Description

When I build a apk from the command line via 'cordova build android', I get an apk that has all permissiones set, including those that I don't even need (like contacts access, capture access, etc).

I have tried modifying these files without any effect:
www/config.xml
platforms/android/res/xml/config.xml

Editing platforms/android/AndroidManifest.xml and removing those permissions seemed to work.
