Android Request Permission Callback

I'm trying to implement Android permissions from https://developers.google.com/android/guides/permissions
A couple of ques:
1) The callback onRequestPermissionResult - where are the parameters String[] permissions and int[]grantResults from?
2) I keep getting null values for grantResults and String[] permissions
3) I have set the value of the const REQUEST_LOCATION to 0 - does it matter what the value of this const is?
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// Check Permissions Now
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION},
REQUEST_LOCATION);
} else {
// permission has been granted, continue as usual
Location myLocation =
LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(mGoogleApiClient);
}
One unrelated ques...when getting a google map API key is it required to set the SHA-1 value or is that optional and just limits the key to android.
Thanks.
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,
String[] permissions,
int[] grantResults)

Get your run time permission like this
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) ==
PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED &&
ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) ==
PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// Permission already Granted
//Do your work here
//Perform operations here only which requires permission
} else {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION}, 1);
}
and if permission is not already granted override onRequestPermission Results like this
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, #NonNull String[] permissions, #NonNull int[] grantResults) {
if (requestCode == 1) {
if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
//Permission Granted
//Do your work here
//Perform operations here only which requires permission
}
}
}

public class RequestUserPermission {
private Activity activity;
// Storage Permissions
private static final int REQUEST_PERMISSION = 1;
private static String[] PERMISSIONS = {
Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
};
public RequestUserPermission(Activity activity) {
this.activity = activity;
}
public boolean verifyStoragePermissions() {
// Check if we have write permission
int permissionWrite = ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
int permissionRead = ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity, Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
if ((permissionWrite != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) ||
(permissionRead != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)) {
// We don't have permission so prompt the user
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(
activity,
PERMISSIONS,
REQUEST_PERMISSION
);
return false;
}else{
return true;
}
}
public void providePermission(){
verifyStoragePermissions();
}
public void forceFullOpenPermission(){
if(!verifyStoragePermissions()){
Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_APPLICATION_DETAILS_SETTINGS);
Uri uri = Uri.fromParts("package", activity.getPackageName(), null);
intent.setData(uri);
activity.startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_PERMISSION);
}
}
In your Activity
RequestUserPermission requestUserPermission = new
RequestUserPermission(DashBoard.this);
requestUserPermission.verifyStoragePermissions();
If you want to forceful open permission
requestUserPermission.forceFullOpenPermission();

1) request code is the one you named it REQUEST_LOCATION with value of 0. permissions is the requests you have sent. for example you can request for Location permission and Read SMS permission at once so you will get them in permissions string array. and grantResults is the status of each requests for example if user accepts Location request it will be 1 and if he rejected Read SMS it will be 0
2)I think this means you have rejected the request
3)With that if you have requested multiple times from different places you can determine which result is for which request
and answer of your unrelated question: no it's optional and if you don't want other applications uses your key you have to set that

1) The callback onRequestPermissionResult - where are the parameters String[] permissions and int[]grantResults from?
permissions is the list of permissions you requested and grantResults are the results of those requests. So since you only requested one permission (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION), you will get back ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION in permissions, and either PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED or PackageManager.PERMISSION_DENIED in grantResults
2) I keep getting null values for grantResults and String[] permissions
This means that the user did not click Accept or Decline in the permission dialog. Rather, they cancelled the dialog by clicking outside of it, or leaving the application.
3) I have set the value of the const REQUEST_LOCATION to 0 - does it matter what the value of this const is?
No, this can be anything

App crashes when requesting permission

I'm using this code to request SMS permission before running the method SendSMS(string 1, string 2);
but my app crashes before permission request takes place.
What's missing?
final private int REQUEST_CODE = 101;
private void SendCreditSMS() {
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(MainActivity.this, Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS}, REQUEST_CODE);
} else {
SendSMS("181", "رصيد");
}
}

Try this,
final private int REQUEST_CODE = 101;
private void SendCreditSMS() {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(MainActivity.this, android.Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
{
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this,
new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS}, REQUEST_CODE);
} else
{
SendSMS("181", "رصيد");
}
}
else{
SendSMS("181", "رصيد");
}
}

The problem may be due to the reason that you declared the activity in which you request permission(s) as with no history. To solve the problem remove
android:noHistory="true"
line from the associated activity's code block in AndroidManifest file. To have an activity with no history you can use other calls such as finishAndRemoveTask().

Try going to the application manager in your android device and select the app you are currently executing. Then check whether permissions are given by the device to use send_sms service in your device.

Thank you for any help.

You need request permission at runtime in android >= 6.0
https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html

You have to grant permission in android version >=6.0 (Marshmallow and above).

For Android 6.0+, you have to request the permission at runtime as well as adding it to the manifest. So something like this added to your Activity onCreate();
List<String> permissions = new ArrayList<>();
permissions.add(Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS);
//...add any others you need to this arraylist
// Convert the List to an Array
String[] permissionsArray = permissions.toArray(new String[0]);
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(), permissionsArray, REQUEST_CODE);
//The REQUEST_CODE is just a integer that your callback method will check, set it to some number
Then override this method in your activity to check whether the request was granted or not
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case REQUEST_CODE: {
if (grantResults.length > 0
&& grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
//Permission Granted, do your thing
} else {
//Permission denied, you can't do what you want to because user didn't give you permission
}
return;
}
}
See here for more info https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html

Change your target sdk version to 22 in your app's build.gradle if you donot want to request the permission to the user at run time.
Else if you want to keep the target sdk version to 23 then you would need to request the permission from the user at run time as mentioned above by #wanpanman

Call this permission.
//Check permissions
public boolean reqPermission() {
if (!Permissions.checkPermission(this, Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS)) {
if (shouldShowRationale(Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS)) {
Snackbar.make(yourLayout, "Need to enable contact permission to use this feature. bla bla bla",
Snackbar.LENGTH_INDEFINITE)
.setAction(R.string.settings, new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_APPLICATION_DETAILS_SETTINGS);
Uri uri = Uri.fromParts("package", getPackageName(), null);
intent.setData(uri);
startActivity(intent);
}
})
.show();
return true;
} else {
Permissions.grantPermission(this, PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE);
return true;
}
} else {
return false;
}
}
#TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
public boolean shouldShowRationale(String permission) {
return shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(permission);
}

How to Access Camera in Android 6.0 Marshmallow?

