    CPU Toolkit permissions

    Looking at the permissions for CPUToolkit, why are all of these needed?

    Read/write contact data?
    Call phone numbers?
    My location?
    Modify/read gmail?
    Internet access?
    Use my account credentials?
    Read my phone Id?
    Change my audio settings?
    and more?

    I don't really see a need for any of these, am I missing something?

    It is the same cpu files from CyanogenMod so I would ask who wrote the code.

    Thanks Pete, I'll hop on their forum and ask. I did a quick search through their GIT repos and couldn't find the source to look for myself.
