Is it possible to open a server network socket from an android app without the root permission?

Question

I want to create a communication between two Android devices.

One is a server and another is a client.

What have you tried? What is the error message? See also: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4074808/java-socket-ioexception-permission-denied — Ciro Santilli Путлер Капут 六四事, Mar 02 '16 at 10:26

You have to add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/> permission in your Application's Manifest file
