XPrivacy

The ultimate, yet easy to use, privacy manager for Android

Index

Description

XPrivacy can prevent applications (including associated background services and content providers) from leaking privacy sensitive data. XPrivacy can restrict the categories of data an application can access. This is done by feeding an application with no or fake data. There are several data categories which can be restricted, for example contacts or location. For example, if you restrict access to contacts for an application, this will result in sending an empty contact list to the application, when it requests access to your contacts. Similarly, restricting an application's access to your location will result in a random or set location being sent to the application.

XPrivacy doesn't revoke (i.e. block) permissions from an application, which means that most applications will continue to work as before and won't force close. There are two exceptions to this, access to the internet and to external storage (typically an SD card) is restricted by denying access (revoking permissions). There is no other way to realize this, since these permissions are handled by Android in a special way. Android delegates handling of these permission to the underlying Linux network/file system. XPrivacy will fake offline (internet) and/or unmounted (storage) state, but some applications try to access the internet/storage nevertheless, potentially resulting in crashes.

If restricting a category of data for an application results in problems for the application, it is possible to allow access to the data category again to solve the issue.

By default, all newly installed applications will have no access to any data category at all, to prevent a new application from leaking sensitive data right after installation. Shortly after installing a new application, XPrivacy will ask which data categories you want the new application to have access to. XPrivacy comes with an application browser, which allows you to quickly enable or disable applications' access to a particular data category (i.e. to view and control all access to the camera, for example). It is also possible to edit all data categories for one application.

To help you identify potential data leaks, XPrivacy will monitor attempts made by all applications to access sensitive data. XPrivacy will display a warning triangle icon as soon as data of a data category has been used. XPrivacy will also display if an application has internet access, indicating that the application poses a risk of sharing the data it obtains with an external server. This is just a guideline, since an application could access the internet through other applications too. If an application has requested Android permissions to access data in a data category, this will be displayed with a green tick icon, but this will only be shown when looking at an individual application, since checking permissions for all applications is quite slow.

XPrivacy is built using the Xposed framework. XPrivacy taps into a number of selected functions of Android through the Xposed framework. Depending on the function, XPrivacy conditionally skips execution of the original function (for example when an application tries to set a proximity alert) or alters the result of the original function (for example to return empty calendar data).

XPrivacy has been tested with CyanogenMod 10 and 10.1 (Android 4.1 and 4.2), and will most likely work with any Android version 4.0, 4.1 or 4.2 variant, including stock ROMs. Root access is needed to install the Xposed framework. Because of a bug in the Xposed framework, XPrivacy currently needs a fixed Xposed binary, which is provided as download for both Android version 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2.

Installation

It seems like a lot of steps, but it is done in no time:

  1. Requirement: Android 4.0+ (ICS) or 4.1+ (JellyBean), check with System Settings > About phone > Android version
  2. Make a backup
  3. If not done already: root your device; the procedure depends on the brand and model of your device
  4. Enable System settings > Security > Unknown sources
  5. Install the Xposed framework
    • Be sure to follow all installation steps
    • Be sure to install the latest version 2.1.4
    • Download and copy the Xposed disabler to your SD card to disable Xposed in case of troubles
    • MIUI is not supported by Xposed
  6. Install XPrivacy from here
    • Alternatively download from here
  7. Enable XPrivacy from the Xposed installer
  8. Reboot into recovery
  9. Flash the Xposed fix for your Android version from here
    • Android ICS 4.0.x / CM9: Xposed_fix_4.0.zip
    • Android JB 4.1.x / CM10: Xposed_fix_4.1.zip
    • Android JB 4.2.x / CM10.1: Xposed_fix_4.2.zip
    • This fix is only for Xposed version 2.1.4
    • Alternatively download from here
  10. Reboot

I do not recommend using XPrivacy in combination with any of the similar solutions, because it will most probably result in conflicts (with as possible consequence data leakage).

If you want to uninstall XPrivacy, you have two options:

  1. Disable XPrivacy in the Xposed installer
  2. Uninstall Xposed using the Xposed installer

Upgrading

  • Make a backup
  • Do not remove the previous version (else your settings will get lost)
  • Download the new version
  • Install the new version over the previous version
  • Reboot your device

You can check for updates using the options menu. If there is an update the browser will download it.

Usage

  1. Start XPrivacy
  2. Select a data category at the top, for example Accounts
  3. Restrict data of the selected data category for an application by ticking a check box
  4. Tap on the application icon to see the restrictions for all categories for the application
  5. Tap on the application icon to start the application to test (after previous step)

To see it in action: try restricting the category Identification for Android Id Info or try restriction the category Contacts for the Contacts application (the Contacts application will continue to show a spinner, which is actually a bug in the Contacts application).

Applying some restrictions require restarting applications and/or your device

If an application requested Android permissions for a data category, the category will be marked with a check mark icon. If an application used/tried to use data, the data category will be marked with a warning triangle icon. If an application has internet permissions to access a world globe icon will be shown. These icons are just a guideline, because an application can access privacy sensitive data without Android permissions, for example the serial number of your device and because is not possible to monitor data usage in each and every situation, for example not for access to the internet or the external storage. An application could access the internet through another (sister) application.

Enabling internet or storage restriction means blocking access to the internet or to the external storage (typically the SD card). This may result in error messages and even in forced closes of the application.

