{"package_name":"com.qti.dpmserviceapp","label":"com.qti.dpmserviceapp","device_count":34,"observation_count":68,"user_facing_count":0,"first_seen":"2025-05-09T13:11:16Z","last_seen":"2026-09-18T07:11:21Z","guidance":{"summary":"A Qualcomm Technologies (QTI) system component with no label of its own: on the devices recorded here it reports its package name in place of an application name, has no launcher icon and is never user-facing, which is typical of vendor plumbing rather than of an app. It is OEM platform-signed and ships broadly on Snapdragon hardware, including rugged enterprise devices such as the Zebra and CipherLab handhelds in our sample.\n\nWhat can be verified about it is narrow but consistent. A published system service dump from a Snapdragon device shows a service registered as dpmservice behind the com.qti.dpm.IDpmService interface, and vendor init scripts in Qualcomm-based device trees start a matching native daemon at /system/bin/dpmd, which creates /data/dpm and opens sockets named dpmd, tcm and dpmwrapper while running in the system, readproc, inet and radio groups. The package itself holds NETWORK_SETTINGS and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE along with a Qualcomm READPROC permission. The networking groups, the network settings permission and the socket names together point to a data path or networking role.\n\nBeyond that, Qualcomm publishes no description of this component, and what the DPM initialism stands for could not be confirmed from a first-party source, so no functional claim is made here and no safe_to_disable rating is given. In an Android Enterprise, EMM or kiosk context this is vendor platform infrastructure rather than preinstalled bloatware: it has no role in enrolment or policy and shows the user nothing, so there is no functional gain from removing it, and its apparent place in the data path is reason to be careful. If you are auditing it, treat its purpose as undocumented and test on a single device before changing its state.\n\nVersion note: the package versions recorded here run from 13 to 16 across target SDKs of 28 to 36. Those numbers fall in the same range as recent Android releases, but this database records versions in aggregate rather than per build, so that is an observation and not proof that the package version tracks the platform version. No release in which its behaviour changed could be sourced.","sources":[{"title":"Android system service dump (OnePlus 6) showing dpmservice -
