Email with no Exchange policy? - Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps

I used to have a version of email.apk that would allow me to hook into my Exchange email but was hacked to not require a PIN even if it was supposed to. I searched and found a bunch of version for Froyo and Gingerbread and one version for 3.0. Is there a version of this for 3.2?

I am interested in this as well......any way of tweaking the stock email to get around the required pin?

Have you ever used it? Does it look like and work as well as the default email app?

I use Enhanced Mail on my devices (Phone/Tablet) for work emails/calendar.
The UI is not optimized for Tablet but nevertheless it works very well.
I synchronize email and calendar from Exchange and it all works well. Emails are pushed from the server when they arrive.

Moxier works well and is Tablet ready. Also has a PIN lock for the app itself instead of device lock.

I too use it as my primay email app, both for office email and gmail. When setting up exchange email it gives a option to not enable exchange policies. This helped me get rid of the PIN from unlocking the screen. I also like the unified mailbox in this app.

These apps are so expensive. I think I would rather just enter the pin in.

As a system admin of an exchange server personally I'd be annoyed that users were trying to circumvent security.
Although I don't know the full circumstances you're in, if you have a security policy in place its usually there for a reason. Depending on your workplaces IT policy (and how paranoid they are about data loss) you may also find that doing something like this is also a sackable offence.
I guess your major issue is having to enter an unlock code each time you want to use your device? As another poster has mentioned you can install an app which just uses the unlock code for the app rather than on your device. I personally use touchdown for exchange. It's got an HD version for tablets, works pretty well and doesn't cost that much.
Think there could still be some improvements to the tablet UI (the unlock screen is obviously a scaled up version of the phone version) but overall its worth it. I used to pretty much try to only use free software but have found its totally worth supporting devs by paying a few quid for a decent app.

My interest is in having one program that can handle all of my accounts. I have two gmail accounts, a ymail account, a verizon account, and my work account through exchange. I would like to use the stock program through the tablet (Transformer) but it does not have the security. I do not mind the pin, I would like suggestions on a program that would allow the pin and allow the other accounts.

Fyi. Enhanced email is the free app of the day at Amazon.

It's already been posted HERE. Please search before you post.

Um. Or I can post about it in this thread since Enhanced Email ended up being the answer to the question I posted and others with the same question who may have subscribed to this thread may want to know it's available. Sorry to say but just because you posted something doesn't mean others are not allowed to post the same thing in other threads especially when they are pertinent to the topic at hand.

Best e-mail app for Exchange-accounts on a rooted KF?

Since I have my KF rooted, I'd really like it to connect to my exchange e-mail. What is the best way to do this?

I'm using Enhanced Email from the Amazon Market. It works great with my Exchange Server 2003 SP2. Even brings in all contacts!
I second that, enhanced email is great. I'm running both hotmail and gmail as exchange setups.

Enhanced Email as well. I use it on my phone as well as my fire. Great support from the dev as well.

Touchdown. Most specifically if you have security on the server such as required passwords etc, the the app keeps those only on the app, not forced to the device as well.

Touchdown... been using it on my smartphones for years.
I've been using it on the Kindle Fire now for a couple weeks. they have a new beta version that works better with some of the new tablet stuff they have been adding.
Have used it in conjunction with MaaS360 as well.

Go get it while you can.
+1 for cerberus. It works really well
I think androidlost kills it
Sent from my SGH-T959V using Tapatalk 2
Ive used almost all of them. cerberus has been the best one yet. I can control all the devices connected with my license without having to swap gmail accounts. But each person is allowed their own opinion. So if you like androidlost kudos to you.
You can use one gmail for unlimited devices on androidlost
Sent from my SGH-T959V using Tapatalk 2
Are you sure? If the other devices use a different gmail address you have to log in with that email. Atleast that is what I had to do.
Looking at the guide page confirms it uses whatever gmail address is on the phone. I used this for a while until I bought cerberus, dont get me wrong it is nice but IMO not the same or better. I suggest it to anybody that wants a free tracking app.

Disable Email Security

Has anybody found a way to disable the email security with Microsoft Exchange on the Note 10.1? I tried installing Wanam xposed, but it wouldn't install. Really don't want to have a lock screen just because of my email.

Check out "enhanced email". Some mixed reviews but I like and will keep using it until my IT departments mobile iron implementation shuts me out.

Any client that uses Activesync will force you to accept your IT dept rules. Try Mobimail. This app uses Exchange Web Service which is not subject to the server restrictions. It is a phone style interface but it looks pretty respectable on a tablet. Only down side is it uses its own calendar so it won't integrate with Android calendar widgets. But it does its own calendar notifications so maybe not a big deal.

exchange email issue

Just recently got myself an N5 from an iP4s, all is going smoothly apart from exchange.
On the first sync after putting in all the log in details into the stock mail app for GoDaddy's server, it puts up a notification saying that it needs access to a lot of different things like PIN, auto delete, etc etc, if I decline, it won't sync, just wondered if this was normal, never had anything like on the iP4s, not that I'm saying thats a bad thing!
appreciate its not a N5 specific issue but anything help would be gratefully received
That's a normal issue, my work exchange email requires similar admin. privileges. I have to accept in order for it to sync.

Yep normal. Unlike iPhones, exchange admins can force PIN security on users. I like that

Which email app are you using?

Oddly, the Samsung email app is not pre-installed, and I don't want to get any more attached to Outlook, which I do use on PC. What about using Gmail app for other than Gmail accounts? I'm leaning toward installed the Samsung one, but any ideas or suggestions?
I recently went down this road after being dumped back into gmail from inbox.
I landed on blue mail. Very solid application and works flawlessly.

I just downloaded the Samsung Email app from the Galaxy Store. Works great for me.
I think I moved away from the samsung app in search of a dark theme. Also worked great though....and no ads like gmail.

What Semantics said x2. I'm a creature of habit, so I downloaded the stock Samsung Email app for my Pop3 accounts.
Thanks, all. I guess I'll just get the Samsung app. Thought I must surely be missing something that it was not there. On a Samsung phone after all!

Be careful. That Dev has a history of privacy concerns. I wouldn't touch that app with a 10 foot pole.
For exchange accounts, I use Nine. It's well worth the money to me, and as a one time purchase it's not even THAT expensive. It also allows me to deny my employer admin rights to my entire phone, just the actual app. Maildroid does this as well. If I wanted a free solution, Outlook, easily.

Used outlook app for a while but.... dark mode.
Nine I use for work, and have for years, but I wanted to keep that separate from personal stuff.

Last I heard the dev was a Russian guy in Brooklyn, NY. Who knows? There are a LOT more email apps out there that don't throw off red flags left and right.
When Google dropped Inbox I tried everything from Newton ( I'm not paying $50 for a year) Spark which iPhone people have been raving about but I was missing important emails while I would get notified for low priority emails.
I tried Blue and it was just OK and now I'm using the Gmail app. I'm not sure why they won't give us a dark mode, I feel like it's out of spite at this point.
I use the Samsung email app for work and it works well, I just don't like to mix work and personal emails on the same client.

Agreed. This is the route I went rather than resetting all my passwords. If anyone were to try and access google sends me an approval email anyhow.
