Attributes

Remarks

Sets the off-host Secure Element for the given service.

If off-host SE was initially set (either statically through the manifest, or dynamically by using this API), it will be replaced with this one. All AIDs registered by this service will be re-routed to this Secure Element if successful. AIDs that was statically assigned using manifest will re-route to off-host SE that stated in manifest after NFC toggle.

Note that you can only set off-host SE for a service that is running under the same UID as the caller of this API. Typically this means you need to call this from the same package as the service itself, though UIDs can also be shared between packages using shared UIDs.

Registeration will be successful only if the Secure Element exists on the device.
