Marshmallow permissions support #64

Closed jamorford closed 8 years ago

jamorford commented 8 years ago

Push notifications are currently broken on Android 6. The new permissions system is not granting the CD2M permission to apps correctly. Reinstalling the package does not grant the permissions either. Permission for apps compiled with the Android 6 SDK can be manually granted in settings, but I cannot confirm at the moment whether push messaging actually starts working after this. Android 5 and lower apps cannot be granted the permission at all, creating messages like:

901 3472 W ActivityManager: Permission Denial: Accessing service ComponentInfo{com.google.android.gms/org.microg.gms.gcm.PushRegisterService} from pid=9822, uid=10085 requires com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE

9822 9893 E AndroidRuntime: Caused by: java.lang.SecurityException: Not allowed to start service Intent { act=com.google.android.c2dm.intent.UNREGISTER pkg=com.google.android.gms (has extras) } without permission com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE

I also read on the XDA thread that UnifiedNLP/Network Location has some permission issues as well

It looks like Google account sign in within Google apps is also failing. The only Google app that I have found functional is the Play Store.

Not working: Drive (inc Docs, Sheets, Slides), Classroom, Admin

On Android 6 you currently need to grant receive c2dm permission in settings. This will be adjusted soon.

I can no longer see the permission in the list to be able to grant it in the latest version. Has this been fixed, or is that a bug?

C2DM / GCM does not require permission granting anymore since 7b74722c3d2ffd89bb4ac719e34290279de6c357

Regarding Google app sign in: You need to grant "Contacts" permission to Google apps manually if you want them to use your Google account. Third-party applications will ask for this permission before using the account so this does only apply to Google apps.
