Change App Permissions

[Nevoc]

Does anyone know a way to change applications permissions?

I am hessitant to download some apps because of the permissions they ask for. What does a wall paper app really need with permissions to "read contact data, write contact data"

Thanks

if you have rooted your phone there are ways to change the permissions for individual applications cyanogenmod includes this feature: Androinica » CyanogenMod lets users select which permissions Android apps can access [Video] see also https://market.android.com/details?id=com.stericson.permissions HTH Paul
