I got my Asus Transformer today and it did the 3.1 update. I went to the email app to add my work email which uses IMAP and when I get to the smtp section it won't accept my settings. We tried it on a co-worker's Xoom with 3.1 and it worked fine. In installed the CA certificate via external storage but no luck. Here is the error I get:
Cannot safely connect to server.
(SSL handshake aborted: ssl-0xz851450: Failure in SSL
library, usually a protocol error
error: 140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:
unknown protocol (external/openssl/ssl/s23_clnt.c:683
0xad12b3f8: 0x00000000))
Does anyone have any ideas or know a work around for this. I have the settings set to TSL (Accept all certificates) with port 587.

I have moved your post to the General Forum as it did not belong in the thread you posted it in. Please keep any posts specific to the thread in future.
Mark.
In smtp config, wipe your pre-filled login/password fields, then uncheck authentification request box, then press next. It should work.

same problem here
damn, same problem here. I need to authenticate to my smtp server, so wiping user/pass is not an option.
Any news on this ?
Thanks,

SMTP problem
Also facing this issue, works fine on my Galaxy 2.3.4 but not on 3.1 on Asus EEE TF.
Same problem here. My HTC Legend connects to my SMTP mail server just fine, but Honeycomb does not...
I don't think it's an Asus problem, it's a more widespread Honeycomb problem with SSL/TLS.
Interesting to note: Worked on my Iconia with 3.0, and continued to work after updating to 3.1 until I needed to change my password. Now it's like it doesn't save the TLS + port setting (I use a custom port.)
I have this problem, too.
I createt an issue on the android-bug-tracker.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=19109
Hit the yellow star to get this issue fixed sonner than later.
I had this problem too with pop3 account, all I need too do is to delete the login and the password then uncheck the authentification button. If you just uncheck the button it won't work. I guess it's the same for imap.
Tried that already unsuccessfully.
Like @rhaaa I need the user/pw for authentication.
Under the SMTP settings screen make sure the 'Require Sign-in' is checked on and then clear both the Username and Password fields and then uncheck the 'Require Sign-in' box.
It should work after that.

Still getting the same error as the OP. Third party programs seem to work fine, just the default email program causing issues. Any help would be appreciated.
The Android issue 19109 (not allowed to post links) says it's fixed but not released. As I understood it has been fixed in the email app. (And I didn't follow Android development closely but the source code of Honeycomb is still hidden, right? So there is no way to fix that?)
That's quite annoying. I just got a Transformer and almost the most essential thing does not work. (Actually I bought the thing for my wife for web and mail :-()
Does anyone know workarounds or alternatives? K9 is nice on my phone but it's not very nice on a tablet.
Asus android 3.2 smtp fix
Hello,
I found the following solution on the WEB; this is the only good solution today :
Think I got it!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brian,
I think I worked it .... Went through all the setup again (as you described) but on the OUTGOING SETTINGS I deleted the username and password before unticking the box for secure sign in - that is, delete what's there and then uncheck the box - and it worked.
Screen displays something like
Secure Check-in (with box ticked)
Username [email protected]
Password ***********
Delete both so it looks like
Username
Password
and then uncheck the tick from Secure Login
I also changed the PORT from the one presented (587 I think) to the one I normally use 25 so you'd need to do that as well.
I've got some email notifications in and sent myself a test email that came through. I hope this works for you. Let me know.

Workaround / possible solution
Using STARTTLS instead of SSL/TLS works. This is for connecting to smtp.office365.com. Hope it helps others like me.
Hi, I have a Nexus S running 4.0.3 and I have a password (the alphanumeric one) set on it. (someone else set it, it's all a really dumb situation)
I thought that if you couldn't remember your password that you could log in with your main Google credentials, but I see no such option, even after failing the password 70 times!
If I can't do that then how can I get around this password?
Thanks for any help!

It gives you the option to change your password Just click: "Can't access your account?" @ google account sign in via your pc, you'll then be asked to give your e-mail adress & proceed from there!

