Disable enforced security by Exchange server

Hi!
I'm using my Vario II with a hosted exchange server provided by 1und1 and so I'm stuck with the enforced security settings.
Some time ago I read someone managed to disable this but unfortunately I don't find it any more. I tried the search engine but it didn't come up with what I was looking for.
Anybody who can help me?
Thanks!

With the enhanced security, are you not able to get anything working on your PPC? Or do you just not want it there? If it's the latter, I'd really like to know why you wouldn't want security on there.

Hi! Everything works fine. But I use this on a private basis and therefor it is unnecessary for me to use a password. Additionally I use an Anti-Theft-Software which is unlikely to be of any help if the device is password protected.
Apart from that it's just a matter of convenience. I've seen that it's possible and now I would like to try it.

I suppose telling your IT dept that you want to be on the password exception list is out of the question eh?

I'm using a hosted exchange. There is no way of changing the server settings.

Anybody help please?

Try the solution posted in the link below. I haven't tried it but I think it might help...

Thanks for your answer. I tried it but unfortunately this does not do the trick... :-(

Hi! If you just want to turn off the security check when you turn your phone on. You can go to SETTINGS->(the symbol with the key don't know what its called on english rom) and set the time to 24 hours. Now all you have to do is turn your phone on once within 24 hours...and you will never see the security keypad again. I hope that is of any help to you...

Thanks for the tip. It's already set to 24h. The reason I want to disable this is not just me being to lazy to key in the 4 numbers but to allow my anti-theft-software to work properly. But when the SIM is changed a softreset is performed and the Password is required before the thief's SIM can be activated and an alert SMS can be sent.
That's my problem.

WM6 Message Interception

Hi, i downloaded the Windows Mobile 6 Standard Software Development Kit then installed it and created a new WM6 Project with these:
Imports Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Forms
Imports Microsoft.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook
Imports Microsoft.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook.MessageInterception
but how come the application cannot intercept the incoming sms on WM6 smartphone? I tried it on a WM5 smartphone device and it worked.
Any help guys?

I've got absolutely no idea about Smartphone stuff - but is it possible that the tighter security model on the Smartphones requires a developer's certificate and signing etc?

hi Vijay, thanks for the reply. If it needs signing, how do i do it? also, i forgot to mention that the application did run on WM6, the only problem is the message interception part. It was not able to intercept the incoming sms, instead, it went diretly to the Inbox.

any help on this?
i tried this on my wm6 emulator and the application was able to receive the incoming sms. On a real device, it can't.

Sim lock is not easy to unlock ~I think you had better find some one who are Professional to help you .

Hi there,
Right I got my jade 110 (HTC Touch 3 G) unlocked with a similar unlocking software which I bought through h**p://jade.sim-unlocker.com/.It came with full set on instructions but it was specific for my IMEI & therefore it can not be used for any other phone.

cypher1055..The reason you can only unlock one phone, is if the software worked for any IMEI number, the people you purchased it from will lose custom, so software is set for only one phone.

[Q] hey guys. find my phone wont work.

hey guys i notice that "find my Phone feature wont work." i recently did the unlock hack via registry. is theres a way that may have done something ?? i have a Lg optimus 7
thanks

Check with another phone carier, I have same problem on one carrier it works, on another not. For tests use another phone number, it is not required that SIM card be in WP7 phone. If carier "support" this feature you will get SMS from microsoft, if not you are unlucky.
I guess microsoft (from live.com) use some global SMS carier and some carriers in different countries have not configured their gateways to accept this messages.

Well, one thing I noticed is if I am on WiFi or with data on, I tend to find my phone. Microsoft uses three different methods, I believe, to find your phone. One is using the location caching sent from your phone regularly if you have that on in the setting. The other is sending an SMS to force your phone to send a location, in which case your carrier needs to support global SMS I believe, and lastly, they send an email to do the same thing the SMS intended to do.
So first thing you should do is to check whether both boxes are checked in find my phone in settings. Secondly, be patient, if Microsoft can't locate it right away, they will send you an email when they do find it.

[Help] Focus HW Rev 1.4 not able to update latest mango

I bought focus unlocked from ebay.in. When i check on back side found my focus HW rev is 1.4. I am not able to upgrade my focus to latest mango 7720 even with force zune update. i m stuck on 7392. Please help

For now, you're stuck but AT&T promised an update for 1.4 very soon.
Before anyone else shouts at the moon about this, remember who created the issue, as someone nicely said in the last post here.
Good news is that Focus Mango update for revision 1.4 is scheduled for end of October, which means it's on the way. Read here and here.
Shortly:
rev 1.4(LSI) : Update has not entered the AT&T SPE lab yet; however, Samsung is targeting for 10/17 lab entry and 10/31 TA

Hi, I too purchased the Samsung Focus from eBay.in. It's HW Rev 1.4 too. It is supposed to be factory unlocked, so how does AT&T come into picture here?

All carriers have a list of the IMEI of the phones they sold and they share the database with Microsoft. When you connect to Zune, the MS database tells Zune that the phone belongs to carrier X and checks if the carrier has released the update (has given the OK). The carrier updates the database with the IMEIs supposed to get the update.
For a clearer picture, when you connect your phone in Zune it goes like this:
- Zune sends OS/hardware info to "MS Server 1"
- MS server 1 responds: yes there is an update for this OS/hardware
- Zune sends request to "MS server 2": is the phone's IMEI in the carrier allowed database?
- MS server 2 responds. if the answer is yes then you will get the update in Zune.
MS Server 1 checks update availability against hardware/OS
MS Server 2 checks the phone's IMEI against carrier's database
This is why Focus 1.4 update has been delayed by AT&T. MS Server 1 responds yes, there is an update but the carrier database doesn't have the IMEIs.

Thanks a lot for the detailed reply! So, I'll just have to wait till AT&T rolls out the update.
If I could bother you with one more thing - I can access the web marketplace for India, but I can't access it on the phone (it is on version 7392). Is there any workaround on Zune (the registry hack doesn't work anymore) that will get me access to this without Mango update?

It means that the regional settings on your PC are not set to India. You need to go to "Region and Language" in Control Panel in Windowns 7 (or equivalent) and set the country and related settings to India. It should work after that.

I should have been clearer. I meant I can see that there is an Indian marketplace where I can buy apps in Indian currency, but I can't access it via the phone or Zune. In Zune help section I saw that there is a tab for marketplace but it's missing on mine. All my location settings - laptop, phone and live ID are set to India.
The phone is amazing as it is, without Mango (I installed a 16GB MicroSD card in it) and only the marketplace is missing. That's why I was wondering if there was any workaround like the registry fix to access it.
Thanks!

I think I've read somewhere around the forum that what you ask is not possible but it's not my area, maybe someone else can help you.

Could you please tell me the name of the seller on ebay.in from whom you purchased your Focus? I am planning to purchase one too, and I don't want to end up with rev 1.4.
Thanks.
