After reading the android device administration tutorial at vendor site, I have wondered that, Is it possible to disable hardware component of android device so that any application can not enable it ? Is this way system administration possible in the Android OS ?
If by “hardware component”, you really mean “camera”, then yes, the device admin APIs can block access to the camera.
If by “hardware component”, you really mean “any hardware component”, then no, the device admin APIs do not allow you to block the screen, CPU, GPU, battery, keyboard (if present), sensors, etc.
