) and use tamper-evident storage for storing the metadata used for determining the minimum allowable OS version.
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to verify all privileged app APK files with a chain of trust rooted in partitions protected by Verified Boot.
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to verify any executable artifacts loaded by a privileged app from outside its APK file (such as dynamically loaded code or compiled code) before executing them or STRONGLY RECOMMENDED not to execute them at all.
- SHOULD implement rollback protection for any component with persistent firmware (eg modem, camera) and SHOULD use tamper-evident storage for storing the metadata used for determining the minimum allowable version.
If device implementations are already launched without supporting C-1-8 through C-1-10 on an earlier version of Android and can not add support for these requirements with a system software update, they MAY be exempted from the requirements.
The upstream Android Open Source Project provides a preferred implementation of this feature in the external/avb/
repository, which can be integrated into the bootloader used for loading Android.
Device implementations:
- [CR] Are RECOMMENDED to support the Android Protected Confirmation API .
If device implementations support the Android Protected Confirmation API they:
[C-3-1] MUST report
true
for theConfirmationPrompt.isSupported()
API.[C-3-2] MUST ensure that code running in the Android OS including its kernel, malicious or otherwise, cannot generate a positive response without user interaction.
[C-3-3] MUST ensure that the user has been able to review and approve the prompted message even in the event that the Android OS, including its kernel, is compromised.
9.11. Keys and Credentials
The Android Keystore System allows app developers to store cryptographic keys in a container and use them in cryptographic operations through the KeyChain API or the Keystore API . Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST allow at least 8,192 keys to be imported or generated.
- [C-0-2] The lock screen authentication MUST rate-limit attempts and MUST have an exponential backoff algorithm. Beyond 150 failed attempts, the delay MUST be at least 24 hours per attempt.
- SHOULD not limit the number of keys that can be generated
When the device implementation supports a secure lock screen, it:
- [C-1-1] MUST back up the keystore implementation with an isolated execution environment.
- [C-1-2] MUST have implementations of RSA, AES, ECDSA and HMAC cryptographic algorithms and MD5, SHA1, and SHA-2 family hash functions to properly support the Android Keystore system's supported algorithms in an area that is securely isolated from the code running on the kernel and above. Secure isolation MUST block all potential mechanisms by which kernel or userspace code might access the internal state of the isolated environment, including DMA. The upstream Android Open Source Project (AOSP) meets this requirement by using the Trusty implementation, but another ARM TrustZone-based solution or a third-party reviewed secure implementation of a proper hypervisor-based isolation are alternative options.
- [C-1-3] MUST perform the lock screen authentication in the isolated execution environment and only when successful, allow the authentication-bound keys to be used. Lock screen credentials MUST be stored in a way that allows only the isolated execution environment to perform lock screen authentication. The upstream Android Open Source Project provides the Gatekeeper Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) and Trusty, which can be used to satisfy this requirement.
- [C-1-4] MUST support key attestation where the attestation signing key is protected by secure hardware and signing is performed in secure hardware. The attestation signing keys MUST be shared across large enough number of devices to prevent the keys from being used as device identifiers. One way of meeting this requirement is to share the same attestation key unless at least 100,000 units of a given SKU are produced. If more than 100,000 units of an SKU are produced, a different key MAY be used for each 100,000 units.
Note that if a device implementation is already launched on an earlier Android version, such a device is exempted from the requirement to have a keystore backed by an isolated execution environment and support the key attestation, unless it declares the android.hardware.fingerprint
feature which requires a keystore backed by an isolated execution environment.
- [C-1-5] MUST allow the user to choose the Sleep timeout for transition from the unlocked to the locked state, with a minimum allowable timeout up to 15 seconds.
9.11.1. Secure Lock Screen and Authentication
The AOSP implementation follows a tiered authentication model where a knowledge-factory based primary authentication can be backed by either a secondary strong biometric, or by weaker tertiary modalities.
