Cannot change weather permissions on HTC One M9 I've managed to disable to location permissions to my weather app that shows on the lock screen (I do not remember what I did to create this problem).  I am using the "default" weather app.

When I go to the weather app, in settings, and chose permissions I am not allowed to change permissions. I get the following error.

"To change this permission, you first have to turn off screen overlay from Settings -&gt; Apps".


Weather does not appear in the screen overlay settings.

I have turned off Screen overlay for everything. And I still am not able to change the permission.

Any ideas what to try next?
I'm posting this in response to the comments above.

HTC delivered an android update to my phone and now I am able to change permissions on the weather app. I was able to remove the permission to my contacts and add back permission to location. The version of the Android OS now installed is 6.0 Marshmellow.   

I do not recall which version I had prior to the update.  I do believe the update fixed the problem however.

If there is other information you would like about the software versions on my phone please ask.  I can post as comments here.
