That's not the real problem though. Reading the logs was never the right way to customize the behavior of the device to the current running activity - it was at most a crude workaround. The real "problem" is that android is designed with the idea that apps should not alter the system's behavior on each other, and has extremely limited mechanisms for recognizing "special" apps that would be permitted to do so. While a real solution for that is long overdue, it's also a much more complicated design conversation than the topic at hand. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
