Runtime permission dialogue not showing on some devices having marshmallow

Question

Hello I am facing issue that Some devices not show run time permission.what would be the issue? I am facing on some devices and app crashes.but when I go to settings and allow permissions then it is fine

crash log + what are the devices? and how sure are you that its device issue & not code issue, and finally, if you talking about Xiomi devices, then you gonna have a nightmare. — Kosh, Dec 07 '16 at 06:39
you also need to add this permissions to manifest...have you done this or do you just request at runtime? — Opiatefuchs, Dec 07 '16 at 06:41
Post *error log* or *Logcat*. And make sure what @Opiatefuchs Sir is suggesting check and go through that part. — Jay Rathod, Dec 07 '16 at 06:43

Best practice to handle run time permission is via RxPermission.

Try with RxPermission will solve you issue

String[] permissions = new String[]{
        Manifest.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS,
        Manifest.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW,
        Manifest.permission.WAKE_LOCK,
        Manifest.permission.INTERNET,
        Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE,
        Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
        Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
        Manifest.permission.BROADCAST_STICKY,
        Manifest.permission.VIBRATE,
        Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO,

};
 private boolean checkPermissions() {
    int result;
    List<String> listPermissionsNeeded = new ArrayList<>();
    for (String p : permissions) {
        result = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), p);
        if (result != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            listPermissionsNeeded.add(p);
        }
    }
    if (!listPermissionsNeeded.isEmpty()) {
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(root, listPermissionsNeeded.toArray(new String[listPermissionsNeeded.size()]), REQUEST_ID_MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS);
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}
@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
    if (requestCode == REQUEST_ID_MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS) {
        if (grantResults.length > 0
                && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            // selectImage();
            // isPermission = true;
        }
        return;

You can set the Permissions without dialog at the first start of your App programmatically.

private void setPermission(string permission){
        Process process = null;
        try {
            process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/system/bin/su -c pm grant " + [your package name] + " " + permission);
            process.waitFor();
            Log.d(TAG, "permission exec done " + process.exitValue());

        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

Now you can call it with:

setPermission("android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW");

I'm not 100 % sure if you need sudo.

I am facing this error with above code java.io.IOException: Error running exec(). Command: [/system/bin/su, -c, pm, grant, "package name", android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION] Working Directory: null Environment: null — Usman R, Dec 08 '16 at 18:38
