Where did you store the apk with the update? There are significant changes in Android 10 related scoped storage.

i am storing the updated apk inside downloads folder(app have storage permission), i believe scoped storage is from Android 11.

If you target 10 (api 29), try to add android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" to your tag in AndroidManifest.xml.

our target sdk is 28,

if i do like below its working, but i wants to update silently

File downloadAPK = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS).getAbsolutePath(), Constants.APK_NAME); Uri apkUri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this, BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID + ".provider", downloadAPK); Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSTALL_PACKAGE); intent.setData(apkUri); intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION); startActivity(intent);

Did you make sure that all the details mentioned in the accompanying blogpost are followed?

For example

• the initial device owner APK file should have "testOnly=true" when activating it
• but the APK file for the update should have "testOnly=false"
• make sure activating device owner through shell was successful (it should show something like "success" in the output)

Additionally, try to store the APK for update in cache folder to see if the issue is with file permission permissions.

yes i followed the same mentioned in blogpost.

1. not using testOnly=ture(free to hard-reset the phone is getting locked)
2. device owner is also getting successful

after searching and analysing from 2 days, i came to a conclusion that its MIUI related issue, some of other developers also mentioned the same on stackoverflow and other places.
