Inferno is pretty good:

I only get force stop, disable, clear data and clear cache in Maps settings.

It's probably a system app. If you're rooted, convert it to a user app then uninstall.

If anyone has a spare 10 minutes, you should check out the XPrivacy module for Xposed (root required).

It lets you revoke permissions on a per app basis.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2320783

You can list apps by the permissions they use -

Here I've filtered by apps requesting location access

And here I'm viewing an individual app's permissions (the ticked permissions are the ones it uses, the ones with the check boxes marked are the permissions I've revoked).

Finally! Been wanting this for some time now! Guess i'm going to have to root my phone soon

You're a star mate

Does XPrivacy work on any droid phone that's rooted I presume?

benjo · 14 Jul 2013 at 11:22

Yeah should do

Mike45450 · 14 Jul 2013 at 12:43

What's the best app in case I lose my phone? Something with the ability to upload a photo from the front facing camera if X unsuccessful login attempts and remote wiping/disabling would be ideal.

All these apps are free through the Amazon app store. The special offer is today only.
Don't know if they are any good but can't complain with them being free.
