I have a new Oneplus One and I was playing with Privacy Guard in Cyanogenmod 11. I really screwed up.
I denied Android Systems permission to wake up my phone.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. I just hit the wrong button.

Now I cannot wake my phone up.

Is there anything I can do?

Desperate.

Thanks.
 
Have you tried booting into safe mode and changing it? (sorry I don't know how to get safe mode on opo so you'll have to Google it)
 
Hold down power and volume-down simultaneously, see if it will go into recovery mode. If can get it into recovery, should be able to re-flash the firmware from that, may need to do a wipe data as well, and in theory it should reboot normally then, and be back to factory defaults. But it will lose anything that was stored on there. You've also got USB mass storage in recovery mode as well, which will allow you to retrieve any data on there.

The OnePlus One is very closely related to the Oppo Find 7, and IMO they're actually quite difficult to truly brick.

^this. Just reflash cm and gapps and wipe cache and dalvik (not data)
(or is it stock cm11 on an unrooted opo?)
 
It's stock cm11 on unrooted opo- new phone. However, your suggestions worked, mike and funky. I did a system restore in recovery mode. I am naive but learning. Thanks for your help, everyone!
 
Ahh so a reset restores permissions? Good to know mate. Cheers.
Glad you got it fixed (proud stock OPO owner here)
