(Android Studio Speech Recognizer) I'm getting error 9 (insufficient Privileges) even though I have given it RECORD_AUDIO and INTERNET

Question

package blessupboys.speechtest;
import android.app.Activity;

import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.ConnectivityManager;
import android.os.Bundle;

import android.speech.RecognizerIntent;
import android.speech.SpeechRecognizer;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import android.util.Log;



public class VoiceRecognitionTest extends Activity implements OnClickListener
{

    private TextView mText;
    private SpeechRecognizer sr;
    private static final String TAG = "MyStt3Activity";
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_voice_recognition_test);
        Button speakButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_speak);
        mText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
        speakButton.setOnClickListener(this);
        sr = SpeechRecognizer.createSpeechRecognizer(this);
        sr.setRecognitionListener(new listener());
    }

    class listener implements RecognitionListener
    {
        public void onReadyForSpeech(Bundle params)
        {
            Log.d(TAG, "onReadyForSpeech");
        }
        public void onBeginningOfSpeech()
        {
            Log.d(TAG, "onBeginningOfSpeech");
        }
        public void onRmsChanged(float rmsdB)
        {
            Log.d(TAG, "onRmsChanged");
        }

            mText.setText("error " + error);
        }
        public void onResults(Bundle results)
        {
            String str = new String();
            Log.d(TAG, "onResults " + results);
            ArrayList data = results.getStringArrayList(SpeechRecognizer.RESULTS_RECOGNITION);
            for (int i = 0; i < data.size(); i++)
            {
                Log.d(TAG, "result " + data.get(i));
                str += data.get(i);
            }
            mText.setText("results: "+String.valueOf(data.size()));
        }
        public void onPartialResults(Bundle partialResults)
        {
            Log.d(TAG, "onPartialResults");
        }
        public void onEvent(int eventType, Bundle params)
        {
            Log.d(TAG, "onEvent " + eventType);
        }
    }
    public void onClick(View v) {
        if (v.getId() == R.id.btn_speak)
        {
            Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
            intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
            intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_CALLING_PACKAGE,"voice.recognition.test");

            intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_MAX_RESULTS,5);
            sr.startListening(intent);
            Log.i("111111","11111111");
        }
    }
}

And My Android Manifest File looks like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="blessupboys.speechtest">

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">

        <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
        <activity
            android:name=".VoiceRecognitionTest"
            android:label="@string/title_activity_voice_recognition_test"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar"></activity>
    </application>

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

</manifest>

My logs show that it stops because of error 9 generated in the onError() function.

I am trying to run this sample program to try to get familiar with the Speech Recognizer software..

Could this be an issue being caused by the fact that I'm running it on android studio rather than a real device? I am pretty stuck on this.

Answer 1

It was just a problem with it not being supported on emulators. It works on a physical device.
