Can't get permissions even with included INTERNET permission

Question

EDIT: message about uses-permission is not allowed here no longer appears.

I'm using Volley to access google books, api is icecreamsandwich. Even including permissions to the manifest file I still get exception about permissions. I've already read some answered questions (this, this). When pointing to the uses-permission by cursor, it says that the tag is not allowed here. How can I solve the problem?

manifest file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.alone.findgooglebook">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">



        <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>


</manifest>

Function where I use the Volley

private void onSearchClicked() {
        String bookName = editText.getText().toString();
        String url = "https://www.googleapis.com/books/v1/volumes?q=" + bookName;

        RequestQueue queue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this);
        JsonObjectRequest request = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.GET, url, null, new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
            @Override
            public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
                Log.d(TAG, response.toString());
            }
        }, new Response.ErrorListener()
        {
            @Override
            public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError err)
            {
                Log.e(TAG, err.getMessage());
            }
        }
        );

        queue.add(request);
    }

editText is properly initialized by finding the view.

it's icecreamsandwich, can't recall the number. I'll edit the post — Incomputable, Jun 09 '16 at 08:36
@MikeM. Still getting the same error. I will post logcat shortly — Incomputable, Jun 09 '16 at 08:43
@Mike.M, applied your comment to the post, the logcat is taken after applying it. — Incomputable, Jun 09 '16 at 08:47
@shuvro, no. It only queries google books by given string by the user — Incomputable, Jun 09 '16 at 08:51
Can it be due to some sort of firewall? There were no popups about firewall exceptions when I was using the vm nor when I installed it. — Incomputable, Jun 09 '16 at 08:55
could you also please show your build.gradle to check the SDKs — and_dev, Jun 09 '16 at 08:58
@and_dev, compile 'com.android.volley:volley:1.0.0' is there — Incomputable, Jun 09 '16 at 08:59
"When pointing to the `uses-permission` by cursor, it says that the tag is not allowed here." - You changed it to `uses` in that sentence. Does that mean it still says that tag is not allowed there, after the correction? — Mike M., Jun 09 '16 at 09:01
Then clean and rebuild the project, restart your IDE, reboot the device/emulator, uninstall/reinstall the app, etc. That should be working. — Mike M., Jun 09 '16 at 09:04
@MikeM., worked! Thank you. Last question: should I leave the post or delete it, since it's somewhere around typo? — Incomputable, Jun 09 '16 at 09:06
It's up to you, I guess. I voted to close it as a typo. If you want to delete it, do it quickly, before someone mistakenly upvotes an answer. — Mike M., Jun 09 '16 at 09:14
Oh, wait. It's got two answers, now, so I don't think you can delete it. I guess, just wait for 4 more close votes. — Mike M., Jun 09 '16 at 09:24
@MikeM. I've flagged it myself, waiting for moderator intervention — Incomputable, Jun 09 '16 at 09:25

I assume your targetSdk is set to 23 so you have to ask the user for permissions. A quickfix would be to set the targetSdk=22 and all should work then.

Try adding

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>

and add your activity name with package like

 <activity android:name="com.example.MainActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
  </activity>

Let me know if it works
