ServiceInfo

open class ServiceInfo : ComponentInfo, Parcelable

static val FLAG_ALLOW_SHARED_ISOLATED_PROCESS: Int

Value: 16

FLAG_EXTERNAL_SERVICE

static val FLAG_EXTERNAL_SERVICE: Int

Bit in flags: If set, the service can be bound and run in the calling application's package, rather than the package in which it is declared. Set from android.R.attr#externalService attribute.

Value: 4

FLAG_ISOLATED_PROCESS

static val FLAG_ISOLATED_PROCESS: Int

Bit in flags: If set, the service will run in its own isolated process. Set from the android.R.attr#isolatedProcess attribute.

Value: 2

FLAG_SINGLE_USER

static val FLAG_SINGLE_USER: Int

Bit in flags: If set, a single instance of the service will run for all users on the device. Set from the android.R.attr#singleUser attribute.

Value: 1073741824

FLAG_STOP_WITH_TASK

static val FLAG_STOP_WITH_TASK: Int

Bit in flags: If set, the service will automatically be stopped by the system if the user removes a task that is rooted in one of the application's activities. Set from the android.R.attr#stopWithTask attribute.

Value: 1

FLAG_USE_APP_ZYGOTE

static val FLAG_USE_APP_ZYGOTE: Int

Bit in flags: If set, the service (which must be isolated) will be spawned from an Application Zygote, instead of the regular Zygote. The Application Zygote will pre-initialize the application's class loader, and call a static callback into the application to allow it to perform application-specific preloads (such as loading a shared library). Therefore, spawning from the Application Zygote will typically reduce the service launch time and reduce its memory usage. The downside of using this flag is that you will have an additional process (the app zygote itself) that is taking up memory. Whether actual memory usage is improved therefore strongly depends on the number of isolated services that an application starts, and how much memory those services save by preloading. Therefore, it is recommended to measure memory usage under typical workloads to determine whether it makes sense to use this flag.

Value: 8

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_CAMERA

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_CAMERA: Int

Constant corresponding to camera in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. Use the camera device or record video. For apps with targetSdkVersion android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#R and above, a foreground service will not be able to access the camera if this type is not specified in the manifest and in android.app.Service#startForeground(int, android.app.Notification, int).

Starting foreground service with this type from apps targeting API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE and later, will require permission android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_CAMERA and android.Manifest.permission#CAMERA.

Value: 64

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_CONNECTED_DEVICE

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_CONNECTED_DEVICE: Int

Constant corresponding to connectedDevice in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. Auto, bluetooth, TV or other devices connection, monitoring and interaction.

Starting foreground service with this type from apps targeting API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE and later, will require permission android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_CONNECTED_DEVICE and one of the following permissions: android.Manifest.permission#BLUETOOTH_ADVERTISE, android.Manifest.permission#BLUETOOTH_CONNECT, android.Manifest.permission#BLUETOOTH_SCAN, android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE, android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_WIFI_STATE, android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_WIFI_MULTICAST_STATE, android.Manifest.permission#NFC, android.Manifest.permission#TRANSMIT_IR, android.Manifest.permission#UWB_RANGING, or has been granted the access to one of the attached USB devices/accessories.

Value: 16

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_DATA_SYNC

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_DATA_SYNC: Int

Constant corresponding to dataSync in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. Data(photo, file, account) upload/download, backup/restore, import/export, fetch, transfer over network between device and cloud.

This type has time limit of 6 hours starting from Android version android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#VANILLA_ICE_CREAM. A foreground service of this type must be stopped within the timeout by android.app.Service#stopSelf(), android.content.Context#stopService(android.content.Intent) or their overloads). android.app.Service#stopForeground(int) will also work, which will demote the service to a "background" service, which will soon be stopped by the system.

If the service isn't stopped within the timeout, android.app.Service#onTimeout(int, int) will be called.

Also note, even though android.content.pm.ServiceInfo#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_DATA_SYNC can be used on Android versions prior to android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#VANILLA_ICE_CREAM, since android.app.Service#onTimeout(int, int) did not exist on such versions, it will never be called. Because of this, developers must make sure to stop the foreground service even if android.app.Service#onTimeout(int, int) is not called on such versions.

Value: 1

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_HEALTH

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_HEALTH: Int

Constant corresponding to health in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. Health, wellness and fitness.

The caller app is required to have the permissions android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_HEALTH and one of the following permissions: android.Manifest.permission#ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION, android.Manifest.permission#BODY_SENSORS, android.Manifest.permission#HIGH_SAMPLING_RATE_SENSORS.
Requires android.Manifest.permission#ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION or android.Manifest.permission#BODY_SENSORS or android.Manifest.permission#HIGH_SAMPLING_RATE_SENSORS

Value: 256

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_LOCATION

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_LOCATION: Int

Constant corresponding to location in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. GPS, map, navigation location update.

Starting foreground service with this type from apps targeting API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE and later, will require permission android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION and one of the following permissions: android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION.

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_MEDIA_PLAYBACK: Int

Constant corresponding to mediaPlayback in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. Music, video, news or other media playback.

Starting foreground service with this type from apps targeting API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE and later, will require permission android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PLAYBACK.

Value: 2

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_MEDIA_PROCESSING: Int

Value: 8192

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_MEDIA_PROJECTION

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_MEDIA_PROJECTION: Int

Constant corresponding to mediaProjection in the foregroundServiceType attribute.

To capture through android.media.projection.MediaProjection, an app must start a foreground service with the type corresponding to this constant. This type should only be used for android.media.projection.MediaProjection. Capturing screen contents via createVirtualDisplay conveniently allows recording, presenting screen contents into a meeting, taking screenshots, or several other scenarios.

