If you're on Android 6 or higher then you by means of ADB can revoke an app's specific permission: requires you a) know app's package name & b) the name of permission
Example:
Code:
adb devices
adb shell pm revoke <PACKAGE_NAME> android.permission.<NAME_OF_PERMISSION>

In Developer options turn on the USB debugging (Security settings) and Disable Permission Monitoring

How do apps know what area code I have without granting phone permission?

So do Instagram and apps know what area code I have without granting phone permission? I want to disable this. I have an app called Package Disabler Pro where I can disable different functions and stuff but can't figure out this one...

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The app Package Disabler Pro - as its name implies - only disables ( read: freezes ) a package at a whole but not specific app features.

I see, but I would still like to know how apps can get the country code that people are in
Your internet connection, mobile data connection, and GPS are the three principal ways that any app can retrieve, thus knowing your location.

I am using a VPN and also I use FakeGPS location app that spoofs my location. Instagram even recognizes my spoofed location. I have also turned off WiFi and bluetooth location scanning as well in the settings.

Question Is it possible to disable this notification with root?

Obviously it's extremely obnoxious to have this after every call, but th ability to disable it is grayed out. I'm rooted, so maybe there are options to disable it?
Never had this, but as with any notification, I believe it can be disabled by long tapping on the notification and changing the settings.

That's grayed out which is why I'm asking. It's a known issue across the internet, but I haven't seen anyone asking about root solutions.

Try to found and delete GoogleFeedback

com.google.android.feedback (Market Feedback Agent) is a Google app that allows other apps to call it and ask you to provide market feedback. Most likely this is what you meant, as there is no Google Feedback app on the P6. You cannot delete it since the system partition is read-only and cannot be made writeable. You probably cannot can disable it in Settings > Apps but will need or use an app like Titanium Backup or SDMaid (Pro I think) to freeze it.
I will freeze mine and run a test, editing this post after to post the result.
EDIT: Freezing the Market Feedback Agent makes no difference. Something tells me that this behavior, along with the inability to modify notifications in the phone app, is baked into the app itself.

What device administrator app is this?

Hi
Im trying to use samsung smart switch to pass all the info to my new device, but when I opne smart switch and try to give the app the permisions it shows me "Security policy restrics use of smart switch".
This phone was bought directly to the carrier for personal use. Not a second hand phone.
After searching on web i found the app on the device administrator apps, but I cant disable it.
I cant find this app on internet.
Is there a legal way to disable this app?
Thanks.

I foud the app on the system app but the option of uninstalling or force stop is disabled.
Enable USB debbuguing:
Login to your Samsung Account on that device
Create aliancex account and install app on your device
Android Alliance - User Control Panel - Register
alliancex.org
Disable those security app:
Here is example:
Try this way: go to SETTINGS->Location and Security-> Device Administrator and deselect the admin which you want to uninstall. Now uninstall the application. If it still says you need to deactivate the application before uninstalling, you may need to Force Stop the application before uninstalling.

enable it and mount remount the system (root) files without ADB thank you

But after superuser in Magisk was granted to it and file "system (root) was remounted, adb root could still not work.
It returns "adbd cannot run as root in production builds".
Actually, this issue was solved by installing and enabling "adbd insecure", but afterwards, the device could no more be recognized by adb.
