Allow Samsung Galaxy to Allows the application to request access to your Twitter account.?
There's the obvious replacement from something effectively like this:
showText("Allow Samsung Galaxy to {0}?", "Allows the application to request access to your Twitter account.")
But the phrasing for these do not mean what the developers intended.
The phone's phrasing grants the phone permission to do something.
The second (nested) phrase grants permission for the app to request access.So effectively, if you select "allow", you're permitting your phone to decide whether the app may ask for access to the account.
If you select "deny", you're telling the phone that it isn't allowed to decide, but doesn't deny anyone else from providing the permission.None of that does what the intention apparently is, which is to grant or deny permission for the app to access the account.
