+<a name="section-1"></a><h2 id="section-1">1. Introduction</h2>
+<p>This document enumerates the requirements that must be met in order for
+devices to be compatible with Android 4.4.</p>
+<p>The use of "must", "must not", "required", "shall", "shall not", "should",
+"should not", "recommended", "may" and "optional" is per the IETF standard
+defined in RFC2119 [<a href="#resources01">Resources, 1</a>].</p>
+<p>As used in this document, a "device implementer" or "implementer" is a
+person or organization developing a hardware/software solution running Android
+4.4. A "device implementation" or "implementation" is the hardware/software
+solution so developed.</p>
+<p>To be considered compatible with Android 4.4, device implementations
+MUST meet the requirements presented in this Compatibility Definition,
+including any documents incorporated via reference.</p>
+<p>Where this definition or the software tests described in <a
+href="#section-10">Section 10</a> is silent, ambiguous, or incomplete, it is
+the responsibility of the device implementer to ensure compatibility with
+existing implementations.</p>
+<p>For this reason, the Android Open Source Project [<a
+href="#resources03">Resources, 3</a>] is both the reference and preferred
+implementation of Android. Device implementers are strongly encouraged to base
+their implementations to the greatest extent possible on the "upstream" source
+code available from the Android Open Source Project. While some components can
+hypothetically be replaced with alternate implementations this practice is
+strongly discouraged, as passing the software tests will become substantially
+more difficult. It is the implementer's responsibility to ensure full
+behavioral compatibility with the standard Android implementation, including
+and beyond the Compatibility Test Suite. Finally, note that certain component
+substitutions and modifications are explicitly forbidden by this document.</p>

+<a name="section-3.1"></a><h3 id="section-3.1">3.1. Managed API Compatibility</h3>
+<p>The managed (Dalvik-based) 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 VM environment. Device implementations MUST provide complete
+implementations, including all documented behaviors, of any documented API
+exposed by the Android SDK [<a href="#resources04">Resources, 4</a>].</p>
+<p>Device implementations 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.</p>
+<p>This Compatibility Definition permits some types of hardware for which
+Android includes APIs to be omitted by device implementations. In such cases,
+the APIs MUST still be present and behave in a reasonable way. See
+<a href="#section-7">Section 7</a> for specific requirements for this scenario.
+</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.2"></a><h3 id="section-3.2">3.2. Soft API Compatibility</h3>
+<p>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 such as
+Intents, permissions, and similar aspects of Android applications that cannot
+be enforced at application compile time.</p>
+<a name="section-3.2.1"></a><h4 id="section-3.2.1">3.2.1. Permissions</h4>
+<p>Device implementers MUST support and enforce all permission constants as

+requirements related to the Android security model.</p>
+<a name="section-3.2.2"></a><h4 id="section-3.2.2">3.2.2. Build Parameters</h4>
+<p>The Android APIs include a number of constants on the <code>android.os.Build</code>
+class [<a href="#resources06">Resources, 6</a>] that are intended to describe
+the current device. To provide consistent, meaningful values across device
+implementations, the table below includes additional restrictions on the

+<a name="section-3.2.3"></a><h4 id="section-3.2.3">3.2.3. Intent Compatibility</h4>
+<p>
+Device implementations MUST honor Android's loose-coupling Intent system, as
+described in the sections below. By "honored", it is meant that the device
+implementer MUST provide an Android Activity or Service that specifies a
+matching Intent filter and binds to and implements correct behavior for each
+specified Intent pattern.</p>
+<a name="section-3.2.3.1"></a><h4 id="section-3.2.3.1">3.2.3.1. Core Application Intents</h4>
+<p>The Android upstream project defines a number of core applications, such as
+contacts, calendar, photo gallery, music player, and so on. Device implementers
+MAY replace these applications with alternative versions.</p>
+<p>However, any such alternative versions MUST honor the same Intent patterns
+provided by the upstream project. For example, if a device contains an
+alternative music player, it must still honor the Intent pattern issued by
+third-party applications to pick a song.</p>
+<p>The following applications are considered core Android system
+applications:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Desk Clock</li>
+<li>Browser</li>
+<li>Calendar</li>
+<li>Contacts</li>
+<!--<li>Email</li>-->
+<li>Gallery</li>
+<li>GlobalSearch</li>
+<li>Launcher</li>
+<!-- <li>LivePicker (that is, the Live Wallpaper picker application; MAY be omitted
+if the device does not support Live Wallpapers, per Section 3.8.5.)</li> -->
+<!-- <li>Messaging (AKA "Mms")</li> -->
+<li>Music</li>
+<!-- <li>Phone</li> -->
+<li>Settings</li>
+<!-- <li>SoundRecorder</li> -->
+</ul>
+<p>The core Android system applications include various Activity, or Service
+components that are considered "public". That is, the attribute
+"android:exported" may be absent, or may have the value "true".</p>
+<p>For every Activity or Service defined
+in one of the core Android system apps that is not marked as non-public via an
+android:exported attribute with the value "false", device implementations MUST
+include a component of the same type implementing the same Intent filter
+patterns as the core Android system app.</p>
+<p>In other words, a device implementation MAY replace core Android system
+apps; however, if it does, the device implementation MUST support all Intent
+patterns defined by each core Android system app being replaced.</p>
+<a name="section-3.2.3.2"></a><h4 id="section-3.2.3.2">3.2.3.2. Intent Overrides</h4>
+<p>As Android is an extensible platform, device implementations MUST allow each
+Intent pattern referenced in Section 3.2.3.1 to be overridden by third-party
+applications. The upstream Android open source implementation allows this by
+default; 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 which all handle the same Intent pattern.</p>
+<p>However, device implementations MAY provide default activities for specific
+URI patterns (eg. http://play.google.com) if the default activity provides a
+more specific filter for the data URI. For example, an intent filter specifying
+the data URI "http://www.android.com" is more specific than the browser filter
+for "http://". Device implementations MUST provide a user interface for users
+to modify the default activity for intents.</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.2.3.3"></a><h4 id="section-3.2.3.3">3.2.3.3. Intent Namespaces</h4>
+<p>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. 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. 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.</p>
+<p>This prohibition is analogous to that specified for Java language classes
+in Section 3.6.</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.2.3.4"></a><h4 id="section-3.2.3.4">3.2.3.4. Broadcast Intents</h4>
+<p>Third-party applications rely on the platform to broadcast certain Intents
+to notify them of changes in the hardware or software environment.
+Android-compatible devices MUST broadcast the public broadcast Intents in
+response to appropriate system events. Broadcast Intents are described in the
+SDK documentation.</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.2.3.5"></a><h4 id="section-3.2.3.5">3.2.3.5. Default App Settings</h4>
+<p>Android 4.4 adds settings that allow users to select their default Home and
+SMS applications. Device implementations MUST provide a similar user settings
+menu for each, compatible with the Intent filter pattern and API methods
+described in the SDK documentation [<a href="#resources91">Resources, 91</a>].
+</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.3"></a><h3 id="section-3.3">3.3. Native API Compatibility</h3>
+<a name="section-3.3.1"></a><h4 id="section-3.3.1">3.3.1 Application Binary Interfaces</h4>
+<p>Managed code running in Dalvik 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, in the file
+<code>docs/CPU-ARCH-ABIS.html</code>. If a device implementation is compatible
+with one or more defined ABIs, it SHOULD implement compatibility with the
+Android NDK, as below.</p>
+<p>If a device implementation includes support for an Android ABI, it:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>MUST include support for code running in the managed environment to call
+into native code, using the standard Java Native Interface (JNI)
+semantics</li>
+<li>MUST be source-compatible (i.e. header compatible) and binary-compatible
+(for the ABI) with each required library in the list below</li>
+<li>MUST accurately report the native Application Binary Interface (ABI)
+supported by the device, via the <code>android.os.Build.CPU_ABI</code>

+native code:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>libc (C library)</li>
+<li>libm (math library)</li>
+<li>Minimal support for C++</li>
+<li>JNI interface</li>
+<li>liblog (Android logging)</li>
+<li>libz (Zlib compression)</li>
+<li>libdl (dynamic linker)</li>
+<li>libGLESv1_CM.so (OpenGL ES 1.0)</li>
+<li>libGLESv2.so (OpenGL ES 2.0)</li>

+<li>libandroid.so (native Android activity support)</li>
+<li>Support for OpenGL, as described below</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Note that future releases of the Android NDK may introduce support for
+additional ABIs. If a device implementation is not compatible with an existing
+predefined ABI, it MUST NOT report support for any ABI at all.</p>
+<p>Note that device implementations MUST include libGLESv3.so and it MUST symlink (symbolic)
+link to libGLESv2.so. On device implementations that declare support for OpenGL ES 3.0, libGLESv2.so
+MUST export the OpenGL ES 3.0 function symbols in addition to the OpenGL ES 2.0 function symbols.</p>
+<p>Native code compatibility is challenging. For this reason, it should be
+repeated that device implementers are VERY strongly encouraged to use the
+upstream implementations of the libraries listed above to help ensure
+compatibility.</p>

+<a name="section-3.4.1"></a><h4 id="section-3.4.1">3.4.1. WebView Compatibility</h4>
+<p>The Android Open Source implementation uses code from the Chromium
+Project to implement the <code>android.webkit.WebView</code> [<a href="#resources10">Resources, 10</a>] . Because it is not feasible
+to develop a comprehensive test suite for a web rendering system, device
+implementers MUST use the specific upstream build of Chromium in the WebView
+implementation. Specifically:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Device <code>android.webkit.WebView</code> implementations MUST be based
+on the Chromium build from the upstream Android Open Source Project for Android 4.4.
+This build includes a specific set of functionality and security fixes for the
+WebView. [<a href="#resources83">Resources, 83</a>]</li>
+<li>The user agent string reported by the WebView MUST be in this format:<br/>
+ <code>Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android $(VERSION); $(LOCALE); $(MODEL)
+Build/$(BUILD)) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0
+$(CHROMIUM_VER) Mobile Safari/537.36</code>
+ <ul>
+ <li>The value of the $(VERSION) string MUST be the same as the value for
+<code>android.os.Build.VERSION.RELEASE</code>.</li>
+ <li>The value of the $(LOCALE) string is optional, SHOULD follow the ISO
+conventions for country code and language, and SHOULD refer to the current
+configured locale of the device. If omitted, the trailing semicolon MUST
+also be removed.</li>
+ <li>The value of the $(MODEL) string MUST be the same as the value for
+<code>android.os.Build.MODEL</code>.</li>
+ <li>The value of the $(BUILD) string MUST be the same as the value for
+<code>android.os.Build.ID</code>.</li>
+ <li>The value of the $(CHROMIUM_VER) string MUST be the version of Chromium in
+the upstream Android Open Source Project.</li>
+ <li>Device implementations MAY omit <code>Mobile</code> in the user agent
+string.</li>
+ </ul>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>The WebView component SHOULD include support for as much of HTML5 [<a
+href="#resources11">Resources, 11</a>] as possible.</p>
+<a name="section-3.4.2"></a><h4 id="section-3.4.2">3.4.2. Browser Compatibility</h4>
+<p>Device implementations MUST include a standalone Browser application for
+general user web browsing. The standalone Browser MAY be based on a
+browser technology other than WebKit. However, even if an alternate Browser
+application is used, the <code>android.webkit.WebView</code> component
+provided to third-party applications MUST be based on WebKit, as described in
+Section 3.4.1.</p>
+<p>Implementations MAY ship a custom user agent string in the standalone
+Browser application.</p>
+<p>The standalone Browser application (whether based on the upstream
+WebKit Browser application or a third-party replacement) SHOULD include support
+for as much of HTML5 [<a href="#resources11">Resources, 11</a>] as possible.
+Minimally, device implementations MUST support each of these APIs associated
+with HTML5:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>application cache/offline operation [<a href="#resources12">Resources, 12</a>]</li>
+<li>the &lt;video&gt; tag [<a href="#resources13">Resources, 13</a>]</li>
+<li>geolocation [<a href="#resources14">Resources, 14</a>]</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Additionally, device implementations MUST support the HTML5/W3C webstorage
+API [<a href="#resources15">Resources, 15</a>], and SHOULD support the
+HTML5/W3C IndexedDB API [<a href="#resources16">Resources, 16</a>]. <i>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.</i></p>
+
+<a name="section-3.5"></a><h3 id="section-3.5">3.5. API Behavioral Compatibility</h3>
+<p>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 [<a href="#resources03">Resources, 3</a>]. Some specific areas
+of compatibility are:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Devices MUST NOT change the behavior or semantics of a standard Intent</li>
+<li>Devices MUST NOT alter the lifecycle or lifecycle semantics of a
+ particular type of system component (such as Service, Activity,
+ ContentProvider, etc.)</li>
+<li>Devices MUST NOT change the semantics of a standard permission</li>
+</ul>
+<p>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.</p>
+
+
+<a name="section-3.6"></a><h3 id="section-3.6">3.6. API Namespaces</h3>
+<p>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:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>java.*</li>
+<li>javax.*</li>
+<li>sun.*</li>
+<li>android.*</li>
+<li>com.android.*</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Prohibited modifications include:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Device implementations 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.</li>
+<li>Device implementers MAY modify the underlying implementation of the APIs,
+but such modifications MUST NOT impact the stated behavior and Java-language
+signature of any publicly exposed APIs.</li>
+<li>Device implementers MUST NOT add any publicly exposed elements (such as
+classes or interfaces, or fields or methods to existing classes or interfaces)
+to the APIs above.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>A "publicly exposed element" is any construct which is not decorated with
+the "@hide" marker as used in the upstream Android source code. In other
+words, device implementers MUST NOT expose new APIs or alter existing APIs in
+the namespaces noted above. Device implementers MAY make internal-only
+modifications, but those modifications MUST NOT be advertised or otherwise
+exposed to developers.</p>
+<p>Device implementers MAY add custom APIs, but any such APIs 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. Additionally, if a device implementation includes custom APIs
+outside the standard Android namespace, those APIs MUST be packaged in an
+Android shared library so that only apps that explicitly use them (via the
+<code>&lt;uses-library&gt;</code> mechanism) are affected by the increased
+memory usage of such APIs.</p>
+<p>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.</p>
+<p>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.</p>

+<p>Device implementations MUST support the full Dalvik Executable (DEX)
+bytecode specification and Dalvik Virtual Machine semantics [<a

+
+<a name="section-3.8.1"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.1">3.8.1. Launcher (Home Screen)</h4>
+<p>Android includes a launcher application (home screen) and support for third party applications to replace the device
+launcher (home screen). Device implementations that allow third party applications to replace the device home screen
+MUST declare the platform feature <code>android.software.home_screen</code>.</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.8.2"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.2">3.8.2. Widgets</h4>
+<p>Android defines a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that allows applications to expose an "AppWidget"
+to the end user [<a href="#resources18">Resources, 18</a>]. Device implementations that support embedding widgets on the
+home screen MUST meet the following requirements and declare support for platform feature <code>android.software.app_widgets</code>.</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Device launchers MUST include built-in support for AppWidgets, and expose user
+ interface affordances to add, configure, view, and remove AppWidgets directly within the Launcher.</li>
+ <li>Device implementations MUST be capable of rendering widgets that are 4 x 4 in the standard grid size.
+ (See the App Widget Design Guidelines in the Android SDK documentation [<a href="#resources18">Resources, 18</a>] for details.</li>
+ <li>Device implementations that include support for lock screen MUST support application widgets on the lock screen.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<a name="section-3.8.3"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.3">3.8.3. Notifications</h4>
+<p>Android includes APIs that allow developers to notify users of notable
+events [<a href="#resources19">Resources, 19</a>], using hardware and software
+features of the device.</p>
+<p>Some APIs allow applications to perform notifications or attract attention
+using hardware, specifically sound, vibration, and light. Device implementations
+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. Note that this
+behavior is further detailed in <a href="#section-7">Section 7.</a></p>
+<p>Additionally, the implementation MUST correctly render all resources
+(icons, sound files, etc.) provided for in the APIs [<a
+href="#resources20">Resources, 20</a>], or in the
+Status/System Bar icon style guide [<a href="#resources21">Resources, 21</a>].
+Device implementers MAY provide an alternative user experience for
+notifications than that provided by the reference Android Open Source
+implementation; however, such alternative notification systems MUST support
+existing notification resources, as above.</p>
+<p>Android includes support for rich notifications, such as interactive
+Views for ongoing notifications. Device implementations MUST properly display
+and execute rich notifications, as documented in the Android APIs.</p>
+<a name="section-3.8.4"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.4">3.8.4. Search</h4>
+<p>Android includes APIs [<a href="#resources22">Resources, 22</a>] 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.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST include a single, shared, system-wide search
+user interface capable of real-time suggestions in response to user input.
+Device implementations MUST implement the APIs that allow developers to reuse
+this user interface to provide search within their own applications. Device
+implementations 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 this functionality,
+the default behavior SHOULD be to display web search engine results and
+suggestions.</p>
+<a name="section-3.8.5"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.5">3.8.5. Toasts</h4>
+<p>Applications can use the "Toast" API (defined in [<a
+href="#resources23">Resources, 23</a>]) to
+display short non-modal strings to the end user, that disappear after a brief
+period of time. Device implementations MUST display Toasts from applications
+to end users in some high-visibility manner.</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.8.6"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.6">3.8.6. Themes</h4>
+<p>Android provides "themes" as a mechanism for applications to apply styles
+across an entire Activity or application.</p>
+<p>Android includes a "Holo" 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 [<a href="#resources24">Resources, 24</a>].
+Device implementations MUST NOT alter any of the Holo theme attributes exposed
+to applications [<a href="#resources25">Resources, 25</a>].</p>
+<p>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 DeviceDefault theme attributes exposed to applications
+[<a href="#resources25">Resources, 25</a>].</p>
+<p>From version 4.4, Android now supports a new variant theme with translucent system bars,
+allowing 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. Therefore, Android
+device implementations 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
+[<a href="#resources25">Resources, 25</a>].</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.8.7"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.7">3.8.7. Live Wallpapers</h4>
+<p>Android defines a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that
+allows applications to expose one or more "Live Wallpapers" to the end user
+[<a href="#resources26">Resources, 26</a>]. Live Wallpapers are animations,
+patterns, or similar images with limited input capabilities that display as a
+wallpaper, behind other applications.</p>
+<p>Hardware is considered capable of reliably running live wallpapers if it
+can run all live wallpapers, with no limitations on functionality, at a
+reasonable framerate with no adverse affects 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 Open GL 1.0 or 2.0
+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.</p>
+<p>Device implementations capable of running live wallpapers reliably as
+described above SHOULD implement live wallpapers. Device implementations
+determined to not run live wallpapers reliably as described above MUST NOT
+implement live wallpapers.</p>
+<a name="section-3.8.8"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.8">3.8.8. Recent Application Display</h4>
+<p>The upstream Android source code includes a user interface for
+displaying recent applications using a thumbnail image of the application's
+graphical state at the moment the user last left the application. Device
+implementations MAY alter or eliminate this user interface; however, a future
+version of Android is planned to make more extensive use of this
+functionality. Device implementations are strongly encouraged to use the
+upstream Android user interface (or a similar thumbnail-based interface)
+for recent applications, or else they may not be compatible with a future
+version of Android.</p>
+<a name="section-3.8.9"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.9">3.8.9. Input Management</h4>
+<p>Android includes support for Input Management and support for third party input method editors.
+Device implementations that allow users to use third party input methods on the device MUST declare the platform feature
+<code>android.software.input_methods</code> and support IME APIs as defined in the Android SDK documentation.</p>
+<p>Device implementations that declare the <code>android.software.input_methods</code> feature MUST provide a user-accessible mechanism
+to add and configure third party input methods. Device implementations MUST display the settings interface in response to the
+<code>android.settings.INPUT_METHOD_SETTINGS</code> intent.</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.8.10"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.10">3.8.10. Lock Screen Media Remote Control</h4>
+<p>Android includes support for Remote Control API that lets media applications integrate with playback controls
+that are displayed in a remote view like the device lock screen [<a href="#resources74">Resources, 74</a>]. Device implementations
+that support lock screen in the device and allow users to add widgets on the home screen MUST
+include support for embedding remote controls in the device lock screen [<a href="#resources69">Resources, 69</a>].</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.8.11"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.11">3.8.11. Dreams</h4>
+<p>Android includes support for interactive screensavers called Dreams [<a href="#resources76">Resources, 76</a>].
+Dreams allows users to interact with applications when a charging device is idle, or docked in a desk dock. Device implementations
+MUST include support for Dreams and provide a settings option for users to configure Dreams.</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.8.12"></a><h4 id="section-3.8.12">3.8.12. Location</h4>
+<p>Location modes MUST be displayed in the Location menu within Settings [<a