Device implementations:
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to set only one of the following as the primary authentication method:
- A numeric PIN
- An alphanumeric password
- A swipe pattern on a grid of exactly 3x3 dots
Note that the above authentication methods are referred as the recommended primary authentication methods in this document.
If device implementations add or modify the recommended primary authentication methods and use a new authentication method as a secure way to lock the screen, the new authentication method:
- [C-2-1] MUST be the user authentication method as described in Requiring User Authentication For Key Use .
- [C-2-2] MUST unlock all keys for a third-party developer app to use when the user unlocks the secure lock screen. For example, all keys MUST be available for a third-party developer app through relevant APIs, such as
createConfirmDeviceCredentialIntent
andsetUserAuthenticationRequired
.
If device implementations add or modify the authentication methods to unlock the lock screen if based on a known secret and use a new authentication method to be treated as a secure way to lock the screen:
- [C-3-1] The entropy of the shortest allowed length of inputs MUST be greater than 10 bits.
- [C-3-2] The maximum entropy of all possible inputs MUST be greater than 18 bits.
- [C-3-3] The new authentication method MUST NOT replace any of the recommended primary authentication methods (ie PIN, pattern, password) implemented and provided in AOSP.
- [C-3-4] The new authentication method MUST be disabled when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the password quality policy via the
DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality()
method with a more restrictive quality constant thanPASSWORD_QUALITY_SOMETHING
. - [C-3-5] New authentication methods MUST either fall back to the recommended primary authentication methods (ie PIN, pattern, password) once every 72 hours or less OR clearly disclose to the user that some data will not be backed up in order to preserve the privacy of their data.
If device implementations add or modify the recommended primary authentication methods to unlock the lock screen and use a new authentication method that is based on biometrics to be treated as a secure way to lock the screen, the new method:
- [C-4-1] MUST meet all requirements described in section 7.3.10 for Convenience .
- [C-4-2] MUST have a fall-back mechanism to use one of the recommended primary authentication methods which is based on a known secret.
- [C-4-3] MUST be disabled and only allow the recommended primary authentication to unlock the screen when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the keyguard feature policy by calling the method
DevicePolicyManager.setKeyguardDisabledFeatures()
, with any of the associated biometric flags (ieKEYGUARD_DISABLE_BIOMETRICS
,KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FINGERPRINT
,KEYGUARD_DISABLE_FACE
, orKEYGUARD_DISABLE_IRIS
).
If the biometric authentication methods do not meet the requirements for Strong as described in section 7.3.10 :
- [C-5-1] The methods MUST be disabled if the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the password quality policy via the
DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality()
method with a more restrictive quality constant thanPASSWORD_QUALITY_BIOMETRIC_WEAK
. - [C-5-2] The user MUST be challenged for the recommended primary authentication (eg: PIN, pattern, password) after any 4-hour idle timeout period. The idle timeout period is reset after any successful confirmation of the device credentials.
- [C-5-3] The methods MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen, and MUST meet the requirements that start with C-8 in this section below.
If device implementations add or modify the authentication methods to unlock the lock screen and a new authentication method is based on a physical token or the location:
- [C-6-1] They MUST have a fall-back mechanism to use one of the recommended primary authentication methods which is based on a known secret and meet the requirements to be treated as a secure lock screen.
- [C-6-2] The new method MUST be disabled and only allow one of the recommended primary authentication methods to unlock the screen when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the policy with either the
DevicePolicyManager.setKeyguardDisabledFeatures(KEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS)
method or theDevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality()
method with a more restrictive quality constant thanPASSWORD_QUALITY_UNSPECIFIED
. - [C-6-3] The user MUST be challenged for one of the recommended primary authentication methods (egPIN, pattern, password) at least once every 4 hours or less.
- [C-6-4] The new method MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen and MUST follow the constraints listed in C-8 below.
