Android Question Set Volume- error

[kisoft]

Hi everyone

I use this code to set the ringtone volume to the maximum value

  Dim p As Phone
    '  p.SetMute(p.VOLUME_RING,False)
      p.SetVolume(p.VOLUME_RING, p.GetMaxVolume(p.VOLUME_RING), False)

Unfortunately, this error appears on Lg G6 ( SDK "26")

Error occurred on line: 287 (Main)

On the "19" SDK, the code worked well. This error only appears when the ringer is turned off. Can this blockade be bypassed?

try to add runtime permission to access the volume settings

HI

I added all from the list

    Starter.rp.CheckAndRequest(Starter.rp.PERMISSION_RECEIVE_SMS)
    Wait For Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, PResult As Boolean)
    If PResult = False Then
        MsgboxAsync("No permission to access RECIVE SMS", "")
        Return
    Else
        Log("OK")
    End If
    
    Starter.rp.CheckAndRequest(Starter.rp.PERMISSION_SEND_SMS)
    Wait For Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, PResult As Boolean)
    If PResult = False Then
        MsgboxAsync("No permission to access SEND SMS", "")
        Return
    Else
        Log("OK")
    End If
  
    Starter.rp.CheckAndRequest(Starter.rp.PERMISSION_ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)    '
    Wait For Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, PResult As Boolean)
    If PResult = False Then
        MsgboxAsync("No permission to access lOCATION", "")
        Return
    Else
        Log("OK")
    End If
  
    Starter.rp.CheckAndRequest(Starter.rp.PERMISSION_READ_PHONE_STATE)  '
    Wait For Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, PResult As Boolean)
    If PResult = False Then
        MsgboxAsync("No permission to access PHONE STATE", "")
        Return
    Else
        Dim pid As PhoneId
        Log("phone id: " & pid)
    End If

NO

You have two options:

1. Catch this error and don't do anything. If the user choose to not be disturbed then it makes sense to respect it.

2.

Sub ChangeVolume
   Dim p As Phone
   If p.SdkVersion >= 24 Then
       Dim NotificationManager As JavaObject
       NotificationManager = NotificationManager.InitializeContext.RunMethod("getSystemService", Array("notification"))
       If NotificationManager.RunMethod("isNotificationPolicyAccessGranted", Null) = False Then
           Dim in As Intent
           in.Initialize("android.settings.NOTIFICATION_POLICY_ACCESS_SETTINGS", "")
           Sleep(500) 'let the first Activity_Resume be handled. Important if this code is called from Activity_Create.
           StartActivity(in)
           Wait For Activity_Resume
           Log("after resume")
           If NotificationManager.RunMethod("isNotificationPolicyAccessGranted", Null) = False Then
               Log("no permission")
               Return
           End If
       End If

   End If
   p.SetVolume(p.VOLUME_RING, p.GetMaxVolume(p.VOLUME_RING), False)
End Sub

Manifest editor:

AddPermission(android.permission.ACCESS_NOTIFICATION_POLICY)

Thank you for your answer. I will not check it today.

HI
I had a problem on LG G3 (Android 6.0). The application was closed without showing an error.
I changed to:

 If p.SdkVersion >= 24 Then

Works now, Lg G3 is skipped. It works very well on other phones.
Thank you for your help.
