[Completed] [Q] Android App transfer of ownership

In regards to app transfer process, has anyone experienced difficulties after a transfer of ownership was done?
We are developing an app for a client, who have an existing app being hosted and managed by a 3rd party vendor. We need to understand the process of helping the client get ownership of the current app and then with the same name of the app, push our (new) binaries as an update to the app. The key thing is that there should not be any disruption to the current service and the transition to the new app is transparent to the users – All reviews, ratings etc. remain the same.
- What are the key information transfers that must happen during transfer of ownership of an app (Keys, version no. etc.)?
- If new update to an app is completely different in architecture, is there an approval process from Google Play to go through? If yes, how long does this usually take?
So to summarize, ‘V’ is the third party vendor hosting the app named ‘X’ for our client ‘C’. We (Dev company ‘D’) want to replace the current app with our implementation, but retaining the existing app name, customer base, reviews, ratings etc. such that existing users just get a notification to upgrade their existing app and it changes to the new app once they download.
Thanks!

The printing functionality has been removed from xiaomi devices. So, it cannot be enabled natively. You will have to use a 3rd party app for this.
Also, you have posted it in the wrong section. Please post all queries in Q&A section.
Hit thanks if i helped

[Completed] Android + Kiosk App

Hi Guys,
I'm looking for help and this is the last place i'm having hopes for..
I have native android app that was developed by me. and my company wants to put this app in tablet so then the app has true kiosk mode, loading on the start, auto-updating (somehow?? today I'm checking it with api call and forcing users to go to google play)
The current kiosk mode i have - isn't working that well across all the devices, Some tablets like samsung 8 inchers will cause app to crash on requesting device administrator. Some tablets don't allow me to disable turn the screen back on if user clicked on the button.
We would also like to add some AdMob and AdColony SDK's there but now the issue is that if either of this networks has a link to google play or just a web link it fires intent and kicking chrome instead which knocks my app to the background in some devices.
What do we need to do from here? I mean what do we need to find to get it done? We would be buying some specific tablets for that too so I guess we can modify ROM if that is required but I'm really don't have any clue where to start here.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Device Admin Control Not working in Huawei Tab(Media Type T3 10)

Hi Forum Members,
I wanted to implement device administration control on the devices which are using my app. The scenario here is I want to get control on the uninstall of the app. Since with lock mechanism, I will lock the settings from user thereby denying the user access to settings and hence user can't uninstall apps which are under device administration control. I achieved the same with my Celkon Tab and Motorola mobiles but the problem arises with Honor Tab( media type T3 10) where when the user tries to uninstall the same app which is under device admin control it will not intent to the setting but directly uninstalls the app from the device. This shouldn't have happened since every app with device admin control code should have gone to settings and only if the user unchecked the device admin control feature he would be able to uninstall. Any help regarding the same will be highly appreciated.

Prior to Android 10, location permission is a single resource: apps only require permission once to use everywhere (foreground and background) and every time. But from Android 10, background location comes as an independent resource. Apps have to request explicitly this permission besides the foreground one.
For more details, check the official doc here.
