Tired of having to type in a password or PIN into your phone just because your Corporate Email account requires it? I know I am.
This modified Email.apk is for the Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, and will allow you to bypass the password, and possibly other exchange security policies, simply because, when it evaluates the policy to see if it is active, it always returns that it is. And so, when it checks to see if your PIN is active, it simply thinks it is, and continues to go about it's business as normal.
To install do the following:
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount rw /system
adb push Email.apk /system/app/Email.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/Email.odex
adb reboot
YMMV, I am not responsible if you get fired for circumventing your company's Exchange Policies.

You can also do this with Enhanced Email available in the market. I think it works on rooted and unrooted.

I picked Enhanced Email yesterday as free app of the day. Works great.
As for this not working did you delete your account and then remove Administration Password? If not PW stays on place.

I put in my phone number to purchase that free app and stupid Amazon simply sent me a link to download their Amazon App instead of the Enhanced Email.
Cool, but just an FYI.
If your company is using Good Mobile, you're best not to run this. Good looks for rooted/jailbroken devices and flags them/remote wipes/shuts them down.
If they're not running Good Mobile, then you're fine
just reboot your phone after the delete and re-install. It works great for me.
That sucks. Its so nice nit having to enter the code. However, I do agree with the earlier post that Stock app is better. Its nice to trigger out of office reply from my phone.

I am a GFE user with a rooted device and have not experienced this.
Perhaps it's a policy set by your GFE admin.
It would suck to not be able to root your phone.
I loaded the .apk onto my SD card and tried installing it via Astro file manager, but it keeps telling me 'application not installed'. Am I going about this the right way? Do I have to delete the original email.apk in order to install this one?

Correct, it's a policy that needs to be enabled on the server side. My company uses GFE and does not currently have a policy against jailbroken/rooted devices. I'm pretty sure it does make note of those "offending" devices though.

This is not true. If your company has a policy in place to do this through Good then sure, in your case it might be true. But certainly not in all cases.

I have developed One Click De-cripple to enable installation of non-market on the Captivate with one click. While many of you may be saying that Android Central's Sideload Wonder Machine already does this, my program will make a persistent change to enable non-market app installation without being attached to a computer. OCD was developed in Visual Studio 2010, therefore prerequisites will be that the USB drivers already be installed, that .NET 4.0 be installed, and the phone is already rooted. If you have not yet rooted your phone, I recommend "Samsung Galaxy S One Click Root" by TGA_Gunnman.
v1.0.0.2.
Changes:
Added PayPal Donate button. If you like my program, please donate to help finance my further development for the Captivate.

Wow... don't know how I missed that one. I'm sure my project is using a similar mechanism but is geared specifically for the Captivate and at this time requires that the phone already be rooted.
I used his program to root and allow non market apps yesterday. Worked great for me but alot of people had problems. So go for it maybe yours will be good for those people.

DB edit through shell isn't that difficult. and YES... another one. Apparently some people have been experiencing issues with rageagainstthecage which is what SuperOneClick relies on. OCD does not rely on this mechanism and is designed for your average person with little or no *nix, coding, or CLI skills to free their phone. Gripe all you want but I'm sure someone will find it useful.
And without further ado...
A big thank you. It worked where others failed. Totally worth it!
Does this work on Eclair, Froyo or both?
I'm already rooted and have OCLF installed but I assume that doesn't matter, right?

It wasn't a gripe, just an observation. Maybe a better alternative is for a campaign to get AT&T to uncripple the platform.
Anyway, good deal helping those that need it.

OCD was designed and tested for 2.1 Eclair but will likely work on 2.2 Froyo. My understanding is that the manual process to enable non-market apps on 2.2 is identical to 2.1. If you are running 2.2 and have tried OCD, please share your experience.

OCD should work with OCLF but has not been tested with it. OCD requires that the phone already be rooted so you are already half-way there.
Thanks dude, good work. I was tired of doing all that adb stuff !

Worked like a charm....

I've been using that on my Captivate for 7 or 8 months now, AT&T has never billed me. I'm not extravagant in my usage. The highest net data I've used is 4.5GB, but that's for both normal and tethered use. I've never been dinged.
I think if it becomes obvious, torrent or otherwise, then they may try to do something. But as far as I know, there is no way to distinguish the traffic of your phone from that of the connected devices.
My suggestion is try it for a small burst of data, note the time. Reboot your phone after. Then check your account online after a day or two and see whats listed under your data use.
You guys should try a custom apn similar to the captivate and atrix.

Ok... I tried this again after I posted the message. Something seems to have changed in my account. Now I get a "Verifying" message and then a note that says tethering is not available. My guess is that we'll have to replace the IP/Stack to not request verification information from AT&T.
So, sorry, no go yet.

in titaniumbackp if you are rooted freeze ir uninstall "tetheringmanager0326.apk" should unlock it. you can also delete it from adb, rootexplorer, other root file managers as long as you mount read write in terminal emulator, or you can use terminal emulator.
i have a linux machine and use sshdroid to ssh into the phone. that's another way to do it if you get a windows application that handles ssh.

not unless you're really lucky.
i'm not sure, but if you get yourself another android device, active latitude to display your location, i wonder if it would cause latitude on your tab (if you even have it) to start displaying it's location.
of course, this wholy depends on your tab having google latitude (included with google maps?), have gps access, and the theif haven't done a factory reset.
I don't need a signature.

I got it to see what the fuss is about, but couldn't agree more with the other statements in this thread, in my opinion, it's too little too late, had it have been before the advent of whatsapp and the like, perhaps it may have been relevant. But now, a service like bbm holds no weight when there's already a few, well established multi-platform services that do the same thing.

Sorry I meant if you had shell shock on your phone will it help?
ShellShock is not itself a Trojan or virus, it is just a vulnerability in the BAsh shell. When you feed bash startup commands remotely, you can get those input parameters immediately executed as native programs due to an error in bash logic for validating input.
For this to be remotely exploitable, you have to have a bash shell set up to listen on an active socket. Not likely you are using bash for something like running a webserver on your phone...an attacker has to somehow be able to initiate a bash shell on your device while feeding it a maliciously crafted parameter string. If that can be done, the attacker can run anything on your device, including fetching and running remote executables with that bash shell's privileges.
If your device's bash has been properly patched, then your device is not vulnerable. If it has been already hacked, whatever was installed during the hack is still there though. Time to re-image to factory in that case, and start over.

Thanks Trent yea I ran a zip to reimage then flashed CyanogenMod. That I think patched bash. Just my worry is my ram is being weird going up like 75%. I know my gmail got hacked so changed my password. As someone redeemed a credit .I had my issue is the ram to lead me believe something is running. I have an Asus router password protected. My phone tried to run a different weird server but I got back on my after cheetah mobile shellshock. My concern is the increasing ram like something is running.
What the hell is shell shock. Something to worry about? Have an OPO not sure if its a problem etc...
