From 76e273e3c8e39a7e475ae53e2e08f59eeff38529 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Claudia de Veaux <deveaux@google.com>
Date: Wed, 7 Dec 2011 11:50:44 -0800
Subject: [PATCH] Edit to strings per UI text standards.

* Used standard language ("Allows this app..." for permission descriptions.
* Messages and toasts use ending punctuation.
* Checkbox labels do not use ending punctuation.
* Toast language should be cryptic.
* Use "unsuccessful" instead of failed, or "Couldn\'t ...".
* Use contractions.
