I want to check how new permission model works so in app's settings I disable Contacts
. Then I go to app and try to read Contacts
and ... it kinda works:
try {
Uri result = data.getData();
int contentIdx;
cursor = getContentResolver().query(result, null, null, null, null);
contentIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER);
if(cursor.moveToFirst()) {
content = cursor.getInt(contentIdx);
}
if(content > 0) {
contentIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME);
if(cursor.moveToFirst()) {
name = cursor.getString(contentIdx);
}
contentIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(BaseColumns._ID);
if(cursor.moveToFirst()) {
content = cursor.getLong(contentIdx);
}
cursor = managedQuery(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, new String[] { Phone.NUMBER }, Data.CONTACT_ID + "=?", new String[] { String.valueOf(content) }, null);
if(cursor.moveToFirst()) {
number = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.NUMBER));
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
//SecurityException
}
- I'm able to read Contact's Name
- when I try to read Contact's Number
SecurityException
is thrown
java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: reading com.android.providers.contacts.HtcContactsProvider2 uri content://com.android.contacts/data/phones from pid=20123, uid=10593 requires android.permission.READ_CONTACTS, or grantUriPermission()
Why is that?

Android marshmallow have new permissions system.
You need to request permissions at run time.
http://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html.
Example:
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
switch (v.getId()){
case R.id.tv_contact:{
askForContactPermission();
break;
}
}
}
private void getContact(){
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
}
public void askForContactPermission(){
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(),Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// Should we show an explanation?
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(getActivity(),
Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS)) {
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
builder.setTitle("Contacts access needed");
builder.setPositiveButton(android.R.string.ok, null);
builder.setMessage("please confirm Contacts access");//TODO put real question
builder.setOnDismissListener(new DialogInterface.OnDismissListener() {
@TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
@Override
public void onDismiss(DialogInterface dialog) {
requestPermissions(
new String[]
{Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS}
, PERMISSION_REQUEST_CONTACT);
}
});
builder.show();
// Show an expanation to the user *asynchronously* -- don't block
// this thread waiting for the user's response! After the user
// sees the explanation, try again to request the permission.
} else {
// No explanation needed, we can request the permission.
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(),
new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_CONTACTS},
PERMISSION_REQUEST_CONTACT);
// MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_CONTACTS is an
// app-defined int constant. The callback method gets the
// result of the request.
}
}else{
getContact();
}
}

@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,
String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case PERMISSION_REQUEST_CONTACT: {
// If request is cancelled, the result arrays are empty.
