AndroidManifest.xml :
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
Code :
button.setOnClickListener {
var permissionCheck = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
if (permissionCheck == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
toast("success")
} else {
toast("fail")}}
Why does this return "fail" ?
For Android 6.0+ or targetSdk=23 you have to consider asking for run-time permissions. The permissions android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION is considered dangerous so you have to ask for it at run-time. See Normal and Dangerous Permissions for an overview.
What you have to do is to ask it at run-time e.g.
from the developer guidelines
// Here, thisActivity is the current activity
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(thisActivity,
Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// Should we show an explanation?
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(thisActivity,
Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS)) {
// Show an explanation to the user *asynchronously* -- don't block
// this thread waiting for the user's response! After the user
// sees the explanation, try again to request the permission.
} else {
// No explanation needed, we can request the permission.
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(thisActivity,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS},
MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_CONTACTS);
// MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_CONTACTS is an
// app-defined int constant. The callback method gets the
// result of the request.
}
}
Read more here at Requesting Permissions at Run Time
In this case you should request the permission like:ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(thisActivity,
new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION},
REQUEST_CODE);
and you should get an answer in onRequestPermissionsResult callback.
Then, if the user grant the permission, at the next time you will use the checkSelfPermission method you will get success.
For more details read this: https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html
It seems you are using target sdk >=23 and run app on device with api level also >=23. So since api 23 there is new flow to recive permissions. Permissions are divided into two categories, normal and dangerous. Dangerous permissions should be asked in runtime like this:
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(thisActivity,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS},
MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_LOCATION);
This will show system dialog for user:
So result of user's selections will be returned to public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String permissions[], int[] grantResults)
With request code that you passed in ActivityCompat.requestPermissions, in my case it is MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_LOCATION
Permissions' names will be in String permissions[] and user's selections will be accordingly in int[] grantResults, with can be PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED or PERMISSION_DENIED.
Also it's good to explain to user why you need that permission before asking it.
See more here:Requesting Permissions at Run Time
You can check Permission after/in Android 6.0

Happy coding...
for Android 6.0 and your targetSdkVersion >=23 , you should ask permission at run time,I have two advise:
1、you can change your targetSdkVersion in model gradle file,eg:
targetSdkVersion=22
but,I don't recommend use this method.
2、this return 'fail' mean you don't have this permission，your should
consider if your have request but user refuse，in this your can show a dialog to tell use ,why you need this perssion,and then request the permession you want,you can use this code below：
private boolean check(){
if(ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
//you have this permession
return true;
}else{
//don't hava permession ,you shoud check if you can request
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)) {
//the use refuse you request this permission ,the system well't show request dialog,you shoul show a dialog tu explain why you need this permission
//and guide he go to system setting open this permission.
}else {
// you can request permission direct
//requestCode is a integer code,that you can use is in onRequestPermissionsResult
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, requestCode);
}
}
return false;
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, #NonNull String[] permissions, #NonNull int[] grantResults) {
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
//in this you can listen the request result
if(grantResults[0]==PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
//user Agree permission
}else{
//user reject permission
}
}
I'm sorry,I only know java,so,this code is jave. hope this can help you to deal this problem.
Requesting permissions is too confusing for me, EasyPermissions solved all my problems
Manifest :
compile 'pub.devrel:easypermissions:0.4.2'
Code :
button.setOnClickListener {

} else {
EasyPermissions.requestPermissions(this, getString(R.string.location_perm), 1, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION )
}}

To check Location Permission via PermissionChecker.checkSelfPermission, you need to enable Location first. Otherwise PermissionChecker.checkSelfPermission will always return -2.
Since I have made a flashlight application and it works properly on the device which have SDK 22 and below. But when I come to check on marshmallow and above devices, it doesn't run and crashes at the beginning only I asked for permission using following code but it doesn't seems to be working at all. here is my code for requesting permission of camera at run time. here is my code:
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);
}
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, #NonNull String[] permissions, #NonNull 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
// if permission not granted it will force close the app
}
}
I have tried in marshmallow, nougat devices but it doesnt ask for camera permission and i have to go through manually from setting-app-flashlight-permission-allow. can anyone help me please. Currently I am testing my app in Lineage os 7.1.1
You need to add the SDK 23 permission in manifest. add the below line in manifest then you will get runtime permission callback.