+<code>SettingInjectorService</code> introduced in Android 4.4 must be displayed
+in the same Location menu [<a href="#resources89">Resources, 89</a>].</p>

+and MUST be capable of rendering these emoji characters in color glyph.</p>
+
+<a name="section-3.9"></a><h3 id="section-3.9">3.9. Device Administration</h3>
+<p>Android includes features that allow security-aware applications
+to perform device administration functions at the system level, such as enforcing
+password policies or performing remote wipe, through the Android Device
+Administration API [<a href="#resources27">Resources, 27</a>]. Device
+implementations MUST provide an implementation of the <code>DevicePolicyManager</code>
+class [<a href="#resources28">Resources, 28</a>]. Device implementations that include support for lock screen
+MUST support the full range of device administration policies defined in the Android SDK
+documentation [<a href="#resources27">Resources, 27</a>].</p>
+<p>Device implementations MAY have a preinstalled application performing device

+
+<a name="section-3.10"></a><h3 id="section-3.10">3.10. Accessibility</h3>
+<p>Android provides an accessibility layer that helps users with disabilities
+to navigate their devices more easily. In addition, Android provides
+platform APIs that enable accessibility service implementations to receive
+callbacks for user and system events and generate alternate feedback mechanisms,
+such as text-to-speech, haptic feedback, and trackball/d-pad navigation
+[<a href="#resources29">Resources, 29</a>]. Device implementations MUST provide an
+implementation of the Android accessibility framework consistent with the
+default Android implementation. Specifically, device implementations MUST meet
+the following requirements.</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Device implementations MUST support third party accessibility service
+ implementations through the <code>android.accessibilityservice</code>
+ APIs [<a href="#resources30">Resources, 30</a>].</li>
+ <li>Device implementations MUST generate <code>AccessibilityEvents</code>
+ and deliver these events to all registered <code>AccessibilityService
+ </code> implementations in a manner consistent with the default Android

+ <li>Device implementations MUST provide a user-accessible mechanism to enable
+ and disable accessibility services, and MUST display this interface in
+ response to the
+ <code>android.provider.Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS</code>
+ intent.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Additionally, device implementations SHOULD provide an implementation
+of an accessibility service on the device, and SHOULD provide a mechanism
+for users to enable the accessibility service during device setup. An open

+<p>When an application has used the <code>android.media.AudioRecord</code> API to
+start recording an audio stream, device implementations that include microphone

+<ul>
+<li>The device SHOULD exhibit approximately flat amplitude versus frequency
+ characteristics; specifically, &plusmn;3 dB, from 100 Hz to 4000 Hz</li>
+<li>Audio input sensitivity SHOULD be set such that a 90 dB sound power level
+ (SPL) source at 1000 Hz yields RMS of 2500 for 16-bit samples.</li>
+<li>PCM amplitude levels SHOULD linearly track input SPL changes over at least
+ a 30 dB range from -18 dB to +12 dB re 90 dB SPL at the microphone.</li>
+<li>Total harmonic distortion SHOULD be less than 1% for 1Khz at 90 dB SPL input level.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>In addition to the above recording specifications, when an application has
+started recording an audio stream using the
+<code>android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource.VOICE_RECOGNITION</code> audio
+source:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Noise reduction processing, if present, MUST be disabled.</li>
+<li>Automatic gain control, if present, MUST be disabled.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>From Android 4.4, <code>android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource</code> class has a new
+audio source: <code>REMOTE_SUBMIX</code>. Devices MUST properly implement the
+<code>REMOTE_SUBMIX</code> audio source so that when an application uses the
+<code>android.media.AudioRecord</code> API to record from this audio source,
+it can capture a mix of all audio streams except for the following:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>STREAM_RING</code></li>
+<li><code>STREAM_ALARM</code></li>
+<li><code>STREAM_NOTIFICATION</code></li>
+</ul>
+<p><b>Note:</b> while some of the requirements outlined above are stated as

+requirements</b>, or they will not be able to attain Android
+compatibility when upgraded to the future version.</p>
+<p>If the platform supports noise suppression technologies tuned for speech
+recognition, the effect MUST be controllable from the

+<p>Audio latency is the time delay as an audio signal passes through a system.
+Many classes of

+<p>For the purposes of this section:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>"output latency" is defined as the interval between when an application
+writes a frame of PCM-coded data and when the corresponding sound can be heard
+by an external listener or observed by a transducer</li>
+<li>"cold output latency" is defined as the output latency for the first frame, when
+ the audio output system has been idle and powered down prior to the request</li>
+<li>"continuous output latency" is defined as the output latency for subsequent frames,
+ after the device is already playing audio</li>
+<li>"input latency" is the interval between when an external sound is presented
+to the device and when an application reads the corresponding frame of PCM-coded data</li>
+<li>"cold input latency" is defined as 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</li>
+<li>"continuous input latency" is defined as the input latency for subsequent frames,
+ while the device is already capturing audio</li>
+<li>"OpenSL ES PCM buffer queue API" is the set of PCM-related OpenSL ES APIs within Android NDK;
+see <i>NDK_root</i><code>/docs/opensles/index.html</code></li>
+</ul>
+<p>Per <a href="#section-5">Section 5</a>,

+Device implementations SHOULD meet or exceed these output latency requirements:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>cold output latency of 100 milliseconds or less</li>
+<li>continuous output latency of 45 milliseconds or less</li>
+</ul>
+<p>If a device implementation meets the requirements of this section
+after any initial calibration
+when using the OpenSL ES PCM buffer queue API,
+for continuous output latency and cold output latency
+over at least one supported audio output device, it MAY
+report support for low-latency audio, by reporting the feature
+"android.hardware.audio.low-latency" via the
+<code>android.content.pm.PackageManager</code> class. [<a
+href="#resources37">Resources, 37</a>] Conversely, if the device
+implementation does not meet these requirements it MUST NOT report support for

+<a name="section-6.1"></a><h3 id="section-6.1">6.1. Developer Tools</h3>
+<p>Device implementations MUST support the Android Developer Tools provided in the Android SDK.
+Specifically, Android-compatible devices MUST be compatible with:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><b>Android Debug Bridge (known as adb)</b> [<a href="#resources33">Resources, 33</a>]<br/>
+Device implementations MUST support all <code>adb</code> functions as
+documented in the Android SDK. The device-side <code>adb</code> daemon MUST
+be inactive by default, and there MUST be a user-accessible mechanism to turn
+on the Android Debug Bridge.</li>
+<li>Android includes support for secure adb. Secure adb enables adb on known authenticated hosts.
+Device implementations MUST support secure adb.</li>
+<li><b>Dalvik Debug Monitor Service (known as ddms)</b> [<a href="#resources33">Resources, 33</a>]<br/>
+Device implementations MUST support all <code>ddms</code> features as documented in the
+Android SDK. As <code>ddms</code> uses <code>adb</code>, support for
+<code>ddms</code> SHOULD be inactive by default,
+but MUST be supported whenever the user has activated the Android Debug
+Bridge, as above.</li>
+<li><b>Monkey</b> [<a href="#resources36">Resources, 36</a>]<br/>
+Device implementations MUST include the Monkey framework, and make it
+available for applications to use.</li>
+<li><b>SysTrace</b> [<a href="#resources33">Resources, 33</a>]<br/>
+Device implementations MUST support systrace tool as documented in the Android SDK.
+Systrace must be inactive by default, and there MUST be a user-accessible mechanism to turn
+on Systrace.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Most Linux-based systems and Apple Macintosh systems recognize Android
+devices using the standard Android SDK tools, without additional support;
+however Microsoft Windows systems typically require a driver for new Android
+devices. (For instance, new vendor IDs and sometimes new device IDs require
+custom USB drivers for Windows systems.) If a device implementation is
+unrecognized by the <code>adb</code> tool as provided in the standard Android
+SDK, device implementers MUST provide Windows drivers allowing developers to
+connect to the device using the <code>adb</code> protocol. These drivers MUST
+be provided for Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8, in both 32-bit and
+64-bit versions.</p>
+
+<a name="section-6.2"></a><h3 id="section-6.2">6.2. Developer Options</h3>
+<p>Android includes support for developers to configure application development-related settings.
+Device implementations MUST honor the android.settings.APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS intent to show
+application development-related settings [<a href="#resources77">Resources, 77</a>]. 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. Device implementations
+MUST provide a consistent experience for Developer Options. Specifically, device implementations MUST hide
+Developer Options by default and MUST provide a mechanism to enable Developer Options that is consistent with
+the upstream Android implementation.</p>
+
+<a name="section-6.2.1"></a><h4 id="section-6.2.1">6.2.1. Experimental</h4>
+<p>Android 4.4 introduces ART, an experimental Android runtime, accessible
+within the Developer Options menu for preview. Device
+implementations SHOULD include ART (libart.so) and support dual boot from
+Developer Options, but MUST keep Dalvik (libdvm.so) as the default runtime.</p>
+
+<a name="section-7"></a><h2 id="section-7">7. Hardware Compatibility</h2>
+<p>If a device includes a particular hardware component that has a
+corresponding API for third-party developers, 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:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>complete class definitions (as documented by the SDK) for the component's
+APIs MUST still be present</li>
+<li>the API's behaviors MUST be implemented as no-ops in some reasonable
+fashion</li>
+<li>API methods MUST return null values where permitted by the SDK
+documentation</li>
+<li>API methods MUST return no-op implementations of classes where null
+values are not permitted by the SDK documentation</li>
+<li>API methods MUST NOT throw exceptions not documented by the SDK
+documentation</li>
+</ul>
+<p>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.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST accurately report accurate hardware configuration
+information via the <code>getSystemAvailableFeatures()</code> and
+<code>hasSystemFeature(String)</code> methods on the
+<code>android.content.pm.PackageManager</code> class. [<a

+
+<a name="section-7.1"></a><h3 id="section-7.1">7.1. Display and Graphics</h3>
+<p>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 [<a
+href="#resources38">Resources, 38</a>]. Devices MUST properly implement these
+APIs and behaviors, as detailed in this section.</p>
+
+<p>The units referenced by the requirements in this section are defined as follows:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>"Physical diagonal size" is the distance in inches between two opposing
+corners of the illuminated portion of the display.</li>
+<li>"dpi" (meaning "dots per inch") is 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.</li>
+<li>"Aspect ratio" is the ratio of the longer dimension of the screen to the
+shorter dimension. For example, a display of 480x854 pixels would be 854 / 480
+= 1.779, or roughly "16:9".</li>
+<li>A "density-independent pixel" or ("dp") is the virtual pixel unit normalized to a
+160 dpi screen, calculated as:
+<code>pixels = dps * (density / 160)</code>.</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<a name="section-7.1.1"></a><h4 id="section-7.1.1">7.1.1. Screen Configuration</h4>
+
+<p style="font-weight:bold;">Screen Size</p>
+<p>The Android UI framework supports a variety of different screen sizes, and
+allows applications to query the device screen size (aka "screen layout") via
+<code>android.content.res.Configuration.screenLayout</code> with the
+<code>SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_MASK</code>. Device implementations MUST report the
+correct screen size as defined in the Android SDK documentation
+[<a href="#resources38">Resources, 38</a>] and determined by the upstream
+Android platform. Specifically, device implementations must report the correct
+screen size according to the following logical density-independent pixel (dp)
+screen dimensions.</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Devices MUST have screen sizes of at least 426 dp x 320 dp ('small')</li>
+<li>Devices that report screen size 'normal' MUST have screen sizes of at least
+480 dp x 320 dp</li>
+<li>Devices that report screen size 'large' MUST have screen sizes of at least
+640 dp x 480 dp</li>
+<li>Devices that report screen size 'xlarge' MUST have screen sizes of at least
+960 dp x 720 dp</li>
+</ul>
+<p>In addition, devices MUST have screen sizes of at least 2.5 inches in
+physical diagonal size.</p>
+
+<p>Devices MUST NOT change their reported screen size at any time.</p>
+<p>Applications optionally indicate which screen sizes they support via the
+<code>&lt;supports-screens&gt;</code> attribute in the AndroidManifest.xml
+file. Device implementations MUST correctly honor applications' stated support
+for small, normal, large, and xlarge screens, as described in the Android
+SDK documentation.</p>
+
+<p style="font-weight:bold;">Screen Aspect Ratio</p>
+<p>The aspect ratio MUST be a value from 1.3333 (4:3) to 1.86 (roughly 16:9)</p>
+
+<p style="font-weight:bold;">Screen Density</p>
+<p>The Android UI framework defines a set of standard logical densities to
+help application developers target application resources. Device
+implementations MUST report one of the following logical Android framework
+densities through the <code>android.util.DisplayMetrics</code> APIs, and MUST
+execute applications at this standard density.
+<ul>
+<li>120 dpi, known as 'ldpi'</li>
+<li>160 dpi, known as 'mdpi'</li>
+<li>213 dpi, known as 'tvdpi'</li>
+<li>240 dpi, known as 'hdpi'</li>
+<li>320 dpi, known as 'xhdpi'</li>
+<li>400 dpi, known as '400dpi'</li>
+<li>480 dpi, known as 'xxhdpi'</li>
+<li>640 dpi, known as 'xxxhdpi'</li>
+</ul>
+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.</p>

+<a name="section-7.1.3"></a><h4 id="section-7.1.3">7.1.3. Screen Orientation</h4>
+<p>Devices MUST support dynamic orientation by applications to

+default.</p>
+<p>Devices MUST report the correct value for the device's current orientation,

+<p>Devices MUST report which screen orientations they support (
+<code>android.hardware.screen.portrait</code> and/or
+<code>android.hardware.screen.landscape</code>) and MUST report at least one

