Sully Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Hi every one , I am making some progress on creating an application that can do a simple ping. I have a small problem here, This is the error I am getting when I try to run the application from my phone. Note my phone is in Developer mode and all the possible settings in this mode that are needed are enabled. java.net.SocketException:socket failed :EACCES (Permission Denied) I have inserted the fowling three lines into the manifest file to set the permissions but they do not seem to work. <uses-permissions android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"></uses-permissions> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"></uses-permission> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission> Any suggestions ? I would be really thankful if any one had any one could help. Thanks All Fixed ! Thanks to all for the view Edited September 3, 2015 by Sully Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