<uses-permission-sdk-23 android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"/>
Just you change only if condition your code is perfect like this,
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);
}
}
to
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
if( ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,
android.Manifest.permission.CAMERA) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
requestPermissions(new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.CAMERA},
5);
}
}
if(currentAPIVersion>= 23)
{
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, Manifest.permission.CAMERA)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale((Activity) context,
Manifest.permission.CAMERA)) {
AlertDialog.Builder alertBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
alertBuilder.setCancelable(true);
alertBuilder.setTitle("Camera Permission Necessary");
alertBuilder.setMessage("Camera permission is necessary");
alertBuilder.setPositiveButton(android.R.string.yes, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions((Activity) context,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA},
MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_CAMERA);
}
});
AlertDialog alert = alertBuilder.create();
alert.show();
} else {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions((Activity) context,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA},
MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_CAMERA);
}
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
} else {
return true;
}
Use the below code and call the "requestPermission" method in onCreate of the Activity:
private static final int REQUEST_CODE_PERMISSION = 2;
List<String> mPermission=new ArrayList<String>();
public void requestPermission()
{
try {
if(ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA)
!= MockPackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
mPermission.add(Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
if(ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
!= MockPackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
)
mPermission.add(Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
);
if(ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
!= MockPackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
mPermission.add(Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
if(mPermission.size()>0)
{
String[] array = mPermission.toArray(new String[mPermission.size()]);
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, array, REQUEST_CODE_PERMISSION);
// If any permission aboe not allowed by user, this condition will execute every tim, else your else part will work
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Overwrite the method "onRequestPermissionsResult":
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
Log.e("Req Code", "" + requestCode);
if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_PERMISSION) {
if (grantResults.length == mPermission.size()) {
for(int i=0;i<grantResults.length;i++)
{
if(grantResults[i] == MockPackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
{
//don't do anything....
}
else{
mPermission=new ArrayList<String>();
requestPermission();
break;
}
}
}
else{
Toast.makeText(this,"permition not granted",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
mPermission=new ArrayList<String>();
requestPermission();
}
}
}
do this way:
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(UserProfileActivity.this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(UserProfileActivity.this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA},
5);
} else {
//start flashlight
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, #NonNull String permissions[], #NonNull int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case 5: {
for (int i = 0; i < permissions.length; i++) {
if (grantResults[i] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
//start flashlight
Log.d("Permissions CAMERA", "Permission Granted: " + permissions[i]);
} else if (grantResults[i] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_DENIED) {
Log.d("Permissions CAMERA", "Permission Denied: " + permissions[i]);
}
}
break;
}
default: {
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
} break;
}
}
I also had the same problem but managed to fixed it. Here's my case (I don't know if its the same as yours but it's worth a try)
So I have this two activities namely: MainActivity, and FlashlightActivity.
I used to ask for camera permission explicitly in FlaslightActivity just before I tap the switch button but I forgot that I was checking if a user's phone has a camera in the onCreate() method. while I was asking for permission onClick of the switch button of the flashlight, in which that was after I checked if a user's phone has a camera. So what I did was to ask for the permission in my MainActivity just before I start FlashlightActivity.
flashBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if(hasPermission()){
Intent flashIntent = new Intent("FlashlightActivity");
startActivity(flashIntent);
}else{
requestPermission();
}
}
});
So basically ask for the permission before you call any Camera related stuffs
In Lollipop, the download functionality works fine in my app, but when I upgraded to Marshmallow, my app crashes and gives this error when I try to download from the internet into the SD card:
Neither user nor current process has android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
It complains about this line of code:
DownloadManager manager = (DownloadManager) getSystemService(Context.DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
manager.enqueue(request);
I have the permissions in the manifest outside application:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
I cleaned and rebuilt the project, but it still crashes.
You should be checking if the user has granted permission of external storage by using:
if (checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
//File write logic here
return true;
}
If not, you need to ask the user to grant your app a permission:
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, REQUEST_CODE);
Of course these are for marshmallow devices only so you need to check if your app is running on Marshmallow:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
//do your check here
}
Be also sure that your activity implements OnRequestPermissionResult
The entire permission looks like this:
public boolean isStoragePermissionGranted() {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
if (checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
return true;
} else {
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is revoked");
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 1);
return false;
}
}
else { //permission is automatically granted on sdk<23 upon installation
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
return true;
}
}
Permission result callback:
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
if(grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
Log.v(TAG,"Permission: "+permissions[0]+ "was "+grantResults[0]);
//resume tasks needing this permission
}
}
Android's permission system is one of the biggest security concern all
along since those permissions are asked for at install time. Once
installed, the application will be able to access all of things
granted without any user's acknowledgement what exactly application
does with the permission.
Android 6.0 Marshmallow introduces one of the largest changes to the
permissions model with the addition of runtime permissions, a new
permission model that replaces the existing install time permissions
model when you target API 23 and the app is running on an Android 6.0+
device
Courtesy goes to Requesting Permissions at Run Time .