Starting foreground service with this type from apps targeting API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE and later, will require permission android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PROJECTION, and the user must have allowed the screen capture request from this app.

Value: 32

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_MICROPHONE

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_MICROPHONE: Int

Constant corresponding to microphone in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. Use the microphone device or record audio. For apps with targetSdkVersion android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#R and above, a foreground service will not be able to access the microphone if this type is not specified in the manifest and in android.app.Service#startForeground(int, android.app.Notification, int).

Starting foreground service with this type from apps targeting API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE and later, will require permission android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MICROPHONE and one of the following permissions: android.Manifest.permission#CAPTURE_AUDIO_OUTPUT, android.Manifest.permission#RECORD_AUDIO.

Value: 128

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_NONE: Int

Deprecated: Do not use.

The default foreground service type if not been set in manifest file.

Apps targeting API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE and later should NOT use this type, calling android.app.Service#startForeground(int, android.app.Notification, int) with this type will get a android.app.InvalidForegroundServiceTypeException.

Value: 0

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_PHONE_CALL

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_PHONE_CALL: Int

Value: 4

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_REMOTE_MESSAGING

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_REMOTE_MESSAGING: Int

Constant corresponding to remoteMessaging in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. Messaging use cases which host local server to relay messages across devices.
Requires android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_REMOTE_MESSAGING

Value: 512

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SHORT_SERVICE

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SHORT_SERVICE: Int

A foreground service type for "short-lived" services, which corresponds to shortService in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute in the manifest.

Unlike other foreground service types, this type is not associated with a specific use case, and it will not require any special permissions (besides android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE). However, this type has the following restrictions.

• The type has a 3 minute timeout. A foreground service of this type must be stopped within the timeout by android.app.Service#stopSelf(), android.content.Context#stopService(android.content.Intent) or their overloads). android.app.Service#stopForeground(int) will also work, which will demote the service to a "background" service, which will soon be stopped by the system.

  If the service isn't stopped within the timeout, android.app.Service#onTimeout(int) will be called. Note, even when the system calls this callback, it will not stop the service automatically. You still need to stop the service using one of the aforementioned ways even when you get this callback.

  If the service is still not stopped after the callback, the app will be declared an ANR, after a short grace period of several seconds.

• A foreground service of this type cannot be made "sticky" (see android.app.Service#START_STICKY). That is, if an app is killed due to a crash or out-of memory while it's running a short foregorund-service, the system will not restart the service.
• Other foreground services cannot be started from short foreground services. Unlike other foreground service types, when an app is running in the background while only having a "short" foreground service, it's not allowed to start other foreground services, due to the restriction describe here: android.content.pm.ServiceInfo#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SHORT_SERVICE. with other types as well. However, android.content.pm.ServiceInfo#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SHORT_SERVICE is for situations where you have no other valid foreground services to use and the timeout is long enough for the task, and if you can use other types, there's no point using this type. For this reason, if android.content.pm.ServiceInfo#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SHORT_SERVICE is combined with other foreground service types, the system will simply ignore it, and as a result, none of the above restrictions will apply (e.g. there'll be no timeout).

Also note, even though android.content.pm.ServiceInfo#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SHORT_SERVICE was added on Android version android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, it can be also used on on prior android versions (just like other new foreground service types can be used). However, because android.app.Service#onTimeout(int) did not exist on prior versions, it will never called on such versions. Because of this, developers must make sure to stop the foreground service even if android.app.Service#onTimeout(int) is not called on such versions.

Value: 2048

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SPECIAL_USE

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SPECIAL_USE: Int

Constant corresponding to specialUse in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. Use cases that can't be categorized into any other foreground service types, but also can't use android.app.job.JobInfo.Builder APIs.

The use of this foreground service type may be restricted. Additionally, apps must declare a service-level <property> in AndroidManifest.xml as a hint of what the exact use case here is. Here is an example:

<uses-permission
       android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_SPECIAL_USE"
   />
   <service
       android:name=".MySpecialForegroundService"
       android:foregroundServiceType="specialUse">
       <property
           android:name="android.app.PROPERTY_SPECIAL_USE_FGS_SUBTYPE"
           android:value="foo"
       />
  </service>
  

In a future release of Android, if the above foreground service type foo is supported by the platform, to offer the backward compatibility, the app could specify the android:maxSdkVersion attribute in the <uses-permission> section, and also add the foreground service type foo into the android:foregroundServiceType, therefore the same app could be installed in both platforms.

<uses-permission
       android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_SPECIAL_USE"
       android:maxSdkVersion="last_sdk_version_without_type_foo"
   />
   <service
       android:name=".MySpecialForegroundService"
       android:foregroundServiceType="specialUse|foo">
       <property
           android:name="android.app.PROPERTY_SPECIAL_USE_FGS_SUBTYPE"
           android:value="foo"
       />
  </service>
  

Requires android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_SPECIAL_USE

Value: 1073741824

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SYSTEM_EXEMPTED

static val FOREGROUND_SERVICE_TYPE_SYSTEM_EXEMPTED: Int

Constant corresponding to systemExempted in the android.R.attr#foregroundServiceType attribute. The system exempted foreground service use cases.

Note, apps are allowed to use this type only in the following cases:

• App has a UID < android.os.Process#FIRST_APPLICATION_UID
• App is on Doze allowlist
• Device is running in Demo Mode
• Device owner app
• Profile owner apps
• Persistent apps
• Carrier privileged apps
• Apps that have the android.app.role.RoleManager#ROLE_EMERGENCY role
• Headless system apps
• Device admin apps
• Active VPN apps
• Apps holding android.Manifest.permission#SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM or android.Manifest.permission#USE_EXACT_ALARM permission.

Requires android.Manifest.permission#FOREGROUND_SERVICE_SYSTEM_EXEMPTED

Value: 1024
