Thank you for your time.

Yes, there seems to be a change on Unity 2022.3.xx in one of the latest lts version that seems to add that permision.

To fix it you can modify for AndroidManifest in your project (search for it) and at the bottom, just before the </manifest> tag,  add the following line:

 

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" tools:node="remove" />

 

you will need to add the tools at the top of the manifest... like this:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:installLocation="auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">

 

with that change it will remove that permision at build time.

    This did not work. Every time I try to edit the manifest files, (there are 13 of them) the files regenerate or restore themselves to their original state. I have looked at all of them.

    Thank you for responding so quickly.