Example
Declare this as Global
private static final int PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE = 1;
Add this in your onCreate() section
After setContentView(R.layout.your_xml);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23)
{
if (checkPermission())
{
// Code for above or equal 23 API Oriented Device
// Your Permission granted already .Do next code
} else {
requestPermission(); // Code for permission
}
}
else
{
// Code for Below 23 API Oriented Device
// Do next code
}
Now adding checkPermission() and requestPermission()
private boolean checkPermission() {
int result = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(Your_Activity.this, android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
if (result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
private void requestPermission() {
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(Your_Activity.this, android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)) {
Toast.makeText(Your_Activity.this, "Write External Storage permission allows us to do store images. Please allow this permission in App Settings.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(Your_Activity.this, new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE);
}
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE:
if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
Log.e("value", "Permission Granted, Now you can use local drive .");
} else {
Log.e("value", "Permission Denied, You cannot use local drive .");
}
break;
}
}
FYI
onRequestPermissionsResult
This interface is the contract for receiving the results for
permission requests.
Check multiple Permission in API level 23
Step 1:
String[] permissions = new String[]{
Manifest.permission.INTERNET,
Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE,
Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
Manifest.permission.VIBRATE,
Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO,
};
Step 2:
private boolean checkPermissions() {
int result;
List<String> listPermissionsNeeded = new ArrayList<>();
for (String p : permissions) {
result = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, p);
if (result != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(p);
}
}
if (!listPermissionsNeeded.isEmpty()) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, listPermissionsNeeded.toArray(new String[listPermissionsNeeded.size()]), 100);
return false;
}
return true;
}
Step 3:
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
if (requestCode == 100) {
if (grantResults.length > 0
&& grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// do something
}
return;
}
}
Step 4:
in onCreate of Activity
checkPermissions();
Unless there is a definite requirement of writing on external storage, you can always choose to save files in app directory. In my case I had to save files and after wasting 2 to 3 days I found out if I change the storage path from
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
to
getApplicationContext().getFilesDir().getPath() //which returns the internal app files directory path
it works like charm on all the devices.
This is because for writing on External storage you need extra permissions but writing in internal app directory is simple.
you need to use runtime permission in marshmallow
https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html
you can check in app info -> permission
is your app get permission for write external storage or not
From marshmallow version, developers need to ask for runtime permissions to user.
Let me give you whole process for asking runtime permissions.
I am using reference from here : marshmallow runtime permissions android.
First create a method which checks whether all permissions are given or not
private boolean checkAndRequestPermissions() {
int camerapermission = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
int writepermission = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
int permissionLocation = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION);
int permissionRecordAudio = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO);
List<String> listPermissionsNeeded = new ArrayList<>();
if (camerapermission != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
}
if (writepermission != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
}
if (permissionLocation != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION);
}
if (permissionRecordAudio != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO);
}
if (!listPermissionsNeeded.isEmpty()) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, listPermissionsNeeded.toArray(new String[listPermissionsNeeded.size()]), REQUEST_ID_MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS);
return false;
}
return true;
}
Now here is the code which is run after above method. We will override onRequestPermissionsResult() method :
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,
String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
Log.d(TAG, "Permission callback called-------");
switch (requestCode) {
case REQUEST_ID_MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS: {
Map<String, Integer> perms = new HashMap<>();
// Initialize the map with both permissions
perms.put(Manifest.permission.CAMERA, PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED);
perms.put(Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED);
perms.put(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED);
perms.put(Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO, PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED);
// Fill with actual results from user
if (grantResults.length > 0) {
for (int i = 0; i < permissions.length; i++)
perms.put(permissions[i], grantResults[i]);
// Check for both permissions
if (perms.get(Manifest.permission.CAMERA) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
&& perms.get(Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
&& perms.get(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
&& perms.get(Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
Log.d(TAG, "sms & location services permission granted");
// process the normal flow
Intent i = new Intent(MainActivity.this, WelcomeActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
finish();
//else any one or both the permissions are not granted
} else {
Log.d(TAG, "Some permissions are not granted ask again ");
//permission is denied (this is the first time, when "never ask again" is not checked) so ask again explaining the usage of permission
// // shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale will return true
//show the dialog or snackbar saying its necessary and try again otherwise proceed with setup.
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA)
|| ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
|| ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
|| ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO)) {
showDialogOK("Service Permissions are required for this app",
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
switch (which) {
case DialogInterface.BUTTON_POSITIVE:
checkAndRequestPermissions();
break;
case DialogInterface.BUTTON_NEGATIVE:
// proceed with logic by disabling the related features or quit the app.
finish();
break;
}
}
});
}
//permission is denied (and never ask again is checked)
//shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale will return false
else {
explain("You need to give some mandatory permissions to continue. Do you want to go to app settings?");
// //proceed with logic by disabling the related features or quit the app.