If device implementations have a secure lock screen and include one or more trust agent, which implements the TrustAgentService
System API, they:
- [C-7-1] MUST have clear indication in the settings menu and on the lock screen when device lock is deferred or can be kept unlocked by trust agent(s). For example, AOSP meets this requirement by showing a text description for the "Automatically lock setting" and "Power button instantly locks" in the settings menu and a distinguishable icon on the lock screen.
- [C-7-2] MUST respect and fully implement all trust agent APIs in the
DevicePolicyManager
class, such as theKEYGUARD_DISABLE_TRUST_AGENTS
constant. - [C-7-3] MUST NOT fully implement the
TrustAgentService.addEscrowToken()
function on a device that is used as a primary personal device (eg handheld) but MAY fully implement the function on device implementations that are typically shared (eg Android Television or Automotive device). - [C-7-4] MUST encrypt all stored tokens added by
TrustAgentService.addEscrowToken()
. - [C-7-5] MUST NOT store the encryption key or escrow token on the same device where the key is used. For example, it is allowed for a key stored on a phone to unlock a user account on a TV.
- [C-7-6] MUST inform the user about the security implications before enabling the escrow token to decrypt the data storage.
- [C-7-7] MUST have a fall-back mechanism to use one of the recommended primary authentication methods.
- [C-7-8] The user MUST be challenged for one of the recommended primary authentication (eg: PIN, pattern, password) methods at least once every 72 hours or less unless the safety of the user (eg driver distraction) is of беспокойство.
- [C-7-9] The user MUST be challenged for one of the recommended primary authentication (eg: PIN, pattern, password) methods after any 4-hour idle timeout period unless the safety of the user (eg driver distraction) is of concern.. The idle timeout period is reset after any successful confirmation of the device credentials.
- [C-7-10] MUST NOT be treated as a secure lock screen and MUST follow the constraints listed in C-8 below.
- [C-7-11] MUST NOT allow TrustAgents on primary personal devices (eg: handheld) to unlock the device, and can only use them to keep an already unlocked device in the unlocked state for up to a maximum of 4 hours. The default implementation of TrustManagerService in AOSP meets this requirement.
- [C-7-12] MUST use a cryptographically secure (eg UKEY2) communication channel to pass the escrow token from the storage device to the target device.
If device implementations add or modify the authentication methods to unlock the lock screen that is not a secure lock screen as described above, and use a new authentication method to unlock the keyguard:
- [C-8-1] The new method MUST be disabled when the Device Policy Controller (DPC) application has set the password quality policy via the
DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordQuality()
method with a more restrictive quality constant thanPASSWORD_QUALITY_UNSPECIFIED
. - [C-8-2] They MUST NOT reset the password expiration timers set by
DevicePolicyManager.setPasswordExpirationTimeout()
. - [C-8-3] They MUST NOT expose an API for use by third-party apps to change the lock state.
9.11.2. Сейф
The Android Keystore System allows app developers to store cryptographic keys in a dedicated secure processor as well as the isolated execution environment described above. Such a dedicated secure processor is called "StrongBox". Requirements C-1-3 through C-1-11 below define the requirements a device MUST meet to qualify as a StrongBox.
Device implementations that have a dedicated secure processor:
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support StrongBox. StrongBox will likely become a requirement in a future release.
If device implementations support StrongBox, they:
[C-1-1] MUST declare FEATURE_STRONGBOX_KEYSTORE .
[C-1-2] MUST provide dedicated secure hardware that is used to back keystore and secure user authentication. The dedicated secure hardware may be used for other purposes as well.
[C-1-3] MUST have a discrete CPU that shares no cache, DRAM, coprocessors or other core resources with the application processor (AP).
[C-1-4] MUST ensure that any peripherals shared with the AP cannot alter StrongBox processing in any way, or obtain any information from the StrongBox. The AP MAY disable or block access to StrongBox.
[C-1-5] MUST have an internal clock with reasonable accuracy (+-10%) that is immune to manipulation by the AP.
