Summary0010951: Excessive permissions related to the Lock Screen Player ?
DescriptionThe Lock Screen Player requires a couple of 'strong' permissions:

1) read phone status and identity - to hide the Lock Screen Player (on versions of Android < 4.2) during a phone call

2) disable your screen lock - to allow for a Lock Screen Player on versions of Android < 4.2

Is it possible to remove the requirement for these permissions?
TagsNo tags attached.

Fixed in build 140
READ_PHONE_STATE removed - We can check mode from AudioManager instead
DISABLE_KEYGUARD removed - surprisingly is not necessary for finally used methods

To test:
behavior of lock screen player while phone is ringing or calling
