> Key: CB-4811
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-4811
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Docs, Plugin Device
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Environment: Windows 7
> Reporter: Mike Billau
> Assignee: Michael Brooks
> Priority: Minor
>
> The docs for the cordova-plugin-device plugin
> (http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/edge/cordova_device_device.md.html#Device)
> say that the plugin will add
> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
> to AndroidManifest.xml
> However, it seems like this is not actually the case, because 1) there is
> nothing in the plugin.xml file that would do this (missing <config-file
> target="AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/*">[...]) element, and 2) it doesn't
> seem like the device functionality needs this permission at all.
> Unless there are some strange dependencies that I'm not seeing between other
> plugins that require the device plugin to have this permission (that wouldn't
> make sense...?), I think the docs should be edited to reflect this to avoid
> causing confusion (it confused me at least!)
