Add app name to request scan always available (Samsung)

Question

I use the following code, to ask user for enabling scan always available

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT>=Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN_MR2 && !wifiManager.isScanAlwaysAvailable)
        startActivity(Intent(ACTION_REQUEST_SCAN_ALWAYS_AVAILABLE))

And it's works as it should, but on Samsung Galaxy Note 4 text in window appears as "null requests permission"

Screenshot:

How to replace null with app name?

@AndriyOmelchenko I'm not getting app name, I don't know where to put it, so TouchWiz could display name instead of null. Consider, I alread have app name as constant string (it's not translatable) — Dmytro Rostopira, Dec 05 '16 at 17:48
Did You try ["standard"](https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html) approach? — Andrii Omelchenko, Dec 05 '16 at 18:01
You are right, but in this case You can create custom dialog with App name received like in [this](http://stackoverflow.com/a/15114434/6950238) post. — Andrii Omelchenko, Dec 05 '16 at 18:18
@AndriyOmelchenko I can't create custom dialog. This dialog is changing private system preference. — Dmytro Rostopira, Dec 05 '16 at 18:20

Why dont you try this instead of comparing version name try comparing the version number

private static final int REQUEST_SCAN_ALWAYS_AVAILABLE = any_number;

WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager) getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 18 && !wifiManager.isScanAlwaysAvailable()) {
  startActivityForResult(new Intent(WifiManager.ACTION_REQUEST_SCAN_ALWAYS_AVAILABLE, REQUEST_SCAN_ALWAYS_AVAILABLE));
}

and for the resutl use below event

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    // Check which request we're responding to
    if (requestCode == REQUEST_SCAN_ALWAYS_AVAILABLE) 
     {
        // Make sure the request was successful
        if (resultCode != RESULT_OK) 
         {
             //User has not enabled the scan always available inform him to activate it
         }
     }
}

1. I'm comparing with number, not name. 2. Code works ok, just app name appears as "null" 3. I don't need result — Dmytro Rostopira, Dec 11 '16 at 21:04
actually, you are right in one thing - I should use `startActivityForResult` instead of `startActivity` — Dmytro Rostopira, Dec 12 '16 at 09:10