+<p>Device implementations MUST support both OpenGL ES 1.0 and 2.0, as embodied
+and detailed in the Android SDK documentations. Device implementations SHOULD support
+OpenGL ES 3.0 on devices capable of supporting OpenGL ES 3.0.
+Device implementations MUST also support Android Renderscript, as detailed in the Android SDK
+documentation [<a href="#resources08">Resources, 8</a>].</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST also correctly identify themselves as
+supporting OpenGL ES 1.0, OpenGL ES 2.0, or OpenGL ES 3.0. That is:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>The managed APIs (such as via the <code>GLES10.getString()</code> method)
+MUST report support for OpenGL ES 1.0 and OpenGL ES 2.0 </li>
+<li>The native C/C++ OpenGL APIs (that is, those available to apps via
+libGLES_v1CM.so, libGLES_v2.so, or libEGL.so) MUST report support for
+OpenGL ES 1.0 and OpenGL ES 2.0.</li>
+<li>Device implementations that declare support for OpenGL ES 3.0 MUST support
+OpenGL ES 3.0 managed APIs and include support for native C/C++ APIs. On device
+implementations that declare support for OpenGL ES 3.0, libGLESv2.so MUST export the OpenGL ES 3.0
+function symbols in addition to the OpenGL ES 2.0 function symbols.
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations MAY implement any desired OpenGL ES extensions.
+However, device implementations MUST report via the OpenGL ES managed and
+native APIs all extension strings that they do support, and conversely MUST
+NOT report extension strings that they do not support.</p>
+<p>Note that Android includes support for applications to optionally
+specify that they require specific OpenGL texture compression formats. These
+formats are typically vendor-specific. Device implementations are not required
+by Android to implement any specific texture compression format. However,
+they SHOULD accurately report any texture compression formats that they do
+support, via the <code>getString()</code> method in the OpenGL API.</p>
+
+<p>Android includes a mechanism for applications to declare that they
+wanted to enable hardware acceleration for 2D graphics at the Application,
+Activity, Window or View level through the use of a manifest tag
+<code>android:hardwareAccelerated</code> or direct API calls
+[<a href="#resources09">Resources, 9</a>].</p>
+<p>In Android 4.4, device implementations MUST enable hardware acceleration by
+default, and MUST disable hardware acceleration if the developer so requests
+by setting <code>android:hardwareAccelerated="false"</code> or disabling
+hardware acceleration directly through the Android View APIs.</p>
+<p>In addition, device implementations MUST exhibit behavior consistent with the
+Android SDK documentation on hardware acceleration
+[<a href="#resources09">Resources, 9</a>].</p>
+<p>Android includes a <code>TextureView</code> object that lets developers
+directly integrate hardware-accelerated OpenGL ES textures as rendering targets
+in a UI hierarchy. Device implementations MUST support the <code>TextureView
+</code> API, and MUST exhibit consistent behavior with the upstream Android
+implementation.</p>
+<p>Android includes support for <code>EGL_ANDROID_RECORDABLE</code>, a EGLConfig attribute
+that indicates whether the EGLConfig supports rendering to an ANativeWindow that records images to a video.
+Device implementations MUST support <code>EGL_ANDROID_RECORDABLE</code> extension [<a href="#resources79">Resources, 79</a>].</p>
+
+<a name="section-7.1.5"></a><h4 id="section-7.1.5">7.1.5. Legacy Application Compatibility Mode</h4>
+<p>Android specifies a "compatibility mode" in which the framework
+operates in an 'normal' screen size equivalent (320dp width) mode for the benefit
+of legacy applications not developed for old versions of Android that pre-date
+screen-size independence. Device implementations MUST include support for legacy
+application compatibility mode as implemented by the upstream Android open source
+code. That is, device implementations MUST NOT alter the triggers or thresholds at
+which compatibility mode is activated, and MUST NOT alter the behavior of the
+compatibility mode itself.</p>
+
+<a name="section-7.1.6"></a><h4 id="section-7.1.6">7.1.6. Screen Types</h4>
+<p>Device implementation screens are classified as one of two types:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Fixed-pixel display implementations: the screen is a single panel that supports only a
+single pixel width and height. Typically the screen is physically integrated with
+the device. Examples include mobile phones, tablets, and so on.</li>
+<li>Variable-pixel display implementations: the device implementation either has no
+embedded screen and includes a video output port such as VGA, HDMI or a wireless port
+for display, or has an embedded screen that can change pixel dimensions. Examples
+include televisions, set-top boxes, and so on.</li>
+</ul>
+<p style="font-weight: bold;">Fixed-Pixel Device Implementations</p>
+<p>Fixed-pixel device implementations MAY use screens of any pixel dimensions, provided
+that they meet the requirements defined this Compatibility Definition.</p>
+<p>Fixed-pixel implementations MAY include a video output port for use with an
+external display. However, if that display is ever used for running apps, the
+device MUST meet the following requirements:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>The device MUST report the same screen configuration and display metrics, as detailed
+in Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2, as the fixed-pixel display.</li>
+<li>The device MUST report the same logical density as the fixed-pixel display.</li>
+<li>The device MUST report screen dimensions that are the same as, or very close to,
+the fixed-pixel display.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>For example, a tablet that is 7" diagonal size with a 1024x600 pixel resolution is
+considered a fixed-pixel large mdpi display implementation. If it contains a video
+output port that displays at 720p or 1080p the device implementation MUST scale the output so that
+applications are only executed in a large mdpi window, regardless of whether the fixed-pixel display
+or video output port is in use.</p>
+
+<p style="font-weight: bold;">Variable-Pixel Device Implementations</p>
+<p>Variable-pixel device implementations MUST support at least one of 1280x720,
+1920x1080, or 3840x2160 (that is, 720p, 1080p, or 4K). Device implementations with
+variable-pixel displays MUST NOT support any other screen configuration or
+mode. Device implementations with variable-pixel screens MAY change screen
+configuration or mode at runtime or boot-time. For example, a user of a
+set-top box may replace a 720p display with a 1080p display, and the device
+implementation may adjust accordingly.</p>
+
+<p>Additionally, variable-pixel device implementations MUST report the following
+configuration buckets for these pixel dimensions:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>1280x720 (also known as 720p): 'large' screen size, 'tvdpi' (213 dpi)
+density</li>
+<li>1920x1080 (also known as 1080p): 'large' screen size, 'xhdpi' (320 dpi)
+density</li>
+<li>3840x2160 (also known as 4K): 'large' screen size, 'xxxhdpi' (640 dpi)
+density</li>
+</ul>
+<p>For clarity, device implementations with variable pixel dimensions are
+restricted to 720p, 1080p, or 4K in Android 4.4, and MUST be configured to report
+screen size and density buckets as noted above.</p>

+<ul>
+<li>Devices MUST support displays capable of rendering 16-bit color graphics and
+SHOULD support displays capable of 24-bit color graphics.</li>
+<li>Devices MUST support displays capable of rendering animations.</li>
+<li>The display technology used MUST have a pixel aspect ratio (PAR) between
+ 0.9 and 1.1. That is, the pixel aspect ratio MUST be near square (1.0) with
+ a 10% tolerance.</li>
+</ul>
+<a name="section-7.1.8"></a><h4 id="section-7.1.8">7.1.8. External Displays</h4>
+<p>Android includes support for secondary display to enable media sharing capabilities and

+a wired, wireless or an embedded additional display connection then the device implementation MUST
+implement the display manager API as described in the Android SDK documentation [<a href="#resources75">Resources, 75</a>].
+Device implementations that support secure video output and are capable of supporting secure surfaces MUST declare support
+for <code>Display.FLAG_SECURE</code>. Specifically, device implementations that declare support for <code>Display.FLAG_SECURE</code>,
+MUST support <b>HDCP 2.x or higher</b> for Miracast wireless displays or <b>HDCP 1.2 or higher</b> for wired displays. The upstream
+Android open source implementation includes support for wireless (Miracast) and wired (HDMI) displays that satisfies this requirement.</p>

+<a name="section-7.2.3"></a><h4 id="section-7.2.3">7.2.3. Navigation keys</h4>
+<p>The Home, Recents and Back functions are essential to the Android navigation
+paradigm. Device implementations MUST make these functions available to the user
+at all times when running applications. These functions MAY be implemented via
+dedicated physical buttons (such as mechanical or capacitive touch buttons), or
+MAY be implemented using dedicated software keys on a distinct portion of the
+screen, gestures, touch panel, etc. Android supports both implementations. All
+of these functions MUST be accessible with a single action (e.g. tap,
+double-click or gesture) when visible.</p>
+<p>The Back and Recents functions SHOULD have a visible button or icon unless
+hidden together with other navigation functions in full-screen mode. The Home
+function MUST have a visible button or icon unless hidden together with other
+navigation functions in full-screen mode.</p>
+<p>The Menu function is deprecated in favor of action bar since Android 4.0.
+Device implementations SHOULD NOT implement a dedicated physical button for
+the Menu function. If the physical Menu button is implemented and the device
+is running applications with <code>targetSdkVersion</code> &gt; 10, the device
+implementation:</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>for a device launching with Android 4.4, MUST display the action overflow
+ button on the action bar when the action bar is visible and the resulting action
+ overflow menu popu is not empty.</li>
+ <li>for an existing device launched with an earlier version but upgrading to
+ Android 4.4, SHOULD display the action overflow button on the action bar
+ when the action bar is visible and the resulting action overflow menu popup
+ is not empty.</li>
+ <li>MUST NOT modify the position of the action overflow popup displayed by
+ selecting the overflow button in the action bar.</li>
+ <li>MAY render the action overflow popup at a modified position on the screen
+ when it is displayed by selecting the physical menu button.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>For backwards compatibility, device implementations MUST make available the
+Menu function to applications when <code>targetSdkVersion</code> &lt;= 10,
+either by a phsyical button, a software key or gestures. This Menu function
+should be presented unless hidden together with other navigation functions.</p>
+<p>Android supports Assist action [<a href="#resources63">Resources, 63</a>].
+Device implementations MUST make the Assist action available to the user at all
+times when running applications. The Assist action SHOULD be implemented as a
+long-press on the Home button or a swipe-up gesture on the software Home key.
+This function MAY be implemented via another physical button, software key or
+gestures, but MUST be accessible with a single action (e.g. tap, double-click or
+gesture) when other navigation keys are visible.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MAY use a distinct portion of the screen to display
+the navigation keys, but if so, MUST meet these requirements:</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Device implementation 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.</li>
+ <li>Device implementations MUST make available a portion of the display to
+ applications that meets the requirements defined in

+ <li>Device implementations MUST present the navigation keys in an unobtrusive
+ "low profile" (eg. dimmed) mode when applications specify

+<a name="section-7.2.4"></a><h4 id="section-7.2.4">7.2.4. Touchscreen input</h4>
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD have a pointer input system of some kind (either mouse-like, or touch). However, if a device
+implementation does not support a pointer input system, it MUST NOT report the <code>android.hardware.touchscreen</code> or
+<code>android.hardware.faketouch</code> feature constant. Device implementations that do include a pointer input system:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>SHOULD support fully independently tracked pointers, if the device input system supports multiple pointers</li>
+<li>MUST report the value of <code>android.content.res.Configuration.touchscreen</code> [<a href="#resources40">Resources, 40</a>]
+corresponding to the type of the specific touchscreen on the device</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Android includes support for a variety of touch screens, touch pads, and fake touch input devices.
+Touch screen based device implementations are associated with a display [<a href="#resources81">Resources, 81</a>]
+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.
+In contrast, a 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 4.0 includes the feature constant <code>android.hardware.faketouch</code>,
+which corresponds to a high-fidelity non-touch (that is, 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. Device implementations that declare the fake touch feature MUST meet the fake touch requirements in <a href="section 7.2.5">Section 7.2.5</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST report the correct feature corresponding to the type of input used. Device implementations that
+include a touchscreen (single-touch or better) MUST report the platform feature constant <code>android.hardware.touchscreen</code>.
+Device implementations that report the platform feature constant <code>android.hardware.touchscreen</code> MUST also report the platform feature constant
+<code>android.hardware.faketouch</code>. Device implementations that do not include a touchscreen (and rely on a pointer device only) MUST NOT report any
+touchscreen feature, and MUST report only <code>android.hardware.faketouch</code> if they meet the fake touch requirements in <a href="section 7.2.5">Section 7.2.5</a>.</p>

+<li>MUST report all sensor measurements using the relevant International System
+of Units (i.e. metric) values for each sensor type as defined in the Android SDK

+</ul>
+<p>The list above is not comprehensive; the documented behavior of the Android

+<p>"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 MUST NOT report the
+"android.hardware.telephony" feature or any sub-features, regardless of
+whether they use a cellular network for data connectivity.</p>
+<p>Android MAY be used on devices that do not include telephony hardware.
+That is, Android is compatible with devices that are not phones.
+However, if a device implementation does include GSM or CDMA telephony, it
+MUST implement full support for the API for that technology. Device
+implementations that do not include telephony hardware MUST implement the full
+APIs as no-ops.</p>

+<a name="section-7.4.5"></a><h4 id="section-7.4.5">7.4.5. Minimum Network Capability</h4>
+<p>Device implementations MUST include support for one or more forms of data

+<li>MUST have a resolution of at least 2 megapixels</li>
+<li>SHOULD have either hardware auto-focus, or software auto-focus implemented
+in the camera driver (transparent to application software)</li>
+<li>MAY have fixed-focus or EDOF (extended depth of field) hardware</li>
+<li>MAY include a flash. If the Camera includes a flash, the flash lamp MUST

+</ul>
+<a name="section-7.5.2"></a><h4 id="section-7.5.2">7.5.2. Front-Facing Camera</h4>

+<ul>
+<li>MUST have a resolution of at least VGA (that is, 640x480 pixels)</li>
+<li>MUST NOT use a front-facing camera as the default for the Camera API.
+That is, the camera API in Android has specific support for front-facing
+cameras, and device implementations MUST NOT configure the API to to treat a
+front-facing camera as the default rear-facing camera, even if it is the only
+camera on the device.</li>
+<li>MAY include features (such as auto-focus, flash, etc.)
+available to rear-facing cameras as described in Section 7.5.1.</li>
+<li>MUST horizontally reflect (i.e. mirror) the stream displayed by an app in a
+CameraPreview, as follows:</li>
+<ul>
+<li>If the device implementation is capable of being rotated by user (such as
+automatically via an accelerometer or manually via user input), the camera
+preview MUST be mirrored horizontally relative to the device's current
+orientation.</li>
+<li>If the current application has explicitly requested that the Camera
+display be rotated via a call to the
+<code>android.hardware.Camera.setDisplayOrientation()</code> [<a
+href="#resources50">Resources, 50</a>] method, the camera preview MUST be
+mirrored horizontally relative to the orientation specified by the
+application.</li>
+<li>Otherwise, the preview MUST be mirrored along the device's default horizontal axis.</li>
+</ul>
+<li>MUST mirror the image displayed by the postview in the same manner as
+the camera preview image stream. (If the device implementation does not
+support postview, this requirement obviously does not apply.)</li>
+<li>MUST NOT mirror the final captured still image or video streams returned
+to application callbacks or committed to media storage</li>
+</ul>
+<a name="section-7.5.3"></a><h4 id="section-7.5.3">7.5.3. Camera API Behavior</h4>
+<p>Device implementations MUST implement the following behaviors for the
+camera-related APIs, for both front- and rear-facing cameras:</p>
+<ol>
+<li>If an application has never called
+<code>android.hardware.Camera.Parameters.setPreviewFormat(int)</code>, then the
+device MUST use <code>android.hardware.PixelFormat.YCbCr_420_SP</code> for
+preview data provided to application callbacks.</li>
+<li>If an application registers an <code>android.hardware.Camera.PreviewCallback
+</code> instance and the system calls the <code>onPreviewFrame()</code> method
+when the preview format is YCbCr_420_SP, the data in the <code>byte[]</code>
+passed into <code>onPreviewFrame()</code> must further be in the NV21 encoding
+format. That is, NV21 MUST be the default.</li>
+<li>Device implementations MUST support the YV12 format (as denoted by the
+<code>android.graphics.ImageFormat.YV12</code> constant) for camera previews
+for both front- and rear-facing cameras. (The hardware video encoder and camera
+may use any native pixel format, but the device implementation MUST support conversion
+to YV12.)</li>
+</ol>
+<p>Device implementations MUST implement the full Camera API included in the
+Android SDK documentation [<a href="#resources51">Resources, 51</a>]),
+regardless of whether the device includes hardware autofocus or other
+capabilities. For instance, cameras that lack autofocus MUST still call any
+registered <code>android.hardware.Camera.AutoFocusCallback</code> 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.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST recognize and honor each parameter name defined
+as a constant on the <code>android.hardware.Camera.Parameters</code> class, if the
+underlying hardware supports the feature. If the device hardware does not
+support a feature, the API must behave as documented. Conversely, Device
+implementations MUST NOT honor or recognize string constants passed
+to the <code>android.hardware.Camera.setParameters()</code> method other than
+those documented as constants on the
+<code>android.hardware.Camera.Parameters</code>. 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 parameter <code>Camera.SCENE_MODE_HDR</code>
+[<a href="#resources78">Resources, 78</a>]).</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST broadcast the <code>Camera.ACTION_NEW_PICTURE</code>
+intent whenever a new picture is taken by the camera and the entry of the picture
+has been added to the media store.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST broadcast the <code>Camera.ACTION_NEW_VIDEO</code>
+intent whenever a new video is recorded by the camera and the entry of the picture
+has been added to the media store.</p>
+<a name="section-7.5.4"></a><h4 id="section-7.5.4">7.5.4. Camera Orientation</h4>
+<p>Both front- and rear-facing cameras, if present, 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.</p>
+
+<a name="section-7.6"></a><h3 id="section-7.6">7.6. Memory and Storage</h3>
+<a name="section-7.6.1"></a><h4 id="section-7.6.1">7.6.1. Minimum Memory and Storage</h4>
+<p>Device implementations MUST have at least 340MB of memory available to the
+kernel and userspace. The 340MB MUST be in addition to any memory dedicated to
+hardware components such as radio, video, and so on that is not under the
+kernel's control.</p>
+<p>Device implementations with less than 512MB of memory available to the kernel
+and userspace MUST return the value &quot;true&quot; for
+<code>ActivityManager.isLowRamDevice()</code>.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST have at least 1GB of non-volatile storage available
+for application private data. That is, the <code>/data</code> partition MUST be at
+least 1GB. Device implementations that run Android are <b>very strongly encouraged to
+have at least 2GB of non-volatile storage for application private data</b> so they will be
+able to upgrade to the future platform releases.</p>
+
+<p>The Android APIs include a Download Manager that applications may use to
+download data files [<a href="#resources56">Resources, 56</a>]. The device
+implementation of the Download Manager MUST be capable of downloading individual
+files of at least 100MB in size to the default "cache" location.</p>
+<a name="section-7.6.2"></a><h4 id="section-7.6.2">7.6.2. Shared External Storage</h4>
+<p>Device implementations MUST offer shared storage for applications. The
+shared storage provided MUST be at least 1GB in size.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST be configured with shared storage mounted by
+default, "out of the box". If the shared storage is not mounted on the Linux
+path <code>/sdcard</code>, then the device MUST include a Linux symbolic link
+from <code>/sdcard</code> to the actual mount point.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST enforce as documented the
+<code>android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE</code> permission on this
+shared storage. Shared storage MUST otherwise be writable by any application
+that obtains that permission.</p>
+<p>Device implementations MAY have hardware for user-accessible removable
+storage, such as a Secure Digital card. Alternatively, device implementations
+MAY allocate internal (non-removable) storage as shared storage for apps. The
+upstream Android Open Source Project includes an implementation that uses
+internal device storage for shared external storage APIs; device implementations
+SHOULD use this configuration and software implementation.</p>
+<p>Regardless of the form of shared storage used, device implementations MUST
+provide some mechanism to access the contents of shared storage from a host
+computer, such as USB mass storage (UMS) or Media Transfer Protocol (MTP). Device
+implementations MAY use USB mass storage, but SHOULD use Media Transfer
+Protocol. If the device implementation supports Media Transfer Protocol:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>The device implementation SHOULD be compatible with the reference Android
+MTP host, Android File Transfer [<a href="#resources57">Resources, 57</a>].</li>
+<li>The device implementation SHOULD report a USB device class of <code>0x00</code>.</li>
+<li>The device implementation SHOULD report a USB interface name of 'MTP'.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>If the device implementation lacks USB ports, it MUST provide a host
+computer with access to the contents of shared storage by some other means,
+such as a network file system.</p>
+<p>It is illustrative to consider two common examples. If a device
+implementation includes an SD card slot to satisfy the shared storage
+requirement, a FAT-formatted SD card 1GB in size or larger MUST be included
+with the device as sold to users, and MUST be mounted by default.
+Alternatively, if a device implementation uses internal fixed storage to
+satisfy this requirement, that storage MUST be 1GB in size or larger
+and mounted on <code>/sdcard</code> (or <code>/sdcard</code>
+MUST be a symbolic link to the physical location if it is mounted elsewhere.)</p>
+<p>Device implementations that include multiple shared storage paths (such as
+both an SD card slot and shared internal storage) MUST NOT allow Android
+applications to write to the secondary external storage, except for their
+package-specific directories on the secondary external storage, but SHOULD
+expose content from both storage paths transparently through Android's media
+scanner service and android.provider.MediaStore.</p>

