                    })
                    .create().show();

        } else {
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,
                    new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE}, REQUEST_READ_PHONE_STATE);
            granted = true;

        }
        return granted;
    }



}


for some reason telephonyManager.getLine1Number() returns null instead of the actuall device's
phone number
