SecurityException with Android

Question

I have this code:

TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(Context.TELPHONY_SERVICE);
Class clase = Class.forName(tm.getClass().getName());  
Method m = clase.getDeclaredMethod("getITelephony");  
m.setAccesible(true);  
ITelephony it = (ITelephony) m.invoke(tm);  
it.supplyPIN("1111");

I have a SecurityException when I try to invoke the method *supplyPIN("1111")*. The error message is:

java.lang.SecurityException: Neither user 10066 nor current process has android.permission.MODIFY_PHONE_STATE.

In my Manifest.xml I have the MODIFY_PHONE_STATE permission.

Any idea?

Thanks

Refer this answer: How to grant system permission

You need to follow a similar approach for the android.permission.MODIFY_PHONE_STATE

If you have done this already, refer to more link on the above page that gives more details on how permission are used.

Hope this helps.

Insure that it matches this string at this URL: MODIFY_PHONE_STATE

ITelephony is an internal class of android, you should not be using it
