If you are explicitly supporting 1.6 and up, users are NOT shown these
permissions, since you have set android:targetSdk="4" so the platform will
not automatically add those permissions.

If you have not set the targetSdk to 4 or higher, then you are an older app,
and the platform must automatically give you those permissions, because on
previous versions of the platform there was no restriction on applications
doing these things.

Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to
provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.  All such
questions should be posted on public forums, where I and others can see and
answer them.
