onRequestPermissionsResult never gets called in fragment

Question

Below code is working fine in Activity but I cannot make it work inside a Fragment.

The onRequestPermissionsResult is never gets called.

There is a requestPermissions function in API level 23 (Android 6.0) but I need to make it work on lower levels like API level 21 (Android 5.0) so unfortunetely I cannot use that. ActivityCompat.requestPermissions just simply not calls onRequestPermissionsResult.

Any suggestion?

public class MyFragment extends Fragment {

final int REQUEST_CODE = 120;

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater infl, ViewGroup cont, Bundle bundle) {

    if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        Log.i("LOG", "Asking for permission right now..");

        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(), new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS}, REQUEST_CODE);


        //This is working but needs API level 23 (Android 6.0) - How to make this work on Android 5.0?
        //requestPermissions( new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS}, REQUEST_CODE);
    }

    return super.onCreateView(infl, cont, bundle);
}

@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {

    Log.i("LOG", "onRequestPermissionsResult!");

    if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE) {
        if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            Log.i("LOG", "GRANTED");
            Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "GRANTED,", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

        } else {
            Log.i("LOG", "REFUSED");
            Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "REFUSED,", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }
    }
}
}

`onCreateView` is a terrible choice for calling `requestPermissions` move it into `onResume` — Selvin, Apr 25 '17 at 14:23
@Selvin I do not call it in production code. It is just a small dummy code that can show and reproduce easily the error. — Adam Varhegyi, Apr 25 '17 at 14:24
Sorry but i dont understant well your idea, if your android device is on 5.0, so why you need to request the permission?? — Phạm Lam, Apr 25 '17 at 14:24
also you should call Fragment's method not static ActivityCompat's method (which is written in similar question here on SO - **which means that you didn't even tried to do some internet search on this topic** ) — Selvin, Apr 25 '17 at 14:26
Replace `ActivityCompat` with `FragmentCompat` and call its `requestPermissions()` method. As it stands, `onRequestPermissionsResult()` is being called... on the activity that you are passing to `ActivityCompat.requestPermissions()`. — CommonsWare, Apr 25 '17 at 14:31

Call fragment.onRequestPermissionResult inside the onRequestPermissionResult of the hosting activity.

Requesting permissions in runtime was added in API 23. So it will not work in older versions. In API older than 23 permissions were granted at install time.

Edit: before asking for permission just call checkSelfPermission and call your code if already granted instead of asking for permission.

onRequestPermissionsResult never gets called in fragment
