Phone tracker is an Android library to gather environment signals, like cell towers, wifi access points and gps locations. You can configure how to scan. Also you can make hot configuring updates, and be notified when the configuration is updated, among other things.
For gradle based projects you need to add to your build.gradle
repositories { jcenter() }And in your dependencies block add this line
compile 'com.fooock:phone-tracker:0.2.1'You only need to create and instance of the PhoneTracker class and pass the Context to it
PhoneTracker phoneTracker = new PhoneTracker(this);Now you can call the start() method from the tracker instance. The default configuration is used. For default all sensors are enabled.
Important: Note that if you are target Android 6.0 or greater, you need to grant location permissions to the application in order to gather environment data. You can listen for missing permissions from the PhoneTracker class using the PhoneTracker.PermissionListener interface:
// Listen for missing permissions phoneTracker.addPermissionListener(new PhoneTracker.PermissionListener() { @Override public void onPermissionNotGranted(String... permission) { } });If the permissions are not granted, the tracker can't start.
To check if the tracker is running:
// Check the state of the tracker boolean running = phoneTracker.isRunning();To stop the tracker:
// Stop all sensors and don't receive more updates phoneTracker.stop();To create a default Configuration:
// Create a default configuration Configuration configuration = new Configuration.Builder().create();Now see how you can customize the configuration:
- Wifi Create a Wifi configuration
// Create a new wifi configuration Configuration.Wifi wifiConf = new Configuration.Wifi(); wifiConf.setScanDelay(3000);- Cell Create a cell configuration
// Create a new cell configuration Configuration.Cell cellConf = new Configuration.Cell(); cellConf.setScanDelay(1000);- GPS Create a GPS configuration
// Create a gps configuration Configuration.Gps gpsConf = new Configuration.Gps(); gpsConf.setMinDistanceUpdate(10); gpsConf.setMinTimeUpdate(7000);To create the new custom configuration:
// Create a new custom configuration Configuration configuration = new Configuration.Builder() .useCell(true).cell(cellConf) .useWifi(true).wifi(wifiConf) .useGps(true).gps(gpsConf) .create();In order to make effective the configuration:
// Set the init configuration phoneTracker.setConfiguration(configuration);Also, if you want to change the current configuration when the tracker is running:
// Update the current configuration phoneTracker.updateConfiguration(configuration);This method only loads the configuration that has changed, without stopping the tracker. You can listen for configuration changes using the PhoneTracker.ConfigurationChangeListener interface:
// Listen for configuration changes phoneTracker.setConfigurationChangeListener(new PhoneTracker.ConfigurationChangeListener(){ @Override public void onConfigurationChange(Configuration configuration) { } });You can setup listeners to receive wifi, gps updates and cell tower signals. See below.
- Wifi
// Set the listener to receive wifi scans phoneTracker.setWifiScanListener(new PhoneTracker.WifiScanListener() { @Override public void onWifiScansReceived(long timestamp, List<ScanResult> wifiScans) { } });- GPS
// Set the listener to receive location updates from gps phoneTracker.setGpsLocationListener(new PhoneTracker.GpsLocationListener() { @Override public void onLocationReceived(long timestamp, Location location) { } });- Cell
// Set the listener for cell scans phoneTracker.setCellScanListener(new PhoneTracker.CellScanListener() { @Override @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN_MR1) public void onCellInfoReceived(long timestamp, List<CellInfo> cells) { } @Override @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.ICE_CREAM_SANDWICH_MR1) public void onNeighborCellReceived(long timestamp, List<NeighboringCellInfo> cells) { } });Note if your application target from API 17 to 25 you don't need override the onNeighborCellReceived(...). For this I created an adapter class PhoneTracker.CellScanAdapter to override only the method you are interested:
phoneTracker.setCellScanListener(new PhoneTracker.CellScanAdapter() { @Override @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN_MR1) public void onCellInfoReceived(long timestamp, List<CellInfo> cells) { } });Copyright 2017 newhouse (nhitbh at gmail dot com) Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.
