Hey there,
I use 1and1 for my exchange access and they require you to use some sort of security enforcement policy on your phone. On windows 5 I was able to put in a 4 digit pin and set it to only ask me for it after 24 hours of non-use. It also asked me for it on reboot. I keep my keypad locked because there's nothing I hate more than having my phone dial random people. To do this of course, I just held down the end key untill the screen locked. To unlock it, I just pressed the center button on the d-pad and the asterisk key. Everything was peachy.
Well in windows 6, they still require me to enter a PIN in and everything, BUT I cannot change the time in which it requires me to enter my pin to unlock. Additionally, every time I screen lock my phone I have to enter my PIN which is incredibly annoying.
Is there some sort of reg hack that I can fix this with?
No, the point of security enforcement is to protect the device from having sensitive data stolen and as a result these kinds of policies can not be overridden through any fashion except settings on the exchange server. You need to contact 1and1 and ask them to remove this policy, or switch to another exchange provider.
4SmartPhone doesn't pull this stuff.
Thanks for the response, but I don't think I made myself clear enough.
I don't want to bypass the security, I don't care about that.
I just don't want to have to enter my password every time I want to use my phone. Who does that?
Start>Settings>security>device lock
from there you should be able to adjust the phone's lock settings.
whether you want to get round it or not, it is most likely the policy set at 1 & 1's end and they need to adjust it at their end....
it might be that this function on the exchange works differently on the server cos it is windows mobile 6.
As WM6 is optimised for Exchange 2007, it could be a bug in the MS Activesync set up when using these policies on an exchange 2003 SP2 server.
I don't have a WM6 excalibur, but i can test it with an S710 and our Exchange 2007 server if you want....?
One more thought, delete the exchange partnership, and then go into the lock settings. Turn the lock on and set it to 24 hours.
Then go back in and turn it off. the time settings should stay at 24 hours even though it is turned off.
Then set up the exchange server. if you are lucky, it might just stay at 24 hours instead of the OS default of 0 minutes.
Be lucky....
try this:
Enable changing password lock time:
In the registry do the following:
\hklm\security\policies\policies\00001023 from 0 to 1.
i have the same problem with 1and1 using a cavalier with wm6. my real problem is that sometimes at startup the device gets stuck in t9 and will not recognize the numbers in my pin so i have to hard reset the device. 1an1 say they have nothing to do with the security password and will not help
Disable T9
Heh-heh, I never liked the T9 thingie on my T-Mobile Dash/HTC Excalibur. To turn the T9 on and off (toggle) press alt and then press space. This should toggle the T9 function of WM6 smartphones. At least, it did on my Dash.
Now, on with my crusade to unlock my Dash!!...
turning the t9 off is the same on the cavalier, but the problem is that sometimes this test rom decides to turn it back on at start up and other times it does not. it is really pissing me off.
thanks for the suggestion though. i just really need a way to dissable this security password.

cool that worked thanks!
Before you can change the registry keys, you need to run the "Application and CID" unlock program provided on this site. I did it on my Cavalier and it worked like a charm.
Any ideas anyone?
Hey mtvkilledusall -
Did you ever get this figured out? It is annoying the ****e out of me!!!
I'm the Exchange admin, and I'm considering turning off this "feature" for my device.
Like you, I just want to be able to KEYLOCK the device (so it doesn't dial 911 in my pocket, etc.), but I'd still like to keep the security.
This used to work fine on my MDA. Very annoying.

