I have tried everything I could find by researching. Nothing is working. I have an Activity with a FragmentDialog. In this dialog, I have an image view with a button. When this button is pressed, an alert pops up to take pic, choose pic from gallery or cancel. Both the cancel and the gallery buttons work great, but when I try to take a photo, I get the error message in the title:
FATAL EXCEPTION: java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: starting Intent { act=android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE cmp=com.lge.camera/.app.CameraActivity } from ProcessRecord{c6d8bdf 7649:com.devhopes.ryde/u0a152} (pid=7649, uid=10152) with revoked permission android.permission.CAMERA
Below is my DialogFragment and Manifest Code:

In the Android Monitor, it seems to point at 3 lines in particular:
If you are targeting API Level 23 or more, then you should force get permissions like below(contains several permissions, you can add or remove based on your requirement). Put this in a separate class:
public static List<String> checkAndRequestPermissions(Context context) {
int camera = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, android.Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
int readStorage = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
int writeStorage = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
int fineLoc = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION);
int coarseLoc = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION);
List<String> listPermissionsNeeded = new ArrayList<>();
if (camera != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(android.Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
}
if (readStorage != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(android.Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
}
if (writeStorage != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
}
if (fineLoc != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION);
}
if (coarseLoc != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
listPermissionsNeeded.add(android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION);
}
return listPermissionsNeeded;
}
And in your activity:
public static final int REQUEST_ID_MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS = 1; // Declare this integer globally
Add this method(to retrieve permissions):
private boolean permissions(List<String> listPermissionsNeeded) {
if (!listPermissionsNeeded.isEmpty()) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, listPermissionsNeeded.toArray
(new String[listPermissionsNeeded.size()]), REQUEST_ID_MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS);
return false;
}
return true;
}
And force get permissions like this:
// In my case I've put the 'checkAndRequestPermissions' method in a separate class named 'PermissionUtils'
List<String> permissionList = PermissionUtils.checkAndRequestPermissions(this);
if (permissions(permissionList)) {
dispatchTakePictureIntent(); // call your camera instead of this method
}
