             Summary: Too many / wrong permissions for 
                 Key: CB-7822
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7822
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Plugin Device Orientation
            Reporter: Adam Tuttle
            Priority: Minor


It seems intuitively incorrect that the Device Orientation plugin needs to 
request the permissions ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION and ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION. I did 
a little bit of research and haven't found anything conclusive one way or the 
other. I just know that I need this information to make my app look good, but 
now my users could think that I'm watching their GPS for no reason.

This was the best information I was able to find on getting orientation, but I 
don't see any discussion on the necessary permissions.

I wish I had a better idea of whether or not this is a bug or a "feature" of 
the way android permissions are provisioned, but this is the best I can do at 
the moment. Can someone please look into this?