Same issue here after upgrading from Samsung Blackjack 1 to a Blackjack II, WM6 and 1and1 Exchange server. On top of that, after configuring exchange, my phone also looses the menus quick access numbers. Very frustrating.... Anyone found a fix yet?
Thierry.
I'm hoping someone can help me with this.
Using EnergyRom 28008 on a Touch Pro 2 I can't download email off of Comcast. I've had it working on a previous version of the ROM but I don't know why (if it was something I did, if it was the Rom, or some other variable).
Two things get my attention, but they may be nothing. First, is that after I've entered my email password, and save the settings, when I return to settings there are about twice as many stars in the password field as there are letters in my actual password. This occurs if I use manual setup or not. I'm thinking there's a chance it just fills the field with the same number of stars no matter what the real length of the password as a security measure. Or, it's saving my password incorrectly.
The other thing which gets my attention is that in the username field it saves it as "[email protected]" instead of just leaving it as "username". Saving and coming back, it's always adding on the "@comcast.net" part. I'm pretty sure this has to be a problem as Comcast wants the "@comcast.net" part left off.
Does anyone know of a solution? Is this just one of those wait and see things? They'll fix it eventually? Or is it a problem specifically with NRG's ROM? Is there a known solution, perhaps a registry setting I could change to work around the auto-botch effect? Any help would be very appreciated.
Hi!
I have a corporate app installed on my desire, which requires a screen lock with password to be enabled, and i can't seem to find a workaround, so the password stays
The only thing i can think of is to increase the timeout, until the phone gets locked, and i need to insert the password.
And here comes the problem. In my previous ROM, the maximum timeout was 15 minutes, and in my current ROM, there is no such option, to set a timeout, the phone locks right wenn i turn off the screen.(and i can unlock it only with the password...)
So here's the question: how can i set this timeout to more than 15 minutes. Where is this setting stored ?
I already googled, and found nothing. I was digging with sqlite3 in /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db, but i can't find this. Maybe it is more hardcoded ?
Please help me! This thing is killing me!!!
Well if your device is payed and given to you by your employer he has the right to put some restricting software on it (although I've never heard of such an android).
And what is this corporate app? Is it developed by your company, if it's strictly for use within the company, then no other one, besides the people in the company would know whether it has a function for more than 15 min timeout.
If you have permissions to install apps see if "No Lock" from the market works.

It is my own phone, the software is developed by my company. It installs a policy,that requires a phone lock password to be set. In the system... This lock can have a timeout, but maximum 15 minutes. I'd like to change this to 2hours or even a day. But there is no such option in the GUI, this is why I want to find where this setting is stored in the system.
I think you may have configured your Microsoft Exchange email on your phone. If you do that then the IT admins have the right to enforce a lock screen after 15 minutes. I have the same problem. Unfortunately there's nothing you can do about it, except look for a software that can over-ride the lock-screen.
There used to be a software called LockPicker. But I heard it does not work with Froyo anymore. So my suggestion is that either learn to live with it, or look for an overriding software

Yes, I found this thread also,and that setting is stored in that database I mentioned in the first post. The problem is, in my case it is not exchange. It is a different story.
There must be a solution for this. I mean if there is a setting in the GUI, then it must be stored somewhere! And it must be possible to change it...
It sound like they use a crypto-software or ssl certificate, if you bypass it or try to bypass it.
Your phone can be locked or not fully functional, and your it admins will be angry
I think there is a little misunderstanding here. Let me rephrase my question!
Does anyone know how to set the "lock phone after" time in the security settings menu of the phone to a value higher than 15 minutes?
If you don't see that option, then you are using a sense-less rom. I found it only in roms using sense.
It is a system setting, not an application password. I will try to create screenshots today, so you can see what I mean
TESTED ON MANGO, AND WORKED FINE
Gentlemen,
I have found the reg key in some posts to disable the lock code for the windows phone, if you have configured the exchange e-mail account in Phone.
I was unable to view the specific reg key in normal registry editor. So I have converted the reg key to an xap file by using provxml method. And you can apply the key even if you don't have the registry editor app installed on your device.
Steps:
1. Deploy the xap file to your developer unlocked device.
2. Launch the app.
3. Tap on the green button, it should gibe you a success message.
4. Uninstall the app.
5. It may require to restart the device, since this is a registry change.
5. U r done. Now u will be able to turn off your phone security code even if you have configured the exchange e-mail account in your phone.
I have tested on my chevron unlocked HTC HD7, and it is working fine.
Hope some one will be looking for this.
Note: it's recommended to keep your phone with lock code enabled, but sometimes we need to keep the phone unlocked for some reasons.
If you install this xap, it will enable another wonderful feature..
By default, the 10 invalid attempts will erase ur phone. But after you install this xap, the password will be locked out for 1 min after 5 invalid attempts. Then after each attempts, the lockout time will double. I have tried untill the phone lockedout for 64 minutes. Then I stopped trying with the invalid lock codes. It will help you to keep the data safe, if anyone play with the phone, especially kids.
Note: Please don't try after 5-6 attempts if the phone didn't get locked out, may be this not compatible on your device. You may lose your data. I applied this on my T-Mobile HD7, and it is working fine.
Hit thanks if you like my post..
Thanks
JAZEEL
So I just applied the registry change in your provxml, and it temporarily works,i.e. it enables the option in the lock and wallpaper screen to disable the password, but next time you sync email the policy is reenforced and you have to set a pin again.
Are you also changing the permissions to that reg key in your xap somehow? haven't got a machine with the dev tools handy to try the actual xap out.

