static final int FLAG_PERSONAL_INFO ``` Flag for[flags](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PermissionGroupInfo#flags), corresponding to`personalInfo`value of[R.attr.permissionGroupFlags](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr#permissionGroupFlags).
Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001) ## Fields ### CREATOR Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public static final Creator CREATOR ```

### descriptionRes Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int descriptionRes ``` A string resource identifier (in the package's resources) of this permission's description. From the "description" attribute or, if not set, 0.
### flags Added in[API level 17](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int flags ``` Additional flags about this group as given by[R.attr.permissionGroupFlags](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr#permissionGroupFlags). Value is either`0`or[FLAG_PERSONAL_INFO](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PermissionGroupInfo#FLAG_PERSONAL_INFO)
### nonLocalizedDescription Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public CharSequence nonLocalizedDescription ``` The description string provided in the AndroidManifest file, if any. You probably don't want to use this, since it will be null if the description is in a resource. You probably want[PermissionInfo.loadDescription](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PermissionInfo#loadDescription(android.content.pm.PackageManager))instead.
### priority Added in[API level 17](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int priority ``` Prioritization of this group, for visually sorting with other groups.
## Public constructors ### PermissionGroupInfo Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public PermissionGroupInfo () ```
**This constructor is deprecated.** Should only be created by the system.

### PermissionGroupInfo Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public PermissionGroupInfo (PermissionGroupInfo orig) ```
**This constructor is deprecated.** Should only be created by the system.

| Parameters || |--------|-----------------------------------------------------------| | `orig` | `PermissionGroupInfo`: This value cannot be`null`.
| ## Public methods ### describeContents Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int describeContents () ``` Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of[writeToParcel(android.os.Parcel, int)](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Parcelable#writeToParcel(android.os.Parcel,%20int)), the return value of this method must include the[CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Parcelable#CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR)bit.
| Returns || |-------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `int` | a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either`0`or[CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Parcelable#CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR)
| ### loadDescription Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public CharSequence loadDescription (PackageManager pm) ``` Retrieve the textual description of this permission. This will call back on the given PackageManager to load the description from the application.
| Parameters || |------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `pm` | `PackageManager`: A PackageManager from which the label can be loaded; usually the PackageManager from which you originally retrieved this item. This value cannot be`null`.
| | Returns || |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | [CharSequence](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/CharSequence) | Returns a CharSequence containing the permission's description. If there is no description, null is returned.
| ### toString Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public String toString () ``` Returns a string representation of the object.
| Returns || |--------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------| | [String](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/String) | a string representation of the object.
| ### writeToParcel Added in[API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public void writeToParcel (Parcel dest, int parcelableFlags) ```

| Parameters || |-------------------|-----------------| | `dest` | `Parcel`
| | `parcelableFlags` | `int`
|
