Description
I am using a secondary user profile for my everyday business.
However, in a secondary user profile the force checkin via dialing *#*#CHECKIN#*#* does not work. It is just ignored, probably due to permission issues.
Can you add a button in the UI that does the same thing?
As a workaround I used the following ADB commands:
adb root
adb shell am broadcast -a android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE -d android_secret_code://2432546 --receiver-include-background

Research direction
Start by locating the UI and existing handling for the force check-in or SECRET_CODE broadcast. Compare the UI action with the documented ADB command and verify that the resulting check-in works from a secondary user profile without relying on the ignored dialer code.
