This is not a B4A problem but is a general problem... i saw it yesterday at a new device (android 15)...

In my app have the Permission and the special permission needed from Google... but saw this message...

talking about these:
B4X:
AddPermission(android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW)
...
android.settings.action.MANAGE_OVERLAY_PERMISSION

how can i fix it or say at my clients to setup it right ?

I don't know if this will help, but on devices that don't have a UI to enable this permission and wont automatically enable it via the manifest, one workaround is below, but it requires using ADB:

B4X:
adb shell pm grant com.myapps.packagename android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW
