Dec 20, 2015 at 14:23 comment added Izzy @AndrewT. saw that one, yes. But it mostly says census detected it there (strong indicator, though). Doesn't Huawei have its own namespace for perms, like others (Samsung e.g. uses com.sec.android.* – so I thought Huawei-specifics are covered by com.huawei.android, as that census list suggests as well)?

Dec 20, 2015 at 14:01 comment added Izzy Though the name suggests an Android core permission, no details on this can be found in official places (e.g. Android Developers or the code at Github). Still, tons of apps use this permission. I always wonder how devs find out they might need it – guess they're the only ones able to answer your question.
