[android-developers] Re: testing uses-permission
Make sure you uninstall the app completely from the G1, then re-install it (I do this through a weblink such as a href=blahblah.apkblahblah/a and install through the browser). This will make sure you have not granted it permissions earlier. Then make sure your app still functions. If it does, you are probably good to go.
