Android: Permission Denial: starting Intent with revoked permission android.permission.CAMERA

Question

I\'m trying to start a ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE activity in order to take a picture in my app and I\'m getting the error in the subject.

Stacktrace:

Answer 1

private String [] permissions = {"android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE", "android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION", "android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE", "android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW","android.permission.CAMERA"};

on your OnCreate add this:

int requestCode = 200;
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
    requestPermissions(permissions, requestCode);
}