+<a name="section-9.1"></a><h3 id="section-9.1">9.1. Permissions</h3>
+<p>Device implementations MUST support the Android permissions model as
+defined in the Android developer documentation [<a
+href="#resources54">Resources, 54</a>]. Specifically,
+implementations MUST enforce each permission defined as described in the SDK
+documentation; no permissions may be omitted, altered, or ignored.
+Implementations MAY add additional permissions, provided the new permission ID
+strings are not in the android.* namespace.</p>
+<a name="section-9.2"></a><h3 id="section-9.2">9.2. UID and Process Isolation</h3>
+<p>Device implementations MUST support the Android application sandbox model,
+in which each application runs as a unique Unix-style UID and in a separate
+process. Device implementations 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 [<a
+href="#resources54">Resources, 54</a>].</p>
+<a name="section-9.3"></a><h3 id="section-9.3">9.3. Filesystem Permissions</h3>
+<p>Device implementations MUST support the Android file access permissions
+model as defined in the Security and Permissions reference [<a
+href="#resources54">Resources, 54</a>].</p>
+<a name="section-9.4"></a><h3 id="section-9.4">9.4. Alternate Execution Environments</h3>
+<p>Device implementations MAY include runtime environments that execute
+applications using some other software or technology than the Dalvik virtual
+machine or native code. However, such alternate execution environments MUST
+NOT compromise the Android security model or the security of installed Android
+applications, as described in this section.</p>
+<p>Alternate runtimes MUST themselves be Android applications, and abide by
+ the standard Android security model, as described elsewhere in Section 9.</p>
+<p>Alternate runtimes MUST NOT be granted access to resources protected by
+ permissions not requested in the runtime's AndroidManifest.xml file via the
+ <code>&lt;uses-permission&gt;</code> mechanism.</p>
+<p>Alternate runtimes MUST NOT permit applications to make use of features
+ protected by Android permissions restricted to system applications.</p>
+<p>Alternate runtimes MUST abide by the Android sandbox model. Specifically:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Alternate runtimes SHOULD install apps via the PackageManager into
+ separate Android sandboxes (that is, Linux user IDs, etc.)</li>
+<li>Alternate runtimes MAY provide a single Android sandbox shared by all
+ applications using the alternate runtime</li>
+<li>Alternate runtimes 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</li>
+<li>Alternate runtimes MUST NOT launch with, grant, or be granted access to
+ the sandboxes corresponding to other Android applications</li>
+</ul>
+<p>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.</p>
+<p>The .apk files of alternate runtimes MAY be included in the system image of
+ a device implementation, but MUST be signed with a key distinct
+ from the key used to sign other applications included with the device
+ implementation.</p>
+<p>When installing applications, alternate runtimes MUST obtain user consent
+ for the Android permissions used by the application. That is, if 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. If 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.</p>
+
+<a name="section-9.5"></a><h3 id="section-9.5">9.5. Multi-User Support </h3>
+<p>Android includes support for multiple users and provides support for full user isolation
+[<a href="#resources70">Resources, 70</a>].</p>
+<p>Device implementations MUST meet these requirements related to multi-user support [<a href="#resources71">Resources, 71</a>]:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>As the behavior of the telephony APIs on devices with multiple users is currently undefined, device implementations that
+declare android.hardware.telephony MUST NOT enable multi-user support. </li>
+<li>Device implementations 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 [Resources, 54]</li>
+<li>Android includes support for 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. Device implementations that include support for multiple users
+MUST include support for restricted profiles. The upstream Android Open Source Project includes an implementation that satisfies this requirement.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Each user instance on an Android device MUST have separate and isolated external storage directories. Device implementations MAY store multiple users' data on the same volume or filesystem.
+However, the device implementation MUST ensure that applications owned by and running on behalf a given user cannot list, read, or write to data owned by any other user.
+Note that removable media, such as SD card slots, can allow one user to access another's data by means of a host PC. For this reason, device implementations that use removable media for the
+external storage APIs MUST encrypt the contents of the SD card if multi-user is enabled using a key stored only on non-removable media accessible only to the system. 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. Accordingly, device
+implementations MAY but SHOULD NOT enable multi-user if they use removable media [<a href="#resources72">Resources, 72</a>] for primary external storage.</p>
+
+<a name="section-9.6"></a><h3 id="section-9.6">9.6. Premium SMS Warning</h3>
+<p>Android includes support for warning users for any outgoing premium SMS message [<a href="#resources73">Resources, 73</a>] . Premium SMS messages are text messages sent to a service registered with a carrier that may incur a charge to the user.
+Device implementations that declare support for <code>android.hardware.telephony</code> MUST warn users before sending a SMS message to numbers identified by regular expressions defined in <code>/data/misc/sms/codes.xml</code> file in the device.
+The upstream Android Open Source Project provides an implementation that satisfies this requirement.
+</p>
+
+<a name="section-9.7"></a><h3 id="section-9.7">9.7. Kernel Security Features</h3>
+<p>The Android Sandbox includes features that can use the Security-Enhanced
+Linux (SELinux) mandatory access control (MAC) system and other security
+features in the Linux kernel. SELinux or any other security features, if
+implemented below the Android framework:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>MUST maintain compatibility with existing applications</li>
+<li>MUST not have a visible user interface, even when violations are detected
+</li>
+<li>SHOULD NOT be user or developer configurable</li>
+</ul>
+<p>If any API for configuration of policy is exposed to an application that can
+affect another application (such as a Device Administration API), the API MUST
+NOT allow configurations that break compatibility.</p>
+<p>Devices MUST implement SELinux and meet the following requirements, which
+are satisfied by the reference implementation in the upstream Android Open
+Source Project.</p>
+<ul>
+<li>it MUST support a SELinux policy that allows the SELinux mode to be set on
+a per-domain basis with:</li>
+<ul>
+ <li>domains that are in enforcing mode in the upstream Android Open Source
+ implementation (such as installd, netd, and vold) MUST be in enforcing mode
+ </li>
+ <li>domain(s) for third-party applications SHOULD remain in permissive mode to
+ ensure continued compatibility</li>
+</ul>
+<li>it SHOULD load policy from <code>/sepolicy</code> file on the device</li>
+<li>it MUST support dynamic updates of the SELinux policy file without requiring
+a system image update</li>
+<li>it MUST log any policy violations without breaking applications or affecting
+system behavior</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD retain the default SELinux policy provided in
+the upstream Android Open Source Project, until they have first audited their
+additions to the SELinux policy. Device implementations MUST be compatible with
+the upstream Android Open Source Project.</p>
+
+<a name="section-9.8"></a><h3 id="section-9.8">9.8. Privacy</h3>
+<p>If the device implements functionality in the system that captures the
+contents displayed on the screen and/or records the audio stream played on the
+device, it MUST continuously notify the user whenever this functionality is
+enabled and actively capturing/recording.</p>
+
+<a name="section-9.9"></a><h3 id="section-9.9">9.9. Full-Disk Encryption</h3>
+<p>IF the device has lockscreen, the device MUST support full-disk
+encryption.</p>
+
+<a name="section-10"></a><h2 id="section-10">10. Software Compatibility Testing</h2>
+<p>Device implementations MUST pass all tests described in this section.</p>
+<p>However, note that no software test package is fully comprehensive. For
+this reason, device implementers are very strongly encouraged 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.</p>
+<a name="section-10.1"></a><h3 id="section-10.1">10.1. Compatibility Test Suite</h3>
+<p>Device implementations MUST pass the Android Compatibility Test Suite (CTS)
+[<a href="#resources02">Resources, 2</a>] available from the Android Open Source
+Project, using the final shipping software on the device. Additionally, device
+implementers SHOULD use the reference implementation in the Android Open
+Source tree as much as possible, and MUST ensure compatibility in cases of
+ambiguity in CTS and for any reimplementations of parts of the reference
+source code.</p>
+<p>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 4.4. Device implementations MUST pass the latest CTS version
+available at the time the device software is completed.</p>
+<a name="section-10.2"></a><h3 id="section-10.2">10.2. CTS Verifier</h3>
+<p>Device implementations MUST correctly execute all applicable cases in the
+CTS Verifier. 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.</p>
+<p>The CTS Verifier has tests for many kinds of hardware, including some
+hardware that is optional. Device implementations MUST pass all tests for
+hardware which 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.</p>
+<p>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.</p>
+<a name="section-10.3"></a><h3 id="section-10.3">10.3. Reference Applications</h3>
+<p>Device implementers MUST test implementation compatibility using the
+following open source applications:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>The "Apps for Android" applications [<a href="#resources55">Resources, 55</a>]</li>
+<li>Replica Island (available in Google Play Store)</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Each app above MUST launch and behave correctly on the implementation, for
+the implementation to be considered compatible.</p>
+
+
+<a name="section-11"></a><h2 id="section-11">11. Updatable Software</h2>
+<p>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.</p>
+<p>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:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Over-the-air (OTA) downloads with offline update via reboot</li>
+<li>"Tethered" updates over USB from a host PC</li>
+<li>"Offline" updates via a reboot and update from a file on removable
+storage</li>
+</ul>
+<p>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.</p>
+<p>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, the device implementer MUST correct the error via a software
+update available that can be applied per the mechanism just described.</p>
+

+<h1 id=1_introduction>1. Introduction</h1>
+
+
+<p>This document enumerates the requirements that must be met in order for devices
+to be compatible with Android 5.0.</p>
+
+<p>The use of "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD",
+"SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY" and "OPTIONAL" is per the IETF standard
+defined in RFC2119 [<a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2119.txt">Resources, 1</a>].</p>
+
+<p>As used in this document, a "device implementer" or "implementer" is a person
+or organization developing a hardware/software solution running Android 5.0. A
+"device implementation" or "implementation" is the hardware/software solution
+so developed.</p>
+
+<p>To be considered compatible with Android 5.0, device implementations MUST meet
+the requirements presented in this Compatibility Definition, including any
+documents incorporated via reference.</p>
+
+<p>Where this definition or the software tests described in <a href="#heading=h.rafv96b0uwer">section 10</a> is silent, ambiguous, or incomplete, it is the responsibility of the device
+implementer to ensure compatibility with existing implementations.</p>
+
+<p>For this reason, the Android Open Source Project [<a href="http://source.android.com/">Resources, 2</a>] is both the reference and preferred implementation of Android. Device
+implementers are strongly encouraged to base their implementations to the
+greatest extent possible on the "upstream" source code available from the
+Android Open Source Project. While some components can hypothetically be
+replaced with alternate implementations this practice is strongly discouraged,
+as passing the software tests will become substantially more difficult. It is
+the implementer's responsibility to ensure full behavioral compatibility with
+the standard Android implementation, including and beyond the Compatibility
+Test Suite. Finally, note that certain component substitutions and
+modifications are explicitly forbidden by this document.</p>
+
+<p>Many of the resources listed in <a href="#heading=h.jhgs5yq2lqtj">section 14</a> are derived directly or indirectly from the Android SDK, and will be
+functionally identical to the information in that SDK's documentation. For any
+case where this Compatibility Definition or the Compatibility Test Suite
+disagrees with the SDK documentation, the SDK documentation is considered
+authoritative. Any technical details provided in the references included in <a href="#heading=h.jhgs5yq2lqtj">section 14</a> are considered by inclusion to be part of this Compatibility Definition. </p>
+
+<h1 id=2_device_types>2. Device Types</h1>
+
+
+<p>While the Android Open Source Project has been used in the implementation of a
+variety of device types and form factors, many aspects of the architecture and
+compatibility requirements were optimized for handheld devices. Starting from
+Android 5.0, the Android Open Source Project aims to embrace a wider variety of
+device types as described in this section.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Android Handheld device</strong> refers to an Android device implementation that is typically used by holding
+it in the hand, such as mp3 players, phones, and tablets. Android Handheld
+device implementations:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST have a touchscreen embedded in the device
+ <li> MUST have a power source that provides mobility, such as a battery
+</ul>
+
+<p><strong>Android Television device</strong> refers to an Android device implementation that is an entertainment interface
+for consuming digital media, movies, games, apps, and/or live TV for users
+sitting about ten feet away (a “lean back” or “10-foot user interface”).
+Android Television devices:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST have an embedded screen OR include a video output port, such as VGA, HDMI,
+or a wireless port for display
+ <li> MUST declare the features android.software.leanback and
+android.hardware.type.television [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html#FEATURE_LEANBACK">Resources, 3</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<p><strong>Android Watch device</strong> refers to an Android device implementation intended to be worn on the body,
+perhaps on the wrist, and:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST have a screen with the physical diagonal length in the range from 1.1 to
+2.5 inches
+ <li> MUST declare the feature android.hardware.type.watch
+ <li> MUST support uiMode = UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/res/Configuration.html#UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH">Resources, 4</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<p>All Android device implementations that do not fit into any of the above device
+types still MUST meet all requirements in this document to be Android 5.0
+compatible, unless the requirement is explicitly described to be only
+applicable to a specific Android device type. </p>

+
+<h2 id=3_1_managed_api_compatibility>3.1. Managed API Compatibility</h2>
+
+
+<p>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 MUST provide complete
+implementations, including all documented behaviors, of any documented API
+exposed by the Android SDK [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/packages.html">Resources, 5</a>] or any API decorated with the "@SystemApi" marker in the upstream Android
+source code. </p>
+
+<p>Device implementations 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.</p>
+
+<p>This Compatibility Definition permits some types of hardware for which Android
+includes APIs to be omitted by device implementations. In such cases, the APIs
+MUST still be present and behave in a reasonable way. See <a href="#heading=h.5h5uvpadidzr">section 7</a> for specific requirements for this scenario.</p>
+
+<h2 id=3_2_soft_api_compatibility>3.2. Soft API Compatibility</h2>
+
+
+<p>In addition to the managed APIs from <a href="#heading=h.kr68507hndy4">section 3.1</a>, 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.</p>
+
+<h3 id=3_2_1_permissions>3.2.1. Permissions</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementers MUST support and enforce all permission constants as
+documented by the Permission reference page [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.permission.html">Resources, 6]</a>. Note that <a href="#heading=h.a32osmf1tmwt">section 9</a> lists additional requirements related to the Android security model.</p>
+
+<h3 id=3_2_2_build_parameters>3.2.2. Build Parameters</h3>
+
+
+<p>The Android APIs include a number of constants on the android.os.Build class [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html">Resources, 7</a>] that are intended to describe the current device. 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.</p>

+<h3 id=3_2_3_intent_compatibility>3.2.3. Intent Compatibility</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST honor Android's loose-coupling intent system, as
+described in the sections below. By "honored", it is meant that the device
+implementer MUST provide an Android Activity or Service that specifies a
+matching intent filter that binds to and implements correct behavior for each
+specified intent pattern.</p>
+
+<h4 id=3_2_3_1_core_application_intents>3.2.3.1. Core Application Intents</h4>
+
+
+<p>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. The core Android applications are:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Desk Clock
+ <li> Browser
+ <li> Calendar
+ <li> Contacts
+ <li> Gallery
+ <li> GlobalSearch
+ <li> Launcher
+ <li> Music
+ <li> Settings
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD include the core Android applications as
+appropriate but MUST include a component implementing the same intent patterns
+defined by all the “public” Activity or Service components of these core
+Android applications. Note that Activity or Service components are considered
+"public" when the attribute android:exported is absent or has the value true.</p>
+
+<h4 id=3_2_3_2_intent_overrides>3.2.3.2. Intent Overrides</h4>
+
+
+<p>As Android is an extensible platform, device implementations MUST allow each
+intent pattern referenced in <a href="#heading=h.qiy4ddbiirgy">section 3.2.3.1</a> to be overridden by third-party applications. The upstream Android open source
+implementation allows this by default; 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.</p>
+
+<p>However, device implementations MAY provide default activities for specific URI
+patterns (eg. http://play.google.com) if the default activity provides a more
+specific filter for the data URI. For example, an intent filter specifying the
+data URI "http://www.android.com" is more specific than the browser filter for
+"http://". Device implementations MUST provide a user interface for users to
+modify the default activity for intents.</p>
+
+<h4 id=3_2_3_3_intent_namespaces>3.2.3.3. Intent Namespaces</h4>
+
+
+<p>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. 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. Device implementers MUST NOT alter or

