Hi,
I've been searching about this topic but I haven't found a clear solution yet. As far as I know, you can specify different *protectionLevel* in your * AndroidManifest.xml*, those permissions allow other applications to interact with the one you are developing. As an example, imagine that I want to kill a processes, that is not mine (from another package) or that I want to install a driver I've developed. In both cases the problem is the same, those things need to be run as a system / root. How can I develop programs that require system / root permissions, do I need an special license? *Note:* Please, note that granting the permission: * <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.KILL_BACKGROUND_PROCESSES"/>* Using *android:sharedUserId="android.uid.system"* does not work either. Also, consider that I cannot ask the users to have their mobiles "rooted". Thanks in advance.
