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.

device profiles
- Signed by the device maker's own signing key (Samsung), so it is an OEM preinstall, but 2 different certificates appear across the fleet, so OEMs ship their own builds of it.
- Its largest observed manifest declares 48 permissions: 5 runtime (user-granted), 10 signature or system-level, 12 install-time and 21 vendor or uncatalogued.
- Reported as an updated system app on 1 of 2 profiles - a newer build is installed over the one in the system image there.
Declared permissions (48)
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_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. |
CALL_PHONE |
Allows the app to call phone numbers without your intervention. This may result in unexpected charges or calls. Note that this doesn't allow the app to call emergency numbers. Malicious apps may cost you money by making calls without your confirmation, or dial carrier codes which cause incoming calls to be automatically forwarded to another number. |
CALL_PRIVILEGED |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
CAMERA |
This app can take pictures and record videos using the camera while the app is in use. |
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. |
DEVICE_POWER |
Signature-level system permission, for platform-signed apps. |
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. |
DUMP |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
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. |
MASTER_CLEAR |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
MODIFY_PHONE_STATE |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
NFC |
Allows the app to communicate with Near Field Communication (NFC) tags, cards, and readers. |
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
Allows the app to read the contents of your shared storage. |
READ_LOGS |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
READ_PHONE_STATE |
Allows the app to access the phone features of the device. This permission allows the app to determine the phone number and device IDs, whether a call is active, and the remote number connected by a call. |
REBOOT |
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. |
RESTART_PACKAGES |
Allows the app to end background processes of other apps. This may cause other apps to stop running. |
VIBRATE |
Allows the app to control the vibrator. |
WAKE_LOCK |
Allows the app to prevent the phone from going to sleep. |
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
Allows the app to write the contents of your shared storage. |
WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
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. |

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.
Disable for the current user
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.sec.factory
Remove for the current user - a per-user uninstall; the APK stays on
/system, so Restore re-adds it (-k keeps app data)adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sec.factory
Re-enable
adb shell pm enable com.sec.factory
Restore (re-install for the current user)
adb shell pm install-existing com.sec.factory
