Android 13: READ_LOGS permission changes

Open xnumad opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Screenshot of dialog [1] Choosing "Allow one-time access" for the READ_LOGS permission request apparently gives the Scoop service the permissions as long as it runs, meaning that at the latest after a reboot, it will lose the permission again.

Issues:

  1. (bug) Scoop doesn't reliably detect not having the permission:

Scoop status notification falsely reports "Monitoring app crashes" (scoop_running) and "Permission status" setting states "READ_LOGS permission is granted" but doesn't detect app crashes

Only after stopping the service via the notification and reopening the app, the Android dialog [1] appears, after which (granting permission) Scoop works.

  1. (new functionality) With root permissions, there probably is a way to bypass this dialog.

Not of priority to me, just want to report it.

Google's changes are so damn annoying lol. The changes in Android 13 are a lot more involved than in Android 12, but I'll get it done eventually.

The tweet says it's possible through Shizuku, but is that the case for rooted users as well?