Filtering:

  • Tap the grayed triangle to filter applications that used the data
  • Type in the edit box to filter applications by name (tap the cross to clear)
  • Tick the check box to filter applications with restrictions

Expert mode:

  • GservicesProvider in the category Identification needs to be set manually
  • load and loadLibrary in the category Shell need to be set manually

Using XPrivacy is entirely at your own risk

Permissions

XPrivacy asks for the following Android permissions:

  • Accounts: to select accounts to allow for applications
  • Boot: to check if XPrivacy is enabled
  • Internet: to check for updates (only manual from the menu)
  • Storage: to export settings to the SD card (only pro version)

If you don't like this, you can always restrict XPrivacy itself ...

Frequently asked questions

(1) Will XPrivacy make my device slower?

Maybe a little bit, but it will probably not be noticeable.

(2) Does XPrivacy use a lot of memory or battery?

Almost nothing.

(3) Can you help me with rooting my device?

There are already enough guides to help you to root your device. Use your favorite search engine to find one.

(4) Do I really need to install the Xposed fix?

If you like to have all data restricted, yes. The current Xposed version cannot hook all functions with the same name having different parameters, like requestLocationUpdates of LocationManager.

(5) How can I reset all XPrivacy settings?

Manage apps > XPrivacy > Clear data

(6) Can I backup XPrivacy and settings?

Yes, you can, for example with Titanium backup, but you can only restore onto the same device. Exporting/importing settings will work across devices. To export/import settings you will need the pro version.

(7) What is expert mode?

In expert mode you will be able to restrict restrict system applications, including Android itself. Be careful! This can result in force closes and boot loops. Furthermore you will be able to make exceptions for individual functions within a restriction category. And finally you will get update notification for system applications (including Google apps).

(8) Will you block the iptables command or force online state?

No, this is too far from the goal of XPrivacy.

(9) Will you make it possible to enter fake data?

Maybe in a later stage. For now I like to keep things as simple as possible for maximum stability. Since version 0.21 you can enter a fake location. Since version 0.30 you can enter a fake MAC address.

(10) Which functions are exactly restricted?

Many, see here for all details.

(11) What did you fix in the Xposed framework?

See here.

(12) How safe is XPrivacy?

Great care has been taken to develop XPrivacy, nevertheless data could leak, although this is rare. So far no critical bugs have been reported.

(13) Why is XPrivacy not in the Play store?

Google will probably remove XPrivacy from the Play store eventually, since it will be able to block advertisements (for example by revoking internet permissions).

(14) I get 'Incompatible ...' !

An internal check of XPrivacy failed, resulting in potential data leakage. Please press OK to send me the support information, so I can look into it.

(15) Do I need to install Xposed/the fix again when I install an update of my kernel or ROM?

In case of a kernel update: no.

In case of a ROM update: yes.

XPrivacy will warn you when Xposed isn't installed, the wrong version of Xposed is installed or when the XPrivacy is not enabled in Xposed.

The right order for ROM updates is:

  • Flash ROM
  • Flash Google apps, when required
  • Reboot
  • Enable Xposed
  • Reboot, flash fix

(16) Can I restrict an application with root access?

Yes, you can, but the application could circumvent anything, since root access means it can do anything it likes. Nevertheless the application was probably not built to circumvent anything this way. Version 0.26 will allow you to restrict shell access for any application in expert mode, which effectively means revoking root access.

(17) Will restrictions be applied immediately?

It can take up to 15 seconds before changes in restrictions will be effective, because of caching. Changing the internet and storage restriction requires an application restart. Please note that in many cases pressing back, only moves the application to the background.

(18) Can XPrivacy ask for restrictions on demand / display a message on data usage?

It cannot always, since it works deep within Android, and therefore it is IMHO not a good idea to ask for restrictions when it could, because this will probably only result into confusion.

Newly installed applications are by default fully restricted. Restricting an application should not result into any force closes (crashes), please create an issue if this happens (see the support secion below), it only means that an application cannot see the restricted data. If an application should see the data, you can remove the associated restriction at any time.

(19) Does XPrivacy have a firewall?

Yes, you can restrict internet access for any application. If you want to partly enable internet, for example for Wi-Fi only, you will have to use a firewall application, like AFWall+. The reason is that XPrivacy works within Android and that detailed firewall rules can only be applied within the Linux kernel.

(21) I get 'Unable to parse package'

This means the downloaded apk is corrupt. Try disabling your popup blocker or download using another computer.

(22) How can I make a logcat?

See here.

(23) Where can I find the settings of XPrivacy?

The settings of XPrivacy are stored as private application data, because the settings of XPrivacy should be considered as privacy sensitive data too. It is possible to backup the application and the data, but you can restore it onto the same device only. This is because Android assigns different UID's to the same applications on different devices. Exporting settings on one device and importing settings onto another device will work, but this requires the pro version. If you want to backup the exported settings, they are in the folder .xprivacy on the SD card.

Support

If you encounter any bug or data leakage please report an issue, preferably including a logcat (use pastebin or a similar service).

If you have a feature request, please create an issue, but check if there doesn´t already exist a similar request.

Before submitting any issue please ensure you are running the latest version of XPrivacy.

If you have any question or suggestion, you can leave a message in the XDA XPrivacy forum thread.

Similar solutions

The PDroid family provides fake or no data, more or less in the same way as XPrivacy does. A difference is that you need to patch Android and that there is (therefore) only limited stock ROM support. The PDroid family is open source.

LBE Privacy Guard revokes permissions, which will make some applications unusable. LBE Privacy Guard also features malware protecting and data traffic control. Some consider the closed source code of Chinese origin as a problem.

The members of the PDroid family and XPrivacy hardly use memory, but LBE Privacy Guard does.

The CyanogenMod Incognito Mode seems not to be fine grained and provides only privacy for personal data, if the associated content provider chooses to do so.

The Per App Settings Module revokes permissions like LBE Privacy Guard does. This modules offers a lot of other, intersting features.
