Bluetooth permission is missing - but my app doesn't use it

Question

My Current app is pretty much working except that it occasionally throws an Error for which I have no explanation:

E/AudioManagerAndroid﹕ BLUETOOTH permission is missing!

No further infos given... My App has nothing to do with Bluetooth, so i am wondering where this error comes from. The closest thing might be the ringtone manager that I access to get the default alarm tone to use for my notification.

Has anyone experienced the same, and possibly knows a fix? It doesn't crash the app for me but I have the impression that it does crash the app on a testing friends phone (no logcat from him, because he is hundreds of miles away and doesn't know anything about these things)

Answer 1

Have you tried adding permission in AndroidManifest.xml?

• Just in case, this is the command :

  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" />

then run the program again to see if the issue has been fixed.

• Do your app transfer data via bluetooth?

E.g. transfer data in music player apps or transfer data to control light/fan to turn On/Off. If that's not the case I think there may be some kind of bugs with android IDE, it should be fixed when updating android studio to the latest version.

I know it's been almost a decade since you asked this one but I hope it helps :D .
