I am getting this error after i am try to updated my compileSdkVersion andTargetSdkversion greater than 22. Seems like I am doing any GUI task in my doInBackground method but i am unable to figure it out. I would be much thankful for a solution.

This is my stack trace:

You need to add ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION or ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION as permissions to your Android manifest file.

If you are targeting API 22 only then you need to add these 2 permission in your android manifest file 

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>

And if you are targeting for Android Marshmallow(Api 23 and above) you need to give runtime permission in your app.

  • thanks for your answer. I already added that two permissions in my manifest file. Still my app is crashing . I think i will try giving runtime permission in my app. i would like to ask is this what you are talking about https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html , if not please provide me the right link if its possible. would be much thankful – LanguageMaster Feb 17 '17 at 08:38
  • Yes this only. Or you can google it on how to add runtime permission of coarse location in android – swetabh suman Feb 17 '17 at 08:59

Add these to your AndroidManifest.xml before application tag

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

Also for Android version >= 23, you need to request permissions in run-time

     if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(YourActivity.this,
                            Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
                            != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
                            &&
                            ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(YourActivity.this,
                                    Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION)
                                    != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                        askForLocationPermissions();
      } else {
          //do your work
     }

And

private void askForLocationPermissions() {

        // Should we show an explanation?
        if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this,
                Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)) {

            new android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog.Builder(this)
                    .setTitle("Location permessions needed")
                    .setMessage("you need to allow this permission!")
                    .setPositiveButton("Sure", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(YourActivity.this,
                                    new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION},
                                    LOCATION_PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE);
                        }
                    })
                    .setNegativeButton("Not now", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
//                                        //Do nothing
                        }
                    })
                    .show();

            // Show an expanation to the user *asynchronously* -- don't block
            // this thread waiting for the user's response! After the user
            // sees the explanation, try again to request the permission.

        } else {

            // No explanation needed, we can request the permission.
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,
                    new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION},
                    LOCATION_PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE);

            // MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION is an
            // app-defined int constant. The callback method gets the
            // result of the request.
        }
    }

Also

@Override
    public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String permissions[], @NonNull int[] grantResults) {
        switch (requestCode) {
            case LOCATION_PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE:
                if (isPermissionGranted(permissions, grantResults, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)) {
                    //Do you work
                } else {
                    Toast.makeText(this, "Can not proceed! i need permission" , Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                }
                break;
        }
    }

And

   public static boolean isPermissionGranted(@NonNull String[] grantPermissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults,
                                              @NonNull String permission) {
        for (int i = 0; i < grantPermissions.length; i++) {
            if (permission.equals(grantPermissions[i])) {
                return grantResults[i] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }
