[Android] SecurityException whilst executing TouchID.isSupported()

[edcrampin]

Hi,

I seem to be getting a strange error occurring whilst my Android device is executing TouchID.isSupported(). Stack trace as below:

java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: getCurrentUser() from pid=11470, uid=10183 requires android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS

I understand the INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS permission is part of system-level permissions, so not quite sure on the resolution of this one?

Device: Samsung J5

Thanks.

@edcrampin did you see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28134128/android-permission-interact-across-users-full ? Can you say where you app installed (system partition?) ?

Also please read: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0 Maybe you need to add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.USE_FINGERPRINT" /> to manifest...

It could be you're using a secondary user on the device that is not the main user that has registered their fingerprints?
