    Can this be used to deny apps access to sensors like the accelerometer or gyroscope? Android has no permission control for those and they open up quite serious security vulnerabilities.

      Yes, everything. Let me post how I have Google Play Services, Google Camera Go, Carrier Services and Google Camera Go crippled on my device. (Seems Lemmy threw up an error due to height of image. ZIP file of JPGs it is.)

      All of my apps are setup with AppOpsX, according to my FOSS smartphone guide. GPS is one uncontrollable permission for some reason, so just use the the GUI permission system to have it disabled. Maybe it has the “allow while using app” option, interfering with AppOpsX for some reason.
