WAKE_LOCK: Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming. android.permission.AUTHENTICATE_ACCOUNTS android.permission.DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION android.permission.MANAGE_ACCOUNTS android.permission.USE_CREDENTIALS com.android.vending.BILLING com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES com.path.permission.C2D_MESSAGE com.path.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE
