From the lock screen there's an option to switch "accounts", at the upper right hand corner.
Is there a way to (or how do you) assign a password to access the Owner account?

Pretty sure, haven't tried this myself on this device yet (as I have no need for guest mode), all you need to do si go to Lockscreen settings and set up a password/pin there.
IIRC, guest mode is multi-user in disguise, and this is how I set up a pin for normal functions on my tablet, and restricted access for the guest account.
Hope this helps.

Ah it does work, albeit sort of indirectly. If I add a PIN/Password to my lock screen then the guest user will not be able to go beyond my lock screen even if he/she switches to Owner mode.
But doing so means that I would have to enter a PIN/Password too each time I want to get passed my lockscreen. What I was looking for is that the PIN/Password be asked when switching to Owner account from Guest account itself, not the lockscreen of each account (or to-and-fro other accounts, if there are others).
True but you can now use Smart Lock in Lollipop to add a bunch of stay unlocked scenarios such as whenever you are holding the phone, certain gps locations you choose, Bluetooth or NFC devices whenever they are attached. Then your lock screen stays pretty much unlocked all the time you use it normally. But it will still ask for password or unlock pattern you choose when switching accounts.

Ah I see. I havent meddled around with the Smart Lock feature yet, as I really just prefer the swipe-to-unlock. I find any other way to unlock to be cumbersome as 90% of the time it's only me using this phone, the 9% being my SO, and the 1% being other people like friends and relatives.
While my SO uses this phone in Owner mode, I was hoping I could switch it to Guest mode each time a friend borrows it to send a text or call etc. and have the confidence the he/she cannot switch back to Owner mode easily.
Then 99% of the time I'd just have swipe-to-unlock and I wouldnt have to worry about Smart Lock or other privacy/lock settings.
I was just comparing it to a PC, because this is like having multiple accounts in one phone. But it seems to have very little application when I can just switch back to the administator account (the Owner account) without any password.

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.

on my wm5 ppc i removed the exchange account yet I can't turn off the pin security. Now thats annoying.

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.
Whenever I enabled my Exchange work email account, the phone forces me to set a password which drives me nuts, because I have to then set the screen timeout to at least 2 minutes so I don't go mad typing in the password every time I reach for the phone. I found a lock delay app which works great, but only after I disabled Exchange, so the screen times out after a minute but only locks out after about 10 minutes - MUCH better.
I just can't use this with Exchange as the 'security policy' over-rides everything and drops me back to password lock out with screen time out.
Any thoughts?
Lock Picker
Search Android Market for an app called Lock Picker by Jeroen Brosens. That should solve your problem.
And the Exchange Security Policy won't override this?

As far as I know, no. Lock Picker runs as a service which completely disables the policy. I.e. the phone will be locked no more. Works like a charm on my Desire. However, if you at some point have the need to remove and re-add the account remember to disable the service while doing so.
I found a few applications but no app by the name of 'lock picker' - I Lock Delay is great though as it sets a lock out different to the screen timeout.
Ideally one would be able to delay the lock past screen time out, I don't mind using a password (prefer in fact) but it's annoying to have to re-enter a password every two minutes, otherwise the screen is left on if I set the timeout for longer.
You could try this :
If your company is enforcing exchange security policy regarding password , but you want to use the lock pattern (Gesture) instead then you can do the following:
1. Delete your exchange Setup on the phone.
2. Go into Security and setup a lock pattern.
3. Once that is done and tested readd your exchange account.
4. Download the app called LockPicker from Market place.
5. Go into the program and enable the Override.
6. Enjoy the new way of unlocking your phone.

