I have defined all the dangerous permissions in a String array as below:
String[] perms = {Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS,
Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE,
Manifest.permission.CALL_PHONE,
Manifest.permission.MODIFY_PHONE_STATE};
Then to check if they have been granted I run this:
for (int i = 0; i < perms.length; i++) {
if(ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,perms[i])!=PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
{
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,perms, permsRequestCode);
break;
}
}
For some reason this does not work. It asks for permission once, and then if I manually disable it from settings, it brings up the dialog box more than once.
How do I fix this?
Use this to check any permissions you want, either single or multiple permissions at once.

public static final int REQUEST_PERMISSION_MULTIPLE = 0;

public static boolean checkAndRequestPermissions(Activity activity) {
System.out.println("PermissionsUtils checkAndRequestPermissions()");
int permissionCamera = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity, Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
int permissionLocation = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION);
int permissionWriteExternal = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
// Permission List
List<String> listPermissionsNeeded = new ArrayList<>();
// Camera Permission
if (permissionCamera != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// Should we show an explanation?
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(activity, Manifest.permission.CAMERA)) {
Toast.makeText(activity, "Camera Permission is required for this app to run", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
}
// Read/Write Permission
if (permissionWriteExternal != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);

}
if (!listPermissionsNeeded.isEmpty()) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(activity,
listPermissionsNeeded.toArray(new String[listPermissionsNeeded.size()]),
REQUEST_PERMISSION_MULTIPLE);
return false;
}
return true;

As far as I know, this should be working. But you can try using the following function that works. It has a different method than yours.
String requiredPermission = "android.permission.READ_CONTACTS";
int checkVal = getContext().checkCallingOrSelfPermission(requiredPermission);
Now you can check:
if (checkVal==PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){}
Try by adding perms
inside String[]{}
it works for me..
for (int i = 0; i < perms.length; i++) {
if(ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,perms[i])!=PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
{
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,String[]{perms}, permsRequestCode);
break;
}
}
