android-permissions

I am building an app that requires user location. I am following the Android training documentation from here which says: shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale return the boolean indicating whether or not we should show UI with rationale for requesting a permission (dangerous permission, ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) Now in this code (taken from the documentation itself) : if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(thisActivity, Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) { // Should we show an explanation? if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(thisActivity,

I'm really confused. I have just noticed that starting from Android 8 all system calls like /proc/stat will be disabled. Ok, but what is work around to get CPU Usage in Android 8? No system calls at all. Is there some API that I'm not familiar with? I really hope that there is solution which I can't see now. No, all of /proc/stat has been disabled for non-System apps, as a side-channel.

Because the Android SDK 23 gives users the possibility to deny apps access to certain functionalities I wanted to update one of my apps to request permissions as it is described in here: https://developer.android.com/preview/features/runtime-permissions.html . In one of the activities I embed a SupportMapFragment . To make it work you need to have the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission, so I request it when I start the activity which results in a creation of a permission request dialog. Now the problem is that when the dialog is still open and I rotate the device the activity will be restarted

I am developing an Android project which includes two modules where one is a library module for producing .aar files and another is a sample app utilising the produced .aar file. Thus, there are two AndroidManifest.xml files in this project. Say I am developing a Bluetooth library, so I put permissions for bluetooth in library's manifest file. By including this library .aar as dependency, can I omit the <uses-permission> tag in the app's manifest file? In other words, does Android app "merge" (may be not literally but semantically) its dependent .aar libraries' permissions? My experience

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

I would like to know if there is a way we can identify the event when the user has pressed "Allow" button for contact details access/ calendar access etc., I know there is a way to ask for permissions with the ActivityCompat.requestPermissions but is there a way to perform an action right after the user grants a permission? First Define the variable: public static int MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION = 1; request permission using: if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) { // Should we show

I am building an Android app that will track the user's geolocation and draw their route on a map. I am using the Google Play Services location API, as described here . It is intuitive that my application requires the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission, which I put in the manifest: <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/> Do I also need the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission? What's the use case where I need the coarse location? Do I also need the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission? No. What's the use case where I need the coarse location? If you do not ask for
