Previously, an intent with one of the following components lead me to Huawei's system settings to change the auto-start behavior of an app.
ComponentName(
"com.huawei.systemmanager",
"com.huawei.systemmanager.startupmgr.ui.StartupNormalAppListActivity"
),
ComponentName(
"com.huawei.systemmanager",
"com.huawei.systemmanager.appcontrol.activity.StartupAppControlActivity"
)
Stacktrace:
java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: starting Intent { flg=0x10000000 cmp=com.huawei.systemmanager/.startupmgr.ui.StartupNormalAppListActivity } from ProcessRecord{34a529e 19272:com.mk...test/u0a733} (pid=19272, uid=10733) requires com.huawei.permission.external_app_settings.USE_COMPONENT

The permission that is mentioned in the Stracktrace is declared in my Manifest file.
<uses-permission android:name="com.huawei.permission.external_app_settings.USE_COMPONENT"/>
This definitely worked before, and I seem to remember there was a security update for my Huawei P30 Pro.
What is now the correct procedure? Why is it complaining about the missing permission, though it is declared?
