We recently changed the default developer access level for 2.1 and later. We realized that, by default, we should protect all installed apps, not "certified" apps semi-randomly. While most Gaia apps are certified apps, you can definitely have very private data that should be protected in any type of app, such as a chat app from the Marketplace.
Devices before 2.1: * By default: * All installed apps on device that are *not* certified apps (so privileged and web / regular apps) appear in "Runtime Apps" * With "unrestricted permissions" by setting the pref or going to WebIDE's Runtime Info and clicking button: * All installed apps on device appear in "Runtime Apps" Devices with 2.1 and later: * By default: * Only apps installed via DevTools / WebIDE appear in "Runtime Apps", regardless of app type * With "unrestricted permissions" by setting the pref or going to WebIDE's Runtime Info and clicking button: * All installed apps on device appear in "Runtime Apps" If you want to debug more apps beyond those you are developing yourself, you'll need to "Request higher privileges" in WebIDE[1] (will update these docs soon to make this more obvious), which requires a rooted device. We are working on a way for developers to access this on the phone itself without needing to root the device first.