[C-1-6] MUST have a true random number generator that produces uniformly-distributed and unpredictable output.
[C-1-7] MUST have tamper resistance, including resistance against physical penetration, and glitching.
[C-1-8] MUST have side-channel resistance, including resistance against leaking information via power, timing, electromagnetic radiation, and thermal radiation side channels.
[C-1-9] MUST have secure storage which ensures confidentiality, integrity, authenticity, consistency, and freshness of the contents. The storage MUST NOT be able to be read or altered, except as permitted by the StrongBox APIs.
To validate compliance with [C-1-3] through [C-1-9], device implementations:
- [C-1-10] MUST include the hardware that is certified against the Secure IC Protection Profile BSI-CC-PP-0084-2014 or evaluated by a nationally accredited testing laboratory incorporating High attack potential vulnerability assessment according to the Common Criteria Application of Attack Potential to Smartcards .
- [C-1-11] MUST include the firmware that is evaluated by a nationally accredited testing laboratory incorporating High attack potential vulnerability assessment according to the Common Criteria Application of Attack Potential to Smartcards .
- [C-SR] Are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to include the hardware that is evaluated using a Security Target, Evaluation Assurance Level (EAL) 5, augmented by AVA_VAN.5. EAL 5 certification will likely become a requirement in a future release.
[C-SR] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide insider attack resistance (IAR), which means that an insider with access to firmware signing keys cannot produce firmware that causes the StrongBox to leak secrets, to bypass functional security requirements or otherwise enable access to sensitive user data. The recommended way to implement IAR is to allow firmware updates only when the primary user password is provided via the IAuthSecret HAL.
9.12. Удаление данных
All device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST provide users a mechanism to perform a "Factory Data Reset".
- [C-0-2] MUST delete all data on the userdata filesystem.
- [C-0-3] MUST delete the data in such a way that will satisfy relevant industry standards such as NIST SP800-88.
- [C-0-4] MUST trigger the above "Factory Data Reset" process when the
DevicePolicyManager.wipeData()
API is called by the primary user's Device Policy Controller app. - MAY provide a fast data wipe option that conducts only a logical data erase.
9.13. Safe Boot Mode
Android provides Safe Boot Mode, which allows users to boot up into a mode where only preinstalled system apps are allowed to run and all third-party apps are disabled. This mode, known as "Safe Boot Mode", provides the user the capability to uninstall potentially harmful third-party apps.
Device implementations are:
- [SR] STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to implement Safe Boot Mode.
If device implementations implement Safe Boot Mode, they:
[C-1-1] MUST provide the user an option to enter Safe Boot Mode in such a way that is uninterruptible from third-party apps installed on the device, except when the third-party app is a Device Policy Controller and has set the
UserManager.DISALLOW_SAFE_BOOT
flag as true.[C-1-2] MUST provide the user the capability to uninstall any third-party apps within Safe Mode.
SHOULD provide the user an option to enter Safe Boot Mode from the boot menu using a workflow that is different from that of a normal boot.
9.14. Automotive Vehicle System Isolation
Android Automotive devices are expected to exchange data with critical vehicle subsystems by using the vehicle HAL to send and receive messages over vehicle networks such as CAN bus.
The data exchange can be secured by implementing security features below the Android framework layers to prevent malicious or unintentional interaction with these subsystems.
9.15. Планы подписки
"Subscription plans" refer to the billing relationship plan details provided by a mobile carrier through SubscriptionManager.setSubscriptionPlans()
.
All device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST return subscription plans only to the mobile carrier app that has originally provided them.
- [C-0-2] MUST NOT remotely back up or upload subscription plans.
- [C-0-3] MUST only allow overrides, such as
SubscriptionManager.setSubscriptionOverrideCongested()
, from the mobile carrier app currently providing valid subscription plans.
