DownloadManager.Request.setNotificationVisibility fails with SecurityException: invalid value for visibility: 2
I'm trying to use DownloadManager
in a Service
class of mine:
DownloadManager downloadManager = (DownloadManager) getSystemService(DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
//imageUri is a valid Uri
Request downloadRequest= new Request(imageUri);
//without this line, it works
downloadRequest.setNotificationVisibility(DownloadManager.Request.VISIBILITY_HIDDEN);
//subpath is valid
downloadRequest.setDestinationInExternalFilesDir(this, null, subPath);
downloadManager.enqueue(downloadRequest);
Without setNotificationVisibility
, this code works well. But it displays a notification, that I don't want, because I use this code for lazy-loading images in a ListView
.
I understand, this notification can be hidden with
downloadRequest.setNotificationVisibility(DownloadManager.Request.VISIBILITY_HIDDEN);
But in that case, my application crashes with:
02-19 02:24:24.055: E/AndroidRuntime(2572): java.lang.SecurityException: Invalid value for visibility: 2 02-19 02:24:24.055: E/AndroidRuntime(2572): at android.os.Parcel.readException(Parcel.java:1327) 02-19 02:24:24.055: E/AndroidRuntime(2572): at android.database.DatabaseUtils.readExceptionFromParcel(DatabaseUtils.java:181) 02-19 02:24:24.055: E/AndroidRuntime(2572): at android.database.DatabaseUtils.readExceptionFromParcel(DatabaseUtils.java:135) 02-19 02:24:24.055: E/AndroidRuntime(2572): at android.content.ContentProviderProxy.insert(ContentProviderNative.java:415) 02-19 02:24:24.055: E/AndroidRuntime(2572): at android.content.ContentResolver.insert(ContentResolver.java:730) 02-19 02:24:24.055: E/AndroidRuntime(2572): at android.app.DownloadManager.enqueue(DownloadManager.java:885) 02-19 02:24:24.055: E/AndroidRuntime(2572): at MyService.getImage(MyService.java:112)
Whats' wrong with setNotificationVisibility
? How can I had the notification?
You need the following permission in the manifest as per documentation:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION" />
Note
Most of the manifest permissions will be autocompleted by Android Studio, but this will not be auto-completed.
but also need to add that permission to rn-fetch-blob's manifest that is not given in it.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION" />
