How to show dialog to the user to change settings to allow app to make and manage calls after the user selects "Don't ask again"

I am trying to show the permission dialog even if the user selects "Don't ask again" when they click a button using the below code. But this doesn't seem to work. Please help

Dim context As JavaObject
context.InitializeStatic("anywheresoftware.b4a.BA")
context = context.GetField("applicationContext")
Dim settings As JavaObject
settings.InitializeStatic("android.provider.Settings.System")
settings.RunMethod("putInt", Array As Object(context.RunMethod("getContentResolver", Null), _
"READ_PHONE_STATE", 1 ))

It is not possible to show the dialog. You need to ask the user to enable the permission in the device settings.

Atleast it should take the user to this screen.

Is this a question or a comment? This behavior is controlled by the OS, not B4A.

You can help user to change settings. For example,

Dim Intent As Intent
Intent.Initialize ("android.settings.APPLICATION_DETAILS_SETTINGS", "package:" & Application.PackageName)
StartActivity(Intent)

Semen Matusovskiy, you are right. But using your code, the user should click on permissions to go to that screen. I am looking for an option to go to App Permissions screen directly.

Why do you think that it's possible to do something outside https://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings ?
Did you know an app, which goes to App Permissions directly ?
