Keeps asking for Phone Permissions to join meetings

On Android, all of a sudden, Teams repeatedly says, "Teams Needs Permission" "If you want to place a call or join a meeting, go to settings and allow Phone permission to Teams."

It then takes you to Android Settings for the Teams app, and the "phone" permission IS allowed.

I've rebooted.

Cleared cache.

Cleared data

Reset the database.

Left developer preview.

Reinstalled Teams

Left the Beta and done all of the above over and over.

It isn't honoring the permissions that are set. So I can't join any meetings. Please advise.

    I had the same issue and I've solved it in the following way:

    1. Uninstall an app.
    2. Install it again and DO NOT OPEN it yet.
    3. Go to Settings and add all relevant permissions to Teams app + uncheck the Android setting "De-activate permissions if not used"
    4. Start the Teams app then and enjoy!:-)

    Agree! Today's version (beta) seems to be the fix for this issue :)

    And still no response from Microsoft. Must not care if Android users can access their app?

    My IT instructed me to unintall Intelligent hub and all work-related apps, then re-enroll. Worked!

    Only relevant if you use Intelligent Hub perhaps
