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 (Samsung), so it is an OEM preinstall. It also signs the Android framework, so it is a platform-level key on its device(s). Inferred from the certificate appearing only on Samsung devices (580 packages, 11729 observations).
- Its largest observed manifest declares 21 permissions: 1 runtime (user-granted), 6 signature or system-level, 13 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 (21)
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_CHECKIN_PROPERTIES |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
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. |
BROADCAST_STICKY |
Allows the app to send sticky broadcasts, which remain after the broadcast ends. Excessive use may make the phone slow or unstable by causing it to use too much memory. |
CHANGE_CONFIGURATION |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE |
Allows the app to change the state of network connectivity. |
CHANGE_WIFI_STATE |
Allows the app to connect to and disconnect from Wi-Fi access points and to make changes to device configuration for Wi-Fi networks. |
DISABLE_KEYGUARD |
Allows the app to disable the keylock and any associated password security. For example, the phone disables the keylock when receiving an incoming phone call, then re-enables the keylock when the call is finished. |
GET_TASKS |
Allows the app to retrieve information about currently and recently running tasks. This may allow the app to discover information about which applications are used on the device. |
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. |
MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS |
Allows the app to modify global audio settings such as volume and which speaker is used for output. |
MODIFY_PHONE_STATE |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
READ_PRIVILEGED_PHONE_STATE |
Signature or privileged system permission. docs ↗ |
READ_SYNC_SETTINGS |
Allows the app to read the sync settings for an account. For example, this can determine whether the People app is synced with an account. |
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED |
Allows the app to have itself started as soon as the system has finished booting. This can make it take longer to start the phone and allow the app to slow down the overall phone by always running. |
RECEIVE_WAP_PUSH |
Allows the app to receive and process WAP messages. This permission includes the ability to monitor or delete messages sent to you without showing them to you. |
VIBRATE |
Allows the app to control the vibrator. |
WAKE_LOCK |
Allows the app to prevent the phone from going to sleep. |
WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
WRITE_SETTINGS |
Allows the app to modify the system's settings data. Malicious apps may corrupt your system's configuration. |

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.

Each record is a device profile (make + model + Android version). Each unique handset that syncs against a matching profile will increase the observations of a package, thereby increasing confidence that a package is expected to be on a device.
