Package intelligence
Observed signing, permission, version and size signals from contributing devices - descriptive of that sample, not a verdict. These come from the v2 Package Search sync, which not every device has contributed to yet, so for some packages this detail is partial or not present at all.
- Signed by the device maker's own signing key (ITEL MOBILE LIMITED), so it is an OEM preinstall.
- Its largest observed manifest declares 10 permissions: 4 runtime (user-granted), 5 install-time and 1 vendor or uncatalogued.
- Never reported as user-facing, so it runs as a background or system component rather than an app the user opens.
Declared permissions (10)
Largest permission set observed for this package. Text is Android's own published description where one exists; platform permissions Android does not document show their granted protection level (in grey) instead; vendor or unknown constants show the name only.
| Permission | Description |
|---|---|
ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION |
This app can get your approximate location from location services while the app is in use. Location services for your device must be turned on for the app to get location. |
ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION |
This app can get your precise location from location services while the app is in use. Location services for your device must be turned on for the app to get location. This may increase battery usage. |
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE |
Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected. |
ACCESS_WIFI_STATE |
Allows the app to view information about Wi-Fi networking, such as whether Wi-Fi is enabled and name of connected Wi-Fi devices. |
FOREGROUND_SERVICE |
Allows the app to make use of foreground services. |
INTERNET |
Allows the app to create network sockets and use custom network protocols. The browser and other applications provide means to send data to the internet, so this permission is not required to send data to the internet. |
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
Allows the app to read the contents of your shared storage. |
VIBRATE |
Allows the app to control the vibrator. |
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
Allows the app to write the contents of your shared storage. |

Manage on devices
ADB commands for this package (the inverse of each is included so you can undo). Run from an authorised shell or wire the equivalent into your DPC. Verify on a test device first - this database doesn’t yet classify which packages are safe to change. --user 0 targets the current user; drop it (and use a privileged shell) to act device-wide.
