To add a new permission to Android modify the frameworks/base/core/res/AndroidManifest.xml file. Make sure you add the strings too. After rebuilding check that the api/current.txt file was updated to include the new permissions.
 
    <!-- Allows an application to write the company system settings. -->
    <permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_COMPANY_SETTINGS"
        android:permissionGroup="android.permission-group.DEVELOPMENT_TOOLS"
        android:protectionLevel="signature|system|development"
        android:label="@string/permlab_writeCompanySettings"
        android:description="@string/permdesc_writeCompanySettings" />

git checkout chrischanges 
git pull https://tinfoil.blah.com/gerrit/platform/packages/apps/Settings refs/changes/12/112/1

git add src/com/blah/blah/Utils.java
git commit -a
git rebase --continue
git add src/com/blah/blah/Utils.java
git push ssh://cpiekarski@tinfoil.blah.com:29418/platform/packages/apps/Settings chrischanges:refs/for/balh/android-4.1.2_r1

Will work once:

  nc -l 0.0.0.0 6127

  nc -l 6126 | nc 0.0.0.0 6127

  wget http://0.0.0.0:6126

  First 'nc -l' should hit.
