I want to grant android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION to my apk file.

adb command i used:

adb shell pm grant myPackageName android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION

but there is always the same error again and again:

Operation not allowed: java.lang.SecurityException: myPackageName has not requested permission android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION

Manifest.xml

<uses-sdk 
    android:minSdkVersion="14" 
    android:targetSdkVersion="22"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION" />

Permissions are already granted:

grantedPermissions:
  android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
  android.permission.GET_TASKS
  android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
  android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE
  android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS

  android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS

  android.permission.USE_CREDENTIALS
  com.skype.android.app.permission.C2D_MESSAGE

  android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS
  android.permission.READ_SYNC_STATS
  android.permission.READ_PROFILE
  android.permission.DISABLE_KEYGUARD
  android.permission.WRITE_SYNC_SETTINGS
  android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW
  android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS

  android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE
  com.skype.permission.ACCOUNT
  android.permission.READ_SYNC_SETTINGS
  android.permission.VIBRATE
  com.skype.android.app.permission.RECEIVE_ADM_MESSAGE

    @IntelliJAmiya This link is not for granting permissions ,is display permissions. I mean i got this error when i grant permissions. – Almett Nov 11 '15 at 06:19
  • Which device and version of Android are you using? I've tested the `pm grant` command on a Nexus 6 using Android 6 (MRA58N), it worked. – cuihtlauac Nov 14 '15 at 09:48
  • @cuihtlauac I am using nexus 5 Android 4.4, it doesn't work. I don't know why?Do you have any idea? – Almett Nov 14 '15 at 16:44

My phone is running android pie and it isn't rooted. An app that i installed required me to grant it permissions using adb. Initially I got the error

java.lang.SecurityException: grantRuntimePermission: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.GRANT_RUNTIME_PERMISSIONS.

After searching my developer options, one seemed interesting - Disable permission monitoring. It wasn't enabled. After enabling, ran the command

adb -d shell pm grant packageName android.permission.DUMP

It worked!

if you need grant in android 10+ ,plase try on usb debugging(safe mode) or usb install ,because my device is android 11 on Redmi 11

---- on off use grant ------

Exception occurred while executing 'grant':
java.lang.SecurityException: grantRuntimePermission: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.GRANT_RUNTIME_PERMISSIONS.
