I want to measure properties like energy consumption of my Android application.
I know about tools like PowerTutor, but because I need a more accurate tool I want to use Qualcomm's trepn profiler. In Qualcomm's website, there is a list of devices that can be used for this purpose. However, in the (old, now-removed version of the) list there is also a release date for the devices.
How can I programmatically check the release date of a smartphone device? Is it possible to check the release date in Android device?
The only date I was able to find was
android.os.Build.TIME
. However, this is not the exact release date, it looks like the release date of firmware installed (though it is the release date in case no firmware upgrade took place).
