I have a widget which I am trying to use to display information from my app's local database inside of a listview. I'm using the RemoteViewsService.RemoteViewsFactory interface to load my list's contents. If I run the block of code which reloads the list in the onDataSetChanged method. the app crashes with the following message: 11-01 16:40:39.540: E/ACRA(27175): DataDisplay fatal error : Permission Denial: reading com.datadisplay.content.ContentProviderAdapter uri content://com.datadisplay.provider.internalDB/events from pid=573, uid=10029 requires the provider be exported, or

The following code which consists of downloading a file from a server and save it in the storage works fine when the device has an internal storage. But when I tried it with a device with no internal storage, only with external storage I get the following exception. java.io.filenotfoundexception open failed eacces (permission denied) public void downloadFile(String dlUrl, String dlName) { int count; HttpURLConnection con = null; InputStream is = null; FileOutputStream fos = null; try { URL url = new URL( dlUrl ); con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(); con.setDoInput(true); con.connect

I have a GPS app that already requests ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission in the manifest, now I want to add a library (MoPub) that requires ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION . Am I correct in assuming that ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION is enough, and I can leave out ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION from my manifest? https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/location/strategies.html#Permission Note: If you are using both NETWORK_PROVIDER and GPS_PROVIDER, then you need to request only the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission, because it includes permission for both providers. (Permission for ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION includes

Using adb, how can I find out the which permissions an Android application requires? Because I want to display the permissions of multiple applications on different devices, viewing them in Google Play or Settings > Applications manager requires too much manual work. I just wanted to combine Jason's and Juuso's answers together and notice that the former lists permissions that were granted , while the latter lists permissions that were requested (including ones that were granted). To see only permissions that were granted (but omitting ones that were requested but not granted) use adb shell

Background Android had a lot of changes as to how to handle the SD-card and storage in general: API 3 - you get all access, no permission needed API 4-15 - you need to use WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, and you get all access. API 16-18 - if you wish only to read, use READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE API 19-20 - you can't read or write to secondary external storage (SD-card), unless your app is a system app, or you have root. API 21-22 - in order to access the SD-card, you need to ask the user for permission, and use the DocumentFile API instead of the File API. This raied a lot of questions, as I've written

Context context; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); Context context = (Permission) this; // In an actual app, you'd want to request a permission when the user // performs an action // that requires that permission. if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) { getPermissionToReadUserContacts(); } } // Identifier for the permission request private static final int READ_CONTACTS_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST = 1; // Called when the user is performing an action which requires the app to // read the // user's
