ACCESS FINE LOCATION AndroidManifest Permissions Not Being Granted

Question

I am trying to utilize GPS in Android  2 2 and 2 3  but am getting the following error when I try to use the LocationManager object   WARN System err 522   java lang SecurityException  Provider network requires ACCESS FINE LOCATION or ACCESS COARSE LOCATION permission  I have researched the issue in other posts and they are typically due to issues with AndroidManifest xml   However  mine appears to be fine    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt manifest xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android    package  com thedigitalsean examples    android versionCode  1    android versionName  1 0  gt   lt application android icon   drawable icon  android label   string app name  gt       lt activity android name   GetLocation                android label   string app name  gt           lt intent-filter gt               lt action android name  android intent action MAIN    gt               lt category android name  android intent category LAUNCHER    gt           lt  intent-filter gt       lt  activity gt   lt  application gt   lt uses-permission android name  android permisssion ACCESS FINE LOCATION  gt  lt  uses-permission gt   lt uses-permission android name  android permisssion ACCESS COARSE LOCATION  gt  lt  uses-permission gt   lt uses-permission android name  android permisssion INTERNET  gt  lt  uses-permission gt   lt  manifest gt    Here is the offending line of code in my onCreate method in the GetLocation Activity  encased in a try catch block       LocationManager locManager    LocationManager getSystemService Context LOCATION SERVICE       final LocationListener locListener   new MyLocListener         try          locManager requestLocationUpdates LocationManager NETWORK PROVIDER  0  0  locListener             catch  SecurityException se             TextView findViewById R id infobox   setText se toString             se printStackTrace            This is the first app I have written where I need to request android permissions and have so far been unsuccessful in being granted any permissions whatsoever   Is there something I am missing in my manifest or perhaps in my eclipse configuration

Compatible with all SDK versions  android permission ACCESS FINE LOCATION became dangerous permission in Android M and requires user to manually grant it     In Android versions below Android M ContextCompat checkSelfPermission      always returns true if you add these permission s  in AndroidManifest xml   public void onSomeButtonClick                 if   permissionsGranted              ActivityCompat requestPermissions this  new String    Manifest permission ACCESS FINE LOCATION   123         else doLocationAccessRelatedJob               private Boolean permissionsGranted         return ContextCompat checkSelfPermission this  Manifest permission ACCESS FINE LOCATION     PackageManager PERMISSION GRANTED       Override public void onRequestPermissionsResult final int requestCode   NonNull final String   permissions   NonNull final int   grantResults        super onRequestPermissionsResult requestCode  permissions  grantResults       if  requestCode    123            if  grantResults length  gt  0  amp  amp  grantResults 0     PackageManager PERMISSION GRANTED                   Permission granted              doLocationAccessRelatedJob              else                  User refused to grant permission  You can add AlertDialog here             Toast makeText this   You didn t give permission to access device location   Toast LENGTH LONG  show                startInstalledAppDetailsActivity                       private void startInstalledAppDetailsActivity         Intent i   new Intent        i setAction Settings ACTION APPLICATION DETAILS SETTINGS       i addCategory Intent CATEGORY DEFAULT       i setData Uri parse  package     getPackageName          i addFlags Intent FLAG ACTIVITY NEW TASK       startActivity i       in AndroidManifest xml    lt uses-permission android name  android permission ACCESS FINE LOCATION    gt

I was having the same problem and could not figure out what I was doing wrong   Turns out  the auto-complete for Android Studio was changing the text to either all caps or all lower case  depending on whether I typed in upper case or lower cast words before the auto-complete    The OS was not registering the name due to this issue and I would get the error regarding a missing permission   As stated above  ensure your permissions are labeled correctly   Correct    lt uses-permission android name  android permission ACCESS FINE LOCATION    gt    Incorrect    lt uses-permission android name  ANDROID PERMISSION ACCESS FINE LOCATION    gt    Incorrect    lt uses-permission android name  android permission access fine location    gt    Though this may seem trivial  its easy to overlook   If there is some setting to make permissions non-case-sensitive  please add a comment with the instructions   Thank you
