Put these permission outside the  lt application gt  tag preferable before the tag  I tried it and it works for me    lt uses-permission android name  android permission INTERNET    gt   lt uses-permission android name  android permission ACCESS NETWORK STATE   gt

User · Answer

Be sure that the place where you adding    lt uses-permission android name  android permission INTERNET   gt    is right   You should write it like that in AndroidManifest xml     lt manifest xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      package  com project  gt    lt uses-permission android name  android permission INTERNET   gt    Dont make my mistakes

I also had this problem  it was weird that it worked on my lollipop emulator  but not on my actual kitkat device   Android Studio will now force you to write the permission upper case  and that s the problem   Add   lt uses-permission android name  android permission INTERNET    gt   lt uses-permission android name  android permission ACCESS NETWORK STATE   gt    Above the  application tab and it will work

Write your permission before the application tag as given below    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt manifest xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      package  com someapp sample  gt        lt uses-permission android name  android permission INTERNET   gt        lt application         android allowBackup  true          android icon   mipmap ic launcher          android label   string app name          android theme   style AppTheme  gt

User · Answer

Well it s a very confusing kind of bug  There could be many reasons    You are not mentioning the permissions in right place  Like right above application  You are not using small letters  In some case you also have to add Network state permission  One which was my case there are some blank lines in manifest lines  Like there might be a blank line between permission tag and application line  Remove them and you are done  Hope it will help

I resolved this error  I was adding permissions inside Application tag by mistake  I putted outside and it works fine  Hope it helps for someone

NOTE  I wrote this answer in Jun 2013  so it s bit dated nowadays  Many things changed in Android platform since version 6  Marshmallow  released late 2015   making the whole problem more less obsolete  However I believe this post can still be worth reading as general problem analysis approach example   Exception you are getting  SecurityException  Permission denied  missing INTERNET permission     clearly indicates that you are not allowed to do networking  That s pretty indisputable fact  But how can this happen  Usually it s either due to missing  lt uses-permission android name  quot android permission INTERNET quot    gt  entry in your AndroidManifest xml file or  as internet permission is granted at installation not at run time  by long standing  missed bug in Android framework that causes your app to be successfully installed  but without expected permission grant  My Manifest is correct  so how can this happen  Theoretically  presence of uses-permission in Manifest perfectly fulfills the requirement and from developer standpoint is all that s needed to be done to be able to do networking  Moreover  since permissions are shown to the user during installation  the fact your app ended installed on user s device means s he granted what you asked for  otherwise installation is cancelled   so assumption that if your code is executed then all requested permissions are granted is valid  And once granted  user cannot revoke the permission other way than uninstalling the app completely as standard Android framework  from AOSP  offers no such feature at the moment  But things are getting more tricky if you also do not mind your app running on rooted devices too  There re tools available in Google Play your users can install to control permission granted to installed apps at run-time - for example  Permissions Denied and others  This can also be done with CyanogenMod  vendor brand  i e  LG s  or other custom ROM  featuring various type of  quot privacy managers quot  or similar tools  So if app is blocked either way  it s basically blocked intentionally by the user and if so  it is really more user problem in this case  or s he do not understand what certain options tools really do and what would be the consequences  than yours  because standard SDK  and most apps are written with that SDK in mind  simply does not behave that way  So I strongly doubt this problem occurs on  quot standard quot   non-rooted device with stock  or vendor like Samsung  HTC  Sony etc  ROM  I do not want to crash    Properly implemented permission management and org blocking must deal with the fact that most apps may not be ready for the situation where access to certain features is both granted and not accessible at the same time  as this is kind of contradiction where app uses manifest to request access at install time  Access control done right should must make all things work as before  and still limit usability using techniques in scope of expected behavior of the feature  For example  when certain permission is granted  i e  GPS  Internet access  such feature can be made available from the app user perspective  i e  you can turn GPS on  or try to connect   the altered implementation can provide no real data - i e  GPS can always return no coordinates  like when you are indoor or have no satellite  quot fix quot   Internet access can granted as before  but you can make no successful connection as there s no data coverage or routing  Such scenarios should be expected in normal usage as well  therefore it should be handled by the apps already  As this simply can happen during normal every day usage  any crash in such situation should be most likely  be related to application bugs  We lack too much information about the environment on which this problem occurs to diagnose problem w o guessing  but as kind of solution  you may consider using setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler   to catch such unexpected exceptions in future and i e  simply show user detailed information what permission your app needs instead of just crashing  Please note that using this will most likely conflict with tools like Crittercism  ACRA and others  so be careful if you use any of these  Notes Please be aware that android permission INTERNET is not the only networking related permission you may need to declare in manifest in attempt to successfully do networking  Having INTERNET permission granted simply allows applications to open network sockets  which is basically fundamental requirement to do any network data transfer   But in case your network stack library would like to get information about networks as well  then you will also need android permission ACCESS NETWORK STATE in your Manifest  which is i e  required by HttpUrlConnection client  see tutorial    Addendum  2015-07-16  Please note that Android 6  aka Marshmallow  introduced completely new permission management mechanism called Runtime Permissions  It gives user more control on what permission are granted  also allows selective grant  or lets one revoke already granted permissions w o need to app removal   This       introduces a new permissions model  where users can now directly manage app permissions at runtime  This model gives users improved visibility and control over permissions  while streamlining the installation and auto-update processes for app developers  Users can grant or revoke permissions individually for installed apps   However  the changes do not affect INTERNET or ACCESS NETWORK STATE permissions  which are considered  quot Normal quot  permissions  The user does not need to explicitly grant these permission  See behavior changes description page for details and make sure your app will behave correctly on newer systems too  It s is especially important when your project set targetSdk to at least 23 as then you must support new  permissions model  detailed documentation   If you are not ready  ensure you keep targetSdk to at most 22 as this ensures even new Android will use old permission system when your app is installed

Just like Tom mentioned  When you start with capital A then autocomplete will complete it as   ANDROID PERMISSION INTERNET   When you start typing with a then autocomplete will complete it as  android permission INTERNET   The second one is the correct one
