Since setWifiEnabled is deprecated on Android 10, how does one programatically enable wifi on Android 10 devices?
Is it not possible to programmatically enable wifi at all on Android 10+ (SDK 29) ?
Checking the state of WiFi can be done by obtaining an instance to the WiFi system service as below: WifiManager wifi = (WifiManager)getSystemService(Context. WIFI_SERVICE); from this, the method isWifiEnabled() can be used to determine if WiFi is enabled.
WiFi Manager is a tool to manage WiFi connections, thanks to which you will not only have the ability to find and connect to networks in your environment, but it also will improve the quality of those connections.
Android Enable or Disable Wi-Fi Following is the code snippet to enable a Wi-Fi in android application by using setWifiEnabled() method. WifiManager wmgr = (WifiManager)Context. getSystemService(Context. WIFI_SERVICE);
No, This is not possible to enable
or disable
Wi-Fi programmatically
from Android-10
API level 29
[Until google provides an alternative solution].
For applications targeting Build.VERSION_CODES.Q or above, this API will always return false and will have no effect.
If apps are targeting an older SDK ( Build.VERSION_CODES.P or below), they can continue to use this API.
There is an issue 128554616 which already has been created in google issuetracker
forum. You can see there for any updated info.
Now in android 10 you can do like this
Intent panelIntent = new Intent(Settings.Panel.ACTION_INTERNET_CONNECTIVITY);
startActivityForResult(panelIntent);
ACTION_INTERNET_CONNECTIVITY Shows settings related to internet connectivity, such as Airplane mode, Wi-Fi, and Mobile Data.
ACTION_WIFI Shows Wi-Fi settings, but not the other connectivity settings. This is useful for apps that need a Wi-Fi connection to perform large uploads or downloads.
ACTION_NFC Shows all settings related to near-field communication (NFC).
ACTION_VOLUME Shows volume settings for all audio streams.