Ah no, what I meant was there's a password on my phone which I can't remember.
I know my Google password.
You can try Screen Lock Bypass App
I used it on my old phone, worked
havent tried it on nexus s though
works by downloading it from market.android.com
if it works, you can get in to save data/pics and then wipe the phone
it wont recover the pw thought
Never mind, just decided to do a hard reset from recovery. Shame though.
I recently had to add my corporate email account to my S3. I was required to add a PIN or password, which I wasn't real fond of, but I understood why so I did it.
Now, having been issued a work phone, I do not need my email on my personal device anymore so I removed it. However, I cannot remove the need for a PIN/password.
If I go into my lock screen settings and attempt to change to a different unlock type it notes that they are disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage.
As a result I have removed all applicable device administrators (minus Tasker and Cerberus), cleared device credentials and removed my SD card as it notes that it is encrypted.
All of this has been to no avail as I still cannot change my lock screen type. Any suggestions on what is causing this issue? I asked our IT company and they said "Call Verizon." Um.... thanks?
Thanks for the input guys!
Bump. I would hate to have to wipe my phone to fix such a silly issue.
Halp.
Did you install something called device policy? We had to do this through our school email in order to be able to get our email on our devices. I also had the problem of not liking a security lock screen so I removed it. I don't know if this helps or not, but here are the steps, according to my school ITS website.
On your device, go to Settings > Security
Press Select device administrators
Uncheck Google Apps Device Policy
Press Deactivate.
Go to Settings > Applications and click the Google Apps Device Policy app
Press Uninstall to remove the application

I appreciate the input by unfortunately did not have Google Apps device policy under my device administrators or installed applications.
I was however able to fix this by going to Settings > Security > Encrypt external SD card and unchecking encrypt. I was only allowed to uncheck this value after creating a 6 digit password though.
Hope this helps somebody. Thanks!
Have you ever been to a place where you have to go enter your credentials to log into via a wifi captive portal?
Those things are present everywhere now from Guest Wifi networks at hotels to corporate Wifi networks. I was annoyed at having to enter my credentials again and again every day so I made this app to automate that task. You just have to record your login steps only ONCE and WiFi Auto Login replays them when ever required without any manual interaction from you. This app works fine for Android versions from Ice Cream Sandwich to Marshmallow. Let me know if you guys find any issues in using my app.
Without further Ado, Here is the app .

When you come up against any captive portal, my app will automatically pop up and ask for your credentials to log into that portal, let me know if you find that non-intuitive I will look into adding a info screen on first install of the app.

Just to check that out, I have tried to logged out 3 times, but nothing happens. In fact I have set Automate authentication ON but no help.
To my knowledge, I had to submit credential in order to logged back IN.

When the Wifi Sign In is requested, it might open up a browser automatically, make sure you are entering your credentials inside my app and not in the browser. And make sure you tick on "Store Password" and also "Automate this for this site everytime" when you enter the credentials.
And finally, if you do not mind, can you tell me the credentials requested by your captive portal?
Weather username, email and password or does it require anything more custom?

Hey any updates?
Let me know if it worked and if it is automatically logging in for you now correctly.
I am looking for feedback if it worked, or I might have to tweak my algo a bit to search for more custom values in credentials..

Nope, not exactly how you're describing.
After several attempts only once it showed a pop up to login but that to for browser only there wasn't anything inside your app.
I am guessing may be my method could be wrong in order to do it correctly. Also I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it., But every time it shows some test.portal site? Is it by default?
IMO some more tweaking may require and Authetication duration is quite long, It should be once and Boom! But it takes 2-3 attempts just to get login page, and that happened only twice which links to browser for login and not into your app.

If you do not mind, can you tell me the credentials requested by your captive portal?
Weather username, email and password or anything else?
And here is a short tutorial till I can incorporate a tutorial into my app :
1) You can just ignore the test.portal or you can press the checkbox next to it and press the delete button at the bottom to delete it. That will not affect anything else, I will remove it in the next iteration of the app.
2) Notice the very big button called "checking.." at the bottom of the app after you open it? Please wait for a few seconds and if it detects that you are connected to a Wifi network but not connected to internet, it will turn to "Authenticate". Once that button is enabled, you just click that button and it should take you to another screen in my app with blue background saying "I see you are having troubles logging into this WiFi Automatically. I can help you automate it." and ask for your username and password or email and password or whatever it is that your portal requires. (Note that this entire step is optional since when you turn off your wifi and turn it on and internet is not connected my app should automatically pop up and ask for your username and password but for some reason this doesn't seem to be happening in your case).
3) And make sure you tick on "Store Password" and also "Automate this for this site everytime" when you enter the credentials.
4) Make sure the big button next to "Background authentication is" has ON and that's it, my app will fire up everytime you are connected to Wifi but not connected to internet and it will automatically enter that credentials you entered to my app.

