None of the android applications rely on it. The CALL_PRIVILEDGED permission is a little more tricky; having an open mechanism able to call emergency services has a lot of scary legal and other issues around it, so though a carrier could open it up I don't know if that will happen. At least we were able to negotiate open access to placing phone calls for everything except emergency numbers. At some point you count your blessings. :} -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer [email protected] Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.
