Deactivate GSM-Module in Android

+1 vote
336 views

I would like to deactivate the GSM module in cell phone Google Nexus 4 so that the user cannot manipulate this state either- by setting the flight mode without possibility of user interaction to re-activate- or with system command for deactivating the GSM module- or by manipulating the firmware for Google Nexus 4. Is there a chance for solving this problem?Are there other ideas to solve this?

The third thing is impossible.

How are you going to stop people from taking open source firmware, rewriting it, and installing it? You can't.

Here are the details: I use the Google Nexus 4 phone for a special application. I installed my android-app on the phone, and the user should only be able to use/ interact with this app and not be able to use other functions of the phone such as telephone or send messages. I also have to be sure that the user cannot change the settings I made (e.g. set flight mode).
I would prefer to change the firmware but have no idea how to do this. Do you have any suggestions?

Adroid: GSM connection does not timeout even after the device goes to sleep

We have some native code that was doing a xmpp ping every 12 minutes, and if a ping didn't happen til 5 minutes after the device went to sleep, the GSM connection would silently drop.
If we change our ping interval to something like 4 minutes, the GSM connection will stay up even after the device goes to sleep.
My question is are the rules for how the GSM radio and sleeping documented anywhere?Are the rules changed by Manufacturer or by Carrier?

codepush automatic rollback doesn't occur in react-native android app?

Update is installed but status is in pending on App Center. Since sync is alreday called , it won't rollback automatically and also not updating to newer version. The app crashes on startup everytime.

So how to rollback or update to new code push bundle version in this case ?

Here is the sample code:

componentDidMount() { 
codePush.sync(codePushOptions,(status) => {  
switch (status) {    
case codePush.SyncStatus.CHECKING_FOR_UPDATE:
//console.log("Checking for updates.");
break;  
case codePush.SyncStatus.DOWNLOADING_PACKAGE:
//console.log("Downloading package.");
break;   
case codePush.SyncStatus.INSTALLING_UPDATE:
//console.log("Installing update.");
break;  
case codePush.SyncStatus.UP_TO_DATE:
break;  
case codePush.SyncStatus.UPDATE_INSTALLED:         
break;
}
})
throw new Error();
}

Note : I have thrown error to check working of auto rollback.