i also had this problem... when i setup my company mail account that the phone forced me to enter a password ...
so i just installed LockPicker and it worked ... no password entry screen anymore
great app !
- kr
Had the same problem too.
I made a new unlock pattern first, added my exchange account, installed LockPicker and then uninstalled it, works like a charm
Ok so I've installed lockpicker and removed the forced password. If I remove this app now, I can go back to before with the Lock Delay app? Can I also run custom lock screens on top too that display info on the lock screen?
The ideal set up is delayed password protection, say 20 minutes, with screen time out to 2 minutes.
Hi, I would need help with two tasker profiles (and a little hint for the 3rd one ;P)
1st - Connect and route all traffic through a SSH-Tunnel when I am connected to a WiFi which is not my home-WiFi:
I tried this with SSH-Tunnel but "killing" the app gives random pop-ups + problem report + restart of the app (even when killing with root). Any ideas?
2nd - Screenshot when wrong lock pattern was entered:
I found several guides for how to do it with a "pin lock" but it seems as "lock pattern" won't work with tasker?
3rd - Can I somehow let tasker read/speak the following things:
At which time is the next alarm and in how many hours/minutes is that (alarmdroid)?
Do I have any missed calls/mails/messages (whatsapp/sms/facebook/...) ?
Do I have any calendar entries today and which one is the first one ?
I plan on using those the following way:
Put phone into docking station near my bed - Let me know if alarm is set and when it is.. also tell me if there are any meetings on the next day.
When alarmdroid starts waking me up, tell me if I have any missed calls/messages/etc and how many calendar entries I have today.
Thanks
Idk about any of the other stuff but about question 2...There is an app called secure settings..this app pretty much adds functionality to tasker and if you are rooted it adds even more. But basically you can use pattern lock through tasker after downloading that app..I am currently using it to have my lock pattern turn off when im connected to my home wifi and then turns back on when im not connected to home wifi...
I had similar issues as you where it would only work with pin lock but now with secure settings, its work with pattern lock. Hope this helps.

In regards to question number 2, I'd skip setting this up via tasker and just get the app Cerberus, its a pay app but its amazing when it comes to the things it can regarding security of your phone, in case its lost/stolen. It does have the feature your trying to set up, works with pin and pattern locks. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lsdroid.cerberus&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5sc2Ryb2lkLmNlcmJlcnVzIl0.
no I don't like cerberus sry. Also I got Avast for that

and i appreciate the help I just dont like the app.

Regarding your #2 request, if what you are looking for is for the phone to take a picture of the user after a failed unlock attempt this is what I did in Tasker to accomplish this and more.
This will take a photo of the "intruder" after two failed attempts. With my Dropbox sync this photo is instantly uploaded to Dropbox for archival. Then the phone sends two SMS messages to my GV number, the first with the rough location based on the network and then another if GPS is able to locate them.
First you have to install the "Secure Settings" plugin from the Market. Also for photo archival I use Dropbox configured to backup my photos.
New Profile named "Unlock Fail"
Event>State>Plugin>Secure Settings

-Save

-Media>Take Photo

-Misc.>Get Location

>Message "Here is their exact location: %LOC"
Then on top of this I also created another profile that would fire off this same task if an SMS is received with the text "find me". This profile also sounds an alarm so I can locate the phone.

I would prefer Mail over SMS but the problem won't even go until the sending part as it won't even take the picture when the phone is locked with a pattern lock? Atleast for me here.

