Doing anything *non-standard* is not recommended as a common sense. Android permissions are there to make user understand about what your application is doing. For example, If you are downloading an calculator app and if it needs permission to read and write your contacts then you should be notified about it and you as user can decide whether to install such application. That is why permissions has to be there in manifest file so in the beginning only user can see them even before installing the app.
