UPDATE_DEVICE_STATS permission

bluedude · Dec 4, 2012

Another one,

Which library needs the permission UPDATE_DEVICE_STATS. Google documentation says not for third parties.

Wondering if there will be some libraries that sneakingly ask more permissions then needed.

Is there a way to check which libraries need which permissions?

Cheers,

The hard way would be to construct a small app containing just the core libs and then progressively adding libs in order to check what permissions they demand.
Somehow I think that their permissions are or should be in the corresponding wiki.

As I wrote in the post about the wake permission:

Note that libraries do not add permissions. Only if you use (Dim) an object that requires a permission it gets added.

The permissions of each object type are listed in the documentation:
Basic4android (Basic for Android) - Android programming with Gui designer

You can also search the libraries xml files for: UPDATE_DEVICE_STATS