I have tested myself, and it's a permanent solution. It's stays for ever. But I don't know what will happen if you reconfigure the exchange account..
Is there any way to keep a timeout for the lock? I find it very irritating to enter the unlock code every time the device wakes up

This is to disable the lock code on the phone if you have enabled the exchange account which will force to put the lock code.
To permanent developer unlock, please search in xda, someone already posted it before and I have applied that on my HD7.

Thanks for your response, the only reg i've ever found to disable the lock on my device is the one you posted and built into your xap file. For some reason the reg doesn't exist in my phone and I can't create it either.
Most likely why you put this together for us. But on my end here, I now have to app to my phone, once I go to launch it I get the message from my previous post, it just wont deploy/launch. Any ideas up i'm for trying.!!
Thank you,
The reg key is protected, so you can't browse to it, but you can still use a tool like advanced explorer to set it by manually specifying the full path and value to change.
I was able to set the value manually like this, but like I mentioned the value is set back automatically next time your phone sync's with exchange. The policy must get checked on every sync with exchange, and gets set back if your exchange server requires a PIN policy.
From what I can ascertain this XAP simply sets that value, so you would have to run this xap after every sync which isn't a great solution.

I have tried it as mentioed in some old posts. But it is not working. Only thing I could do is to activate the ON/OFF button with this reg key, so that I can disable the code at any time.
I presume you guys know this already, but just for the heck of it.
You're bypassing a policy. A policy that's most likely you companies' policy. If you do lose your phone and people are able to access files or e-mails that are highly important and/or confidential, you could take the blame for leaking this information.
This could mean the company would sue you for all kinds of things, and it would be very much possible they would fire you. There is a reason the policy is enforced.
I can see why you want to disable the policy, but, as said, there is a reason your company wants that policy on a device that connects to their Exchange server and it's not to annoy you.

You are right. I recommend to keep the phone locked always.
It meant for some situation, where we need the phone need to be stayed unlocked. Atleast we should have the option for it.

Thanks mum. But seriously...
I think this is a perfect example of a security policy being set which isn't realistic, so users find workarounds. Like when you mandate everyone has a 50 character password which has to be changed once a week, everyone simply ends up writing them down on post it notes.
The PIN code every time you want to use your phone is bloody annoying. It could improved to make it more useable, e.g.:
Only require a PIN if it's been more than 30 minutes since you last entered it.
Only require a PIN when accessing data in exchange like calendar/email.
Specify certain actions which don't require a PIN unlock, e.g. playing music or games.
Anyhow this is mostly irrelevant as this hack is only temporary and the setting reverts so that's a killjoy.

Lol, you have a point, but or colleague above is quite correct, the policy is enforced for a reason. At my company, such an offense can mean instant dismissal
(if you use exchange for just calendar and contacts, as i do, a pin is not required to unlock, the policy is only enforced for email strangely enough....)
I agree the Pin should be how it was in WM 6.5 where you could have it only ask after 2 hours or evey 24 in some cases. That way if was a good balance. This business of requiring the PIN every time you look at your phone is crap. I have removed it from my droid device and I am fornunate that my company will not hassle me over it. Still though its a bunch a crap to enter it every 5 minutes.
My company uses an Exchange server for email, and it works great....except for one thing:
Due to their arcane policies, I am only able to use a pin lock on my phone. All of the other lock options are disabled, even face unlock. Also, they have the screen set to time out at 1 minute, which sucks when trying to use pretty much any application.
Does anyone know of a way to override these policies since my device is rooted?

