Permission Denial: opening provider com.android.providers.contact.Contacts Provider2 from ProcessRecord.....

[faisalbasha1982]

Hi, I have Permission Denial error and it suggests me to add, android.permission.READ_CONTACTS or WRITE_CONTACTS into androidManifest.xml file. Even after adding those permissions in the androidManifest file, I am getting the same permission Denial error. Please help.

same issue.

Issue is solved by setting the permissions on the android phone manually via settings page. This is I heard should be manually enabled for debug-app.apk and not for the release mode apk.

I also had the same issue. For Release mode apk also doesn't work. I have to manually set the permission to access the contacts since app does not show access permission popup. Please help me!

HI, you can use react-native-permissions check and request contacts permission first. then it is normal.

On android you must request permissions beforehand

import { PermissionsAndroid } from 'react-native';
import Contacts from 'react-native-contacts';

PermissionsAndroid.request(
  PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.READ_CONTACTS,
  {
    'title': 'Contacts',
    'message': 'This app would like to view your contacts.'
  }
).then(() => {
   // do something in this 
})

              buttonNegative: "拒绝",
              buttonPositive: "确定"
            }
          )
          if (granted === PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED) {
            resolve()
          } else {
            toast('您已拒绝了通讯录的访问权限，请前往设置打开')
            reject()
          }
        } catch (error) {
          toast('权限获取失败')
          reject()
        }
      } else {
        resolve()
      }
    })
  }

通过这样的方法判断使用权限
