"Without permission you are not suppose to carry the cell phone inside the factory".- is this sentence correct?
 
You are not supposed to take your cell phone inside the factory without proper permission.
 
Thanks very much.

May I request other members too to post their views?

Just in case you're missing the important point, the expression is "supposed to".
You are supposed to ask. It is supposed that you will ask.
 
:up: This is hard to hear, because the /d/ assimilates to the /t/ (switching off the voicing). And because it's hard to hear, many people who have learnt by ear omit it.
