Access Application permissions with Lockdown

Solved

Hi there,

is there a way to enable access to Application permission screen during Activity Suppression lockdown?

The screen is visible only for few milliseconds and it is not possible to enable the toggle.

Here the video:

Hi.

Add these two as a lockdown items.

com.google.android.permissioncontroller

com.android.settings

You can also try disable lockdown, go into permission settings and use script command

identify_activity

It will show permission screen activity name, and you will be able to add it as a lockdown item. 

Solution

Hi Lukasz,

com.android.settings works, com.google.android.permissioncontroller not.

Probably it is not a best pratice to allow settings access from the lockdown but it solves the issue.

Thank you.

You can hide it by removing the relevant entry from the template so that you still get access to the relevant prompts but not directly give possibility to open the settings.

Still not good but only possible way i know of as well.

Hi Rafael,

yes it is exactly what I've done.

Thank you very much.
