The rom Im using has an app permission switchboard for ever app you install . And almost EVERY app has a gps location permission built in . Except ofcourse on roms like mine where you can disable / enable each permission individually per install .

It's absolutely scary how many permissions are on some benign app like a flashlight . And are enabled by default upon install .

What I don't get is why simple apps need so many permissions...

Plus they save all their content to your device so the ads don't have to download every time.

I have an S-3 I want to do that with. What is a good rooting app?

Still looking for an app from 2005 when you could still tether to a desktop internet connection instead of wifi.

What annoys me is how some apps update every 2 days. You seriously can't tell me they are patching security flaws with stupid apps like the sound dB level meter that updates itself twice a week.. they are spying.
