Hello,
So far only Sense ROM does support proper Exchange security.
So i was wondering if any other ROMS has support for it?
i am tired to try each ROM one by one.
Please, if you do not know what you are talking about, do not reply thank you!
Since Android 1.0, Exchange security has never ever been supported, juts basic stuffs, preventing any Enterprise customer using Exchange email on Android.
Thanks
Best

It depends on which specific Exchange security features you refer to. CM7 supports some but not all of them. The most used ones are supported though, such as settings password rules, remote wipe, monitoring of unlock attempts, locking the screen. Those are the ones my work specify at least and they do work. It does however not support encryption of the storage until Honeycomb (ie. ICS if talking about phones).

well i would have to disagree here but i am not here to start a conflict just to find the best ROM for me. right now only sense allows PIN code as password and timeout and number of retry... This sounds so simple as it can't be true... but it is. CM7 does not work either for me...i triedSamsung GTAB as well, same issue.
i found a email.apk that suppress security that i will try and will let you know.
FYI Iphone works perfectly here and they struggled the same way on the first iphone, but they corrected it very fast...
Hopefully google would do the same but nothing has happen yet.
Thanks for the reply

Did the email.apk suppressed the security? I could not find one for CM, let me know if you have one which is working.
Thanks
Using the built in email client I can no longer send email's. I get the on-screen message of "Saved as Draft". I haven't changed the programs configuration to cause it. I did install Droidwall, but I disabled it as a test, no effect. I did also as a test change the outgoing server to a different one for my ISP. both the original and new servers SEEM to test right, i get no error when the email client tests the settings, but I don't get a Success either. I am also on my home network so no issues there with it having to handle extra security by coming through another ISP.
Anyone seen this on the email client in HC3.2?
@Nova5 - My few thoughts on this problem. What is your setup? i.e. (1) Are you rooted? (I'm guessing you are) (2) Are you using a custom ROM, if so which one? (3) Are you using a custom Kernel, if so which one? (4) Have you installed any updates which might be causing the problem?.
I use stock "Email", personal preference, because I like it better than "Gmail" and don't experience any problems. I'm on "KEKINASH's near-stock 3.2HC ROM with stock Kernel". This reply may not directly help solve your problem but may give you or others food for thought.
it was the rooted stock iconia 3.2 rom found on this forum.

Very little if any difference in the rom I'm using. In which case it's cold comfort and not very helpful for me to say that Email runs with no problem on my setup, both receiving and sending. At a loss to suggest why it doesn't run for you. Perhaps some other poster might have an inspiration.

Nova5, since this worked previously and it looks like you installed a firewall (DroidWall), it does sound like the likely culprit. Have you tried uninstalling it instead of disabling it? I'm not familiar with that software but disabling it may not necessary be stopping it from blocking access.
Keep us posted.
I'm a samsung Dive User. My phone was stolen, and recovered thanks to that.
I know there are ways to bypass that (not going to discuss that here) but they require some knowledge that's not available to common users.
Recently, i found that in the Stock ICS, it's possible to remove the samsung account without any effort. just click remove. that's a serious issue, since it's supposed to be a security feature, it should be difficult (almost impossible) to remove. Users rely on that in case of loosing their devices.
GB didn't let you remove the samsung account without wiping, and didn't let you wipe (in the documented way) the phone without the account's password.
if you try to wipe the stock ICS, it will warn you to remove the samsung account, witch you can do (As instructed by the wipe dialog) just removing it
Samsung need to fix this, but, since they do (if they do it) users should be aware of that, and know they are not secure just with samsung dive.

Really? I'm trying right now: you need to enter the password to disable remote controls and you simply cannot remove the Samsung account without a factory wipe (like the primary Google account).

I can just go to account and click remove... and it goes away. I tried this in a few stock ICS versions. LPQ, LPS, LP4, and LP7
In GB, it works as you describe

If anyone else can confirm this behavior, please reply.
Am i the only one with this behavior?

I never used such features but there might be an option u will have to enable to make it ask for a password?