}
}
}
}
}
}
If user clicks on Deny option then showDialogOK() method will be used to show dialog
If user clicks on Deny and also clicks a checkbox saying "never ask again", then explain() method will be used to show dialog.
methods to show dialogs :
private void showDialogOK(String message, DialogInterface.OnClickListener okListener) {
new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
.setMessage(message)
.setPositiveButton("OK", okListener)
.setNegativeButton("Cancel", okListener)
.create()
.show();
}
private void explain(String msg){
final android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog.Builder dialog = new android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog.Builder(this);
dialog.setMessage(msg)
.setPositiveButton("Yes", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface paramDialogInterface, int paramInt) {
// permissionsclass.requestPermission(type,code);
startActivity(new Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_APPLICATION_DETAILS_SETTINGS, Uri.parse("package:com.exampledemo.parsaniahardik.marshmallowpermission")));
}
})
.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface paramDialogInterface, int paramInt) {
finish();
}
});
dialog.show();
}
Above code snippet asks for four permissions at a time. You can also ask for any number of permissions in your any activity as per your requirements.
The easiest way I found was
private boolean checkPermissions(){
if(ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return true;
}
else {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, PERMISSION_CODE);
return false;
}
}
Add below code to your OnCreate() function in MainAcitivity, which will display pop up to ask for permission:
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(TestActivity.this,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)){
}
else {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(TestActivity.this,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},
100);
}
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(getActivity(),
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)) {
Log.d(TAG, "Permission granted");

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(),
new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},

}
fab.setOnClickListener(v -> {
Bitmap b = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.refer_pic);
Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);

After lots of searching This code work for me:
Check the permission already has:
Check WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission Allowed or not?
if(isReadStorageAllowed()){
//If permission is already having then showing the toast
//Toast.makeText(SplashActivity.this,"You already have the permission",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
//Existing the method with return
return;
}else{
requestStoragePermission();
}
private boolean isReadStorageAllowed() {
//Getting the permission status
int result = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
//If permission is granted returning true
if (result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
return true;
//If permission is not granted returning false
return false;
}
//Requesting permission
private void requestStoragePermission(){
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)){
//If the user has denied the permission previously your code will come to this block
//Here you can explain why you need this permission
//Explain here why you need this permission
}
//And finally ask for the permission
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},REQUEST_WRITE_STORAGE);
}
Implement Override onRequestPermissionsResult method for checking is the user allow or denie
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, #NonNull String[] permissions, #NonNull int[] grantResults) {
//Checking the request code of our request
if(requestCode == REQUEST_WRITE_STORAGE){
//If permission is granted
if(grantResults.length >0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
//Displaying a toast
Toast.makeText(this,"Permission granted now you can read the storage",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}else{
//Displaying another toast if permission is not granted
Toast.makeText(this,"Oops you just denied the permission",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
Before starting your download check your runtime permissions and if you don't have permission the request permissions like this method
requestStoragePermission()
private void requestStoragePermission(){
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this,
android.Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE))
{
}
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},
STORAGE_PERMISSION_CODE);
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,
#NonNull String[] permissions,
#NonNull int[] grantResults) {
if(requestCode == STORAGE_PERMISSION_CODE){
if(grantResults.length >0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
}
else{
Toast.makeText(this,
"Oops you just denied the permission",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
In a simple way the permission can be granted using manifest.xml file, but it was ok till the api level 23 sdk version 6, after from here, if we want to get the permission we have to ask for the use to allow the permission which are needed.
Just add this code in the mainActivity.java
Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// Request the permission
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA},
PERMISSION_REQUEST_CAMERA);
Replace CAMERA or add with WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE if you want, and with the unique code.
new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},
101);
This is the simple code to get permission.
I'm developing an app that require multiple permissions, so i added it and did marshmallow code too, but the problem is when i re-open an app in marshmallow it always ask for permission, i want to ask only if its not granted.
kindly help me to code for it, Thanks in Advance!
Just check for the permission and only request if neccessary.
Check permission with the help of
checkSelfPermission(Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS)
Check if permission is already granted or not
if (checkSelfPermission(Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
requestPermissions(new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS},
MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_CONTACTS);
// MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_CONTACTS is an
// app-defined int constant
return;
}
Then handle the permission
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,
String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_CONTACTS: {
if (grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// permission was granted, yay! do the
} else {
// permission denied, Disable the
// functionality that depends on this permission.
