If you're referring to READ_PHONE_STATE and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions, these were introduced in SDK version 4. They are automatically added to APKs built against a prior SDK version. So the manifest of applications written against prior SDK versions won't include these permissions, but they will show up against the application on the device. See the thread here: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/49854a36104aaeed
