It doesn't matter if you're the device admin or not, there's just simply no way to "turn off" the camera, etc.. from all apps, it's just not possible.. You can block it from certain apps, but only if you rip their guts out and physically remove the permission from them. So your app can't, at runtime, remove abilities from other apps, that relate to hardware resources. Even if you turn the Bluetooth off, somebody else can turn it back on, so you're not really "blocking" it :-/ Kris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
