I met a crash issue when instant app running on Samsung device, here is the crash log:

  Fatal Exception: java.lang.SecurityException: Setting aod_show_state is not accessible from ephemeral package xx.xx.xx

         at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:1374)

Seems like it's trying to access the aod_show_state Settings(which is the specific feature called "Always on Display" on Samsung device), and it requires permission WRITE_SETTINGS/WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS, and the instant app does not support these two permissions, then app crashed...

Is there any way to solve this problem?

  • For instant app WRITE_SETTINGS/WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permissions not allowed for now. can you check more info https://developer.android.com/topic/instant-apps/faqs.html – Prags Mar 16 '18 at 13:11
  • Same as https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49141740/fatal-exception-java-lang-securityexception-setting-enable-navbar-is-not-acces - known issue https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/72611334 – TWL Mar 16 '18 at 18:01
  • Should be fixed by the OEM applying https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/base/+/577142 – Prags Mar 17 '18 at 09:00
  • Did you try posting this in [android-instant-apps issue tracker](https://github.com/googlesamples/android-instant-apps/issues)? If this is an issue in Android O, you may get a more accurate answer. Hope this helps. – Mr.Rebot Mar 18 '18 at 12:35