}
return;
}
}}
the Permission system has changed. But here is a good explanation how to deal with it properly.
https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html
This way the dialog is only opened once if the user grants permission. If he declines you have a option to show a explanation the next time the permission is requested.
They also have a section with best practices that is worth to read:
https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/best-practices.html
public Boolean marshmallowPermission(){
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
if (checkPermission()) {
Toast.makeText(this,"Permission already granted.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
requestPermission();
//marshmallowRequest();
}
}
return true;
}
#TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
public boolean checkPermission(){
int phone= checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE);
if (phone == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED ){
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
#TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
private void requestPermission(){
if (shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(android.Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE)){
Toast.makeText(this," Permission must be needed which allows you to access an app. Please allow in App Settings for additional functionality.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_APPLICATION_DETAILS_SETTINGS);
Uri uri = Uri.fromParts("package", this.getPackageName(), null);
intent.setData(uri);
this.startActivity(intent);
} else {
requestPermissions(new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE},101);
}
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case 101:
if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
Toast.makeText(this,"Permission Granted, Now you can access an app.",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(this,"Permission Denied, You cannot access call.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
break;
}
}
Follow these steps :
Create a group of permission you need to access.
Pass the group/array to check permission granted or not
Sample code for your reference :
public static boolean hasPermissions(Context context, String[]permissions) {
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M && context != null && permissions != null) {
for (String permission : permissions) {
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, permission) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return false;
}
}
}
return true;
Above code will check your group of permissions later pass these all to ask for once
int PERMISSION_ALL = 1;
//create all permissions array
String[] PERMISSIONS = {Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS, //all your permissions};
//Now check whether permissions are granted or not
if(!hasPermissions(this, PERMISSIONS)){
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, PERMISSIONS, PERMISSION_ALL);
}
Hope this will works out for you.
I have this code for creating directory for saving pictures:
File storageDir = null;
if (Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED.equals(Environment.getExternalStorageState())) {
storageDir = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES), "myphoto");
if (!storageDir.mkdirs()) {
if (!storageDir.exists()){
Log.d("photo", "failed to create directory");
return null;
}
}
}
return storageDir;
storeDir returns "/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/myphoto/" below android 6 and on android 6 it returns null.
I have permission <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
buildToolVersion 23
targetSdkVersion 23
How to fix?
As #CommonsWare answered, there is run-time permission asking concept on Android M, so in new approach, permissions are not asked when installing the app but when trying to use specific feature of phone which requests permission, at run-time. User later can disable permission from phone settings->app->yourapp->permissions as well. So you have to check before doing something with that permission, and ask user:
int REQUEST_WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE=1;
////...
File storageDir = null;
if (Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED.equals(Environment.getExternalStorageState())) {
//RUNTIME PERMISSION Android M
if(PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED==ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context,Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)){
storageDir = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES), "myPhoto");
}else{
requestPermission(context);
}
}
return storageDir;
////...
private static void requestPermission(final Context context){
if(ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale((Activity)context,Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)) {
// Provide an additional rationale to the user if the permission was not granted
// and the user would benefit from additional context for the use of the permission.
// For example if the user has previously denied the permission.
new AlertDialog.Builder(context)
.setMessage(context.getResources().getString(R.string.permission_storage))
.setPositiveButton(R.string.tamam, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions((Activity) context,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},
REQUEST_WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
}
}).show();
}else {
// permission has not been granted yet. Request it directly.
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions((Activity)context,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},
REQUEST_WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
}
}
///...
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case UtilityPhotoController.REQUEST_WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: {
if (grantResults.length == 1 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
Toast.makeText(context,
getResources().getString(R.string.permission_storage_success),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(context,
getResources().getString(R.string.permission_storage_failure),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
}
return;
}
}
}
You are running this on an Android 6.0+ environment and you have a targetSdkVersion of 23.
In that case, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE is part of the Android 6.0 runtime permission system. Either revise your app to participate in this system, or drop your targetSdkVersion below 23.
You must get permission for this work like:
for do it impliment this code:
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)) {
} else {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},23
);
}
}
good luck!!!
Try this code.
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
if (checkPermission()) {
//do your work
} else {
requestPermission();
}
}
}
protected boolean checkPermission() {
int result = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
if (result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
protected void requestPermission() {
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)) {
Toast.makeText(this, "Write External Storage permission allows us to do store images. Please allow this permission in App Settings.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
requestPermissions(new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 100);
}
}
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case 100:
if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
//do your work
} else {
Log.e("value", "Permission Denied, You cannot use local drive .");
}
break;
}
