I don't want to include the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission in my app unless I absolutely have to. Is there a way to circumvent the issue and just

I am making a caller speaking application which speak caller name using TTS. I want to pause the ringtone while TTS is speaking then resuming the ringtone.