10. Software Compatibility Testing
Device implementations MUST pass all tests described in this section. However, note that no software test package is fully comprehensive. For this reason, device implementers are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to make the minimum number of changes as possible to the reference and preferred implementation of Android available from the Android Open Source Project. This will minimize the risk of introducing bugs that create incompatibilities requiring rework and potential device updates.
10.1. Compatibility Test Suite
Device implementations:
[C-0-1] MUST pass the Android Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) available from the Android Open Source Project, using the final shipping software on the device.
[C-0-2] MUST ensure compatibility in cases of ambiguity in CTS and for any reimplementations of parts of the reference source code.
The CTS is designed to be run on an actual device. Like any software, the CTS may itself contain bugs. The CTS will be versioned independently of this Compatibility Definition, and multiple revisions of the CTS may be released for Android 10.
Device implementations:
[C-0-3] MUST pass the latest CTS version available at the time the device software is completed.
SHOULD use the reference implementation in the Android Open Source tree as much as possible.
10.2. CTS-верификатор
The CTS Verifier is included with the Compatibility Test Suite, and is intended to be run by a human operator to test functionality that cannot be tested by an automated system, such as correct functioning of a camera and sensors.
Device implementations:
- [C-0-1] MUST correctly execute all applicable cases in the CTS verifier.
The CTS Verifier has tests for many kinds of hardware, including some hardware that is optional.
Device implementations:
- [C-0-2] MUST pass all tests for hardware that they possess; for instance, if a device possesses an accelerometer, it MUST correctly execute the Accelerometer test case in the CTS Verifier.
Test cases for features noted as optional by this Compatibility Definition Document MAY be skipped or omitted.
- [C-0-2] Every device and every build MUST correctly run the CTS Verifier, as noted above. However, since many builds are very similar, device implementers are not expected to explicitly run the CTS Verifier on builds that differ only in trivial ways. Specifically, device implementations that differ from an implementation that has passed the CTS Verifier only by the set of included locales, branding, etc. MAY omit the CTS Verifier test.
11. Updatable Software
[C-0-1] Device implementations MUST include a mechanism to replace the entirety of the system software. The mechanism need not perform “live” upgrades—that is, a device restart MAY be required. Any method can be used, provided that it can replace the entirety of the software preinstalled on the device. For instance, any of the following approaches will satisfy this requirement:
- “Over-the-air (OTA)” downloads with offline update via reboot.
- “Tethered” updates over USB from a host PC.
- “Offline” updates via a reboot and update from a file on removable storage.
[C-0-2] The update mechanism used MUST support updates without wiping user data. That is, the update mechanism MUST preserve application private data and application shared data. Note that the upstream Android software includes an update mechanism that satisfies this requirement.
[C-0-3] The entire update MUST be signed and the on-device update mechanism MUST verify the update and signature against a public key stored on device.
- [C-SR] The signing mechanism is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to hash the update with SHA-256 and validate the hash against the public key using ECDSA NIST P-256.
If the device implementations includes support for an unmetered data connection such as 802.11 or Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network) profile, then, they:
- [C-1-1] MUST support OTA downloads with offline update via reboot.
For device implementations that are launching with Android 6.0 and later, the update mechanism SHOULD support verifying that the system image is binary identical to expected result following an OTA. The block-based OTA implementation in the upstream Android Open Source Project, added since Android 5.1, satisfies this requirement.
Also, device implementations SHOULD support A/B system updates . The AOSP implements this feature using the boot control HAL.
If an error is found in a device implementation after it has been released but within its reasonable product lifetime that is determined in consultation with the Android Compatibility Team to affect the compatibility of third-party applications, then:
- [C-2-1] The device implementer MUST correct the error via a software update available that can be applied per the mechanism just described.
Android includes features that allow the Device Owner app (if present) to control the installation of system updates. If the system update subsystem for devices report android.software.device_admin then, they:
- [C-3-1] MUST implement the behavior described in the SystemUpdatePolicy class.
