Is it possible to remove permissions from an Android application?

I am new to Android. I've been looking for a way to remove a permission of other app. For example, I don't want an app to send SMS. Is it possible?
Thanx in advance.

Thanx for the replies.

Actually, I am in middle of coding where I want to restrict the manifest permission of other application.

Since, these kind of applications exist in market, then this is possible. Any more help or any reference would be so helpful.

thanx again.

You need to be rooted for that, and there are already programs on the market that allow you to do it, for example LBE Privacy Guard

NOTE: This program doesn't work with Android 'Jelly Bean' at the moment

Welcome to stackoverflow. As far as I know, what you want to do is not possible without rooting your phone.

This site is a Q&A-site for specific programming questions. A suggestion is that you try it out for yourself, and when you've stumbled upon a specific problem with your code you can ask a question here. That way you'll have a much easier time getting answers! Good luck!
