You should be asking this question in android-framework - this list is
for application developers.
However, the short answer is that we are removing this API in the next
major release. In fact, the entire audio architecture is going to get
a new treatment.
We are planning on a replacement for setParameter/getParameter that
will support atomic commits. So, if you do decide to use setParameter
now, it should not be difficult to merge your changes when the new API
is in place. I would prefer that you go this way over modifying the
binder interface and all the JNI. In fact, that's precisely why we
will continue to provide an API like this so you don' t have to worry
about mucking with binder code.
