Re: camera and microphone questions

Hi All,
 
Two questions on the camera and microphone:
 
1) is there a way to ask Android for a list of everything
that has permissions to either or both the camera and
microphone ?
 
2) is there a global way to disable ALL access/permissions
to both the camera and the microphone?
 
Many thanks,

2. Permission Manager

   (I have this installed but I don't see an APK there anymore.)

4. ADB
   adb shell pm grant <sample.package.id> android.permission.<PERMISSION_NAME>
   adb shell pm revoke <sample.package.id> android.permission.<PERMISSION_NAME>

For example:
C:\> adb shell pm list permissions | FindStr facebook
      This should list all permissions granted for that particular app.
 
 C:\> adb shell pm revoke com.facebook.appmanager android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
      This should revoke the stated permissions from that app.

 C:\> adb shell pm grant com.facebook.appmanager android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
      This should grant the stated permissions to that app.
