'static' location provider changed in 4.x to require 'fine' permission #206

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
In Google TV under Android 3.x, a request to get the user's zip code via the 
"static" location provider required only the "coarse" Location permission. That 
changed under android 4.x to require the "fine" permission.

Throwable occurred: java.lang.SecurityException: "static" location provider 
requires ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission.

Can you change that back?  

Can you grandfather the "static" name with coarse permissions for the 
course-grained zip code it provides? That API promise shipped with 3.x.
