Answer 1

I found the sample tutorial here. I hope it will help you.

Warning :::: If you click "Reset Device", your device will be factory reset because of

devicePolicyManager.wipeData(ACTIVATION_REQUEST);

Answer 2

yes It is possible to make such an app that can take password before getting uninstall. Install this app "Findroid" App that has this functionality from google Play. In this app first you need to unlock your app then only u can uninstall it.

i just need to make sure that to uninstall the application , user needs to enter the password which is set in my application.

Fortunately, this is not possible for an SDK application. Even a device admin app cannot prevent the user from uninstalling it.
