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 (Nothing), so it is an OEM preinstall, but 4 different certificates appear across the fleet, so OEMs ship their own builds of it.
- Its largest observed manifest declares 14 permissions: 8 signature or system-level and 6 install-time. The signature/system share marks it as a privileged component, not an ordinary app.
- APK size ranges from 0.2 MB to 5.1 MB across the reporting device profiles, so the build differs substantially between them.
- Never reported as user-facing, so it runs as a background or system component rather than an app the user opens.
Declared permissions (14)
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_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. |
BLUETOOTH |
Allows the app to view the configuration of the Bluetooth on the phone, and to make and accept connections with paired devices. |
BLUETOOTH_ADMIN |
Allows the app to configure the local Bluetooth phone, and to discover and pair with remote 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. |
DEVICE_POWER |
Signature-level system permission, for platform-signed apps. |
DUMP |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
MANAGE_ACTIVITY_STACKS |
Signature-level system permission, for platform-signed apps. |
MODIFY_AUDIO_ROUTING |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
REAL_GET_TASKS |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
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. |
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.
