Android Code Snippet Access Wifi Information

This code takes care of requesting the location permission which is needed on Android 8+:

Sub GetWifiInfo As ResumableSub
    Dim p As Phone
    Dim WifiManager As JavaObject
    Dim WifiInfo As JavaObject
    WifiManager = WifiManager.InitializeContext.RunMethod("getSystemService", Array("wifi"))
    If p.SdkVersion >= 27 Then
        Dim rp As RuntimePermissions
        rp.CheckAndRequest(rp.PERMISSION_ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
        Wait For Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, Result As Boolean)
        If Result = False Then Return WifiInfo
    End If
    WifiInfo = WifiManager.RunMethod("getConnectionInfo", Null)
    Return WifiInfo
End Sub

Manifest editor:

AddPermission(android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE)
AddPermission(android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)

Depends on: Phone, JavaObject and RuntimePermissions

Usage example:

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    Wait For (GetWifiInfo) Complete (WifiInfo As JavaObject)
    If WifiInfo.IsInitialized Then
        Log(WifiInfo.RunMethod("getSSID", Null))
    End If
End Sub

Note that the information will not be available on Android 8+ if location services are disabled.

Hi
I have Android 10 (Android One) and it is working fine
Did you activate your location (gps symbole )?

 

[Kirk Grayson]

Yes. My location is turned on. My test devices are a Note 5 running Android 7 and a Note 9 running Android 10.
Turning off my WIFI or leaving my WIFI area on my Note 5 works how the way I want. But on my Note 9, nothing happens.
