[Q] change app permissions manually - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hi all, I'm trying to find a way to change/disable permissions in individual apps, PHONE_CALLS, INTERNET_ACCESS etc, I know there's apps to do this but I want to find a way to do this manually.
Maybe there is a way using terminal emulator or root explorer, I've been searching everywhere but all suggestions are to download an app.
If someone could point me in the direction of a good tutorial there karmic score would mushroom to dizzying heights. Thanks

Xperia s : PAC v22

Odp: [Q] change app permissions manually
Use for this Root Explorer or Solid Explorer(this one is much better). I'm using Solid and when I'm pushing app to system this explorer automatically setting right permission.

Many thanks for this app, I did a bit of research & it seems like it works for certain things like ad blocking, licence breaking, so it's got a bad name in some parts of the community, but hey, my phone my rules.
I found what I was looking for "apktool", this is a pc program that let's you extract-open-edit-repack-replace any app you want.

Since your obviously rooted, search for a thread that details extracting the stock rom from the ruu into your temp files and find the camera apk. Use adb or a root explorer to push it back into /system/app. Problem solved assuming your running stock, if not stock then extract the apk from the from zip you installed and push it back to your /app.
Edit: and for the future guys, let's give good answers instead of calling op stupid. All the negativity really ruins the purpose of xda forums.

Unzip the ROM you used on your phone, and look under /system/app folder for the apk.

+1 and then move it to your current /system/app and make sure you set permissions to -rw-r--r-- (0644) and reboot your phone.

You won't find it in the folder on your phone. Get a ROM zip and extract the whole 600+ MB file. You'll find it there.
Since you are on stock, look for stock ROM zip. Should be in one of the threads under development.

Does anyone have a link to the adaway apk. I down loaded a free app from play store that puts ads on your phone. I like the app and don't want to get rid of it.

Just an FYI, the newest version of ROM Toobox Pro doesn't have the ad blocking feature specifically built in anymore. Just a manual host file editor. In some update notes I think I read that it had to be removed via a request from the Play Store overseers.
I downloaded the apk adaway to my 4shared account. I will post the link. In joy ! http://www.4shared.com/android/4U7oOpqc/AdAwayv23.html

Force UI mode

Hi I was wondering if there any setting or app that let me put notification at bottom. I Google and people say set DPI to 213 to force it bottom but its not working. I'm using carbon ROM and it doesn't have that tablet mode option. If any one knows please guide me thanks

I don't think this will help you, anyway. That build.prop tweak just gives you onscreen controls. I've never used Carbon so I'm not sure what the options are. PA includes a Tablet UI.