You could also get Enhanced Email from the market. Although its pricey, it works great.
That is not arcane at all, those are good security practices. This is why Android still lags behind apple and rim at the enterprise level - too many easy hacks to bypass the security that businesses need. Faceunlock can be cracked by a polaroid and many swipe patterns can be guessed by looking at fingerprints on the screen.
Honestly, with all the personal information that resides on a smart phone I don't understand why everyone doesn't have a strong pin on their phones. Hope your buddies don't swipe your phone at the next party, unlock it with a facebook pic, and play some prank with your work email account.
for me I guess its the stupid 1 minute lockout period. For example, if I am trying to use my phone as a GPS, I only get to see the screen for 1 minute. BOOM...locked out.
Pandora... NOPE. locked out after 1 minute, sure the music still plays, but I have to unlock the stupid phone to change songs and what not.
Scold me all you want virtualcertainty, the minimum 6 character pin, and 1 minute lockout drives me nuts.
Wasn't trying to scold you, just explaining the risks involved and the reasons for the policies. I wouldn't recommend to any of my clients to set policies lower than that. And I know a bunch of people that want an android for work but the IT department won't issue one or even allow people to use their own because of the work arounds.
My work policy is a 4 character pin with 1 minute time out. I exceed that on my device - 5 character pin and 30 second time out. In no time you won't notice it at all.
I don't know if this is a bug, but I have been able to remove the pin lock policy on my exchange account EVERY time

Then you should probably talk to your employer about it. This is an extremely basic security practice, and like multiple people have already said the easy "hack" to get around the practices is the exact reason most employers don't allow Android users access to their Exchange servers.
My company doesn't allow any Android phones on their Exchange network, exactly for this reason.
BTW, just for reference, it is possible to implement monitoring tools in an Exchange server to notify the administrators of changes to security features. Most employers wouldn't even talk to an employee that's violating security practices...it's just "Here's your box and there's the door". Complain all you want about them, but they're there for a reason. I wouldn't risk it just to escape having to input a key combination.

Im totally aware of a company eanting to protect thier IP. I dont even mind having some sort of lock on my phone. But it would br nice to be able to at least bump the lockout time a bit to make the phone useable. Or at least let me do pattern lock.
Theres no sense in trying to make this a pissing contest on security policies.
soapbox,
I sign up to get company email on my own phone as a convenience to both of us. If their security policy was so strict that it made it difficult to use my phone, that convenience would go away and any after hour emails would have to wait until the morning. Obviously not everyone can get away with that, but luckily I can.
I second trying EE,
I picked up Enhanced Email from the amazon app store when it was the free app of the day and have been happy with it(It can disable exchange policies). I do have the lock feature on my phone enabled however because I also use Google Wallet, so I want a little extra protection.
So, you need my phone an also need two separate passwords to use Google Wallet. Hopefully by that time I will have wiped my phone and/or located it.
once on a custom rom, ive never had a problem with exchange security settings. unless i'm going out for a big night (and might lose my phone) i leave the security off.

If you are able to turn off the PIN lock while using corporate exchange mail then your exchange server does not have the required security policy.
Unless there's something else you've done which you didn't post.

Yep, that'll be the server as I get a security pop up and you can't dismiss it. Once setup all other lock options are off limits.
The annoyance for me was the inability to change the time out period, it made it unusable in certain situations.

BooDaddy... I'm an IT Director for a large, publicly held company. We allow iPhones and Android devices to use our enterprise Exchange email with a 4-digit PIN, 1-minute lock AND the understanding that we can wipe the employee's phone if necessary. Installing software to circumvent this security would violate our security policies and would result in a disciplinary action.
Is this your personal phone or did your company provide it?

Not really relevant, just curious because if the company bought it and pays the monthly costs then you really shouldn't have too much to complain about. So I guess it's your choice to connect to the Exchange server, I would never expect a company to mandate corporate email on an employee's personal phone.

While its not mandatory for me to have it, it is very handy since I am a systems admin (Linux) and its nice to get alerted via logwatch emails when something bad happens.