+analogous to that specified for Java language classes in <a href="#heading=h.blmhfmxlmvir">section 3.6</a>.</p>
+
+<h4 id=3_2_3_4_broadcast_intents>3.2.3.4. Broadcast Intents</h4>
+
+
+<p>Third-party applications rely on the platform to broadcast certain intents to
+notify them of changes in the hardware or software environment.
+Android-compatible devices MUST broadcast the public broadcast intents in
+response to appropriate system events. Broadcast intents are described in the
+SDK documentation.</p>
+
+<h4 id=3_2_3_5_default_app_settings>3.2.3.5. Default App Settings</h4>
+
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST honor the android.settings.HOME_SETTINGS intent to show a default app
+settings menu for Home Screen, if the device implementation reports
+android.software.home_screen [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.html">Resources, 10]</a>
+ <li> MUST provide a settings menu that will call the
+android.provider.Telephony.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT intent to show a dialog to
+change the default SMS application, if the device implementation reports
+android.hardware.telephony [<a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Telephony.Sms.Intents.html">Resources, 9</a>]
+ <li> MUST honor the android.settings.NFC_PAYMENT_SETTINGS intent to show a default
+app settings menu for Tap and Pay, if the device implementation reports
+android.hardware.nfc.hce [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.html">Resources, 10]</a>

+
+
+<h3 id=3_3_1_application_binary_interfaces>3.3.1 Application Binary Interfaces</h3>
+
+
+<p>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 MUST be compatible with one or more
+defined ABIs, and MUST implement compatibility with the Android NDK, as below.</p>
+
+<p>If a device implementation includes support for an Android ABI, it:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST include support for code running in the managed environment to call into
+native code, using the standard Java Native Interface (JNI) semantics
+ <li> MUST be source-compatible (i.e. header compatible) and binary-compatible (for
+the ABI) with each required library in the list below
+ <li> MUST support the equivalent 32-bit ABI if any 64-bit ABI is supported
+ <li> 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, and
+android.os.Build.SUPPORTED_64_BIT_ABIS parameters, each a comma separated list
+of ABIs ordered from the most to the least preferred one
+ <li> MUST report, via the above parameters, only those ABIs documented in the latest
+version of the Android NDK, “NDK Programmer's Guide | ABI Management” in docs/
+directory
+ <li> SHOULD be built using the source code and header files available in the
+upstream Android Open Source Project
+</ul>
+
+<p>The following native code APIs MUST be available to apps that include native
+code:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> libc (C library)
+ <li> libm (math library)
+ <li> Minimal support for C++
+ <li> JNI interface
+ <li> liblog (Android logging)
+ <li> libz (Zlib compression)
+ <li> libdl (dynamic linker)
+ <li> libGLESv1_CM.so (OpenGL ES 1.x)
+ <li> libGLESv2.so (OpenGL ES 2.0)
+ <li> libGLESv3.so (OpenGL ES 3.x)
+ <li> libEGL.so (native OpenGL surface management)
+ <li> libjnigraphics.so
+ <li> libOpenSLES.so (OpenSL ES 1.0.1 audio support)
+ <li> libOpenMAXAL.so (OpenMAX AL 1.0.1 support)
+ <li> libandroid.so (native Android activity support)
+ <li> libmediandk.so (native media APIs support)
+ <li> Support for OpenGL, as described below
+</ul>
+
+<p>Note that future releases of the Android NDK may introduce support for
+additional ABIs. If a device implementation is not compatible with an existing
+predefined ABI, it MUST NOT report support for any ABIs at all.</p>
+
+<p>Note that device implementations MUST include libGLESv3.so and it MUST symlink
+(symbolic link) to libGLESv2.so. in turn, MUST export all the OpenGL ES 3.1 and
+Android Extension Pack [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/graphics/opengl.html#aep">Resources, 11</a>] function symbols as defined in the NDK release android-21. Although all the
+symbols must be present, only the corresponding functions for OpenGL ES
+versions and extensions actually supported by the device must be fully
+implemented.</p>
+
+<p>Native code compatibility is challenging. For this reason, device implementers
+are <strong>very strongly encouraged</strong> to use the implementations of the libraries listed above from the upstream
+Android Open Source Project. </p>

+The Android Open Source implementation uses code from the Chromium Project to
+implement the android.webkit.WebView [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html">Resources, 12</a>]. Because it is not feasible to develop a comprehensive test suite for a web
+rendering system, device implementers MUST use the specific upstream build of
+Chromium in the WebView implementation. Specifically:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Device android.webkit.WebView implementations MUST be based on the Chromium

+includes a specific set of functionality and security fixes for the WebView [<a href="http://www.chromium.org/">Resources, 13</a>].
+ <li> The user agent string reported by the WebView MUST be in this format:
+</ul>
+
+<p>Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android $(VERSION); $(MODEL) Build/$(BUILD))
+AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 $(CHROMIUM_VER) Mobile
+Safari/537.36</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li> The value of the $(VERSION) string MUST be the same as the value for

+ <li> Device implementations MAY omit Mobile in the user agent string.
+ </ul>
+
+<p>The WebView component SHOULD include support for as many HTML5 features as

+ <li> geolocation [<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/geolocation-API/">Resources, 17</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<p>Additionally, device implementations MUST support the HTML5/W3C webstorage API

+
+<h2 id=3_5_api_behavioral_compatibility>3.5. API Behavioral Compatibility</h2>
+
+
+<p>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 [<a href="http://source.android.com/">Resources, 2</a>]. Some specific areas of compatibility are:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Devices MUST NOT change the behavior or semantics of a standard intent.
+ <li> Devices MUST NOT alter the lifecycle or lifecycle semantics of a particular
+type of system component (such as Service, Activity, ContentProvider, etc.).
+ <li> Devices MUST NOT change the semantics of a standard permission.
+</ul>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<h2 id=3_6_api_namespaces>3.6. API Namespaces</h2>
+
+
+<p>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:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> java.*
+ <li> javax.*
+ <li> sun.*
+ <li> android.*
+ <li> com.android.*
+</ul>
+
+<p><strong>Prohibited modifications include</strong>:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Device implementations 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.
+ <li> Device implementers MAY modify the underlying implementation of the APIs, but
+such modifications MUST NOT impact the stated behavior and Java-language
+signature of any publicly exposed APIs.
+ <li> Device implementers MUST NOT add any publicly exposed elements (such as classes
+or interfaces, or fields or methods to existing classes or interfaces) to the
+APIs above.
+</ul>
+
+<p>A "publicly exposed element” is any construct which is not decorated with the
+"@hide" marker as used in the upstream Android source code. In other words,
+device implementers MUST NOT expose new APIs or alter existing APIs in the
+namespaces noted above. Device implementers MAY make internal-only
+modifications, but those modifications MUST NOT be advertised or otherwise
+exposed to developers.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementers MAY add custom APIs, but any such APIs 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. Additionally, if a device implementation includes custom APIs
+outside the standard Android namespace, those APIs 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.</p>
+
+<p>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 <a href="https://source.android.com/">source.android.com</a> and begin the process for contributing changes and code, according to the
+information on that site.</p>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<h2 id=3_7_runtime_compatibility>3.7. Runtime Compatibility</h2>

+Dalvik bytecode specification and semantics [<a href="https://android.googlesource.com/platform/dalvik/+/lollipop-release/docs/">Resources, 20</a>]. Device implementers SHOULD use ART, the reference upstream implementation of
+the Dalvik Executable Format, and the reference implementation's package
+management system.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST configure Dalvik runtimes to allocate memory in
+accordance with the upstream Android platform, and as specified by the
+following table. (See <a href="#heading=h.6fey5v3qb5m3">section 7.1.1</a> for screen size and screen density definitions.)</p>

+
+<p>Some APIs allow applications to perform notifications or attract attention
+using hardware—specifically sound, vibration, and light. Device implementations
+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 <a href="#heading=h.5h5uvpadidzr">section 7</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Additionally, the implementation MUST correctly render all resources (icons,
+sound files, etc.) provided for in the APIs [<a href="https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/available-resources.html">Resources, 23</a>], or in the Status/System Bar icon style guide [<a href="http://developer.android.com/design/style/iconography.html">Resources, 24</a>]. Device implementers MAY provide an alternative user experience for
+notifications than that provided by the reference Android Open Source
+implementation; however, such alternative notification systems MUST support
+existing notification resources, as above. </p>
+
+<p>Android includes support for various notifications, such as:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>Rich notifications</strong>—Interactive Views for ongoing notifications.
+ <li> <strong>Heads-up notifications</strong>—Interactive Views users can act on or dismiss without leaving the current app.
+ <li> <strong>Lockscreen notifications</strong>—Notifications shown over a lock screen with granular control on visibility.

+
+<p>Device implementations MUST properly display and execute these notifications,
+including the title/name, icon, text as documented in the Android APIs <a href="https://developer.android.com/design/patterns/notifications.html">[Resources, 25]</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Android includes Notification Listener Service APIs that allow apps (once
+explicitly enabled by the user) to receive a copy of all notifications as they

+notifications in their entirety to all such installed and user-enabled listener
+services, including any and all metadata attached to the Notification object.</p>

+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.</p>
+
+<p>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. Device implementations SHOULD implement the APIs that allow
+developers to reuse this user interface to provide search within their own
+applications. Device implementations that implement the global search interface
+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 this functionality, the default
+behavior SHOULD be to display web search engine results and suggestions.</p>

+application developers to use if they want to match the Holo theme look and
+feel as defined by the Android SDK [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/themes.html">Resources, 28</a>]. Device implementations MUST NOT alter any of the Holo theme attributes
+exposed to applications [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.style.html">Resources, 29</a>].</p>
+
+<p>Android 5.0 includes a “Material” theme family as a set of defined styles for

+feel across the wide variety of different Android device types. Device
+implementations MUST support the “Material” theme family and MUST NOT alter any
+of the Material theme attributes or their assets exposed to applications [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.style.html#Theme_Material">Resources, 30</a>].</p>
+
+<p>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 [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.style.html">Resources, 29</a>].</p>
+
+<p>Android supports a new 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. Therefore, Android device implementations
+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 [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.style.html">Resources, 29</a>].</p>
+
+<h3 id=3_8_7_live_wallpapers>3.8.7. Live Wallpapers</h3>
+
+
+<p>Android defines a component type and corresponding API and lifecycle that
+allows applications to expose one or more "Live Wallpapers" to the end user [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/wallpaper/WallpaperService.html">Resources, 31</a>]. Live wallpapers are animations, patterns, or similar images with limited
+input capabilities that display as a wallpaper, behind other applications.</p>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations capable of running live wallpapers reliably as described
+above SHOULD implement live wallpapers, and when implemented MUST report the
+platform feature flag android.software.live_wallpaper.</p>

+
+
+<p>The upstream Android source code includes the overview screen [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/components/recents.html">Resources, 32</a>], a system-level user interface for task switching and displaying recently
+accessed activities and tasks using a thumbnail image of the application's
+graphical state at the moment the user last left the application. Device
+implementations including the recents function navigation key as detailed in <a href="#heading=h.dzfhwcjzm5z6">section 7.2.3</a>, MAY alter the interface but MUST meet the following requirements:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST display affiliated recents as a group that moves together
+ <li> MUST support at least up to 20 displayed activities
+ <li> MUST at least display the title of 4 activities at a time

+
+
+<p>Android includes support for Input Management and support for third-party input
+method editors [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/text/creating-input-method.html">Resources, 34</a>]. Device implementations that allow users to use third-party input methods on
+the device MUST declare the platform feature android.software.input_methods and
+support IME APIs as defined in the Android SDK documentation.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations that declare the android.software.input_methods feature
+MUST provide a user-accessible mechanism to add and configure third-party input

+Media Notification Template that allows media applications to integrate with
+playback controls that are displayed on the lock screen [<a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Notification.MediaStyle.html">Resources, 35</a>]. Device implementations that support a lock screen in the device MUST support
+the Media Notification Template along with other notifications.</p>
+
+<h3 id=3_8_11_dreams>3.8.11. Dreams</h3>
+
+
+<p>Android includes support for interactive screensavers called Dreams [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/dreams/DreamService.html">Resources, 36</a>]. Dreams allows 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 Dreams, but other types of device implementations SHOULD include

+<p>Android includes support for color emoji characters. When Android device
+implementations include an IME, devices MUST provide an input method to the
+user for the Emoji characters defined in Unicode 6.1 [<a href="http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode6.1.0/">Resources, 38</a>]. All devices MUST be capable of rendering these emoji characters in color
+glyph.</p>
+
+<p>Android 5.0 includes support for Roboto 2 font with different
+weights—sans-serif-thin, sans-serif-light, sans-serif-medium, sans-serif-black,
+sans-serif-condensed, sans-serif-condensed-light—which MUST all be included for
+the languages available on the device and full Unicode 7.0 coverage of Latin,

+all glyphs in the currency symbols block of Unicode 7.0.</p>
+
+<h2 id=3_9_device_administration>3.9. Device Administration</h2>
+
+
+<p>Android includes features that allow security-aware applications to perform
+device administration functions at the system level, such as enforcing password
+policies or performing remote wipe, through the Android Device Administration
+API [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/admin/device-admin.html">Resources, 39</a>]. Device implementations MUST provide an implementation of the
+DevicePolicyManager class [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/admin/DevicePolicyManager.html">Resources, 40</a>]. Device implementations that include support for lock screen MUST support the
+full range of device administration policies defined in the Android SDK
+documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/admin/device-admin.html">Resources, 39</a>] and report the platform feature android.software.device_admin.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MAY have a preinstalled application performing device
+administration functions but this application MUST NOT be set out-of-the box as
+the default Device Owner app [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/admin/DevicePolicyManager.html#isDeviceOwnerApp(java.lang.String)">Resources, 41</a>].</p>
+
+<h2 id=3_10_accessibility>3.10. Accessibility</h2>
+
+
+<p>Android provides an accessibility layer that helps users with disabilities to
+navigate their devices more easily. In addition, Android provides platform APIs
+that enable accessibility service implementations to receive callbacks for user
+and system events and generate alternate feedback mechanisms, such as
+text-to-speech, haptic feedback, and trackball/d-pad navigation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/accessibilityservice/AccessibilityService.html">Resources, 42</a>]. Device implementations MUST provide an implementation of the Android
+accessibility framework consistent with the default Android implementation.
+Device implementations MUST meet the following requirements:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST support third-party accessibility service implementations through the
+android.accessibilityservice APIs [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/accessibility/package-summary.html">Resources, 43</a>]
+ <li> MUST generate AccessibilityEvents and deliver these events to all registered
+AccessibilityService implementations in a manner consistent with the default
+Android implementation
+ <li> Unless an Android Watch device with no audio output, device implementations
+MUST provide a user-accessible mechanism to enable and disable accessibility
+services, and MUST display this interface in response to the
+android.provider.Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS intent.
+</ul>
+
+<p>Additionally, device implementations SHOULD provide an implementation of an
+accessibility service on the device, and SHOULD provide a mechanism for users
+to enable the accessibility service during device setup. An open source
+implementation of an accessibility service is available from the Eyes Free
+project [<a href="https://code.google.com/p/eyes-free/">Resources, 44</a>].</p>
+
+<h2 id=3_11_text-to-speech>3.11. Text-to-Speech</h2>

+(TTS) services and allows service providers to provide implementations of TTS
+services [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/speech/tts/package-summary.html">Resources, 45</a>]. Device implementations reporting the feature android.hardware.audio.output
+MUST meet these requirements related to the Android TTS framework. </p>
+
+<p>Device implementations:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST support the Android TTS framework APIs and SHOULD include a TTS engine
+supporting the languages available on the device. Note that the upstream
+Android open source software includes a full-featured TTS engine
+implementation.
+ <li> MUST support installation of third-party TTS engines
+ <li> MUST provide a user-accessible interface that allows users to select a TTS
+engine for use at the system level
+</ul>
+
+<h2 id=3_12_tv_input_framework>3.12. TV Input Framework</h2>
+
+
+<p>The Android Television Input Framework (TIF) simplifies the delivery of live
+content to Android Television devices. TIF provides a standard API to create
+input modules that control Android Television devices. Android Television
+device implementations MUST support Television Input Framework [<a href="https://source.android.com/devices/tv/index.html">Resources, 46</a>].</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations that support TIF MUST declare the platform feature
+android.software.live_tv. </p>

