You can't either grant or deny a permission programmatically in this way (pseudo code):

if(buttonpressed){
    getPermission(PERMISSiON.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE).deny();
}

And similarly, you cannot allow a permission like this. You can, however direct the user to the permission screen and before doing that prompt the user to enable/disable the permission:

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_APPLICATION_DETAILS_SETTINGS);
Uri uri = Uri.fromParts("package", getPackageName(), null);
intent.setData(uri);
startActivity(intent);

Please note that this only works if you target API 23+, and only works with dangerous permissions. You cannot disable the normal permissions (like INTERNET)
