PHONE_CALLS

public static final String PHONE_CALLS

SYSTEM_TOOLS

public static final String SYSTEM_TOOLS

Group of permissions that are related to system APIs. Many of these are not permissions the user will be expected to understand, and such permissions should generally be marked as "normal" protection level so they don't get displayed. This can also, however, be used for miscellaneous features that provide access to the operating system, such as writing the global system settings.
