Android Question Device admin deprecation Kiosk Device Owner

Philip Prins · Mar 12, 2020

Hello ,

I have a new device where the Kiosk mode GetManager.RunMethod("setLockTaskPackages" does not work anymore:

Error:Caused by: java.lang.SecurityException: Admin ComponentInfo{app.example/anywheresoftware.b4a.objects.AdminReceiver2} does not own the profile

How can i become the profile owner?

Did you setup everyting correctly?

Means: Did you enabled Admin for your App using ADB?

Hello,

Yes on other devices it works.
When sending the command using ADB I get a positive response.
Further more i am not able to stop or remove the application, so party it works on this device with Android 9.

Only when trying to enable kiosk I get the device owner error.

1) You control the device via G-Suite and set up a profile through it
2) You use an enterprise mobility management (EMM) provider