Yep, on XWLP8 and you can simply remove the Samsung account removing Dive / remote control features... :thumbdown: sigh

LP9 Singapore is the same. Account can be removed without even beying asked for a password.
This needs to be adressed to Samsung
Tried it on LP8, yeah easily removed, guess locking the screen with pattern or pin is necessary if you don't want someone to remove it.
And who the hell rate this thread at one star when it brings up valid security issue? Seems we have some one star ninjas who go around just to crap on threads.
Thanks to all that confirmed this issue... This os a big issue

Hi, I'm trying to activate de dive features on ICS stock 4.0.4 and I don't find the "remote" setting.

Other down point is that now when you use it, messages appear on the device's notification bar: "find my mobile" ... "found by samsung". It's just missing messages like "turn off the phone now, cops'll be here soon", or even better: "wipe samsung account and do a factory reset immediately if you want to keep this mobile for yourself"

Same here with 4.0.3 LPD; somehow, overnight, my phone lost many of its settings, including the 'remote controls' and 'SIM change alert' settings for DIVE. Attempting to enable them resulted in a wait pop-up for a bit, then they automatically unticked. I was able to delete my Samsung account as the OP describes; when I re-created it, 'remote controls' was automatically re-enabled, and I could enable 'SIM change alert'. DIVE's "Ring My Mobile" function doesn't work any more though. It didn't work with GB 2.3.5, and started working again after I upgraded to ICS 4.0.3 LPD.
Is Samsung's firmware the buggiest in the business, or what?
in ics and jb it's gone like never exist .
i tried anti virus's but they removed with wipe too.
is there any way to stop wiping?
Remote controls are present in XWLPT. Trying to untick them requires the Samsung account password to be entered

As an "exercise in personal growth" (and also to let the rooting, rom, Knox, stuff shake out) I'm giving it a go staying stock.
It actually isn't half bad and I'm down to two last minor problems that I can't figure out and I'm hoping someone has some wisdom to impart.
1. How do I disable automatic contact linking? My business partner and my company got linked because they shared both an address and a phone number. I fixed that but I don't know what else has been auto-linked. (Even just within Google contacts... I'm not talking about Facebook/Google linking but I wouldn't want that either)
2. How can I get the weather to show on the Lock Screen? CyanogenMod it was "just there" (at least I don't remember having to add it)
Thanks in advance if anyone can help!
P.S. As I mentioned I'm trying to stay stock if possible. I realize I could probably do at least the weather with rooting and installing something and I am open to rooting if absolutely necessary.

Might not work if you have security on your lock screen though. Samsung in their infinite wisdom really messed up the vanilla Android lock screen.

Yeah... I can't get it to work... At least not in any "obvious" way. (Long clicking, etc).
And I have to agree with you... I'm assuming that an S-View case isn't going to work with any security enabled either?
If so, it really sucks that "premier headlining" features don't work with security enabled.

Hello everyone.
First I want to tell that I am really dissapointed how Samsung complicate things for us user and now to two problems I have.
First:
Did anyone figured out how to use security certificate (pfx extension) without need to change to pattern lock so I can use lockscreen widgets?
Is there any way that certificate can coexist with swype option (for instance using cert. in different browser so Android wouldn't be "aware" and would allow you to use swype.
I know it is security concern but this is free choice for user. Isn't it?
Second:
Since Samsung added knox I though that is nice so I can now add all security concerned applications (exchange mail, pfx certificate etc) to knox which would be secured by pin and for personal use I would use swype lockscreen etc. But hell no... Dammsung did it again. It allow to use excange mail in knox but it doesn't allow to install certificate there. It say that security policy prevent to install certificate there. Wtf?
Btw since I know about knox problem with rooting I would like to solve this without it(I rooted s3 numerous times but again dammsung did it again and I hope they will figure it out that with such steps they are loosing users which bought android phone because of possibilities to customize.)
Help please!

You will need root but there is an xposed module to give you lock screen widgets whilst still keeping the security pin or pattern. see here
Thx. So no solution without root maybe on 4.4?
