Is posible use magisk to fix overly restrictive SELinux filesystem permissions in Android Nougat and Oreo

https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37091475

Well this is crap!!!

This is exactly like if Windows would deny end users permission to Task Manager, Resource Monitor, and Process Explorer! It is laughable! It is unacceptable! I'm absolutely shocked that this is where Android has gone now. It's getting worse. Since API level 26 (Android O, to be released) you cannot even access any more /prop/stat of your own process. In addition https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/ActivityManager.html#getRunningServices(int) is being deprecated. Hereafter there is no way to know anything about any process running on a device.

If you find wich system file(s) are to be eddited, we could setup an Magisk module, assuming that the file(s) is/are located in the system part.
The file(s) path(s) aren't present by your link.

I just will update to Nougat or Oreo when I find a solution to this, I need use the "Usage Timelines" like an Task Manager to stay my Hard Multitasking mint. If you know a solution to this please let me know

sorry but i don't understand exactly what you want to have/make..

The app "Usage Timelines" do not work on Nougat and Oreo, apps likes SystemPanel too. I want a fix to make that apps work.Look the description of the app Usage Timelines on play store to you understand
