Can't set permisssions on Android 12 (can't authorize) [nativescript-imagepicker] #342

Closed YavorBorissov closed 7 months ago

Issue occurs on Android 12 Emulator device Pixel 8 (API 31)

What happens is when I select the device that runs Android 12 and click the button that should upload the image - nothing happens (authorization fails). I've tried it with Android 11, 13, and 14 and it works with no issues. As seen on the screenshot even when I go in settings I don't have the option to turn this particular permission on. (I'm also linking my github repo where the issue is replicated)

The issue was solved in the Nativescript discord group. Here's the thread ID for anyone interested 1226816239817723935.

Here was the solution provided:

In your AndroidManifest.xml change the uses-permission of these to include the restrictions:

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" tools:replace="android:maxSdkVersion" android:maxSdkVersion="32" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" tools:replace="android:maxSdkVersion" android:maxSdkVersion="32" />

adding xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" to the root element.

Huge thanks to jcassidyav on discord for helping out.