I do not seem to have that problem. I just tried it and it worked perfectly.
Now I have my phone configured for face unlock with pattern as a backup and my phone is rooted.
-Phone was locked with the screen off.
-Hit the power button and blocked the camera so face unlock would fail.
-Entered the wrong pattern twice. Once the second attempt failed I saw GPS activate and I heard the GV notification for the received SMS.
-I never unlocked the phone and checking GV and Dropbox from a different device and the messages were sent with my location and the picture was uploaded to Dropbox.
Not sure what else to say. I think I was asked to give Tasker administrative rights along with being rooted so maybe that is the difference.
i am rooted as well.. and tasker is in my SuperSU list :S
Rly weird
I will pay you for Tasker Profiles
I bought tasker because I see the incredible potential for the different profiles.
That being said I am dumb and find creating the profiles that I want a little bit overwhelming.
Is you are a tasker EXPERT on this site that would like to make some profiles for me that I could download & I will pay you for them.
An example profile would be:
IF I disconnect from Wifi Network by going out of range I want to automatically turn on bluetooth for for 10 minutes.
(Usually when I walk out of wifi range I am walking to my car which bluetooths music/calls off my phone)
IF within that 10 minutes I connect to a bluetooth device I would like to keep the bluetooth on until the pairing is broken. IF NOT bluetooth will be turned off after the 10 minutes
When the bluetooth pairing is broken I would like the phone to turn on Wifi for 10 minutes as I am usually walking to my office/house or place with wifi
IF within that 10 minutes a wifi network is connected then wifi will remain on IF NOT then wifi will be turned off
This is just one of probably 10 or so possible profiles I would like to create that are custom to my circumstances
I have a galaxy S4 Active from AT&T that is rooted
If you are interested in creating profiles for me please message me with your expertise & what a profile would cost
For most of you creating these things are childs play however for me it is not
This is my first time posting so if this is the wrong place to put this please direct me to a different area.
Hi everyone,
Q1:
I just noticed that Restricted account still has access to gallery. Is there a way to limit this access?
Q2:
As another question: Is there a way to log in and log out like Windows on kitkat? I mean I hate to enter my key every time I turn on the screen while working, and it would be nice if you can log out when you want to leave your device. Let me describe the situation a little more precise: I work with my device (e.g., reading papers) in work and some times I leave my office. When I am in the office it is a pain to have a passlock since I end up entering that many times. On the other side, every time I go out I have to set a passlock which is not very convenient!
I tested a passlock quick enable and disable app on my rooted mobile phone but it was not working properly and I can not use it for my tablet since it is not rooted.
Any solutions?
I need to have Microsoft Exchange on my phone (for work email) but that presents me with a dilemma, The system admin requires a pin or password, but does not accept the knock code as an adequate security measure. I am rooted so I just install Xposed and disable the stupid PIN requirement, but now the phone will sometimes turn on in my pocket. Are there any options in the middle? I would love to be able to re-activate knock codes on top of the Xposed keyguard disable, or at least have to swipe to unlock the screen to prevent it from excessive butt dialing.
Kind of a noob but can you post some instructions on how you bypassed the pin requirement for your work exchange? I need to do the same.

As it says in the OP
1) Install Xposed Framework - it is on on play, so Google it and sideload - you need root
2) Install one of 3-5 available keyguard disablers, my personal favorite is called... you guessed it, "Keyguard Disabler", it allows you to specify that a swipe is required after waking up, which reduces the possibility of "butt waking"
What is the safest root option for AT&T using a windows computer?
Generally for this situation it's easier to just use Touchdown or Nine, which will containerize your Exchange security within the app instead.

Mine requires the same, but seeing as the knock on option also requires a pin code as a backup, I don't understand why this won't work for you.

Exchange server policies don't recognize things like Knock Code and facial recognition and even fingerprints as a classifiable authentication method. Basically, on the Exchange side, you can "require a password," which forces password level of security on the Android generally. Enabling "allow simple password" lets you get away with using PIN code security. The protocol doesn't really know anything else exists, and neither does the Exchange server.
What should be happening is LG and Samsung and the others should be setting up their devices so that these alternatives appear as "simple password" to an Exchange server, since they're essentially equivalent. But clearly they're not doing so.

I think i understand. Exchange wont let me set up my work email without a pin code, but knock on works for me maybe because it also requires a pin code to set up.

That is not what he said. If your administrator requires a pin then knock code will not even be an option. If you can use knock code then your administrator does not require a pin.
The solution to my problem is to use the right keyguard disabler. There are at least three on the Xposed repository and they all behave differently. The best one for me is called "keyguard disabler" as it allows the option of nothing or slider as a lockscreen.

The police department I work for requires a PIN code in order for us to get work emails on our phones. If I have no security in place, I get a message saying I need to set a PIN. When I set up knock code, it also asked me for a PIN. My work email work email works on my phone, and yes, our Admin requires a PIN. Maybe I'm lucky and snuck through a crack or whatever.

Maybe this time LG implemented Knock Code properly, and made it appear as PIN security to the Exchange server? I could also see that being different between different carrier builds as well.
