Android-仍然无法以编程方式删除Wifi网络

Question

After reading several other questions/answers, I'm still having an issue using wifiManager.removeNetwork to work.

According to:

Android - Cant Remove Wifi Network Programatically- The method removeNetwork(int) in the type WifiManager is not applicable for the arguments (String)

and

How to forget a wireless network in android programmatically?

...my code should work:

WifiManager wifiMAN = (WifiManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);

for (WifiConfiguration wifiCon : wifiMAN.getConfiguredNetworks()) {
    if (wifiCon.SSID.equals( "\""+ targetNetworkName +"\"")) {
        wifiMAN.removeNetwork(wifiCon.networkId)) {
        wifiMAN.saveConfiguration();
        break;
    }
}

However, when I test on API 23 it doesn't work. Looking through the code nothing appears depreciated and the code works on API 21. Anyone have any ideas?

This is intended behavior. As of Android M apps are not allowed to modify networks that they did not create.

See: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=187347 and https://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0-changes.html#behavior-network
