Just ran a quick test on my Galaxy Nexus with stock OTA 4.1.1 1) Added the permission to the manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_LOGS"/> 2) Pushed an update from Eclipse, this appeared in the adb logcat: 07-18 22:43:20.265 W/PackageManager( 306): Not granting permission android.permission.READ_LOGS to package org.kman.AquaMail (protectionLevel=50 flags=0x8be46) 3) Tried to grant the permission: ~$adb shell shell@android:/ $ pm grant org.kman.AquaMail android.permission.READ_LOGS Operation not allowed: java.lang.SecurityException: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.GRANT_REVOKE_PERMISSIONS. 4) Who is user 2000? shell@android:/ $ id uid=2000(shell) gid=2000(shell) groups=1003(graphics),1004(input),1007(log),1009(mount),1011(adb),1015(sdcard_rw),1028(sdcard_r),3001(net_bt_admin),3002(net_bt),3003(inet),3006(net_bw_stats) Aha, it's the uid used by "adb shell". -- K 2012/7/18 Ievgenii Nazaruk <[email protected]> > I guess that's because I tried it on emulator.