+
+<h2 id=5_6_audio_latency>5.6. Audio Latency</h2>
+
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>For the purposes of this section, use the following definitions:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>output latency</strong>—The interval between when an application writes a frame of PCM-coded data and
+when the corresponding sound can be heard by an external listener or observed
+by a transducer.
+ <li> <strong>cold output latency</strong>—The output latency for the first frame, when the audio output system has been
+idle and powered down prior to the request.
+ <li> <strong>continuous output latency</strong>—The output latency for subsequent frames, after the device is playing audio.
+ <li> <strong>input latency</strong>—The interval between when an external sound is presented to the device and
+when an application reads the corresponding frame of PCM-coded data.
+ <li> <strong>cold input latency</strong>—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.
+ <li> <strong>continuous input latency</strong>—The input latency for subsequent frames, while the device is capturing audio.
+ <li> <strong>cold output jitter</strong>—The variance among separate measurements of cold output latency values.
+ <li> <strong>cold input jitter</strong>—The variance among separate measurements of cold input latency values.
+ <li> <strong>continuous round-trip latency</strong>—The sum of continuous input latency plus continuous output latency plus 5
+milliseconds.
+ <li> <strong>OpenSL ES PCM buffer queue API</strong>—The set of PCM-related OpenSL ES APIs within Android NDK; see
+NDK_root/docs/opensles/index.html.
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations that declare android.hardware.audio.output SHOULD meet
+or exceed these audio output requirements:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> cold output latency of 100 milliseconds or less
+ <li> continuous output latency of 45 milliseconds or less
+ <li> minimize the cold output jitter
+</ul>
+
+<p>If a device implementation meets the requirements of this section after any
+initial calibration when using the OpenSL ES PCM buffer queue API, for
+continuous output latency and cold output latency over at least one supported
+audio output device, it MAY report support for low-latency audio, by reporting
+the feature android.hardware.audio.low_latency via the
+android.content.pm.PackageManager class [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html">Resources, 53</a>]. Conversely, if the device implementation does not meet these requirements it
+MUST NOT report support for low-latency audio.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations that include android.hardware.microphone SHOULD meet
+these input audio requirements:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> cold input latency of 100 milliseconds or less
+ <li> continuous input latency of 30 milliseconds or less
+ <li> continuous round-trip latency of 50 milliseconds or less
+ <li> minimize the cold input jitter
+</ul>
+
+<h2 id=5_7_network_protocols>5.7. Network Protocols</h2>
+
+
+<p>Devices MUST support the media network protocols for audio and video playback
+as specified in the Android SDK documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html">Resources, 50</a>]. Specifically, devices MUST support the following media network protocols:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> RTSP (RTP, SDP)
+ <li> HTTP(S) progressive streaming
+ <li> HTTP(S) Live Streaming draft protocol, Version 3 [<a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-pantos-http-live-streaming-03">Resources, 54</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<h2 id=5_8_secure_media>5.8. Secure Media</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations that support secure video output and are capable of
+supporting secure surfaces MUST declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE. Device
+implementations that declare support for Display.FLAG_SECURE, if they support a
+wireless display protocol, MUST secure the link with a cryptographically strong
+mechanism such as HDCP 2.x or higher for Miracast wireless displays. Similarly
+if they support a wired external display, the device implementations MUST
+support HDCP 1.2 or higher. Android Television device implementations MUST
+support HDCP 2.2 for devices supporting 4K resolution and HDCP 1.4 or above for
+lower resolutions. The upstream Android open source implementation includes
+support for wireless (Miracast) and wired (HDMI) displays that satisfies this

+
+
+<h2 id=6_1_developer_tools>6.1. Developer Tools</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST support the Android Developer Tools provided in the
+Android SDK. Android compatible devices MUST be compatible with:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>Android Debug Bridge (adb)</strong> [<a href="http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html">Resources, 55</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST support all adb functions as documented in the
+Android SDK including dumpsys [<a href="https://source.android.com/devices/tech/input/dumpsys.html">Resources, 56</a>]. The device-side adb daemon MUST be inactive by default and there MUST be a
+user-accessible mechanism to turn on the Android Debug Bridge. If a device
+implementation omits USB peripheral mode, it MUST implement the Android Debug
+Bridge via local-area network (such as Ethernet or 802.11). </p>
+
+<p>Android includes support for secure adb. Secure adb enables adb on known
+authenticated hosts. Device implementations MUST support secure adb.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>Dalvik Debug Monitor Service (ddms)</strong> [<a href="http://developer.android.com/tools/debugging/ddms.html">Resources, 57</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST support all ddms features as documented in the
+Android SDK. As ddms uses adb, support for ddms SHOULD be inactive by default,
+but MUST be supported whenever the user has activated the Android Debug Bridge,
+as above.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>Monkey</strong> [<a href="http://developer.android.com/tools/help/monkey.html">Resources, 58</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST include the Monkey framework, and make it available
+for applications to use.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>SysTrace</strong> [<a href="http://developer.android.com/tools/help/systrace.html">Resources, 59</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST support systrace tool as documented in the Android
+SDK. Systrace must be inactive by default, and there MUST be a user-accessible
+mechanism to turn on Systrace.</p>
+
+<p>Most Linux-based systems and Apple Macintosh systems recognize Android devices
+using the standard Android SDK tools, without additional support; however
+Microsoft Windows systems typically require a driver for new Android devices.
+(For instance, new vendor IDs and sometimes new device IDs require custom USB
+drivers for Windows systems.) If a device implementation is unrecognized by the
+adb tool as provided in the standard Android SDK, device implementers MUST
+provide Windows drivers allowing developers to connect to the device using the
+adb protocol. These drivers MUST be provided for Windows XP, Windows Vista,
+Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 9 in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.</p>
+
+<h2 id=6_2_developer_options>6.2. Developer Options</h2>
+
+
+<p>Android includes support for developers to configure application
+development-related settings. Device implementations MUST honor the
+android.settings.APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS intent to show application
+development-related settings [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.html#ACTION_APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS">Resources, 60</a>]. 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 <strong>Settings</strong> > <strong>About Device</strong> > <strong>Build Number</strong> menu item. Device implementations MUST provide a consistent experience for
+Developer Options. Specifically, device implementations MUST hide Developer
+Options by default and MUST provide a mechanism to enable Developer Options
+that is consistent with the upstream Android implementation.</p>
+
+<h1 id=7_hardware_compatibility>7. Hardware Compatibility</h1>
+
+
+<p>If a device includes a particular hardware component that has a corresponding
+API for third-party developers, 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:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Complete class definitions (as documented by the SDK) for the component's APIs
+MUST still be presented.
+ <li> The API's behaviors MUST be implemented as no-ops in some reasonable fashion.
+ <li> API methods MUST return null values where permitted by the SDK documentation.
+ <li> API methods MUST return no-op implementations of classes where null values are
+not permitted by the SDK documentation.
+ <li> API methods MUST NOT throw exceptions not documented by the SDK documentation.
+</ul>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST consistently report accurate hardware configuration
+information via the getSystemAvailableFeatures() and hasSystemFeature(String)
+methods on the android.content.pm.PackageManager class for the same build
+fingerprint. [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html">Resources, 53]</a></p>
+
+<h2 id=7_1_display_and_graphics>7.1. Display and Graphics</h2>
+
+
+<p>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 [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html">Resources, 61</a>]. Devices MUST properly implement these APIs and behaviors, as detailed in
+this section.</p>
+
+<p>The units referenced by the requirements in this section are defined as
+follows:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>physical diagonal size</strong>—The distance in inches between two opposing corners of the illuminated portion
+of the display.
+ <li> <strong>dots per inch (dpi)</strong>—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.
+ <li> <strong>aspect ratio</strong>—The ratio of the longer dimension of the screen to the shorter dimension. For
+example, a display of 480x854 pixels would be 854 / 480 = 1.779, or roughly
+"16:9".
+ <li> <strong>density-independent pixel (dp)</strong>—The virtual pixel unit normalized to a 160 dpi screen, calculated as: pixels =
+dps * (density / 160).
+</ul>

+</td>
+ </tr>
+</table>
+
+
+<p>The Android UI framework supports a variety of different screen sizes, and
+allows applications to query the device screen size (aka "screen layout") via
+android.content.res.Configuration.screenLayout with the SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_MASK.
+Device implementations MUST report the correct screen size as defined in the
+Android SDK documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html">Resources, 61</a>] and determined by the upstream Android platform. Specifically, device
+implementations MUST report the correct screen size according to the following
+logical density-independent pixel (dp) screen dimensions.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Devices MUST have screen sizes of at least 426 dp x 320 dp ('small'), unless it
+is an Android Watch device.
+ <li> Devices that report screen size 'normal' MUST have screen sizes of at least 480
+dp x 320 dp.
+ <li> Devices that report screen size 'large' MUST have screen sizes of at least 640
+dp x 480 dp.
+ <li> Devices that report screen size 'xlarge' MUST have screen sizes of at least 960
+dp x 720 dp.
+</ul>
+
+<p>In addition, </p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Android Watch devices MUST have a screen with the physical diagonal size in the
+range from 1.1 to 2.5 inches
+ <li> Other types of Android device implementations, with a physically integrated
+screen, MUST have a screen at least 2.5 inches in physical diagonal size.
+</ul>
+
+<p>Devices MUST NOT change their reported screen size at any time.</p>
+
+<p>Applications optionally indicate which screen sizes they support via the
+<supports-screens> attribute in the AndroidManifest.xml file. Device
+implementations MUST correctly honor applications' stated support for small,
+normal, large, and xlarge screens, as described in the Android SDK
+documentation.</p>

+
+<p>The screen aspect ratio MUST be a value from 1.3333 (4:3) to 1.86 (roughly
+16:9), but Android Watch devices MAY have an aspect ratio of 1.0 (1:1) because
+such a device implementation will use a UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH as the
+android.content.res.Configuration.uiMode.</p>
+
+<h4 id=7_1_1_3_screen_density>7.1.1.3. Screen Density</h4>
+
+
+<p>The Android UI framework defines a set of standard logical densities to help
+application developers target application resources. Device implementations
+MUST report only one of the following logical Android framework densities
+through the android.util.DisplayMetrics APIs, and MUST execute applications at
+this standard density and MUST NOT change the value at at any time for the
+default display.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> 120 dpi (ldpi)
+ <li> 160 dpi (mdpi)
+ <li> 213 dpi (tvdpi)
+ <li> 240 dpi (hdpi)
+ <li> 320 dpi (xhdpi)
+ <li> 400 dpi (400dpi)
+ <li> 480 dpi (xxhdpi)
+ <li> 560 dpi (560dpi)
+ <li> 640 dpi (xxxhdpi)
+</ul>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_1_2_display_metrics>7.1.2. Display Metrics</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST report correct values for all display metrics
+defined in android.util.DisplayMetrics [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/util/DisplayMetrics.html">Resources, 62</a>] and MUST report the same values regardless of whether the embedded or
+external screen is used as the default display.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_1_3_screen_orientation>7.1.3. Screen Orientation</h3>
+
+
+<p>Devices MUST report which screen orientations they support
+(android.hardware.screen.portrait and/or android.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
+report android.hardware.screen.landscape.</p>
+
+<p>Devices that report both screen orientations 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. Device implementations MAY select either portrait or landscape
+orientation as the default.</p>
+
+<p>Devices 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.</p>
+
+<p>Devices MUST NOT change the reported screen size or density when changing
+orientation.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_1_4_2d_and_3d_graphics_acceleration>7.1.4. 2D and 3D Graphics Acceleration</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST support both OpenGL ES 1.0 and 2.0, as embodied and
+detailed in the Android SDK documentations. Device implementations SHOULD
+support OpenGL ES 3.0 or 3.1 on devices capable of supporting it. Device
+implementations MUST also support Android RenderScript, as detailed in the
+Android SDK documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/renderscript/">Resources, 63</a>].</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST also correctly identify themselves as supporting
+OpenGL ES 1.0, OpenGL ES 2.0, OpenGL ES 3.0 or OpenGL 3.1. That is:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> The managed APIs (such as via the GLES10.getString()method MUST report support
+for OpenGL ES 1.0 and OpenGL ES 2.0.
+ <li> The native C/C++ OpenGL APIs (APIs available to apps via libGLES_v1CM.so,
+libGLES_v2.so, or libEGL.so) MUST report support for OpenGL ES 1.0 and OpenGL
+ES 2.0.
+ <li> Device implementations that declare support for OpenGL ES 3.0 or 3.1 MUST
+support the corresponding managed APIs and include support for native C/C++
+APIs. On device implementations that declare support for OpenGL ES 3.0 or 3.1,
+libGLESv2.so MUST export the corresponding function symbols in addition to the
+OpenGL ES 2.0 function symbols.
+</ul>
+
+<p>In addition to OpenGL ES 3.1, Android provides an extension pack with Java
+interfaces [<a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/android/opengl/GLES31Ext.html">Resources, 64</a>] and native support for advanced graphics functionality such as tessellation
+and the ASTC texture compression format. Android device implementations MAY
+support this extension pack, and—only if fully implemented—MUST identify the
+support through the android.hardware.opengles.aep feature flag.</p>
+
+<p>Also, device implementations MAY implement any desired OpenGL ES extensions.
+However, device implementations MUST report via the OpenGL ES managed and
+native APIs all extension strings that they do support, and conversely MUST NOT
+report extension strings that they do not support.</p>
+
+<p>Note that Android includes support for applications to optionally specify that
+they require specific OpenGL texture compression formats. These formats are
+typically vendor-specific. Device implementations are not required by Android
+to implement any specific texture compression format. However, they SHOULD
+accurately report any texture compression formats that they do support, via the
+getString() method in the OpenGL API.</p>
+
+<p>Android includes a mechanism for applications to declare that they want to
+enable hardware acceleration for 2D graphics at the Application, Activity,
+Window, or View level through the use of a manifest tag
+android:hardwareAccelerated or direct API calls [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/graphics/hardware-accel.html">Resources, 65</a>].</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST enable hardware acceleration by default, and MUST
+disable hardware acceleration if the developer so requests by setting
+android:hardwareAccelerated="false" or disabling hardware acceleration directly
+through the Android View APIs.</p>
+
+<p>In addition, device implementations MUST exhibit behavior consistent with the
+Android SDK documentation on hardware acceleration [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/graphics/hardware-accel.html">Resources, 65</a>].</p>
+
+<p>Android includes a TextureView object that lets developers directly integrate
+hardware-accelerated OpenGL ES textures as rendering targets in a UI hierarchy.
+Device implementations MUST support the TextureView API, and MUST exhibit
+consistent behavior with the upstream Android implementation.</p>
+
+<p>Android includes support for EGL_ANDROID_RECORDABLE, an EGLConfig attribute
+that indicates whether the EGLConfig supports rendering to an ANativeWindow
+that records images to a video. Device implementations MUST support
+EGL_ANDROID_RECORDABLE extension [<a href="https://www.khronos.org/registry/egl/extensions/ANDROID/EGL_ANDROID_recordable.txt">Resources, 66</a>].</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_1_5_legacy_application_compatibility_mode>7.1.5. Legacy Application Compatibility Mode</h3>
+
+
+<p>Android specifies a "compatibility mode" in which the framework operates in a
+'normal' screen size equivalent (320dp width) mode for the benefit of legacy
+applications not developed for old versions of Android that pre-date
+screen-size independence. Device implementations MUST include support for
+legacy application compatibility mode as implemented by the upstream Android
+open source code. That is, device implementations MUST NOT alter the triggers
+or thresholds at which compatibility mode is activated, and MUST NOT alter the
+behavior of the compatibility mode itself.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_1_6_screen_technology>7.1.6. Screen Technology</h3>
+
+
+<p>The Android platform includes APIs that allow applications to render rich
+graphics to the display. Devices MUST support all of these APIs as defined by
+the Android SDK unless specifically allowed in this document. </p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Devices MUST support displays capable of rendering 16-bit color graphics and
+SHOULD support displays capable of 24-bit color graphics.
+ <li> Devices MUST support displays capable of rendering animations.
+ <li> The display technology used MUST have a pixel aspect ratio (PAR) between 0.9
+and 1.15. That is, the pixel aspect ratio MUST be near square (1.0) with a 10 ~
+15% tolerance.
+</ul>
+
+<h3 id=7_1_7_external_displays>7.1.7. External Displays</h3>
+
+
+<p>Android includes support for secondary display to enable media sharing
+capabilities and developer APIs for accessing external displays. If a device
+supports an external display either via a wired, wireless, or an embedded
+additional display connection then the device implementation MUST implement the
+display manager API as described in the Android SDK documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/display/DisplayManager.html">Resources, 67</a>].</p>

+ <li> All other types of device implementations MUST provide the Home and Back
+functions.
+</ul>
+
+<p>These functions MAY be implemented via dedicated physical buttons (such as
+mechanical or capacitive touch buttons), or MAY be implemented using dedicated
+software keys on a distinct portion of the screen, gestures, touch panel, etc.
+Android supports both implementations. All of these functions MUST be

+visible.</p>
+
+<p>Recents function, if provided, MUST have a visible button or icon unless hidden

+or when the uiMode UI_MODE_TYPE_MASK is set to UI_MODE_TYPE_WATCH.</p>
+
+<p>The Menu function is deprecated in favor of action bar since Android 4.0.
+Therefore the new device implementations shipping with Android 5.0 MUST NOT
+implement a dedicated physical button for the Menu function. Older device

+ <li> MUST display the action overflow button on the action bar when it is visible
+and the resulting action overflow menu popup is not empty. For a device

+ <li> MUST NOT modify the position of the action overflow popup displayed by
+selecting the overflow button in the action bar
+ <li> MAY render the action overflow popup at a modified position on the screen when
+it is displayed by selecting the physical menu button
+</ul>
+
+<p>For backwards compatibility, device implementations MUST make the Menu function
+available to applications when targetSdkVersion <= 10, either by a physical
+button, a software key, or gestures. This Menu function should be presented
+unless hidden together with other navigation functions.</p>
+
+<p>Android supports Assist action [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_ASSIST">Resources, 69</a>]. Android device implementations except for Android Watch devices MUST make
+the Assist action available to the user at all times when running applications.
+The Assist action SHOULD be implemented as a long-press on the Home button or a

+<p>Android includes support for a variety of touchscreens, touch pads, and fake
+touch input devices. Touchscreen based device implementations are associated
+with a display [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/tech/input/touch-devices.html">Resources, 70</a>] 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.
+In contrast, a 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 5.0 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. Device implementations that declare the fake touch feature MUST