I am to new to Android 6.0 Coding Please Provide a solutions For the Below Code:
When i provide Run Time Permissions like READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE it shows an Exception like
java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: starting Intent { act=android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE flg=0x3 cmp=com.motorola.camera/.Camera clip={text/uri-list U:file:///storage/emulated/0/Pictures/MyAppNew%20File%20Upload/IMG_20160401_110234.jpg} (has extras) } from ProcessRecord{ed96564 26955:com.social.nocializer/u0a259} (pid=26955, uid=10259) with revoked permission android.permission.CAMERA
Either MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE and MediaStore.INTENT_ACTION_STILL_IMAGE_CAMERA_SECURE Run Time Permissions are not working...
Note: READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE Works For When Opening Gallery

You have to manage run time permission for this, Because whichever permissions you have defined in AndroidManifest will not be automatically granted. So like below method you can check whether you permission is approved or not
if (checkSelfPermission(Manifest.permission.CAMERA)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
requestPermissions(new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA},
MY_REQUEST_CODE);
}
Here, MY_REQUEST_CODE is a static constant that you can define, which will be used again for the requestPermission dialog callback. Now, You will need a callback for the dialog result:
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {
if (requestCode == MY_REQUEST__CODE) {
if (grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// Now user should be able to use camera
}
else {
// Your app will not have this permission. Turn off all functions
// that require this permission or it will force close like your
// original question
}
}
}

#Ronak Solution worked for me but with a few following changes, As we need to check on only those devices which are above Android M.
if( ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.CAMERA) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
requestPermissions(new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.CAMERA},
5);
}
}
And override the following method using crl+o copying, pasting would might result in an error :D
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
if (requestCode == 5) {
if (grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// Now user should be able to use camera
}
else {
// Your app will not have this permission. Turn off all functions
// that require this permission or it will force close like your
// original question
}
}

Revoked permission android.permission.CALL_PHONE

I'm trying to programmatically call to a number with following code:
String number = ("tel:" + numTxt.getText());
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(number));
startActivity(intent);
I've set the permission in the Manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"/>
I'm working with real device for testing and debugging, it is Nexus 5 with Android M, my compileSdkVersion is 23. I'm getting the following Security Exception:
error: Permission Denial: starting Intent { act=android.intent.action.CALL dat=tel:xxxxxxxxxx cmp=com.android.server.telecom/.components.UserCallActivity } from ProcessRecord{cbbd7c1 5228:com.dialerTest.DialerApp/u0a96} (pid=5228, uid=10096) with revoked permission android.permission.CALL_PHONE
I've searched the web and this community for similar Q/A and couldn't find the answer. Any help will be appreciated.

Permission CALL_PHONE belong to dangerous permission group.
So if your apps target SDK is 23 or higher and your device is running on Android 6.0 or higher, you must request for CALL_PHONE permission while the app is running.
Example :
String number = ("tel:" + numTxt.getText());
mIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
mIntent.setData(Uri.parse(number));
// Here, thisActivity is the current activity
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(thisActivity,
Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(thisActivity,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE},
MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_CALL_PHONE);
// MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_CALL_PHONE is an
// app-defined int constant. The callback method gets the
// result of the request.
} else {
//You already have permission
try {
startActivity(mIntent);
} catch(SecurityException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
When your app requests permissions, the system presents a dialog box to the user. When the user responds, the system invokes your app's onRequestPermissionsResult() method, passing it the user response.
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,
String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_CALL_PHONE: {
// If request is cancelled, the result arrays are empty.
if (grantResults.length > 0
&& grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// permission was granted, yay! Do the phone call
} else {
// permission denied, boo! Disable the
// functionality that depends on this permission.
}
return;
}
// other 'case' lines to check for other
// permissions this app might request
}
}

In android 6.0 (Api lvl 23) we have something called "Runtime Permissions". You have to read about it.
You can find documentation here.

You code could works only if you make an ACTION_DIAL, not an ACTION_CALL where you need to request a permission, so if you want to make a call, please follow this example:
MANIFEST:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />
Code:
import static android.Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE;
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
i.setData(Uri.parse("tel:0612312312"));
/*
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL);
i.setData(Uri.parse("tel:0612312312"));
if (i.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivity(i);
}*/
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getApplicationContext(), CALL_PHONE) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
startActivity(i);
} else {
requestPermissions(new String[]{CALL_PHONE}, 1);
}

in fragment class
Step 1:
import static android.Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE;
step 2:Where your onclick button:
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
callIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:" +driver_no ));
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), CALL_PHONE) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
startActivity(callIntent);
} else {
requestPermissions(new String[]{CALL_PHONE}, 1);
}
[Or] you are using in activity class means change the getActivity to getApplicationContext()

FYI: If you're targeting Android 11, you need to add an Intent Query element for Intent.ACTION_DIAL in your manifest.
