Whitelist an android application on android 6.0/Marshmallow

Whitelist wont disable doze mode for your app, however can use network and hold wake lock.

Whitelist an android application through code,

boolean isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations = pm.isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations(getPackageName());
if(!isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations){
  Intent intent = new Intent();
  intent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS);
  intent.setData(Uri.parse("package:" + getPackageName()));
  startActivityForResult(intent, MY_IGNORE_OPTIMIZATION_REQUEST);
  }
             
             
Check for the result,

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    if (requestCode == MY_IGNORE_OPTIMIZATION_REQUEST) {
         PowerManager pm = (PowerManager)getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);
         boolean isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations = pm.isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations(getPackageName());
         if(isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations){
            // Ignoring battery optimization
         }else{
            // Not ignoring battery optimization
        }
    }
}

By defining the singleton class object as static final variable, this is known as early initialization of singleton object. public class SingletoneClassExample{ Private static final instance = new SingletoneClassExample(); // Define private constructor to avoid other classes from creating instance private SingletoneClassExample(){ } public static SingletoneClassExample getInstance(){         return instance;   } } By creating singleton class using above method the class object will be created at class loading itself, so if application is not using this class still the object will be created. 2. Define singleton class object on method call public clas...