+<h3 id=7_2_7_remote_control>7.2.7. Remote Control</h3>
+
+
+<p>Android Television device implementations SHOULD provide a remote control to
+allow users to access the TV interface. The remote control MAY be a physical
+remote or can be a software-based remote that is accessible from a mobile phone
+or tablet. The remote control MUST meet the requirements defined below.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>Search affordance</strong>—Device implementations MUST fire KEYCODE_SEARCH when the user invokes voice
+search either on the physical or software-based remote.
+ <li> <strong>Navigation</strong>—All Android Television remotes MUST include Back, Home, and Select buttons and
+support for D-pad events [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html">Resources, 72</a>].
+</ul>
+
+<h2 id=7_3_sensors>7.3. Sensors</h2>
+
+
+<p>Android includes APIs for accessing a variety of sensor types. Devices
+implementations generally MAY omit these sensors, as provided for in the
+following subsections. If a device includes a particular sensor type that has a
+corresponding API for third-party developers, the device implementation MUST
+implement that API as described in the Android SDK documentation and the
+Android Open Source documentation on sensors [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/sensors">Resources, 73</a>]. For example, device implementations:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST accurately report the presence or absence of sensors per the
+android.content.pm.PackageManager class [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html">Resources, 53]</a>
+ <li> MUST return an accurate list of supported sensors via the
+SensorManager.getSensorList() and similar methods
+ <li> MUST behave reasonably for all other sensor APIs (for example, by returning
+true or false as appropriate when applications attempt to register listeners,
+not calling sensor listeners when the corresponding sensors are not present;
+etc.)
+ <li> MUST report all sensor measurements using the relevant International System of
+Units (metric) values for each sensor type as defined in the Android SDK
+documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/SensorEvent.html">Resources, 74</a>]
+ <li> SHOULD report the event time in nanoseconds as defined in the Android SDK
+documentation, representing the time the event happened and synchronized with
+the SystemClock.elapsedRealtimeNano() clock. Existing and new Android devices
+are <strong>very strongly encouraged</strong> to meet these requirement so they will be able to upgrade to the future
+platform releases where this might become a REQUIRED component. The
+synchronization error SHOULD be below 100 milliseconds [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/SensorEvent.html#timestamp">Resources, 75</a>].
+</ul>
+
+<p>The list above is not comprehensive; the documented behavior of the Android SDK
+and the Android Open Source Documentations on Sensors [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/sensors">Resources, 73</a>] is to be considered authoritative.</p>
+
+<p>Some sensor types are composite, meaning they can be derived from data provided
+by one or more other sensors. (Examples include the orientation sensor, and the
+linear acceleration sensor.) Device implementations SHOULD implement these
+sensor types, when they include the prerequisite physical sensors as described
+in [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/sensors/composite_sensors.html">Resources, 76</a>]. If a device implementation includes a composite sensor it MUST implement the
+sensor as described in the Android Open Source documentation on composite
+sensors [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/sensors/composite_sensors.html">Resources, 76</a>].</p>
+
+<p>Some Android sensor supports a "continuous" trigger mode, which returns data
+continuously [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/sensors/base_triggers.html#continuous">Resources, 77</a>]. For any API indicated by the Android SDK documentation to be a continuous
+sensor, device implementations MUST continuously provide periodic data samples
+that SHOULD have a jitter below 3%, where jitter is defined as the standard
+deviation of the difference of the reported timestamp values between
+consecutive events.</p>
+
+<p>Note that the device implementations MUST ensure that the sensor event stream
+MUST NOT prevent the device CPU from entering a suspend state or waking up from
+a suspend state.</p>
+
+<p>Finally, when several sensors are activated, the power consumption SHOULD NOT
+exceed the sum of the individual sensor’s reported power consumption.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_3_1_accelerometer>7.3.1. Accelerometer</h3>

+ <li> SHOULD be temperature compensated

+ <li> SHOULD implement the TYPE_SIGNIFICANT_MOTION, TYPE_TILT_DETECTOR,
+TYPE_STEP_DETECTOR, TYPE_STEP_COUNTER composite sensors as described in the
+Android SDK document. Existing and new Android devices are <strong>very strongly encouraged</strong> to implement the TYPE_SIGNIFICANT_MOTION composite sensor. If any of these
+sensors are implemented, the sum of their power consumption MUST always be less
+than 4 mW and SHOULD each be below 2 mW and 0.5 mW for when the device is in a
+dynamic or static condition.
+ <li> If a gyroscope sensor is included, MUST implement the TYPE_GRAVITY and
+TYPE_LINEAR_ACCELERATION composite sensors and SHOULD implement the
+TYPE_GAME_ROTATION_VECTOR composite sensor. Existing and new Android devices
+are strongly encouraged to implement the TYPE_GAME_ROTATION_VECTOR sensor.

+ <li> MUST have a resolution equal or denser than 0.6 μT and SHOULD have a resolution
+equal or denser than 0.2 μT
+ <li> SHOULD be temperature compensated
+ <li> MUST support online calibration and compensation of the hard iron bias, and
+preserve the compensation parameters between device reboots
+ <li> MUST have the soft iron compensation applied—the calibration can be done either
+while in use or during the production of the device
+ <li> SHOULD have a standard deviation, calculated on a per axis basis on samples
+collected over a period of at least 3 seconds at the fastest sampling rate, no

+ <li> MUST have a variance no greater than 1e-7 rad^2 / s^2 per Hz (variance per Hz,
+or rad^2 / s). The variance is allowed to vary with the sampling rate, but must

+
+
+<p>"Telephony" as used by the Android APIs and this document refers specifically

+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 MUST NOT report the android.hardware.telephony
+feature or any subfeatures, regardless of whether they use a cellular network
+for data connectivity.</p>
+
+<p>Android MAY be used on devices that do not include telephony hardware. That is,
+Android is compatible with devices that are not phones. However, if a device

+<h3 id=7_4_4_near-field_communications>7.4.4. Near-Field Communications</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD include a transceiver and related hardware for
+Near-Field Communications (NFC). If a device implementation does include NFC
+hardware and plans to make it available to third-party apps, then it:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST report the android.hardware.nfc feature from the
+android.content.pm.PackageManager.hasSystemFeature() method [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html">Resources, 53</a>]
+ <li> MUST be capable of reading and writing NDEF messages via the following NFC

+ <li> IsoDep (ISO 14443-4)
+ <li> NFC Forum Tag Types 1, 2, 3, 4 (defined by the NFC Forum)
+ </ul>
+ <li> SHOULD be capable of reading and writing NDEF messages via the following NFC
+standards. Note that while the NFC standards below are stated as SHOULD, the
+Compatibility Definition for a future version is planned to change these to
+MUST. These standards are optional in this version but will be required in
+future versions. Existing and new devices that run this version of Android are <strong>very strongly encouraged</strong> to meet these requirements now so they will be able to upgrade to the future
+platform releases.
+ <ul>
+ <li> NfcV (ISO 15693)
+ </ul>
+ <li> MUST be capable of transmitting and receiving data via the following
+peer-to-peer standards and protocols:
+ <ul>
+ <li> ISO 18092
+ <li> LLCP 1.0 (defined by the NFC Forum)
+ <li> SDP 1.0 (defined by the NFC Forum)
+ <li> NDEF Push Protocol [<a href="http://static.googleusercontent.com/media/source.android.com/en/us/compatibility/ndef-push-protocol.pdf">Resources, 84</a>]
+ <li> SNEP 1.0 (defined by the NFC Forum)
+ </ul>
+ <li> MUST include support for Android Beam [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/nfc/nfc.html">Resources, 85</a>]:
+ <ul>
+ <li> MUST implement the SNEP default server. Valid NDEF messages received by the
+default SNEP server MUST be dispatched to applications using the
+android.nfc.ACTION_NDEF_DISCOVERED intent. Disabling Android Beam in settings
+MUST NOT disable dispatch of incoming NDEF message.
+ <li> MUST honor the android.settings.NFCSHARING_SETTINGS intent to show NFC sharing
+settings [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.html#ACTION_NFCSHARING_SETTINGS">Resources, 86</a>]
+ <li> MUST implement the NPP server. Messages received by the NPP server MUST be
+processed the same way as the SNEP default server.
+ <li> MUST implement a SNEP client and attempt to send outbound P2P NDEF to the
+default SNEP server when Android Beam is enabled. If no default SNEP server is
+found then the client MUST attempt to send to an NPP server.
+ <li> MUST allow foreground activities to set the outbound P2P NDEF message using
+android.nfc.NfcAdapter.setNdefPushMessage, and
+android.nfc.NfcAdapter.setNdefPushMessageCallback, and
+android.nfc.NfcAdapter.enableForegroundNdefPush
+ <li> SHOULD use a gesture or on-screen confirmation, such as 'Touch to Beam', before

+ <li> SHOULD enable Android Beam by default and MUST be able to send and receive
+using Android Beam, even when another proprietary NFC P2p mode is turned on
+ <li> MUST support NFC Connection handover to Bluetooth when the device supports
+Bluetooth Object Push Profile. Device implementations MUST support connection
+handover to Bluetooth when using android.nfc.NfcAdapter.setBeamPushUris, by
+implementing the "Connection Handover version 1.2" [<a href="http://www.nfc-forum.org/specs/spec_list/#conn_handover">Resources, 87</a>] and "Bluetooth Secure Simple Pairing Using NFC version 1.0" [<a href="http://members.nfc-forum.org/apps/group_public/download.php/18688/NFCForum-AD-BTSSP_1_1.pdf">Resources, 88</a>] specs from the NFC Forum. Such an implementation MUST implement the handover
+LLCP service with service name "urn:nfc:sn:handover" for exchanging the
+handover request/select records over NFC, and it MUST use the Bluetooth Object
+Push Profile for the actual Bluetooth data transfer. For legacy reasons (to
+remain compatible with Android 4.1 devices), the implementation SHOULD still
+accept SNEP GET requests for exchanging the handover request/select records
+over NFC. However an implementation itself SHOULD NOT send SNEP GET requests
+for performing connection handover.
+ </ul>
+ <li> MUST poll for all supported technologies while in NFC discovery mode
+ <li> SHOULD be in NFC discovery mode while the device is awake with the screen
+active and the lock-screen unlocked
+</ul>
+</ul>
+
+<p>(Note that publicly available links are not available for the JIS, ISO, and NFC
+Forum specifications cited above.)</p>
+
+<p>Android 5.0 includes support for NFC Host Card Emulation (HCE) mode. If a
+device implementation does include an NFC controller capable of HCE and
+Application ID (AID) routing, then it:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST report the android.hardware.nfc.hce feature constant
+ <li> MUST support NFC HCE APIs as defined in the Android SDK [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/nfc/hce.html">Resources, 10</a>]
+</ul>
+
+<p>Additionally, device implementations MAY include reader/writer support for the
+following MIFARE technologies.</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MIFARE Classic
+ <li> MIFARE Ultralight
+ <li> NDEF on MIFARE Classic
+</ul>
+
+<p>Note that Android includes APIs for these MIFARE types. If a device
+implementation supports MIFARE in the reader/writer role, it:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST implement the corresponding Android APIs as documented by the Android SDK
+ <li> MUST report the feature com.nxp.mifare from the
+android.content.pm.PackageManager.hasSystemFeature() meth<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html">od [Resources, 53]</a>. Note that this is not a standard Android feature and as such does not appear
+as a constant on the PackageManager class.
+ <li> MUST NOT implement the corresponding Android APIs nor report the com.nxp.mifare
+feature unless it also implements general NFC support as described in this
+section
+</ul>
+
+<p>If a device implementation does not include NFC hardware, it MUST NOT declare
+the android.hardware.nfc feature from the
+android.content.pm.PackageManager.hasSystemFeature() method [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html">Resources, 53]</a>, and MUST implement the Android NFC API as a no-op.</p>
+
+<p>As the classes android.nfc.NdefMessage and android.nfc.NdefRecord represent a
+protocol-independent data representation format, device implementations MUST
+implement these APIs even if they do not include support for NFC or declare the
+android.hardware.nfc feature.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_4_5_minimum_network_capability>7.4.5. Minimum Network Capability</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST include support for one or more forms of data
+networking. Specifically, device implementations MUST include support for at
+least one data standard capable of 200Kbit/sec or greater. Examples of
+technologies that satisfy this requirement include EDGE, HSPA, EV-DO, 802.11g,
+Ethernet, Bluetooth PAN, etc.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations where a physical networking standard (such as Ethernet)
+is the primary data connection SHOULD also include support for at least one
+common wireless data standard, such as 802.11 (Wi-Fi).</p>
+
+<p>Devices MAY implement more than one form of data connectivity.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_4_6_sync_settings>7.4.6. Sync Settings</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST have the master auto-sync setting on by default so
+that the method getMasterSyncAutomatically() returns "true" [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/ContentResolver.html">Resources, 89</a>].</p>
+
+<h2 id=7_5_cameras>7.5. Cameras</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD include a rear-facing camera and MAY include a
+front-facing camera. A rear-facing camera is a camera located on the side of
+the device opposite the display; that is, it images scenes on the far side of
+the device, like a traditional camera. A front-facing camera is a camera
+located on the same side of the device as the display; that is, a camera
+typically used to image the user, such as for video conferencing and similar
+applications.</p>
+
+<p>If a device implementation includes at least one camera, it SHOULD be possible
+for an application to simultaneously allocate 3 bitmaps equal to the size of
+the images produced by the largest-resolution camera sensor on the device.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_5_1_rear-facing_camera>7.5.1. Rear-Facing Camera</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD include a rear-facing camera. If a device
+implementation includes at least one rear-facing camera, it:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST report the feature flag android.hardware.camera and
+android.hardware.camera.any
+ <li> MUST have a resolution of at least 2 megapixels
+ <li> SHOULD have either hardware auto-focus or software auto-focus implemented in
+the camera driver (transparent to application software)
+ <li> MAY have fixed-focus or EDOF (extended depth of field) hardware
+ <li> MAY include a flash. If the Camera includes a flash, the flash lamp MUST NOT be
+lit while an android.hardware.Camera.PreviewCallback instance has been
+registered on a Camera preview surface, unless the application has explicitly
+enabled the flash by enabling the FLASH_MODE_AUTO or FLASH_MODE_ON attributes
+of a Camera.Parameters object. Note that this constraint does not apply to the
+device's built-in system camera application, but only to third-party
+applications using Camera.PreviewCallback.
+</ul>
+
+<h3 id=7_5_2_front-facing_camera>7.5.2. Front-Facing Camera</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MAY include a front-facing camera. If a device
+implementation includes at least one front-facing camera, it:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST report the feature flag android.hardware.camera.any and
+android.hardware.camera.front
+ <li> MUST have a resolution of at least VGA (640x480 pixels)
+ <li> MUST NOT use a front-facing camera as the default for the Camera API. The
+camera API in Android has specific support for front-facing cameras and device
+implementations MUST NOT configure the API to to treat a front-facing camera as
+the default rear-facing camera, even if it is the only camera on the device.
+ <li> MAY include features (such as auto-focus, flash, etc.) available to rear-facing
+cameras as described in <a href="#heading=h.v6dmzvarwqkm">section 7.5.1</a>
+ <li> MUST horizontally reflect (i.e. mirror) the stream displayed by an app in a
+CameraPreview, as follows:
+ <ul>
+ <li> If the device implementation is capable of being rotated by user (such as
+automatically via an accelerometer or manually via user input), the camera
+preview MUST be mirrored horizontally relative to the device's current
+orientation.
+ <li> If the current application has explicitly requested that the Camera display be
+rotated via a call to the android.hardware.Camera.setDisplayOrientation()[<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.html#setDisplayOrientation(int)">Resources, 90</a>] method, the camera preview MUST be mirrored horizontally relative to the
+orientation specified by the application.
+ <li> Otherwise, the preview MUST be mirrored along the device's default horizontal
+axis.
+ </ul>
+ <li> MUST mirror the image displayed by the postview in the same manner as the
+camera preview image stream. If the device implementation does not support
+postview, this requirement obviously does not apply.
+ <li> MUST NOT mirror the final captured still image or video streams returned to
+application callbacks or committed to media storage
+</ul>
+
+<h3 id=7_5_3_external_camera>7.5.3. External Camera</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations with USB host mode MAY include support for an external
+camera that connects to the USB port. If a device includes support for an
+external camera, it:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST declare the platform feature android.hardware.camera.external and
+android.hardware camera.any
+ <li> MUST support USB Video Class (UVC 1.0 or higher)
+ <li> MAY support multiple cameras
+</ul>
+
+<p>Video compression (such as MJPEG) support is RECOMMENDED to enable transfer of
+high-quality unencoded streams (i.e. raw or independently compressed picture
+streams). Camera-based video encoding MAY be supported. If so, a simultaneous
+unencoded/ MJPEG stream (QVGA or greater resolution) MUST be accessible to the
+device implementation. </p>
+
+<h3 id=7_5_4_camera_api_behavior>7.5.4. Camera API Behavior</h3>
+
+
+<p>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. </p>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST implement the following behaviors for the
+camera-related APIs, for all available cameras:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> If an application has never called
+android.hardware.Camera.Parameters.setPreviewFormat(int), then the device MUST
+use android.hardware.PixelFormat.YCbCr_420_SP for preview data provided to
+application callbacks.
+ <li> If an application registers an android.hardware.Camera.PreviewCallback instance
+and the system calls the onPreviewFrame() method when the preview format is
+YCbCr_420_SP, the data in the byte[] passed into onPreviewFrame() must further
+be in the NV21 encoding format. That is, NV21 MUST be the default.
+ <li> For android.hardware.Camera, device implementations MUST support the YV12
+format (as denoted by the android.graphics.ImageFormat.YV12 constant) for
+camera previews for both front- and rear-facing cameras. (The hardware video
+encoder and camera may use any native pixel format, but the device
+implementation MUST support conversion to YV12.)
+ <li> For android.hardware.camera2, device implementations must support the
+android.hardware.ImageFormat.YUV_420_888 and android.hardware.ImageFormat.JPEG
+formats as outputs through the android.media.ImageReader API.
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST still implement the full Camera API included in the
+Android SDK documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.html">Resources, 91</a>], 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.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST recognize and honor each parameter name defined as
+a constant on the android.hardware.Camera.Parameters class, if the underlying
+hardware supports the feature. If the device hardware does not support a
+feature, the API must behave as documented. Conversely, device implementations
+MUST NOT honor or recognize string constants passed to the
+android.hardware.Camera.setParameters() method other than those documented as
+constants on the android.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 parameter Camera.SCENE_MODE_HDR [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.Parameters.html">Resources, 92</a>].</p>
+
+<p>Because not all device implementations can fully support all the features of
+the android.hardware.camera2 API, device implementations MUST report the proper
+level of support with the android.info.supportedHardwareLevel property as
+described in the Android SDK [<a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/camera2/CameraCharacteristics.html#INFO_SUPPORTED_HARDWARE_LEVEL">Resources, 93]</a> and report the appropriate framework feature flags [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/camera/versioning.html">Resources, 94]</a>. </p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST also declare its Individual camera capabilities of
+android.hardware.camera2 via the android.request.availableCapabilities property
+and declare the appropriate feature flags [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/camera/versioning.html">Resources, 94]</a>; a device must define the feature flag if any of its attached camera devices
+supports the feature. </p>
+
+<p>Device implementations 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.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations 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.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_5_5_camera_orientation>7.5.5. Camera Orientation</h3>
+
+
+<p>Both front- and rear-facing cameras, if present, 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.</p>

