Android Question Screen Brightness Library

[Azhar]

Hi

I'm trying to use the 3rd Party Brightness library.
Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong with the permissions?

The problem is that the Brightness command doesn't raise the Activity_PermissionResult request.

Thanks

Sub btnTap_Click

  
    'brightness from 0 to 255
    rp.CheckAndRequest("android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS")
    Wait For Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, Result As Boolean)

and...

Sub Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, Result As Boolean)
    Log("In Activity_PermissionResult")
    Log("Permission is " & Permission & "  Result is " & Result)

    If Permission = "android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS" Then
        If Result Then
            Log("Permission Granted")
            br.SetScreenBrightnessMode(br.MODE_MANUAL)
            br.SetScreenBrightness(10)
        Else
            'permission not granted so do nothing
            Log("Permission is NOT Granted")
        End If
      
    Else
        Log("some other permission request")
    End If
  
End Sub


and the Manifest Editor looks like this:
'This code will be applied to the manifest file during compilation.
'You do not need to modify it in most cases.
'See this link for for more information: https://www.b4x.com/forum/showthread.php?p=78136
AddManifestText(
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="5" android:targetSdkVersion="26"/>
<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true"
    android:normalScreens="true"
    android:smallScreens="true"
    android:anyDensity="true"/>)
SetApplicationAttribute(android:icon, "@drawable/icon")
SetApplicationAttribute(android:label, "$LABEL$")
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Themes.DarkTheme)
'End of default text.
AddPermission(android.permission.ACCESS_NOTIFICATION_POLICY)
AddPermission(android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS)

WRITE_SETTINGS is not a standard permission. You need to request it in a special way that is demonstrated here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/permission-write_settings.94311/post-597465
Ignore the part about Ringtone and EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission. They are not related.

Ok thanks Erel. I think I'll practice with a dedicated app to get permissions sorted in order to learn from it.
