Android Question Can not upload apk to play store due to permission issues.

[microbox]

This will be my first time to put my app on play store...and I appreciate if anyone can give advice how to pass the requirements that google support is requiring me. They gave me a feedback which I don't totally sure what I'm doing wrong, but I believe it mostly regards to the permissions.
Kindly check the link https://support.google.com/googlepl...303#intended&exceptions&invalid&alternatives&
Below is my manifest file (modified)...again thank you for any help you can advice.

no more phone calling. only allowed for system apps (default apps on phone). you can self-install for you own use, but you can't distribute.

Have not yet tried but can I use this..

StartActivity(phnsms.Call("PhoneNumber"))

whether something works on your device is irrelevant; you can't distribute via play an app that makes calls directly. only an app registered as the default phone caller can. you app can use the default caller via an intent. if you can live with that, change your code and try again. your app may have other issues. the message from google pretty much covers it.

Thank you for the time.. my app requires to make calls. I thought my code is already making call with the default via intent.
This is the code I used

Sub Call()
    Dim i As Intent
    i.Initialize(i.ACTION_CALL,"tel:" & DataCenterMobile ) ' & telnum
    StartActivity(i)
End Sub