Sorry for delay in response actually.,
1,3,4 Steps I have done correctly
2 Step is where all problem lies, as you assumed I am not receiving any pop ups as you've mentioned here. After hitting Authenticate, it started to search something but after a while it comes back to Authenticate option again. After few attempts it lead me to link to browser where I suppose not to enter the credentials. Since you told me not to enter those into browser I've tried looking for an option inside your app. But no luck.

Weird, when you press the Authenticate button it shouldn't search anything at all, it should immediately move you to the credentials screen.
Can you please try one more thing to see if that works?
Manually turn off and after a few seconds turn on your wifi when you are logged out of the captive portal. That should trigger the WifiReader to re-read the info again.

I'm sorry to say, But that way also not working. In fact I've tried several different ways to get into it. So far only once it shows to enter credentials and that to with Browser link to open. There's nowhere i could be able to look for an option to enter credentials.
Something is missing for sure. :fingers-crossed:

Sorry to hear that, but anyways thank you very much for your feedback.
I really appreciate that.
I will try to add an option to send debug logs to me before production release to handle these kind of situations.
This app works fine. Thanks for making my life simpler. There are more than 15 access points for the guest wifi, when I go to a different floor or to a washroom, wifi gets disconnected. Thanks for making this app, it saved a lot of time and frustration. It is very easy on the battery and does its job in milliseconds.
Just put your name and contact in the app, I had to search entire XDA to find this post to say "Thanks!"
There are a couple of different Public WiFi that use Captive Portal and request a form fill to let users in.
However none of them seems to work.
Willing to test and provide useful info to help in developing...
@anantharam, are you still working on this? I just tried it out on my Pixel 2 running Android 9 and it shows that it's online when the networks are still asking for sign-in and the sign-in notification is still showing.
My city recently installed free wifi downtown, which is awesome, but I have to keep jumping through these pages to use it. Your app would be a godsend!
@MMcCubbing Thanks for your interest in this.
Unfortunately the app is currently taken down from the play store for some licencing reasons, I am trying to work with Google to try to bring back the app.
As for your particular question, if my app shows it is online, then it means my app is able to talk to the internet. At that point if you go to your browser and try to go to google.com do you get any error or are you getting connected correctly?
My app is mainly intended for usecases where you are not connected to the internet without giving a user name and password in a captive portal.

Hello,
We have a Choose "Your Own Device" policy in our company where users can purchase many devices from a catalogue (Android and iOS).
When employees leave the company, they return the device to IT where it is wiped and handed to the next user if device still has warranty.
Reason I mention that is because I don't want comments like "is it stolen" etc...
How to bypass the Google Account protection when doing a factory reset?
We don't own an OTG cable.
I have tried with the method using SideSync to open Google Chrome and download the APK that opens Settings.
Then, via the Samsung Apps installed a File Explorer to install the APK which actually brings me to settings where I can do a factory reset.
However, that doesn't work. I still get the Google protection after the reset.
Not even sure if it will work with an OTG cable as it would actually do the same thing.
Did anyone successfully bypass this on a Samsung?
OK, I just managed to bypass this freaking FRP!
Just a combination of different methods I've found.
Phone was:
Samsung Galasy S3 (SM-J320F)
Android 5.1.1
Not sure if this will work in Marshmallow.
What I did:
Downloaded and installed Samsung SideSync on my PC and started it
Start device until you see the Google Account Protection (or whatever you call it)
Connect phone via USB to PC which shows a small popup menu on the phone
From that menu, open Chrome
Browse to: http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Apps
Download the file: com.sika524.android.quickshortcut.apk
6a. This is the Quick Shortcut Maker
Hit the back button until you see the first page in Chrome and hit OK to start the Samsung Apps
7a. If you closed Chrome, just unplug the USB cable and connect phone again
In Samsung Apps search for ES File Explorer and install it (or any other File Browser)
8a. You will be prompted to login with your Samsung Account to be able to install the app, just do it
Open ES File Explorer and install the APK that you've downloaded before (it's in the Downloads folder)
Open Quick Shortcut Maker and wait for all apps to populate
Scroll down and tap on "Google Account Manager" to expand it
Scroll down until you see the one with the description "Type Email and Password"
12a. For some reason I had 2 entries saying "Type Email and Password". I just selected the first one.
Tap "Try"
Go the menu in the right top corner and select "Browser sign-in"
Login with your own Google Account
Hit the "Back" button until you are at the first screen again or at least until the Wi-Fi selection
Now follow the wizard, you have successfully added your own account and the other one is forgotten

