Android: I don't need your permission
I wish it was that easy in all cases.<p>For VLC on Android, we need the READ_PHONE_STATE permission, in order to stop the music when a phone call is coming in. We just use it to make pause on incoming call. (VLC on Android is also an audio player, with a background audio service).<p>The catch is, this is not an Intent you can send or request easily. We tried so many other ways, but none work.<p>But on the play store it's written "read phone status and identity" and that's really really scary for the users.<p>And even if we're 100% open source, so people can check the application, and even people recompile VLC, this is a complaint we receive a lot...
