App crashes when requesting permission

Question

I'm using this code to request SMS permission before running the method SendSMS(string 1, string 2); but my app crashes before permission request takes place. What's missing?

 final private int REQUEST_CODE = 101;

private void SendCreditSMS() {
    if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(MainActivity.this, Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS)
            != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this,
                new String[]{Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS}, REQUEST_CODE);
    } else {
        SendSMS("181", "رصيد");
    }
}

I have the feeling that it fails on pre-Marshmallow devices. Doesn't it? — Phantômaxx, Feb 16 '17 at 09:45
Probably you have not declared this permission in your manifest file. Share your logcat trace for more clarity — Ezio, Feb 16 '17 at 09:46

-There are no errors during debug. App force closes on phone. Phone is running Android 6.0. And yes, permission is added in the manifest file. — Manar Aleryani, Feb 16 '17 at 18:01

Try this,

    final private int REQUEST_CODE = 101;


    private void SendCreditSMS() {
      if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
            if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(MainActivity.this, android.Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS)
                    != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) 
            {
                ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this,
                        new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS}, REQUEST_CODE);
            } else 
            {
                SendSMS("181", "رصيد");
            }
        }
        else{
            SendSMS("181", "رصيد");
        }
    }

I'm not sure what you changed here? – Manar Aleryani Feb 16 '17 at 18:06
you are using Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS .Try to use android.Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS – Komal12 Feb 17 '17 at 02:31

The problem may be due to the reason that you declared the activity in which you request permission(s) as with no history. To solve the problem remove android:noHistory="true" line from the associated activity's code block in AndroidManifest file. To have an activity with no history you can use other calls such as finishAndRemoveTask().

Try going to the application manager in your android device and select the app you are currently executing. Then check whether permissions are given by the device to use send_sms service in your device.