+location.</p>
+
+<h3 id=7_6_2_application_shared_storage>7.6.2. Application Shared Storage</h3>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST offer shared storage for applications also often
+referred as “shared external storage”. </p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST be configured with shared storage mounted by
+default, "out of the box". If the shared storage is not mounted on the Linux
+path /sdcard, then the device MUST include a Linux symbolic link from /sdcard
+to the actual mount point.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MAY have hardware for user-accessible removable storage,
+such as a Secure Digital (SD) card slot. If this slot is used to satisfy the
+shared storage requirement, the device implementation:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST implement a toast or pop-up user interface warning the user when there is
+no SD card
+ <li> MUST include a FAT-formatted SD card 1GB in size or larger OR show on the box
+and other material available at time of purchase that the SD card has to be
+separately purchased
+ <li> MUST mount the SD card by default
+</ul>
+
+<p>Alternatively, device implementations MAY allocate internal (non-removable)
+storage as shared storage for apps as included in the upstream Android Open
+Source Project; device implementations SHOULD use this configuration and
+software implementation. If a device implementation uses internal
+(non-removable) storage to satisfy the shared storage requirement, that storage
+MUST be 1GB in size or larger and mounted on /sdcard (or /sdcard MUST be a
+symbolic link to the physical location if it is mounted elsewhere).</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST enforce as documented the
+android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission on this shared storage.
+Shared storage MUST otherwise be writable by any application that obtains that
+permission.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations that include multiple shared storage paths (such as both
+an SD card slot and shared internal storage) MUST NOT allow Android
+applications to write to the secondary external storage, except for their
+package-specific directories on the secondary external storage, but SHOULD
+expose content from both storage paths transparently through Android's media
+scanner service and android.provider.MediaStore.</p>
+
+<p>Regardless of the form of shared storage used, device implementations MUST
+provide some mechanism to access the contents of shared storage from a host
+computer, such as USB mass storage (UMS) or Media Transfer Protocol (MTP).
+Device implementations MAY use USB mass storage, but SHOULD use Media Transfer
+Protocol. If the device implementation supports Media Transfer Protocol, it:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> SHOULD be compatible with the reference Android MTP host, Android File Transfer
+[<a href="http://www.android.com/filetransfer">Resources, 96</a>]
+ <li> SHOULD report a USB device class of 0x00
+ <li> SHOULD report a USB interface name of 'MTP'
+</ul>
+
+<p>If the device implementation lacks USB ports, it MUST provide a host computer
+with access to the contents of shared storage by some other means, such as a
+network file system.</p>
+
+<h2 id=7_7_usb>7.7. USB</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD support USB peripheral mode and SHOULD support
+USB host mode.</p>
+
+<p>If a device implementation includes a USB port supporting peripheral mode:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> The port MUST be connectable to a USB host that has a standard type-A or type
+-C USB port.
+ <li> The port SHOULD use micro-A, micro-AB or type-C USB form factor. Existing and
+new Android devices are <strong>very strongly encouraged to meet these requirements</strong> so they will be able to upgrade to the future platform releases.
+ <li> The port SHOULD be centered in the middle of an edge. Device implementations
+SHOULD either locate the port on the bottom of the device (according to natural
+orientation) or enable software screen rotation for all apps (including home
+screen), so that the display draws correctly when the device is oriented with
+the port at bottom. Existing and new Android devices are <strong>very strongly encouraged to meet these requirements</strong> so they will be able to upgrade to future platform releases.
+ <li> It MUST allow a USB host connected with the Android device to access the
+contents of the shared storage volume using either USB mass storage or Media
+Transfer Protocol, if the device reports the android.hardware.feature.output
+feature or the android.hardware.camera feature.
+ <li> It SHOULD implement the Android Open Accessory (AOA) API and specification as
+documented in the Android SDK documentation, and if it is an Android Handheld
+device it MUST implement the AOA API. Device implementations implementing the
+AOA specification:
+ <ul>
+ <li> MUST declare support for the hardware feature android.hardware.usb.accessory [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/usb/accessory.html">Resources, 97</a>]
+ <li> MUST implement the USB audio class as documented in the Android SDK
+documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/usb/UsbConstants.html#USB_CLASS_AUDIO">Resources, 98</a>]
+ </ul>
+ <li> It SHOULD implement support to draw 1.5 A current during HS chirp and traffic
+as specified in the USB battery charging specification [<a href="http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/devclass_docs/USB_Battery_Charging_1.2.pdf">Resources, 99</a>]. Existing and new Android devices are <strong>very strongly encouraged to meet these requirements</strong> so they will be able to upgrade to the future platform releases.
+ <li> The value of iSerialNumber in USB standard device descriptor MUST be equal to
+the value of android.os.Build.SERIAL.
+</ul>
+
+<p>If a device implementation includes a USB port supporting host mode, it:</p>

+Android Watch devices SHOULD and other type of device implementations MUST meet
+the following criteria:</p>
+
+<h2 id=8_1_user_experience_consistency>8.1. User Experience Consistency</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST provide a smooth user interface by ensuring a
+consistent frame rate and response times for applications and games. Device
+implementations MUST meet the following requirements: </p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>Consistent frame latency</strong>—Inconsistent frame latency or a delay to render frames MUST NOT happen more
+often than 5 frames in a second, and SHOULD be below 1 frames in a second.
+ <li> <strong>User interface latency</strong>—Device implementations MUST ensure low latency user experience by scrolling a
+list of 10K list entries as defined by the Android Compatibility Test Suite
+(CTS) in less than 36 secs.
+ <li> <strong>Task switching</strong>—When multiple applications have been launched, re-launching an already-running
+application after it has been launched MUST take less than 1 second.
+</ul>
+
+<h2 id=8_2_file_i_o_access_performance>8.2. File I/O Access Performance</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST ensure file access performance consistency for read
+and write operations. </p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> <strong>Sequential write</strong>—Device implementations MUST ensure a sequential write performance of 10MB/s
+for a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
+ <li> <strong>Random write</strong>—Device implementations MUST ensure a random write performance of 0.5MB/s for a
+256MB file using 4KB write buffer.
+ <li> <strong>Sequential read</strong>—Device implementations MUST ensure a sequential read performance of 15MB/s for
+a 256MB file using 10MB write buffer.
+ <li> <strong>Random read</strong>—Device implementations MUST ensure a random read performance of 3.5MB/s for a
+256MB file using 4KB write buffer.
+</ul>
+
+<h1 id=9_security_model_compatibility>9. Security Model Compatibility</h1>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST implement a security model consistent with the
+Android platform security model as defined in Security and Permissions
+reference document in the APIs [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/security/permissions.html">Resources, 102</a>] in the Android developer documentation. Device implementations 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 follow
+subsections.</p>
+
+<h2 id=9_1_permissions>9.1. Permissions</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST support the Android permissions model as defined in
+the Android developer documentation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/security/permissions.html">Resources, 102</a>]. Specifically, implementations MUST enforce each permission defined as
+described in the SDK documentation; no permissions may be omitted, altered, or
+ignored. Implementations MAY add additional permissions, provided the new
+permission ID strings are not in the android.* namespace.</p>
+
+<h2 id=9_2_uid_and_process_isolation>9.2. UID and Process Isolation</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST support the Android application sandbox model, in
+which each application runs as a unique Unixstyle UID and in a separate
+process. Device implementations 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 [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/security/permissions.html">Resources, 102</a>].</p>
+
+<h2 id=9_3_filesystem_permissions>9.3. Filesystem Permissions</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST support the Android file access permissions model
+as defined in the Security and Permissions reference [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/security/permissions.html">Resources, 102</a>].</p>
+
+<h2 id=9_4_alternate_execution_environments>9.4. Alternate Execution Environments</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MAY include runtime environments that execute
+applications using some other software or technology than the Dalvik Executable
+Format or native code. However, such alternate execution environments MUST NOT
+compromise the Android security model or the security of installed Android
+applications, as described in this section.</p>
+
+<p>Alternate runtimes MUST themselves be Android applications, and abide by the
+standard Android security model, as described elsewhere in <a href="#heading=h.a32osmf1tmwt">section 9</a>.</p>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>Alternate runtimes MUST NOT permit applications to make use of features
+protected by Android permissions restricted to system applications.</p>
+
+<p>Alternate runtimes MUST abide by the Android sandbox model. Specifically,
+alternate runtimes:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> SHOULD install apps via the PackageManager into separate Android sandboxes (
+Linux user IDs, etc.)
+ <li> MAY provide a single Android sandbox shared by all applications using the
+alternate runtime
+ <li> 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
+ <li> MUST NOT launch with, grant, or be granted access to the sandboxes
+corresponding to other Android applications
+ <li> MUST NOT be launched with, be granted, or grant to other applications any
+privileges of the superuser (root), or of any other user ID
+</ul>
+
+<p>The .apk files of alternate runtimes MAY be included in the system image of a
+device implementation, but MUST be signed with a key distinct from the key used
+to sign other applications included with the device implementation.</p>
+
+<p>When installing applications, alternate runtimes MUST obtain user consent for
+the Android permissions used by the application. If 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. If 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.</p>

+</table>
+
+
+<p>Android includes support for multiple users and provides support for full user
+isolation [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/UserManager.html">Resources, 103]</a>. Device implementations MAY enable multiple users, but when enabled MUST meet
+the following requirements related to multi-user support [<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/tech/storage">Resources, 104</a>]:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Device implementations that do not declare the android.hardware.telephony
+feature flag 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.
+ <li> Conversely device implementations that declare the android.hardware.telephony
+feature flag 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.
+ <li> Device implementations 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 [<a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/security/permissions.html">Resources, 102</a>]
+ <li> Device implementations MAY support creating users and managed profiles via the
+android.app.admin.DevicePolicyManager APIs, and if supported, MUST declare the
+platform feature flag android.software.managed_users.
+ <li> Device implementations that declare the feature flag
+android.software.managed_users MUST use the upstream AOSP icon badge to
+represent the managed applications and other badge UI elements like Recents &
+Notifications.
+ <li> Each user instance on an Android device MUST have separate and isolated
+external storage directories. Device implementations MAY store multiple users'
+data on the same volume or filesystem. However, the device implementation MUST
+ensure that applications owned by and running on behalf a given user cannot
+list, read, or write to data owned by any other user. Note that removable
+media, such as SD card slots, can allow one user to access another's data by
+means of a host PC. For this reason, device implementations that use removable
+media for the external storage APIs MUST encrypt the contents of the SD card if
+multiuser is enabled using a key stored only on non-removable media accessible
+only to the system. 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. Accordingly, device
+implementations MAY but SHOULD NOT enable multi-user if they use removable
+media [<a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment.html">Resources, 105</a>] for primary external storage.
+</ul>
+
+<h2 id=9_6_premium_sms_warning>9.6. Premium SMS Warning</h2>
+
+
+<p>Android includes support for warning users of any outgoing premium SMS message
+[<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_code">Resources, 106</a>] . Premium SMS messages are text messages sent to a service registered with a
+carrier that may incur a charge to the user. Device implementations that
+declare support for android.hardware.telephony 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.</p>
+
+<h2 id=9_7_kernel_security_features>9.7. Kernel Security Features</h2>
+
+
+<p>The Android Sandbox includes features that can use the Security-Enhanced Linux
+(SELinux) mandatory access control (MAC) system and other security features in
+the Linux kernel. SELinux or any other security features, if implemented below
+the Android framework:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST maintain compatibility with existing applications
+ <li> MUST NOT have a visible user interface when a security violation is detected
+and successfully blocked, but MAY have a visible user interface when an
+unblocked security violation occurs resulting in a successful exploit
+ <li> SHOULD NOT be user or developer configurable
+</ul>
+
+<p>If any API for configuration of policy is exposed to an application that can
+affect another application (such as a Device Administration API), the API MUST
+NOT allow configurations that break compatibility. </p>
+
+<p>Devices MUST implement SELinux or an equivalent mandatory access control system
+if using a kernel other than Linux and meet the following requirements, which
+are satisfied by the reference implementation in the upstream Android Open
+Source Project.</p>
+
+<p>Device implementations:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> MUST support a SELinux policy that allows the SELinux mode to be set on a
+per-domain basis, and MUST configure all domains in enforcing mode. No
+permissive mode domains are allowed, including domains specific to a
+device/vendor
+ <li> SHOULD load policy from /sepolicy file on the device
+ <li> MUST NOT modify, omit, or replace the neverallow rules present within the
+sepolicy file provided in the upstream Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and
+the policy MUST compile with all neverallow present, for both AOSP SELinux
+domains as well as device/vendor specific domains
+ <li> MUST support dynamic updates of the SELinux policy file without requiring a
+system image update
+</ul>
+
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD retain the default SELinux policy provided in the
+upstream Android Open Source Project, until they have first audited their
+additions to the SELinux policy. Device implementations MUST be compatible with
+the upstream Android Open Source Project.</p>
+
+<h2 id=9_8_privacy>9.8. Privacy</h2>
+
+
+<p>If the device implements functionality in the system that captures the contents
+displayed on the screen and/or records the audio stream played on the device,
+it MUST continuously notify the user whenever this functionality is enabled and
+actively capturing/recording.</p>
+
+<h2 id=9_9_full-disk_encryption>9.9. Full-Disk Encryption</h2>
+
+<table>
+ <tr>
+ <td class="tab2"></td>
+ <td>
+<p>Optional for Android device implementations without a lock screen.</p>
+</td>
+ </tr>
+</table>
+
+
+<p>If the device implementation has a lock screen, the device MUST support
+full-disk encryption of the application private data, (/data partition) as well
+as the SD card partition if it is a permanent, non-removable part of the device
+[<a href="http://source.android.com/devices/tech/encryption/index.html">Resources, 107</a>]. For devices supporting full-disk encryption, the full-disk encryption SHOULD
+be enabled all the time after the user has completed the out-of-box experience.
+While this requirement is stated as SHOULD for this version of the Android
+platform, it is <strong>very strongly RECOMMENDED</strong> as we expect this to change to MUST in the future versions of Android.
+Encryption MUST use AES with a key of 128-bits (or greater) and a mode designed
+for storage (for example, AES-XTS, AES-CBC-ESSIV). The encryption key MUST NOT
+be written to storage at any time without being encrypted. Other than when in
+active use, the encryption key SHOULD be AES encrypted with the lockscreen
+passcode stretched using a slow stretching algorithm (e.g. PBKDF2 or scrypt).
+If the user has not specified a lockscreen passcode or has disabled use of the
+passcode for encryption, the system SHOULD use a default passcode to wrap the
+encryption key. If the device provides a hardware-backed keystore, the password
+stretching algorithm MUST be cryptographically bound to that keystore. The
+encryption key MUST NOT be sent off the device (even when wrapped with the user
+passcode and/or hardware bound key). The upstream Android Open Source project
+provides a preferred implementation of this feature based on the linux kernel
+feature dm-crypt.</p>
+
+<h2 id=9_10_verified_boot>9.10. Verified Boot</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations SHOULD support verified boot for device integrity, and
+if the feature is supported it MUST declare the platform feature flag
+android.software.verified_boot. While this requirement is stated as SHOULD for
+this version of the Android platform, it is <strong>very strongly RECOMMENDED</strong> as we expect this to change to MUST in the future versions of Android. The
+upstream Android Open Source Project provides a preferred implementation of
+this feature based on the linux kernel feature dm-verity.</p>
+
+<h1 id=10_software_compatibility_testing>10. Software Compatibility Testing</h1>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST pass all tests described in this section.</p>
+
+<p>However, note that no software test package is fully comprehensive. For this
+reason, device implementers are <strong>very strongly encouraged</strong> 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.</p>
+
+<h2 id=10_1_compatibility_test_suite>10.1. Compatibility Test Suite</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST pass the Android Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) [<a href="http://source.android.com/compatibility/index.html">Resources, 108</a>] available from the Android Open Source Project, using the final shipping
+software on the device. Additionally, device implementers SHOULD use the
+reference implementation in the Android Open Source tree as much as possible,
+and MUST ensure compatibility in cases of ambiguity in CTS and for any
+reimplementations of parts of the reference source code.</p>
+
+<p>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 5.0. Device implementations MUST pass the latest CTS version available
+at the time the device software is completed.</p>
+
+<h2 id=10_2_cts_verifier>10.2. CTS Verifier</h2>
+
+
+<p>Device implementations MUST correctly execute all applicable cases in the CTS
+Verifier. 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.</p>
+
+<p>The CTS Verifier has tests for many kinds of hardware, including some hardware
+that is optional. Device implementations 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.</p>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<h1 id=11_updatable_software>11. Updatable Software</h1>
+
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>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:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> Over-the-air (OTA) downloads with offline update via reboot
+ <li> "Tethered" updates over USB from a host PC
+ <li> "Offline" updates via a reboot and update from a file on removable storage
+</ul>
+
+<p>However, if the device implementation includes support for an unmetered data
+connection such as 802.11 or Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network) profile, the
+device MUST support Over-the-air download with offline update via reboot.</p>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>For device implementations that are launching with Android 5.0 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
+5.0, satisfies this requirement.</p>
+
+<p>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, the device implementer MUST correct the error via a software
+update available that can be applied per the mechanism just described.</p>
