How to lock some parts of Settings?

Question

My android device is rooted.

Like other android devices, there are many sections in Settings Menu like

Wireless & Networks
Device
Personal
Accounts
Systems

And in all above sections, there are sub-sections also like following..

In Wireless & Networks; there are SIM Management, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Data Usage and More settings …

I would like to lock some sections and some sub-sections of Setting Menu.

Is it possible to lock Setting Menu in section-wise or subsection-wise?

Please let me know, how to do it?

Regards

GNS

I don't think you can lock sections of settings, but you can lock whole settings with app like "App locker" and others like that

As per many experts, after rooting an android device, an end user has completer privilege for android device. However, its really an unfortunate that I can't lock Setting Menu in section-wise or subsection-wise. I am already using App Locker. – EinfoMail Jan 04 '17 at 20:51

it all depends on the ROM you've installed. For a primary user (on any ROM) you can't lock any setting like you intend to do.

But on some ROMs like MIUI, you can create a second user, where some settings like Mobile Data, SIM Card Management, Lock Screen Settings are locked and available only for the first user. I dont know about other other ROMs but MIUI does provide an option like that