What I did:
Downloaded and installed Samsung SideSync on my PC and started it
Start device until you see the Google Account Protection (or whatever you call it)
Connect phone via USB to PC which shows a small popup menu on the phone
From that menu, open Chrome
Browse to: http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Apps
Download the file: com.sika524.android.quickshortcut.apk
6a. This is the Quick Shortcut Maker
Hit the back button until you see the first page in Chrome and hit OK to start the Samsung Apps
7a. If you closed Chrome, just unplug the USB cable and connect phone again
In Samsung Apps search for ES File Explorer and install it (or any other File Browser)
8a. You will be prompted to login with your Samsung Account to be able to install the app, just do it
Open ES File Explorer and install the APK that you've downloaded before (it's in the Downloads folder)
Open Quick Shortcut Maker and wait for all apps to populate
Scroll down and tap on "Google Account Manager" to expand it
Scroll down until you see the one with the description "Type Email and Password"
12a. For some reason I had 2 entries saying "Type Email and Password". I just selected the first one.
Tap "Try"
Go the menu in the right top corner and select "Browser sign-in"
Login with your own Google Account
Hit the "Back" button until you are at the first screen again or at least until the Wi-Fi selection
Now follow the wizard, you have successfully added your own account and the other one is forgotten

There is no way that this method could work on the SM-J327T1. This phone did not come out until 2016 and the link you provided show that any firmware before 12/01/2015?

On the add wifi menu, just input any letter then select it all or long press until context menu will pop out. select google assist. type settings or use google speech to search for settings. select the settings then go to accounts, add samsung account. either log in existing account of create new account. follow on screen instructions and required fields to be issued. when done, restart your phone. Factory protection should be skipped and "account added" message will appear. follow final procedure for setting up your phone.

Hello,
We have a Choose "Your Own Device" policy in our company where users can purchase many devices from a catalogue (Android and iOS).
When employees leave the company, they return the device to IT where it is wiped and handed to the next user if device still has warranty.
Reason I mention that is because I don't want comments like "is it stolen" etc...
How to bypass the Google Account protection when doing a factory reset?
We don't own an OTG cable.
I have tried with the method using SideSync to open Google Chrome and download the APK that opens Settings.
Then, via the Samsung Apps installed a File Explorer to install the APK which actually brings me to settings where I can do a factory reset.
However, that doesn't work. I still get the Google protection after the reset.
Not even sure if it will work with an OTG cable as it would actually do the same thing.
Did anyone successfully bypass this on a Samsung?

Does this work for S8
I found my way passed this by dialing an emergency number from the emergency call dialer.
After dialing 112 swiping left gives you access to other features one of which is email.
Once you are into email messaging you can set up a legit email account and send an email.
From the email composition form you can attach things like documents and more importantly your current location to the email.
Once you attach your location you are prompted to confirm all of the location permission and taken to the gps menu and towards the bottom you will find a button for Google Location History.
Clicking this button brings you to an empty page with a 3 dot menu at the top right and from there you can view/manage location history, which opens your access to google maps.
From google maps go ahead and type in any destination as if you're navigating in your car , get directions and begin your journey.
Once you are enroute to your chosen destination hit the microphone at the top right and say "open google". This brings up the Google Search APP which allows access to settings -> security -> unknown sources -> back to Google Search App -> type in Chrome -> open browser -> search for "rootjunkysdl frp" -> install GoogleAccountManager6,apk -> install and open rootjunkysfrpbypass.apk -> 3 dot menu top right -> sign in with browser -> back to settings -> backup and reset -> set backup account -> back to setupWizard or reboot phone -> walk through setupwizard and account added / profit.
