isUserForeground

public boolean isUserForeground ()

Checks if the context user is running in the foreground.

isUserRunning

public boolean isUserRunning (UserHandle user)

Return whether the given user is actively running. This means that the user is in the "started" state, not "stopped" -- it is currently allowed to run code through scheduled alarms, receiving broadcasts, etc. A started user may be either the current foreground user or a background user; the result here does not distinguish between the two.

Note prior to Android Nougat MR1 (SDK version <= 24; Build.VERSION_CODES.N, this API required a system permission in order to check other profile's status. Since Android Nougat MR1 (SDK version >= 25; Build.VERSION_CODES.N_MR1), the restriction has been relaxed, and now it'll accept any UserHandle within the same profile group as the caller.

isUserRunningOrStopping

public boolean isUserRunningOrStopping (UserHandle user)

Return whether the given user is actively running or stopping. This is like isUserRunning(android.os.UserHandle), but will also return true if the user had been running but is in the process of being stopped (but is not yet fully stopped, and still running some code).

Note prior to Android Nougat MR1 (SDK version <= 24; Build.VERSION_CODES.N, this API required a system permission in order to check other profile's status. Since Android Nougat MR1 (SDK version >= 25; Build.VERSION_CODES.N_MR1), the restriction has been relaxed, and now it'll accept any UserHandle within the same profile group as the caller.

requestQuietModeEnabled

public boolean requestQuietModeEnabled (boolean enableQuietMode, 
                UserHandle userHandle)

Enables or disables quiet mode for a profile. If quiet mode is enabled, apps in the profile don't run, generate notifications, or consume data or battery.

If a user's credential is needed to turn off quiet mode, a confirm credential screen will be shown to the user.

The change may not happen instantly, however apps can listen for Intent.ACTION_MANAGED_PROFILE_AVAILABLE and Intent.ACTION_MANAGED_PROFILE_UNAVAILABLE broadcasts in order to be notified of the change of the quiet mode for managed profile. Apps can listen to generic broadcasts Intent.ACTION_PROFILE_AVAILABLE and Intent.ACTION_PROFILE_UNAVAILABLE to be notified of the change in quiet mode for any profiles. Apps can also check the current state of quiet mode by calling isQuietModeEnabled(android.os.UserHandle).

The caller must either be the foreground default launcher or have one of these permissions: MANAGE_USERS or MODIFY_QUIET_MODE.

setRestrictionsChallenge

public boolean setRestrictionsChallenge (String newPin)
