The problem is that you had declared the permission and but user has not granted that permission

All permission in android are not same, some needs to be get access from user

You need to ask the user before accessing phone state and if the user deny it then you need to handle it

some reference may help you

Possible Unhandled Promise Rejection (id: 0): Error: Permission denied (while saving the image via "CameraRoll.saveToCameraRoll()")

Possible Unhandled Promise Rejection (id:0) Warning

adding the permissions in the manifest file does necessarily give them to the app. Some permissions are considered dangerous and the user can disable them anytime starting from android marshmallow. So they have to be checked explicitly programmatically before using them. Read react native documentation for how to do that. https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/permissionsandroid
