My app was sent a stack trace for device Y625-U21 (HWY625-U), the app doesn't ask for READ_PHONE_STATE because the docs say nothing about using this permission for getting dateFormat. We have tested the app in various devices and this doesn't happen.

java.lang.SecurityException: Requires READ_PHONE_STATE: Neither user 10149 nor current process has android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE.

    Presumably, the manufacturer (or developer of a custom ROM on that device) screwed up and added this dependency. Other than to wrap `getDateFormat()` in a `try`/`catch` block and have some fallback implementation, there is little that you can do about this. – CommonsWare Nov 02 '15 at 18:04

I can say that when your app gets a lot of installs in Google Play you will receive a lot of strange crash reports in Google Developer console. Sometimes there is nothing you can do with it and you have to put your code in try/catch block.

I don't know all the details about your case, but in mine it was the only solution.

try {
    //your code here
} catch (SecurityException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    //do smth in this scenario
}

include this permission in manifest file READ_PHONE_STATE You are getting this exception becoz you haven't declare this permission in manifest file.
