Regarding granular permissions on Android M.
In case the user denies twice the request for a permission,
Or that the user mark the "Never ask again".
How can I open/link directly to the app permissions settings?

Let's assume in AndroidManifest.xml you have:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CALENDAR"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS"/>
<!-- ETC. -->
Then, as in the below sample activity, we can check for existing/granted permissions and then send the user to app settings if we're missing any permission:
package com.example.permissions.myapplication;
import android.Manifest;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.provider.Settings;
import android.support.annotation.NonNull;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final int REQUEST_APP_SETTINGS = 168;
private static final String[] requiredPermissions = new String[]{
Manifest.permission.WRITE_CALENDAR,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS
/* ETC.. */
};
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
/* All version with SDK_INT < 22 grant permissions on install time. */
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 22 && !hasPermissions(requiredPermissions)) {
Toast.makeText(this, "Please grant all permissions", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
goToSettings();
}
}
private void goToSettings() {
Intent myAppSettings = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_APPLICATION_DETAILS_SETTINGS, Uri.parse("package:" + getPackageName()));
myAppSettings.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_DEFAULT);
myAppSettings.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivityForResult(myAppSettings, REQUEST_APP_SETTINGS);
}
public boolean hasPermissions(@NonNull String... permissions) {
for (String permission : permissions)
if (PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED != checkSelfPermission(permission))
return false;
return true;
}
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == REQUEST_APP_SETTINGS) {
if (hasPermissions(requiredPermissions)) {
Toast.makeText(this, "All permissions granted!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(this, "Permissions not granted.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
}
I just tried it on Nexus 6 / AndroidOS 6 (Marshmallow).
use this code for launch your app permission setting page
Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_APPLICATION_DETAILS_SETTINGS,
Uri.parse("package:" + getPackageName()));
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_DEFAULT);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
