ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION This app can get your precise location from location services while the app is in use. Location services for your device must be turned on for the app to get location. This may increase battery usage.
ACCESS_IMS_CALL_SERVICE Allows the app to use the IMS service to make calls without your intervention.
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected.
ACCESS_RCS_USER_CAPABILITY_EXCHANGE Internal platform permission, granted only by the system.

CAMERA This app can take pictures and record videos using the camera while the app is in use.
CAPTURE_AUDIO_OUTPUT Signature or privileged system permission. docs ↗
CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE Allows the app to change the state of network connectivity.
CONNECTIVITY_USE_RESTRICTED_NETWORKS 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.dialer
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.dialer
Re-enable
adb shell pm enable com.android.dialer
Restore (re-install for the current user)
adb shell pm install-existing com.android.dialer
