Android Device Settings Permission

[timg...@gmail.com]

Hi

I'm trying to access the GPS settings via the native interface. I keep receiving an Permission Denial error for android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL

Under build hints I have the following

android.xpermissions

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/> <uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL"/> <uses-feature android:glEsVersion="0x00020000" android:required="true"/>

I have a key in the keystore yet the build still denies me permission. Any ideas?

Hi,
is your phone rooted? https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tasker/8uq0dDJjNIA/discussion

Hi Shai,

Yes my phone is rooted, but it is stock. Interesting, I wouldn't have even thought of that as being an issue.

Thanks!

Hi,
the whole stack is internal to Android. Google gives a lot of results and I only looked at the top, its possible there is a different reason.

Thanks Shai.

I'll try with an unrooted device and check.
