Let a dev chime in but why do it if you will just catch a few that grant passage? I bet there is a difference to be noted between no root & root denied.
My Verizon App Requesting Root Access
- Thread starter hawkswind1
- Start date
De-compilation says differently:
Code:
private static String b()
{
String str = "YES";
try
{
BufferedReader localBufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su -c ls").getErrorStream()));
char[] arrayOfChar = new char[17];
if ((localBufferedReader.read(arrayOfChar) == arrayOfChar.length) && (new String(arrayOfChar, 0, arrayOfChar.length).trim().equalsIgnoreCase("permission denied"))) {
str = "NO";
}
return str;
}
catch (Exception localException)
{
for (;;)
{
str = "NO";
}
}
}
Once you deny an app you'll never see it ask again. That's not specific to this.
Right. What's not specific? You mean denying prevents future requests on any all, right?
Sent from my unlocked consumer edition Motorola Droid Maxx xt1080m.
Here's what I did:
I had this issue pop up after installing 'My Verizon' after I flashed Hyperdrive15 to my GS4. I didn't respond to the request and just let it time out.
I then force-closed My Verizon.
Using Xposed Framework:
I added it to the RootCloak module.
I used the module 'App Settings' (ver 1.8) and removed the following permissions from 'My Verizon Mobile':
Anyhow, that's what these perms are most likely for, however, like most things in life they can be used for other things by big red I'm sure. Especially the GET_TASKS perm.

You really think Verizon updated their app to watch the micro-percent of people that used that service? BTW, root and unlocked bootloaders are not the same and you can't tell the unlocked status from root.1There's a thread in the MotoX forum about this as well, and iKrYpToNiTe decompiled the update for those interested in everything it's asking for. Root check is the second method from the bottom. Here's the [Source Link].
