Hi all - I and my colleagues at UC Berkeley have set up a web site for developers trying to figure out what permissions to add to their applications: http://www.android-permissions.org. It provides:
(1) An upload service where you can upload your APK and find out what permissions we think your app needs; in particular, we flag extra permissions. (2) A permission map for Android 2.2 that lists what permissions are required for what Intents/Content Providers/API calls. (It includes hidden/private methods and is a lot more extensive than the permission requirements listed in the SDK documentation.) We hope it's helpful, and we'd love to get feedback from developers about how well they think it works. One limitation is that we built the permission map for Android 2.2; we're working on updating it to also include Android 2.3, but most permission checks are the same between the two versions.
