Package intelligence

Observed signing, permission, version and size signals from contributing devices - descriptive of that sample, not a verdict. These come from the v2 Package Search sync, which not every device has contributed to yet, so for some packages this detail is partial or not present at all.

versions observed

device profiles

Signed by the device maker's own signing key (SMT_HK), so it is an OEM preinstall, but 7 different certificates appear across the fleet, so OEMs ship their own builds of it.
Its largest observed manifest declares 51 permissions: 10 runtime (user-granted), 19 signature or system-level, 18 install-time and 4 vendor or uncatalogued.
APK size ranges from 2.7 MB to 19.4 MB across the reporting device profiles, so the build differs substantially between them.

Declared permissions (51)

Largest permission set observed for this package. Text is Android's own published description where one exists; platform permissions Android does not document show their granted protection level (in grey) instead; vendor or unknown constants show the name only.

Permission	Description
`ACCESS_ALL_DOWNLOADS`	-

`ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE`	Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected.

`INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS`	Signature or privileged system permission.

Manage on devices

ADB commands for this package (the inverse of each is included so you can undo). Run from an authorised shell or wire the equivalent into your DPC. Verify on a test device first - this database doesn’t yet classify which packages are safe to change. --user 0 targets the current user; drop it (and use a privileged shell) to act device-wide.

Disable for the current user

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.android.camera2

Remove for the current user - a per-user uninstall; the APK stays on /system, so Restore re-adds it (-k keeps app data)

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.camera2

Re-enable

adb shell pm enable com.android.camera2

Restore (re-install for the current user)

adb shell pm install-existing com.android.camera2
