I am getting this error

Fatal Exception: java.lang.SecurityException: InforService: Neither user 10133 nor current process has android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE.

manifest.xml has

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE"/>
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE"/>
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE"/>
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_MULTICAST_STATE"/>

This error is currently happening on Android Operating system 8 and 9.

How can this be fix

Thanks

Solution

  • You cannot programmatically enable or disable wifi anymore For older devices do this:

    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.Q) {
    wifimanager.setWifiEnabled(false);
}
