Constant Error: java.lang.SecurityException

[TrophyNostalgia]

Hey guys,

So I'm not sure if it was after a recent update, but in the last couple of days my HTC 10 has erratically started popping with dialogue on-screen that states the following error message:

"Error: java.lang.SecurityException:
PermissionDenial: writing
com.htc.launcher.LauncherProvider uri
content://com.htc.launcher.settings/favorites?notify=true from pid=28864
uid=10156 requires com.htc.launch
er.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS, or
grantUriPermission()"

This appears for a brief second or two when I switch between applications or when I return to the home screen. It appears that something is attempting to perform a write function or setting adjustment for an HTC Launcher application? However, I don't do any coding, breaking, etc with my phone. Everything online points to this as being a developer code error. Any thoughts how to get rid of this or why it's happening in the first place? :-X

Thanks!

Bump!

I'm having this same etror, every message i send results in this error.

Please advise.

Same here but only when using Textra.

Me too! This pops up every time I send or receive a message on Textra but stops when switching to "Messages" app. Would this mean the problem is on Textra's end?

Same issue here. It seems to have started when my phone updated Textra. It's definitely all Textra on my end. Any news as to a fix?

Cheers

 

[pootyash]

Not sure... I sent a message to Textra. Sure hope they fix it; I love their app!

I'm on Verizon... Other carriers also affected?

Same problem sending and receiving messages on AT&T M8. I switched to Android messages to avoid the error, set it as my default app then went back to Textra. Now I am no longer getting this error, but I've only sent a few messages since. We'll see if it's fixed, maybe this will work for someone else.

I'm using textra too now that you mention it, guess it must be a Textra thing :O

Just heard back from Textra:

"Known issue. Pls disable Badge App Icon in Textra settings which will fix it while the dev team is working on it."

Thank you, this has been driving me crazy. At least there's an easy way to suppress the error

Disabled badge icon. Still receiving message.
Anyone else still having problem?

 

[pootyash]

Disabled badge icon. Still receiving message. ??????
Anyone else still having problem?

No, this stopped the problem for me. Did you disable badge within the actual app's settings?

 

[kwsv]

Yep

I to started getting this error a few days ago..I seen textra mentioned in a comment below because I use textra too. Just uninstalled all apps downloaded in the last few days but it's still happening. It's annoying as hell.

 

[Haley Brown2]

Yay thanks a bunch

 

[TrophyNostalgia]

Haha, wow ok it wasn't just me. I confirmed it was Textra too within the last couple of days. Hope they fix this soon.

Just heard back from Textra:

"Known issue. Pls disable Badge App Icon in Textra settings which will fix it while the dev team is working on it."

This worked for me too!!

Textra update this morning seems to have fixed it. I turned back on the Badge App Icon setting and did not get error.
